Probably something simple, but this one has me baffled. Here's the setup: G3-upgraded 6400 and Rev C iMac (266), both running OS 9.1. Epson Stylus 580 USB printer attached to the iMac. I recently switched from a wired ethernet network to wireless when I moved a couple weeks ago. The wireless network is via a Belkin router and a Belkin wireless USB adapter for the iMac (the 6400 is wired through the router).
On the wired network, with USB printer sharing enabled, I could print from the 6400 to the iMac's Epson with no problem. However, I cannot get it to work with the wireless solution. I've double and triple checked all the settings, downloaded and installed new Epson drivers on both machines, switched the printer among both USB ports as well as a powered hub, all to no avail. Background printing is enabled. However, the 6400 can obviously "see" the Epson; I can use the printer utilities, head cleaning and so forth remotely with no problem. But when I try to print a page -- from any application -- I get that Epson "connection failed" error box. The other wireless networking functions work fine. Both machines can see each other, file sharing works normally and both share a cable modem with no problem. Could this be related to the router settings? If so, where do I start looking? Any other ideas? Thanks... -- Brian -- MacNetwork is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... XRouter Pro | Share your DSL or cable modem between multiple computers!
