I once again need some help. I am using 2 Pismos etherneted to a G4 QS with shared printing. I am using 10.3.9 and the 2 printers are connected to the G4.

Problem is when I try to print from either Pismo the printer utility (Epson 820) gives the message

unable to lookup host 'admins-computer.local'-un

I run the G4 under user name admin so I assume that is the reference to admins, however I can print from the G4 without any problems. I switched to a different user account with same result. That is, it would print from G4 but same message on both Pismos. The ethernet connection seems OK at least networking and internet work as usual.

This is a new development even tho I have always had some difficulty getting shared printing to work consistently. I don't think I have changed anything. My only thought is to reinstall the printer software CD but don't see how that could make a difference. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
