| Post subject: | Bonjour Wireless Printing in Windows 7 |
At home, we've got an Airport Extreme set up to share the printer between the 3 wireless computers and the one wired computer. On my Mac, and my sister's Vista laptop, all has been sweet and easy. Install one Bonjour printer assistant, ah there's the printer, add printer, done. On my nephews Windows 7 laptop, however, it's just not seeing the printer, and I can't see why it shouldn't be. Everyone else on the wifi network can. Any clues? |

You'll probably need to map the printer using the Ip address of the airport |

Cool, I had a try mapping it via the 'Add Printers' panel, and giving it 10.0.1.1. as the address, which gave it a port of 10.0.1.1_1. Didn't work. So I guess the IP address isn't right... |

You may need to add a printer, don't pnp, add a local port with the IP of the airport then install the driver (although you may have done that). Failing that plonk the disk in that came with the airport (or download the airport utility) as it should map it for you that way. |
