Printing from Tiger to a shared Windows printer
As a Tiger-friendly addendum to these fine instructions for printing from an OS X machine to a shared Windows printer (our 2K3 server is always on, while the Macs are sometimes asleep), one must do the following to add a printer:
- Select the Printer Setup Utility in Applications — Utilities.
- Click on the Add button in the toolbar.
- Click on the More Printers… button at the bottom of the dialog.
- On the top drop down, select Windows Printing. The other dropdown will vary depending on your network (I picked Workgroup), and then pick out your server and printer from the list. A printer model of Generic seems to work fine.
