I have my Lexmark connected to my Airport BS. I'm trying to print with it, and the PB knows it's the Right Lexmark, but takes an extraordinary amount of time saying "ready to print." in the end, it doesn't print... or i don't let it go long enough... which is at least a few minutes.

Am i missing something? Is there a step I forgot? I know the printer is compatible with OS X..is it possible it won't work with Airport?

also, only Mac OS X computers can use a printer connected thru an airport. A OS 9 or PC person is totally screwed.

This is because it uses the Rendevorous (however you spell it) technology.
