Hey all,

I have an interesting situation. here is the network/printer layout. an iMac with an HP printer attached via USB, and then shared. a Ti with no printers attached, and an airport extreme basestation with a GCC network printer attached that both iMac and Ti can see. and the Ti can print to the HP fine. here's where it gets weird. once in a while the GCC will choke, and if you open print center on Ti, the list of both printers, shows the GCC printing queue as stopped. but you cannot start up the queue from the Ti, you MUST walk to the iMac and use it's print center to start it up again. once it's up though, it's works as normal. i turned printer sharing on for BOTH since i thought that might have been a problem, but no fix. how do i work around this so that both the iMac and the Ti have control over the GCC print queue? the HP works fine :-)

You might check that your AXBS firmware is up-to-date, as well as your system software.
