Well, i did a search for this topic but never found any sound conclusions. I just bought a new 12" PowerBook and picked up the Airport Extreme base station with it. On the Airport web page that Apple has, it says that the 777i Epson printer is supported by wireless USB printing from the base station. When i went through the procedure to set up the printer though, I came to a major problem. When i select Rendezvous under the printer connections the airport station does detect and list my printer, but says that the drivers are not installed. Of course the printer works when connected directly with a USB cable. SO what should I be doing? Epson says that they do not support this and that I would have to try to call Apple about it. Just wondering if someone can save me a phone call. Thanks!

Re-installing what? The drivers for the printer were built into OS X. I didn't have to install a thing to make it work in the first place through USB. And from everything that I've read from Apple it doesn't seem like I should have to install anything. Where would I find something else to install anyways? Epson's site didn't show anything new from what is installed by Panther.
