Hi. I have a few questions regaurding my PC. Before we begin let me post my specs.

Blue and White Power Mac G3
G3 300MHz Processor
256MB Ram
Original Apple CD Drive
OS 10.3.5 (will soon upgrade to 10.3.9)


The first question I have is about my printer. I have an HP Deskjet 3847 USB printer. When I plug it in it does not recognize it. Is there a driver or some way to make it work on my mac (it came with drivers but I am pretty sure they are for XP)

Also, I have a WUSB11 linksys usb box to connect to the internet wirelessly. Can I get this working with OS X? If not, where can I buy a cheap airport card that works with my PC?

3. I don't have the internet yet, because I do not have an ethernet cord where I have my mac. Is it possible to connect my mac to my network with 3 other PCs to transfer files?

4. I have a HP Pavilion ZV6000 laptop that I would like to ICS with the mac. The laptop is using wireless internet and has an ethernet plug-in in the back. How can I make them share a connection?

5. Can I network a printer connected to a PC on my mac?


Thanks for looking! Reply if possible.

Please use the proper forums, Networking for all your networking questions and Peripherals for your questions about the printer.

Closing …
