Hi there,

I have Virtual PC 6 running Windows 98 on Mac OS 9.2 and also on Mac OSX 10.2.6.

I'm a Mac guy, not a PC guy, and I'm looking for help to set up printing to network printers. The printer's are HP 2100's.

Is there a good resource guide for a dummy like me that someone knows of? Maybe you are doing it where you work and already know how to get this going?

I could purchase a USB printer and hook it up directly to the Mac and use Simple Printing but it would be great to print to the network printers.

I'm talking to myself here... Before I go out and buy a USB printer SOLEY for the purpose of being able to print from a Mac using Virtual PC I'll ask the question one more time:

Can ANYBODY give me an informed answer about being able to print from a Mac using Virtual PC, over a Mac network, to a HP network printer?

Check deja.com for help on this. It shouldn't be any different than a Windows machine trying to print to an Appletalk printer.
