I have my Powerbook G4 with Airport connected (wireless) to a SMC Barricade (SMC7004VWBR) router. I also have a Dual 800 cabled directly to the router, and a Laserwriter 4/600 connected with a Farallon iPrint Appletalk-Ethernet adapter. I can print to the Laserwriter with a computer cabled directly to the router, but the Powerbook can't see the printer. The wireless connection works fine otherwise. The SMC website says that the router supports Appletalk after a firmware upgrade, which I've done, but that didn't help. Any ideas why printing doesn't work? Thanks for any ideas!

Check your Network pref pane. Make sure AppleTalk is activated on Airport. It can only be on on one connection, AppleTalk or ethernet.
Does Print Center not see the printer?
