Here's my problem:
I'm using a Linksys WPS11 wireless print server with an HP Laserjet 4500 printer.
It is configured to print wirelessly from my PC and my iMac.
It prints just fine from my PC but I'm having stability problems printing from the iMac with OS X 10.2.6.

In PrintCenter I go to add an IP printer, put in the IP address of the print server, the correct queue # and choose the laserjet 4500 from the printer list.

If I shut down the printer and then power it up with the new settings it prints fine from the iMac, once I finish a job if I go back later to print something the printer will start up but instead of printing I get a message from the printer "data received", but nothing prints.

Does anyone have any idea at all what could be wrong? It's very frustrating because I know the printserver is being found since the printer will start up and I have been able to print intermintently.
