Just received my dual powermac G5/2.5Ghz, on which I installed tiger (erasing everything).
I have moved all the stuff from my G4 tower and enjoyed Tiger right away without a glitch, great!
Until... I decided to network my old G4 tower.
A direct Ethernet link between the G5 and the G4 works great, printing and all, but as soon as I connect the G4 to my Speed Touch Alcatel ADSL modem (4 ports), I can no longer print on the epson hooked up to the G5.
Both computer see each other, file transfer between the two is fast, but no printing.
When trying to print, the drop down menu shows the shared printer as "Epson Stylus color@my name's power mac g5" and after that nothings happen.
Going nowhere, I finally decided to update the G4 to tiger too, hopping that would solve the problem and ended up with the same issue
I've been reading a lot about printing issues on the apple suppprt site, but nothing really addresse this specific problem.
Has a anybody experienced this, help please !
