I've been trying to print to the HP PSC 1610 down the hall which is connected to an iMac (running OS 9.1) via USB. Problem is, my computer is running Tiger and can't seem to find this printer. In the Mac OS 9 USB Printer Sharing control panel I've made sure that printer sharing is on, and it is sharing the HP 1610. However, the printer doesn't even show up in my Mac OS X Printer Setup Utility. Any thoughts?

Well, it does, after grueling manual configuration.
