Hello, i just started a new job and here in the office they use a Windows ME machine as a printserver (all other folks are Windows-only). I cannot connect to the machine nor can i use the connected HP deskjet 5652 printer. When i search for servers using the "connect to server" dialogue, nothing is detected. I use a Tibook running OS 10.1.5. The only network protocol installed on the windows box is TCP/IP. Will the installation of NetBIOS and/or IP/X on the windows box enable me to use the printer (like the network admin suggested)?
