Hi I just got my new pb and set up a printer via windows printing. it found the printer, but when i send something to it it prints alot of crazy text  instead of my graphic work. It's a epson c 82 on a dell xp machine via wireless network can anyone help?

did you have to use gimp and cups - or are there easier, GUI-based things built into Panther that handle this chore...
reason I am asking is that I am soon to be a PowerBook 15" owner (I think) and I have a Dell running XP with an HP printer hanging off of it that I want to be able to print to (via Wireless LAN magic)...
thanks,
BrewSkij

just did it through the printer setup and chose "windows printing" and the windows system the printer was hooked to showed up under workgroup MSHome. but it did not work properly till a couple reboots. But works now. was all fairly easy and was GUi driven

Roy Boy, did you have your printer settings set to generic postscript? I pretty much have the same setup as you but with a canon i450 and i have not been able to get it to work using windows printing. I've even called Apple and they can't solve the problem.
