    trying to access a printer on wife's imac. I go into the settings menu and click on printer. Add printer. In the workgroup it shows a mac address. I click on it enter username and password but when I click verify it says this print share is not accessible. What is it saying?
    I can access it via another mac.

    The work-around I found is to install a bonjour client on my aspire. Running my mac, I tell the aspire to print to the mac's bonjour printer. It sends the file to my mac and the mac then prints wirelessly back to my printer. Works like a hot damned!
