I've just set up a wireless network. It has a Linksys wireless-g router, at the centre connected to a cable modem, and a linksys wireless printserver connected via USB to an epson stylus cx5400 printer. A pc with a wireless-g notebook adapter and a mac g4 powerbook are also on the network. Everthing works except I cannot get the mac to print through the printserver. I cannot get a printserver driver from the CD-rom even though it purports to be there. However when using the mac to set up a printer wirelessly it sees both ports on the server. Is my problem just the driver? If so, any Idea where i can find one and how and where I load it? Assuming that comes to pass what do I do then?

I DID IT! Just needed the latest driver plus CUPS and the Latest version of something rather poeticly called "gimp print" to enable the printing info to go through the server. Top stuff. Gimp print have their own website where these things can be down loaded.
