I recently tried to connect my PowerBook G4 (2.1) to
a printer on a PC network. Despite trying almost
every combination of parameters in the Printer Setup
Utility, the effort was a dismal failure.

Maybe I messed up some vital settings. Now I am
having great problems using USB printers that
previously worked well. At one location, the Lexmark
Z42 will print the test page from the Setup Utility, but
always returns "printer not responding" when told to
print a document. At another location, the Epson
Stylus Color 440 will print one document only, then
gives "printer not responding" until I do a restart.

Any suggestions please?
