Cannot see my imac to a shared printer for PC

I have a problem with my Imac networking it to a shared printer that is mac compatible. I have an okiB4350 model and have this networked through a router and a printer server. I have a D-Link router. I have 4 other PC computers that is able to see this printer through the router by the PC IP Address I have assigned to it. However, with my Imac, I cannot seem to get through the printer. I was able, at one point, go through the set up on the imac and typed the PC IP Address to where the imac sees it. However, when I have the imac print stuff, all it prints are garbage. My print server also has an IP for mac which I tried using as I input it on the set up screen of my imac. However, it does not see it. The imac does see the printer and assigns it as a postcript printer but when it prints, all it prints are garbage. Someone please help me connect this imac to my existing shared printer so that I can fully maximize the use on this imac.
Thanks,

Postscript is apparently an option for the B4350 - does yours have this capability built in? From your description of symptoms it does not - the garbage you see printed out is raw Postscript code, and that wouldn't happen if the printer was actually able to interpret that code.
Try setting up this printer using the "LaserJet 6 series Gimp-Print" driver built into MacOS 10.4.

I cannot see as installed the Acrobat Distriller Printer? (Acrobat X)

Hello
In my list of printers, I cannot see the Adobe Acrobat X distriller printer as installed in my computer.
I have Adobe Acrobat Distriller X installed in my computer along with Adobe Acrobat X... however, when I go to control panel, and I select printers... I cannot see the Adobe PDF printer there.
I think the cause of this is that I installed a program called NITROPDF, and this program, managed to remove the Adobe Acrobat Distriller X printer, to install its own printer.
Now, in my list of printers, I can see the NITRO PDF Creator (which is the printer to print documents as PDF, that offers NitroPDF).
However, I cannot see in my list of printers the Adobe Acrobat Distriller X printer.
How may I do this printer be installed and available in my list of printers?
Thanks

The problem was solved. The update, corrected the issue and now I see the printer again
THANKS A LOT !!!

I cannot see photos in iCloud Photo Sharing

I have shared album on iCloud, but invited members can only see photos from the point in time they accepted the invitation.
For example:
Day 1: Album created, Photo A, B, C added.
Day 2: Person X added. Cannot see photo A, B or C.
Day 3: Person X adds Photo D,E,F. Person Y added.
Day 4: Person X cannot see photo A, B or C, but can see Photo D,E,F. Person Y cannot see any photos.
Day 5: Person Z added. Person X adds Photo G,H,J. Person Y adds photos K,L,M.
Day 6: Person X can see photos D - M. Person Y can see photos G - M. Person Z cannot see any photos.
Hope that helps? Basically once a person is added to a shared album, they cannot see any of the previous photos. Making the shared album a bit pointless if it is holiday photos? I'd have to add the people first then add the photos, and if someone has gone out to buy an iPad for this purpose, its a bit unfortunate now that they can't see the photos because they didn't have an iOS at the time the album was cr

You're welcome

ITunes cannot see data in the MyBookLive shared drive, but it's there

I have iTunes on a Mac OS X 10.6 and the 2TB MBL. I transferred 40G of music from local drives to my MBL successfully. I can see those in Finder - Public - Shared Music. I enabled the Public Share to be "ALL" for media sharing. I can see the MBL in the SHARED options in iTunes, then when I click on it, or double click on it, I only see the 3 default playlists - Movies, Music, and TV. There are no files in any of them. I have iTunes Enabled in the MBL Settings - Media. I then rebootedthe MBL then rebooted the Mac, and still no luck.
The WD goons think this is an apple issue. Please help.

PC's cannot see my iMac on a Windows network

Hi. I am on a uni campus network. I can see everyone's computers (almost exclusively they are pc's) but no one can see me.
However, when I use Shakespeer to connect to a P2P sort of network made of the same computers (ie, the uni doesn't know about it) everyone can see me fine.
So how do I set things up so people can see me on the normal network?
Pretty sure we use a proxy.
If that makes sense...
Thanks.

Okay,
a) can you test if any of the windows pcs can connect to your Imac via the follwoing method:
1. Right click on Network on the windows desktop and choose "Connect network drive" (or similiar)
2. Enter \\youripaddress\yourusername in the first line and press connect.
you should be asked for password and user and then there should be a connection to your mac...
b) check your workgroup setting via /Applications/Utilities/DirectoryServices -> SMB/CIFS settings

I cannot get my iMac to find my printer. Both are on and connected but still cannot print.

I have an iMac and use it with an HP wireless printer. Both iMac and printer are connected however everytime I hit print my print queue says the printer is not connected. Have restarted both and retyped wireless key into printer to no avail.

Restart your router and try to print after

I cannot see my iMac on the network.

This is a new problem as I have been able to share files before and I don't believe that anything has changed in my setup. File sharing is on and I have tried with and without firewall. I have also tried turning things on and off again, and re-detecting the network. No joy. It is set to share files and folders using SMB or AFP in preferences. Any ideas please?

and another thing. The iMac won't connect to my ipad when I try to connect to server that way round. It almost feels as if they don't believe they are on the same netwrok, but they are!

When maximized, I cannot see the bottom part of the window, for example, i can't see the "down arrow" on scroll bar on the right side. Is there a way to fix it?

This also means that i can't really see the website address when i hover over a hyperlink.

It is probably broken. You can try restoring it using Recovery Mode, but if that fails its time for a new phone. After all, it is 4 generations out of date. See: Recovery Mode

Cannot see where or how to download Firefox for Windows

HT4191 I can sync Outlook notes through iTunes to iPad and iTouch but not iPhone3GS. I cannot see "Sync notes with Outlook" under info for iPhone but the other two work fine. Same settings on all !!! What do to next ??

I have iPad3, iPhone3GS and iTouch all set up with latest software. I sync with a Sony VAIO and the sync is fine and complete with the iPad and iTouch. The iPhone refuses to allow syncing of Outlook Notes from laptop to iPhone. On both other devices the sync of Outlook Notes and everything else works fine. I have follwed other blog suggestions and erased/added accounts, checked that there are not any Notes with no data or headings and all the other ideas but to no avail. The difficulty is only with Notes syncing to the iPhone, works fine with iPad and iTouch.
What do I do next ?

The apple store fixed it for me. They basically said I had too many "calendar" sources checked. They eliminated all but the calendar "from my PC". When I open the iPhone calendar, and click on the upper left calendar button, only one calendar shows up (from my PC). iCloud calendar is off, google calendar off, etc.

Shared printing on 10.3.9 iMac from MBP with 10.5.5 (worked then not!)

Panther 10.3.9 on iMac (Host with HP PS C3180 for shared printer attached via USB) - Leopard 10.5.5 cannot find the shared printer after it was already working for 3 weeks. Shared printer in Leopard disappeared. When attempting to reinstall the shared printer on the MacBook with Leopard it cannot find the shared printer. (At ALL). Have, reset printers (in Leopard), executed Article: HT2275, turned off firewall, on both machines and wireless router, reset both computers and router. Have 4 hours into finding the solution without success. iMac sees the printer when attached to MacBook but cannot print to it. PowerBook will not see the shared printer on the iMac and of course the shared printer function is enabled on the iMac. Any ideas? Jobs hire some of Gates old windows programmers to do Leopard print sharing? HELP!

Hi there,
It is unusual that you still cannot see the 10.3.9 shared printer after changing to the cups browsing protocol (as per HT2275). Is there any chance that you run the Reset printing system after making this change, as this will reset the browsing protocol to Bonjour.
I would also check that the MacBook Pro can see the iMac. If you look at the Shared section of the Finder sidebar on 10.5, does the iMac appear in this view?

After upgrading to Yosemite I cannot see my other iMac at home (note I am at work) in the Finder window shared devices. Note my iMac at home is connected to an airport extreme (as is my work iMac) and I can see both airport extreme.

Aftger I upgraded to Yosemite I cannot see my iMac at home from my work (i.e in Finder window under shared devices). Note both my work and home iMac are connected to time capsules and I can see both of those time capsules but I cannot see either iMac from the other location. My guess is that the time capsule is blocking the connection to the iMac. One last comment occasionally (5% of the time) my iMac does magically appear in the shared Finder window but this is extremely rare. Any help????

Just discovered this one myself. OK, this may sound silly but place your cursor next to the word "Shared" on the finder sidebar. The "hidden" command "Show" will magically appear. Clicking that will display your other network attached devices.
This appears to be a new "feature" that some freaking genius thought was some how "Cool". My only assumption is that Apple programers expect users to randomly move their cursor around the screen in hopes of finding some critical function like looking for an easter egg in their favorite game.

Can't print to a shared printer on 10.6.8 iMac from Windows 7 iMac

I am creating another discussion as I made some changes and hoping PAHU-san will be able to solve this problem. I am using a Mac OSX 10.6.8 iMac and Windows7 iMac. I installed the driver Canon LBP6750 UFRII on each machine and both can print. However, printing from Windows 7 iMac to a shared printer on the Mac OSX 10.6.8 does not print anything and has no errors.
Here are some logs. If you need additional information, please let me know.

PAHU, Thank you for looking into this. I have been working on this for a long time, and hoping that purchasing these two Canon printers are not a mistake. My iMac 10.6.8 is not directly connected to a printer by USB, but through protocol IPP (I have also tested with HP Jetdirect). I am doing this because I would like the iMac 10.6.8 to be a print server and have client machines (iMac 10.6.8 clients and iMac Windows 7) print through the print server. I have tried the following on the iMac 10.6.8 and have the following errors
1. Generic PostScript - prints out strange characters and prints forever
2. Generic PCL Laser -
