Seeing Windows Printers on a Network

Color me frustrated. We were using OS 10.4 with no problems and I had the brilliant idea to change over to 10.5. The first computer I installed had the fated Blue Screen on restart. Well, off to the local electronic store for Firewire so I could hook up my laptop to remove the offending files. That accomplished I installed on a second computer. To my surprise it went okay. Now let's try to print to one of our Windows based RIP's and printer. What!!! No printer is listed in my printers list for this machine. All the other printers on the network are there but not this one. Now why would it get rid of the windows printer but not the others? I call my tech support for this printer. I get the usual, let me find someone that knows more about Macs. Of course I have to call back twice with the same response every time and no return phone call. I call the guy that wrote the software for this RIP (he was foolish enough to give me his number the last time I had a problem). He tried to run through all the possibilities but was busy with a large project and asked if I could check on Apples web site for answers. Well, here I am, hat in hand. Does anyone know what I can do? We had no problem before the new OS. In fact we still had one computer running the old 10.4 OS and it can see the Windows machine just fine. It must be in the new OS. And yes, I did check Epson's (the printer in question) web site and downloaded the correct driver. At least according the them it was correct. It just does not show up in the Windows/workgroup panel of my printers.
So there you have it all you eggheads out there. It seems all the so called experts I have asked cannot tell me anything. Who is man/woman enough to tackle this complex issue. Any Apple experts lurking in the shadows? Afraid to come out into the light of day and confess your sins?
HEEELLLLPPPPP!

OK then you haveto set it up the way I had to. Go to add printer if it is not there add advanced to the toolbar. Click advanced then type and choose windows. uou will see smb:// type in the windows server name then / then the printer name. You can the gice the printer a name the location if you want. Lastly you must choose a printer driver. There are alot of networking bugs in leapord and I hope they get them woorked out in 10.5.2.

  • Stop iMac from seeing Windows machines on wireless network

    Here's a conundrum!
    Brand new iMacs from 10.5.8 - all see Windows XP machines in the shared panel on the finder windows. We need to turn this off as the new macs are on a school network. They need to be on the wireless for internet, but they can't see the office machines for obvious reasons. The sharing is turned off on the Macs and Bonjour is disabled on the windows machines so why can we still see and access the windows computers. Can anyone tell me how to stop our macs seeing the windows machines. The
    windows machines still need to be on the network btw as the office needs to have the two windows machines connected to each other. The macs dont need to see any computers so how do i turn it off.

    Our solution was to have a separate students' network with its own wireless hubs.
    In our school we have a server configured to keep the office and the students' networks separate.
    We then have wireless hubs for students and wireless hubs for staff.
    In this way the computers are not on the same network, and this should also make it more difficult.
    for students to hack into admin computers.
    You should be thankful that this iMac made you realized how vulnerable your networked XP computers actually are, and that, at this point, they are still visible to hackers.

  • Finding Windows printers on the network?

    If I know the DNS name (or IP address) of a Windows print server on my network is there a command line tool (or tools) that will allow me to query it for information about the printers it serves.... such as printer names and their IP addresses?
    Thanks for any pointers you can provide,
    Steve

    Bump...
    I made a little headway on this so I'm hoping someone can help me get a little further down the road. I've figured out that this command:
    smbutil view //myUserID@SomePrintServer
    will prompt me for my password and then spit out a list of "resources" available on the print server. The list of information includes the print queue names and a short description of each printer.
    Can anyone tell me, once I've got the name of one of these print queues, if there is any additional command line utility that will allow me to query some more information about that particular print queue... specifically the IP address of the actual printer?
    Apparently if a Windows user set themselves up to print to one of these print queues and then views the properties of the printer they can see the IP address... so I know the information is available under certain circumstances.

  • Can no longer see shared printers on my network

    My son has a MacBook Air running Mountain Lion. I have an iMac and a Mac Mini on our home network. When my son got his laptop at Christmas time, he could see all the other macs in his finder. He could also connect to both of them. On the Mini, I have a laser printer that he used to be able to print to. Recently he can no longer print to the printer and can't connect to the other macs. The show up in Finder, but when you click on them it says "Connnecting" but never connects. Eventually it gives up and the other computes no longer show up in Finder. When I try to add a printer, no printers show up.
    Any ideas? I am running Snow Leopard on the wired computers. This was working. Nothing has really changed. Is there a way to try using an IP address to connect to the printer? I can't figure out why this is no longer working.
    Thanks

  • CoExistence in a Windows World - OSX SL Not Seeing Windows Network

    This will be a challenging post, I suspect.
    OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3: Finder is unable to see the windows network to which it is attached. Conversely, the windows network sees my iMAC and it's little sister (my wife's Mac Book Pro) just fine and dandy.
    The Windows workstations have no trouble connecting to the MACs, and the MACs have no problem connecting to the PCs (SMB://ipaddress or machine name)
    So why then can I simply not use Finder>Go>Network and see all the PCs and MACs on my network? Applecare couldn't help with this either, except to recommend a reinstall of OSX. Seems silly, because the iMAC is three days old, so nothing has been added! (Yet...)
    Here's the setup:
    Home Network, all rooms homerun with cat5e wired to structured media closet in basement housing nice cisco gig-e switch uplinked to Motorola Router to cable provider.
    5 Windows PCs + Server (3 kids w/win7, Laptop w/win7, server w/linux, and Mediahub) and 2 new MACs.
    Both MACs have same problem, can't see windows network, but can attach to shares and can be browsed from PCs Network (Neighborhood).
    MACs - Firewall off, Shares On (File, Screen, DVD), DHCP Leases from Server, WINS and DNS entries correct, Workgroup Membership correct)
    Me... STUMPED...

    Is this helpful: Set Up Your Home Network, Windows 7 Edition - PC World? The following is for Leopard, but you may find it applies reasonably well to SL:
    Simple guide to Leopard/Windows Home Networking
    Written by Intercepter121 and originally posted on the Apple Discussions here.
    If your network complies to the minimum requirements described below you should be able to share resources without any need to enter commands in the terminal to modify configuration files in your mac.
    Requirements
    1. A decent router
    2. Mac Os x 10.5.1 installed on your macs
    3. Windows XP or Vista
    4. Number of network devices <10
    5. Some network printers or drives (NAS)
    6. A decent ISP offering a good DNS service
    General Settings
    If your router offers DHCP and any of the device has power saving features there is a risk that the IP addresses are renewed. This can be problematic as the devices keep changing IP addresses. As this is your network is strongly recommended to reserve IP addresses to the MAC (Machine Address Code) of the various devices so that they can power on and off and still keep the same IP.This simple suggestion will greatly improve the browsing of the local network.
    Accessing Windows Resources from Leopard with no authentication
    Windows
    1. Check the settings of the PC and ensure the IP addresses on the local LAN are trusted
    2. Activate sharing on the desired devices ensuring the shares are read and write. If you use Vista ensure password protected sharing is disabled.
    3. Try to access the windows share from another windows computer if available to confirm no authentication is required
    MAC
    1. Go into system preferences->security-Firewall check that the setting is not on allow only essential services. Recommended settings is allow access to specific
    2. Go back into system preferences network. On the tab location click edit locations. Duplicate Automatic and call the new location Home. Now select the Home location and go into Advanced-WINS. In the workgroup field enter the same value that is on the other windows computers for example HOME. Now press enter then go back to the main screen. Select Edit locations and delete the location automatic. Now edit your location Home and rename it Automatic. This workaround is a leopard bug described here.
    3. Give 5 minutes to allow all the other machines to broadcast their IP address and the other computers should appear on the left side of your finder window. You can now select the shares you want to connect. As no authentication is active if you are prompted with a user name just press OK.
    The procedure to access a NAS is the same as above, just ensure permissions are set to files are read/write for anyone to avoid confusion.
    NOTE: There is no need to activate SMB sharing if you don't want to allow the PC to read folders on your MAC
    Troubleshooting
    After you have followed all the steps you don't see any windows PC.
    Identify the IP address of the machine you want to connect. In finder select Option+K and enter SMB://IPADDRESS. If you can connect you have a name resolution problem. Go into your router configuration and ensure that the option DNS assigned by ISP is selected and you don't have services like Open DNS in use and fixed IP addresses in that field. Apply the changes and reboot the router. You should start seeing windows PC in finder shortly after.
    Your ISP DNS service is poor and you must use Open DNS or similar
    If you are forced to use services like open dns you have the risk that the router propagates the DNS servers to your machines. As the implementation of SAMBA in Leopard effectively blocks the MAC to be a master browser for performance reasons you end in a situation in which tiger machines connect and leopard ones don't see a single share. Let's fix it.
    1. Go into System Preferences->Network then advanced DNS if you see here the IP addresses of the open dns servers this is the case. Unfortunately you will be forced to change the hosts file.
    2.Ensure you have reserved IP addresses to all your machines so that they always get the same IP.
    3. Now login into your mac as administrator and go into utilities=>terminal.
    4. Issue the following command sudo pico /etc/hosts
    5. Now scroll down and enter all the IP addresses and computer names of any device you want to browse
    6. Reboot your MAC
    The windows devices will now appear in finder and you will be able to connect with Option+K.
    You cannot access shares even entering the IP address
    You have not reserved IP addresses to each machine. Go into your router LAN set up and make sure that is the case.
    Accessing Leopard resources from Windows
    1. Go into system preferences->security-Firewall check that the setting is not on allow only essential services. Recommended settings is allow access to specific
    2. Go into System preferences->accounts and click on Guest flag the option Enable guest account to access shared folders
    3. Now into System preferences->sharing select file sharing and then options here flag SMB and select the user that has to be logged into the computer when the share has to be accessed. Ensure that the folder you want to share has read/write or whatever permissions you like it to have set for Everyone
    You should now be able to see your MAC in the windows network resources and access the shared folder with a double click without any password request.
    Troubleshooting
    You don't see any MACs from Windows
    Check the firewall settings at the start of this post. Then go back to the Network configuration hit advanced and then TCPIP check is using DHCP and not a fixed address. Then check the sharing is set as above with SMB clicked. If SMB is not set you won't even see your mac from windows.
    You see the MAC and the shared folders but you can't read or write on it
    Ensure you have set the guest account to access shared folders. Then check on the sharing preferences that there is at least one folder with read permission for everyone. The classic case here is Dropbox that leopard sets as read and write for the user of the MAC but no access for other users. You try to click on drop box and receive an error but when you actually try to write a file you can do it. Check the permissions on the subfolders of the share as those permissions will prevail on the home shared folders
    FAQ
    You may want to do more complicated things, but first ensure you can actually share files without security in place so you can identify the root cause of your possible problems
    I want to password protect my windows shares: once you have done the relative set up in windows vista and ensured you can connect from another windows machine you will need to use user name and password of the Vista user to connect.
    I want to password protect my MAC shared folders: Go into user account and disable guest access to shared folders is no shared folder has to be accessed without password otherwise leave it checked. Create a new user for sharing (better than giving away your password) so that this user only accesses the folders you want to share. In System preferences network select file sharing SMB and flag only the new user you have defined. Then go back to the folder section and set the permissions you like on the folder you want to share for this newly defined user.
    Good Luck
    Last suggestion: Select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "windows." There are numerous help articles. You can find the same articles at support.apple.com and searching for "windows network." Then narrow the product to Mac OS 10.6.

  • Networked Macs see Windows server, but suddenly not the internet

    My girlfriend works at a small business running about 10 PCs and a Windows server. Also on the network are about 15 VOIP telephones. She's had an emac on the network working fine for a few months. It was connecting to the server and the to the internet. Then one day, no more internet. (None of the PCs are experiencing this problem.) Coincidentally, the next day a new Mini arrived. We set it up (to 10.4.3) and it saw the server, it saw the internet. Everything was beautiful and then poof. No more internet. It was working when she left work, it even received POP mail between her leaving last night and coming in this morning.
    (I don't think this is the culprit, but it's worth mentioning that first thing this morning, she installed Microsoft Office. After she installed Office, the internet no longer worked. She didn't check her internet connection before installing the new software, but I suspect this is not a related issue. The emac does not have Office installed at all.)
    The macs have been restarted and put to sleep and then woken up. All of the PCs get their internet connection after routing through the VOIP phones and so do the macs. We've taken the phone out of the equation, but still no luck.
    Sorry this is such a vague description of the problem, but I don't know so much about inter-platform networking, so I'm not sure what to look for. And I don't know anything about TCP/IP or other networking protocols, so if there are any clues in the packets, I wouldn't see them. The most puzzling thing here is that it was working fine, and after seemingly nothing has changed, now it's not.
      Mac OS X (10.4.3)   macs on a PC network

    It looks like your getting an address okay. Have you tried out a variety of applications to see if it only happens on certain ones? (eg, web browser but not iTunes) If it's okay to run that at work, anyway
    Some explanations of the gibberish below:
    en0: That's the short name for your network card. If you have multiple cards or other manufacturers this can be different but it's fairly standard. There will also be another device called lo0 displayed usually. This is called a loopback device and points to you machine. It will have the address 127.0.0.1 It's a good way to test servers or other things running on your machine, by connecting to that address. It's not really useful in this case, but knowledge is power
    The flags indicate what the status of the network card is. It's up, and running normally for most networks. The mtu setting indicates the size of packets of data transmitted by your network card. 1500 is fairly common, but some networks or ISPs may note a smaller size in their support pages. If no one has been monkeying with your network recently, assume this is okay.
    inet6 is support for the eventual switch to a better internet addressing standard. nothing to worry about here.
    inet 192.168.50.54 is you address on the local network. So you're getting an IP at least. If a Windows machine on the network has taken that address as well, that can cause problems. It shouldn't happen, but it does occasionally. The windows box will typically spit up a warning dialog on the screen pretty quickly if that happens. I haven't run into it on my mini yet so I'm not sure if Internet Connect will pop up the icon with the lightning symbol or nor.
    The netmask is a hexidecimal number showing the range or "scope" that your subnet (the area of the network you're in) occupies. FFFFFF80 is equal to 255.255.255.128. In this case it means that your subnet is restricted to a range of 127 addresses. If your address and the address of your internet gateway weren't in that range together you'd have a problem, because they wouldn't recognize each other as being part of the same subnet.
    But the broadcast address would indicate that they are. Both fit within the range of 192.168.50.1 and 192.168.50.127
    If those machines couldn't see each other then instead of your 192.168.x.x address, you'd see the 169.x.x.x address I mentioned, and would be off the network.
    So, now that you've been bombarded with all that, it looks like you're okay on the local network so now the task is finding out why you can't see out.
    Try a few different apps and see if they succeed, like running the software update, etc. If they work, then it's possible your browsers may need to be configured to use a proxy server to get to the net. That's a lesson for later
    Here's my ifconfig info:
    en0:
    flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAS

    I don't see any "169" , but I don't really have any
    idea what else is going on here. Any help would be
    really appreciated. It's so frustrating when you
    finally get a Mac in a PC office and then it doesn't

  • Solution: Can't See Windows PC's via Tiger 10.4.2 Network Browser

    Please see this post, I could not reply with the solution to this post because it was archived.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=725372#725372
    Here's the solution:
    In Directory Access v1.2, You MUST capitalize the first letter of the Workgroup name, and ONLY the first letter.
    Here's why:
    In the version of Directory Access provided with Panther (v1.1.4) when setting the workgroup name in directory access, if you change the name from the default "WORKGROUP", it is acceptable to user all upper case; in my system it was "NETWORK".
    After upgrading to Tiger, Windows network connectivity stopped working; we could not "see" Windows PC's via the Tiger Network Browser. We struggled for months with this issue.
    It turns out that Directory Access is upgraded to version 1.2 when upgrading to Tiger. Once the upgrade to Tiger is complete, if you check the Directory Access App, the Workgroup name is carried over exactly as it was entered; again in my case NETWORK.
    I have found that Directory Access 1.2 will accept all UPPER CASE or all lower case letters for a workgroup name, but if all upper case letters or lower case letters are used, you will NOT be able to view the Workgroup via the Finder's Network Browser.
    Acceptable:
    Workgroup
    Network
    Mshome
    NOT ACCEPTABLE
    WORKGROUP
    NETWORK
    workgroup
    network
    mshome
    etc
    Interestingly, in Directory Access 1.2, if your Workgroup name was carried over from a prior version, or if you simply entered the name after install or upgrade as lower case or UPPER CASE, Directory access will "add" the correct name in the drop-down list below the incorrect entry. Simply click the drop down list, select the Workgroup name with the proper capitalization and the ability to see Widows PC's via the Finder's Network Browser is fixed.
    I've reported this to Apple Engineers.
    Hope this helps someone.

    i've got almost the same problem, the only difference is that when i try to go to my mac mini via IP, is the only way that windows can see the mac (on my case) and all the time sais that the Desktop folder was removed from the original place, that happens everytime that i copy or cut some file...ohhh and when i try to connect from the mac mini to the PC it sais that the alias could not be fixed and if i wanna fixit...doesn't do much really, and when i try to connect from the g4 to mini sais that the connection was failed because it took to much time and for the g4 to work again i've got to relaunch the finder. I'm under a Dlink router.
    Please help.
    PD: the versions of the OS's are:
    Phanter: 10.3.9
    Tiger: 10.4.5

  • Cannot see Windows computers in Network!!!

    Hi,
    I love my iBook to bits but this problem is doing my head in!
    When I first got my iBook, I could see all the Windows computers in my workgroup(called WORKGROUP) in Network. I then noticed after a few weeks that I couldnt any longer!
    I can get round this problem by using the SMB/CIFS protocols but I want my computers to appear in Network!
    All the Windows computers can see each other. They can even see my iBook in "My Network Places" in Windows XP. However, I can't see any of them in Network! Why?! This problem is killing me! I've checked the workgroup name in Directory access, it is "WORKGROUP" which is the same name in the Windows computers. The iBook even appears in the same workgroup as the windows computers on the in "My Network Places" for all the 3 PCs!
    Why can't I see them in Network though!!!

    Try the following to change the iMac's default workgroup name: Workgroup to Mshome.
    Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > Directory Access
    - Click on the lock icon to allow changes
    - Select the SMB/CIFS option in the list, and then, click on Configure.
    - In the pop-up window, enter Mshome in the "Workgroup:" window, and then click OK to save the change.

  • Mac Pro on PC network cannot see the printers??

    I am a newbie. I can see the disc drives and computers on the network, but I cannot see the printers. I can see one but am not able to get it to print.
    I know I am missing something simple here.
    Open to any and all suggestions.
    Thanks
    John

    Re-read Kappy's reply. You need to use the printer setup utility to "install" the printer on any network computer that you want to use it. It may or may not appear as a network node (my OkiData network printer does not) but it will be available in the "print" dialog.

  • Trying to see new windows computer on the network.. but I cant. Help?

    I can see the old windows PC on the network just fine. I open up a finder window, click on Network in the upper left hand, and in there click on "Charter" whatever that is (its actually our ISP but I dont know why its in there) and I see the other PC. Both PC's are running WinXP. This Mac is running 10.3.9. I cant figure it out. Any thoughts? Thanks,
    Chris

    If you want to see the Network, you need to go into Finder->Preferences, select the sidebar tab and then make sure there is a checkbox next to Computer at the top of the list. After you enable this, your computer's name will show on the sidebar and you should be able to get the Network listing from within there.
    I found that I had to turn off the Leopard firewall in order to be able to see machines on the local network. I had previously put it into stealth mode.

  • How do I stop the Finder from seeing SMB (Windows) shares on the network?

    I have the OPPOSITE problem most people have -- Windows Sharing works TOO WELL.
    I've donated a refurbished eMac to the local homeless shelter. I figured I'd made the system secure, and prevented any monkey business. Turns out the windows machines on the network are COMPLETELY insecure (guest access to everything is enabled). The problem is that the Mac is TOO friendly -- it automatically connects to the server as a guest, and happily presents everything to the user.
    I've tried a dozen different things (I've removed the 'Shared' section from the sidebar in the Finder windows (Go->Network is still there, Doh.), tried to turn off File Sharing, and even disabled the mount_smbfs command in the /sbin directory with "chmod 0 mount_smbfs".)
    I've asked the folks there to call in a PC tech and fix their security problem -- but it's a good question to which I've found no suitable answer... How to I stop the Mac from connecting to SMB Shares on the local network?
    Thanks.
    -JD.

    Same problem, keep getting a pop up with connection failed you do not have permission to access the server. The server is a windows 7 box, Starting happening after an up grade to windows 7. Nowhere can I find how to stop trying to connect. I am sure its at the unix level of samba but what to do is another question

  • Printing From iBook To Printer on Vista Desktop, Cant see shared printers

  • Suddenly can't see any printers!!!

    Help!!! I suddenly can't see either of my printers... a very old LaserWriter 5800, and also a Canon color printer. I'm posting this via my Airport network connection, so that obviously works. I'm also seeing one of two other computers on the network under Shared in the Finder window. The other two devices I'm seeing are the Canon printer's Fiery processor and the Airport base station. I upgraded to Leopard almost immediately, and this only happened today. Any ideas? Thanks very much in advance!!!

    Updating the situation (still need help!!!)... I restarted everything network-related (cable modem, firewall, switch, and Airport) and now I can see both printers in the Default and AppleTalk windows of the Print & Fax system preference, but ONLY when I'm hardwired into the network. When accessing through Airport instead of ethernet cable, I can only see Bonjour shared printers on a colleague's machine? Any ideas?? Thanks very much in advance!
