Share printer to new iMac

Hello. I just ordered my first Apple computer today. I am a long time PC owner, but have used Macs at work for the past few years to run apps like FInal Cut/DVD Studio etc.
I have an HP Inkjet copy, scan, fax and printer hooked up to my HP computer. The printer is not networked, but it is shared, so I can print from my laptop. Obviously I can't use the scanner unless I drectly hook it up to my iMac, but I would like the option to be able to print to it. With my laptop, I just conneted to the desktop over my network, and dragged the printer icon into my laptops' printer control panel folder. Can I do something similar to share my printer to my iMac for printing? Thank you very much for any help.

There are also many resources available right on your new iMac that answer questions such as this. In the Finder Help menu is an app called Mac Help. The following is from Mac Help;
Setting up to print to a printer shared by a Windows computer via SMB/CIFS
You can print to a printer connected to a Windows computer, if it supports SMB/CIFS and has been set up to be shared. You need to ask the printer's owner for the printer's workgroup and for any necessary user name and password.
1. Open the document to print, and choose File > Print.
2. Choose Add Printer from the Printer pop-up menu, and then click More Printers.
3. Choose Windows Printing from the top pop-up menu, choose a network workgroup from the pop-up menu that appears directly below it, select a workgroup from the list, and click Choose.
4. Any Windows printers in the network you've chosen appear in the Printer List.
5. Select the printer, choose its model from the Printer Model pop-up menu, and then click Choose. Enter the user name and password for the printer when prompted.
6. IMPORTANT: Be sure to choose the correct printer model for the printer you're using. For more information, see the documentation that came with the printer. If you have an HP PCL compatible printer that is not listed in the Printer Model pop-up menu, choose the printer model that most closely matches your printer. See the link below for a list of printers and the models they most closely resemble. (You may need to scroll down part way to see the table.)
If your computer cannot determine the options that are installed on your printer, a dialog appears that lets you choose those options. Make sure the settings in that dialog accurately reflect your printer's installed options so you can take full advantage of them. Then click Continue.
If you are trying to add a Windows printer that is not available, contact your network administrator for assistance.

Help! Just want to share DSL between new iMac & existing Windows laptop

I have existing laptop running on Windows XP, connected to a DSL modem via ethernet cable. The modem also has an additional USB slot.
I want to access the Internet from my new iMac G5, using the same DSL line, but not share anything (files, printer, etc) with the laptop (in other words, I have no desire to "network" with the laptop).
Can I just connect the iMac using the USB port? Also, do I need a router/firewall to make things easier/more secure?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Theoretically you could connect to the modem via USB, but other than Alcatel, no other modem manufacturer supplies USB drivers for Mac, and even those Alcatel's are not that reliable.
Yes, a NetGear router would work. Pretty much any router, as networking and IP are platform independent and will work with any OS.

Freehand quits when printing on new iMac

When printing out of Freehand 10, it processes to the printer then immediately quits. I'm printing to a Canon Pixma iP4200. I can print with no problems from Quark Photoshop, Acrobat and others. Just not Freehand. I've posted on this before and tried suggestion of reinstalling print drivers from iMac install disks and downloading driver from Canon web site. Still won't print from Freehand. Any suggestions?

Try Reset Printing System, a menu choice in Priter Setup Utility.
Also try downloading the 10.4.7 Combo Updater from Apple and re-Update.

What is the best wireless printer for new iMac w/Lion?

I just bought an iMac (Lion) and now, I need to buy a new printer since my old one is not wireless capable (HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One). My old G4 is still up and running (using it only for Adobe CS2 until can afford that upgrade) and the printer works fine. However, the iMac will not be in the same place as the G4, so I need a wireless printer.
I would also like the new printer to play nice with a PC laptop (husband's for work) as well as be able to eventually print from an iTouch and iPad.
I may be asking a lot, I know.
I would buy AirPort if I knew it worked with my current printer, which would be great... but from what I've been able to research, that isn't possible with this model. I will eventually end up buying AirPort at some point in the future, but right now a printer is my focus and I would prefer not to buy both right now.
So my question is...what printer would be best for both a Mac and PC without having to buy AirPort also?
Thanks in advance!

Whatever you do - do not by the HP8500. I am about to take a baseball bat to mine and bett the living daylights out of it. I used to have a 6500, reasonably god but slow and woudl not scan when linked to the mac...so I 'upgraded'.
Initially it worked well, quality is good and did everything well ....it still will not scan with the mac but will with every other lap top/PC in my house..but hat did not bother me too much. It is fast and quality is good...UNTIL
- It drinks ink faster than than you can imagine
- you cannot buy non hp replacement cartridges easily and not from Staples of PC World etc
- It sense that ink is running down so keeps sending annoying messages
- if you use a non std cartridge it registers it as empty and send more annoying messages
- the cartridges cost about £50 to replace al four - you can buy a new kodak all in one printer for £55
- it will print perfectly well with non HP or HP remanu cartridges, but still sends the dumb messages
- when using HP catridges it keeps telling you to replace them even though they are not empty and theres plenety of ink (marketing scam)
- This morning, the printer decided that the new (non HP magenta cartridge) that put in yesterday and was quite happy with ...is now empty...it refuse to print even black until i replace that cartridge.
I have no problem buying HP catridges if the price is fine - but the combination of a software blip plus high prices make me seethe. I will destroy this piece of junk and buy myself a Kodak or Brother - but never ever again an HP product - having spent over £3000 on PC/Laptops and printers from these bozos over the last two years they can count me out from next years forecasts

Installing printer on new iMAC

I tried to install HP printer; the printer shows up in the list but when I click "add" I get an error mesage -9672 and can go no further with the installation. What have I done?

thanks for the suggestion. I did finally contact HP. As it turned out, the PSC 1510 3-in-1 that I have did not come ready for a MAC with an intel in it. The printer had been working fine on the g4 (a Power Mac) that I also have. All I needed do was to download a new driver that was not in the original HP software.
Thanks to all of you who may have given this question a spin.

Can't select paper type or output quality when printing from new imac....

Not sure if I'm in the right place to post this question....
When I try to print (from ANY app; Photoshop, InDesign, etc.) to my hp business jet inkjet printer, I get a print menu, but no where on the print menu (or any pulldown tabs) do I have an opportunity to select paper type or output quality. I am unable to print photos, for example.
The printer worked fine with the old PC; there is no driver to d/l for mac.
Only from iPhoto can I select paper type (from a limited number of choices), but not from any other app on my imac. I mostly use InDesign and print flyers and brochures, many with photos, and can't select anything other than plain paper. Do I need a new printer? Genius bar 'help' said they had no idea why it wasn't working....
HELP!!!
Thanks!

Hi Duane,
Yes, I opened the Printer Driver package, and then pulled up my test InDesign file and selected File>Print, and here's the screen i get: (hope this works, I'm trying Skitch for the first time)...

when I click on "Setup" in the print menu box, I get this screen:

I've clicked on each topic on the left on the Print menu, and still there is no where to select paper type or output resolution.
The same thing happens when I print from Photoshop.
Thanks.

Fewer options with Epson printer on new iMac

I'm the proud owner of an iMac 27" retina display (OS Yosemite) replacing a very old Dell Windows pc.
Everything's working beautifully but I no longer have all the print options for my Epson Stylus SX115 (choice of paper, print on both sides of page, etc. ) despite having downloaded the latest Epson drivers for Mac OS Intel. Otherwise the printer and scan functions work - there are just fewer options.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

There doesn't seem to be anything newer on the Epson website. So I'll just have to make do.
Call and/or email tech support your problem. They even have a toll free # (1-800-463-7766).
My Epson XP 400 works just fine under Yosemite. Have not lost any options. There is a good chance that Epson is working on the "printing on both sides of page" option in Yosemite.

Cannot Install HP C4680 Printer to New iMac with OSX v10.6.2

I've followed the HP install directions to a tee (for Macs, connect USB before inserting install CD). I've also tried workarounds online ((a) connect USB after install but before set up and (b) turn off computer and printer and reboot and (c) attempt to install from System Preferences). I've also uninstalled and then downloaded installer and new drivers from the HP website and attempted to do (a), (b) and (c) with the downloaded installer and new drivers.
Nothing works. The install goes fine, but when I reach set up, my printer is not listed. When I check the box that says "my printer is not listed" (or something very similar to that), I get a message saying that if my printer is not listed, then I have the wrong installer and need to get the correct installer. However, no matter how many times I uninstall and reinstall the "correct" download from the HP website, I am stuck in "Groundhog Day."
I've been trying to install this printer for three days now. Any solutions would be very appreciated.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you run Software Update? If not, you should and install the updates suggested. Note whether there is an HP printer driver update amongst the suggested updates. If there is, go ahead and let SU do the update for you. You should have your printer connected and switched on throughout this process.
After this go to System preferences/Print & Fax and see whether your printer is listed. If it is there might be 2 mentions - one for FAX the other for print.
Let's know what all this shows.

Epson Bordless Printing on New iMac Intel

I have read all the threads concerning this problem. They say problem solved but I say no. There is no “then on the page setup below Button” in any of the print windows. Is it the driver or the system? Chicken or the egg?

Can I install this without having the Logic 6 on the

Hmmm.. I upgraded from Logic 7 but yes, I think Logic Gold could be upgraded as long as you have the XSKey.
Perhaps someone else could chime in here.

Share printer betwen two macs

So...the point is that I've got a printer connected via USB to my iMac and I want to use it in my macbook pro aswell. I have checked Share Printer on the iMac but I don't know what should I do on the macbook :S. I'm quite new on this.
Thanks!

You use the Share preference pane only on the Mac which has the printer connected. The Mac must be powered on and same with the printer.
On the remote Mac go to system preference pane/printers & fax and if your printer is not listed then use the + button.

A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
The Knowledgebase article Intel-based Mac: Some migrated applications may need to be updated refers to methods of dealing with migrating from PowerPC chips to Intel with the Migration Assistant safely. The authors of this tip have not had a chance to verify this works in all instances, or that it avoids the 10.6.1 and earlier Guest Account bug that caused account information to get deleted upon use of the Migration/Setup Assistant. However, a well backed up source that includes at least two backups of all the data that are not connected to your machine will help you avoid potential issues, should they arise. In event it does not work, follow the steps below.
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5 Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro , SuperDuper , and Drive Genius work properly on Intel-Macs with Leopard. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries. Leopard Cache Cleaner, Onyx, TinkerTool System, and Cocktail are now compatible with Leopard.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode, copying the critical contents to CD and DVD, an external hard drive, or networking will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs. The initial section below discusses Target Disk Mode. It is then followed by a section which discusses networking with Macs that lack Firewire.
If both computers support the use of Firewire then you can use the following instructions:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
2. Backup your data. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
3. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
4. Startup your old Mac in Transferring files between two computers using FireWire.
5. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
If you are not able to use a Firewire connection (for example you have a Late 2008 MacBook that only supports USB:)
1. Set up a local home network: Creating a small Ethernet Network.
2. If you have a MacBook Air or Late 2008 MacBook see the following:
MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) and MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)- What to do if migration is unsuccessful;
MacBook Air- Migration Tips and Tricks;
MacBook Air- Remote Disc, Migration, or Remote Install Mac OS X and wireless 802.11n networks.
Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder) /Home/Library/Preferences/ (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Calendars (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder) /Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)
If you want cookies:
/Home/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist /Home/Library/Application Support/WebFoundation/HTTPCookies.plist
For Entourage users:
Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft.
Credit goes to Macjack for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.

Is the new imac compatible with the dell v313w printer for wireless connection?

Is the new iMac compatible via wireless connection with the Dell V313W printer?

Hi Sara!
I got an email refering me to your post. Ok, www.MacMall.com is a US website that sells Apple products. I bought my iMac&printer through their website and worked with their customer service department to get my iMac communicating with the Dell V313W printer. They have people that will take calls any time-any day at phone number 1-800-622-6255. The other option since you are in France would be to contact a local Apple dealer...or see if they have an authorized dealer in Europe that could help. I purchased the Apple Care Support contract with the iMac but they were unable to help since they weren't familiar with the Dell printer.
As I mentioned in my previous post the things we tried were: 1) If I remember right... I downloaded the Dell V313W printer driver from the Dell website then connected the iMac to the printer via the USB cable and established communication. I then disconnected the cable and 2) I moved the iMac and printer closer to my wireless router then 3) I turned on "Printer Sharing" on the iMac - I think this is a critical step...to do this go to System Preferences > Hardware > Print&Scan. In the window that opens make sure the box is checked that says "Share this printer on the network" then go to the "Sharing Preferences..." box and check the "Printer Sharing" and "Scanner Sharing" boxes in the window that opens. When I did all this the iMac went through it's routine to find the printer and the connection was finally established!
One more thing, make sure if your wireless router is locked for security that you enter the correct password when prompted...this might have been one of my problems also!
Hope this helps.
All the best,
mw

I've uninstalled the software, reinstalled the latest drivers and software, and am still unable to print. The printer is listed as online and ready, but no printing.
any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg

I have a MacBook Air 11.6" running OSX 10.6.5 and cannot print to my Canon MF4350d attached to my AirPort Express, with printer sharing selected. HAve reinstalled software over and over agin. Turned printer off, unplugged, etc. No luck. Says it cannot find the software for the printer. The computer can "see" where my printer is located, but the printer will not print. Nothing seems to wrk. Any ideas what might be going on and how I can fix it? By the way, I was able to print directly to this printer connected to my computer's USB, but now even when I do this the same problem occurs. ALL ability to print seems to be GONE. COuld it be related to the recent upgrade to OSX 10.6.5?

Share printer to new iMac
