Ken, I have looked into the User guides (download from: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=50128 ) It appears that the LW 11g does not yet support TCP/IP printing. We are using the LW 16/600 PS which does. Also with the ROM-update the IIg does not support TCP/IP. if you like to see our config page: http://www.syscom-europe.nl/futurebasic/ken/ so you need AppleTalk/LocalTalk on your XP or Maybe the Win 2000 machine can share its printer?
