Hi All
I hear a few ISPs have the problem but I found it with Optus cable in Melbourne and mainly at nite.
Optus are aware of the problem and say they are working on fixing it however it will take weeks if not months!
I use Battleping to fix it and it works great!
Good luck and have fun 🙂
Print from Mac OSX to Printer on Windows Network
My setup
Brother HL5040 Connected to a Windows 7 64 Machine using USB
Lynksys Router
Mac 20″iMac Running Snow Leopard and an old 17″ iMac G5 running Leopard
On the Windows 7 PC, Enable LPD drivers
1. In Windows 7 Control Panel
2. Select Programs
3. Select “Programs and Features” pane
4. On the LH Side Click “Turn Windows Features on or off”
5. Open the Print and Document Services Menu and “Turn on the LPD print Service”.
On the Windows 7 PC, Share the printer
1. Select the “Start/Devices & Printers
2. Right click the printer and select “Printer Properties”
3. Click the Sharing tab.
4. Enable the checkbox “Share this printer”
5. Make sure the printer name has no spaces and simple, e.g. this is mine – lh5040
6. Also a good idea to specify the ip address of the machine connected to the printer.
Sometimes the ip can change and that will stop the printer from working on the Mac, E.g. mine is set to 192.168.1.100
On the Mac running OS X
1. Open “System Preferences” – “Print & Fax”
2. Click “+” to add a printer
3. Under the IP Tag, Protocol: “Line Printer Daemon – LPD”
4. Address: “IP of the windows machine the printer is shared from”. In my case its 192.168.1.100 (just like that, nothing else)
5. Queue: (is the share name of the printer on the windows machine, in my case its “lh5040”.
Do not leave the queue area blank as the comment tell you, do the above
6. Name the printer what you like, I just left it at the default which is the ip of the printer
7. Print Using: select the printer from the list, on my Snow Leopard sys I used the HL5040 Gutenprint driver
and on my Leopard G5 sys I used the HL5040 Cups as it didn’t have the Gutenprint option.
8. Click the “Add” button
Print away!
Hi all.
Welcome to the new look website.
I have changed it to a Word press type site. The reason I have dose this is mainly ease of updating the news (blog) the photos and also some of the content section of the site.
The content on the old site was not to bad to update but the news and photo areas where a pain.
Also the website had a bit of an old look about it.
The new site now also works great on a mobile device, I have tested in on iPhone, iPad and a 7″ tablet.
The Blog area now is on the front page, the place you come to first. I think this is the way of the web now and that is the page that will change the most. (New Content)
That’s why users will come back, to see new content, not much use returning to a site that is always the same.
So have a look around.
Also you will see links on the right to follow me and also links to the Flickr photo gallery, there you will see some cool pics of various nice things I have been working on.
Idd also like to thank Richard Stocks for supplying me with a server for me to setup the site before making it live and all his data base help.
Enjoy
Steven
