I am part of a small, three computer home network. My XP
box is new and works great; the other two computers are
both iMacs.

One of the iMacs has a nice Canon Bubblejet i950 that I would
like to access from my XP box. I am able to log onto the
iMac using the appropriate IP address and login information,
so that's not a problem. However, when I go to install the
printer on my XP box, I am told that the remote computer
doesn't have the right driver. What should I do? I don't
know how to install a Windows driver on a Macintosh
computer -- or if that's even the right approach to take.

TIA,
dave
 
The Mac doesn't need to have the drivers for XP installed.... but the XP
needs to know where they are......

Download them from the Canon website.... and when XP asks where the drivers
are, point it in the direction of the files you downloaded.
