Hi,

I am trying to set up my mac to print over the internet via my Win2003 the same way my Win box does.

On Windows I just have to enter the url of my printer then i get a log on box, enter user name and password and my connected.

My url for my printer is http://MY NETWORK.COM/printers/MFC-5480CN/.printer

Can any help me with how I do this on my mac
 
Go to System Preferences and click on "Print & Fax" then click the + sign to add a printer. I assume you are using IPP of the win2003 box?
