I have a canon i860 connected to my desktop which runs Windows XP. I am trying to get my macbook pros (both running SL now) to print to it. The printer is shared, and the MBPs can see it, but when I try to print anything, the job sits in the queue on Windows and blocks any new jobs on any of the computers, including the desktop, until I go in and delete the stuck job. I also have a Windows XP laptop that can print just fine.

I upgraded the canon driver on Windows, and both MBPs downloaded the canon driver update for SL. When installing the printer, I have tried both the Gutenprint driver and the real driver (now that SL is out), but neither work.

I used to have this working under Leopard with the gutenprint driver, but something changed, and it stopped working before SL came out.

Any ideas?
