Sorry guys i know this has been asked a million times but im having real issues.

I have a mac, and my Photosmart Printer is running via aiport express just fine. My partner would like to be able to print so i have tried the way that apple say in the airport manual (setting up a local printer but to the IP of the airport) and widnows installed the printer, but simoly wont print. So i have now enabled print sharing, but windows will not find the printer on the network.

For some reason my mac and his PC will not go in the same workgroup. I can see my mac and not his PC in the workgroup, and he can see his PC and not mu mac in his workgroup, BUT when i manually type the IP of my mac/home folder, i can access all my files from his PC

But that isnt the issue anyway, the problem is he cant print and i have tried 2 different methods.

Any ideas?

Many Thanks
