I just bought a small printer server which is connected to my router. Everything works fine that way.

You can always try IP printing or as suggested use bonjour.

Yeah, I was worried when buying the iMac on how easy it would be to network a new printer that I was also ordering. After reading on Bonjour and installing it on the Vista Laptop it went through the wizard (like 30secs) and set up the printer for networking. Worked perfectly. You gotta love Apple for making it so easy to do things between Mac and Windows.

I just had the opposite problem, printing from my PC to a printer attached to my iMac. That was making me crazy, till I realized that Bonjour has a printer wizard that does it quickly and easily.

Although I have my printer hooked to the Mac and shared to Windows which is very easy, as you have a macbook that isn’t simple. Here is a site that I found awhile back that has a great article on networking a printer when it is connected to Windows. http://www.myfirstmac.com/index.php/mac/articles/1-printer-for-your-mac-and-pc
