HELP! Hook up HP Officejet printer to Mac OSX 10.5 wirelessly?

Question

I've been sitting on google for 2 hrs looking for a way to hook up my Mac OSX 10.5 to my HP Officejet 7110. The printer is hooked up the a Velocity Micro computer configured with windows vista. I'm already hooked up to the network, but my computer can't find the printer. If you have any advice, please let me know.

Well, step one is to be sure the printer is shared on the Vista machine and that file and print sharing are enabled.

Here is the sharing information for Vista.

Since that is rather involved you can read the details from Microsoft.

Once that is done you have to set your Mac into the same workgroup and you should be able to see the shared printer.

Be sure the firewalls on both machines allow the LOCAL network addresses.
