It really is becoming the best desktop to just get things done :-) Well, thank-you very much, I didn’t want to have to tell my Wife in the morning that she still couldn’t print from here iBook :-)

Some sort of Tiger. Darwin 8.4.1 kernel. I didn't see an http option on the printer like I have on windows clients. Just IPP. Do I need to get IPP running for this? Is there a way to print using HTTP? Do I need to install AppleShare servers... ICK! I just got a Mac. Some sort of Tiger.

Maybe it's just because I've been running Dropline Gnome since then. Those guys continue to put out a wicked nice Gnome distro. Tuomas: It’s gotten much better ever since Gnome 2.6 it seems like.

Which is awesome. Tyler: to my delight it seems like it is more and more often the case: stuff is clearly getting better and more polished on Linux. Which is awesome.

However, this is no longer the case with Tiger 10.4. With Tiger, the printer will pop up in the new options you get to add printers. It was very easy. Add, select, OK. And that's it. Granted, this should only work if you have the CUPS server setup to allow broadcast, which I do on my LAN, so Tiger was able to pick it up automatically. That hack of holding the Option key is gone and no longer required. That’s right, and that is how I got mine to work. However, this is no longer the case with Tiger 10.4.
