    Hello,

    I'm using Build 3214 running on OSX 10.4.1

    My iMac is connected to a LAN to which my printer is connected to. I'm trying to set up Windoze to see it, but everything I try results in not much happening.

    How do I set up my Parallels to see and accept a network printer?

    Thanks!

    I ended up having to use the specific IP for the printer.

    Download and install Bonjour for Windows in your VM. This is a free download from Apple.com.

    Thank you so much for that. I was also having the same problem with a network printer that was working fine from MAC OS. Bonjour found it straight away and I was up and running.
