Love it. Had a problem connecting to a cheap-o print server (airlink, $19.99 on sale) from a Windows computer even though I had just set up another Windows computer to the same print server using the same exact method... couldn't get that windows box to connect... Installed Bonjour from Apple and voila! Instantly I see the printer! Love it.



If you don't have it, this thing can really save your sanity:

    I have printer sharing activated on one of my computers and tried to connect to it using windows. Was that ever a pain in the butt! I reformatted and switched over to linux expecting a similar hassle but all the printers just magically showed up. No configuration whatsoever! Thanks CUPS!



    I know it is not the same situation as yours, but I can imagine your shouts of joy.
