Hi Everyone,
I have a Canon MP780 Multifunction printer that I want to share the printing and scanning between my Mac Mini and my Windows PC. I was going to buy a print server to use on my network but they do not support multifunction printers. I was hoping to share without having to have both computers on which would be required if I share the printer on my network. Anyone have a suggestion for a solution? |

Good luck with this one. I'm sure you've figured out by now that Canon is NO help. I like their printers but find their tech support apathetic at best. I was pretty much in the same boat. My solution? We got rid of the PC and got another mac.

AFAIK, the only servers that are able to handle multifunctions are those built into the devices themselves. Good luck.

From personal experiece I have found it to be the case that as a shared device, only the printing function is avaliable, it is not possible to share the scanning function etc...
