i am trying to connect to a printer that runs through a windows network, i found and installed the mac drivers for this printer and connect to the printer via the windows section in the add printers part in the setting, it all seems to be working fine but when i try to print it says waiting for authentication, and it never gets past it, even when i enter my windows log-in details to log-in as my windows user it still doesnt do anything.
Does anyone know how i can fix this?
