How to Print to a Shared Mac OS X Printer from Windows 7 & Windows 8

There are a number of indirect ways that you can trick Windows 7 and Windows 8 into printing from a shared printer attached to a Mac, but the best way to do it is through Bonjour. That’s because with every version change - either between Windows or OS X - the process gets muddled and a new solution has to be devised. But Bonjour has been fairly reliable even as both operating systems have evolved. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to set up OS X so that its shared printers are available to Windows computers and devices.
NOTE: This guide has been updated for Mac OS X Mountain Lion (version 10.8).

How to Enable Print Sharing in Mac OS X

In Mac OS X, first open System Preferences. In the Internet & Wireless section, look for the Sharing button. Click on it.

The Sharing window opens. Enable the checkbox near Printer Sharing. OS X then lists the printers installed on your Mac.

You can go ahead and share them from here. Check the box near the printer you want to share. Then, in the Users section, configure the sharing permissions. Select the users you allow to print and the permissions level assigned.
When done, close the Sharing window, and the System Preferences window.

How to Share a Printer Connected to a Mac OS X

Even though enabling printer sharing provides the options required to share a printer, there’s another way to share printers. First, printer sharing needs to be turned on.
Open System Preferences. In the Hardware section, look for the Print & Scan button and click on it.

The Print & Scan window opens. Here, you see the printers installed on your Mac. Select the printer you want to share. Then, check the box that says "Share this printer on the network".

If you want to customize how the printer is shared, click the Sharing Preferences button.

How to Add a Mac OS X Shared Printer to Windows 7 or Windows 8

Download Bonjour Print Services for Windows from the Apple Support website. As of this writing, the current version is Bonjour 2.0.2, which supports Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later. It also works in Windows 8. Installation is straightforward: run the setup file, agree to the terms (read them, if you’d like) and keep clicking Next until it’s finished.
Now, run the "Bonjour Printer Wizard". Make sure your Mac is up and running, connected to the network and the printer is connected and turned on. If all is well, Bonjour will automatically detect the shared printers. They’ll be listed as "PRINTER NAME @ COMPUTER NAME". Choose the printer you’d like to install and click Next.

If prompted, install the printer drivers. If you have the printer drivers installed on your computer already, you can choose them from the list. If not, you’ll have to locate them manually by clicking Have Disk. Make sure that you install the proper drivers for your specific printer model, otherwise you may have limited or no printer function.

After choosing the drivers, you’ll have an opportunity to verify the settings before finishing the printer setup. Click Finish if all looks good.

Now, the OS X shared printer will be available in the Devices and Printers panel of Windows. You can print to your Mac OS X shared printer as you would on a local printer, from the Print dialogue of the program you are using.

How to Change the Priority of Wired/Wireless Network Cards in Windows

Network ၾကိဳးေရာ wireless ပါအသံုးျပဳၿပီး အင္တာနက္ႏွစ္လိုင္းကို တစ္ျပိဳင္တည္းအသံုးျပဳေနၿပီဆိုလွ်င္ ဘယ္လိုင္းကို ဦးစားေပးအသံုးျပဳေနလဲၾကည့္ဖို႔ရန္ႏွင့္ ေျပာင္းလဲလိုလွ်င္.......

Do you ever plug in your wired network card while your wireless card is still enabled? Ever wonder how Windows chooses which one to use? Here’s how to see the default priority—and how to change it if you want.

How to See the Current Network Card Priority

You’ll need to open up a new command prompt window and type in the following command:

netstat -rn | more

The | more part of the command will make sure that it doesn’t go flying off the screen, requiring you to scroll backwards—speaking of which, you should read our article about how to scroll backwards in the command prompt with the keyboard.

At the top of the output you’ll see the Interface List, and the column on the left-hand side shows the metric of the interface. You’ll notice that the loopback interface has the highest priority, followed by my wired Gigabit card, and then my wireless card.

If you’re wondering what all the other cards in the list are about, I’ve got some VPN software loaded, as well as VMware Workstation, all of which create virtual adapters that show up in the list.

How to Change the Network Card Priority

To change the priority, head into Network and Sharing Center and click on the Change adapter settings link on the left-hand side—or you can quickly open the network connections list by typing ncpa.cpl into the Start Menu search box.

Now that we’re in here, choose the network card that you want to change the priority for, right-click it, and choose Properties from the menu.

Now select the Internet Protocol Version 4 item in the list, and click the Properties button.

Now click the Advanced button at the bottom of this window…. getting tired of clicking yet?

And now, finally, we’re at the place where you can make the change. Uncheck the box for Automatic Metric, and then type a number into the Interface Metric textbox. You can consult the list that we found in the command prompt earlier to know what metric to assign—you’ll probably want to assign it something higher than 1, since that’s used for the loopback adapter.

You may want to go ahead and change the priority for your other card as well, just to be sure that it is assigned the proper priority.
