i have a wireless canon mp495 printer on my network. i can print from my laptop, but i have to disable the macafee firewall on the desktop to print from there. the macafee version is 12.0. any solutions? thx
First thought is has the firewall allowed access to the printer spooler?
program spoolsv.exe?
Try checking out which TCP port your printer is using and add that port in the firewalls trust/white list. Good luck.
