    I'm using an Epson multicolor inkjet printer, and an HP B&W Laserjet printer on the Mac environment. I had set up the HP as the default printer in System Preferences>Print & Fax. Both printers work fine and show up as choices when I click File>Print, and even allow me to "add printer".

    In the Parallel Windows XP environment, I show only the HP Laserjet, shown under USB001 (plus another HP Color, shown under LPT1, which I do not have; and won't let me print to the Epson - connected by USB - which shows "offline"). Nowhere in that Print dialogue box is there a choice to "add a printer". I have changed the "default" to the Epson printer, without success.

    The Help menu suggest that I "talk to the administrator" (that's me!) and I don't know what else to do.

    Appreciate your always helpful suggestions!
