Boot Camp Special Report: Getting AirPort-connected printers to work
Some users have encountered issues getting AirPort-connected USB printers to be recognized under Windows XP running via Boot Camp.
MacFixit reader Scott Dingle offers a solution:
"In response to Gerard Lucas' comment about not seeing his printer. You need to go to...Start Menu, Control Panel, Printers. Add new printer, select 'automatically detect..." and uncheck the box. Hit continue. Select a new port called 'TCP/IP', and hit next. For the name, punch in your AirPort's IP address. Hit next. Select your printer's driver (make you sure you already downloaded that) and hit next. Select your printer."
