I have a Canon printer in my office at home. If I need to print something I plug the printer’s USB cable into my laptop. But I’m not always in my office. And it’s a hassle when we have multiple laptops sharing the same printer. So I bought an Apple AirPort Express.
Setup was easy and printing for both OS X and Windows works fine. The only issue I had which took a few tries to get right was setting up the printer in Windows. You need to install the latest version of Bonjour for Windows and run the Bonjour Printer Wizard. The installer insisted that Bonjour had already been installed but the Printer Wizard wasn’t there. I’m not sure if Bonjour had been installed by Boot Camp or iTunes but the fix was to uninstall and then reinstall it.
