I am in a corporate environment stubbornly trying to use my Macbook Pro. I am running a Vista VM that is not a member of the corporate domain. However, I have mapped and set as default a printer shared on the corporate network. I would like to have my Mac see this printer as shared from VM so I can "print through".

It doesn't show up in the Printers area. Obviously, though my Mac is VPN'd into the internal network, I can't seem to see the printers directly. But the Vista VM could.

what can I do?
