Printing problems

Hi, I am wondering if anyone can help me. I am running MYOB v13.5 on xp home in vmware fusion on my imac and I cant seem to get anything to print. Doesn't seem to print anything from within xp on fusion.The printer is recognized and the document shows as queued in the printer window, but doesn't print. I have tried reinstalling the printer and drivers but have had no luck. printer even starts up as if it is going to print - but then doesn't - weird. Printer is working fine on any other application on my mac. Help?!

Have a look at and fill in the blanks...

What OS X version?

What Fusion version?

What Network Type is the Guest using, NAT, Bridge or Host Only?

What Make and Model of Printer?

How is the Printer connected to the Host?

Is the Printer shared on the Host?

How was it installed on the Guest?

What Printer Driver did you use in the Guest?

Have you tried connecting the Printer directly to the Guest?

Thanks for your reply, I ended up finding a checkbox to activate the virtual

port that the printer is connected to - and it works fine.
