It should work fine on the Windows machine without too much trouble. Make sure the printer is installed locally on the PC first (for driver support), then power down the Linkstation, connect the printer, and power them both up. Find out the IP address of the Linkstation ( "ip_address" ), go to Start->Run, type in "\\ip_address" without quotes, and hit OK. Right click on "LP" or "lp", and click Connect. Follow through the wizard, and select the printer from the list. Print a notepad document or something to test.
On a mac, it is slightly more complicated. Try the instructions on this website , but make sure you use "smb://ip_address/lp" instead of the given Device URI.
No more firmware updates are likely coming for the HD-LAN series linkstations, since they have been discontinued, however, the 1.47 firmware should work fine for printing. Don't worry about the print setup page not having your printer, in this case it should print using RAW data, hence the need for the printer driver to be installed on each computer.
