An update on the this sorry saga.... husband took one ibook to the shop and of course after much convincing, they plugged it into their printer. Bingo it printed!

Of course, it must be a problem with our printer. Our printers are (a) Epson less than 18 months old and (b) HP less than a week old.
He came home and called again, explained the situation and after several phone calls FINALLY got a technican to come out. They tried several tiimes, both computers. Guess what? No printing would occur!

It has been decided that there 'maybe' a fault with the airport express (which is also under warranty). Now we wait until this is decided, but at least we feel like at least something is happening--FINALLY!!
