When working in a PC and MAC mixed invironment, there is an increasing need to print from a Windows connected Printer from a MAC.

Most routers and security appliances allow administrators to restrict access to a local area network via Media Access Control address filtering, or MAC authentication. This feature prevents unauthorized equipment from logging on to the network; if the MAC address of the device isn't allowed through the filter, the appliance blocks the device from the LAN. If you've connected the printer to your network but need to know its MAC address to perform administrative changes, you can find the address via the address resolution protocol. If you need to configure a security filter to allow the printer access, however, finding the MAC address might be a little more difficult.
