A comment on the problem "No printer setup utility in Leopard?" in Apple:

Really? that's interesting... check for "Disk Utilities" in your Applications folder or use Spotlight to find it. It should be in your Mac somewhere and follow the previous instructions. – Alex, on October 11, 2008 01:37

Alex, I tried that but there is no Mac HD nor Disk Utilities found in Applications > Utilities...? There is only HP ink jet utility, iMac EFI Firmware Update, Adobe Installers, Adobe Utilities and Java. Should I reinstall my Mac OS X 10.4? In doing so will I need to remove all my files to ensure they won't be deleted?

Jen try the following:
go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utilities and click on your mac drive and click repair permissions and once done click in repair disk. restart your Mac and see if it works... – Alex, on October 09, 2008 02:13

Alex, I'm having the same problem but when I select the "+" icon NOTHING happens. I was able to do this a few days ago but now nothing seems to be working. I found forums that say connect using AppleTalk but when I open my network preferences it keeps saying "Your network settings have been changed by another application" click "ok" and it pops right back up. therefore I can't do anything there either. PLEASE HELP. – jen, on October 08, 2008 21:18

This is works great on Max ox 10.5.4. The printer set up is found in the system preferences and not in the Utility folder in applications as other incorrect suggested. Thanks for the help. – hydrochick31@yahoo.com, on September 25, 2008 20:01

None of these solutions work for me, because when I click the "+" in the print and fax preference pane, it can't find any printer. I managed to get the info into the computer when I connected the printer directly via usb, but then couldn't figure out how to change the connection type from usb to rendezvous, which is what the "help" pane suggested. If it can't find the printer in the first place, then maybe I didn't set up the AirPort utility properly, and the usb port is still closed?? Don't know what to do next.

The Printer Setup Utility is built into Print & fax preferences in Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard", just like Internet Connect is now part of Network preferences in Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard". Also AirPort base stations do not have printers connect wirelessly through IP addresses, you use Bonjour! Oh, by the way it's "ifconfig" in Mac OS X & Linux.

I found the printer's IP address after pressing the menu button (on the printer) for settings and scrolling through the options. Eventually I printed off a page that had all the printer's details - all generated by the printer. I entered the IP address and was finally able to access my printer from my MacBook Plus. Yay! (PS Good luck).

This just worked for me as well. Any comments regarding a printer/scanner combo. When trying to use the scanning software it won't recognize the scanner. Any suggestions to get the scanner software to recognize the scanner/printer? – Paul, on June 08, 2008 20:32

AMJ's approach worked!

In case anyone is confused, Scott's suggestion makes no sense since you're looking for the IP address of the printer, not the computer you're using.
I'm having a similar problem suddenly with my Lexmark wireless printer... I think Bonjour is supposed to automatically find the printer on the local network, but if it doesn't work you might have to find the thing manually. As someone mentioned, you can print a test page which might show the printer's IP. Or you can use a portscanner like nmap to search for it (not the useless one in Leopard; it can only search a single IP you provide to it).
