Till,

The issue was that the ipp was not detected properly. I could enter the 
IP address of the iMac and it would show me the iP4300. But whatever 
resulted by picking the iP4300 it kept prompting me for the drivers.

I am absolutely certain that the previous print manager tool on Intrepid 
found the iP4300 and just dealt with it. I did not even have to point to 
the iMac's IP address.
