This is not a postscript printer, so this cannot be a postscript problem. The 2610 only understands PCL.

First check and make sure you can print to the printer from the pc. Then make sure you have the driver for this printer installed on your mac. The hp site has drivers for osx. Make sure you have talking to Windows networks (SMB) enabled on the mac. You should be able target this printer using the 2610 printer driver and be able to print. I did this just once on my Mom's mac and pc. So my memory about the specifics is vague.
