Trying to print to a printer on my Wireless network. Printing sharing is on in OS 10.12.6 but when the printer never appears in Windows when I try to add a printer I get nothing. I am using the Bridged Adapter enO:Wifi (Airport) setting. I am not technically
expert but can you please help me with this? thank you.

That's because the printer sharing in OSX is Bonjour based, and Windows has no clue about that. What you need to do is to add the printer directly in Windows via its IP. Search for "Windows IPP printing" to see how.
Or you can download the
Bonjour Print Services for Windows and take advantage of the OSX shared printer.
