can't set-up network printer on XP by Phil
I am trying to add a network printer on a 98 machine. It is a shared printer installed on an XP machine. When I browse for the printer, the add wizard does not see the machine, so I can't add it. All the other XP machines on the network can see this shared printer. What is wrong?
