Cannot see shared printer on XP machine.
We have succesfully shared many printers on XP machines
that can be seen from 98. BUT we have problems seeing ones which are sharing HP laserjet 1000 printers (With USB connection) should we be able to see them from 98? |

Cannot see shared printer on XP machine.
According to HP, this printer fully supports being shared on a network using
Windows sharing. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/g...&docname=bpl10 969 Are you able to connect to the printer if you type in the path rather than browsing to the printer? Browsing (being able to see the printer) and actually connecting are totally different issues. Make sure that there are no spaces in the computer name or the printer name that you are attempting to connect to. Win98 did not deal well with spaces in names. PattyL "Roberto" wrote in message ...
