I have a print sharing problem. I have reviewed several
other posts, and tried most if not all the suggestions.
I have three computers networked with a router. My DSL
line is connected to the router, with all three computers then
connected to the router. The computers are as follows.
#1 AMD 1800 Desktop
Windows XP pro
HP Desk Jet 970Cse (connected to USB)
#2 Pentium 400 Desktop
Windows 98SE
HP 1220C (connected to parallel port)
#3 Pentium 333 Laptop
Windows 98SE
I can share the DSL line and files between all three
computers, no problem. I did run into a snag trying to
share the printers.
Computer #1 and Computer #3 can see & share the
HP 1220C printer that is connected to computer #3.
Computers #2 & #3 cannot print to the HP 970Cse
connected to computer #1. Both printers are set to "share."
I added the HP 970Cse as a network printer to both computer #2 & #3.
An interesting side note is that when I view the network from the
computers, I see "HP 1220C" as the printer on computer #2, but
only "printer" on computer # 1.
So what's up?
