Hello,

I am trying to set up a printer share with another computer
and the system tells me that I have to make management
setting changes that require me to access the Security Tab
in the properties window of the printer I want to share.
When I right click on the printer and go to Properties,
there is no Secutiry Tab, and even when I combine right
clicking with the control key, it still does not appear.

I am logged on as an administrator, but it still won't
work.

Any help or ideas will be greatly appreciated.
 
Go to Control Panel > Folder Options > View and uncheck
"Use Simple File Sharing" and click "Apply".
