Printer Sharing in W2K

[JonnyC]

Is there a limit to the amount of connections you can have
to a shared printer on a W2k machine. Im tryin to share a
HP inkjet off one machine and share it with the other 23
in the room. I get to about the 10th machine and Im
unable to find the shared printer any more..... Windows
2000 with SP4 installed through winNT Server. Any
suggestions would be appreciated

To the best of my knowledge win2k pro will only allow 10

simulataneous connections. Is there a network card for
your printer if not buy a print server

Hi,
In w2k professional you can only share ( printer's or what
ever ) betwen 10 user.
For more than that you ill have to install w2k Server
