I currently have two computers hooked up to a single
router that connects to the internet. One of the
computers is hardwired into the router, and has a printer
attached to the computer. the other computer is a laptop
that connects to the router over a wireless connection.
both computers are running XP Pro. I'm trying to share
the printer from the hardwired computer with the laptop,
but I am having trouble finding the shared printer on the
laptop. Can anyone tell me how to share the printer that
is connected to the hardwired computer with the laptop,
or point me to a resource that will help me do so?
thanks,
 
Hello
they will have to be networked and the firewalls turned off, then go to your
printer properties on the host computer, name and set your printer to share,
go to your network properties and make sure you have protocols installed
along with file and print sharing
