Printer sharing

[Guest]

Hi,

I am trying to share my printer between my desktop and laptop.

I follow the instructions as per
http://www.coribright.com/windows/Article_Five.htm, but when I try to add the
printer the printer information box reports the status is documents waiting.
It doesn't find the printer name either.

Can each PC 'see' each other? Are they in the same Workgroup? If your
networking isn't correct, you're not going to be able to share the printer.

Hi,
It picks up my desktop, but not the printer.
I was printing from the laptop before with no problems. I don't understand
what has happened.

Ensure the printer is still set to be shared.
