Hi,
I am having a problem printing from a computer(2) connected through a router. The other computer(1) is where the printer is connected to. I have change the printer properties to share and named it HP. The computer (1) where the printer
is hooked up to is a Dell 300mhx running 98SE and computer(2) is a Dell 2.0 Ghz running XP home. They both share an internet connection through the router with no probelm but I can't seem to get the Computer(2) to recognize the printer.
Any help would be appreciated.
 
you need to load win98 AND XP drivers for the printer

For XP Home, I had a guy tell me I had to create an "Owner" user on the printer's host and give that user the same password as the primary user on the XP box

I have not been able to get it to work yet though
