Hi
I have installed a USB printer on one PC (XP SP1) and need to have
other PCs print to it on our network but am having some problems.
Normally when sharing a printer that is connected via parallel port I
can connect by adding a new local printer and setting up a new port
for the printer (e.g. \\PC1234\LabelPrinter). I do this so that the
printer is automatically present for all users of the PCs and users do
not have to connect themselves.
However this doesn't work for USB printers as it appears for all users
but only works when I'm logged in. Is there a way to connect to a
shared USB printer and have it appear for all users?
Regards and thanks
