I've set up a shared printer on a WinXP Home PC.....I can
not see the printer from WinME machines to set the printer
up on them.

(I can see shared folders on the XP PC from the ME
machines.)

Go into the Control Panel and click on Printers & Faxes. Right click on the
Printer in question and select Properties.

Look in the Sharing tab. Ensure the Shared Name of the Printer is less than
12 characters with NO SPACES in it.

If there is a Security tab (sometimes there is, many times there is not)
ensure that the EVERYONE entry has the correct permissions to print.
