You also have to install a Vista Compatible Printer driver in the Vistra
laptop, and a XP Printer Driver in the XP desktop. -- Mad Mike "padre" wrote: I have an xp desktop w/visa laptop I can see the workgroup through wireless network but can't see printer I have it shared and was able to see on old laptop w/xp.
