XP to vista printer sharing stopped working - access denied
I have printer and file sharing enabled on a XP SP3 computer, and had a EPSON STYLUS DX6050 connected to this. I was able to access the files and the printer from my Vista Home Premium Laptop. However the printer broke and I had to get another one, which is a EPSON STYLUS SX400. I enabled printer sharing for this printer, but every time I try to connect to it I get a message saying access denied. I am still able to share files. Why can't I access this printer when I could the other? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Daniel Norman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Daniel Norman's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/daniel-norman.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-har...es/1108430.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
