I have 2 computers in a network. Each connected to its own printer. Files
from each computer can be accessed at both computer. It works great. I can share the printers from one of the computers. However, I cannot share the printers from the other computer I hope my explanation is clear. Should it be possible to share printers from each of the computers? XP on each computer. |

Printer can be shared. in addition to switch the sharing On they have to be configured on the client computer (the one without the printer) as a Networked printer and its Drivers.
