remote printer sharing
I have set up a wireless home network on which I would like to share a
printer attached to my desktop on which Vista Home Premium is installed. My remote computer uses the Windows XP operating system. I have set up the network and enabled file and printer sharing on the desktop and allowed an exception to the Windows firewall. I have also set up a network on the remote computer. Both computers have the same workgroup name. I am not able to get my remote computer to find the printer on the Vista desktop. Any suggestions? -- Vince

remote printer sharing
Thanks for your help. My problem is solved. I found that I had two firewalls
enabled, one from Norton and one from Microsoft. When I disabled the Norton firewall I was able to print remotely. -- Vince "Robert L [MVP - Networking]" wrote: go to DOS command, type net view \\IP (Ip is the remote computer ip address).
