My mom had a Windows XP computer with a HP LaserJet connected to it shared
with my iMac, I was able to print to it fine. She just recently upgraded to a new Windows Vista PC and i am no longer able to print to it. A Windows XP laptop is able to see and print to it. Any suggestions? Thanks! |

Do you have these turned on in Network and Sharing Center (in Control
Panel): Network discovery Printer sharing If not, give that a try. Thanks, Gloria -- Gloria Boyer Windows User Assistance team Microsoft Corporation |

Those functions are enabled. These types of things are why I switched to a Mac.
