Hi,
From the Vista i can see and access the other PC and copying files from tthe Vista vice versa. When i try to print a document on the other PC from the Vista it doesn't work. PS: the printer is not yet active on the Vista because the related drive is not yet available for Vista Regards Huib |

Then you can install the drivers on your Vista machine. Contact the printer mftr. or check on their website for updated drivers, workarounds, etc. Malke -- Elephant Boy Computers www.elephantboycomputers.com "Don't Panic!" MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User |
