Printing from XP laptop to Vista connected printer
I have recently got a new vista desktop. Printer installed fine (epson
stylus photo r320) on vista but I cannot see it on the network when I try to add it from my XP laptop. Both computers are visible on th network and I can access laptop files from the vista machine but cannot sem to find the printer. I have turned on printer sharing on the vista machine but so far nothing! Any ideas? |
