Printer Networking Vista XP
Have wireless laptop running XP Home trying to connect to a network printer hooked up to a Vista machine. When I try to find the printer(from the machine running xp) over the network I can find the machine it is on but when I click on the computer it is located on it won't show me the printer. All machines are in the same workgroup. Printer sharing is turned on. The printer works fine from two Vista machines but not from xp. Frustrating!!! Fixes anyone? Thanks -- Ldopa
