I have a main system running win 95 and a secondary laptop
running Win XP Home Edition (SP1). I can't get the XP
system to find the W95 printer. I know the printer is
shared correctly on the win 95 side as my other laptop
running w98 is able to use the w95 printer ok.
Using the "Add a printer" wizard on the XP system, when I
browse for printers, it can find the Win 95 system but it
doesn't seem to show there is a printer. The search screen
returns the following:
Microsoft Windows Network
HOME (Name of home network)
COMPUTER (Name of the Win 95 system)
but it has no printers listed under COMPUTER to select to
add?
Help?
