share printer on xp pro machine

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

the environment is 1 Nt 4 server as domain, 10 machine with xp Pro, 3 machine
with xp home.

if i installed the Canon LBP 800 on a xp Home machine and set as share, only
xp Home machine can add as printer. Other machine with xp Pro can add the
printer, but after a message of printer initiates, the add printer fall.

If i installed the printer to xp Pro machine, xp home machine, cannot see
it. And even some xp Pro cannot add the printer.

You means any printer share on a xp pro machine is limited to 10 connections
And the PDC has no control on it?

And i experienced that even another xp pro machine not even share a new
share printer (the simultaneous connections is sure to have less then 10
connetions), it stop at the initiate process and respone fail to add a new
printer

Thanks.
