Remote Printing

I can't get my printer to work. I have activated the shared printer option.
Any suggestions would be appricated.

Shenan:
Thanks for the reply.
I am working with windows xp. It is remote desktop. At one time I was
having some success with this, yet as I would try to print it would give me a
printer that would not print. I had a choice of three. I could print on two
of them. I deleted the one that would not print and that killed everything.
I do not know how to re-establish it. Any hints sure would be appreciated.

Thanks!
