I have a printer connected to (and shared from) an XP Home computer. It is
shared easily to an XP Professional computer on my home network. However, 2
Win 98SE computers and a Win Me computer do not even "see" the XP Home
shared printer, even though folder/file sharing works fine.
Other printers on the network (1 connected to the XP Pro machine and one
connected to a Win 98 machine) are accessible by one and all.
Why aren't the Win 9x-based machines not seeing the one connected to the XP
Home machine, and how can I remedy the situation?
Other details are below, but I don't think they have much to do with the
situation.
Thanks
John
