Welcome to AT Network Forum.

You probably are not aware that typing in uppercases means over the Internet.

"I AM YELLING LOUD". As desperate as your are it is considered inappropriate.

Log to this page it has a lot of links to instructions to Windows Network Setting and Sharing.

Link: Installing & Sharing

thanks for the link. and please excuse the caps.

But it is OK to use caps at the beginning of a sentence and other appropriate circumstances.

Simple.


On both machines, go to control panel ,network conenctions, find TCP/IP in the white box, select it and click properties. Install the Netbios protocol.

Wherever the printer is connected, go toControl panel, and go to printers, and right click on your printer. go to sharing, and Share it as something.

Then, on the mahcine without the printer, go to my computer
In the address bar, type:

\\Computer , where "Computer" is the name of the PC with the printer attached. You should then see the printer. Right click on it and click Connect.


That's it. All programs should see it as the default printer.
