try reinstalling file and printer sharing. And make sure the ME computer is logged on. ( just log off and back on to fix)

Also make sure the Shared Printer's Shared As name does not exceed 11 characters. If it does a Windows 9x machine will NOT be able to see the printer or shared folder as 9x has a 11 character limit on shares :D
