XP Pro network printer problem

[Twofootputt]

When I connect to my work network remotely, I can only print to the network printers which are 150 miles away. What I have to do is forward info to a webmail account, open a separate IE window, then print out of the second browser window. At some of the remote plant locations, I'm on a dial-up & this gets really tedious. I have admin access on the local machines & my lappie. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that XP Pro does not support printing to local printer while remotely connected.

Go to My PC does however.

Not sure about PC Anywhere, will have to check.

No luck.
