    printer network

    Hi I want to use my printer connected to my main computer. I have tried using the XP tutoriel but when it comes to asking for printer names,server etc I get stuck, I give the name of the printer with a reply that it is spelt wrong or not known. I'm at a loss.

    I would like to use my printer from my laptop. When I try to connect via the windows help programme and it asks for printers name/computer name/server
    etc. I get confused. Can you help? Golfjack

    sorry for taking the time to respond

    have you set the printer to share in the printers properties?

    do you ask the laptop to search for printers on the network?

    Thank you for your reply. I have searched on the laptop and at last
    it has responded and found the printer. I have now got rhe printer
    working ok. this after I had purchased a new KODAK printer.
    Thanks again Golfjack.
