Printer sharing situation
Here s the situation. Computer #1 is connected directly to the printer Computer #2 is networked on a home-file/printer sharing network with computer #1 as the main computer. I have had this working so #2 could print with #1 acting as the printer server. Now however,
I can ping #2 from #1 but not the other way. If I disable the firewall in #2 the results are the same. If I disable the firewall in, both I can ping #1 from #2 but I still cannot print from #2. Is this clear and if so what might the problem be?

If you have enabled Firewall on both PC please try to Disable first and then share your printer where your printer is installed or PC#1 and then try to install Printer on from second computer it will automatically detect your shared printer on from PC#1 and now you will be able to print from any where on to PC#1 or from PC#1. Both are same. Please try but carefully.
