Network diagram not right. Posted by: Andreas Hagele 07 Dec 2009 9:13pm

You are only describing how to get a printer shared that's attached to one of the (Win) computers. But your little drawing shows a box in the network, that looks like a network print sharer. I was hoping you would explain how to get those to work.

Thanks for the simple clear advice, but I think I get stuck at the step before in setting up the network. Any advice

What about a wireless connection? Posted by: no1pirate 05 Dec 2009 11:01am

Thanks, very useful, but can I have the printer in the office and the laptop on the verandah without a mile of cordage?
Cheers,
Alan.

If only it was that simple! I've gone through this process a thousand times and there's now way I can get it to work
Both PC's are running XP, I've got the latest drivers installed-but nothing happens. Ah well thanks for your input
