Printer Sharing

[jtzou]

I have a really stupid question that I SHOULD be able to figure out, but I can't.

Anyways, I have 2 computers at home networked on a hub. 1 is W2k Pro, the other is WinME. I have an Epson C60 attached to the WinME computer that shares fine so that I can print onto it from the W2k computer. On the other hand, I have a Samsung ML-1210 on the W2k computer that I try to share, but doesn't work. I've allowed sharing on the W2k computer, and I set up the security so that everyone has full control. But everytime I try and connect to it from the other computer, it keeps asking me for some password. I've tried every password I use (all 1 of them I use at home) and it says I can't. Is this just something between W2k and WinME? The Samsung is a nice little laser printer, and it'd be nice to always be able to print to it although the C60 is still definately a nice printer.

You need to ad a user (the winme user) to the win2k machine. So if you log into WinMe as JohnDoe then you need to set up JohnDoe as a user in the 2k machine. Then you have to ad that specific user to the printer share security.

Let me know how it works out.
