I have a home network through the router. I have no
problem sharing any of my files but i cant share the
printer. On my other computer i get a message that says
that it cant connect to the printer, even thouh its on
and i have the driver of the printer installed on the
other computer. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Have you told the system that the printer is network shared?
