shared printer vs network
We have a small office network printer (just an hp inkjet nothing fancy). It
is installed one one computer and for simplicity I decided to share the printer instead of installing/configuring on each computer in my network. Recently other computers will crash (or the applications actually) when they try to print. All computes on the network are xp pro sp3. Any ideas why something like this would start to happen? Do you think I will solve that problem by installing the printer on each computer so they manage their own print jobs?

shared printer vs network
When the applications crash, this is an indication that the print driver is
corrupting the memory of the application. Check and see if the print drivers installed on the clients are the same version as the one installed on the machine sharing the printer. Windows Update may have updated the client machines print drivers. -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv=1 This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
