Laptop to Desktop Printing
I have a laptop with XP and a new desktop with Vista. I used to be able to
print from my laptop with XP to the desktop that had XP throuh the wireless connection. Now with Vista on my desktop I can't. Can I fix this? I already downloaded the KB922120 update. |

Can you open files shared on the Vista machine?

No, I lost the connection with the new Vista desktop and can't get it back.

Glad it's not a printing problem. Reference the information Cari provided
earlier to get the sharing setup properly. There are also network newsgroups as well with people who know lots about networking. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/net.../vista_fp.mspx -- Alan Morris Windows Printing Team Search the Microsoft Knowledge Base he http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[ln];kbhowto This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
