This
can apply to Windows XP and Windows Vista
If your network printer attached to a computer on your network
-
you need to type \\
-
then the computer name (the one that has the printer attached)
-
then \
-
then type the name of the printer
-
This is what it looks like .. \\server\hpprinter
If
the computer name was mitz and the printer was bob I would type \\mitz\bob
Notes:
-
When enabling sharing for your printer,
rename it something very easy.
-
Rename your computer name to something easy
also. The default computer name is a mix of your name and numbers, which
is very confusing to re-type when trying to network a printer.
