I have a router connected to two computers. I'm trying to put the printer on the computer that the family uses instead of mine because of easy access. I installed the printer (HP Deskjet 882C) on the other computer and it works fine, but when I try to set it up on this computer I have trouble. First of all, I can't even find the other computer on my network here. I thought it had to be connected in some sort of way because it recieves internet through our router. So, if I can't see the other computer on the network it's impossible to set it up for printer sharing right? I guess that's where I need the most help, then; getting the two computers to speak to each other. I'm sure right now this post seems scattered but I've tried so many things in the past few hours that I'm getting lost. Any help would be much appreciated.
