Hi,

If the other computers can print that is at least a good sign.

I suspect that you have not properly installed the shared printer or a port or ports are being blocked in firewall settings.

Be sure the printer is installed properly and try the test print. If prints it should then allow notepad to print.

I read it wrong and answer it wrong too. So get off my case you goober.
