Hi All,

I'm having problem with one of my Win2K pro station. I have configured a local printer attached to it. Now all my win 98 / 95 clients can not see the printer in network network neighbourhood but all win2k, NT or XP clietns can see it. Please advise how can I resolve this problem as some of the user need to share the printer.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Win2K

hi,
Just check the these points.
1.All the system are in the same network like
workgroup and subnetting.
2.At the windows2k pro side just share your local printer to avaibale to the clint

go to your printers folder.........right click the printer you're sharing and select properties. select sharing and then click on "Additional Drivers". from the list select the processors and operating systems you need to support.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for your comment.I had actually did the same setting over my end. But all my win98 clients still unable to see the printer attached to Win2K Pro machine. By the way, all the clients and the win2k Pro machine are under the same domain.

Thanks
