I have a win2k machine that's hook up to a printer locally. We try to share it...the permission set on "EVERYONE" is everything that an administrator can do. Now it only prints locally. When we try to print it from another computer (also win2k), the local machine will pop up a message box saying that there is an error printing. Note that when we connect to the printer, we use Guest account with no password which is enabled in the local machine (Maybe we need to put it in group other than guest??? maybe)...anyone know solution???

Try loging on as Administrator on the non-local machine? Is the printer W2K compatable? If so go to C:\WINNT\system32 and allow "everyone" full access to the folder. Some printers need to write to this folder and won't print if the fold isn't open. Hope this helps Brian

Did you set up the share of the print, not just adding the file and print sharing service? I would setup a user account on the other machine using the same username and password as the machine with the printer.
