I have 2 windows 2000 machines on a peer to peer network. One of the windows 2000 machines has a laser printer attached. I have no problem sharing that printer with an XP Pro machine. I cannot share it with the other windows 2000 machine on the network. Getting access denied error message. Any suggestions? What would cause this? Thanks
