Hello peeps!:-)
I hope this is the right forum to post this. We have 3 PC's networked (LAN TCP/IP type). 2 PC's are XP and one is ME. All PC's can share documents and files but when it comes to sharing the HP660C printer, which is attached to one of the XP machines, it seems that the ME machine can't see the share... it's perfect between the XP machines but the ME machine just can't seem to see it. We tried downloading 98/ME drivers for the Printer and have the printer share load the drivers via the advanced option in XP but it does'nt work. Can anyone help?

Andrew,

Have you tried loading the win ME drivers on the win ME machine?

Just a thought and good luck!

I had a problem very similar, and was able to fix it by adding the WIN ME drivers to the XP Printer using the properties tab, and then click on additional drivers, then install the WIN ME driver.
