Message: [QUOTE="Steve Rindsberg, post: 7118346"] Re network or local printer: This may not be universally true but if I go to Start, Printers & Faxes, rightclick the printer I'm interested in and choose Properties then go to the Sharing tab: If the printer drivers are installed from the network server where the printer is physically installed, the sharing options are all grayed out. If it's a locally installed printer driver (whether or not the printer is physically attached to the computer), I have the option of sharing the printer on this same tab ... the settings are NOT grayed out. Also, if you print a test page and look at the Computer Name, if it's a locally installed driver, it'll be your own computer's name, even if the printer is physically attached to and shared from another printer. If it's a network driver, the computer name will be the name of the computer where the driver's installed from. [/QUOTE]
