Unable to print on network between Win Vista and WinXP

[RPD]

Hi
I have a home network where the base computer is WinXP networked to 2
WinVista computers. When I added the 3rd computer(Vista) i have not been
able to print from it to a printer attached to the base(XP) computer and have
been through all the help files given. This computer does connect to the
internet OK via the WinXP one but will not print anything. I have today tried
reinstalling the printer on both machines to try to get it to work, but it
still doesn't print from the Vista machine.

I am grateful for more advice & steps to follow for me to get this to work
(even if it means rechecking everything- user acounts, printers etc). I am
baffled why it won't work when I seem to have followed all the help files.
I look forward to some reply -many thanks

Sorry, you’ve landed in a MacWord group.

You should repost on a Windows newsgroup--I think there is probably even
one dedicated to networking.

Ha
Oh dear- I thought these were Windows groups & I'm in the wrong place then!
This shows that I have problems working with computers. Anyway thanks for
this hint and I will go & search a more appropriate group to post to. Best
wishes to you and "mac"
