zillah Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) I used to have two desktops A & B, they have internet sharing and printer sharing , they were working fine.Desktop A XP Professional SP2 PC has got two printers (HP and Samsung) connected directly (USB cable), and Printer sharing is turned on .I bought another Desktop to replace B, because B is an old PC.From the Desktop B, when attempting to chose the option :A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer, to add a shared printer , I can browse and see the printers name (hp and Samsung), however, when I attempt toconnect both of them, I get the following error: cannot connect to the printer operation could not be completed errorDo I need to have admin account with their passwords on both Desktop to be able to share the printers ?Both PCs have XP prof SP2, and both of them on the same workgroup name (MSHOME) Edited April 17, 2008 by zillah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
