Windows XP Printer Sharing Issue?
Hi,
I'm trying to network two XP computers to share the same printer. Every time I try to select "Share this printer," it does not set (it reverts back to the default, solitary setting).
How can make sure the printer stays set to sharing?
I am both of the computers' administrator.
