Re: Home network - Printer access denied from Vista PC to XP PC


I've been fighting this problem for days. I tried creating a new port
as suggested above by typing "\\computer name\printer name", but Vista
kept saying the port name was invalid. Finally, I tried it again, but
this time I replaced my computer name with the IP address -
"//192.168.2.3/HPOffice" and IT WORKED!!

Thank you guys! You really helped me get pointed in the right
direction! I hope my post further helps other. I LOVE THIS FORUM!
