Re: Connecting a Vista machine to a printer shared on an XP machin

The instructions say to increase by 3

So set the key
reboot
retry the connection
fails
change the key by adding 3
reboot
retry the connection
fails
change the key by adding 3
repeat

I'd set it to 50 first, if that works set to 25. If that fails go up 3. If
25 works you can tweak it but you know the default 15 does not.
