Re: Vista to Windows 2000 printer sharing Make sure a vista driver for the printer is available. Win2k can not provide drivers for vista afaik. You may need to logon to the win2k computer with vista before you can connect to the printer. In my experience my vista box doesn't like to connect to my dad's xp box to print unless I connect to a folder share first. Guest account is enabled on the xp box but my dad's machine makes my vista box authenticate. Once I authenticate by double clicking on a folder share and entering my username and password instead of using the guest account I can connect and print. You need to be able to connect to folder sharing before being able to print. |
