    Printer sharing wont enable

    I can't share out any of my printers on one of my Vista computers.

    I go into Network and Sharing Center, open Printer sharing, turn on printer
    sharing and then press Apply, but Printer sharing stays off.

    This only happens on one of my three computers and it happens to be the one
    usually connected to the network wirelessly.

    Any help?


    thanks
    Michael

    Uh, yeah...you still have to install the printer drivers on the other computers that are going to be using it...otherwise they have no friggin clue what that printer actually is.
