| Guest | How to connect to XP Remote Printer from Vista I am trying to remotely access an HP All-in-One printer connected to a Windows XP Pro notebook from a desktop computer running Windows Vista Home Premium. Seems simple enough -- Add Printer, Network printer etc. but the Vista computer just does not see the printer although it is shared and I have followed basic instructions to enable security policies etc. on the XP machine. I have seen similar topics posted on this group and elsewhere but haven't found a workable solution yet. Any help will be appreciated. |

post. Even though both the computers are under workgroup "WORKGROUP", I cannot see the XP notebook from the VISTA desktop and vice versa. Could that be the root of my problem? How do I fix this? | ||||||||||||
