| Newbie | disable network printer search I've been trying to disable network printer search and have followed directions but am unable to find it. I am doing the following: 1. Go to my computer 2. Push alt to bring up toolbar 3. Tools 4. Folder Options 5. View Uncheck box named "automatically search for network printers." I get to the last step but cannot find the box. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks, Greg |
