Network printing

I have a home network that is working fine. I just moved
my printer to a different computer within the network and
have been unable to print from other computers within the
network.
First, let me say that I can print from the host computer
fine.
Second, I have changed the location on all the remaining
computers to reflect the new location, new drivers were
installed if requested.
Third, when I attempt to print from a network computer,
the job is sent to the host computer, however; in the
status column it tells me there is an error. It's
frustrating that it doesn't tell me what the error is,
just that there is an error.
Lastly, I have checked pause and have attempted to resume
printing (from the host computer) and still get the error
message.

I too have this problem. I suspect the host somehow does
not recognize the sending computer since the print queue
ID's it as "guest". The rest of the network stuff works
fine.
