HI!...I am having problems sharing a printer in Windows
2000. Okay...I set up a local printer on this machine as
a shared resourcedwhere other users could connect/print to
this printer. Worked fine on Friday, and had for several
weeks, came into work on Monday, could not connect to that
machine for printing. I formatted the h/d thinking that a
file may have been corrupted, re-installed the OS and
printer, shared the printer, and everybody was able to
print. Came in the next day *today*...and nobody can
connect to that printer. Everything was working fine
yesterday...I had several users able to print to this
machine...today only the local user can. Any
suggestions/help on this would be greatly appreciated...
 
What error are you getting?
Can you be able to ping the printer server using host name
from your client?

connected to the printer using network neighbougood from
any client and chechk the printer and then double click on
