Help. I want to share 1 printer currently connected to my
desktop with my laptop. Both run windows XP. I have
turned on printer sharing on the desktop. I then try
to "Add a printer" using the wizard. I am lost from this
point because I am unsure where I should browse to find
the shared printer. Please help.
 
Hi,

Click "next" after starting the wizard, choose the option to look in a
network. On the next tab, use the option to browse the network. If it is
properly shared, you should see it under the machine name that it is
connected to. Select it and follow the prompts.
