Problem: The printer on the Win2K machine is
not "visible" on the Win98SE machine.

Is it likely the problem lies in the Win2K configuration,
or is it more likely that the problem is on the Win98SE
machine?

Any suggestions of where to look, or KB articles will be
much appreciated.

If you reply directly, just remove the words "nospam" in
my email address and change the "dot" to . .

Thanks.
 
hi

can you see the pc that have the printer attached?
can you see the printer from another win2k pc?

well , try to share the printer with a name without blanks.
 
Thanks for the suggestion. Through several cross-posts, I
learned that the share name of the printer should not
exceed 12 characters, and should not include blanks.

I had violated both limitations. I've corrected the share
name, and everything now works just fine!
