i have an xp computer and lap top and two vista comps. the two xp comps can
see a printer on one machine but not the printer on the other machine. When i
try to ping the none recognizing one i get a timed out. Also the two xps can
see both vista machines on the add new printer but only one printer can be
seen.
 
Hi
Successful Sharing involves some general consideration in Network settings,

As well as specific adjustment of each computer according to what it is
allowed to be shared.
