I didn't install any drivers or do anything to share the printer Posted 23 October - PM.

There is another workable solution which also requires taking your Vista notebook to the printer you want to hit at the XP machine and plug in the USB cord to trigger the driver install I had to do it twice due to errors and hiccups installing then go ahead and install it as a network printer as the article linked above also states. This is all the more annoying because it was the kind of thing I could do in XP only environments in a matter of seconds.

This is a problem on my home network. File sharing turned on, print sharing turned on, password mode turned off, guest account enabled. Computer name Akasa Printer shared as Canon - permissions set for Everyone to be able to manage print jobs. Folder shared as Data - permissions set for Everyone to be able to change files.

Have also specifically added the Guest user. File sharing turned on. Tuesday, September 23, PM. Hi Branty, I suggest that you disable the firewall and anti-virus program on the Windows Vista computer.
