I run a local network at home (BT1200)with 2 pcs
connected. We both access the internet constantly via
Broadband. I recently purchased a Minolta Magicolor 2300DL
laser printer, which is physically connected to my pc. I
wish this printer to be shared with the other pc. From the
other pc, files can be shared, but the 2nd pc cannot see
or print to the printer. I've tried everything but still
no success. I read that local firewalls can block ports,
but the 2nd pc can view shared files which reside on the
hard drive of the 1st pc. Help!
