I guess nobody has an answer for this. I might add that the computers are networked thru a Netgear router. I am now been able to print with the second XP computer but trying to print with the 98SE computer is just a no go. Even removing the items placed in the queue by the 98SE computer is a hassel. They wont delete until the computer is booted.

I have a home network consisting of three computers. Two of the computers have Win XP with SP2. The third has Win 98SE. I have a HP OfficeJet 4110 hooked up to my main computer (with WinXP). I am having great difficulty getting the other two computers to print thru the network. At one time I was able to print from the other XP computer but I`ve lost that ability (why I don`t know). But the main problem is in getting the Win 98SE computer to print. It will place the item to be printed in the queue to be printed but it just won`t print. As long as the item remains in the printer`s queue it ties up the printer so that nothing can be printed from the main computer. I have to remove the items in the queue and reboot the computer to get the printer operative. Any ideas where I should start to correct this problem? TIA 



Is the printer USB?


Yes
