Re: Problems with printer sharing on a wireless network.



If this posts 2 times it is cause I received an error message when I
attempted to post it the first time.

The printer name is Canon S750 prefaced with the name of the PC it is
connected to. I think it is \\your-9k1ay6x2a2.

I did not purposely post this three times, due to supposed errors when I
clicked on post, they got posted anyhow.

The answer to all three of your questions is Yes, Yes, and Yes.

I have uninstalled reinstalled printers from both machines several
times.
The printer is working with the media center PC to which it is
attached.
I
can see Media Center PC from my laptop in network neighborhood. For
the
life
of me I cannot figure out how to get the printer shared across my
network
now.

One post is enough!

My network got all the latest updates and I certainly haven't gotten
any
recent printing problems. Did you try to uninstall and reinstall the
printer? Does it print successfully from the PC to which it is
attached?
Can the notebook still see the MCE PC?

Prior to the massive Microsoft updates this week, I was successfully
using
a
Media Center PC as a print server on my home wireless network. I
have
a
Canon S750 printer attached to the MC PC. I also have a XP home
laptop
which
is wirelessly connected to my Linksys router.

I exclusively was able to print from my XP laptop to the Canon
printer
and
now I am unable to do so. This occurred after the recent Microsoft
updates
to my XP HOme laptop.

Help Please!!!!!!!!!
