Re: Printing to remote printer



Hello Curtis,

Thank you for posting back!

I am sorry for the delayed response due to the weekend. Please understand
that the newsgroups are staffed weekdays by Microsoft Support professionals
to answer your systems and applications questions. Your understanding is
greatly appreciated!

I understand that after disable the Firewall and the issue solved! It seems
that the firewall was enabled silently, since in my fist reply question 4,
if we turn off the firewall will the issue persists.

Here, I found following Documents for you, please see:
