You may have to re-share the printer on your machine and then re-configure it on your wifes.My main computer has a printer linked to it by USB. My wife has her own laptop which is linked by wifi. This works well. Previously I had my printer (the same one) linked by parallel cable and my wife could ask for a document to be printed via my printer. This worked. Now that I have changed to a USB cable I am having problems getting the printer to be recognised by the laptop. Main computer is running Mint KDE. The laptop is running Mint Xfce. I am puzzled as to why it worked OK before but now, when I try to set up the link from the laptop it does not find the printer. And yes, I realise that the main computer and the printer should be both powered up. Does anyone have any suggestions please? Thanks Neil
Cos its on USB now its not the same printer that was on the parallel cable! Tom te tom te tom -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
