HP LaserJet again, but through share
Config:
Old desktop in house has HP 1012 laserjet shared (running XP 32).Issue:
Little home network connected through Netgear Router
New Desktop running either XP 64 or W7 64
In XP I have the ablility to select a driver for the shared printer even if wondows doesn't think it is the correct driver. There are several that will actaully work.The difference in my situation is the share over the network. I can get the system to print when the printer is directly connected to the Win7 machine, but I can't get it work shared.
In Win7 (and I think Vista though I never really used it) I have not found a way around the system telling me it won't work and that's that.
