    • Server
    • TCP/IP Netbios helper
    • Workstation
    EDIT: Shut down both computers for 2 minutes and restart with PC1 first, with the printer attached. Make sure both machines have the same username and password. Check your firewall that a printer port or the above services are not being blocked.
