    Printer Sharing Issue


    Hi!

    I just upgraded my home pc to win7. My laptop has had it for some time. Previously, before either had win7, I had a home network set up and could print from any user on the laptop. Now, I can only print from the administrator. When I try to add the printer on any other user acct it cannot find the printer. I've been at this for hours and can't figure it out. I have a workgroup set up.

    Thanks for your help. Let me know if you need more information.

    Blessings,

    Thanks. It turned out to be an issue with my firewall settings.
