| | Cannot connect printer on home network Hi I have a printer connected to a Windows 7 PC, the printer is earmarked to Share, and am trying to connect to that printer from a Vista PC through the "Add Printer" dialogue. The I can see the Windows 7 PC but when I try to connect to it a Connect box comes up asking for a username and password. I have never set up a username and/or password on the Windows 7 PC, I have tried the Computer Name, Full Computer Name and Description , leaving the password field blank but cannot connect to the Windows 7 PC and so cannot get to see the printer. How can I get to connect to the Windows 7 PC? Thanks Daniel |

| | I can see why no one replied, I finally got it working but what a ridiculous rigmarole to simply connect a printer in the same house as the two PC's, I had no problems with Vista to Vista. What an overkill on the security. Cheers Daniel |
