It's not the printer, it's the network (Error code 0x80070035)
I'm moving Laptop can no longer access shared printer/files on home network here, simply because the issue is not printer related; it's network-related, and I wanted to get the problem updated under a better title.
In a nutshell:
- Win7 laptop is connecting fine to internet via home wireless network
- Same Win7 laptop cannot, however, access my Win7 desktop - the files, or more importantly for these purposes, the printer USB-connected to that computer and shared with users on the network
Attempts to access my PC from her laptop - whether clicking on its icon in the network view from her laptop, or specifying it by pathname (\\mywin7\), fail with
Error code 0x80070035None of the following has fixed it:
The network path was not found.
- Turning my firewall off completely
- Stopping her AVG antivirus
- Starting in safe mode and doing a Malwarebytes sweep
- Using msconfig to do a selective boot with none of the services started
- Mucking with the TCP/IP settings on either computer
- Playing with the services on either computer
- Specifying the printer path by IP address name
- System restoring to an earlier point in time
From her computer I can ping mine by name and by IP address.
Every other computer in our house - XP ones and Win7 - can print to the printer connected to my computer, and every other computer has normal network access to my computer.
I don't have a Norton product - ever - on my computer or hers.
