can see printer from xp but not 7
I have Windows 7 installed on 2 PCs. One just has 7 the other dual boots 7 and XP Pro. No matter which PC I hook the printer up to, the other Windows 7 PC cannot connect to it on the network. XP Pro can connect and print remotely.
I'm losin' it. I tried homegroup no homegroup media sharing on, off.. I can see the Icon in Network explorer window. cannot connect from 7.
I have it as Public network, file and print sharing on, allow modify files on, allow everyone to manage the printer yadda yadda.
It just won't work if the client is 7.
The error codes don't get any google hits.
I can access and modify files in both directions but it won't let me install the network printer in 7.
All PCs are in workgroup named WORKGROUP
password is off
homegroup control is off
It's like 7 just won't agree on permissions.
