Sharing Printers with 98 and win2k machine need help.

David Y
I'm trying to get two computers (one running win2k and the other winME) to share the same printer HP DeskJet 930C. File sharing works fine. But I can't seem to share printers. When I tried installing additional drivers WinME wasn't there so I installed the Win95/98 drivers but it still didn't work.

How do I set up Peer to Peer with Win2K and WinMe

bando2000
I use to have both of my systems connected together with WinMe. They both have ethernet cards and both are connected to a hub which is connected to a cable modem. I used to be able to transfer files and play LAN games without a hitch.
