Default Printer sharing


I have a wireless network that has a laptop (XP Home) and a PC (XP Pro)
attached. A HP Deskjet 610C is connected to the PC via a serial cable.

I have installed the printer drivers onto both computers however i cannot
see the printer from my Laptop and it won't install as a network printer
because of this.

If i try it the other way around and connect the printer to the laptop i can
see the Printer from the PC.

What am i doing wrong?

Default Re: Printer sharing
i can see the PC name but the printer is not showing. I have tried to alter
the IP address of the PC and still nothing.

What do you think then?
