Hey all,
Here is my situation. I work a lot from home and the office. My company gave me a laptop since I float between locations. When I'm at the office, I can go in and add nearby printers. When I'm at home, the only way I can print is to disconnect my printer from my desktop computer and plug it into my laptop. What I'd love to do is be able to print from my laptop to my printer that's still hooked to my computer.
I've got both my computer and my laptop hooked up to a router. Normally, I would just share my printer and everything would be easy. However, since my home computer is setup for a workgroup environment and my laptop is setup for a domain environment, it's not working as easy as I hoped. Both machines are running XP pro.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this to work? Thank you very much in advance. Let me know if you need any more information.
Kurt
