I have a Dell desktop computer with Windows 98. I also use my Dell Latitude laptop with Windows ME. Both computers usually reside on the same desk. I have them connected to a router and then to my modem. This works fine.
Both computers recognized my HP printer; the laptop found the HP printer on my desktop and printed when requested.
Recently, I purchased a Lexmark X6170 four-in-one printer. I connected it as per instructions. I was able to install the print drivers to my desktop and it works fine.
But...I cannot figure out how to get my laptop computer to 'see' the Lexmark printer. I have tried numerous ways to attempt to get my laptop to see the print drivers on my desktop but I cannot understand how to do this.
I would be grateful to learn how to set things up so that I can use my new Lexmark X6170 from both my desktop and laptop.
Sincere thanks.
Also, I still haven't figured out how to share files between my laptop and desktop.
