Should be interesting to try at least. I'll let you know how it goes. Dossy: I was originally having problems getting it to work at all because my anti-virus firewall setting was set too high.

Let us know how it turns out!

My wife and I are on a home network. My computer is directly connected to the router; I have her computer set up to receive a wireless connection. The printer is also connected to my computer directly. As it is now, I can share my printer with her via the network, so she can print as long as my computer is on. However, I have to choose to share it again every time my computer is turned or restarted. I'm going to give this solution a try. Thanks! I’ve been experiencing problem.
