Solve : Basic Workgroup Help?

Answer»

I have been trying to get my two computers to share a printer.

The two computers(desktops) are connected by a router with standard ethernet cables. Computer 1 has a printer that I'd like computer 2 to be able to access. So, I created workgroup "HOME" on computer 1, the one with the printer.

On computer 2, I WENT system>computer name> CHANGE workgroup and typed in "HOME".

However, when I try to add the printer, nothing shows up! All computers and printers are on and have been restarted.

If I'm not doing this correctly, how can I do it so that both my computers can access the same printer?Hello follow these two LINKS
