The enabling of the guest account did the trick.  Thanks!

Hi Harry,

I did the permissions on the printer.

What else will that open me up to if I enable the guest account?

Thanks,
Bobby

Options:

Enable the guest account on the XP Pro box

Set perms on the printer to give Everyone access to it.

Hey all,

I have an XP Pro box with a shared printer on it.

I can install the printer on the Home boxes in which it requires a
logon/password.  So I give it the administrator login and pw.  I can then
print to the printer form the Home box.  But, if I reboot the Home
machines,
they can no longer print to the printer.

What am I doing wrong?  Any advice?

Thanks,
Bobby
