printing on another computer

I am connected to the internet and have a routing wireless to another computer in my office.  My printer is not wireless.  How can I send print via internet on my main computer?  My main thing is windows 7, the computer I want to print via internet is windows XP

Hello
It does not matter wire or wireless, if the computers are on the same network (e.g., sharing the same router).

Configure the files and printers shared on computers and they connect and share.

I don't know what are BONES involved next to Vista

The following covers XP/Vista/Win 7 adapt to your needs.

Win7 when configured on the peer-to-peer network has three types of configurations of sharing.

Homegroup = only works between Win 7 computers. This type of configuration, it is very easy to entry level users to start sharing network.

Network of home or work = fundamentally similar (and better) to the previous Working Group sharing methods which allow you to control what, how and to whom the records would be shared with.

Public share = network Public (as Internet Café) in order to reduce security risks.

To get best results connect to each computer system screen and set all the computers to be on a bearing the same name of Working Group , while each computer has its own unique name.

Make sure that the software firewall, AV, or other security components allow free local traffic on all network computers. If you use the 3rd group of security, firewall native Vista/XP must be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#trusted
Please Note that some 3rd party software firewall/AV/security costumes continue to block aspects of the Local traffic even it they are off (off). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic.

If you end up with the 3rd party software uninstalled or disabled, make sure that Windows native firewall is active .

------------------------------

Network Win 7 with another version of Windows as a work network (works very well if all computers are Win 7 also).

In the center of the network, by clicking on the type of network opens the window to the right.

Choose your network type. Note the check box at the bottom and check/uncheck depending on your needs.

In Win XP Pro with simple sharing Off, you can visually see the Permission/security level and set them up at your convenience.

When you have finished the configuration of the system, it is recommended to restart everything the router and all computers involved.

-------------

If you have permission and security issues with Vista/Win7, check the following settings.

Point to a folder that wants to share do right click and choose Properties.

In the properties

Click on the Security tab shown in the bellows of the photo on the right) and verify that users and their permissions (see photo below Centre and left) are configured correctly. Then do the same for the authorization tab.

This screen shot is to Win 7, Vista menus are similar.

http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/permission-security.jpg

The Security Panel and the authorization Panel, you need to highlight each user/group and consider that the authorization controls are verified correctly.

When everything is OK, restart the network (router and computer).

* Note . The groups and users listed in the screen-shoot are just an example. Your list will focus on how your system is configured.

* Note . All the users who are allowed to share need to have an account onall computers that they are allowed to connect to.

Everyone is an account, that means a group of all users who already have an account now as users. It is available to avoid the need to configure permission for each on its own, it does not mean all those who feel that they would like to connect.

  • I am not able to access a shared printer from another computer on my network. How to solve this?

    Recently, I replaced my NETGEAR wired router with a NETGEAR WNDR3300 Wireless Gateway.  While I am able to share internet access both wired and wireless, on my PC I have shared my printer and several directories.  My wife's PC does not show my PC in the network, but if I ping my PC against hers, it solves the IP address, but the ping times out in vain.  This network allows to work with the original router.  I show PC my wife on the network on my PC.  Since my PC can not be seen on his PC, I can't add the printer shared on his PC.  How to solve this?

    Configure the firewall on each computer to trust the local network and allow the sharing of files and printer.

    More than one firewall running is likely to cause problems.  Select McAfee or Windows Firewall and disable it.

    I suspect that McAfee needs to be configured to approve the new router network.  I don't know what version of what McAfee product, you have, but here's how to do it on the program McAfee Security Center provided by Comcast:

    1 double-click on the Red M in the system tray.
    2. click on Internet & network .
    3. click on Configure .
    4. by firewall protection is enabled , click Advanced .
    5. click on networks .
    6. If your router network does not trust , click Network, click on edit and select Trusted then in the menu.

    You can also get help in forums Community of McAfee .

    The print can be different depending on the print settings and the settings of the computer on the other computer. If you want the same settings, then you should change the settings accordingly before you take the print out.

  • How do I clear the message "printer is used by another computer.

    922 MPX will not be printed.  ' display message: printer currently in use by another computer.

    Hi sjp.

    Reinstall the printer using the latest drivers on the Canon USA site may resolve the problem you are experiencing. When reinstalling the drivers, please make sure that any antivirus firewall software that is on your computer is temporarily disabled, because these programs can sometimes block the printer detected during installation. Once the printer is correctly installed, the software protection can be reactivated.

    Please click here to access the drivers and software page for the PIXMA MX922. Once the initial download to your model page, follow these steps:

    1. check that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop is correct and if this isn't the case, please click on the drop down menu to select your operating system.

    2. then, click the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED DOWNLOADS" section and click on the MINI MASTER CONFIGURATION file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click the box below the button DOWNLOAD, and then click DOWNLOAD to start the download. The time for the download process can vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.

    Once you have downloaded the Setup file of Mini Master, please double-click it and follow the instructions to reinstall the printer on your computer.  If you are still experiencing difficulties after you have reinstalled the drivers, please call or write us using one of the methods on the page contact us for further assistance.

    I wanted to use a printer with my laptop lexmark. The printer was used with another computer and it worked fine, but when I tried to use it with the laptop, I was not able find the installation disk and tried to install without it. The laptop produces a message indicating he could find the internet facility info if I accepted this. He had apparently fulfilled this function, and I tried to print a document. The document has been printed, but the result was so low, that it was not readable. I then found the installation disk and tried to restart but was confused by the messages and options. I don't have a printer that prints. Help.

  • F39o prints on one computer but not another

    Hello

    I bought a PSC F390 laptop from my mother-in-law on Windows 7 Ultimate.  He set up the fine the drivers downloaded and updates, watch as your default and not display any errors in Device Manager.

    Here, it will not be printed.  Whenever I have try sound as if I have just send the task, and I get "Word cannot print due to a problem with the installation of the current printer", or "failed to get properties because the printer returned an error.

    No errors appear the diagnoses of the printer and the printer HP doctor has no idea either.

    Now, I excluded anything with the printer by printing a lappie for my girlfriend, also on Win7, with the same downloaded driver and the same printer head, and it's there, so I'm stumped.  I would be grateful for any suggestion...

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.  In fact, I managed to sort in the end.  It has nothing to do with the printer (as I suspected anyway because it printed on another machine), it was to the bottom for the operating system do not install correctly.  I did a repair install using the same disc I used to install the OS, and since then it has worked well.  I can only conclude that the spooler to print may or addressing of parts of the software USB port do not installed completely when I did the initial reconstruction.

    Computers right?

    Thank you much.  I hope that this episode is of some use to others who have the same question.
