Win2k tcp/ip to win98

by bowler . Updated 24 years, 1 month ago

I’m having an interesting issue with a shared label printer on my network.

I have a win98 PC sharing a label printer. Another win98 machine can print to that share just fine. However, a win2k PC can add that printer to it’s printer’s but cannot print to it.

I don’t get an error message but I do get a message stating “Cancelled printing”, with an “Ok” button.

I uninstalled the label printing software and the printer from the win2k machine and shut it off. Turned it back on and installed everything again but, still no luck.

I called the label printer manufacturer and they said it’s a network issue and they don’t support network issue’s. I’ve checked the Microsoft TechNet and found no help there.

Just wondering if anyone else may have an idea as to what I could try.

Thanks:)
