Trying to share an HP 720C. ALl seems to be set up correct. Getting error that says "print error to \\xxxxx\PCxxx.... My question is: what am I missing? Does the share name have to be the same as the printer name? or vice-versa? This happens inWIN95 to WIN95 and W2K to WIN95. The local HP720C is on a WIN95 machine. Thanks in advance for any help.

The share name doesn't have to be the same with the printer name. If you are working in a workgroup, the username and password in your win2k machine must be present and have printing privileges in your w95 machine. the username and password on both machine must be the same.
