Printer connected to home PC (workgroup) – can i print from my work laptop?

by robokun3000 . Updated 19 years, 5 months ago

I’m trying to set up a kind of print server. I have an HP printer connected to my home desktop PC (which is on a workgroup) via USB. That works fine. I want to print over my wireless network from my laptop which is on a domain (because I use it at work). I don’t want to add a workgroup to my laptop because the IT guys would probably freak out (a configuration they don’t support). Both PCs are connected to a Linksys wireless router and I use a MAC address clone to overcome Comcast’s annoying “feature” of charging you for more than IP address.

Any ideas?
