I cannot print from a Win 98se to a Win 2000. I am able to share the HP940c on the network with others (Win xp). I have installed the correct drivers on the 98 and it also had me do additional 98 drivers on the 2000. The 98 can access the Win 2000files and you can see the printer, but it will not print. The error reads cannot print due to an unknown system error restart and try again, but I still get the same
error. Joanne

remove all drivers from the 98 en windows 2000 machine

go to netwerk neighbourhoud and search for the shared printer
drag and drop the printer into the printer folder of 98 or 2000
probibly the machine will ask for a driver

this should fix the probl.

On the Windows 98 system change your print processor driver from EMF to RAW. If that does work for you make sure that the printer is shared and that the Win 98 has the correct permissions to the printer. On final step is to download the latest drivers from HP, there maybe a problem with the drivers that you have and you may need to update the print drivers.
