Umm, Sharon, you didn't answer all of my questions. I had reasons for asking
them, <s>.
Anyway, if you can't see any shared folders on Computer 1 from Computer 2,
then the network isn't properly set up. If you can see shared folders on
Computer 1 from Computer 2, but not the shared printer, then I suggest you
remove the printer from Computer 1 and reinstall it again, then share it,
making sure you use a valid share name as instructed by the fine print (I
forget what the restrictions are, exactly, and I don't have an easy way to
find that out at this moment.) Don't just reinstall the printer without
removing it and any leftover instances from past attempts.
