Hello,

I have a Windows Vista at home and connecting to Windows XP through remote desktop. I'm having problems when sharing the printer to the XP machine. I made sure that the "Printers" is checked off on the the "Local Resources" from the RDC options. Still, I can't find the printer from the printer selection when trying to print.

But, when I connect to another Vista machine at work, I can see my printer from the printer selection list.

Is this a Vista - XP problem? Is it possible to share my printer, at home, to my XP at the office?

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0

Hello

Try selecting " Local color printer " from the printer dialog box. It should change to the name of that local printer once selected if it is connected and online.
