I have tried this with no knowledge of networking setup.
I have a built in adaptor in laptop. It has no external connection to other computers.

I attached printer sharing to this (that's all I did) then when setting the network on VPC 2004 I found my network adaptor in the list and selected it.

I then went to add a printer in VPC and it browsed but could only find 'Microsoft Network' but not the printer. I typed in the name of the printer but it could not find it.
I suspect I am missing something big.
Can anybody please walk me through this step by step?
Thanks
