5 pc in peer-to-peer
Win XP has the shared laser
All other PCs use the printer perfectly.

On the Windows ME pc, when I "Add Printer" / "Browse" it CAN see the shared folder on the XP BUT it cannot see the shared laser printer.

Any ideas?

The issue is probably related to a print driver issue. Is a WinME print driver available through the share for that printer?
