Correct. If the printer is a Network Printer with an IP Address assigned then yes those home edition computers should be able to print, but not if you're sharing it with another computer from your network.
wireless printing
I have a win server 03, I have a wireless router setup as an access point at one of my builings. I have win xp pro on my laptop. I am able to connect to the wireless and the if I go to my printers and faxes and add a printer I am able to add a printer by typing the name of the PC and share name of printer.
A couple of my employees has win vista and win 07 home eddtion on there laptops. Now when I try to do the same thing to add the printer so they will be able to print from it, it says it can not find it.
None of these are joined to the domain. Mine also is not.
It does give me the same options to searc for the printer. It just does not find it like mine does. Is that because they have home edtion. Is there anything I can do?
