Patch reliability is unclear, but widespread attacks make patching prudent. Go ahead and patch, but watch out for potential problems. |
When I try to get to the printer from Start (computername) I see the printer. When I select it I get this message:
“Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000709). Make sure that you have typed the name correctly, and that the printer is connected to the network.”
I looked up error 709 and it says printer name is invalid. The printer name is KODAK5300AiO. 
One more thing, I can see the printer but it isn’t in the printer folder as suggested by your link. Does that mean it isn’t shared even though printer sharing is on, and password sharing is off?
Doc, I finally “solved” the printer problem. After spending a couple of days on the problem, I used all of my technical skills, and bought a wireless printer!!! 
Now all my PCs can see/use it. Thanks for your help.
Glad you got it worked out. Thanks for posting back with your solution. Might keep someone else from 
Doc,
I found the following that explains why I couldn’t get printer sharing to work – well, it explains that it is a known issue. So at least now I feel vindicated.
