Also make sure that "Allow monitoring of shared printers" is selected in the Monitoring Preferences dialog box. *(Windows Me/98/95) On the server, double-click the Network icon in Control Panel and make sure that the "File and printer sharing for Microsoft Networks" component is installed. Then, on the server AND clients, if the "IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol" is installed, make sure that the "TCP/IP Protocol" is also installed. 1-2.
