Hello! I have two computers and I have networked them through router, but only one of them (one on which is attached printer) can print. Other computer cannot print on this printer. Both computers are running Windows XP professional operating system (service pack two is installed). Thank you in advance!

Hello! If you want to print on your printer from other computer, you will need to share printer. To do that, first on computer on which is attached printer go to printer and faxes in Control Panel and right click on printer icon and choose to share it. On the second computer access printer and faxes in Control Panel and click on Add new printer and add shared printer.
