I have one huge problem with printer sharing found by this video. When I try to access another computer on the network it says that the network path was not found. I tried adding the firewall rules for network discovery but it still doesn't work. I was wondering have you have a problem like that before?

The error code is 0x80070035 and I am using windows 7. I had this problem before when I had XP. Basically the error message says:

"Windows cannot access \\[PC name]"

Thankyou

[stickman968]

[faysalbest1]

how to find printer ip address ! please help

[showtime302]

if you have a network printer hooked up to a router login to the router check under status Lan. if its connected to a computer open up a command prompt type ipconfig /all on windows or ifconfig on linux

[faysalbest1]

okay thanks ! got that now it's asking for Network Administrator user id and Password ..... :S i got a 2wire router and a NetGear Router... NetGear router is really expencive once... and 2wire came with my internet... i m useing 2 wire now... so do u know which one is better... now i am useing 2 wire

[showtime302]

if the 2wire is a dsl modem ie verizon then you hae to use it and the netgear open up a web browser and type 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 in the address bar user id is admin password is password assuming it has been reset to factory default

[xXRedyzXx]

I suggest you press [MICROSOFT FLAG]+R

Type in cmd

Then type ipconfig and press enter,

Now look in the IP Adress or IPv4 In vista (Something like that)

It should say something like 192.168.0.XXX

That's your IP

[manofsheerawsomness]

[MarlonDC07]

does the pc have to be on to print?

[IDKNOTHINGJ16]

i got a windows xp computer being the printer computer and i clicked share on the printer and i went on my laptop and clicked add printer and found the printer on the printer computer i clicked it and it says WINDOWS CANNOT CONNECT TO THE PRINTER. ACESS IS DENIED. can i get some help?

[iCgalz]

On the computer that has the printer connected to it.. Open up "run" on the start pad. Type "cmd" then type "ipconfig" then enter.. It should show the computers ip adress.. Write the ip adress down. Go to your laptop do the same thing but do what the guy did in the video^ type your ip adress.. e.g. \\192.166.0.8.. Having done this add another "\". It should then show the printer. select it and it will work..

It's pretty much what the dude did in the video :)

[MARKTELEVISION]

can i have help im working with xp being the printer computer and vista not having a printer on a wireless conncction of the first one. CAN I PLZ HAVE HELP!?!!?

[WinnieAmos05]

how do we know the ip add of host computer

[davidl066]

go on the host computer. Click start, run.

Type "cmd". A black window will appear. Type "ipconfig" and you should see the ip address.

[HalfTheSpeed]

will this work if the printer is installed on xp, and i want to use it off vista?

[utdryan]

How do you share a folder over a network?

[gigafide]

Only if they are on your network. I show you how to do that in my google hacks 2.0 vid. Make sure you've got your network secure before sharing stuff.

[3tyson]

if u make it a network printer and u have bad securety u can get in from other computer easy and chance there settings even print from out of (the hackers) home

[crysisbestgame]

Hey, i see you like that vista look on your xp pc. I suggest getting a theme called Royal Noir. It is really the zune theme with black replacing all the yucky orange bits. Oh and it might require uxtheme patcher but if it doesn't work get uxtheme
