psklenar 0 Posted January 7, 2001 Okay, I've got a home LAN (behind a D-Link DI-704 broadband gateway - aka: router & firewall). I've got a W2KPro workstation as my main system and two laptops - one W98 and one WNT4. I've got file sharing working among them just fine. However, I've got two printers hanging off the W2K box that I can't seem to access from the other systems. Problem seems to be that "The Server doesn't have the appropriate drivers availalble". Okay, so I do some more digging and finally found where I could configure the shared printers to support both WNT4 and W98 ... unfortunately my system then requested the "Windows 2000 Server CD" be installed!!! Argh!! Is there any way for a W2k workstation to share a printer with a non-W2K workstation without having the W2K Server CD???
