23929 2001-11-08 06:54:00 Hi,

I have a simple cross-over network at and office and an HP Deskjet 710C printer. The problem is that every time I try to print from the computer not connected to the printer the HP Toolbox comes up saying that it can not establish 2-way communication. Would like to know how to get HP Printer going so that the networked PC can print documents without having to save them on the other PC and printing them at the end of the day.

When you do, you have to tell it that it is a networked printer.
