There are lots of ways to do each task. I prefer (for no good reason) the "net use" and the "net share" commands. Actually, before I realized how inconvenient it is to access a printer which upstairs from a computer that is downstairs, I enable sharing of the Photo 1280 in the printer driver panel. It is lots less wear and tear on the legs just to buy an cheap printer for the downstairs computer. Jim Jim
