I have a cable connection with a wireless router with a wired (WinXP
Pro) laptop, a wired Win98 SE desktop and a wireless WinXP Home
desktop.
I have set up print server and can see from all PCs.

the laptop. I get the "server storage not available" msg.
Any ideas?

Is the error message one of these?

   Not enough server storage is available to process this command.

   Not enough memory to complete transaction. Close some applications
   and retry.

If so, the message is misleading. The problem is probably that an
antivirus program has changed an obscure TCP/IP setting. Please see
this Microsoft Knowledge Base article for a likely solution,
specifying a value of 15 for IRPStackSize on the laptop:

Antivirus Software May Cause Event ID 2011
