My wife and I each have our own PC in separate rooms. I subscribe to DSL and use a Linksys 4-port router, to which both PCs are wire-connected. What do I have to do, or buy and do, to be enabled to use the printer connected to her PC? I use Win 98SE and she uses Win ME.
I know this is simple stuff, but see my bio. Thanks.

hmmm quite a tricky problem, i would suggest this one. enable the File and printer sharing on both computers in that way you can both use the printer. but i would suggest that you have to install the printer driver on both pc for them to work.

if things dont work out i would recommend use a printserver for it.
