I have two systems running Windows XP Pro and on System
A, I have an attached HP PCS 2410. On System B, I can
only access the shared printer on System A if my logon ID
on System B is the Same as one on System A. How do I
define the printer on System A so that any User ID on
System B can access the Printer without there being a
identical User ID on System A.

Either some simple instructions would be appreciated or a
pointer to the appropiate instructions that I need to
enable full sharing of my printer with any user on any
system within my local network.
