Lightbulb Printer Sharing

Ok. I'm trying to share my pritner thru my router with my sis PC.

Before the routing/sharing was fine. Now she can't print from her own pc and having me to print it from my own pc.

I would like to know the following stuff that is needed to have shared printer working.

What do I need to setup correctly in order for me to have the printer start sharing again?

Hey,

Im new to the forums but, I do know pretty many things about Windows and a couple of other OS.

Before I can start giving out all the every possible soultions in the world. Does the printer work when you disable printer sharing?
