network printer

[chris45]

I have my computers networked, one has 98SE and the printer the other has XP. The situation is that I've got my XP system booted and later decide to print something, I boot the 98 system which has the printer. When I send the print job I get a message that the printer cannot be located. I end up having to reboot the XP system to get it to recognize the printer. Is there an easier way to do this rather than rebooting?

I would remove the network printer installed on XP, make sure the 98 machine is booted, and reinstall the network printer on XP.
