TP:

Open JETCET
Add Network Printer
Select 'Connected to a network domain server or workgroup with a share name'
in the bottom window 'enter a printer path to a workgroup or computer with a shared printer' you need to type in your share name.

To find this, either figure out your computer name, or your computer IP address.

Computer name: Control Panel, System - your computer name is listed in there.
IP address: (XP) Start, Run, CMD, ok, ipconfig - your IP is probably 192.168.x.x
Vista: Orb, CMD (enter), ipconfig

My computer name is 'MONSTER' or '192.168.1.9'

so, on your TP, you want to enter your path like this: \\computer\printer

My specific examples can be \\MONSTER\printer or \\192.168.1.9\printer

once you get that typed in, click next

Select your mfg and model number - or something reasonably close.

If you don't have your printer listed, or anything close - I'd select HP's LaserJet Monochrome Series - this is typically a very generic printer driver that will print to almost anything else. Don't expect color to work with this driver.

It will ask you to give your printer a nick name, and print a test page.

Name it what you'd like, and print a test page.

Select your paper size (Letter is 8.5x11) and select next.

... you should have a piece of paper coming out of your printer a couple seconds later.

*IF* for some reason you get prompted for a username, password and domain, enter your windows login information... your domain in most cases will be your computer name. (I figure that any of you who are actually part of an AD domain will know your domain, username and password info)

Press Finish, and now you should have a shortcut to your printer in JETCET

with you so far, up to Security Tab. there is not a security tab.
