How do you stop WinXP to auto-discover network printer?

Jimmy
 
CLICK START, SELECT SETTINGS, SELECT PRINTER AND FAXES, AT THE TOP OF THE WINDOW SELECT TOOLS, IN THE NEXT WINDOW SELECT FOLDER OPTIONS, IN THE NEXT WINDOWS SELECT VIEW AND UNCHECK THE AUTOMATICALLY SEARCH FOR NETWORK FOLDERS AND PRINTERS. CLICK ON APPLY, OK THE SYSTEM WILL NO LONGER SEEK NETWORKED PRINTERS.

If life knocks you down, get back up and live.
