This is funny but its true. I have 3 vista business machines and a printer in a network domain 'workgroup'. Apart from administrator account i created 3 accounts with admin priviledges. i copied administrator profile to these 3 accounts. Administrator and account 'A' can print but not the rest. I copied profile from 'A' to 'B' and 'C' and still 'B' and 'C' can't print. What i'm I doing wrong.

See if you can get some clues from any of these?

Network printing blocked by firewall



File and Printer Sharing in Windows Vista

Getting Started with Windows Firewall with Advanced Security

What are you seeing in the Event Viewers?

Are the Sharing Access Permissions correct too, sometimes you have to add the actual Username rather than just rely on the Administrators (or Everyone) Group?
