Hey,
For awhile, I had a printer connected to mp LPT1 and shared as "LaserJet". My brother is in my workgroup and he could access the printer with no login or password with no problems. Now all of the sudden I take off simple file sharing, and it asks for a user/password. I re-enabled simple sharing and it didn't fix it. I do not want him having an account on my machine. Is this a local security policy setting?
Thanks
Tyler

Check to see if everyone is included in the share with adequate permissions to access the printer.
