I'm trying to install a network printer in a Windows 7 computer. However, I keep on getting this error, "Printer Driver not installed. Access is Denied." I can print from my other windows 7 computer within my network and also I can ping the printer from the affected pc.
btw here are the steps i've done to try to install it:
ReplyDelete1. Click on Start, Device and Printers
2. Click on Add a printer from the top menu
3. Select Add a Local Printer
4. Select Create a New Port and the type as Standard TCP/IP Port. Click Next.
5. In the Port Name box, type IP address of the printer (i.e. 192.168.X.X). Press Next.
6. Find the drivers via Have Disk > Browse > Nex >Install
then i got a error printer driver was not install.Access is Denied.
Deleteare these the same steps you did to install the printer in the other computer?
ReplyDeleteok, try this first, make sure you are logged in with admin privileges.
Share the printer from the PC where it is installed. Then get its local IP address (192.168.x.x)
Now, go to the (subject) computer go to start type in \\192.168.x.x (the IP address of the other computer).
If you see the printer Icon double click it and proceed as accordingly.
yey! That did it! Thanks a lot! I use to do this in windows XP, I never know this would work in windows 7 too. In fact i forgot about it.
ReplyDeletethanks again!
Good thing it helped you with your printer issue. Just for reference what are the brand and model of your printer?
