#1 make sure you have the exact same user name and password for the win98 machine on the win2k machine (win2k allows you to logon as diffrent users)

#2 make sure win98 is in the same domain or workgroup as the win2k server

#3 give the printer a share name!!!

thnks for your suggest guys.
1. The win98 pc have the same domain with win2k but not the same subnet
2. I don't think the use the same user name on both win98 and win2k. The printer already share to everyone.
3. Of course give a sharename to printer.

Any others suggests

THnsk
