Good info, but not sure that I can use it. I have a Canon Pixma MP500. I guess I can safely say that it is NOT a network(able) printer. If I network/share it via XP on my primary, laptop, computer, does it have to be on all the time to allow another computer to print? Thanks.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
You have made my son and I very happy to be able to view movies and print from his own computer through the network. I am happy because he will not be able to delete work files by mistake. My son is 4 and thinks he can do anything….. and will in due time.
Again, thank you!!
