Tuesday, July 22, PM. Sorry for long time since my reply, I can now see the rest of the network again but I am still getting the same message. Make sure that you have typed the name correctly, and that the printer is contacted to the network " Like before, I did not type it, I selected it from a list of availible printers.
I can also see and access shared files on any computer with shared folders. How is the Aspire laptop connected to your network? Ethernet; wireless? From reading over again, there are other computers also connected? Kodak All-in-one; label printer; others? With such a network going on multiple computers and multiple printers and running two operating systems and with old desktop computers; and wireless and Ethernet and shared USB connections.
I feel that you may want to rethink this whole network approach! I would suggest that you do similar to what you have been doing. This will help with reducing congestion on the entire network. And use a network printer that has Ethernet directly to a network hub all setup with your workgroup and possible static individual IP addresses, so as printer sharing through USB does not exist.
That's my take, as there are just too many options here. Sometimes when I have gone to a small local business to setup their workgroup and printers, I have started from the start! Ethernet cables etc Resetup the workgroup network and confirm all computers see each-other Setup 1 network printer not shared USB setup all printer settings on the printer itself and then confirm all workgroup computers see it. Continue with other printers, including local only non-networked printers Setup wireless computers and local printers and network printers Then test a bit!

Both are wireless and both can connect to these printer.
Now, I also did try using using a network hub and it did work. The Kodak printer was incompatible. I naturally used a static IP for printers. That is a rule of thumb. I have ran networks in businesses where I have worked with both printers Ethernet connected, older printers with servers attached, and locally attached printers shared from computers.
