I have two computers on the same network—one wireless (laptop) and one hardwired (desktop). The laptop is linked directly to the printer in another room via a USB cable. I’m trying to print from my desktop but can’t see the laptop. Both are running Windows 10, and both are connected to a private network (one Ethernet, the other Wi-Fi SSID). Printer sharing is already active.
