Sharing for computers running different versions of the OS in a networked environment has always been difficult due to differences in operating systems. But thanks to the efforts of Microsoft, the problem gradually began to recede into the background. Today, if XP and seven are installed in your home or office, then you can easily organize a single network for file sharing and collaboration between these two systems. In this article I will describe what actions should be performed by someone who has decided to independently configure the network environment in his company or at home. This also applies to the problems of “visibility”, when two computers for some reason do not see each other on the network, as well as printing to a network printer.

Right-click on the printer and select "Install Printer". Then clicking a pair of confirmation windows, you install the printer driver on this computer.
