Printer Passthrough Problem

Hi,

New to the forum & vmware.

I've just set up Win XP Pro in Fusion 6 on my MacBook Air and have an odd problem when printing.

The printer is a shared network device running from my Win 7 PC and printing directly from the Mac is fine, but when I print from the XP VM nothing happens. I then open the print queue and the file is paused awaiting authentication, I enter the correct password, save it to the keychain and it prints.

However, when I try printing again the same thing happens, it always requires authentication.

Would be grateful for any help with this.

Thanks,

Bill
