Do you where one can change the XP_SP2 firewall at the granularity you
have indicated?<br>
<br>
Also, do I need to make any changes to my D-Link Wireless Router's
firewall?<br>

It was the damn M$ Firewall on my wife's computer! Yes, allow

LPD is probably not be considered "printing" from the standpoint of MS.
Not sure IPP is either -- have to check.

Even though I know just enough to keep my Linux servers running
(actually, once they are up I am able forget them until we lose power
- then I need to power them back on :-) ), I know that somewhere in
there is an answer. Not so with Windows.
Thank you for trying to help with this....

Just allow 515/tcp and 515/udp through for LPD, and 631/tcp and 631/udp
for IPP. This is not difficult to do at all for XPSP2's firewall.

P.S. Also note, SMB changes whether you use the [not-so] encrypted RPC
(port 445) or not (various ports).
