    You need to reinstall the driver for your Windows keyboard, you can’t type in upper case it appears.

    In my experience, any time you want to reach a network printer that is not installed on your office PC then you will end up calling in the IT guys. Unless you have a lot of time to waste, don’t even bother trying to do this yourself.

    1. Properly configured and shared printer will automatically show up in the menu just like you saw on your beloved Mac.

    2. You can expand workstations or servers in the list when you search for a printer and see the printer that you are looking for.

    3. And your usage of the control panel with simple view instead of the classic view blew away your credibility.
