SYMPTOMS
========

Although you can print successfully to network printers in Windows 95, Winpopup
may not notify you when print jobs are completed.

CAUSE
=====

Winpopup does not notify you when print jobs are completed when you print from a
Windows 95-based computer to a printer shared by another Windows 95-based
computer.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows 95. We are
researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft
Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION
================

This problem occurs only when you print from a Windows 95-based computer to a
printer shared by another Windows 95-based computer. For example, Winpopup does
deliver print notifications when you print to a network printer shared on a
Microsoft Windows NT-based computer.
