I recently bought a new Brother printer and connected it to my XP
machine.

But when my wife wanted to print something, she could no longer see my
computer on the network.

It was fine with our previous Samsung printer, which died. Her
computer is runnin Windows 8.1. 

Now I find that I can't see any other computers on our LAN. 

When I try to fix it, I get a message saying that I do not have
permission to connect to the other and I must ask the Administrator,

I AM the administrator, so what to I do?

Four computers on the network can see each other fine, but my XP
machine that has the printer attached, is inviduible to the others,
and them to it. 

Why would it stop working?
