hi, with windows 7 we connected a printer (shareprinter_pippo) shared on another computer (computer_pippo) by setting "local port" with the share \ computer_pippo \ shareprinter_pippo. now with windows 10 the share is created, but when the pc is restarted the sharing disappears.
if i enter to propreties for see which port the printer use , the \computer_pippo\shareprinter_pippo not compare and does not print

version windows 10 1909 x64

thank you

    Hi,

    In regards to your issue, here're my suggestions:

    'After rebooting the sharing disappears', can you access the printer through \printerserver name at that time?
    Can you please provide the specific information when showing propreties in printer manager?
