Why does it print to a shared printer over the network only after the first print from the computer that owns the printer?

Question

System administration

Hello.
There are two computers in the local area. Both are identical (hardware-soft-window7).
Printer hp 125rnw via usb connected to computer1. Shared the printer - connected to it from the computer2.
When you restart computer1, computer2 does not print on printak. The task either flies into the void, or hangs on computer 2 in the "queuing" manager.
It is worth printing from computer1 - and immediately tasks from computer2 begin to follow.
That is, until comp1 prints at least once after switching on, comp2 does not want to print on it on a grid.
How to solve?..
Thank you :)

Answer 1

Check the operation of the Print Manager service - it should start automatically, it may be worth starting it manually.

Answer 2

Did you try to ping it after rebooting the computer? Maybe the network card is initialized for a long time. And accordingly, the print job does not reach him.
As an option, simply connect the printer to the network and connect both computers to it over the network. This configuration will be much more convenient from the administration side.
