Wireless Printing - Comments Page 8

I have a wireless home network set up, I use network magic. I have a laptop hard wired, a brand new pc hard wired, and an old pc that is wireless, it has a printer. I want to know what I can do to remove the printer from a PC and make it totaly wireless.. what can I do ??

EDITOR'S NOTE: You'll need a printer that can connect directly to your router, either via network cable or wireless. Not all printers are networkable, check the manual.

My desktop is hooked up to two printers, I have wireless and a laptop. Can I have access to both printers via my wireless laptop?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Sure. Just make both printers SHARED on the network, then any computer (laptop or not, wireless or wired) can use them.

I have a desktop computer running Windows 2000 Pro which is direct connect to 2 printers (Samsung & Lexmark) and also connected to a D-Link router. My laptop Dell/Vista cannot print wireless to the printers, I've disabled all Anti-virus, etc. I'm also using Network Magic, no luck.

EDITOR'S NOTE: You didn't say, so are the printers designated as Shared? Also, if you connect the laptop via network cable, can you print?

I followed all the steps but it's not working. I use a Sony Vaio that runs on Windows Vista. My printer is a hp deskjet 845c. I have a wireless router (linksys). Any suggestions?

EDITOR'S NOTE: What computer is the printer connected to?

I have hp3100 all in one printer which is attached to Dlink wireless router with print server but I cant print wirelessly from my laptop with Vista ultimate.However I can print fine when I attach the printer with a USB cable.
Any brilliant ideas to make this work..?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Maybe disable your firewall on the laptop?

It was VERY easy to se up the printer to print from a wirless laptop. Thanks for the info!!

I used to print from my wireless laptop to my HP DeskJet G85 until I installed a newer version of Netgear. Now I don't know why I can't print wirelessly. I followed all the proper steps again but with no luck. My printer is hooked up to my desktop. The Netgear is hooked up to my desktop properly. Please help. Thanks!!!

EDITOR'S NOTE: You'll have to poke around in the router setup options ... maybe a firewall is blocking you.

I followed all the steps, and when I try to print the document from my laptop(Toshiba with Windows Vista), it says sending to printer, but then nothing happens. My hp deskjet 3420 printer is connected to a desktop computer running Windows XP, and I have a Linksys router. What should I do?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Maybe the Vista firewall is blocking you. Try turning it off.

I got all until the last step..My Toshiba laptop detects my computer (Caffreyn) but does not display my lexmark printer...what now?

just can't do it... just got a brand new fancy printer, its shared, and i'm on a wireless network. i'm on my Computer right now, my printer is connected to my computer. my laptop just can't find the dang printer!!

EDITOR'S NOTE: You marked the printer as Shared? Is there a firewall in the way?
