Purchasing a Printer that operates on Vista
Our system currently runs on Windows XP but we are considering purchasing a
printer that runs on Vista. Is the printer compatiable to our Windows XP operating system?

So far as I know all printers that are Vista compatible will work with Windows XP. All you need to do is look at the specs for the printer you are considering, they will tell you which operating systems are supported. Tony MS MVP Printing/Imaging

Purchasing a Printer that operates on Vista
I am using windows vista home premium. I have connected my old printer
which I used with windows xp. It is a HP DeskJet 940c. I was told by HP it was NOT compatible, with Vista but it works fine. I did not install any drivers. Vista found them for me. Give your old printer a try. Hope this helps ************************************************** "Tony" wrote in message news  SJA wrote: Our system currently runs on Windows XP but we are considering purchasing a printer that runs on Vista.

If it runs on Vista, it will have XP drivers as well.

If the folks who write DIVX would update their software ALL my PCs (bar the
Server 2003) would be running Vista. Just because a few people are having problems, doesn't mean avoid it.
