I'm a new Vista Business user, have no manuals and moving from Win-2000 the
interfaces are not very intuitive. I have an existing home wireless network comprised of a Linksys a/b/g wireless router connected to a Linksys wireless print server that was working very well for my wife and I using Windows 2000 on our notebooks. Under Win-2000 I simply added the driver for the Linksys wireless print server onto the notebooks, then added printer to the notebooks and assigned the port of the wireless print server to the printer. Under Vista, the printer add process is not inuitive. There is no list of printers to pick from. I tried to add the printer (Hp Lasrerjet 3330) using the CD but it was incompatible with Vista. Fine for 2000, NT and XP. Tried to load and use the HP universal print driver but no way to specific my printer without loading it. Got a smeared page to print through the universal driver. What is the process to follow on Vista to add a printer that will communicate through a wireless print server? -r |
