Default vista cannot find printer on network after upgrading from XP

I have an Oki C5200 printer that was working on a wireless network with XP
through a Linksys broadband router and I am now unable to get vista to
recognize it through the "add printer" setup. i have spent hours going
through the setup using IP address etc. It just won't pick it up. HELP

I am having the same problem with an OKI C5100. 7 Computers in the house,
running windows XP, 2000 and 98 are all able to connect to the OKI but
somehow the vista is not. If someone knows how to solve the problem please
respond.

I have the same problem with C5250n. If you 'manually' install and specify
the IP address the printer driver can interigate the printer and sees it but
windows vista won't print.

Have to connect via usb to get printer to work but then lose it as a
networked printer.
