Hello, I installed my printer HP 5550 on a new laptop running Windows Vista, this printer was working well on my old machine (Windows XP) but does not work anymore on Vista!

Hi, I am new to Windows printing. I have to send a print to a spooler. To do this I cofigure a printer with NUL port. Sending a print to this port causes the job to be spooled on a print server (All these are windows apps). I would like to know the protocol between the print client and Spooler(Server). I assume it is LPR ? Could someone throw some light on this ? Thanks Sunil

The message has...
