I am running Vista Home Premium edition on an Everex stepnote 2053 I am connected wirelessly to a router and I have an XP machine connected via ethernet it has an HP1100 printer attached to it via parallel cable. I used to be able to print easily to it. Then a few month my everex stopped recognizing the printer. I just made do for a couple of months and then tried adding the printer. This time it worked but whenever I tried to do anything relating to printer (setting printer, page preview or printing) it would take 5 minutes or more for it to respond. There were no error messages and like I said it would eventually do it.
What is Everex? Your bottleneck is probably the LPT port. LaserJet, DesignJet, PhotoSmart... which 1100 printer? -- Cari (MS-MVP) Printing & Imaging www.coribright.com/windows "1on1spanish" wrote in message news:0B87BE76-58F5-46F9-AC8B-34A67DBFDCC7@microsoft.com... >I am running Vista Home Premium edition on an Everex stepnote 2053 > > I am connected wirelessly to a router and I have an XP machine connected > via > ethernet it has an HP1100 printer attached to it via parallel cable. > > I used to be able to print easily to it. > > Then a few month my everex stopped recognizing the printer.
