    HP c5180 all-in-one Printer sharing issues

    Hi Guys,

    I have a small network set up at home with a belkin f5d8232-4 router, got a desktop that is connected to the internet via ethernet cable and a laptop that is connected via wireless, both using vista, and both Ihave installed the HP drivers, but with the laptop once it come to the part where it searches for the printer it does not appear in the list and tells me there is no printer added.

    Also tried to add a ad-hoc printer but unfortunately the printer is not one them in the list. Any ideas??

    Check to see if your computer is being shared on the network...Do you see the printer on the Network. If it connected to the hub its on a network. If its connected to the desktop computer its called a local printer. This may help you decifer the fault.

    I hate HP Printers, have had a new C6280 for 3 months it's been nothing but trouble...
