Vista - Wireless Network - Shared Printer

Hi all,

I'm having some very annoying problems with a wireless network and a shared printer, that's the aim. A friend has asked me to install a printer on a wireless network after "someone who said he knew what he was doing" messed it all up.

There are 5 computers running 'Vista Home Premium (32bit I believe)' connected to a wireless router/hub. All I want is the printer connected to one of them, and the other 4 connected / shared to that printer. Will it work, will it hell! The other PC's will just not
"see" or discover the printer on the other pc.

Pritner Sharing is enabled on the host pc, all are on the same WORKGROUP.
The trouble, I think, is that there are not only these pc's on the network (these pc's are the ones I have dealings with, the others are a college's). Could the wireless network be at fault for this?

(All my experience is on XP, im very new to this metal heap called Vista)

The printer is an Epson All-In-One, not sure on the model. It WAS set up using a printer server, but that was an utter pile of uselessness.

The only other way I can think of is to use the existing wireless network, but somehow hardwire the pc's together via ethernet, no idea at the moment though... I have limited access to the pc suite.

ANY help on this would be very appreciated.
Thanks, Rhys

you have to install the drivers on each computer. and, of course the host computer always has to be on.

That's the thing, I have. There's a "wifi version" disc with everything on.
Is this a Vista thing, because I didnt have to install the drivers doing it this way with XP?
Thanks.
