| | Unable to set up Network Printer in Vista I have Vista installed on a newly built desktop PC, and am unable to connect to a networked printer connected to an Open Networks 625W Modem Router. Previously I had Vista installed on my old PC and I had no problem connecting to the printer. My XP Lap Top can still access the printer wirelessly and cable connected. I can ping the printer and am able to connect to the Print Server via the IP address and print a test page from there. I can set the printer up (Lexmark E230) in Vista using the IP Address and it installs OK, but when printing a test page, it errors. I have set up exceptions for the IP address in PCCillin and even tried disabling it, but still no good. Any assistance would be appreciated. |
