Printing through Netgear FP114P Print Server

Does anyone know how I get Windows Vista to print through this HUB. My
printer connects to the HUB on serial port. All my other compters are able to
use the Printer. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

If you can see the netgear as a machine on the network, create a Local Port
with the name \\NETGEARNAME\PrintShareName.

Or have you already connected or created a printer and it just does not
print?

Yes I can see the Netgear Router I will try naming the port as you suggested.
I use the xisting port to print from an XP and WIN98 machine with no
problems. Thanks for the suggestion
