    Printer always offline - again

    I have a Photosmart C6150 printer. I've reinstalled the printer software
    and downloaded the drivers from web over and over. Some days it works
    great, other days it doesn't work at all. It mostly doesn't work at all.
    I have an HP laptop Pavilion with vista32, IE7. We are completely wireless.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    HB

    Dear HB

    A wild guess, but do you have a HDTV card installed ?
    I had the same problem with Fusion HDTV and my Lexmark
    X1170 printer. Nearly every day I had to reinstall my printer.
    Got rid of the Lexmark, bought an Epson and up 'til now
    haven't had any problems.
    Just a thought !
