Vista - Printing / Wireless / Airport Extreme / HP 5600

Hello,

I have a wireless network Using an Airport extreme.
I print though the Airport extreme using the USB connection on it.
My Dell Lap top with Windows XP has no problem printing this way. (Using
Bonjour)

I also have two newer HP lap tops (pavilion DV 6000) running Vista.

With teh computer using Vista I can see the printer, but it will not print,
sometimes it prints a half a page and then gets stuck.

I have Called HP, they have run all the test they can think of and they say
it's not them,
I have called Apple, and they say its not their Airport Extreme.

It works fine with Win XP.

I have tried several combinations of turning off Fire wall, and Virus
protectors, File sharing etc.

Does anyone else have any ideas??

Thanks in advance.

Hello all. I was wondering if one/some of you gurus could help me out.
I am running a new wireless network with a pc running WIN XP, an HP PSC
2210 All-In-One, and an Apple Airport Extreme (router). It has taken me
forever to figure out how to get the printer associated with the correct
driver (it now is and fully up to date) and to print through the network
but that stage is complete. I am now trying to figure out how to make
the additional features of the printer available on the network. Those
being, the media card reader and scanner.

When the printer is connected directly to the pc My Computer shows a
removable media drive and camera/scanner for the printer. However, when
the printer is connected over the network, I cannot find these anywhere.
I'm wondering if this is another setup issue or if I'm simply looking
in the wrong places.

Any thoughts/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

You'd have to check with HP as to whether those additional features are
network enabled. Most scanners are NOT networkable, so you might also want
to connect the printer to your XP PC or Vista PC with a cable for the
occasions when you wish to use the scanner and card reader. If you are
specifically looking for a networkable scanner, other than very large
commercial units that companies lease rather than purchase, Epson make a few
standalone units, they start at around $3,000, so generally it's a lot less
$s to buy a few standalone scanners for your network.
