Printer Woes in Vista

Not to complain too much, but the printer driver situation with Vista
is kind of a mess. I had my new HP Photosmart C6150 working
nicely. . . for about a week. Now I can't get Vista to find the
printer. I bought a USB to Parallel connector for my HP 1100. That
worked great . . . for one session. I can print through my old Win98
laptop across the Network. Should I go buy another new printer and
keep trying until I get something to work? I guess I should be happy
I can print at all. I spent too much time on this today already. . .

Re: Printer Woes in Vista

Exactly what happens to the C6150.....? Give us some more clues as to what
is working and what isn't... and what happens when you try to get it working
and we'll try to assist.
