    Printer Setup Trouble

    I am having trouble setting up my printer on my Vista machine. The HP DeskJet
    5550 is connected through a WPS54G prtin server and a WRT54G router. It works
    fine through my two XP machines. I've tried running the setup wizard as well
    as setting it up manually. Can someone please help? Thanks!

    Try telling your Vista PC the printer's IP address as in

    \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
