Connecting Printer on Wireless Network

[nashie]

Hi Everyone,

I have searched the forum and has read many different topics on issues with connecting Vista to a printer on Xp box, via network.

I have tried many different ways that have been suggested but still can't get teh printer installed.

This is my set-up:-
Printer:- Epson R310
XP Box: Hp Media Centre running Media Centre SP2
Vista Laptop: running Vista Home Premium 32bit
Router: D-link DI-634M

The error I am getting is "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied."

Any help would be great appreciated.

Hi, nashie

Silly question to start of with, but have you set up a home network ?
If so is the network the same name on both computers ?
Have you also enabled file and printer sharing ?

I had trouble with XP I am connected to the XP through a Netgear and it was a little bit of a nightmare,.

Steve.
