How do I get my new laptop to connect to my printer?
-
I have a desktop running Vista. Just bought a laptop (windows 7) and am running via a wireless router. Tried doing the "share" on my desk top, but still can't get my laptop and printer to communicate. First time laptop user, and not a computer genius...so if you have solutions please explain simply and in detail. I felt lucky to have set up the wireless network without help, LOL! :)

Answer:
Windows 7 isn't enough information. Windows 7 can come in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. You need different software drivers installed for each version. If you are sharing your printer from your Vista computer you'll need to pre-install the drivers on your Windows 7 machine before you attempt to connect. None of this addresses networking issues which are a whole different matter. If you can give some more information about your operating systems, printer make/model, and networking config that'd help.
