I have a new HP Laptop (Windows Vista) that is conected to a Dell desktop computer (Windows XP) and a Lexmark X6170 printer by a wireless connection. Although I can communicate fine with the Dell computer, I cannot print from the laptop. I have tried everything and have downloaded the new Vista driver from Lexmark. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Ian

You have print sharing enabled on all PCs?

Have you downloaded Vista drivers from the Lexmark site? I've found that a lot of printers (that are marked as Vista ready or Vista compatible) will need a driver download from the manufacturer's website because the drivers weren't included on the CD that came with the printer.
