Hi, I'm not super technical and if this is not the correct forum I apologize and hoping I can be pointed to the correct forum. My issues is that I'm trying to print on a printer that is in my basement connected to a Vista machine accessing interent via wireless. My Set-up is as follows: Upstairs of house have an XP Desk connected directly to my router. I'm trying to send documents to my printer that is in the basement. This printer is connected directly to a VISTA Desktop. The VISTA Desktop is set-up via wireless. Internet works on both machines. However, I am not able to access the printer that is in the basement via the XP Desktop upstairs. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Neil

OK...really really...I have been in hell working on this exact problem since Jan 6th!!!! I am coming back to this site just to see IF there even is a wireless pritner that will work with Vista. IF there is one, I will return my HP and buy it AT ANY COST AT THIS POINT!!!

Various things to keep in mind when configuring a wireless printer are as follows: Materials needed To be able to set up wireless printer configuration, there are three basic items that you need to have. They are a high-speed broadband Internet connection (with modem), a high speed wireless router and wireless network adaptors. These three items will be used in setting up the wireless printer. Assuming that there is already an existing network in the home or office space, then all that is needed to do to make the printer available in the network through the operating system’s networking wizard. If not, then the network must first be established, only then the printer will be made available through that network. Choosing the right location Considering that the printer is going to be set up through a wireless printer configuration , it is important that the location of the printer is covered by the wireless network. In the same way that computers need to be in the radius of the wireless router, the printer should be in the same radius as those computers in that network. Essentially, wherever the Wi-Fi reaches, the printer can be placed there. However, it must be said that corners and spots with low-signals should be avoided to prevent printing issues and other problems. Choosing the right kind of model Of course, wireless capable printers are used remotely. What is great about wireless printer configuration is that even older printers that are not wirelessly capable can be made available wireless. To be able to make the older models available to the network, choose a host that is connected to the wireless network and use this as the host. This will work just as well as the wireless capable printers; however, they will be dependent on the host. This means that if the host is turned off or in sleep mode, then the printers cannot be accessed through that host.Printer Support
