can connect to internet from wireless pc, but can't print from it.I'm using XP in both computers.

If you have a wireless printer check the manufacture's setup instructions. Also verify the channel # and signal strength.JShttp://www.pagestart.comNever be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world available to help.

can connect to internet from wireless pc, but can't print from it.I'm using XP in both computers.What make/model of printer?To what is the printer connected (e.g., one of the XP computers; wireless; Ethernet cable to router)?Did this setup ever work? If yes, what happened just before things stopped working?If yes , and the printer is NOT directly connected to one of the computers, then what probably happened is that the printer's IP address was changed by your router. This is easy to fix as follows:Print a network configuration page using the printer's front panel controls Go to Printers and Faxes Right click on the icon for the printer and select Properties. Click on the Ports tab Click on the Configure Port button What appears in the box "Printer Name or IP Address"? If the IP address in the box is not the same as the printer's IP address on the printer's network configuration page, make it so.Ideally, you should assign your printer a static IP address so that this does not happen again. See your printer's user guide or ask for further directions.

Printer did work until, I replaced the computer connected to the printer.Computer connected to router, won't print.Thanks for your help, I'll follow your instructions!!Epson Stylus CX7000F

Printer did work until, I replaced the computer connected to the printer.Computer connected to router, won't print.Thanks for your help, I'll follow your instructions!!Epson Stylus CX7000FThe instructions were for the situation if the printer was NOT connected to a computer. From you just wrote, your printer IS connected to a computer, so the previous instructions do not apply to you.I make the following assumptions about your setup:You originally wrote that you use XP in both computers. Thus, I assume that you have 2 computers. Call them A and B.Your Epson Stylus CX7000F is connected by USB cable (or parallel cable?) to one of the computers. Call this computer A.Computer A is connected to your router with an Ethernet cable and can get to the Internet.Computer B is connected wirelessly to your router and can get to the Internet.Question 1: Are assumptions 1, 2, 3, and 4 ALL correct? If not, what is (are) the correct facts?Question 2: Can you print from printer A?Question 3: Can you print from printer B? (I assume the answer to this is No).Question 4: What version of XP is on each computer (Home or Pro) and what service pack?Further help will depend on your answers to all 4 questions.

Assumptions 1,2,3,and 4 are correct. Printer is connected to Comp. A by usbYes, I can print from Comp. A. Can not print on Comp. B. but can get on internetBoth computers have XP home.Help!

Assumptions 1,2,3,and 4 are correct. Printer is connected to Comp. A by usbYes, I can print from Comp. A. Can not print on Comp. B. but can get on internetBoth computers have XP home.Help!This sounds as if when you replaced computer A (the one to which the printer is connected), you didn't set up File and Printer Sharing.Below isstandard advice from MVP Malke. For screen shots, seehttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/maintain/printers.mspxFile/printer sharing Excellent, thorough, yet easy to understand article about File/Printer Sharing in Vista. Includes details about sharing printers as well as files and folders: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard on all machines (see caveat in Item A below). Problems sharing files between computers on a network are generally caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or overlooked firewall (including a stateful firewall in a VPN); or 2) inadvertently running two firewalls such as the built-in Windows Firewall and a third-party firewall; and/or 3) not having identical user accounts and passwords on all Workgroup machines; 4) trying to create shares where the operating system does not permit it. A. Configure firewalls on all machines to allow the Local Area Network (LAN) traffic as trusted. With Windows Firewall, this means allowing File/Printer Sharing on the Exceptions tab. Normally running the Network Setup Wizard on XP will take care of this for those machines.The only "gotcha" is that this will turn on the XPSP2 Windows Firewall. If you aren't running a third-party firewall or have an antivirus with "Internet Worm Protection" (like Norton 2006/07) which acts as a firewall, then you're fine. With third-party firewalls, I usually configure the LAN allowance with an IP range. Ex. would be 192.168.1.0-192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Do not run more than one firewall. DO NOT TURN OFF FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY. B. For ease of organization, put all computers in the same Workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, Computer Name tab. C. Create matching user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and the passwords assigned to each user account can be different; the accounts/passwords just need to exist and match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY SIMPLE ONES. If you wish a machine to boot directly to the Desktop (into one particular user's account) for convenience, you can do this. The instructions at this link work for both XP and Vista: Configure Windows to Automatically Login (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm D. If one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple File Sharing (Folder Options>View tab). E. Create shares as desired. XP Home does not permit sharing of users' home directories or Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. See the first link above for details about Vista sharing. F. After you have file sharing working (and have tested this by exchanging a file between all machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share it out from that machine. Then go to the printer mftr.'s website and download the latest drivers for the correct operating system(s). Install them on the target machine(s). The printer should be seen during the installation routine. If it is not, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some instances, certain printers need to be installed as Local printers but that is outside of this response.
