Solve : Printer on wireless LAN?

Answer»

OK.

I have a machine running on windows xp x86, and a laptop running on windows 7 x64. I have an HP laserjet 1009 printer attached to the xp machine, with sharing turned on. Until yesterday, the printer SET up that I had was fine - the windows 7 laptop was recognising the printer and would send documents to it to print. Last night, this stopped working for no apparent reason. The only thing I have done is to replace the adapter on the xp machine, because it was broken I discovered, but I have set up the share again since INSTALLING it and now the windows 7 machine wont find either the xp machine or the printer on the network.

Any ADVICE regarding how I could solve this problem would be appreciated.

Cheers, guys. :-)

feenixWhen discovering wifi devices does the xp system with the new wifi nic not show? Did you install the driver in the correct order, where most have you install the driver CD first before the adapter is installed so that the adapter is associated with the MFR drivers and not MS default? Most adapters like this have a label on the device or CD warning that order of INSTALLATION is critical.
