Setting Up a Wirelessly Connected Laptop to Print to a USB-Connected PC

Posted: 09-21-2003, 03:37 AM
I've got an HP 2200 MFC hooked to my desktop PC via USB.
I've got a Dell 1100 Laptop that connects to my home
network via wifi.

I have set my HP MFC up as a shared printer, but
cannot "see" it on the laptop and therefore cannot set
the laptop up to print to it.

Help!! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Take a look at Ron Pacchiano's article about troubleshooting wireless
issues.

Make sure your main computer is set up to share. In
network connections and in printer. Make sure Work group
is asme for both. COntrol panel, printers. right click on
printer. Good Luck!
