Windows Explorer Doesn't List HP 1600

The Windows Explorer under Vista Home Premium does not list my new HP
Color LaserJet 1600 even though the printer works fine and is an
available printer to every other application on my computer, including
Internet Explorer. Is this a bug in Vista Home Premium?

I can work around this by printing in the Paint program but it would be
quicker and more straight forward to be able to print directly from
Windows Explorer.

I've never seen printers listed in WE, in Win 2000, XP or Vista. Nor are
there any "print" selections in the file menu of any version of WE. AFAIK,
printing has never been an included feature in WE, so it's hardly a bug.
Is it possible you're referring to Internet Explorer, not Windows Explorer?

You are absolutely correct. I was wrong. It was not Windows Explorer;
it was Windows Photo Gallery. So, how do I get the Color LaserJet to
show up in the list of installed printers in Windows Photo Gallery?

Are you saying that your printer doesn't show up in the Printers drop-down
list in the Print Pictures dialog (Print->Print...)?
Mine do, local and network.

Yes. All the printers except the Color LaserJet show up. Based on your
experience, I must have a problem in my system. Thanks for your
feedback. I will continue to work on it when I have time.
