Adding a new Vista (Acer notebook) to my print server

by petewehr Oct 7, 2008 2:14AM PDT

I am trying to add a new computer to my existing wireless network to print. I can access the internet, but it will not print to my wireless print server (WPS54G). I have added the printer driver and the print server driver via the Linksys wizard. The printer (HP 970CXI) shows up on the printer list on the control panel with a green ready check, but when I try to print a test page, it just sits there. I was able to print via a physical connection with a usb cable, but the wireless portion is still not sound..any hints?

My ACER is the extensia 5620-4801.

Wonder why it must be so hard to get things to work.
