I'm having a printer problem I hope you all can help me with...
This computer is a recent build, and at one time I was able to print from it, as I had the driver installed and the default printer selected, but Windows was saying it was offline, when in fact it wasn't. I tried to resetup/reinstall that printer, and now Windows can't find it...
Setup: Hardwired printer & computer to router. Printer resides at 192.168.1.2, which I can navigate to and putz with in a browser, and can see via my router's web interface.
When I tell the setup wizard to look there (192.168.1.2) for the printer (find by TCP/IP address), it cannot find the device.
My wife's laptop (wireless) can find & use the printer just fine. My wired HTPC has the same problem as my desktop... All are running Win7 Home 64bit. Router is Netgear WNDR3700v2, printer is Canon MP620c.
Any ideas?
