I got my External HD to work...FINALLY.

However, now i'm having trouble with my printer.

I have 2 laptops - both Vista (one 32x one 64x)

The 32 vista laptop sees the printer, and shows its online (both in windows and Bonjour) but it will not print. It just sits in the spool forever and then finally comes up with an error inside the spool screen.

The 64 vista Laptop will print, but only sometimes. (usually only the test page)

With Both computers:
What is really anoying is the fact that windows reconizes the printer "ONLINE" but as soon as I reset the computer and log back in, it then says "OFFLINE" and I have to use bonjour to re-find it, and it creates another printer with (2) after it. - which with the 64x computer will only sometimes work until its next reset.


I also tried going in the back way and telling windows to find the printer via 1.0.1.1 and that works too....but only on the 64 laptop, and only until i reset.


AM I MISSING SOMETHING??? Please help
