Cant print to HP printer from network
I have a Vista Home Premium laptop and am trying to print to my XP machine which has an HP K80 Officejet attached to it.
I have 3 printers attached to my PC - the Officejet K80, an Epson R220 and an Epson C46. All 3 printers have networked perfectly fine and the Epson printers print fine through the network but the stubborn K80 won't. The laptop previously had XP installed on it and the K80 printed fine through the network. May I add - the HP K80 prints fine from my PC. In Properties/Ports the 3 machines are listed as follows... Epson Stylus R220 USB002 Epson Stylus C46 USB001 HP K80 Officejet Series DOT4_001 Why is the K80 not listed as a USB device when it is? I'm not getting any error messages. Any ideas? TIA. Colin.

HP assigns USB printers those port names. Seems to me the K80 also has a parallel port - why not try reinstalling it that way?
