I've just been trying to help the young, teenage daughter of a late friend connect her new dell laptop, with vista home edition, to her new lexmark wireless printer. She had installed everything correctly as far as I could see and the printer was on the network. I successfully installed all the software onto my xp acer aspire laptop and everything performed as expected, wirelessly. She has had some other issues with the dell, it came pre installed with mcaffee and she has uninstalled that and attempted to install norton 360. The install hung during downloading update from symantec. Windows firewall is off. She has full internet access. She has set up both admin and user accounts. The print queue fills up and the icon in control panel-printers shows a green tick and the word error. Just being able to set the printer up using usb would be handy for the moment but I have trouble navigating around vista. AJH
