I read on the HP website that their printers have limited use on a network. Am I wasting my time or can it be done. This is the third time I have wasted a whole day on this - can anyone help please?

I read on the HP website that their printers have limited use on a network. Am I wasting my time or can it be done. I have a BT Voyager wireless router however the printer is connected to the desktop by USB cable. I have obviously tried all the "Print sharing" settings. This is the third time I have wasted a whole day on this - can anyone help please?

watching your subject, i think of you may flow with the HP laptops. they provide greater constructive properties for a fraction of the fee. HP is likewise a good type. I even have been procuring HP laptops for the previous 5 years and until finally right now they have not given me any problems. in case you're disturbing that they are going to overheat then you definitely can purchase a cooling pad for an insignificant $25. in fact, MACs would be cool yet a smart guy or woman could flow with the HP. until you at the instant are not disturbing approximately your funds (perchance in case you win the lottery!) dont flow with the MAC. shop the money for different investments. it won't purely keep your cash yet supply you with peace of recommendations. Plus this is different from you're giving up something. you're unquestionably getting greater constructive properties. So i advise you flow with the HP workstation.

You should be able to "add a printer" on your laptop.. and then select that it is a network printer attached to the desktop.. you will need to know the network name of the printer.

You know,
If you have wasted a whole day, why not just go out and buy another cheap printer.
I have spent weeks with my HP trying to set up wireless - gave up in the end.
