I inherited a HP Laserjet 3100 and cannot get it to work on my home network. It works fine from the PC to which it is directly connected. The operating system of that PC is Windows Me. I have two laptops running Windows XP; they are connected to the network via a Linksys wireless access point. The laptops see the printer but when I try to connect I have no luck. In fact the printer has to be reinstalled on the local PC after I try to print a test page from either laptop. Any thoughts? Other than buying a new printer. Thanks, Mike Downingtown, PA

I will download the driver set and see if that does the trick. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, you cannot download any drivers for this printer and I have the original CD, which is what they suggest I use. Lovely. I will try re-installing and see if there is an option to designate the PC as a "server." As my laptop is an XP and the "server" is running Me, should I load the Me drivers on the XP laptop, if possible? Again, thank you for your help.
