My wife is running Vista on the home computer and I am running XP on the other. I have them networked them together through a router and am able to use the internet.
Last week I was even able to print on the laser printer which is also networked, but when I tried using another printer that has USB connection to the home computer, I could not print on it. I tried several things and in the process I have messed up. I can not even print on the laser now, but am still on the internet.
Any clues from anyone on what setting I hve changed. I used the network wizard and that seems to be when my trouble started.

Your printers being networked and your internet working are to different things really.

Seems it's possible that the USB isn't set as the default printer. And the laser must be shared over the network.

If these things are done, you can try to uninstall both printers and install them again one at a time.
