Wireless print server

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

I have just set up a Netgear PS111W print server at home so I can
print wirelessly from my 2 laptops to my HP Deskjet 840C (XP on both
machines). The prolem is that when I print from an appliction, the
application freezes until the printing has finished. When the printer
was directly connected, the printing just went on in the background
after it was queued and I could continue with the application.

Any clues as to what I am missing?

TIA

Well lets look at the name of the newsgroup. It starts with "microsoft"
so that must mean we only talk about Microsoft products. Next it says
"public" so that means any person can post here. Then it says
"broadbandnet" so since this is a Microsoft newsgroup it must be talking
about the Microsoft Broadband Networking. Last but not least it says
"hardware" So that must mean it is the Microsoft hardware for networking
that we talk about.

Thus this is not a general networking newsgroup, but one for the
Microsoft Broadband networking hardware. I'd suggest either posting in
a newsgroup for the hardware you are running, a general networking
newsgroup, or one for whatever version of Windows you are running.
