I have an HP 1022 printer connected to a Dell Inspiron PC running Windows 7.
I have addded it to another PC that is connected to the first across a
wireless home network. When I print from the second PC, it shows up as
printing, but doesn't actually print until PC 1 is re-booted.

How do I get it to print correctly?

I had a similar problem . I have a Laserjet 1020 and Canon MP 510 connected
to my Win 7 / 64 bit desktop and shared wirelessly to my Win 7 starter
netbook.
The Canon works perfectly on both. I downloaded and installed the 32 bit
driver for the Laserjet. The status shows READY and when I print , the job
is sent to the printer ( appearing in the queue ) but the printer doesn't
activate until rebooting.

I disabled firewalls , re installed , even called HP who basically said it's
a Win 7 problem and they wouldn't help.

Don't drive yourself insane , you won't get it work work ( but if you DO ,
please post what you did !! <G>)

I'd remove the printer drivers and reinstall the latest. If that fails
I'd either reinstall Windows or buy a slightly less cheap printer (P2055?)

The HP LaserJet 1022 appears to rely on "host based printing" - this
means it can't be attached to a network using anything like a JetDirect
(internal or external). I agree with your practices though.
