Wirelss Printing = PML Driver/Host Process for Windows Stopped

Guest

x64 Ultimate and a Linksys router.

HP 7410xi Multifunction Printer works fine if I use the USB cable and no
error messages.

If I print over the wireless setup, the pages print, but I will receive this
error every single time.

Another system with Vista x86 Business works perfectly over the wireless
network, with full functionality.

I am trying to avoid having additional cables attached, which is why I
purchased a printer with built-in wireless capabilities.

go to HP.com. There are several articles on this process failing on Windows
2000 and greater.

there is also a security update but I assume you picked up the latest driver
from HP for this so it would be included in that..

Thanks for the reply Alan, however, I first went to the HP knowledge base and
their forums, and their solutions do not work or are not applicable.

Hence, my post here, since I thought it might have somthing to do with the
wireless communications.

Did you disable the process as suggested? It should not be failing if it
does not run.
