I have a HP Windows XP as my server on our wireless network. My HP 7130 All
in One printer has had all the drivers installed on my new Toshiba laptop,
but I cannot get any documents to print.
 
Can you "see" the printer from your laptop? In the Print dialog, is the 7130
listed in the dropdown list of printers? If not, then click the Find
Printer... button, and see if you can navigate to the printer.

Alternatively, choose Start - Control Panel, type printer into the search
box, then click View All Printers. If the 7130 isn't listed, click Add a
printer, and see if you can add it.

If you can't even see it, then are you sure it's shared? Does your laptop
use the same workgroup name as the server?
 
If it's shared but you are unable to add & your new Vista machine came
pre-loaded with Norton, try turning that off for a minute. At that
point its a firewall issue. You'll need to add your print server's IP
as a trusted source to Norton on the new machine.
