I have a compaq laptop linked to a wireless lan with Belkin 54g...when i try to install the printer from the desktop I get an alert "opertion could not be completed" how do I print on my home LAN?
 
hi - i am almost embarrassed to even ask this in public it is probably such a simple problem, but oh well *s* i am willing to risk a red face if i can fix the problem. i have installed a printer on one puter in my two puter network (hardwired to a hub) and i can't for the life of me get the other puter to recognize the printer. i need a port and a name and location and i have no earthly idea where one goes to find these things. i have been looking - in the xp faq's, in the help printer and networking sections, on my cable providers site and have had no luck. If someone could tell me this one little thing i would be a very happy camper.
