Ping 192.168.1.101 but the response is 192.168.1.107

[Davmes Tan Chee Seng]

Dear Folks,

I had bought a new Canon PIXMA MP 628 printer and it works well with my
tablet PC running Vista Home Premium.

However, I am having difficulties to enable it to work on my another
notebook, which is running Vista Home Premium as well.

Initially, I thought that it could be the printer drivers problem and thus,
I reinstalled all printer drivers but alas, no effect. When I went to the
command prompt and ping "192.168.1.101" [IP address of the printer], the
response "Reply from 192.168.1.107 Destination Host Unreachable"

Could somebody help me on this?

Could 192.168.1.107 be the local computer IP? In most cases, if you can't
reach the remote networking device, you will receive this message. Posting
back with the result of ipconfig /all may help.
