I have recently installed a wireless network in my home,
and every aspect seems to work OK except when I try to
print from the client PC to the printer on the host PC.
When I do this, I get 3 overlapping prints of every
character printed. The printer is a Lexmark Z11. The host
PC is running Windows98. The client PC is running windows
XP. The correct printer drivers are installed on both
machines.
Is this a common problem? Are there any solutions?

OK, I have found the solution on the Lexmark help page.
The problem was solved by changing the settings related to
the type of print cartridge.

Check that the port designation [EPP, ECP, Bidirectional] is correct on
the host. Is the printer driver absolutely compatible with WinXP on
that computer? Review Cari's windows printer site for clues:
