I have an XP desktop connected to an HP 3650 printer, which is shared.
I'm running a simple wireless LAN (3Com) with two laptops which use
the printer and an internet connection. Up until now this has given us
no trouble, but now suddenly I can't print from one of the laptops,
even a test page. The message given is "Test page failed to print" or
for a normal print "Windows failed to print because of a problem in
the print set-up". The printer still works on the desktop and,
bizarrely, the other laptop. The network seems to be working fine in
other respects - I can still access the internet and see shared files
and folders, and I can ping the desktop from the laptop.
The thing that seems to have triggered this is that I installed a
program called 'Ink Saver' on the desktop. I have now uninstalled it
and done a 'system restore' but that hasn't solved the problem.
All suggestions considered.
Try uninstalling & reinstalling the printer.
