Hi there,

I have a wireless network installed at home, which has 3
laptops connected to it at anyone time. One of the
laptop's has a Lexmark Z23 Printer insalled and it is
shared across the network but over the weekend I
installed 'Windows XP Service Pack 2' and now I am unable
to get connected to the Printer from the other laptops.
The printer is available on the laptop it is connected
too but if I try to connect from my other machines, the
printer icon says "Unable to connect".

The printer is connected via one of the USB Ports, so
has 'Service Pack 2' blocked the port or do the drivers
needs updating since installing SP2?

Look forward to replys.

Many thanks

Mark
