    I need some help with wireless printing!!! I have four computers in my home, two desk tops upstairs and two wireless laptops down stairs. I have a canon IP4200 that is plugged into one desktop which has XP, the other desk top has XP and prints to the printer as a shared printer. My older Dell 600M laptop with XP prints to the printer. Now my problem I just bought a Dell XPS 1530 with Vista, if I plug it into the printer it works, but it will not print to the canon. I select the printer but it does not print . Any ideas
