    Wireless printing problems- router, T60?

    Parts included:
    Belkin F5D7230-4 router
    Samsung ML-2252w printer
    Thinkpad T60

    The ML-2252w includes a print server. It is connected via ethernet to the router. When attempting to print from my desktop (also connected to the router via ethernet), there's no problem. This also holds true for the T60 when connected via a cable. However, the moment that I try to use wireless, the printer ceases to be recognized and I cannot connect with it.

    My presumption is that there's either a lack of capabilitiy or a feature turned off with the router, or that Access Connections is somehow blocking the connection (note that "Disable file and printer sharing" is disabled under Access Connections).

    Anyone have any idea just what the culprit is here?

    Update- it's definitely not the T60. So, does anyone have any ideas for how to get the router/server to cooperate?
