Received My HP Wireless Printer
I received my printer. I love it!! It has a touch screen!! I had some trouble with the software. On the main desk top (which is mine) I had to download the software twice before it worked. Then I worked with the laptop. Man, it didn't go well at all. It was a challenge and it took a good part of the day. The laptop should have been the easiest because it has built in WiFi, but nope. I had to hook up the printer to the laptop before it would pick up the printer. The software had to be loaded several times before it loaded properly. I was a very happy person when it printed the first job!!! My daughter thought I was crazy!! Then I tried it on my daughters desk top. I had to load the software twice on there too before it worked. But when it worked, it did everything by itself. It picked up the router/printer signal so fast. You should have seen the computer screen... boxes and pops flying around so fast. I thought oh no what just happened here. Then it settled down and the page said ready to print!! Oh my, it's done already. Very cool. I was home alone and no one to celebrate with!! My daughter has a wireless adapter on her computer and it picked everything up all on it's own. Nice!! The printer works great, now on all the computers. I have the old printer on Craigslist for sale, but no one is interested so far. It's a great printer, nothing wrong with it. I just wanted wireless, so when the other computers have something to printer they didn't have to put the jobs on a jump drive and move over to my computer where the printer was. With the old printer I couldn't get it to work on my network because my computer is an XP and the others are Vista. The printer software was for XP. I tried to download the updated Vista software from Canon and it wouldn't failed every time. So to have a printer on the my network I had to buy a different printer or different computer. We'll see if the old printer sells. If no one is interested I will sell in next summer at the Rummage Sale.
