I just got a new wireless Toshiba laptop, and I need to print some things, however my printer is not a wireless printer, but supports networking. My printer is connected to my router, and I would like to know how I can connect to the printer through the router. I tried putting in the IP Address of the printer but it didn't work. Also I am using Windows Vista.

Answer by B.I.G.P.O.P.P.A
Add a new printer, "local" through the TCPIP port. Enter the IPaddress of the printer and follow instructions on the screen...for the type of printer and driver just use GENERIC and GENERIC TEXT ONLY
After that, try to ping the IPaddress of the printer to see if you can ping it. If you can, then you should be able to print. If you cant, then I dont know what else to tell you.
Good Luck
