Replies dreamweaver Posted at 12:42 am on Jan. 11, 2009 Sounds like you need to download the drivers to your laptop for the printer. Just go to the printer's website (if it's HP, go to hp.com, as an example) and try to find the driver. If you want, I'm sure someone could help you out if you can't find it yourself. Just tell us what printer it is. SadnessNTurmoil Posted at 12:39 am on Jan. 11, 2009 go to the manufacturers site? they might have drivers? All 2 previous replies displayed.
