    Can I use any printer on a wireless connection? I am having problems with my Lexmark too, it no longer recognises the wireless connections of the 2 laptops (with Vista). It happened suddenly but I cannot sort it out so seems as if I need to replace the printer, but it needs be wireless enabled too.

    Its not Microsofts fault if Lexmark can't be bothered to provide updated drivers for your printer!

    The strange thing is that it HAS worked for months - and then suddenly STOPPED! We have tried everything - reinstalling software etc to no avail, but the question remains as to whether all other printers will work on the network or whether I need to buy a WIFI one?
