Big problems in printing wirelessly from my laptop
Comments

Make the XP with the printer on have a static IP.
Or when it gets turned off it could get another IP and the other computers will not see the printer as they will be looking for the wrong IP address.
One way around it could be to assign names to the computer IP's and use names to reference the IP.
EDIT:
Sorry never noticed you have already done it.0 -
I think they all do have static IPs - I get the same figures when I do ipconfig, anyway.
All seems to be working now, thanks to all you lovely techie MSE people. It's going to make my life an awful lot easier, as I work from home.
In fact, I'm printing things just for the hell of it!

It STILL works.
Thank you all SO much for your patience and expertise.0
