I have a Toshiba laptop with Vista. I can not print to my Linksys wireless
print server (WPSM54G). I can ping the server but can not print. I have a
desktop and another laptop on the network using XP and I have no printing
problems with them. According to Linksys there is additional drivers
required. Does anyone have a solution?
 
If there are additional drivers required, did you download them from the
Linksys website?
 
I do not know what LPD service is and the only thing I have attempted is
using the Linksys set up program. I have been on the phone with them several
times, they can not explain why it does not work.

Does this device support the LPD service? Are you creating a Standard
TCP/IP Port to the network device?

Strange because in your first post, you tell us that Linksys says additional
drivers ARE required.
 
Linksys, it's the network print server, correct? If you have a network card
on the HP printer, HP supports LPD, Raw 9100 TCP, Appletalk, IPX, DLC. HP
recommends Raw 9100 TCP in a Windows environment for their network capable
devices.

HP or Linksys manual?

You will need to read the manual on what print protocols are supported by

The hostname changed with the new device. Probably the IP address as well.
You need to reconfigure the port or add a new printer port for the new
device
