I have never added a printer using Vista and I am really having a problem. I have a Dell Inspiron with Vista 32. My printers are Lexmark and are connected directly to a desktop and I share the printers. In XP, it was simple to add and I didn't have to install drivers. Vista is requesting that drivers be installed which I did but I still can't connect. I read on 1 blog something about needing a patch, I don't know what a patch is.Can someone guide me through this,keeping it very simple?
Thanks,
Dee

The desktop is homebuilt. I have added several wireless laptops using XP without a problem. I have oher laptops that will print, I have a new laptop that has Vista and this is my problem, I have done everyrhing Vista has directed ne to do and I can't communicate with the printer. Other than calling Dell and paying them to det it up I don't kknow what else to do.
