Have you checked for printer and file aharing to be activated when you set up the network?\n\nIt could also otherwise be a firewall issue.\n\nTry the printer sharing thing. it should work

I think what you are trying to say is that if your wireless connection to your access point (AP) becomes disconnected and then you try to reconnect, the workstation does not pick up a new IP address.\n\nIf that is the case, then you should repair your connection.  In Windows XP Service Pack 2, all you have to do is right-click on the wireless connection in the system tray (by the clock) and click "Repair".  It will force Windows to acquire an IP address.

This sounds like a corrupt printer driver you will have to disconnect your printer purge the driver from the system and reinstall your printer driver.

One of the computers on your network needs to be the network server so goto printer setup and setup a local printer (not network) then it may tell you cannot find it, next screen select bottom option 'create a new port >>tcp/ip port' assuming that your router has already assigned the printer its own ip address, then give the printer ip and name the port whatever you want and you are ready to go.\n:)

Just wipe out the network connection and set the network connection all over again. It should erase everything associated with your workgroup and let you recreate it.

If you have already installed the software, reinstall it again. Try closing down all programs. If not, contact the company that manufactures the printer.

Follow these steps...\n\n#1 Make sure all computers are set up properly via network. To do this you must do the following...\n\nOPEN MY COMPUTER> BROWSE TO DESKTOP> find "MY NETWORK PLACES" inside this box, find the item that says NETWORK SETUP WIZARD... open it...\nClick Next on the first window.\nClick next on the second,\nWhen you see the window that has 3 options, choose "OTHER" and when it goes to the next window choose the TOP OPTION, which should say "THIS COMPUTER CONNECTS DIRECTY TO THE INTERNET THROUGH A NETWORK OR HUB, OTHER COMPUTERS ALSO CONNECT VIA HUB"\nClick next, and name the pcs whatever you want so you can identify them.\nClick next, then specify the WORKGROUP NAME, which must be the same on all computers, MSHOME is the defualt which is fine. Then click next\nThen click "TURN ON FILE AND PRINT SHARING"\nThen click next\nClick next again.\nThen let it finish, then click JUST FINISH THE WIZARD I DONT NEED TO RUN THE WIZARD ON OTHER COMPUTERS.\nThen click FINISH.\n\n\nYou must do the above steps on all 3 computers to ensure they all are using the same type of settings.\n\nAlso after the step is done and you restart each machine, go to START>CONTROL PANEL< and make sure WINDOWS FIREWALL is turned off on each machine. When you turn on file and print sharing, by default the windows firewall will turn on...\n\nYou do not need windows firewall, it sucks, and you have a router which is a firewall in itself.\n\nStep #2\nMake sure the printer you want to share is either plugged into the router, or into one of your computers. Most likely its already installed on one of your computers...\n\nOn the computer you have the printer hooked up to, click START>CONTROL PANEL, find PRINTERS AND FAXES and when this window opens, find the printer you are using, right click the printer and choose SHARING make sure SHARE THIS PRINTER button is chosen. Choose a name for the printer and click OK... Just click OK to any other things it asks you.\n\nRestart all 3 computers to refresh the network... Usually the other computers will auto detect the Network shared Printer, but if they do not, then go to step #3.\n\nStep #3 Go to the 2 computers that the printer is not hooked up to, click START> CONTROL PANEL> PRINTERS AND FAXES and if you do not see the printer listed, click ADD PRINTER.\nWhen the window opens, click NEXT, then click the dot next to "A NETWORK PRINTER OR A PRINTER ATTACHED TO ANOTHER COMPUTER". \nThen click next.\nThen click BROWSE FOR PRINTER.\nThen it may scan for a bit, may even freeze up for a moment, then you should see the name of the other 2 computers you are not using, or the name of the computer that has the printer hooked up to it...\n\nCollapse the computer that has the printer connected to it, till you see the SHARED printer and its NAME. Double click it.\n\nIt may have a window message that says YOU ARE ABOUT TO CONNECT TO A PRINTER...ETC... Just click OK OR YES, then in the next window, click SET THIS PRINTER AS DEFAULT PRINTER>... then click NEXT and then click FINISH...\n\nNOW YOU ARE ready to use a single printer on any of the 3 computers...\n\n\n#4 To share files in general: Refer back to step #2... Except that this time you need to use the computers SHARED FOLDER, or create a folder in MY DOCUMENTS, or simply right click MY DOCUMENTS and click PROPERTIES then choose SHARING and then SHARE THIS FOLDER ON THE NETWORK, ALLOW USERS to change my files, is optional to you.\n\nThen click ok... \n\nNow any file in MY DOCUMENTS can be shared among computers...\n\nNote: If you allow users to change your files, they can delete crap from another computer, rename it, or possible move it. If you do not select the allowing users to change files option, the only thing they can do, is grab the file off the machine as a copy, while the original file is left untouched and unmoved.
