It's Official.....I'm a Computer Techie

It took me about 3 hours last night.....But, I solved an ANNOYING issue at home.  My desktop has a huge monster print and my son has a computer with a crappy printer. My husand doesn't have a printer with his computer.   In the evenings, I often have my wireless laptop with me in the living room.  From the laptop I can't print or access files on my desktop.  It's just all been an on going list of "things to do".

Home NetworkSO.....  (drum roll)

       We are all networked!!

My son's computer, my husband's computer, my desktop, and my wireless laptop are ALL networked and can all print on the ONE MONSTER Printer in our home office.

I gotta tell ya, I was patting myself on the back last night at 11:00pm.   I didn't have to call my computer dude!

There's nothing better than "completing" a project!

Life is Good!

Congratulations!  I wish I can figure out how to use wireless on my laptop.  My computer technician programmed it but after he left, it did not work so I gave up.  When my husband is working on my desktop, I do something else.

Our computers are all networked too to the printer. It makes it easy to work anywhere, (in bed) with a lap top, print downstairs and go get it.

Couldn't function without it. I have to tell you I would have given up figureing it out in about 20 minutes.

Christine,  I cannot even imagine.  I would still, be working on it!  It's all that I can do to make my computer work with my printer:)  I need to update my printer, but, afraid of the new challenge of hooking up the whole thing again.  Have a good Labor Day Weekend!

Congratulations.  I am networked as long as I turn my laptop 90 degrees and can get the da^#$@@ PDFs to print without going through thirteen extra steps.  I have talked to Hewlet Packard and the new internet provider to no avail.  I will never, oh let me put that this way NEVER buy an HP product again.
