This laptop has Webroot Parental Controls installed with Windows Vista Premium. The Epson Photo R220 Printer connects USB to the Linksys Print Server via USB. The laptop is connected by testing both methods, connected to wireless through the print server and linksys router N. and Ethernet or connected directly to the printer via USB. I do not know how to setup the printer for the network.
Well, The first thing you should do is to try to test of the print server is properly connecting to the printer. Check the linksys printserver manual and look for how to print a status sheel from the print server. Once done, get the IP address of the print server. Go to your laptop and navigate to control panel/printer. See if you have the driver installed or download the Vista Drivers from Epson.com/support. During the installation, it will ask you what connection type your computer uses. cancel out of the installation or choose LPT1 as the port. Once done, go back to control panel/printers.Right click the R220 icon and navigate to properties. Select ports after that and add a new port. Select Standard TCP IP port after that. Once done, the wizard will appear. Input the IP address of the printer and finish the wizard. you should be good to go after this.
