After doing a system recovery on my laptop, I can't print. Everything says
the printer and drivers were installed. I could print before the recovery.
If I plug USB into the laptop, it prints. When I try to print without the
cable, I don't get an error or anything, it just doesn't print. I found
something that says to /browse to the Temp folder of your user account,
C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp and create a new folder and name it LOW. Then
there are other instructions. I can’t find this C:\Users, etc. Can anyone
tell me exactly how to get there? I'm using Vista. Thanx

Reinstall your printer drivers without the printer attached. During the
installation routine, it will tell you when to attach the printer.

This question makes no sense to me. How can the laptop print to a
disconnected printer?
