On the network, I can see the printer and it says Ready. When I remotely try
to print, nothing happens. Not even an error message. The only clue is that
the printer status reads "error".
I can hardwire the laptop (which is using Vista Home Premium) to the network
(an XP-based system) printer, and can print just fine.
Any suggestions?

How many PCs in the network?

To what exactly is the printer connected?
