I'm having similar problems printing on my D-Link
network. My wife's Dell laptop printed 5-10 times faster
with Windows 98 than it does now on XP. My new Dell
laptop prints incredibly slow to our HP G85. (Both
laptops are using a wireless network card.) A Dell
desktop PC we have in the house running W2k prints faster
than these other two machines.
I contacted HP support by e-mail and they told me they do
not recommend running their G85 across a wireless
network. Of course, it has been running flawlessly until
I installed XP, but I didn't take up that point with them
yet.
Anyone out there have any ideas for us? Thanks!
