XP printer and new Vista based computer?
I bought a new computer that has Vista on it. I would like it to be able to print on the printer I currently have hooked up on a network with 2 XP based computers. I keep getting an error message saying it does not recognize the printer. What steps do I have to take for these 3 computers to all be able to share the same printer?

You need Vista drivers for your printers.
You'll need to go to the individual manufacturer's sites and check in Support/Downloads and check whether there are actually Vista drivers available.
Unfortunately, not all printers do have Vista drivers. Some manufacturer's expect you to upgrade to a more modern printer ... preferably one of their own.
