I would then try a Windows XP Hardware group.

|| Hi Milly
|| I'm pretty much a novice so please bear with me. When I tried to

|| that I could find. I went to device Manager, maybe there is anpther
|| place to go. I them tried to add a printer and went through the Add
|| Hardware in the control Panel. I went through the routine using the
|| recommended and existing ports but eventually got a message that
|| said "Default Printer can not be found" I also tried to run an HP
|| diagnostic and got a message "Element Not Found." Invalid URI
|| Format" Interestingly we can still print on er account on the
|| internet.
|| I'm running Vista. Why would it make sense to post on an XP Board.
|| Thanks for your interest and help.

|||| Hi Milly,
|||| No, I tried printing in Word in her account and received the

|||| the current printer set up" We can print from the internet on her
|||| account. Interestingly, Printers does not appear on my wife's
