Print Server

Hey, Im trying to setup wireless printing for my laptop and HP PSC 1500 series. First I set up the printer, then connected it to the USB print server (IOGear GPSU01), which was connected to the Linksys Wireless Router. Then I installed the IOGear software, and ran PSAdmin. It immediately found the server, and I could configure IPs and whatnot. Next, I installed the printer drivers, and added the printer via the XP wizard. By the way, I did this all by the IOGear manual. So I printed a test page and it printed immediately, but not right. Only about 1/4 of the page was printed, and that was filled with white lines in the middle of certain lines.

So naturally, I tested to see if the printer was working correctly. I connected it via USB, and it printed perfectly. Also, I thought it could be a wireless issue, so I connected to the network via ethernet, but I got the same result as before.

Any help?

Thanks

nevermind, I fixed it. Turns out that I was using a HP PSC 950 driver, because that was the highest PSC in XP's list. The right way to do it is install drivers, connect printer with USB, then just change the port from USB to a network port.
