My computer won't print wirelessly to my Printer, and I really don't get why. When I tried and the window that comes up to show the progress, it popped-up another thing about "ordering ink." I took that as my cartridge was empty, so I replaced it. But it's still not printing, and I still get the message about ordering ink.
Trying to get around this, I put the document on a USB driver and plugged it into my Printer in order to print it that way. It said that it couldn't find a computer to print at, which I don't understand. Why the **** do you need a computer to ****ing print something when you're the printer?
And I'm positive it can print because I was able to print out the Printer's status, or whatever, manually from the printer menu.
Any suggestions?
Btw, I run a Vista and my Printer is a Dell P513w printer.

Wait hold on, you first talk about the computer not printing wirelessly, and then talk about how a printer won't print without a computer?
Hm, the first problem would be incorrect setup. Not so sure about the second problem. Also, when you printed out your printer's status, did you tell it to do so on the computer, or on the printer?

Hm, you wouldn't mind if I poke around your computer in Team Viewer do you? I wish I could help you but I don't know how different your printer's software is from mine.
