I cannot add a network printer to my Vista computer.
Using “Add Printer” in the Control Panel and clicking on “Next” after highlighting “Adding a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer”, a list of available network printers opens up, including the one I wish to install (Dell 1350cnw Color Printer). Selecting it and clicking “Next” a new window opens with a progress bar and a note saying “Connecting to Dell 1350cnw Color Printer”. I can see it is trying to connect, but after a while it stops with the following message:
“Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed
(error 0x000000c1)”
On this Vista machine, the printer appears as a network printer attached to a Windows 7 computer. The printer has also been installed successfully on an XP computer in my home network
“Novice Computer Solution” offers a free download of a program to solve the problem, but I don’t feel sure if that would be safe to use? Does anyone know about this program or have any other suggestion for solving the problem?
