I have a network printer that I have assigned a static IP. It is connected to a hub which is connected to my router. There is three hubs on my home network.
The problem is that I can ping and print from any computer on the network when I am connected hard wired to a hub or router, but if I am connected to the network wirelessly, then I cannot ping the printer, and thus cannot print to the printer. I have a HP printer that is setup and accessible to everyone and setup this way, but not this one new color printer setup in a similar fashion is not accessible unless you connect to the network wired.
So - wired - good. Wirelessly - can't ping.
Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.
