Had configured the FAX printer and checked the modem's working properly in the Device Manager.

Any clue on this problem? Does it related to the firewall setup as it's ena... 5 13.07.2007 14:57:22 Cannot use Add Printer Wizard All of my printers are gone in Printers and Faxes, and I cannot add a printer, using the wizard.

It would be great to create those configurations temporaryly-dynamically at runtime not affecting the static configurations. For instance, instead printer name you specify the full pa... 3 12.07.2007 19:47:42 Cant print from a website A couple weeks ago, I started having a problem printing from websites.
