My parents never let us watch any Christmas movies that alluded to religion in any way. Which, as you can imagine, doesn't leave many. I have never seen any of the classics except the Grinch and Die Hard

Printer is wireless. It is on our family network. We have 2 other laptops and they can all print to it as can my iPhone right now. This computer is the only one with an issue. I uninstalled the software. I then reinstalled the downloaded software from HP and followed the install directions. When it goes to search for the printer it says it cannot find it. I even typed in the IP address.

So they approved of a violent movie like Die Hard, but not a classic like "A Christmas Carol?". Weird, but hey, I am sure they had their reasons. Rudolph or Frosty are quite tame.

No dice. Did not work. The computer cannot find the darn printer.

My parents were...... unconventional. The first time I saw Rocky Horror Picture Show, for example, I was about five years old. We watched the Simpsons and Married with Children every week.

Okay, what version operating system are you running and what kind of printer?

Try to search for the Windows firewall and disable it for a moment, then try to search the ip or printer.
Also you sure the laptop is connected to the network?
Could the printer have a limit in the number of concurrent connections?
If you turned off the other computers, does the problematic one starts detecting the printer?
Can you ping the printer's address?
To ping the address of the printer:
press Windows key + R keys. it should bring the RUN prompt.
type CMD then click OK
an ancient looking MSDOS box with text will appear.
type "ping <printer address here in ip4 format>"
Sans the < > and sans the " " .
so if my printer is in 192.168.1.128 you type in the black box "ping 192.168.1.128" and see if it replies.

Try to connect to the printer using the supplied software.

Where we're going is only 45 minutes away, so day trip and I'm not drivingI would rather have people come to me because then at least I don't have to travel and can escape to my bedroom if needed.

I like the Naperville area it is fun. Congestion galore but as a visitor there is always something to do and the outlet has a large Disneyland outlet Aurora.

I stopped at Walgreens to buy a string of lights for my Christmas tree, and they were buy one, get 1/2 off. I also picked up some cute learning toys for my great neice's little boy. They were buy 2 get the third one free. My visit to Walgreen's proceeded my trip to the eye doctor. He scheduled my next eye doctor appointment for the day after my cardiologist visit. Hopefully I will get the AOK for my 2nd cataract procedure by then. It will be nice to have that all done and behind me.

Got outta' the office at 3:30-ish today...!!!
Ran outta' stuff to do. Finished one partners project, and then the other informed me that the tech working on his was running behind, so it wouldn't be ready for me to run with 'til tomorrow morning.
Which actually worked out fine, 'cause we were all about 3-ish hours ahead on our time 'cause of the holiday...as most of y'all know, we normally only work 5-ish hours on Fridays, but, all our paid days off are for 8 hrs.
So, I'm OK with this...!

Lets go together, so you can give me your crawfish
Yes, indeed!!!!!
Way back in the day, my youngest bro worked at a very popular place called Pearl's Oyster Bar here in northwest Austin. He was a food expediter at the time. They had a crawfish fettuccini dish that was insanely good, and when we went there, he made sure they doubled up on the crawfish in my order...!!!!!
SO. DARN. GOOD...!!!!!!!
