Windows Forum / Windows Vista / General Topics / May 20082 questions
(1) I installed an HP printer (USB) - it's a few years old and was from my XP computer. It works fine, but I don't see the start / printers option that always existed on XP and prior versions of Windows. (2) Where is start / find or its equivalent? Thanks- 1) Like in XP, you can find Printers in the Control Panel. If you want, you can display Printers directly on the Start Menu. Right click on the start button, choose Properties. On Start Menu, choose Customize. Scroll down, select checkbox for Printers. 2) Start button, Search. :-) But you can use Vista's powerful search straight from the textbox above the Start button. You don't even need to use the mouse. Press the Windows key, and type your search. It finds text in files (even non-text files), emails, favourites and more. And it's fast because it's pre-indexed. Also, any Explorer window has a search box. Be aware that if you want to search outside of Documents and other common areas, you have to open the search window and do a custom search.

That's only one question. Ramone > (1) I installed an HP printer (USB) - it's a few years old and was from > my XP computer.
