In Vista Ultimate the Windows Fax and Scan permits me to edit the fax
settings in tools but denies configuration or establishment of a fax
account.  A message is received to the effect that to set up a fax
account it is first necessary to set the fax settings for the modem.

Unfortunately, Vista does not allow me to install a printer as easily as XP
does.
With XP, the printer add-in wizard would allow me to specify a local network
printer by specifying its address, eg //computer_name/printer_name.

Does anyone know if HP has yet produced a driver for the 1012 LaserJet for
Vista?
Many thanks,
Peter.

make my scanner work.
The software is up-to-date, but the scanning program says that the
scanner is not installed.

I have been unable to get my old printer up and going, worked for three hours
online with a HP tech, and tried about everything. Every time we made a
change, and asked for a test page, the message came up that a test page was
sent to the printer, but nothing printed.
