Connecting a printer to a laptop

I just purchase acer 4720 laptop running Vista and i have multifunction printer LEXMARK X 4550. I managed to make the connection from the PC and printer. However, I can not access the printer from the PC.

Can you help me ?

Thanks

If you want to connect through WIFI then you must know what type of network you have already ie, are there already other devices that operate in WiFi. Wishing you only connect the printer directly to the wireless computer, or should it go through the router to the livebox to connect to your PC and possibly other computers,

The set is connected to the Inventel LiveBox with a cable. The laptop is connected to via WiFi and it works well. Now I would like to use the Lexmark X4550 (wifi) with the same laptop using the WiFi.

As you tried to assign an IP address to your wireless card to the printer? This is the simplest. Simply assign an IP address to each adapter. Of course, it is necessary that the IP is on the field m ^ me. see if your printer has a DHCP server because it does not require that there is 2 DHCP server on the same network. Retains only the DHCP of your router.
