C4599 printer connected to a different network than computer

I have a c4599 printer that was working wirelessly with my vista HDX18T while I was living in Maine. I moved to Boston and am now using wireless T-Mobile internet and it will not work. I thought maybe because I had a new ISP address it wasn't working so I uninstalled my software and tried reinstalling it but now I get this..

 

The PC and the printer are connected to different networks(10.246.144.0 and 169.254.0.0).  They must be connected to the same network.  This can happen when you use the manufacturer's default network name (SSID) and another nearby network is using the same name. 

 

What can I do to allow it to work wirelessly?
