HP3050A losing connection to pcs but not ipad

[apritchard]

I have an HP3050A, which works fine from my iphone and ipad.  It's connected to my hub, and will also print wirelessly from the two PCs I use.  However, after a while it loses connection to the PCS - or rather the pcs cannot print to it.  I can see it on my hub, the IP address doesn't change and if I reboot the pcs they'll print fine for a while.  I can't constantly reboot the pcs everytime I want to print from them and restarting the printer doesnt work.  Everything else is fine on the hub and everything else works.  Anyone got a solution?

PCs have Windows XP 3.  Have one of the pcs connected to it via USB now so I can at least use it that way.

I've tried the HP diagnostic tool to no avail.  Firewall, antivirus all set up properly.  So, in essence, it likes my Ipda nd Iphone but won't talk to my PCS.  Shame because I bought it to use with the PCs

Perhaps I should have said that it's wirelessly connected to my hub, it's just that you can't initiate a print from either of the PCs that I have installed the software onto. I wonder why it works so seemlessly from an Iphone and Ipad but not from a PC??
