Hi everyone I have tried connecting my printer multiple times and its just not printing. My laptop detects it there but they just arent talking to each other. I have tried installing the software and many troubleshooting attempts. Does anyone have any tips? The Printer is a DeskJet 2131. Thanks heaps, Stephanie
