I have a HP Laserjet 2420 I would like to put into my network and print from my laptop computer. I plugged the ethernet cable into the back of the printer and the other end of the ethernet cable into my wireless network router and I am not able to print from my laptop. Any idea?

I have the router Cisco Valet Plus Model # M20. My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit operating system. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A665. The printer version is the HP laserjet 2420dn. Thanks.

Please remove the software from your laptop and use the Install Guide to install the printer on your network. This should resolve your issue.

Thanks for the guide, but I do not have the cd to install. Where can I get the cd? Or could I download the cd from your website? Thanks.
