MadGamer: I was about to say - when you connected you're PC to the wi-fi, which discoverable option did you pick - Home, Work or Public as one of these (I think public) disables the local network searching feature.

Also - what workgroup have to you added the printer into - if there's an option for it? Make sure it's the same as all the other PC's etc...
I selected the Private Option, and also made sure that all the PC's had WORKGROUP as the name.

ah thanks for that Kymmy
