HomeGroup and wifi Home Network printer incompatability?
Hi all,
New to Win 7 and have for the past couple of days been searching all over the WWW for answers and solutions to the following. I have been on countless discussion boards and tried everything that has been suggested, but I am no closer to finding solutions.
1) I am the only person in my household with a win 7 computer, so I would like to remove my laptop from the automatically generated (?) HomeGroup ( I sure did not set it up!) But no matter the suggested fix I end up with the same message: Windows could not remove this computer from the Home Group.
If there has been a suggested fix out there, i seem to have tried it. No luck.
My Brother wifi printer has worked just fine with my old laptop, my tablet and my smartphone, and which shows up in Devices and printers as the default, available, online printer, as well as in my network. I have installed and reinstalled the drivers and software 3 times now, and gone through all possible configurations and troubleshooting in addition to googling solutions... still seems unable to communicate with my laptop.
Which leads me to the following two questions:
Are HomeGroup and Home Network wifi printing in conflict with each other?
And does anyone have any proven, recent solutions for how to fix both above described issues?
Solid leads would be greatly appreciated so that I am able to get some sleep
