Hi all

Trying to help a friend set up his wireless printer to print through a Sprint hotspot. Have the printer connected to the hotspot and printer has an IP address from the hotspot. I went into printer properties (on the computer)and configured a TCP/IP port with the IP address of the printer. I can ping the printer from the computer but I cannot surf to the printer or print from it. The printer drivers have been installed. My friend is in Az and I am in Il. I used Teamviewer to remote into his computer. Anyone tried doing this? As I am writing this I have forgotten the model, it is an HP and I think it is a D110 but not sure.

Thanks, Doug
