Windows Network Problem

I just bought a new printer because my old one had network problems.. well, my new one does too and upon research, Im finding that its a problem with my Dell. 

My ! is" File and print sharing resource is online but isn't responding to connection attempts. "

I usually network with a laptop but that is now missing. When my laptop printed with my wifi printer it worked once then it got kicked off the network as well as the printer. II usually had to uninstall and reinstall the printer. Im not sure what will happen with this new printer. .probably the same thing. 

Cannot call Microsoft or Dell.. out of warranty. Figures.

Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1

Dell Inspiron 570

Hi integrityblue,

Welcome to the community.

Please let us know the model number of the printer you have installed on the system. And does it keeps disconnecting from the wireless network.

Also, if possible check the same printer on a different system to isolate it is not an issue with the printer itself.

Thanks and Regards
