Dell's website is very slow right now, so I cannot look up all the information needed. I'm not sure if it has the wireless card or you have a 3300 wireless print adapter connected. Here's basic instructions that will help to to Setup your printer.
Scaning with USB. Open the Dell All-In-One Center and click on scanning and copying. Scan from there.
Wireless, use the scan button on the printer.
How are you connected to the printer? wired of wireless?
If wired, Disconnect your printer. Go to start/programs/Dell printers and un-install your printer.
Restart your computer.
Now go to drivers and downloads/select product/printers/select your printer. Download drivers, Utilities, firmware and Patches. From what I see, the patch is to remove the printer.
Install your printer drivers. You'll be prompted when to connect it.
Then install the firmware.
If wireless, fix your network first.
Update the firmware in your wireless router. Manufacturer's website, make & Model needed.
Broadcast SSID(You may want to change this to make it easier to connect)
Use WPA security
Mixed b and g mode(n if available)
Use channels 1, 6 or 11. Most devices work better on these channels.
After router is done, now setup your wireless print server/printer.
If wireless printer server is used, Plug USB cable into computer and print server. Insert the print server disk. Choose Network, then choose print server and follow the instructions. If the disk does not work for Vista, you may have to go to drivers and downloads and download the 3300 drivers and install from that program.
Now setup the printer.
Now go to drivers and downloads/select product/printers/select your printer. Download drivers, Utilities, firmware and Patches. From what I see, the patch is to remove the printer.
Install your printer drivers. Choose Network. Follow instructions.
LinkSys makes this "schweet" little PrintServer that works great.... provided you follow the screen-by-screen setup instructions on the setup cd exactly, and, it provides AIO support. The 3300 doesn't do real well with AIO support.
