I have installed a couple in a wifi shared printer environment and immediately found the printing stopped . As per normal, I added the LAN trusted range but found another machine which had an old version of ZA on it couldn't ping the printer host machine until I moved the host machine's trusted zone slider to 'off' . After this, another machine which had the new ZA added, couldn't print . It could ping the host machine, however . I uninstalled ZA and printing resumed . Just a warning to tread carefully in a p to p environment . Personally, I am for jumping ship like most all of you advise!!	linw (53)
