Well its an HP-Deskjet 460 and since it works just
fine via USB I know its not a WinPrinter.

That XWLAN problem used to be gone in a previous
version, but now that damn tool is back to always
going above one interface # of the actual lan#.
So when my WiFi is on lan1, XWLAN always reports back
"lan2 disabled".
But there is *nothing* on lan2, and the most funny
thing is, when I use scan.exe is reports back that the
connection was established just fine.

Go figure.
