Default Epson wireless printer - cannot connect [OT, I know]

Hi guys,

I know there are several groups that are better suited to this post, but
the collective experience here has been valuable to me over the years so
I thought I'd drop a post in here, too. I'm helping someone get their
new Epson TX800FW wireless printer going. It works fine via USB. I can
ping it from Vista. However, even when I set the printer port to point
right at the printer (ip address or name) Vista cannot print to it, and
the network printer search does not find it. Any ideas? I've never
played with one of these beasties before.

TIA,

Ari
