Then it hangs with a circling image circle "thing" right to the left of "Looking for printers..." Just sits there and circles and circles. Is there a way for me to tell it to tell me what it is hanging upon? This could be a user authentication issue or a network issue, but since there is no messaging shown then I don't even know where to start.
