text: This is your solution. You will have to set up two profiles one for home and one for work. Now I am not talking about a different user profile with a different name. This is a hardware profile. I will assume that you are running windows XP. DO the following goto Start/control panel/ system/hardware tab/at the bottom of the the window you will find hardware profiles. Select that one, where you are at with your laptop right now will be profile 1 or current. Check the box that states "Wait until I select a hardware profile. Select properties then check portable computer. IF you use a docking station at work have it dock and choose yes. When you take it home the first time after this and hook up your printer there you will set up the new profile and name it 2 or home.  This will fix your problem.
