7210 driver installed ok but can't find on the network

Hello and thanks in advance for reading.

I have an Officejet 7210.

I used on a network before without any problem, but put in place years ago. Since I used it on a USB connection, but wanted to get on the network, we can print wireless.

Currently it is wired to my router Linksys and I have assigned a static IP address of 192.168.1.148. This laptop is connected to the same wireless network, and from there I have no problem connecting to http://192.168.1.148 in a web browser to access the config and can also send a scan job through as well without any problems.

However, I can't understand how to add this printer at all so I can send print jobs. I have no success adding.

I use XP and installed HP multi-function products driver Bundle - Corporate only from this page. After that it extracted the files in the folder HP_WebRelease, I ran setup.exe it and he reportedly installed a bunch of stuff, but did not attempt to actually find the printer. When I tried to add the printer via the standard start > settings > printers and faxes, I can't recognize my printer on the network, and if I put http://192.168.1.148 in the URL field, it is not successful.

I tried to uninstall all printer software HP of Add/Remove Programs, and then restart, then install this same company pilot beam once again, which had no effect.

I then returned to the same page of the HP driver and tried to install the software/driver of basic function of HP . Same results with this one. But I do not think that I took the time to uninstall everything completely from the Group of companies.

If someone could suggest my next step to get this object linked, I would really appreciate it!

Thank you

Mark,

I think that you will need followi the instructions in the Readme file in the extracted directory. On XP, it should be here:

C:\temp\HP_WebRelease\Setup\Enterprise\readme

If you want to do a full manual installation, the sequence for XP:

  1. Click on the 'Start' button--> printers and fax machines.
  2. Under print jobs, click on "add a printer".
  3. Click 'Next' in the Add Printer Wizard window.
  4. Select "local printer attached to this computer. Deselect "automatically detect and install my Plug and play printer." Click "next".
  5. Under Select a Printer Port option, select "Create a new port" and choose "Standard TCP/IP Port" and click "Next".
  6. In the "Welcome to the Add Standard TCP/IP printer port Wizard" make sure that the printer is enabled and configured. Click on the button "next".
  7. Under "Add Standard TCP/IP Printer Port" enter the IP address of the printer (normally I would put the name of the printer here, but you use a static IP address for the printer). Click 'Next' and then click 'Finish '.
  8. Now, select HP in the manufacturers list, select your printer in the list of the models of printers and click the button "next".
  9. Keep the existing driver and click "next".
  10. Add the name of print spooler, and then click "next".
  11. Click "next".
  12. Click "Next" and "Finish."
