• Cannot find the printer on the wireless network

  My new 6500 a 710n-z printer copier copies very well.  Also, it detects the wireless network and is given an address 169.254.182.35.  I have reset the router several times using the WPS button.  But after I installed the software on my netbook ACER Windows XP, the computer cannot find the printer.  I spent three days trying to get the $% # ^ & * to work.  I see in some documents to get a 169.254. IP address, so I'm probably not connected?  But what to do?

  Well Yes, a 169.254 IP address... is auto-assignée when he can't get one from the router.  The WPS button does not reset the router.

  Do this on the printer: Setup > network > Wireless Setup Wizard. Follow the instructions.

• P1102w - cannot find the printer

  Hello

  I'm unable to print using a wireless connection.

  the printer is p1102w.

  operating system is MAC OS 10.10 Yosemite

  Whenever I try to print something I get "printer is not connected / cannot find the printer" message.

  I tried the solutions on your support site, but nothing helped.

  For sure, printer is connected to the same network as the computer. I see it on the print configuration page and I can connect to its IP address via a web browser (but I can't use web services).

  All software and drivers are up to date. Update Apple is nothing new to me. Niether have your site.

  I tried to move the printer closer and further away from router. No results.

  No web proxy is related to my network.

  To make this work, I have to remove the printer from my system, reinstall it using the USB cable, and then add it again via wi - fi.

  But some time the problem reappears.

  It's really frustrating. Help, please.

  Hi @xopot ,

  I see that you have problems printing via wireless network. I would like to help you today.

  Since you can access the printer embedded Web server, the printer would have a valid IP address. Most likely, it has something to do with the software that the printer uses.

  Fix permissions of the drive on the Mac:

  Close all applications.

  In the Apple menu, click OK, click Applications, and then click utilities.

  Double-click disk utility.

  Highlight your hard drive / partition on the left.

  Click on check and then repair disk permissions.

  Restart the computer...

  Reset the printing system:

  Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

  Click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

  Click on Printers & Scanners.

  Make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left white side panel, and then click Reset printing system.

  Click OK to confirm the reset.

  Type the name and the correct password.

  Click OK to reset the printing system.

  Then click on the sign to add the driver, highlight the printer +. (you may need to click the drop down menu to select the name of the printer) Then click the Add button.

  

  

  Configure a static IP address for the printer.

  The printer is not found during Installation wireless.

  Do not take into account the title. Select the Solution 4: assign your printer a static IP address.

  If you need help, let me know.

  Have a great day!
  Thank you.

• Error message: Windows cannot find the C:\windows\system32\drivers\prdmgr.exe file to start Windows XP.

  Original title: can't end file message system 32 drivers prdmgr.exe.

  Under windows XP when I boot, I get a message: windows cannot find the file: c:\windows\system32\drivers\prdmgr.exe and I already made a ststem restore and still get this message.

  Turn off System Restore. Use ccleaner and then go to tools/startup. Select it and click on delete. Are you sure its not the windows folder drivers? If its in the windows folder, is a worm/trojan. Looks like it belongs to the trojan.agent so sound in the drivers folder

  Use ccleaner, and then click run cleaner. First close the browsers

• Windows cannot find the program to open the exe file

  I did the windows repair option by restarting then pressed f8 to get to come repair options. I did it to try to remove a number of problems of virus on my laptop. It seems that it has solved the problem, but now when I try to access one of my desktop icon shortcuts it indicates that windows cannot find the program to open the exe file. She does it with every shortcut. I can access the location of the program and then select open with and it will be opened in this way, but there is not and I have to select each time. Another option that works is a right-click on the icon and selecting 'start' and who will run the program properly. Other than simply double-click the icons automatically no longer works since I did this repair.

  Windows Startup Repair fixed my problem, but now my desktop icons not properly opens with double-click

  Hi Scottud,

  If you remember the name of the file or the folder that you saved the files, you can use the search start, and search the files. See the link below: find a file or folder: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Find-a-file-or-folder

  You can even check recycle bin if you've accidentally deleted it and recover again.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

  1. Form when you try to open pictures? Is it in Photo Viewer?
  2. What type of files you are trying to open?
  3. You are able to open the photos in the Photos App?
  4. What is the brand and model of the computer?
  5. You did changes to the computer before this problem?

  I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

  Method 1: Run the utility to search and index and check.

  a. press the Windows key + X and click on Control Panel.

  b. click on Troubleshooting.

  c. Select display all on the upper left corner.

  d. perform research and solving problems of indexing.

  Method 2: Restart the Windows Search service and check.

  (a) press Windows + R key and type "services.msc" and press ENTER.

  (b) locate the Windows Search service and right-click on it.

  (c) click Properties and check that the start option has been activated.

  Method 3: If the problem persists, I suggest you to run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner (MSS) to ensure that the computer is virus-free.

  The Microsoft Safety Scanner free is a downloadable security tool that allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malicious software. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

   

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
