  • guest computer must have access to the printer host cannot use

    I have a new Mac, an old Mac, an old Windows machine and printer of Xante AW1200.

    Almost all of my work is done on the new Mac.  I get the old machine Mac or Windows of the drawer on rare occasions, or when I need to print something, because the new Mac cannot use the printer.  (Xante never taken the trouble to develop an OS X 10.6.4 driver for this printer.)

    I would like to get rid of the Windows machine.  I have it successfully migrated to a machine of comments on the new Mac, using vmware Fusion 3.1.3 but I have not found a way to get the computer to see the printer.

    This isn't a complete surprise, as Xante does not provide a driver for their (former) printer and (my new host) operating system OS X 10.6.4 - but they were planning a WIndows XP driver that has always worked well on the Windows machine, connected by the RS232 port.

    The printer also works very well on my old Mac, connected via ethernet.

    Can I connect the printer to the new Mac's ethernet port.  Of course, the Mac cannot work with it.  But could the guest computer use Windows sound driver to manage the printer?

    None of the four standard ways of printing seem applicable: ThinPrint because the host cannot use the printer.  USB because the printer is not a USB connector.  network / wireless because I do not have my old Mac running all the time.  Hello because I think that it requires that the host can see the printer.

    It certainly isn't a frequently asked Question.  Sorry, my situation is so unusual.  But the printer is special enough for the work that I do.  Any tips?

    Thank you.

    If you have a router on your site then you should be able to connect the printer to the router, configure it as needed, and then accessing it in the comments as a network printer.  Note: The guest network should be configured as connected by a bridge to access in this way.

    Another option of network which is doable, but a little more difficult to set up, is to fix the printer directly on the Mac with a standard CAT5 Ethernet cable, not a Crossover as suggested in the Ethernet Port of Mac being automatic detection User Guide.  You would then manually configure the IP address, etc. on the printer and network bridged on the comments and even if Bridged his only access to the printer on this network adapter.  Then use a second network in the guest configured as NAT, if you do not also use Bridged on that, to enable the client to have access to other resources on the physical LAN to the host, such as Internet access, etc..

    Hello

    What is the operating system installed?

    Download and install the complete operating system software of features appropriate for your printer. During execution of the tasks of maintenance on your printer, it is better to go in the HP, not the properties of the printer dialog window software.

  • Cannot access or use the printer installed on Windows 7 x 64

    I can't install an epson printer.  I have install the printer administrator drivers and the installation seems to unfold without error messages.  However, I can't access the printer and windows asks me to reinstall the drivers.  Why drivers are not accessible to the printer and as an administrator I refused access to the printer?  I think I might have messed up the security settings for some of the driver files.

  • HP Photsmart 7520: cannot print list albums drop itunes. ITunes won't have access to the file.

    Also would like to know ho to print in pdf format

    manniesm

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    You are asking two different questions - and two different approaches.

    iTunes has restriction policies regarding its records - for example, you cannot save data in certain areas of the installation of iTunes, even if you essentially the rights to most of your computer.    You cannot write in protected areas - other areas, you can still access the files or data.

    Maybe you can make a list of the songs you have, depending on how you go about it and save this list to a file - and then save this file in a location on your computer in which you are allowed to save files.

    You can save a list in Office Word (.docx) format, and then save this file in a .pdf format.

    You can then print this .pdf file.

    If you can view the files on the screen - and an image will suffice as a 'list', you can use Snip to create an image of the file and then print as your list.

  • Photosmart 7510: Access to the separate wifi network printer

    I have 2 wifi networks, for the expansion of the range in my house; We built my router (Fios) fios and others (Asus) connected to the same router via ethernet.  My printer is connected to the wifi Fios network.  When I'm at the back of the House, I connect my laptop to the Asus wifi network but am unable to connect to the printer.  Is there a way to make the printer visible on both networks?

    Hi @lsrothstein,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see you're wondering if you can access the printer HP Photosmart 7510 of several networks at once. I'm happy to answer that question for you!

    The printer is designed to work only on wireless at the same time. So to be able to print to the printer, the cell phone/mobile device must be connected to the same wireless network to which the printer is connected to. think of it as an invisible cable from the computer to the router, to the printer.

    This website, HP Wireless Printing Center - basics wireless, goes into great detail, if you are interested.

    Hope that answers your question and have a great day!

  • Lost access to the preferences of the two priniters printer

    If I understand correctly, Windows XP indeed cannot replace printer drivers in certain circumstances.  The best way to go is to make sure that the old (maybe corrupted) driver is deleted and then reinstall the printer using an installation package of fresh driver (usually obtained by downloading from the website of the printer mfr).

    1. Unplug the printer.
    2. Uninstall the software associated with the printer using the control panel > Add / Remove programs.
    3. Open Printers and faxes and delete the printer (right click > delete)
    4. In printers and faxes, click file > server properties > tab drivers.  Select the driver concerned, then click on remove.
    5. Restart the computer.
    6. Run the installation package that you downloaded.  Do not connect the printer until prompted by the installation program.
  • Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied.

    From: Steve

    Desperately, I try to print from my laptop Windows Vista Home Premium to a shared printer on my home wireless network.  The shared printer is connected to a XP Home machine.  This machine is wired (via a LAN cable) to the wireless router.  I can 'see' the printer that I want to use but trying to to connect to it. I get the error message "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied. "I would be grateful for any help.

    Kind regards.

    From: Alan Morris [MSFT]

    Since the XP machine is HOME, I don't think that the permissions dialog box is accessible.

    Run the XP network sharing wizard again and see if it affects safety correctly on sharing.

    Is the printer you share one that has drivers provided with Windows XP?

    In the meantime we will at least get the printer works for you.

    Create a local printer on Windows Vista; Creation of a Local Port in the form \\XPMACHINE\Printsharename (this will send the files by using the redirector instead of the RPC service).  Install the Windows Vista driver for the device.

    You can print because print$ access is required for printer drivers.

  • Need to know where in the system folder of Windows Vista, I can access the printer for a shared printer drivers .inf files

    I have a printer that is attached to my system down Dell Windows XP, I want to access the floor running Windows Vista from my Sony system.  I managed networked the printer so I can see it in my Sony Windows Vista network folder.  However, when I try to access it, it gives me the following error msg:

    The server to the printer 'HP Photosmart 1215 series' doesn't have the installed printer driver.  If you want to find the right driver, click OK

    Otherwise, click Cancel and contact your network administrator or the original equipment for the printer driver manuafacturer.

    I advanced and clicked on "OK". and the system brings up a box for me to find the correct INF file to load.  I went ahead and tried the DRIVERS/WINDOWS/INF and a few other places, but has failed to find (any) of printer drivers

    Can someone tell me where I can get these?

    Download the appropriate driver from the printer manufacturer's web site.  If it contains a Setup program, run the program and when it asks you to specify the printer installation, create a local printer whose name is \\xpsystem\printer where 'xpsystem' is the charing system printer and "printer" is the name of the share.  This should create the printer.

    You can also expand the downloaded driver and try to add the printer as you did before, direct the installation to the folder containing the driver that you downloaded.
