Cannot find valid printer URL to add a printer for windows machines

To make it work fine in linux mint, I had no complaints there.  The problem is that I am installing this on a corporate network with a system operating heterogenious environment.

Here's what Linux Mint uses to connect to the printer:

[code]

HP: / net/Officejet_Pro_8600? ZC = HP28924AB60113

[/ code]

Which works very well!  It is fantastic for my work laptop connect to the officejet 8600.  But windows machines are resistant to the installation.  I don't really know how to convert the above link to a url that would include windows.  Does anyone know how to print of the officejet on windows machines?  Windows machines are critical and can not simply be reformatted with Linux.

Thank you

  • 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.

    Also have a related problem about MS Maliciouws software removal tool.

As my computer came with Windows preinstalled, I do not have a disk and will not take the risk of damage, that I can't fix. Do I not download or not... ? Another solution... ?  I also fear that this tool could settle into the routine Win Update and need guidance on the prevention of this facility, if possible, or what to do if it cannot be prevented.

  • HP Officejet 5740: HP Officejet 5740 printer for laptop connection problem: "cannot find a printer".

    I'm trying to set up my new printer Officejet 5740 and I got to the stage where I need to connect the printer to a laptop computer or mobile device. I went to 123.hp.com and follow-up stages. My printer is correctly connected to the internet, but when I tried to connect it with my laptop via wifi, I got a screen that says "cannot find a printer". Before that, he asked me to put the IP address that appears in the settings of the printer wireless.

    I have a dual band wireless router, and it seems that my printer can connect only to the 2.4 GHz frequency range. My laptop can connect to the scales of 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. I made sure that the laptop was connected to 2.4 GHz when I did this step. I even Redid the same process on my sister's laptop (she has 10 Windows), but I came across the same problem. In addition, the screen with the error message says what must I make sure that the firewall has not been in the way of the connection. I tried to disable the Windows Firewall, but I still have the same result.

    I am at a loss for what to do here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm positive, I put the correct IP address, and I even tried to use the host name. Also, I know that my laptop and the printer are connected to the same wireless network. Everything I did for this step in the installation process has been with wifi (not ethernet, USB, etc.).

    Good news! I thought about it. I have all my wireless settings to reset to the default factory settings and that fixed the problem. Something about the State of the router must have been extinguished when I put in place the first time. Thank you for helping me!

  • Cannot install network printer on Windows 7. Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver. All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions? How can I fix it?

    Cannot install network printer on Windows 7.  Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver.  All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions?  How can I fix it?
    Windows Server 2008 network.  Printers have ip addresses. Install the drivers from the Print Manager.  /Terminal Server Workgroup installation.

    It's the same situation with XP.  The print driver names must match.  If you notice the name of the printer driver that uses XP is a name different from the one that is installed when you plug in the device on the Windows 7 computer.  This is just my assumption, please correct me if this isn't the case.

    The real solution is to install a 32-bit driver on the XP machine that uses the same name that the 64-bit driver and share a printer using this driver or find a 64-bit driver that uses the same name as the 32-bit driver installed on XP and install the driver on XP.

  • 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.
