Change the security key on a C4580 all in one printer

I use my C4580 for several weeks now without a problem and has been taking place as a WEP key. However after some problems of network security I improved the security of WPA. Obviously my printer would not connect with these new security settings, so I looked for updating them, however, I see no way to do it. I deleted the printer, drivers and all and reinstalled many times, I downloaded the latest drivers, but whatever I do, he'll never find the printer when searching for it, it's like there is no. I thought that the default reset using the control panel of the printer would work, but remained without effect. Is there a way to adjust these settings, or do a 'true' factory reset to get this printer doesn't work. I can make it work like USB, but this defeats the purpose of haviing a network printer. I can't believe that once security is set is set for life!, but what it seems.

See you soon

Hey thanks for that I have spent many happy evenings frustrated when he said "cannot find the printer", I assumed that because the security key was wrong. I followed the video, ignored, when he says he can't find it, and hey presto, everything works. so simple... Without doubt, I did that when I installed it first, but who was so long ago.

See you soon

  • HP Photosmart C4580 all-in-One Printer compatibility with Windows RT

    Original title: HP Photosmart C4580 all-in-One Printer

    My HP Photosmart C4580 all-in-one printer will always be compatible with Windows RT and my new Surface?

    Hello Jade_E,

    Your printer will be compatible with your Surface RT when HP develops and releases a pilot of RT for the HP Photosmart C4580. Hope it's soon.

    Have you tried any other HP drivers when you install this printer on the Surface? Because these drivers are generic, one of the other HP drivers might work.

    If you find a driver that works, please let us know which driver he is. Thank you!

  • How to do a full (level 4) uninstalling the software of a photosmart c6180 all-in-one printer?

    I have to do a complete uninstall of my printer, because when I try to uninstall from the Control Panel, or the cd, it does not completely uninstall! Then, when I try to re - install, no icons are visible! and I am unable to view or change the print settings, scan, copy or fax. I tried uninstalling and re - installed from the site, also. Can someone help me solve this problem? If it helps, I'm on XP Pro and Internet Explorer version 8. My computer is a HP pavilion model # m370n.

    Since you have an HP computer, I would say that you uninstall to level 3.

    Level 4 uninstalling will remove all traces of the HP software, which can eliminate more than you want to, especially if you have an HP computer. I suggest you do a level 3 uninstall as follows: load your driver CD and navigate to the directory util\CCC on the CD. There will be a series of commands, uninstall_L1.bat by uninstall_L4.bat files. I suggest that you run uninstall_L1.bat, then uninstall_L2.bat, then uninstall_L3.bat.

    I suggest that you do not run the uninstall_L4.bat file.

  • How to use the scan on a 4215i function all in one printer

    How to use the function scan with this printer with windows 8. I did the installation but the scan function is not wwork

    You have the printer Officejet 4215 all-in-one?

    If so, then there is no complete features in the printer driver.  The printer is using the Windows printer drivers Update menu.  For more information on using the driver from Windows Update, click here.

    You have this printer connected via USB?  If so, then there is workaround methods to get the printer to scan, as the old software package is not available on Windows 8.  In the above linked document, scroll down to the section on how to scan with updated driver for information about how to perform these types of scans.  I hope this helps.

  • HP Photosmart C4580 all-in-One: the hp Device Manager

    I recently moved and wireless printing is no longer available, because I have a new router, etc. I'm trying to go through the steps to get my printer to print wireless again. I started with the (difficult to understand) online books and forums, but I encountered a problem.

  • I FORGOT the ADMIN PASSWORD FOR - (WEB PAGE) - HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus e-All-in-One Printer - N911g

    Hi all

    I changed my network SSID & PW but I forgot the password for the printer web page.

    Password was written in a notebook and notebook is moved at the moment by the cleaning person.

    Please HELP! Is there anyway I can reset the printer so that the admin password is also re-set. I try to reinstall the software printers, also I am not able to change the ip address and right now, there is no ip address... get no link and no ip address and no network... Please anyone who can help... Please help.

    * I read some part... to power off the printer, then press the power button on... and continue pressing the back button where he would have, for some time the printer is back back (it was to reset the printer)... which is about 23 times... zero.

    I really want to THANK you ALL for READING THIS & YOUR TIME. So please help if you can...

    and ideas?

    Thank you, xxVEGASxx

    * xxVEGASxx *.

    You can do a reset of the printer using the LED screen on the printer.

    Select Configuration, then Tools, then restore the default settings. "Restore default settings" is the last element of the list and you will have to scroll down to see it.

    Which erases all settings, including the password for the printer.

    To reset you describe is probably the one mentioned in this article:

    http://resetprinters.com/how-to-reset-the-HP-OfficeJet-Pro-8600-premium-all-in-one-printer/

    but it's probably a deeper reset that you really need anyway.

  • VMPlayer cannot detect the scanner for all-in-one printer?

    Hello.  I am running Linux Mint 14 in VMPlayer on your desktop AMD Win7 hexagonal base.  The implementation uses a MG5320 Canon all-in-one printer on a wireless network.

    Symptom: When you try to use the scanner under Linux software, I get an error that does not scan.

    Comments: I know that the printer is connected and can print from VMPlayer.  I used the scan software successfully in a Win7 laptop boots double in Linux Mint 14.  Therefore, the only difference is running Linux Mint in VMPlayer.

    How can I get the functionality of the scanner of my all-in-one printer with VMPlayer?

    TNX in advance for all advice.

    The 'virtual' printer in the virtual machine settings through the present printers on the host - there should be no impact on your ability to 'normally' adding printers inside the guest.

    Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the same type of printer, and I'm not Linux.

    The thing is useful that maybe I can tell you, is that you may need to configure the virtual adapter as connected by a bridge instead of the default NAT.
