College Dorm Internet - impossible to get the printer connected wireless
First of all, let me say that I have 3 OfficeJet Pro 8600. The printer of love.
Second, here is a part of the background of my situation:
Bought OJP8600 for son go to College. In the dormitory, it is wireless which is encrypted.
WiFi@OSU is a front-end which feeds on the more robust secure portal, which leads to connect to osuwirless.
Can easily get its HP Pavilion on the osuwireless network. Name of user and password... no sweat (through the secure portal).
But when I configured the printer... She grabs the WiFi@OSU router and he seems happy. Problem is that computer of this son is on the osuwireless network. When I try to select xxxwireless on the printer, I get an error of encryption or application not valid. Duh.
Then... I'm guessing that a network administrator will need to add the printer?
I used a cable ethernet to connect to his laptop computer and that works. Awkward, but works. Suppose that I could also connect via USB, but also clumsy as it is to connect the wire whenever you want to print.
Thanks for bearing with me... here's my questions:
1. cannot get the HPDirect to work... maybe I don't understand what he does? I can see the host name in internet connections, but can not get the phone to connect to anything mode other than "limited".
2. a BlueTooth adapter would be an option? I know that my 8600 didn't BT resident.
Thanks for reading and your suggestions.

Hello
You try to open your printer can be used by everyone. The safest way is the use of USB cable.
Kind regards.

Want 5530: Get the printer code application for instant ink HP
Sorry its me again, I found the bit that says that I need to print a Web Services information sheet to getrequest to printer code. My question is now is that the only way to get a claim code?
Hi Sonicoffee,
You need get the ink cartridges before the printer can be set up.
New printers should come with cartridges. You can go back to where you bought your printer or buy cartridges online.
Good luck getting the printer all together to the top!

print module cannot get the printer device context
I can't get my printer to work. It seems that the computer does not recognize the printer when I plug. No printer symbol. then, when I try to print a square stands up and says 'printing module cannot get printer device context' I have no idea what this means or what to do about this please help
You need to get the print vendor drivers. You can try using a printer driver that converts data of the PDL even that interprets your device, but you should request this information from the company that made the device

After the Windows 10 update (don't like it) and go back to Windows 7 Home premium, impossible to get the Windows Update to run.
Sorry, but KB3153199 has replaced two times at the same time. It takes the new version of the Windows Update client to correct known issues.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/3161608
Manual installation requires a continuous search to be interrupted. The value of the automatic updates to "never check updates" and then restart Windows.

Original title: new printer
I replaced a HP with an Epson Stylus all-in-one printer and cannot get the printer to print more than one page when printing from the computer. The printer works fine when printing from a laptop or ipad!
Start by going here--> http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes&oid=232591&prodoid=63099059&infoType=Downloads&platform=nodetect
If the web page has not correctly detected your operating system, select it by using the drop-down list. Rather than using the "Combo package" recommended but huge, expand the "Drivers" section and download driver printer v2.32 to a location that you will remember later.
- Click on the ORB start and go into devices and printers.
- Select (click) the icon of your Epson printer.
- Once you have selected the printer, a button labeled "Print server properties" will appear in the toolbar. Click on this button.
- Click the "Drivers" tab on the print server properties dialog box.
- Select the Epson printer in the list of installed printer drivers, and then click 'remove '.
- In the context menu, select "Remove driver and driver package" and click OK
- Click Yes, and then delete
- Once the removal process is complete, restart the computer (probably not really necessary, but can't hurt)
- Install the driver and the software using the file that you downloaded earlier
At this point, your printer should work fine. However, if you want the ability to print by emailing a file to your printer, you may need to install both 'Remote Printer Driver v1.65' in the category 'Pilot' and "v1.30 utility Configuration of printer Epson Connect" in the "Utilities" category

How to install (gdiplus.dll) to get the printer to work?
HP Presario cq62 notebook, HP deskjet 3845, windows7, error message reads as follows: gdiplus.dll is missing. How to install this to get the printer to work?
Hi RDT49,
Gdiplus.dll error messages may appear when using or installing some programs when Windows starts or shuts down, or maybe even during a Windows installation.
The context of the error in gdiplus.dll is a key piece of information that will be useful while solving the problem.
Cause of Gdiplus.dll errors
Gdiplus.dll errors are caused by situations that lead to the removal or corruption of the gdiplus.dll file
In some cases, gdiplus.dll errors could indicate a problem, a virus or malware Registry problem or even a hardware failure.
I recommend you contact the manufacture of your computer to help solve the missing DLL file problem.
