• Cannot connect Windows XP to the wireless printer.

  WINDOWS XP PRINTER WI - FI CONNECTION

  I have Windows XP Media Center Service Pack 3 OS that worked a HP Photosmart Plus B209 a - m with a USB cable.  Since I just bought a new laptop (Windows 7 Professonal OS) I decided to create a home network with a router Cradlepoint MBR 900.  The two laptops (XP and 7 OSs) were connected to the internet via the router with no problems.  Windows 7 Pro OS laptop is connected wireless to the printer Photosmart Plus, I had implemented as confiquiration wireless the printer first.  But the failure of the attempt to get the OS Windows XP Media Center to connect to the wireless printer.  During the installation process to connect the printer to the XP system wireless it asked me to choose which printer I wanted to connect to.  The Photosmart Plus printer was selected and visible, then I clicked Next.  Shortly after, a small screen appeared stating the "serscan.sys" file could not be found and I have to insert a Windows XP Pro CD to get the file or run the installer of this file.  This issue has occurred both when I tried to install it with the CD provided by HP and when I tried installing the HP download website.  All I have is a recovery for Windows XP disk provided with the laptop and not a CD Windows XP Pro.  What should I do to fix this?  Thanks, Lonnie

  Thanks, that was fast.  Please, let me make sure I have this correct.  First of all, I have two recovery disks provided with the computer, with Windows XP Media Edition and one for the drivers.  I should not use either of these disks, right?  If I had the previous correct answer then let me ask the following question;  When looking to borrow the disc should be Windows XP Media Edition or can I borrow any disk of Windows XP?  Kim Merci for your help continues.  Lonnie

  Lonnie,

  Before the hunting around for friends who might have a CD, do the following research.  For each of them, make sure that you have checked the search options in the 'Advanced Options' to

  • Search system folders
  • Search for files and hidden folders
  • Search subfolders

  Search your entire hard drive and both CDs you have to serscan.  Do not include the .sys at the end of the file name.

  Search for Driver.cab.  Report of the Office (s).  On your hard disk, you should find one or both

  • C:\Windows\i386\Driver.cab
  • C:\Windows\Driver Cache\i386\driver.cab

  You can also find these files on the "recovery disk".

  Report what you find, including locations of found nothing.  It is possible (but I don't think likely) you will find a file named serscan.sy_ - If Yes, include this information in your results.

  Or, if you want to ignore all this, you can download serscan.sys since my SkyDrive-->

  https://SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?CID=18b259158254905b&RESID=18B259158254905B! 225 & Thierry = 18B259158254905B! 214

  The file should go to C:\Windows\system32\dllcache (a hidden directory) and probably in C:\Windows\system32 (I do not use this file, if it is not in my system32 folder).

  Or you can just save it to your desktop and "direct the Setup" it there (if you do this, check more later to confirm that he got into C:\Windows\system32\dllcache and if not, put a copy).

• Unable to connect to the Dell 966 wireless printer.

  Original title: unable to connect to my wireless printer

  My laptop is a dell running windows vista and I have a Dell 966 printer all-in-one. I can't have printer to pick up the signal from my laptop wireless. Im not to share the printer also. All the indicators are on my laptop and printer. I also have no ip and not the gateway ip address.

  Hi gus,.

  Than you for your message.

  "I can't printer to pick up the signal from my laptop wireless."

  You use a wireless router to share your network?

  "I also have no ip and not the gateway ip address."

  Is - with reference to the computer or the printer?

  "The question is my cell phone and my printer can not communicate. My printer does not have an IP address.

  You try to get the laptop to deliver the IP address of the laptop?

  I propose to move the printer closer to the network router to isolate the interference problems.

• HP 2540: Connection iPad2 at the HP wireless printer

  Can I connect iPad 2 to hp 2540 via Att hotspot using AirPrint myfi? I thought that the iPad 2 could connect directly to an HP e-printer anyway

  Hello

  Another option if you encounter problems, make him print the password is disable password protection. You will be able to do in using of frontage on the printer and find the menu option that relates live wireless. When you find it, clear apssword protection.

  Once the logic of direct apssword wireless is disabled you should be mean to connect the printer directly without the need of a password.

• Unable to connect my laptop XP Prof on printer Officejet J6450 AIO usb (in network)

  Due to some problems of scanning, I have reinstalled my AIO on my USB port of office instead of the old Dell (Windows 7-64) ethernet link. However, I'm unable to connect from my laptop with XP Pro. I downloaded and installed the latest version of the software of full J6450 and can do a test print, but cannot access the printer through the center of Solution, that's why the scanner and other features are not available from the laptop. Also, is anyone know hence the hp software file is extracted to so I can re - run the Setup file?

  The IOA has a w/l button, so I'll try an instalation w/l on the laptop.

  Hello Tracer_C

  Thanks for responding. The error was 'the scan cannot be performed because another program or computer uses... ". "The w/l installation was successful, after that several unsuccessful attempts. (I accept the blame for it). After 2 or 3 tries, I noticed the obligation to connect the printer to the USB port of the laptop to install the drivers. Apres_que the drivers have been installed the software it reset the network, and it does not connect until I plugged in the printer on the desktop).

  I thought I could do a no-w/l installation, but it is just as well, because I don't often print the laptop anyway, so I can keep the w/l off on the router function until I need to print from the laptop.

  I found the installation for Xp folder: C:\Documens and Settings\Temp\7Z***.tmp\Setup.exe Settings\nom of utilisateur\Local.

• Unable to connect laptop to a wireless printer

  Hello:

  We have a laptop HP with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

  and a HP all-in-One Photosmart Premium C309g printer/copier/scanner.

  It was all together upwards and work wireless very well for a few years.

  Our wireless router went wrong.

  We replaced our DSL modem and the wrong Linksys router with a modem router Netgear.

  We have established between the bridge and the laptop's wireless connectivity.

  We are unable to establish connectivity between the laptop and the printer wireless.

  Printing works fine via a wired connection.

  Is this connectivity issue... cannot connect wireless...

  a network configuration problem & sharing Windows... or... is there something that needs to be

  configured in the gateway provided by AT & T?

  Thank you

  DaleB

  So, you configure your laptop to recognize the bridge and he knows the SSID and password, but you have set up your printer for the same SSID and password? Until you do, it will NEVER work wireless...

  You will need the manual of the printer as it must be installed at the end of the printer...

• How to connect wired computer to the wireless printer.

  I spent hours on the phone with a representative of brother yesterday to try and get my DCP-L2540DW communicate with my computer without the computer being on wi - fi, without success. We already all this up and running, but we had to get a new router and configured Time Warner Cable technician differently things. I tried to re-creation of the network on the printer, but that did not fix the problem.

  I tried following all the steps that I can find online and the brother of troubleshooting, but I had no luck with either. Thanks in advance for any help

  Lets try to connect the printer using the LAN cable connection and see if you can get your PC to connect to this first. Disable all wireless on the printer and the whole upward for the connection of LAN cable.

  FYI: If the ISP's modem has a built-in router, it is best to fill the modem. Having 2 routers on the same line can cause connection problems: link >http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/fixing_double_nat.htm and http://computer.howstuffworks.com/nat.htm if the modem cannot be filled then see if the modem has a DMZ option and enter the IP address of the router gets the modem and put it in the DMZ modems. Disable any WiFi modem from the ISP and filters such as firewalls and other. Make sure that the printer and the PC is connected to the EA router and not the ISP's modem.

• Is it possible to connect the HP Photosmart C4780 Wireless printer without USB cable?

  Hello

  My family and I recently moved and while moving, something inevitably get lost or left for account.  I am fighting to get this printer and will so I don't have to bother people at the front desk at school to print my documents for me.  I have lost/misplaced both the HP Photosmart C4780 printer software disk and the USB cable.  I have no idea where these things are and have not found them within two months, we've been in the new House.

  I solved the issue of the loss of the installation disk by downloading it from the HP site.  My problem is now getting beyond the USB connection and get the currently installed software.  Because I run on a MacBook Pro, it always tells me that I need the USB key to continue the installation.  I'm on a Verizon Wireless router, and I even tried to find the printer on my wireless network with no luck.

  Help, please!

  Thank you.

  It's the type of cable you will need (ignore the color of the cable, the ends are the important part).

  

  Have a new router is not a problem, but remember the SSID and password wireless exactly, otherwise it will not work (if you decide to try Method 1). It's a bit like "trick" your printer into thinking that your new router is your old a long enough to configure the network settings for the new (desired).
