connect the printer to the wireless network

I have a HP Photosmart C4580 and I'm trying to connect to my wifi on my mac network. I used it for a long time to print via USB cable but I want to print wireless.

Help please? It drives me crazy. I don't know what to try next.

Thanks for the reply

Since you have the Mac OSX 10.9.2 from a USB connection to the wireless is a little more difficult, only because there is no complete features of HP software to help us.

First, you will need to restore the default settings of network on the printer. For that;

  • Press the Wireless on the product
  • Press the button next to the arrow down on the screen until restore network
    Default is highlighted and press OK.
  • Confirm that you want to restore the default settings of the network.
  • Press again the Wireless on the product
  • Press the button next to the arrow down on the screen until Turn Radio One or turn
    Radio Off is highlighted, and press OK. (Radio must be on)

Now, on your Mac, click the wireless on the left corner ( ) and join hpsetup. Once the Mac is connected to this network, we need on the printer print a test report;

  • Press the Wireless on the product.
  • Press the button next to the arrow down on the display until wireless network
    Test is highlighted, and press OK.
  • Make a note of the IP address

Open Safari on Mac and enter the IP address in the address bar, a page of the printer should load for you. Click on network > Wireless (802.11) > advanced, which should bring you to this page:

From there you can enter the SSID of the network you want to connect, enter the WEP or WPA - PSK password and apply the setting. Once the printer is connected to the network, replace the Mac on your network and you should be able to add the printer.

Let me know if it works for you

    I can't connect to the internet using my wireless network connection. I had made the diagnosis and he stated that "the DHCP is not enabled for the wireless network connection. I had checked the DHCP, but it has been activated!... Someone would give any suggestion for me to solve the problem?

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type services.msc and press enter . Search The Client DHCP and check if it is enabled or disabled. If disabled then turn it on and see if the problem still persists or not.

    Open the run command box by pressing Windows key + R, type cmd , and press enter . At the command prompt, type ipconfig/all and press ENTER. Now, check the IP address, default gateway, DNS etc. If you find all the information is correct, but you cannot yet access the Internet so if you connect the wireless network is secure or not. To determine the glance to the wireless network icon in the taskbar, then click on it. It will show you the available wireless networks. If there is a "yellow shield" present on the network icon, the network is not guaranteed, if there is no "yellow shield" does while the network is secure. In a secure network, you might have a "network security key. In this case try to disable the 'Network security key' option for this network. To do this:

    Open Control Panel , click network and Internet , click network and sharing Center , click manage wireless networks on the left.

    In the list select the wireless network and do a right click, select Properties, Security disable tab all options that is, in security type do not select no authentication (Open) and to the type of encryption , select none . You can also activate the automatic connection and SSID settings to further enhance connectivity, on the connection tab, click to select the "connect automatically if this network is in range " and "check boxesto connect even if the network is broadcasting his name (SSID) .

    For more information click here and see how you can determine whether a network is secure or not.

    If the problem still persists, then check your firewall settings and make sure that the firewall is not blocking your Internet connection. Some software Antivirus has a built-in firewall and they block by default all unknown connection to the tightening of security.

    Try to restore Windows Firewall default settings. Open Control Panel click on network and Internet , click system and security , click Windows Firewall , click default settings .

  • 4 iPad unable to detect the C4599 already connected to the wireless network printer

    Hi all, I have a C4599 All in One Printer. I have just set up successfully with a WiFi connection to my router / modem network (infrastructure mode). There is no error message and I can print from a variety of laptops Windows (XP, Vista and 7). I loaded the HP eprint app on my Ipad 4 but it can not detect the printer. Note that the HP site says that this printer is compatible with the App ePrint.

    A second and possibly related is that I recorded with the HP eprint service website but I can't get the code or e-mail address for my printer. I can't find any way to turn it on the Web Services on the printer? (The HP site says this should be under Setup > wireless to the printer, but it is not.) There are only options to turn on/off the wireless, testing the wireless and print the wireless network and printer settings (which are all OK > PASS or information).

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    With the update that has been done to the ePrint application, some of the old printers lost the ability to use this application to print from. The printer would not print directly from the iPad to the printer either. This is a feature called AirPrint. When you have the possibility to use AirPrint, he must place the unit on the same network as the printer, pull up a photo, press the action button on the iPad and then select print. The iPad will then give an option of the printer to print from if there is more than one printer capable of of AirPrint on the network.

    The printer cannot produce a code to register and save ePrint due to the age of the printer. Printers that have the ability of ePrint are a majority of those who have been in production in 2010 and later versions. A few Photosmarts who have the ability to use ePrint AirPrint are the 7520,6520 and the 5520. To learn more about these printers, see this link here.

  • HP Deskjet 2540: My printer cannot connect to the wireless network (SSID is not found)

    Hello

    I have a HP Deskjet 2540 printer that is configured to print using the USB cable, and I have no problem printing through it. I just bought a router (D-link DWR116) and I'm trying to set up the connection to the router wireless to my printer. When I use the printer setup & software and select the option "convert a connected USB printer wireless", I can choose to enter into the setting of the printer access the router automatically or manually. These two will come with the same problem where the program is my name SSID of the router successfully but then failed to connect to what the SSID is not found.

    It comes on it comes up with the error message:

    Question: You have manually entered the name of the network (SSID) cannot be found.
    Solution: Check that your wireless router is powered. When to manually enter the name of your network (SSID), make sure you enter exactly including upper and lower case and spaces.

    Which is meaningless because it came with the SSID earlier and I chose what options the wireless network available. I tried to manually enter the SSID, but after entering the password for the router, the same error message appears.

  • HP Photosmart B109: cannot connect the printer to the wireless network

    I have some setting wrong my printer for wireless printing. It has worked well in the past, but with my new macbook air - this isn't.

    I can't access the function where to add the printer to the wireless network (my router does not support WPS so his password WPA).

    I remember setting this up on a PC - easy with the driver provided by HP, but on the Mac, the configuration tool does not appear to be a function where I add the printer to the wireless network - and HP did not provide a driver, because it is supposed to work with the mac built-in software.

    The manual says only: "follow the instructions on the screen", but the printer does not have instructions on how to connect - on-screen tests, only that it is connected...

    Anyone who knows how to add the printer to a wireless network?

    Hello @Joahkim!

    Welcome to the HP community!

    I understand that you have a problem to set up all-in-one printer wireless HP Photosmart (B109n) with your new MacBook Air OS x 10.10. I want to help you with this.

    Have you changed your router or your password since the MacBook Air? If this is not the case, your printer can still be connected to the network and the trickiest part of that place will be done for us already.

    We will print a Network Configuration report to see if it is connected:

    • On the Control Panel, press the button next to Scan. The Scan/Wireless menu.
  • connect a HP D110 printer to my wireless network and can't seem to select the printer as the default printer.

  • HPC8180 printer connects to the wireless network, after upgrade firmware to the router wireless

    My HPC8180 has been wireless since I bought it some time ago.  I recently had to upgrade the firmware on my router wireless of Netcom NB9W and since then my HP will not solve for the wireless network.

    I run the wizzard of wireless network on the printer, select the correct SSID and enter the WEP key according to the instructions.

    It will then not connect.

    Print the summary I have says that it passes all except:

    No filtering = Fail

    Connected = do not run

    Signal strength = very weak (which is strange because it is about 10 feet away from wireless router).

    Other networks detected matching your network name (SSID) = No.

    Summary says:

    Network Name (SSID) altnet (correct)

    Address IP = not applicable

    Configuration source = not applicable

    Communication mode = Infrastructure

    Authentication type = open system

    = 64-bit WEP encryption

    I have NOT activated the mac address filtering

    Any ideas?

    Your router appears to be a DSL modem-router.  Those who can be difficult to connect to.  In addition, WEP can be problematic and is no longer a measure of security.  WEP can be broken in 10 minutes approximately with the freeware on the internet.

    We will do three things:

    1. replace the WPA or WPA2 encryption.  You can make your own password.  Do 13 or more characters, numbers and uppercase and lowercase letters.

    2 reset the default settings on your printer network (configuration > network area).

    3. attach to the router in this way:

    Sometimes the DSL providers have more control over the router like the printer.

    -Unplug the phone line from the router
    -Cut the power to the router, wait 30 seconds, then turn on the power.
    -Go through the normal process of the printer connected to the device (wireless configuration wizard)
    -Now to find the IP address of the printer (it should be on the self-test printout), type it in a browser.
    -On this screen, you will find a tab management network, then on the left wireless, then the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you know what it is, set an IP address outside this range but not exceeding 254 (the last number of the address).
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Let the white gateway and DNS
    -Finally, connect the telephone line, restart the router and the test.
