  • Photosmart Wireless B109n-z: Impossible to connect the printer wireless to the new router

    I just changed my wireless router and can not get my printer to recognize the new router.

    When you try to reinstall with the disc that came with the printer it keeps "quit unexpectedly" at the end of the installation, but before I get to connect to the printer.

    The drive indicates that it is for use with Mac OS X v10.4; 10.5, but I can't find an option to update the web site HP despite it stating that my printer is still supported.

    I can still use the printer with a USB cable connected directly to my table, but this is no help for the other devices I have.

    Hi @Paulwrow,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!
     
    I understand that you are unable to connect your HP Photosmart Wireless B109n-z to your new router wirelessly. I'd be happy to see this with you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.
     
    The CD/DVD software will not work with newer versions of Mac OS X. HP doesn't have the drivers for this printer in Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan. The last driver out of this printer is for Mac OS X 10.6. The only driver available that uses the driver update from Apple. This causes a problem when reconfigure the wireless, as this is the software for help. It would be easier if you have another computer running an operating system that is supported so that you can install the full feature software to configure the wireless.

    As an alternative method, you can try doing as a guideline to connect the wireless printer. We will use the ad-hoc connection. With the ad-hoc connection, you can launch the built-in web server (EWS) to access the wireless configuration wizard.
     
    Use the following steps as a guide:
    Restore the default settings of the network:

    1. Press the button next to the wireless Menu.
    2. Press the button next to wireless settings.
    3. Press the button next to network by default.

    Once the network is reset, the printer should disseminate the ad hoc connection. It should look like "hpsetup" or "HP Setup (and part of the printer name or MAC address). With an IP address like 169.82.12.44.
     
    Then, connect to the network printer, that is broadcasting.

    1. On the Mac in the upper right corner, click on the wireless icon and connect to the network "HP Setup" or "hpsetup".

    Print the wireless test report:

    1. Press the button next to Scan.
    2. Press the button next to the wireless Menu.
    3. Press the button next to wireless settings.
    4. Press the button next to run the wireless network Test.

    Browse the test report wireless IPV4 of the printer (IP address) 169.82.12.44.

    1. Launch your internet browser and enter the IP as shown. This should load the printer EWS.
    2. Click on the tab network across the top.
    3. On the left side, click on wireless or network.
    4. Run the Wireless Setup Wizard.

    This is the only way to reconfigure the wireless, unless you have another computer that has supported the software.

    For more information on the ad-hoc connection, see the User Guide.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

  • OfficeJet 4630: Enter password to connect the printer Wireless - out

    Download you the manual and read it with a blanket as I just told him? Yes, the printer has WPS, simply follow the instructions in the manual (page 82) to see if get you lucky. The blue wireless light flashing means that you are not connected to your SSID, which basically we knew that routers. Follow the manual and try to connect via WPS, if not read all sections on troubleshooting.

  • Unable to connect to the printer wireless HP D110

    Bought a new printer D110 last week.  Turned on, it has detected my wireless router Actiontec (Verizon FIOS) with signal max, and I logged it, using my WPA key.  It appears that he successfully connected and returned a hard copy report indicating that he has passed all the tests, at the address IP 192.168.1.4, which is within my reach.

    However, when I told the installer to use wireless rather than in USB mode and entered the IP address assigned to the printer, she returned with a message that it cannot connect to the printer.

    I disabled all firewall and antivirus software and repeat this step again and again, same result.  It's on a laptop Toshiba Satellite brand new under Windows 7 Home Premium.  The laptop has had zero problems wireless in and of itself.

    I repeated the installation on a 8 years old Sony Vaio laptop running Windows XP Home Edition with all the latest service packs and updates.  Same result, failure.

    I checked the software admin to the router, checked that it has detected the printer and assigned to this address.  However, neither the router nor either laptop can ping the printer successfully.  Laptops can ping each other, and the router pings successfully.

    I went to USB mode and connected the printer to the new laptop.  Works very well.

    I'm guessing there's a permissions/firewall problem going on here.  I don't use MAC filtering.  I opened the port 427 incoming UDP activity.  No change.  Any help appreciated.  Thank you.

    You can try to run WIndows Update again and again to make sure that your system is the last and largest.

    Also, download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & Driver" link at the top of this page.

  • How to set the printer wireless ad Hoc mode to CP1025nw with automatic stop is off? IE never automatic.

    How to set the printer wireless ad Hoc mode to CP1025nw with automatic stop is off? IE never automatic.

    Thank you very much for your help, if necessary.

    Quite a few questions, send, but I will do what I can to answer them.

    I recommend first to buy a router, even if it's one you won't connect to internet and it network with others your PC and printer. This will give you the best features and the results of what you're trying to do.

    In addition, the automatic stop of the printer function can be disabled and is not affected by the type of connection. Usually, you can go through the configuration Menu and select tools to change the options there on the energy saving features.

    Finally, the auto off function on your computer is a Windows question, but one easy answer. If you're on a laptop, you can right click on the battery in the tray (lower right corner) and change the settings for energy conservation.

    You might be better off installing the printer via the USB cord and alternately inspiring when you use it, but which is not optimal if you are printing only a few documents on an irregular basis. A network connection is the easiest to manage across multiple computers, honesty, but you have certain requirements for this connection and limits as well.

    I hope this information is useful!

  • HP Photosmart C410 PC can't find the printer wireless

    I have my printer wireless for a year and all of a sudden it stopped working.  The printer says that the network connection is good without error.  But the PC does not see it and says that it is offline.  I restarted the printer.  Restarted the pc.  Connect the printer cable and it works fine.  Reset the wireless upward.  When I unplug the cable from the printer, even once the pc can't find it.  I've looked everywhere and can't find how to solve this problem.

    My pc is running windows 7.

    I finally solve the problem by removing the printer from the computer and uninstall all related software and put it back, from scratch.  This seems to have solved the problem.

  • How can I get my USB to the printer wirelessly to a network without a computer?

    If you have a USB port to the wireless printer and no computer to use software to do this and do not want to use the WPS option (or it is not available), then the following method can help.

    That doesn't get a key USB Wi - Fi, as the printer Deskjet 3512, on the wireless network when there is no computer available.  However, this can work from a computer as well if you prefer not to install the software.

    For these steps, I'll use an iPad.

    1. the printer will broadcast a wireless network of its own.  This has usually HP Setup and model of the printer in the name of the network.  Connect a wireless device to the network.

    2. Once connected, open the browser.  In my case, it's Safari.

    3. Enter the 192.168.223.1 address in the address and press go to access the status of the printer page.

    4. once there, there will be several tabs at the top.  Select network.

    5. Select the wireless configuration wizard.

    6 Select next at the bottom.

    7. it looks for available networks.  Select your network from the list and click Next.  The network should be highlighted, select it again if it's not.

    8. you will be asked the password.  Enter the password and click Next at the bottom.

    9. the printer should now be connected to the network.  It may take a few minutes to share.  Reconnect the computer or mobile device to your regular network and it should be good to go.

    I know that there are some users who have only a Tablet and a USB port to the printer wireless with no other way to get it on a network.

    I hope this information is useful to someone.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 - no USB or Ethernet cable to connect the printer to the computer?

    I'm just trying to set up my new printer Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless.  I got to the step of installing the software, but there seems to be no cable supplied to connect the printer to my computer.

    I can't currently connect via radio that I expect a new wireless router be delivered.  Is this the way onlt connection other than buying a separate USB or Ethernet cable?

    Help, please.

    Ethernet and USB cables are not usually provided with most of the printers that you need to choose a cable with a length of favourabel to you. You can go to a hardware/computer store and buy a USB A-to-B cable. I'll post a picture of the end of cable just to clear any confusion.

  • Connect the printer via the home router

    I have LaserJet CP1525, who has a wireless option... recently I moved my router on the different floor and can not connect to my my wireless home network option trough ethernet cable/router...tried on the printer, but "failed to connect".

    any ideas? Thank you

    Hi BoleczekNieduzy,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you have any questions, set up the printer on the network cable and even the wireless network.
    I will do my best to help you with this problem.

    Cycle power to the router.

    First, we must restore the defaults on the printer.

    Press the OK button on the printer, go to the service, and then select restore default settings.

    Print a printer configuration page to make sure that the IP address and SSID are erased.

    Print a Configuration report.

    Select the method.

    Uninstall the printer software.
    Insert the software CD into the CD drive.
    Follow the on-screen instructions.

    When you are prompted, select the connection through the wireless network.

    If you're still having problems, restore the default values and follow this method:

    Connect the printer to the router with an Ethernet cable.
    Wait about 1 minute and the printer must have a valid IP address.
    Print the configuration page to get the IP address of the printer.
    Type the IP address in the address bar of Internet Explorer which should open the printer's built-in web services page.
    Installing wireless over here now.
    Click the networking, wireless on the left, fill in information about the network and apply the settings.
    After the confirmation, then disconnect the Ethernet cable.
    Now you should have a flashing light on the printer in 1 minute wireless about.

    Run the installation again.

    I have provided a document to configure the wireless connection, or you can follow my different methods provided.

    Installation of the software of the printer on a wireless network or network (Ethernet) cable.

    If the Wireless does not always connect, to view these settings on the router.

    You have a double router broadband?
    If it is set to 5 GHZ network, you may need to change to 2.4 GHZ. (rename the 5 GHz or turn it off)
    The WPA key setting must be on AES to work properly not TKIP.
    If it is set to the 64-bit encryption, then change it to 128-bit.
    Multi flow must be enabled.
    Router firewall must be open for printer ports.
    If you have Mac filtering give you printer hardware to meet the needs of the configuration page.

    Please let me know if this is not the problem.

    Have a great day.
    Thank you.

  • How to connect a printer wireless to my laptop

    I have a printer HP Officejet wireless 6500 E709n Series and I'd like to connect wirelessly to my Acer Aspire 5734Z lap top. Please notify.

    The wireless printer is already connected to your wireless home network?

    If so do you have installed the software from the manufacturer of the printer wireless on your computer Win 8.

    For example...

    When I installed my camera HP J4680 AiO (print/fax/scan) on my Windows 7 computer, I did these steps...

    1. Creates an ad hoc connection between the J4680 and my laptop Win 7.
    2. Configured the J4680 manually with my network SSID and the encryption type and encryption key. I did steps 1 and 2 because my random 63 character ASCII encryption key contains characters that are not available in the network control panel on the J4680 wireless. If you use a key encryption without special characters, you should be able to configure just the network settings from the printers Panel Wireless.
    3. The provided HP software, including drivers on my laptop Win 7 installed. The HP software went out and found the J4680 on my network.

    The steps should be similar for your device HP OfficeJet 6500 E709n, IE. Get it on the first wireless network and then install the HP software on your machine, Windows 8.

  • do not print to the printer wireless network computers connected to wifi

    Don't know if I'm in the right Forum but here goes.  I work in a dealership service department. I have 4 computers connected to our network. I just bought a pro m426fdw mfp laserjet 4 in 1 ad printer connected to our wifi system because there is no available ethernet jack to connect to the main network. Is there a way to allow my 4 computers send information about this printer wireless?

    If you connected to your wireless network, and then run a report of network printer and find the ip address of the wireless connection. If you're in the list use to load the printer using add it printer, the local printer, create a port and the menu drop-down, choose standard tcp/ip and then follow the instructions on the screen. You can also try to load the disc that came with the printer and see if it will find the printer and load it for you.

  • Password to connect the printer to the wireless device

    Nobody knows what the password to default to connect a device like a wireless phone to the PhotoSmart 6525?  Alternatively, how do reset you the password?  I can't find on the touch screen of the printer anywhere.

    Pat

    Hi draftsman,

    I see that you are looking for a way to find the password or clear to the wireless directly on the Photosmart 6525. I managed to find a way to display the password, if it does not you should be able to restore the default values for the network.

    If you select Wireless > wireless Direct > show password, you should be able to see it there. If this does not work, go to Wireless > network by default. Restore the network default settings erases all settings, allowing you to turn Direct wireless and at this time, you can set a new password or not.

    I hope this helps.
