DeskJet F4580: help! DeskJet F4580 no USB cable wireless configuration!

Hello!

I recently got an opportunity of HP Deskjet F4580 of my university degree all-in-one wireless printer and I can't understand how to set up for printing. The person who gave it to me had more the USB connector, but they said I should be able to put it up though as it is a wireless printer.

The problem is that all of the messages that I found on this issue, said either connect manually to Wifi using a USB cord, press the WPS button on the router for a long time until it the printer automatically connects to the router (I tried this and nothing happened), or press the wireless to the printer and then connect to the wireless connection , it emits and then use this method. The question ultimately is that even if I am able to get the flashing blue wireless key none of my devices wireless recognizes the printer as a wireless network (at least not as far as I understand).

I tried to set up since yesterday and I'm really mixes responses to what I should do. Can someone please help me solve this problem?

Thanks in advance

Yes you will need a cable to USB printer like this.

  • HELP: DSC-HX9V lost USB cable

    Seems we lost the USB cable for our HX9V camera and cannot charge the battery.

    I need to get a new USB cable as soon as POSSIBLE and I was wondering what the correct type of USB to get, because there are darn many of them?

    BTW, Sony is crazy... they charge almost $20 shipped to buy a new.

    What I expect when I'm at Best Buy or similar store? Mini-B? Micro?

    Thanks in advance.

    The original poster questioned another cable - using a single to connect the camera to the PC (for the transfer of the image) and the battery in the camera. This cable is a USB key, from what I can tell, a connector SONY owner (ugh!). You can find these cables on Amazon or eBay, if you do a search for "HX9V USB cable. They should cost less than $ 10.

    The second poster is pointing out another cable, is used to display images on a TV.

  • Problems when printing with USB or wireless - offline message

    Hello world

    I use a HP ENVY 4500 with a laptop Acer Aspire laptop and a desktop computer HP Pavilion 500, both with an Intel i7 and Windows 8.1. Initially, I configured the printer to work with both PCs wireless. The wireless network is provided by the modem of my provider (Telenet), so it is not very strong I increased it with Devolo powerline adapters. Print is fine, only when I want to print more pages then 3 print job is stopped in the middle of page 4. I get a message that the printer could not print the document, and the page comes out half print. I connected my printer with a USB cable and configured to work with USB, but also wireless. But that Don t always works, today, I tried to print a document from Mozilla Firefox and it would not start. The printer can be used on both sides without choosing the connection?  Also I get the message that the printer is offline and cannot print the document, even if it's actually printing.

    When I open the doctor print & scanning everything seems to be ok wth the printer, no defects are detected. Wrong me?

    NOTE: HP recommends that you turn on Direct wireless security. If you turn on safety, only
    users with the password will be able to connect wirelessly to the printer. If you disable security,
    anyone with a Wi - Fi device to the printer WiFi range will be able to connect to the printer.

    c. Select the display name to display the name Direct wireless.
    d. Select Show password to display the password Direct wireless if you live wireless

  • DeskJet 1010: Printer lacks USB cable out of box

    What says the subject; Miss me the printer USB cable right out of the box. I have found nowhere on this site to report such a question, so if someone could send me to where I had to go or be able to directly help me that would be much appreciated!

    For more details, I bought the printer at a local Walmart but have moved since then and am unable to go back there, so I am looking for HP itself.

  • Cannot install HP Deskjet 3050 a using USB or wireless.

    I tried to install a printer HP Deskjet 3050 a on my computer recently.

    After inserting the CD her usually install page appears. When I choose to install the printer through the USB port, the program continues normally until it beginning to insert the USB cable.

    Having said the computer software does not meet attaching me the USB cable, just on the same window.

    When you try to install the computer over the network, it starts to check the network environment and will then pass the same window as before, indicating that I need to insert the USB cable.

    My USB ports work correctly, but the computer address to find the printer.

    I have a Dell Inspron 530 with Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit.

    Hi Silvuss,

    I would suspect im a defective USB causes such behavior, such as cable used to direct connect also although it is used to establish the wireless connection.

    Please make sure that the USB port was not plugged launcing before installation, enter the control panel > printers and ensure there is no Deskjet 3050 a icon exists. If there is such a, delete it by clicking on the icon, and restart the PC, then try following the installation again.

    In addition, make sure that the USB port is not longer than 2 - 3 m long, directly plugged on the ports of the PC and not through USB hub or extension that will reduce its power.

    I also suggest that you try another cable and see if that can help you.

    A last suggestion, make sure that the CD and Printers lists the exact model as it must contain eighter HP Deskjet 3050 has or J611, make sure that there is no difference that its previous model have a similar name (Deskjet 3050 J610).

    Hope that helps,

  • Deskjet 3050 a problem change from USB to wireless

    I got a Deskjet 3050 a printer attached via the USB port of my desktop HP Win7 64 bit for a year and a half. Attempts to convert the USB wireless. Instructions lead me the start--> all programs--> HP--> HP Deskjet 3050 J611 series a--> convert USB wireless.

    But when I open--> series HP Deskjet 3050 a J611, my only choice is:

    Connect a new printer or

    Add new software

    Nothing on the conversion of wireless USB. If I click 'connect a new printer' I have the choice of:

    USB connection

    Connection Ethernet / wireless

    Connect again later

    If I select wireless connection, it tells me to connect the USB cable. It is been connected for more than a year. But the button "Next" is gray and I can't move forward.

    If I select USB connection, it tells me to connect the USB cable. It is been connected for a year. The only choices I have are to return to a screen or check a box that says I'll connect it later, not now. I don't have to check but the 'Skip' button is gray and so I'm stuck again. I tried to turn the printer power off and moving the USB cable to the USB port of different desktop and power on printer again. I tried to reset the default printer on the printer control panel. The software does not believe that the USB is connected. This is the case.

    I pressed the button on the control panel of the printer wireless. It flashes blue.

  • Help, please. Not detected HP Desktop F4500 wireless printer same w/a usb cable

    My wireless printer has a mind of its own. When I got it, it printed... wireless. My router freaked out & did not work, so I unplugged my router & used my dsl cable to my laptop to connect. I tried to plug the usb cable from my printer to my laptop so I can use it & it didn't work. I brought my printer at the show & restarted my laptop... it worked w / the USB for a day. I got a new router and now my printer is not working yet. RAWR! Help, please. I don't know what to do. It is not work w / or w/o a cable. I've restarted both, but nothing. Thank you all ;-D

    Unplug the USB cable from the laptop, then remove the icons of printer to the printer from your laptop too. Now click on the Menu start > all programs > HP > HP Deskjet F4500 > add a device. Now follow the instructions to reconfigure the printer to connect to your new network. You must connect the USB cable between the laptop and printer ONLY when you are prompted to do so and not before it.

  • DeskJet 3511 change from usb to wireless

    I'm moving my printer all-in-one Deskjet 3511 of wireless USB to one. I use on my Mac OS X Mavericks and the access point for my network is an AirPort Express Terminal, if that makes a difference. I tried to use the Setup Wizard, the application of configuration easy wireless, etc and nothing has worked yet. I don't know if I have previously configured something I forgot and need to reset the printer to factory settings or if there is something other that I'm missing (which is not unlikely).

    Hi kitkatkaiti,

    I understand that you cannot set up the printer on the wireless network. I can help you today.

    Print a configuration page to see if it provides the SSID or the IP address of the printer.

    Printing a Network Setup Page.

    You can restore the default settings of network on the printer.

    Go to the configuration, the wireless menu, select restore defaults, Yes.

    First, check the encryption and password for the network.

    To check the encryption type:
    In the Apple menu, click on Go, selection of applications, utilities, Keychain Access, on the left side, click on passwords, double-click the name of the network, check the show the password box, type your Mac password to see.

    To check the network password:
    In the Apple menu, click on Go, selection of applications, utilities, Keychain Access, on the left side, click on passwords, double-click the name of the network, check the show the password box, type your Mac password to see.

    Try the printer configuration using this method:

    Turn it on wireless Direct.

    Go to the configuration menu wireless, direct and turn it on.

    Go to the airport and connect to the network printer.

    Then, type 192.168.223.1 in the address bar of Safari.
    It will load: the printer server Web part, click the network tab, select Setup wireless on the left.

    Fill in all your information. Apply the settings.

    Reconnect your network name.

    Then add the printer on the Mac, because the software is already installed.

    Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
    Scanners & printers, then click the plus sign +.

    Select the printer in the list. (Make sure that the printer is listed beside the use: displays the name of the correct printer and not Airprint) Click the Add button. (you may need to click the drop down menu to select your printer)

    Test the printer.

    Let me know how make you out.

    Good day!
    Thank you.

  • HP ENVY 4500 e - all - in - a principle: HELP! Can I use firewire-USB cable to connect the HP Envy 4500 for MacBook Pro?

    Help, please!

    I just bought a FANCY 4500 e-all-in-one printer for use with my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) during a trip. I use WiFi in the hotel.

    I tried to connect printer and wireless laptop. It is not the case. Printer connects to the network. Mac connects to the network. The 4500 just want stands as a device when it is time to choose a printer.

    I read all the posts proposed, searched the forum looked at HP printer support. I can't find any solution for when this message appears:

    «ATTENTION more than an access point/router wireless was found which corresponds to your wireless network (SSID) name.» If this is not intended, your HP printer can connect to wireless wrong. To avoid this problem, change the name of your wireless network (SSID) to be unique.

    "If you change the name of your network, you need to configure the SSID on all wireless devices to match your new network SSID".

    I guess I can't rename the network name of the hotel's wireless, so I'm ready to go on the road to cable. Envy has a firewire port. My MacBook has just USB.

    ==> Se connect want 4500 and Mac via a USB-to-Firewire my best cable option to print while I'm in the hotel?

    ==> Or there, does anyone know a work around?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Ah, Yes. The old Grasshopper see that it is just another form - Type B - USB port on the printer than on his laptop computer.

    Why would I want to connect via WiFi to the hotel? Obviously because I was not think properly.

    Thank you for your patience and response.

    I click resolved when I print from my laptop.

    First of all, he is out to buy a USB cable.
