Feature: Wireless Printer, cannot print

I can't get my wireless printer.  Everything is set up fine, I just moved and got the internet in place today so maybe that is the issue, but someone has suggestions

Hello

Check with the printer manufacturer's support, their drivers and documentation online and ask
forums about known problems. OEM for the manufacturer of the printer is directly responsible for
the proper functioning of the printer and their drivers provided. Sometimes the help of those
same router machine resources are required.

I hope this helps.

  • HP 4500 wireless printer: printer all-in-one cannot scan glass

    My hp 4500 wireless printer worked fine until it just stopped printing.  I reintstalled the original installation disk and printing has been repaired.  However, the desktop icon for the hp Solution Center, which allows scanning of computer files, has not been activated, and accordingly, I am unable to scan from glass.

    New driver from HP site could not install completely and still have the same problem.  I tried to reinstall the existing drive, and it is still able to print, but still can not sweep.  The desktop icon is always off.  Didn't test the fax.

    I have here an updated driver that contains the implementation complete for the 4500 Wireless: G510n-z

    My system is Windows 7 64 bit.

    Please answer.

    Hello @rudetom,

    I would like to see if I can help you get your Officejet 4500 Wireless software working again.

    Looks like pieces of old software is causing the installation to fail. I would like to clean at the far (unisntall) and try again.

    When you have uninstalled the printer software, it is possible that pieces of it may remain which could interfere with a reinstall. I recommend referencing the steps described in this document to make sure that you haven't missed anything whatsoever; Uninstalling the printer software. * If you are connected with a USB cable, be sure to unplug it.

    You can also delete files using disk cleanup - take care to put check marks in selection boxes when it is available.

    Software drivers can hide other places would be in your device manager.

    To open Device Manager:
    ' 1) click on start (Windows icon) and enter the Device Manager "in the search field.
    2) click on Device Manager.
    (3) you can click on View, in the upper windows and then show hidden devices.
    (4) to develop the types of devices and check for any pilot associated with your printer.
    (5) to remove a device from Device Manager, right click on the device name in the list and then click on uninstall.

    For more information, see device for Windows 7 Manager information.

    Once you have removed everything, I restart your computer and then try to download the new software again to HP Officejet 4500 Wireless - G510n full feature software and driver.

    If you still have problems, please let me know what kind of error you get and how your printer is connected to your computer. What is direct installation USB or wireless?

    Please let me know if any of these steps has resolved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

    I look forward to hear from you!

    Thank you

  • Cannot set up and install a wireless printer. HP Photosmart the 427 UDP Port

    I know this question has been posted several times, and before I go, I want to report that I was researching spending last week and try every possible solution I've read. So I hope that someone can offer some new or still has outstanding question.

    Equipment: HP laptop, Windows 7, HP Photosmart Plus B209 all-in-one, Netgear WNDR3700 (Dual Band), Norton 360 Antivirus/Firewall

    My laptop and printer are both about two years. I have the wireless printer set up in my previous home on a different network (more old netgear router). No issues what so ever.

    So I recently moved into a new home, bought a new router and set up a wireless network. Everything works fine without thread; two laptops, xbox, ps3, tv, cell phones, etc.). I finally had time to set up the printer. USB works fine. But it can not configure for wireless use. I get the infamous (together with HP printers) error message that my computer cannot communicate with the printer and I need to open port 427 UDP. Tried twice more, but no dice.

    Uninstalled all HP software and the printer driver and re-downloaded/installed the latest things from HP website. Tried to install the printer and Wireless Setup again, but still no dice. USB works fine.

    And there began my long trip. Here is the list of things that I did without success, and I'm sure I did right. Turn off my firewall (norton and windows). Opens UDP Port 427 (norton and windows). 427 on my router (port forwarding) open UDP port. Maunally added the printer through windows as a wireless device. Manually add a network printer.

    I still get the same error of UDP port 427. Please PLEASE help me. tI really want to fix this and refuse to believe that something as simple as it is not repairable. Printers are cheap and I don't mind buying a new one (not HP), but I have enough stubborn to give my with trivial issues such as this.

    Hello

    I suggest you contact HP support for help.

  • Cannot connect my HP 6520 wireless printer

    I have this printer for less then a month, and although the scan is slow and printing is well it worked fine. I have recently moved to the University and I can't connect to the internet.

    Everytime I try, it says ' unable to connect. Unsupported authentication or encryption type '. I can connect to my iPhone and the Macbook Pro perfectly fine without any problems, but I can't seem to connect to the printer.

    I really need to work, given that I paid a lot for it and it does not only have less than a month.

    Can someone help me please? I have no information on the router, since it is the wifi at the University.

    Well do you have an Ethernet connection in your room?

    Options: Choose only one.

    1. connect the printer to your computer via the USB cable from the printer (not just a USB cable... a printer USB Cable).  Connect wireless to your network of schools.  Recommended.

    2. If you have an Ethernet connection in your room, you can connect to your computer via an Ethernet cable and you can now use the printers Direct wireless for wireless printing.

    3. switch back and forth between your schools network and wireless SSID Direct printers to print wireless.   This option would be less convenient.

  • 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).

  • C4780 wireless printer cannot find the access point

    I have c4780 wireless printer.  It will print fine using the usb connection, but has never printed wireless.

    PC operating system is Windows Vista.  Wireless router is the linksys WRT54G.  The printer does not see the access point.  The security mode of the router is WPA Personal.  I have a unique SSID.  ISP is Timewarner Roadrunner.

    How do I get this to a wireless connection?

    Try this firmware update.

    In addition, sweat you are broadcasting your SSID and not using MAC filtering.

  • RT of Windows cannot locate the wireless printer

    I have a new Surface Windows RT (not 8.1) and I'm unable to connect to my printer wireless on my home wireless network.  The printer (Brother MFC-J625JW) is listed as a compatible printer Windows RT by Microsoft and brother.  My printer is on, visible on my laptop Windows 7 via the wifi network and works normally.  The Surface is connected to the same network.  I entered in the control panel > adding a device.  The printer does not appear in the list.  In fact, the only thing that appears in the list (momentarily) is someone from another PC - but not my printer.   How can I get the Surface to find my wireless printer that seems to operate other devices normally and is on the same wireless network?  Thank you.

    Success.  The wireless printer now appears in the "Devices list".    The breakthrough came after installing the Windows Update screen Firmware updates.  I had already updated for Windows RT 8.1 (after my original message) from the window Store (free), but that has not fixed the problem.  I then went in the Panel, search the Windows updates.  Windows found 27 updates of firmware update that it installed.  2 reboots are needed.  After that, the printer has appeared in my list of devices.

    In response to your questions:

    1. & 2.   You are right: it is the MFC-J625DW.

    3. never checked directly connect USB since the Surface RT (now 8.1) was showing the printer.

    Thank you.

    just to check: on my WIN 7 PC, I cannot not BOTH

    Indeed by connecting to the Direct wireless network you will have no access to the internet, it is an expected behavior:

    Wireless connection issues > How do I print wirelessly without a wireless router? > Downsides to peer-to-peer networking:
    
    Your computer can only connect to one wireless network at a time. When it is connected to your printer, it cannot also connect to a wireless router (for Internet access, for example).
