problem with the printer connected to windows vista,
I have a Canon PIXMA printeriP1900 when I try to connect it to my computer, I get a message that the printer driver is not compatible with a policy enabled on your computer of mine that blocks NT 4.0 I have Windows vista. Can someone help me
Go to the Canon Website and see if there are drivers for Vista.
http://www.USA.Canon.com/consumer/controller?Act=DownloadIndexAct
I don't see a pattern of IP1900 if you can't access the exact page. You will need to check your model number. If there are drivers for the version of Vista you have (32 or 64-bit), download and install. Do not have the printer connected until the installer tells you to do. If there are no Vista drivers for the printer, you can not run it under Vista.
You must also run the software printer Canon of an administrative user account.

Laptop computer connecting to the printer connected to the Airport Extreme
I will soon buy a MacBook Pro laptop and I'm interested in the way in which I connect to the printer connected to my iMac through my Airport Extreme.
Unfortunately, you don't specify how the printer is connected to the iMac, but let's guess that's via USB.
On your iMac...
Open the preferences system (gear on the dock icon)
Open the share
Enter a check mark in the box next to printer sharing
Close the window
Now, do the same for the MacBook Pro
Then, open Preferences system again on the MacBook Pro
Click on printers and Scanners
Click the + to add the printer to the MacBook Pro

PRI all-in-one HP Deskjet 2542: not the printer connected to the Modem
My modem (wired LAN) password and the name was changed recently and now my printer (HP Deskjet 2542 all-in-one) does not connect to the modem. The blue light just continuously flashes. This is the only change that has been done to my modem and this is the first time I tried to print. It is printed on the front. I called the cable company and they determined my modem was working fine and has suggested that to change my printer settings. I grew up the printer instructions on my computer, but could not find something that I could change my settings to match the modem. I think that's what the cable company told me to do.
My printer is mod. # SNPRB - 1204 - 02. If you need made more information let me know. It seems that this should be a quick fix, but I'm not a computer geek.
Hi @first100years,
I'd love to help you connect your printer to your wireless network. The flashing blue light confirms without a doubt that, for some reason, the printer is is more set up.
I found the following steps in this document: connect the printer after change of your wireless network.
The HP software automatically collects the network settings by temporarily connect a USB cable from the printer to a computer that is connected to the new network. Follow these steps to reconnect the printer to the network. -

Hi all
As shown in the topic, how can you install a printer driver without going through the connected printer?
We have a user who has problems with its layout with the DesignJet T120 and want to help reproduce the problem so that we can find a solution, but it seems that, without actually connecting the printer, the driver installation is less difficult.
We use Windows 8, but have access to all the operating systems.
Thanks for the solution!

Hi, my HP Photosmart C310b connected to the iMac often loses the print connection
When I go to print, I get a msg saying "cannot find printer" when everything is connected. It's like if it disconnects after a period of time. I have to completely restart the iMac and go through the tools/network/Wireless configuration wizard... so it works well. Any ideas why this happens? Thank you!
Here's a video for information on how to set a static IP address on the printer. Follow these instructions and let me know if this relieves the connectivity issues you have.

College Dorm Internet - impossible to get the printer connected wireless
First of all, let me say that I have 3 OfficeJet Pro 8600. The printer of love.
Second, here is a part of the background of my situation:
Bought OJP8600 for son go to College. In the dormitory, it is wireless which is encrypted.
WiFi@OSU is a front-end which feeds on the more robust secure portal, which leads to connect to osuwirless.
Can easily get its HP Pavilion on the osuwireless network. Name of user and password... no sweat (through the secure portal).
But when I configured the printer... She grabs the WiFi@OSU router and he seems happy. Problem is that computer of this son is on the osuwireless network. When I try to select xxxwireless on the printer, I get an error of encryption or application not valid. Duh.
Then... I'm guessing that a network administrator will need to add the printer?
I used a cable ethernet to connect to his laptop computer and that works. Awkward, but works. Suppose that I could also connect via USB, but also clumsy as it is to connect the wire whenever you want to print.
Thanks for bearing with me... here's my questions:
1. cannot get the HPDirect to work... maybe I don't understand what he does? I can see the host name in internet connections, but can not get the phone to connect to anything mode other than "limited".
2. a BlueTooth adapter would be an option? I know that my 8600 didn't BT resident.
Thanks for reading and your suggestions.

Help the unit connection voicemail in email configuration
Hi all
I recently did a 4.2 unit migration of Unit 8 connection that went well with the help of some of these people in the forum. As there is always something. Now, I'm running the questions fall my voicemail email accounts.
As I understand the connection unit will deliver voice messages in two modes:
1. via IMAP Inbox separately on the users email client.
2 store on the front, via relay about the unit settings.
I'm trying the second option. I have configured on the face of the unit connection, the appropriate SMTP domain (example, myname.org) and the name of the smart host (mail.myname.org)
Tested and I am not recieveing messages in Mail. Is there anything I need to look at the Exchange or the side users of the connection manager or call the unit that I'm missing?
Thank you
Dan
On the server connection to the unit, you don't want the SMTP domain to be the same as the domain of corporate email. By default, connection of the unit will implement its own SMTP domain... com (for example, hailey.lab.com). It is not a good idea to set up the domain SMTP overlap with an existing domain.
To SMTP relay, you must make sure that your host relay (mail.myname.org) is configured to provide relay services and also accepts the relay from the server of connection of the unit.
For the configuration of the relay, read this blog: http://www.netcraftsmen.net/component/content/article/70-unified-communications/695-voicemail-only-voicemail-relay-and-integrated-messaging-options-with-unity-connection.html
Finally, if you use the unit connection 8.5 you may exploit the unique Inbox feature which is Unified Messaging (i.e., voice message appears in the Inbox e-mail from Exchange users).

Please help, the printer does not have 'ink system failure '.
Hello
Any help appreciated. My printer is printer all-in-one Photosmart C7280.
2 days ago my printer has not worked. It comes with several error messages after I turn it on. The first is "ink system failure: ink system has failed." Cannot copy, receive faxes or print. Refer to the printer documentation. Error: 0xc19a0025. Turn off the power, then new. »
However when I turn off and then again via the "power" button, I get a message saying "abnormal termination. Then the same error message original returns (0xc19a0025). It is the most common error and won't go away. Then too, I get a message saying "problem Photo tray: lift the output tray, check the photo tray is pushed up to the stop, lower output tray. Despite the fact that I haven't used the photo tray in several months and it is in the correct position.
So far I tried to turn on the printer, shut down several times by using the power button. Also, I turned off the printer in making last night (after having been closed properly) and back on this morning. I looked through the documentation of the printer, but could not find tips for troubleshooting for this kind of problem. I updated the driver from HP using software update on my mac, and the problem is still there.
Now I get desperate, I rely on my printer/scanner/copier a lot!
Thank you
Nathalie
