How to locate a network printer by using IP address

Using Windows XP Pro SP3

Add a printer Xerox Phaser 7800 network to the network with a static IP address.

PC cannot 'find' the printer, but the Mac can simply enter the printers IP address and is instantly connected.

  • How to add a network printer?

    How can I add a network printer?

    The printer has a wired connection to a router.  Its local IP address is 192.168.1.105.  The name of the printer is NPI64867B.

    My laptop has a wireless connection to the same router.  Of course, access to the network works fine, since I can submit this announcement.  Also, I can ping the IP address of the printer from the laptop.

    I have in the control panel printers, click Add printer, select "A network printer", select "Browse for printer", then click Next.  The following text is displayed:

    Note that NPI64867B does not appear in the list "shared printers.  Does?

    If I manually enter NPI64867B in the box of the printer and click Next (which should work?), I get the following error:

    If it's important, I have another printer in network configured on the computer.  It's for another domestic network, so it is not connected now.  The name of the printer is NPI6AAA13.  I deselected the option 'Always print to this device, even if its IP address changes', nothing helps.

    The port of the existing network printer name is the name of the printer, HPLaserJet200colorMFPM276nw product.  The printer I am trying to add has the same product name.  Is this a problem?  If so, can I change the name of an arbitrary name (currently unused) pre-existing port?

    Do this way:

    1. Open Printers and faxes
    2. Click on add a printer
    3. Click "Next", select "local printer" and make sure the box "Automatically detect my printer Plug-and-Play" is NOT checked
    4. Click "Next", select "create a new port", then select "Standard TCP/IP port" in the drop-down list (Note - If the printer that you are adding is an HP printer and if the drop-down list includes "HP Standard TCP/IP Port" select that instead; more details later)
    5. Click 'Next' in the standard TCP/IP Printer Port Wizard Welcome screen
    6. For "printer name or IP address" type 192.168.1.105; the "Name of Port" box is filled in automatically, but you can change it to something more useful, like Office LaserJet or a printer room bedroom, etc..
    7. Before you click 'Next', confirm that the printer is turned on
    8. Click 'Finish' to complete her Add Port Wizard and return to the add a Printer Wizard
    9. Select your model and the manufacturer of the printer and the wizard

    A very common problem with the printers on a network that are left at the default setting for automatically an IP address is that they have a different IP address by the DHCP server on the router if the printer is turned off for a period of time.  The Windows printing system does not detect IP address changes, and therefore the communication with the printer is lost.  'HP Standard TCP/IP Port' has the ability to detect the printer, even if its IP address changes.  You should definitely select this option or - and this is the best practice - assign a static IP address for printers all in network.

  • Add a network printer by using different credentials in Windows Vista Home Premium

    Hello

    I am trying to add a shared network printer (from server) of a computer running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. The user must authenticate by using different credentials, but I can't find a way to force Vista to connect with different credentials.
    In Windows 7, it's easy, I just add an entry in the credentials manager and everything works, I can connect to the server, access to all of the actions that the user has access to and add the printer.
    In Windows Vista, I can't do that. "" If I try to add a network of credentials in the "stored user names and passwords", I can only add a "a Web site or program identification information. "A credential to Windows logon" is greyed out.
    When I try to access the share in Windows Explorer, I get an access denied. Instead of having Windows pop up a dialog to authenticate, he tries just to the help of the currently connected user credentails, which isn't what I want.
    If I try to add the printer using the Add Printer Wizard-> add a network printer, when I enter the path to the printer, I also have an access denied instead of bring up a Windows authentication dialog box.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • How to install a network printer in Windows 8?

    Hello

    Need help.

    I have an Epson L210 printer installed on Windows XP computer and the printer is shared. Other computers in the network and all this are Windows XP, everything can connect to the printer.

    This is the problem, the L210 Epson can be seen from the device and printers, option to add a printer to my laptop Win 8 but the problem is when I try to connect, the system can not find the driver to install the printer in my laptop Windows 8. The most funny thing is when I try this with Windows 7 and XP PC, I can easily connect and install the printer.

    What gives?

    TNX in advance.

    Given that Windows 8 is much more recent and has a lot of changes in XP cover, the same driver may not work.

    Download the driver for the printer from Epson.com. If it is not a driver Win 8, trying to find one for Win 7. Unzip the driver on your hard drive - if you run the downloaded installer, you will be able to decompress the files.

    When you add a printer, rather than letting Windows find the driver, select the option to choose the driver manually. It lets you choose a location - pointing to the folder you unzipped the driver to.

  • How to remove a network of organization using the vCloud API?

    Hello

    I try to delete a network of internal organisation, using the java sdk:

    AdminOrgNetwork orgNetwork = getOrgNetwork("myNetwork"); // This will query vCloud and return a valid object
    orgNetwork.delete(); // This failes with: "com.vmware.vcloud.sdk.VCloudException: HTTP method not allowed"
    

    For some reason it isn't working and I get ""HTTP method not allowed ". "

    I also check the xml object returned by vCloud and I noticed that missing the link delete:

    <OrgNetwork xmlns="http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1.5" name="myNetwork" id="...">
        <Link rel="up" type="application/vnd.vmware.vcloud.org+xml" href="..."/>
        <Link rel="down" type="application/vnd.vmware.vcloud.metadata+xml" href="..."/>
        <!-- Onetwork details -->
    </OrgNetwork>
    
    

    Removal of network does not enjoy using the API? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong?

    No matter what support in how to actually remove the network (which btw is also created using the API) would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    I think you are trying to delete a view of the user of the org network.

    You should try to suppress the display of the admin of the org network.

    What do you do under the getOrgNetwork ("myNetwork"). How do you get the org network. I think you found the network org user here.

    Get it from the VcloudAdmin-> AdminOrganization-> networks.

    Kind regards

  • How can I get my printer to use just the color cartridge for the black & white you are exhausted?

    Whenever my on my dell printer black ink cartridge runs out, I'm generally left with a color cartridge, which is a total waste of money, because they are purchased together in a common case; is it possible that I can tell my printer to switch to the color cartridge and use that one until 'she' runs?

    I did a search for authentic cartridges, not refurbished which are cheaper, but not as reliable and these are just a few options, I found. Check the cartridge number I've seen series 2 and no 5. But whatever it is, they are there.

  • The Linux host, guest of WinXP, host has 2 network cards, how to choose which NETWORK adapter to use?

    I know it's something of an FAQ, but several hours spent on these forums and Google search gave me nothing of what works.

    All the solutions I've seen assume Windows as host and (something) as a guest.

    In my case, the host is Linux (CentOS 6.4) and invited is Windows XP.

    The host has two network cards, one on a 10.x.x.x network and the other on 192.168.x.x network.  In the guest virtual network adapter connects to the network 10.x.x.x.  I want it on 192.168.x.x network.

    I would be happy if I added another virtual network card and one of them connected to each network, but two of them connect to the 10.x.x.x network (with 10.x.x.x different IP numbers).

    The solutions I've seen indicate that under the Virtual Machine-> network adapter settings-> network connection, you click on the button "Configure the adapter" and load of come from there.  It would be great, but I have no button "Configure the adapter" or something like that.  I have a button "Advanced", but that just allows me traffic into and out of the butterfly and set a new MAC address, that's all.

    Because the host is Linux, I have also no equivalent to vmnetcfg.exe, at least none that I can find.

    So, where should I go from here?

    VMware Player is the version 6.0.0 (freshly upgraded 5.0.2 this afternoon).  I tried with version 5.0.2 and got the same thing.

    Thank you...

    You will need to use the virtual network Editor, although first you may need to create symbolic links.

    The first symbolic link already exist in a Terminal using the following command. Note: If connected a root the sudo command is not necessary when the.  Tip: Copy and paste the commands!

    ls-l/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-netcfg

    If it exists, the output should be similar to the following.

    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 29 Sep 08:17 / usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware - netcfg->/usr/lib/vmware/bin/appLoader

    At this point, you can simply use the following command to bring the virtual network Editor.

    sudo/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-netcfg

    However, if you want easier access creates a symbolic link in: / usr/bin

    sudo ln-s/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-netcfg/usr/bin/vmware-netcfg

    If the symbolic link/usr/bin/vmware-netcfg does not exist, then use the following command.

    sudo ln-s/usr/lib/vmware/bin/appLoader/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-netcfg

    Then, to facilitate access to create a symbolic link in: / usr/bin

    sudo ln-s/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-netcfg/usr/bin/vmware-netcfg

    To bring up the virtual network in a Terminal editor use the following command.

    sudo vmware-netcfg

    In the virtual network editor disable automatic bypass on vmnet0 by selecting the network map target in the bridge to: list box.

  • Satellite L350-171 - network printer installation

    I have problems to install my Canon Pixma IP4300 printer as a network printer. The printer is connected to a desktop PC, then a router, Dynamode R-ADSL-C4-2. This is connected to the laptop by a cable that was previously connected to my old laptop.

  • Cannot install network printer on Windows 7. Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver. All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions? How can I fix it?

    Cannot install network printer on Windows 7.  Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver.  All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions?  How can I fix it?
    Windows Server 2008 network.  Printers have ip addresses. Install the drivers from the Print Manager.  /Terminal Server Workgroup installation.

    It's the same situation with XP.  The print driver names must match.  If you notice the name of the printer driver that uses XP is a name different from the one that is installed when you plug in the device on the Windows 7 computer.  This is just my assumption, please correct me if this isn't the case.

    The real solution is to install a 32-bit driver on the XP machine that uses the same name that the 64-bit driver and share a printer using this driver or find a 64-bit driver that uses the same name as the 32-bit driver installed on XP and install the driver on XP.
