HP deskjet 1512: setting up wireless printer

I'm trying to connect my laptop (Dell Inspiron) wirelessly to my printer, but I have no idea what I'm doing. All the cords supplied with the printer are connected and the drive has been installed. It says that I need a USB cord (which I did not).

No problem at all. You can connect only whne required.

A USB connection to provide plug-and-play functionality.

  • LaserJet M1212nf: Problems setting up wireless printing

    I can set up to print from my laptop with a USB connection to the printer. I want to be able to print when away from my office, so have tried for 2 years, on and off, to get my printer to print wireless. I spent probably 10 + hours trying to get this set up. In the end, I always end up having to reinstall the printer with the same old USB connection.

    It drives me crazy. I'm a tech writer for a society of software and very savvy in computer science. However, my non-techie family have all managed to set up wireless printing at their home in 5 minutes or less with different brands of printers.

    Here are the steps that I followed, although I also tried many variations, like trying with my USB cable connected or disconnected.

    (1) uninstall the current installation of the printer (USB).

    (2) on the printer itself, make sure that the settings > network settings are the default values.

    (3) using the latest drivers and installation .exe from the HP site, start a new installation of the printer.

    (4) when you are prompted, select "wireless."

    RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and indicates that he is there any printer on the network. (Huh? Which network?)

    (5) try again once and this time select "Network Setup."

    RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and says that it cannot detect a network.

    If the wireless installation requires a network, but network installation does not cause a network to install, I don't know where to go from here.

    (6) I also tried downloading and installing the ePrint utility, but when I'm at halfway through the installation, it tells me that it cannot find my printer.

    I am suspicious that my model M1212nf MFP may even not allow for wireless printing. Some info on the HP site says to check a particular button lights up to indicate that the printer is online. This light does not exist on my printer model. However, the parameters of the printer from my physics has parameters such as: "show IP address," etc., which would lead me to believe that it can work wireless.

    I have read all the help related HP printer, and there is nothing which explains, in simple language, what are the types of cables, I need to set up a network and the Wi - Fi connection, when to plug them in, what facilities to perform on the many Add - ons available, etc.. I don't know that it's a 5 minute process if there was just a good explanation in the help of the UP of how do. Assistance would be appreciated!

    Hello @SKYdiz,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have had problems for the last 2 years and spent many hours trying to configure your HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf MFP for wireless printing. At this point I'll provide more information about it. First of all, are sitting you?

    Unfortunately, the HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf multifunction printer isn't a model wireless printer. The "nf" at the end of the name of the printer is the abbreviation of 'network, fax. Therefore, if your printer is not able to connect to your router wireless, it CAN connect with an ethernet cable.

    All you need to do is connect an ethernet cable to the back of your printer to your router. That all devices connected to this router even (whether through wireless or wired ethernet connections) would be able to 'see' your printer on the network and print it on your printer. For more information on configuring ethernet on your printer, please visit: Setup the printer to a wired network in Windows 7 for HP's LaserJet printers.

    Now, if an ethernet connection does not work in your specific network, HP makes other Laserjet models that do not use the wireless function. Here are two LaserJet who are black only, multifunction wireless units that resemble your current printer model: HP LaserJet MFP HP LaserJet MFP M225dw Pro and M127fw Pro.

    Please let me know if this clears up any confusion. If you have other questions or concerns, I'll be more than happy to help you. Happy new year!

  • set up wireless printer

    I run windows 7 & have home network set up. Ive been able to put my daughters laptop for wireless printing. (she has windows 7 too) but my son who has xp laptop will not connect to wireless printer?

    Is it because of the different system to the main computer (mine)? or have I missed something which is probably simple?

    I hope someone can help.

    Thank you

    Load you the software of the printer on the XP machine and choose Network Installation?

    Is there a firewall on your security system?  Disable it.

  • problem setting up wireless printer

    Original title: device

    I have some problem with usb cable and wireless printer setting
    I'm really not sure why or what to do
    It says to install a WSD printer device - don't know what it was but when tried to click on it - it would not set

    First, you will need the printer drivers to find the printer (wired or wireless) on any computer that you want to configure the printer on. You can get the printer drivers from the website of the manufacturer of your computer or a disk driver that came with your computer, when you bought it. Second, all of the computers you want to connect to the wireless printer should also have the software for the installed printer. Finally, before you can get a working wireless printer there need to work with a wired connection (this should all be covered in the manual.)

    See the manual for step by step installation. Visit manualowl.com or just see by the manufacturer. If you can't do that, I'm sure you can do the next step.

    Contact the manufacturer of your printer. They will guide you through the installation. They will have installation instructions ready. If you have no software to install, you will need to order it or download it via the manufacturer.

  • Ask serscan.sys file while setting up wireless printer

    Original title: lack file printer "sersan.sys".

    I want to marry my windows XP for the HY4500 wireless printer. The copouter is wireless, but the CD HP says a file is missing. Is it installed more than 90%, but when I was in the final stage (Plug and unplug printer then) it said 'missing file sersan.sys' and said to install my XP discs but do not have. Can someone send me this file?

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?
    2. how the printer is connected to the computer?
     
    This error message occurs generally when you install the printer on a network.
    When the printer asks the CD then I would suggest that you navigate to below the location by using the option of browser and check if it helps.
    C:\WINDOWS\Driver Cache\I386
     
    If the previous step fails, then you will need the Windows XP installation CD to go further or contact the printer manufacturer for assistance.

  • 2540: wireless printing: he says that he has but he does not!

    We have a new printer 2540 and I was setting for wireless printing. Installed on my Windows 7 laptop, no problem, even with the iPad to my wife. Also Windows 8 computer our daughter portable Compaq. Bloomin ' wonderful... Until we come to a Compaq laptop Windows 8 of my son. I installed the drivers, the same as on other devices.

    When I go to print the printer show online, the work is queued to the printer, then shows as deleted from the queue... but never actually, it prints on the printer.

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver (download the latest version from the support site) also installed Windows updates and uninstalled / reinstalled again. A lot of power off / power on laptop and printer...

    I thought that perhaps there was a communication problem, but discovered that I can scan an image from the control panel and save it on this laptop so there is communication. Don't just print!

    Anyone Lese seen elsewhere? Any ideas?

    Thanks, Dave

  • HP Deskjet 1512 - Page too small / Unknown Error

    I just bought HP Deskjet 1512 all-in-one printer. Installation went normally, however, I can't print anything Windows Vista 32-bit. Here are the various error messages that I get:

    "An unknown error has occurred" - FireFox

    "DΘmarrer can't feel" - WordPad

    "DΘmarrer can't feel" - MSPaint

    "Page too small to print a line" - the notebook

    Another oddity is that WordPad will display only a single letter per line. Microsoft Word displays not only any text whatsoever, not even of previously, working document. Any attempt to print from MS Word results in nothing happens, not even an error message. If I uninstall the printer and then Word, WordPad and all previous documents, poster correctly once more. Only when the printer is installed I see these quirks.

    I tried everything and nothing has solved the problem. I have uninstalled/reinstalled the disks and drivers online. I used the Print and Scan doctor says all right. Checked all cables, rebooted, reconnected, crossed the 50 of the obvious things to check. As far as I can tell everything works; ink, printer, scanner, copy, etc.. I have made copies and scanned with no problem. Test maintenance pages also print without problem. I suspect that the problem is the printer drivers for Vista. For some reason, it says page is too small, so clearly I have paper loaded into the machine and selected letter size in the main tray.

    Is there something that will fix this problem? I may need to return to this unit and back to Canon.

    Finally, I returned the printer for a refund. Thanks for trying RnRMusicMan

  • The HP DeskJet F4480 is set up for wireless printing?

    Hello

    When I bought my F4480, I thought it was a wireless printer.  I currently have a desktop Mac Power PC G4 running Tiger (10.4.11) and a computer laptop windows XP Pro running. The printer is connected via USB to a Mac, and I tried to set up printing wireless on the laptop. After several hours of trying, googling and looking for the manual, I finally decided to post here.

    Question 1 can we do? (if the answer is no, then "thank you" and I'll be on my way...)

    Question 2 in the affirmative and who have already installed the necessary drivers on my laptop, what is the next step?

    Sorry to be such a fool. Thanks in advance.

    Series F4400 (including your part done F4480) has USB connectivity only.  The series F4500 has USB and wireless.

    But, with the printer connected to your Mac, you can share printing works (but not scan) between the computers on your network.  To do this download and install Hello for Windows for your XP from here.  If your XP already has a version of Hello (installed by iTunes), uninstall before installing this version.

    Run it and it will find the printer connected to your Mac.  Make sure that your Mac is enabled and that it is set to never sleep (System Preferences > energy saver).

  • HP Deskjet 3050 has J611 series watch in trouble with wireless printing

    Hey there,

    I have just a series of combat a HP Deskjet 3050 printer a J611 and wireless printing to work perfectly. However, for the last week or so is no more.

    The printer is connected to the network, as the result of the wireless network test is proven and it is the same network that the laptop is connected to. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the software. The wireless light is on and I can see the signal strength and the IP address. However, it still works.

    I also I sent an email to the printer to see if it worked. Initially, I received an automated email saying my printer is not connected to the internet and then printing will be delayed. I didn't touch the printer after that, but about 6 hours later it started to print.
    I also tried to connect the printer with a USB key and configure settings wireless via USB does not work either. The computer cannot find a printer connected to the network. There is no firewall blocking the application or the printer.

    My settings:

    Router broadband wireless ADSL2 + -.
    Huawei EchoLife HG521
    TalkTalk
    Laptop - Medion Akoya E7214
    32-bit operating system
    Windows 7 Home Premium

    Help with this would be much appreciated! Thank you!

    Larissa

    I doubt disturbed the other printer.  Kaspersky can be a problem, but we're going to explore other things first.

    We will set an IP address of the printer:

    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    -Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS.
    -Click 'apply '.

    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that, you will have to redo 'Add printer' using the new IP address.

  • DeskJet impossible 3070 wireless printing scanning or eprint

    Hello, I'm a Mac OS 10.7 with a Deskjet 3070 b611 series [7CB640].

    I am using CABLE and

    Encryption WPA2 Personal

    I feel wireless and scanning previously, that a month or two ago I got a new router, with a SSID being different to the previous one.  I'm now trying to get printing to work with the new router.    CISCO - modem/wireless router, DPQ3925

    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times.  I can print the Wi - Fi connection test and it looks good, I can print the network configuration page and it seems fine.

    When I print from my PC it it just hangs there saying 'connecting to the printer' but never actually print anything either or ends.

    "When I press the 'eprint' and he tries to set up the automatic update, I get a message that says" the printer could not connect to the internet.  I also have problems with scanning - doesn't work at all, but as fate would be the first impression if you can help I would be very grateful.  I've been playing with this for almost two days now.

    I tried a lot of things I found in the forum, when I type the ip address of the printer in the browser, it cannot connect to it.  192.168.2.245 so I can't go this way of solution for the problem of eprint.

    I have also completed the steps in the post on APple mac printing problems debugging, nothing helps.

    concerning

    Hi AJHHP,

    I'm sorry to hear that you ran difficulties printing to your Deskjet 3070 since installing a new modem/router.

    I've included a link to the HP wireless printing Center.  I went to the section about "replacement of your wireless router. It gives you the steps to follow when you change your router.

  • HP Deskjet 2540: Wireless printing problems with HP Deskjet 2540

    Hi all

    I have a problem with a printer HP Deskjet 2540 - it prints if I connected a USB cable; However, he refuses to print if I try to print wireless.

    I had initially solved this problem when I went into system preferences > printers and Scanners and noticed two 2540 Deskjet series icons in a window titled 'Printers '. I ended up removing one of these icons and set it as a default, which temporarily seems to solve my problem. Now, I see two icons back in the "Printers" menu and my printer refuses to print over my wireless connection.

    My printer is connected to my internet connection so I don't think there is a problem here - I also recently installed the software for this printer to make sure it wasn't some kind of driver issue; However, it doesn't give me the permanent solution, that I'm looking.

    Any advice? My operating system is OS X Version 10.9.5
