HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel

My HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel.  How to fix it.  I have a laptop Toshiba and Windows 7 Home Premium OS.  Help, please.    rwillm

Hey,.

Thanks for the update, rwillm.  It seems that the installation of the printer can be a little messed up.  If the printer software is always installed, but simply lacks the printer, then I would advise to do a little cleaning before choosing to add the printer back.

  • Make sure that the printer is deleted from the file devices and printers
  • Click on one of the remaining printers folder
  • Select the properties of the print server at the top of the window
  • Click the tab drivers
  • Remove all drivers in this window for the Officejet 4500

Also check in the Device Manager to verify that there is no mention of remaining of the 4500.

  • Click on the start menu
  • Right click on computer
  • Select manage in the list
  • Click Device Manager in the list of questions on the left side of the window that opens
  • Click the view at the top of the menu, and then select Show hidden devices
  • Remove all references to the 4500 in the list of devices

After making sure of the device is gone, I recommend bike devices in the power circuit: router, computer and printer.

* Make sure the printer has a valid IP address after switching back on and is connected to the same network as your PC before adding the printer.

If the IP address and SSID are good for the printer, then try to add the printer with the printer software, you have installed.

  • Click on the Start Menu
  • Click on all programs
  • Open the HP folder
  • Open the folder for the series of the Officejet 4500 G510
  • Select Add a device option

Let me know how it goes,

Jason

    I try to use my bluetooth headset.  It is paired with success and it seems in the window bluetooth devices.  However, it will not work.  I looked in the sound control panel and the helmet does not appear.  This use to work, but stopped.  How do I add the bluetooth headset icon in the sound control panel so I can choose it as audio device by default?  I uninstalled and reinstalled the device several times.  I also have a bluetooth mouse and it works fine.  There is no other bluetooth devices.  I use Windows 7.

    I suggest you to update the driver for your Bluetooth device.

    Method 1:

    I suggest you go through the steps and check:

    (a) Control Panel

    (b) sound > manage Audio devices

    (a) click the Start button

    (b) type 'Change sound card settings' or ' manage audio devices'.

    Set Default has two options: Default Communication device that manages all communications like the calls or videoconferencing on IM or VOIP, and default device that manages all the output is without the communication part.

    To choose the device that should be the default value for the communication and device that should make the rest of the book,

    Method 3:

    (a) click on the small arrow button set as default.

    (b) If you click it, the arrow will show you both options.

    (c) Select the communications device.

    (d) click on set as default -> default Communication device.

    (e) select the device for all other types of reading and

    f) click set default-> default device

    (g) If you want the device of Communication by default and the default unit will be defined on the same audio device just click on the button set by default instead.

  • Hello printer does not appear in the list of IOS Printer Options

    I have a home network with a router of Time Capsule.

    I connected my Cannon MX920 wireless network.

    The printer worked very well for my MacBook Air, my iMac, my Windows laptop, 10, my iPad and my iPhone.

    There are no known pending software updates to devices.

    I connected my HP OfficeJet 6500 (E709a) for the MacBook Air via USB and it works very well.

    I installed on the portable Windows 10 Hello and I can print to the printer OfficeJet @ MacBook Air laptop Windows 10 and the iMac (and of course the MacBook Air) very well.

    In Safari / Bookmarks / Hello on the MacBook Air, ONLY the Cannon printer is listed.  The OfficeJet directly attached via the USB port does NOT appear.

    My QUESTION is how can I make the printer OfficeJet @ MacBook Air appears as option in the printer Options / recent printers of dialogue so I can print to it from my IOS devices?

    This seems to be a pretty simple configuration problem, and I don't see the need to spent $ 20 on the App Store to make it work.  I see some comments along the lines of this problem, but the solutions are quite difficult to follow and seem to depend on having the printer appear in Safari / Bookmarks / Bonjour list.

    I'll appreciate any solution (or explanation as to why it isn't a).

    Hello DevGuy,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how useful it can be to have all your devices on the network with a central printer, and I'd like to help offer a glimpse into what could prevent your of you using to print to your HP 6500 iOS devices.

    In order to print from a device iOS, the printer must be connected to the same Wi - Fi network and supports the Air Print feature. After some research, it seems that the 6500 HP does not support this feature directly. You may be able to find a solution based on HP in the App Store app, but this printer does not have Air Print capacity based on support documentation, that I could find at HP.

    For more information about known printing of Air and a list of compatible printers, have look at this article: About AirPrint

    If you have any other questions, please help again. The entire community is here to help.

  • HP OFFICEJET 6700: WIRELESS PRINTER DOES NOT

    Recently obtained the new Internet provider and added Netgear Wireless Router NIghthawk. Printer wireless connected to it and seems to do very well for the first day, now when I try to print the computer wants to save or fax the document. Print by using CTRL - SHIFT-P, but would rather just press on print. Check the properties of the printer and it was the right default printer. For troubleshooting all he's trying to do is load a driver and still it fails.

    Hello llp54,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you have problems when you try to print using a wireless connection with a new router.

    I suggest try out us and reset the default settings of network on the printer and then try to reconnect to the new router.

    To reset the default settings of the printer network, we will do it from the front panel of the printer.  Go to the configuration menu and from there you will scroll in the network menu.  Scroll down the page until you see network by default and press OK to do the restore.

    Once the restoration is complete, return the network menu and run the Wireless Setup Wizard.

    Let me know how make you out.

    Thanks for your time.

    See you soon,.

  • My new printer does not appear in the list of printers

    I bought a new HP Officejet Pro 8715 and I had great difficulty it is set up to use. It seems the method to print and scan drivers has changed dramatically since my last new printer. HP supplies over a CD with the software, but rather is supposed to happen automatically via the Apple software when I plug in the printer. This was not the case.

    At this point, I have the printer (4 hours) work, but I can't get the software "Readiris' of scanning to work. Yet once again, I am told that if I just plug the printer via the USB port and turn it on, then the OS knows what software to load. In reality, he doesn't "know" or "do" something.

    I tried to configure manually by going to System Preferences > Print & Scan and then by clicking on the sign more to add the printer software. This will show you a huge list of printers, but the list ends with "Officejet Pro 8660." My printer is a 8715, so there is nothing for my printer. Installation of the software for 8660 did not help to solve the problem.

    Two questions:

    1. why list of Apple printers does not have my printer?

    2. How can I get the Apple software to see the drivers for my printer?

    Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

    1. If the printer is a new model and HP did not provide Apple with the driver software, Apple would not list.

    2. go to the HP site to find and download the driver software.
