• Photosmart C4380 - wireless connection stops my wi fi connection

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Photosmart C4380 wireless. In recent weeks, I have a new router from fi wi for internet connection. The problem starts if I want to print a document: if I connect to the printer my Internet stops. In addition, if the document to print is a picture it is all purple but I don't know if it's a question of color or if it is because the problem of connection. When I put the memory card directly into the printer, I could see a picture printed even if had still some purple color in it.

  Anyway, my first problem to resolve is the connection problem. How can I make two connections (PC to the printer) and PC to the router work together?

  -Operating system: Vista Edition Home Premium - Service pack 2

  -Wireless (PC to the printer) and PC to the router

  -Do not get the error message. Just to lose internet connection

  I hope you can help me because I don't really know what to do.

  Thank you in advance,

  Good bye

  You said you have a connection Printer to PC and PC to Router. That is not how this printer should be connected. There are two types of home network connectivity No.1 Wired network is ethernet cable from printer to router. You should also have an ethernet connection from the router to the pc. In this type of connection the router is called the access point which enables communication wireless from a wireless capable device like a Laptop. The printer is now on a wired network No.2 Then there is purely wireless - no wires involved. By the way, a USB connection is not a wired connection. USB is independant and has nothing to do with home networking. As far as I know, this printer uses a usb cable for wireless installation only. While installing the printer select wireless and continue. The printer will not be found, click continue and you should be prompted to temporarily connect a USB cable. When device discovery is complete you will be prompted to remove the USB cable. Then the installation will test the wireless connection and that should complete the installation. I would suggest a complete uninstall using level 3 uninstall found on cd or download files Util\CCC\uninstall L_3, Do Not use L_4. This doc c01122127 found at HP.com has a video showing screen shots during the install process I have described above.
  

  Good Luck
  

• Problems with HP Photosmart C4380 wireless via a router from Cisco RV120W

  We recently purchased a Cisco RV120W wireless router and now we can´t connect our wireless Photosmart C4380 printer.

  During the installation process, we get the message: "the can´t computer communicate with the printer on 192.168.0.216. It can be caused by firewallproblems. Check that the 427 UDP port are not blocked in and out of traffic"(translated from Danish).

  If I remove the USB cable and try again, the installation continues and Announces: 'printer found – connected to the LAN' - but in the end: "Printer installation is not complete" - aurgh!

  The report-network printer looks OK all the way.

  Can someone help us we are frustrated.

  Greetings Jens Ove and Helge

  Sorry, but I'm not familiar with this device.  However, I would search in the areas of networks, VPN and security.

  You want to be sure of not having active VPN and also look for implementing isolation.

• Pomp A60-106: how to print wireless using HP Photosmart C4380

  Good afternoon

  I confess that I am no expert PC but have spent 4 hours this afternoon trying to follow all the help and support options to turn on my laptop to print wireless using my new HP Photosmart C4380.

  Wireless network adapter appears under control panel, but I can't get the light to come on the front by FN and F8, of the any or others 101 things I tried thorugh etc. Device Manager - I'm sure that there is an easy way, but I can't find it and lose the heart! Can someone offer me some ideas?

  If so please have them step by step so I can make sure I don't miss anything.

  Thank you in anticipation of your ideas...

  Rachel

  Hello

  I'm sorry if this seems a silly question but first:

  Are you REALLY sure have a wireless card installed?

  And the second question:

  Do you have already turned the switch on "ON"?

  Because otherwise, the light will NEVER go up.

  Please give feedback if you tried to change the pit wireless switch 'ON '.

• HP Photosmart C4380 [8A36CB] communication error with MacBook OS 10.7.5 more wireless

  Hello

  I get the message 'communication error' when I try to print wireless at a Photosmart C4380 of my MacBook (OS 10.7.5) through a Router 2 GB TimeCapsule.

  The message also says: "/ usr/libexec/cups/backend/dnssd failed ', but I don't know what to do with...

  I tried to de - and re - install, reboot the laptop, printer and router and pull all the plugs in different sequences, first use the USB cable to install wireless and any other help HP... but nothing seems to work (doctor of HP is not available for Mac).

  The weird part is that:

  1. He started a couple of weeks, without having changed anything (to my knowledge),

  2. printing of my iMac works fine (same network, same software, same settings version, etc.)!

  2. printing via the USB port on my MacBook works fine

  3. can I print a test page form "Utility from HP" my MacBook (and of course my iMac but it works very well even when)

  4. I can access the printer through "http://hp8a36cb.local./index.htm?cat=info&page=printerInfo" and there is just no problem not mentioned whether,

  5. the "Configuration Page of HP network' and the 'wireless network Test report' congratulating me for the installation of my printer wireless... but it doesn't work.

  I read almost all messages on communication errors more wireless but that you have not found an answer to my question (yet).

  Is there anyone with a solution? Please?

• My photosmart printer c410 works except that the wireless light flashes.

  my wireless light blinks on my photosmart c410, although the printer works.  can someone point me in the right direction to solve this problem?

  Oh, had.  Flashing means that it is not connected to your network.

  On the front of the printer: Setup > Wirless > Restore Defaults.  In the same menu, run the Wireless Setup Wizard.

  You will have to perhaps remove and re-add the printer on your computer after that.

• Printer HP Photosmart C390a - wireless radio does not

  I need help with my HP C390a Photosmart Premium all-in-one printer. Suddenly, the other day he lost, it's a wireless connectivity and I have tried everything I can think of to get it to work - printing and Scan doctor, uninstall the printer and reinsert (2 or 3 times), re-starting the PC, the modem-router and the printer etc several times and nothing works. The printer will print when connected by USB but I have run the wireless network Test and it shows that the "Wireless is WE ', but the ' Wireless works is to FAIL. This explains why I can't get the Wireless Setup Wizard to work. She is saying that he is now "looking for wireless routers", but just keeps looking forever until I have cancel it. Also the small wireless icon which was on the home screen of the printer in the top middle (next to the bluetooth icon) has disappeared. Although mysteriously, small blue wireless light on the far right of the keyboard printer stays on. In any case, I really like this printer but I need a wireless, wired not only, so I would appreciate any help I could get with this problem.

  Oh, I forgot to tell you, I also can I made things worse by selecting two default settings of the printer (when nothing else worked), they were: 'Restore the default network settings' and under Tools "restore default settings".

  Here's the rest of the details on my PC-

  I have a hp Pavilion dv6 - 2057cl computer laptop running Windows 7. Our internet provider is Bright House and we have a cable/modem that works well with this printer for the last 3 months.

  As I said, any help will be appreciated.

  Thank you.

• HP Photosmart C4380 is not scanning

  My iMac screen running OS 10.6.8 and connected to a HP Photosmart C4380 has always printed reliably of keyboard commands. Scan never works, either the computer or directly to the all-in-one device. C4380 window then displays the error message "USB or wireless not connected" when it obviously is! My HP software update reports that I am up to date.

  I saw a previous response that said that 10.6 is incompatible with the scanning. Is it still the explanation, or is it now a workaround solution. Help, please

  Ionizer 76

  No, your Mac must print and scan with a C4380 without any problem.

  However, if you are using Snow Leopard or Lion and you have the HP software before Snow Leopard (either from a CD that is not marked as compatible with 10.6/7 or you recently upgraded to Snow Leopard or Lion and had the software HP on your Mac before you upgrade - even if you made a standard from the old software uninstaller or installed new software on top of it) , you must uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

  Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
  Click on continue
  Highlight your device in the left pane
  Press and hold Ctrl + Alt + Cmd keys on the keyboard at the same time as you click on uninstall< this="" is="" the="" scrubber="" option,="" there="" is="" no="" button="" labeled="">
  There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
  Click on continue and let it finish

  Restart your Mac

  Download and install this: support.apple.com/kb/DL907

  Finally, restore the print system:

  -Go to System Preferences > print & Scan
  -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
  WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
  -Select the sign more to add a printer. Select the default tab on the top of the window. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

• C4380 wireless printing does not work

  Please help, I have spent hours on it does not.

  until recently, under snow leopard, I had no probs printing c4380 wirelessly.

  While my sisters, I tried to print something out on his printer and its drivers installed. Then, I deleted these drivers.

  I could still print wireless, but suddenly it has stopped working. I tried most of the things, I uninstalled and installed the software again.

  passes the test (on the printer) the printer wireless network, but when I print I get a message saying that it does not connect. I can print when connected via USB. I seem to sometimes added... to get two versions of usb hp printer photosmart c4380 and the other something like photosmart c4380 [22437].

  I cannot open the Web page in-house printers and don't know how to get around this problem. When you open the printer utility, it will do via USB, but not wireless.

  on the HP configuration utility, most of the time it says no wifi network have been discovered. He always correctly will allow me to enter the SSID and WPA WEK key and will link this way but still not printing. Sometimes, if I have two photosmart printers and f22437 as active printer (the f22437 indicates a network address in the Setup utility), but if I then select usb connected that he'll show my wifi network in the detectable window of the Setup utility. so I connect, but still it says unable to connect when I actually try and print.

  IM using a time capsule and wonder if the problem with that. the other day, he made up a window saying there was a problem with him and has the mac address this problem, which he seems to have done.

  help before I go crazy!

  OK... phew.

  all restarted. MacBook. router. modem. Time capsule.

  wireless printing now works again!

  Phew. and to think im sitting here alone to try to solve this problem in Switzerland where I live for six hours and her 02:35.

  in any case, Bravo to you chaps for your great suggestions.

• HP Photosmart C4380 stopped scanning

  I have my Photosmart c4380 connected wireless to my iMac (under snow leopard). The last time I tried to scan controls on the printer, I got a message "USB or wireless not connected".  I am able to print wireless from my computers and I use to be able to scan the controls on the printer, but no more. Probably not incidentally, Device Manager did something unusual - display a dialog box that talks about printer cartridge. (I ignored him, closed, etc. & has not paid no attention until now that I can't scan.) Probably related. I tried scanning also form HP Device Manager, but get a message "unknown error."  Also, a message was generated to send it to Apple.  I'm a tech fool but I managed to set up twice! Was not so difficult I have well - but... yuck, I need to make it work!

  In fact, let's check something.  It turns out that scanning from the printer control panel does not work with 10.6.

  However, you can scan using the Image Capture (in your Applications folder)?

• My pavilion dv2418nr wireless light stays orange

  My pavilion dv2418nr wireless light stays orange, you don't go to the Blue will not recognize the connections surrounding neighborhood.  ISP says that the router is fine, this is the switch of the laptop not allowing the card read wireless connections. HP tech told me plug Ethernet from the router to the laptop... I got on the internet very well... but it isn't a hard connect.  Anyone had this problem with their switch?  I think that until this little light turns blue, I have better luck.  Thanks for your help

• Photosmart 6520: Wireless does not work for HP Photosmart 6520 on 5G, but works on 2.4

  my all-in-one photosmart 6520 connects wireless network 2.4, but does not recognize nor can I manually get to recognize the 5 G wireless. I have 2.4 to print. This printer not 5 G is compatible? or is there a way to force it to recognize and work with 5G?

  The Photosmart 6520 wireless works on 2.4 GHz channels, it does not support 5 GHz. If your router supports both it should be possible to set up to allow communication between the computer on the 5 GHz access point and the printer on the 2.4 GHz band.
