• Can I connect a printer to ann existing adhoc WLAN?

  I have two Macs connected via a WLAN adhoc. Now, I want to connect a printer. I tried, but failed.

  According to the information of the printer company that should indeed not possible. Now I have 2 questions:

  Is • this information correct?

  Can • I install a second WLAN; and if so, where can I find advice how to set this second WLAN (steps to move forward)?

  Hans

  There are two types of Wifi network, the Infrastructure being the other type and ad hoc, you are referring to. While it is possible to connect two computers together in an ad-hoc Wifi type looks like the printer works with a type of Wireless Network Infrastructure. A Network Infrastructure needs to a central controller for example a WiFi base station.

  If both Macs have only Wifi connections and no Ethernet connection, it is possible to link them together in an ad-hoc configuration, it seems that in order to get one of the Mac to act as a controller that is operating in Infrastructure mode, I think that you need to be connected to a network via Ethernet, can be configured to 'share' this Ethernet to Wifi connection. Even in this case it is not certain that a Wifi printer will accept this as it is still a very stripped down Wifi configuration.

  If you had not a hardware base station Wifi for example an Apple Airport Express, which would certainly be able to do the work for you.

  Another approach to consider connects to the printer via USB to one of the Mac and then share the printer from the Mac. The second Mac would then be able to print to the printer via the Mac. It should work even with the two Mac computers via an installer of the adhoc Wifi.

• has obtained a new wireless network and I can not connect the printer to it.

  I have a photosmart c4780 wireless.  Got a new Airport Express Wireless yesterday.  It is connected to my MacBook Pro without problem, but I can't get the printer to connect to it.

  I have a MacBook Pro, OS v. 10.6.  My HP Photosmart C4780 worked perfectly on my old system wireless (Apple product).  Yesterday I bought a new wireless Airport Express and I can't get the printer to recognize the new system.  Where it shows the name of the printer in the system, the box below (called location) is empty.  I tried to put the name of my Airport in it, but no luck.  I know it just needs to be connected internally somehow, but can't find where the information goes.  I don't have a USB port.  The printer is connected to a modem, and the modem is connected to the radio (is this is what is called the router?) Airport Express - just like it was yesterday when he was working with my old wireless.

• Pavilion s5710f: How can I connect my model s5710f from desktop to my Wi - Fi?

  How can I connect to my Wi - Fi?  The only internet option to choose in the installer is broadband.  Thank you.

  Hello:

  Here is the link to the page of product for your PC specifications.

  http://h22207.www2.HP.com/us-en/document/c02627981

  It does not come with wireless networking capabilities, or this feature should have been included as well as the 10 Base T wired network specification.

  The best thing to do to give your PC wireless networking capabilities would be to install an external usb wireless network adapter.

  It's the one I use on two of my HP desktop PC.  It works with several OSes including Windows 10.

  I guess that you have a connection broadband (cable or DSL) and a wireless router.

• HP ENVY 7640e: can I connect the printer with a USB cable in addition to the Wi - Fi

  I just bought this printer and succeeded in setting up wireless.  Can I now connect it using a USB cable?  If the answer is 'YES', just make the USB connection, i.e. will be 10 Windows automatically adds the printer, or do I have to re - run the setup software and select the USB option?

  I would like to have the possibility of having the two configurations available for me to pick, i.e. be able to select the wireless printer or USB printers.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The answer is Yes, you can connect USB and wireless. 10 Windows can install a generic driver for you to print but envy 7640 has many features, so you must install drivers to allow you to print and scan locally using USB and printer software.

  You need to connect to wireless internet to be able to use its full functionality.

  Kind regards.
