Mac can not find network Officejet 6500

Hello

I have a Macbook Pro with Mac OS X 10.7.2

Until some time ago, our HP Officejet 6500 has printing and scanning wireless without problem. Then when I went to print something the other day, the printer was no longer seen by the Mac.

I wiped the network settings on the printer and re plugged on my network. The print Network Setup page indicates that the printer is connected to the wireless network. The mac is still the printer much. Open a browser and try to connect to the printer using its IP address do not work either - the browser connects.

Does anyone have an idea as to what's going wrong? I downloaded the latest drivers from HP. The printer still works when it is connected with a USB cable, it's just apparently not visible on the network.

Thank you!

OK, BT Homehubs are known to have problems with HP printers.  You can search these forums and find many cases.

Try restarting the Homehub by pulling its plug momentarily.  What is fix?

You might consider another router or an extra router.

    Last night, after that my computer could not connect to the printer, a problem generally solved by all simply restart the printer or restart my computer, I followed HP troubleshooting advice and remove the printer. Now, I am unable to find the printer my device list.

    I have connected the printer via USB to begin the installation, and then go through the steps to connect to my network and then unplug the USB connection when prompted. The HP setup assistant immediately told me that it can't find the device.

    Print to network printer shows no problem.

    I turned the radio on and outside wireless.

    I have reset the printer default network settings.

    I turned off the printer, and it was stopped for a while.

    I restarted my iMac.

    I checked for the update firmware on my router (Cisco/Linksys E2000) - there is none.

    I checked for the update of the firmware/software for HP drivers - there are not.

    I'm at a loss total and VERY frustrated.

    Everyone tells me to go buy a brother. Despite having bought just 4 cartridges of replacement, I can do exactly this.

    Unplug the USB cable from the printer (it was one of the problems - be connected during the installation tells the Setup program you want a USB connection).

    We'll start again.

    -Restart your router by pulling its plug momentarily

    -With the cable USB out, on the front of the printer: configuration > network > network by default.

    -Now, in the same network menu, run the Wireless Setup Wizard.

    Then download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907

    Restart your Mac.

    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 then beside the dropdown 'Use', select the model of the printer (not AirPrint). Wait for the 'Add' button becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • XPS M1330 can not find network card after reinstalling Windows Vista

    Hi all

    I'm passing my computer to a member of his family and wanted to give them a new installation, so I used the disc of Windows Vista (32-bit SP1) shipped with the laptop and reinstalled Vista on the computer. Everything worked fine until I wanted to connect to the internet, then Windows tells that there are no available networks. When I chose "Why doesn't windows find all networks" he stated that "this computer doesn't have a wireless network installed and configured card". I put in the Dell driver and Utilities CD that shipped with the computer and installed the drivers which seemed related to networking or communications, but the problem persists. I guess it's some sort of driver problem (as the computer used wireless before the reformat (a few hours ago) and so the device itself seems to work.)

    I would greatly appreciate any help to get this race. :)

    Thank you!

    Hi Chris,

    Please share the system model and the operating system installed on your computer?

    If you are facing problems with the wireless, you can follow the steps below to check if the drivers are listed as installed in the Device Manager:

    • Press 'Windows' + 'R' key on keyboard.
    • Type "devmgmt.msc" into the box run without quotes.
    • In the Device Manager window, expand network adapters and verify if your wireless card is on the list.

    If the wireless driver is not present in the system and is displayed as a network controller in the section other devices with a yellow question mark, you can download the drivers from the link: http://dell.to/QjjZDA -> Enter-> the serial number of your system, select the operating system-> expand the category network to download/install wireless drivers

    I hope this helps. Please respond to the findings.

  • old mac can not find the new mac for migration

    I'm trying to set up my iMac brand new El Capitan and any transfer of my old iMac OS x 10.6.8. The new Mac is former easily, by using Migration Research Assistant on two computers, but the old guard. Then another told me that the former, whom he knows, the name is not available. I use WiFi, lack of time, lightning or FireWire (?) whatever they may be. I could loose the ethernet to our wifi modem, if that works better, I have a Gdrive mini backup and which might be easier still.

    There is another identical question, starting in 2014, on the forums, but the answer is not relevant - I do not have a screen asking you to transfer when I started up the new iMac. (I also managed to get a screen insist on a Keychain password and it would not accept the password I put in place initially at first startup.) What is going on? I've never struggled with any one of our Macs back to 83 like this!)

    Thanks a lot for all the bright ideas!

  • Vista Home Premium can not find applications and networks.

    Vista Home Premium (manuf. installed) can not find applications (application to go to define associations in control panels?), does not recognize my wireless network and available restore points are only for dates after the problem has occurred.  If I buy a Home Premium DVD and do a clean install should I expect to get a working computer?

    Hello

    You mean reinstall the OS completely? If you have Vista DVD you can do however make sure to
    totally your data off the drive of backup, and you need to reinstall your programs. If you do not
    Disks of Vista, you can buy them in your machine to cheap system. If you don't care about existing programs
    Then you can make a complete new installation - just select the format options that erases the entire disc (this
    Clears all data as well).

    Some system manufacturers use Partitions recovery and other methods to allow you to go back to a
    completely new facility. So check with your system manufacturer to see what options you must do
    - and it's certainly doable - just a question of the process the manufacturer of the system set in place to
    you.

  • HP Photosmart C309a AiO Wireless on and work, can not find the network!

    My printer has stopped printing a couple of days.  It was fine, now it is not.  The blue light wireless radio is turned on, but when I run the network set in place, it works simply and can not find my network.  I ran the network diagnostic and it detects my network, but can't find my printer.  On the test page, it fails on SSID.  I could use some help to get this operational back guys!  Thank you!

    Well, I can't comment officially, but I'm sure that has been discussed in, and design changes avoid this problem.

    Regarding something is through HP, you could call the HP Technical Support and check if you have options to upgrade to a new printer. They should have a list of printers and prices offered as part of the upgrade process. There is no charge to call and check the options you have. If you are in the United States, call the 1-800-474-6836. Otherwise, click on the contact HP link at the top of this page.

  • My laptop can not find wireless networks

    My laptop can not find wireless connections, that it works fine when I use an Ethernet cable.

    It works on 64-bit windows and has a intel wifi link 1000 series

    The most likely reason is that the wireless card is turned off or disabled.  Most laptops have this feature in order to save battery power if the wifi is not necessary.  Depending on your laptop, it is a physical switch or a combination of the Fn key and one of the F keys.  See your User Guide for more information.

    You can also check the Device Manager (click the ORB start and type Device Manager and then press the Enter key).  Expand the "Network adapters" section by clicking on the arrow to the left and then double-click the entry for the Intel Wifi Link.  Check 'Device status' in the 'General tab '.

  • Updated to Windows 8... now can not find wireless network

    I've updated from windows vista to windows 8. Everything went well, but now the computer can not find wifi connection while it worked before the upgrade. Any ideas what's past? Or what I can do to find l ' internet and connect?

    Thank you.

    This 'upgrade' is really not much more than a NEW installation of the operating system.

    Did you visit the manufacturer's web page a computer for your computer model - more precisely their downloads and drivers for your system model - the article and enter all drivers of Windows 8/8.1 available to them for your if everything goes well supported by said manufacturer under Windows 8/8.1 computer system?  (This is a manual process.  Microsoft/Windows doesn't make or can't stand most (if any) of the hardware components inside your computer.  You must obtain and install these drivers yourself.
