MacBook can not access 1300 HP connected to my local network, help?

I have a HP LaserJet 1300 connected via a USB hub to a Macintosh G5 tower which is connected by Ethernet to my Telus Optik V1000H Actiontec modem/router. I read (I think on this forum) that some people have kept the modem Gateway 2 son they used before the upgrade of their service internet of Telus Optik and plugged into the router/modem Actiontec V1000H because he has better wireless capabilities. I did too, but now I don't know what modem/router my MacBook can access my network through now (if this is important).

My new MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.2 accessing my wireless network but cannot access the HP LaserJet 1300. I downloaded and installed the v.2.11 driver of HP on the new MacBook, but when I try to set up the HP LaserJet 1300, I get the error message "Unable to download the software from the server at this time." The MacBook doesn't seem to know that I have already installed the printer driver v.2.11 on it.

I tried to provide much information as possible here, but the line the bottom is I realized that my new MacBook Pro would be able to print to my HP LaserJet 1300 while the printer is connected to my network... but it can't. Can someone help me? I can't really afford a new printer.

BTW - after reading some of the messages, I realize I can't have fax capability via my network, but is not serious. I've never used fax anyway.

I'd appreciate it if someone could help me with some advice or point me to another conversation that could help me. Thank you!

Hi, I am answering my own question so I can mark it as resolved. I continued to read and try different things, and finally (kind of by chance) I solved my problem. I'm not entirely sure how I did it, but I'll try to explain in case someone else is having similar problems.

I downloaded the driver for printer HP 1300 (v.2.11) manually at least twice. I got it on the MacBook Pro, but the computer doesn't seem to be able to access it when I had not the 1300 HP directly connected via USB. It was confusing to me, especially when all the literature said to do a software update, if I was in trouble by doing the work of the printer.

When I went to my printer preferences and tried to set up the HP 1300 with the printer not connected not directly to the MacBook Pro, it came as a printer, but I got a message saying that I couldn't download the software needed at this time there. I left this printer icon on my list of printers. (I knew that I already had the software but couldn't get the printer preferences to realize it is there).

Then, I connected the HP 1300 directly on the MacBook via USB and the process repeated. This time a HP LaserJet 1300 @ my network was created in my list of printer and print driver was on the MacBook Pro. I chose the HP LaserJet 1300 @ my network version as my default printer. I have connected the printer to my network and was able to print wireless from the MacBook.

I'll just let the other HP LaserJet 1300 icon on my list of printers in the case removing a problem. I don't know if I need it or not.

Sorry if my explanation is poor. It would be a miracle if it helped anyone. I'm not very good in this stuff. I got lucky!

  • Computer shows as connected... but we can not access the internet.

    Original title: but alas... internet no.

    Recently, we had this problem where our shows as connected pc... but we can not access the internet.  What I've been able to solve, is that somehow my IP settings change.

    I'm going to "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically", but of course... when the problem occurs again I find that my "Obtain DNS server automatically an address" has been changed to "use the following DNS server address".

    What is causing my computer to change my settings?

    I think you're DIY too.  Normally, your computer and your wireless router assign dynamic IP addresses, and they change periodically - that is part of the security design.

    In your case, the DNS server is the router.

    Most of the time what you describe is your computer is able to find a wireless router but the router doesn't send an IP (its normal function).

    This is usually:

    1. Your Internet service provider is down or your connection to it is broken.  If this is the case there is nothing you can do about it.
    2. Your computer network security key does not match the one in the router.

    1 reset the modem & router.  Follow these instructions precisely: http://canadiantech.info/?page_id=136

    2. If that does not resolve the problem, you must remove this network from your list of networks to manage Windows 7.  Then try to connect again using the network key, you know.

    3. If this does not work, you will need to do a factory reset on the router and re - install the router according to the router set up instructions.

    4. If after all the above does not correct the problem, you must replace your router.

    I have a iMac Core 2 Duo (3.33, 21.5 inches) since end 2009, running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard and I'm trying to recover some files that seem to be there, but I can not access it due to an update of the unfinished software.

    A few years back, I tried the Mavericks update using an external hard drive as the boot drive (at that time there I ran 10.6.7 Lion), installation is never ending and I accidentally deleted this file to start on the outside, so I ended up coming back to his moose BONE, 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.

    He seems to resemble a new install of Snow Leopard, except my old files (about 350 GB) still live on this subject, but I can not access all of the files, or does not even appear in the Finder.

    Would appreciate any advice or tips on how to do to recover my invisible files. Thank you!

    Do you see the drive in disk utility?

    1. Connect the external drive
    2. If it has external power supply, make sure that that is connected
    3. If the external hard drive has a power button, make sure that it is set to

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110-277. We have wireless internet access in our House and it was workin fine, but since a few days I can not access the internet. My laptop is certainly recognizing internet connection wireless, but through IE or Firefox it just does not connect.

    For some reason, he worked briefly through Firefox, but then that stopped. I don't see what anyone, I have done differently, other than (finally) updated Windows Media Player, but why would that cause problems, I don't know!

  • K550 printer has a static IP address and I can not access!

    Long story short, the bonehead technician, who headed the school in front of me felt that he had to put everything on the static IP, including printers.

    Anyway, we have since got a new ISP that provided us with a router that functions as a DHCP server and automatically assigns IPs to all computers on the network and devices (unless we chose a static ip address manually). The new network streams of 192.168.168.XX while the old network is a completely different game (204.48.224.XX). Unfortunately, printers are still set to the old static IP and I can not access their web configuration pages to change because of their IP and walkways being inaccessible.

    I can connect by USB to a computer and set them up in USB if there's a way. I searched the manual and the help topics and couldn't find what I was looking for.

    Is it possible for me to give back the networking on my printer K550 except in web admin using the? Help, please. I am the only technician here and it's the first day of school. I have quite a few teachers angry on my hand

    I don't know anything about this printer, but I could find on page 46 of the Manual:

    To reset the network settings on the printer (HP Officejet Pro K550dtn/K550dtwn)
    1 press and hold / (the Configuration Page button), press (button) 3 times, and
    release / (the Configuration Page button). The power light flashes for a few seconds. Wait for the
    Power light is on.
    2. press on / (the Configuration Page button) to print the configuration page and verify that the
    network settings have been reset. By default, the name of the network (SSID) is "hpsetup" and the

    mode of communication is "ad hoc".

  • When a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet until the restart network card

    Hello! I found a problem with my system: when a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet, until restarted network card. Reinstall NIC driver did not help. Problem appears on a built-in adapter, in the motherboard and a separate PCI card too.  Same router via its web interface is not accessible. Windows cannot automatically fix this problem after trying to diagnose a problem with his problem Diagnostic tool. After the diagnosis in the DETAILS window, MORE tests, it displays a message like this "computer remote can not receive a connection via the Internet (HTTP) Service Port". "Unplugging" a corresponding Local network connection and then reconnect solves the problem immediately. Switching between users, when two of them are connected do not cause this problem. Important: the problem occurs in the account of the user who was logged on the system FIRST after the PC was on, when the user disconnected on newspapers of a SECOND. If the SECOND user is logged in and the FIRST user disconnects, SECOND can still access the internet. It depends only on the sequence of the user's record, not on the particular user name. And one more interesting fact: after each user registered on and outside just for once, the problem seems to disappear until the PC is turned off and turn it back on!

    Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-VLK
    CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 K

    Hi, Mahesh,

    and thank you very much for your help! Update firmware driver and router LAN did not help me get rid of my problem, but greatly improved my experience of networking in general. Anti-virus software was not guilty, also, but! I found the "iControl" network software, installed as part of Sogiciel 'AI Suite II' (that came on the CD of motherboard ASUS driverssoftware), runnning and causing not only the problem mentioned above, but would also decrease upload speed up to 0.3 MB/s, when download passes to nearly 100 Mbps! Moreover, searching the Internet, I have found a lot of complaints about the behavior of this software, so that people watch you the occasional installation of this piece... sweet ;) As "iControl network" has been uninstalled (not only turned off in the settings of 'Ai Suite II'!), I'm totally happy with my system performance.

    Best regards

  • Connected to the local network, but can not use internet

    I recently had problems with access to the internet after reinstalling windows 7. Before the reinstall worked very well.

    I can connect to the local network without problem, and it shows that the internet is connected. Yet I can not access the internet. When I disconnect and reconnect, I get a few seconds of internet work before it stops working.

    When a diagnosis in the network and sharing Center, I get the error "default gateway is not available" and occasionally "the connection between your access point, etc. and internet is broken"

    Other computers and devices using the network are working properly, although there was a 'competitor IP address' error on another pc, which, after a reconnection, solved itself.

    I use an edimax 802.11n wireless card and a D-link router

    I tried several things to make it work again, but without result. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I think I can have fixed me, I installed the driver microsoft before the reinstall instead of the driver edimax and internet suddenly started working.

    Jeff,

    Lighrroom 6 is not a free upgrade from older versions of the software constantly, but rather can be purchased here: link to the purchase of Adobe products .

    Scroll to lightroom and click 'buy '. Click on the text selectable by "I want: 'and select 'upgrade'."

    However, since you have the CC photography plan, you should be able to download and install Lightroom CC 2015 on the site of creative cloud.

    Since Lightroom CC is a new product, it will not show as an update in Adobe Application Manager.

    Instead, press the button install next to Lightroom in the Application Manager.

    If you do not see 'install' by Lightroom in the application manager, please first try to log out and return to: connect and disconnect from the creative cloud desktop application

    If you still have questions, see option 2 in this link: Lightroom does not start or stops automatically after the splash screen
