My HP 8500 Wireless printer does not see my wireless network.

Using my wireless HP8500 printer, I am unable to see my wireless network.  I recently bought a Linksys EA6500 router and this is when the change occurred.  I am Windows 7 64 bit on my laptop and desktop.  Does anyone have suggestions on what to do?  the printer is able to see other networks in the vicinity, but not mine.  My Network works fine with all my other devices.

Thank you!

I don't know what is happening here.  Cisco routers are usually pretty good at this stuff.

That is, you can run Ethernet (Cat5) that should work and avoids all the problems wireless.  Your ipad/iphone will not worry how the printer is connected as long as the router can communicate with it.

Once you connect the printer to the router with Ethernet, we will set an IP address of the printer:

-Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
-Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
-Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
-On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
-Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
-Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
-Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS. It's Google DNS. You can choose a different external DNS if you wish.
-Click 'apply '.

Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

  • Network printer does not see my Mac, running OS 10.8.2

    My Envy 411D all-in-one printer is not 'see' my laptop (macbook pro 2012).  I can print from the computer to the printer, but is not possible scanning in both directions, from the printer to the computer and vice versa.  I get an error message - communication error.

    The scan function shows computer of my spouse, but not mine (we are Mac OS 10.8.2 on MacBook Pro laptops).

    It's already happened and for me, the only way around him, needed to take several hours to reinstall the printer software.  When you do this, HP treats you like a re-registration of customer and applications quite new and all that.  We are already registered, however.

    So please advise me me, I would like to know an easier way to get the functionality I expect from this device.

    Thank you.

    Indeed, it might be your router and use WEP security.  WEP is not really security because it can be broken with freeware within minutes.

    Pass the security of your router to WPA with a password you create.  While you're here, change the channel to 11 on 2.4 GHz router mode.

  • HP 932C PRINTER DOES NOT WORK ON A NETWORK WITH TWO DIFFERENT OPERATING SYSTEMS.

    I have a 932C HP printer connected via USB to a desktop Windows XP (Dell E520), which is part of a home network.
    I also have a HP Pavilion dv5 notebook, running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - bit, connected to the same network. This book can find the printer on the network. However, when I try to capture the 932C printer, the following dialog box appears:
    "The printer"hp deskjet 930C series"server has not the printer driver installed. If you want to find the right driver, click OK. Otherwise, click Cancel and contact your network administrator or the OEM equipmente for the printer driver. »
    When I click OK, another dialog box appears:
    «The file ' *.» INF' we (unknown) is needed. Type the path where the file is located, and then click OK. »
    However, I can't find any feasible *.inf file in laptop HP hard drive (both partitions).
    I tried to download the driver from the HP website, but it says that Windows Vista already has the driver for this printer! Well, now I'm stuck!
    I want to emphasize that the printer works fine if I connect it directly to the USB port on the HP laptop. But I want to use the printer via the network, keep it hooked to the Windows XP desktop.

  • Mac does not see my printer "J611a"?

    Hello

    I have connected my printer to my router (it shows the name of the correct router if I run a config report), but does not see the printer on my Mac (when it is wireless).  Everything works fine if I connect to my Mac with a USB port.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.  Stuart.

    Hi SRJC

    I understand that you cannot set up the printer on the wireless network.

    For me looks that you connect the USB cable from the printer to the router. Generally this method will not work.

    You need to configure the wireless through the printing software and add the printer on Mac.

    Given that the printer works via the USB on the Mac already then you can follow these steps:

    1. Click OK in the Menu bar above and then click Applications .

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium: HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium does not print the docs of the computer, but will display a test page.

    HP Officejet Pro 8500 a Premium does not print the docs of the computer, but will display a test page.  I constantly get a message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.   Not only it will be not be printed docs, it will not print web pages using 11 IE or Google Chrome.

    I used print and Scan of doctor, he always reports there are no questions and print page one same test so I can not print anything else.

    Whenever I want to print, I have to restart the computer.  After the reboot, I have a chance to print.   This problem started on February 15, 2015.

    My operating system is Windows 8.1.   I have unintalled HP, rebooted, and then reinstalled the software software:

    OJ8500_A910_1315 - 1.exe

    HP Print and Scan - HPPSdr.exe doctor

    HPSupportSolutionsFramework - 11.51.0049.msi

    All versions were last uploaded on 4 April 2015.

    I have a home wireless network (router Ubee DDW366).  All other devices in the House will be printed on the printer of 8500 has no problems: 2 Toshiba laptops, 2 Android phones and 1FireHD.

    The desk top is installed with a network card Netgear, I don't know the model, but I had it tested by a PC technology to verify that the card works.   The card and 8.1 of Windows have been installed on January 3, 2015.

    I have run virus scans and analyzes malware.  Whenever they show that there are no problems with my desktop computer.  What kind of desktop? Specially designed for my listing of... without brand computer parts store.  ASUS motherboard P6X580 Premium.  Now I will probably get hacked!

    I'm at my wits end.  And it's frustrating when I need to print something and the system hangs.  I often use screen printing to a word document to save in order to restart... but then I lose all sorts of features when I pick up what I needed.  It is also a time consuming.

    This printer we served well for two years and I have expensive cartridges pending; another two cycles of recharge.

    Help?

    Addendum: can I scan with the HP printer help.  I open the HP printer assistant, he "gets" the printer information, then I select "scan a document or photo" and the printer answers.   I have no problem with the sweep.

    It has been awhile, but I played on something you wrote.  "There could be a software conflict with the HP software" everything worked very well... impression was shifted at best; just didn't know if it would work.  So I would eliminate a program, reboot clean, try to print, and then reinstall the software.  I finally found the culprit.  I had a program running in the background, occasionally.  When it ran, HP does not print.  Stop the program and I was able to print... Do not have a problem since I found it... I do not say that it was a software to share files... so I replaced since this program with something else that doesn't cause problems...  It took a long time and I couldn't work the question every day.... but I can say that I have problems printing for the past 5 days!  I can print with confidence.

  • Remote Desktop does not see HP 8500

    My remote desktop does not see my new HP Officejet Pro 8500.  He's always seen my printers in the past, including my HP Officejet Pro 7600 on Windows 7.  I can't understand what setting I have to miss.

    Finally, I figured out, and I'll post it in case anyone else needs help.  MY remote desktop is accessible via the Terminal Server (Windows 2003 Server) services.  the driver must be loaded on the server is available with this link:

    OJP8500vA909_corporate_12_en.exe

    After you have installed the driver on the server, install the printer through "add a printer", local option and uncheck "auto detect."   Find the driver on the list, and then install the printer.  Then you should be able to see it on the server.

    If you then install it on a remote desktop (through the Terminal Server services), download the driver 8500 on remote desktop, install the driver on the desktop through "add a printer".   Right click on the printer on the "printers and faxes" screen and view properties.  Go to "ports" and find a port that communicates with your printer.

    IT seems that a special driver must be installed on the server, and then the standard printer driver must be installed on the remote desktop.

    If this isn't the case, then you should first update the BIOS!

    The latest version of the BIOS is on the European driver Toshiba page and it can be modified running Windows OS.
    As far as I know, you must use 2.5 or later version BIOS.

  • Wireless printer does not work

    I have a HP Pavilion G60 laptop and an HP Photosmart c309g printer.

    When I try to print from the laptop using the wireless feature, the printer does not respond. The printer works with my desktop computer and laptop shows the printer as default printer. He had previously worked, and stopped for some unknown reason.

    Try completely disabling Norton and then try to print. Its mostly likely block the port used by the printer that is causing the problem.
