Performance of newly shared printer on home network!
As I shared my computer printer with my husband papers began to jam and the printer prints incorrectly or not at all.
I checked the 'Status' of the quue and Control Panel printer. All fittings are perfect and port 'USB '.
My Lexmark 215 printer talking about 4 or 5 years. I rarely use it.
Also, I got for 3 or 4 days attached to my 'Flash Drive' on my USB Port. This action has something to do with my performance of the printer?
Please advise?

Sharing a printer or by using the same USB port for something else has no effect on the behavior of the printer. Will minimize paper in the printer (interference) is usually caused by the use of incorrect, wrinkled or folded paper paper or otherwise completely erase a previous jam. See your user's Guide (assuming you have an all-in-one Lexmark X 215, your user's Guide is here--> http://www.lexmark.com/publications/pdfs/x215/eng/ug.pdf and the relevant section begins on p. 69). Maybe if you rarely use the printer, it is used more now that you shared with your husband and so to see only a problem now. I saw at least a site that considered the Lexmark X 215 and noted that "many users have reported problems with paper and other malfunctions jams."

We need additional information to help you with the problem, please answer the following. What antivirus application do you use? I suggest to change firewall security settings, or disable the security software on the system and try to access the location. Method 1: Disable the firewall on the Machine 1 and check the status of the issue. Enable or disable Windows Firewall http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off Note: You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall is enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers. Note: In addition to a firewall, you must also be an antivirus and anti-malware program to help protect your computer. Install Microsoft Security Essentials or another antivirus and anti-malware program and update it. Many of these programs update automatically. Method 2: (a) click on «Start», enter "NCPA. CPL"(without the quotes) and press ENTER. (b) right click on the connection you use for the local connection, and then click "Properties". (c) click on the button continue to check the permission of the administrator. (d) click to select 'Protocol Internet Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)' and then click 'properties '.
(e) click on the button "Advanced" in the opened window. On the "WINS" tab, select 'Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP' and then click 'OK' to save the setting.

HP Photosmart 7260 - I get "network busy" message when you try to print from home network I've included just a mac pro with Snow Leopard OS on my home network. I tried to add the shared printer, but even with the IP address, I can't print. Work of all my other pc. The host computer uses Windows XP, DELL router with firmware update, the printer is connected through a router. I already downloaded the latest drivers from the Apple site. Without success. OKAY, OKAY. Honestly, I'm not very good with printer sharing, especially across operating systems, but I'll give it a shot. First of all, just to be clear, the printer is connected to a XP machine via USB and you're trying to print via a router, right? Let's try the simple approach: 1. enable the account on the XP machine. 2. on the Mac, go to System Prefs > Print & Fax, click the plus sign "+" to add a printer, and then click the Windows icon at the top. 3. go to the XP machine, you may have to connect to it. 4. choose the appropriate driver in the menu dropdown. If it does not exist, choose a Gutenprint driver. Yet once again, I'm not very experienced with that - let me know how it goes. OfficeJet 6500 a: securing wireless printer on home network Hello I did some research on it and can't seem to find the answer. Others say that their problem has been resolved, but I don't see how. I have an Officejet 6500 connected to the router in my house - I manually entered the IP address. I suspect that someone in my house (family member) is the impression of the things on my printer because my ink disappears quickly. It's no big deal, but I thought I'd give the password protect the printer so that they could not connect and print at will. I have read other solutions, and people say that remove 'everyone' from the Security tab in windows will work, but that only works if I was connected to the printer via USB and share my connection to a printer through Windows. Everyone connected to my without wire can install the driver and it will find the HP printer on our network, install and they can print at will. Is there a way to put a password on the printer, so access on a home network can be limited to even when I'm not home? I realize that they could connect manually via USB - I'm just trying to make more of a pain to print when I'm not around. I guess I could of pseudo-seggregate my networkt House using a mask of the subnet and the printer on my laptop but my network is a little rusty as I am out of the TI of career and did not want to understand. I can't find a way to disable the SSID broadcast - which would effectively mask the printing software to find the printer on the network. I am disappointed that the designers at HP could not put something so seemingly simple as requiring a password to connect to the printer. Any thoughts there? Thanks for confirming my suspicions. If ever I strong enough to play with maybe subnet masks I'll post how it's done, if it works. Stupid... everything in this world is cheap and poorly thought. Can't wait until this printer still works and HP stop cartridges or has no drivers for the next version of Windows coming out that everyone starts to use 3 years after the release, so that they can work out the bugs.

I can't get this username entered with success because I'm limited to only users on the computer, I'm trying. I have Windows XP off file sharing simple. Both computers running XP Pro and I can share the folder, but it is open to ALL. Is there a way to do this? I would like to try to explain how it works. You have XP Pro on Computer1 and you have disabled Simple file sharing. It is a step in the right direction. The facts are that the file exists on the computer 1 and is 1 computer to control what external connection gets access to this file. Computer 1 can only validate combinations of username/password names he knows. Is not in a domain, computer environment 1 includes only names of user and password that exists on the computer 1. He cannot know or trust any combination of name of user and password that does not exist within itself. The normal method, most people use is to create the same user on computer 1 that exists on the computer that connects and gives the same password that is used on the computer that connects to this user. If this is the case, the external user connects seamlessly and have access if 1 computer gave this authorization to the user in this file. Access can be controlled by right-clicking on the file or folder, select 'Properties' and then use the 'Security' tab to generate an access matrix. Authentication: When connecting to the computer 1 from another computer, computer 1 search first if the username on the computer connection exists on the computer 1. If the user name of the user on the computer connection exists on computer 1 and passwords on both computers to match, the connection is established. If the passwords do not match, the connection is refused. If the user name of the logged in user does not match a user on computer 1, then the 'Guest' user is attempted. If the guest user is not protected by a, then the user will resemble the user 'Guest' and 'Guest' appropriate access. If the guest user is disabled on Computer1, and then the computer connection displays a name of User/Login screen asking the user to provide credentials (name and password) 1 computer can use and recognize to check that the user. If a name of user and password recognizes that computer 1 is entered, then computer 1 authenticates the user with this credential. Of course, once authenticated, the user will have access to these files to which permissions have been granted to this user authenticated according to the KB307874. XP cannot grant permissions to users, he knows not (obviously) beyond the 'Guest '. Bottom line is that you have discovered in a domain environment (workgroup), you MUST authenticate as a legitimate user who is (and who is not disabled) on Computer1. HTH, Can our laptap print to a network printer without installing any drivers? Our kids often connect to our wireless home network and need to print something. Is there a way for them to quickly give the network printer and print without a tedious installation process on the laptop? Do we not have to install the printer and install the drivers on each laptop independently or can the computer laptop everything simply connect to the network printer and print? If every laptop needs drivers, then is it possible that the proper drivers may be automatically installed on the laptop when it connects to the network printer? We print on a HP Photosmart C7180 printer connected by USB to our home computer (running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit) and Ethernet connected to our router. The wired Ethernet printer is the shared printer on the network. The shared printer has an IP address assigned by the router. The Windows 7 and Vista PC as well as Mac can simply add the printer because the drivers are included in the operating system. The XP machines will have to download the drivers. Download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page. To add the printer on Win7 and Vista: start > Control Panel > printers > add printer To add the printer on the Mac: System preferences > Print & Fax > click the '+' to add the printer. Hello, my network is not working properly at home. Computers communicate with each other and I can't save on my NAS. I think that there is a problem with administrators and/or the useres, but I have no idea. This is the upward. I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give me. (Wireless) LAPTOP running XP SP3. DESKTOP computer running Windows 2000. Western Digital MY BOOK (1 TB, call the BIG HD) connected to the WRT610N for NAS. Western Digital MY BOOK (500 GB, call LITTLE HD) connected directly to the DESKTOP and shared with EVERYONE. Computers and the router are assigned to the 'HOME' network All IP addresses are static. All firewalls have other computers IP Allow or FULL TRUST. Before adding the WRT610N computers are networked and two external drives we connected to the DEKSTOP and everything worked great using a wrt54g. The two external HDs were shared and I could read/write in everything on a hard drive of computers. I could save the laptop via Norton 360 on each disc. Only problem was the speed and I wanted the SIN for the DLNA media service. Since then, I installed the WRT610N and connected to it the BIG HD for the uses mentioned previously. There are a couple of different issues going on that I can't understand. First of all, DESKTOP does not see other computers in the HOME network. It is always assigned to the HOME network. Trying to view other computers in the HOME network, that the DESKTOP appears. Laptop will show the WRT610N and the OFFICE of the HOME network. Laptop will be connect/read/write to the BIG HD on the WRT610N. Laptop has no permission to access OFFICE. So I can't go to the SMALL HD on the DESKTOP via laptop. This is where it gets really strange. When you back up PORTABLE HD GRAND via Norton 360, the backup fails after 832 files. After the backup fails, laptop no longer has permision to access the BIG HD. Laptop can no longer open WRT610N of icon in the HOME network either. Does not have permission. Also, if I try to click the icon for the WRT610N on the HOME network or the icon for the mapped HD BIG in my computer, the wireless signal is de-energized and resets the WRT610. Laptop gets all rights, and permisions on WRT610N back after restarting the laptop. Before attempting the back upward, I made the BIG HD available via FTP and www.dyndns.com. It worked, I could remotely to the BIG HD from other computers via internet. Then after that the BACKUP failed, I got an email from dyndns.com saying that my host name has been blocked. Dyndns.com, three reasons for blocking are ' updates to your client on an interval (e.g. hourly), your client is defective (e.g. flooding), you run several clients. " I don't know why mine failed, but he did about the same time, I ran back upward. I know that I don't have muliple customers. It is the only host name or service or what I use with dyndns.com. I sent without changing anything on the WRT610N, dyndns.com, asked to be unblocked, and they unlocked my hostname. Have not been blocked since then, but I have not tried a return to the top since I unlocked yesterday. It's the last symptom. In my HD GRAND, all users and "S-1-5-21-789336058-329068152-725345543-5703" are listed as users. I understand that the long alphanumeric user can be the WRT610N. I didn't create it and I can't remove it. I don't know if this user is on the SMALL HD.
So, how can I get the DESKTOP on the HOME network? How can I get the LAPTOP and the DESKTOP sharing? How can I get the LAPTOP to save BIG HD without dropping out and having to restart the laptop (can't get a full backup now)? This is a problem of 'property' on which device has the HOME network. I know initially (WRT54G days) I have everything set up by the OFFICE. It now appears that the property could be made through the WRT610N. EVERYONE is allowed on each disc shared in the HOME network. All drives and shared folders have different names. All the problems occur with all security and firewalls as well off. I already flashed the firmware and power cycled the WRT610N about 30 times over the 3 months because of the attempts to connect the two HDs at the same time. The WRT610N seems to be stable except to drop the connection after 832 files during back upward. Can someone help me please? As you mentioned that all computers are in the same workgroup. Thing you need to check, on your desktop, open the window prompt commands and ping your IP of your laptop and check if you get all the answers, if you are getting answered, on your desktop, click Start - RUN - "\\Laptop IP" and click OK... and it will show you the folder list or the drivers that you have shared on your laptop , Just right-click on it and select 'Map network drive' and below check "Reconnect to the connection" and click Finish. It will be the card your laptop computer drivers shared on your desktop and you should be able to transfer the files from your desktop to the laptop. When you ping your laptop from your desktop computer are we can't get an answer, then you can try to disable the firewall and Antivirus on your computer. Your router has changed the MTU size to 1300 and click on save settings... That does not solve the problem even if you transfer files from your desktop / laptop computer on the NAS. 0x0000046a error code when trying to connect to a printer on a network and share I can't connect to a shared printer in the network (on a computer running Windows XP) with my laptop that is running Windows 7.
