Photosmart Premium C309g: What is the shortcut to 'Add a device' for?

Greetings,

I have a shortcut on my desktop, titled "add a device - Photosmart Premium C309g-m". The shortcut is:

"C:\Program Files (x 86) \HP\Digital"-AddADevice

By clicking the shortcut wonder how I will connect the device (USB, network or WiFi).

This should have been deleted after that I installed my printer? Is it safe to delete?

Thank you

Shane.

Yes, right click, delete.

  • All-in-one HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m requires the password wireless

    All-in-one HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m we recently had to ge to a new Westell router for the wireless. the printer connects when we put the password but anytime the commection to the router go out it will not reconnect until the password is released. He seems to forget the password.  System indicates that the software is up to date for the printer.

    Hi ckmcgraw,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you have recently changed your wireless router and now when he loses the connection, you must enter the password on your HP Photosmart C309g to reconnect to the wireless network. The reason why this could happen, it's every time, it loses the connection to the router assigns a new IP address, which would require a password for the network.

    You can set a static IP address for the printer, which should solve your password entry wireless every time, he loses the connection. See the steps below:

    • Print a network from the front of the printer Configuration Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    • Type this IP address into 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
    • Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    • Enter the IP Address 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 '.

    Please let me know the result, I hope this helps!

    Thank you

  • Photosmart Premium C309g-m: why the port sometimes numbers show the IP address of the printer?

    What is the meaning of the second address below?  In other words, why Windows lists two addresses for the same printer?

    Hello

    Windows check out the unit using the two protocol TCP/IP Standard, as well via the WSD using network protocols such as multicasting additional and Internet Printing Protocol, so the 2nd device detected by its host name and a complete URL.

    You can learn more about WSD in the following link:

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Services_for_Devices

    You can choose a Printers list, it will provide the same printing capabilities, but using different network protocols to communicate with the printer.

  • HP Photosmart Premium c309g-m PDF does not print correctly

    Am under Win XP. have HP Photosmart Premium c309g-m; running the last printer driver; printer connected wirelessly, using Adobe Reader 11.0.0.4.  In other words, I'm under the last printer driver and the latest version of the Adobe Reader software.  Everything prints fine except PDF.  See the PDF file in Adobe Reader, the print preview looks good, but I get blank pages on the printer with most of the settings.

    The pdf document is black and white.  I feel better if I say the HP print driver to print color and say the Adobe Reader print dialog for 'print picture '.  The output is readable, but much too weak.  Same results when you run the same configuration of printing on Windows 7.

    HP produces a printer whose driver is able to print PDF documents properly?  If so, I would consider buying one.

    Hi FeralUrchin,

    Thanks for the reply. No problem at all!  I'm glad that the replacement printer works very well.  If you have problems in the future feel free to go on the forum or contact the helpline.  Here is a link for the global coordinates for any future reference if necessary. Click here

    Thank you for being a customer of HP.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m the wireless to a wired PC

    I have a Photosmart Premium C309g-m connected wireless to the local network, as are also several other computers (Windows and Mac). No problem here, just connect and print very well. I also have an older office (windows) connected the wired access point. How can I get the Office for printing/scanning on this unit? It seems that HP Office software doesn't give me a possibility to have the two devices connected to the access point or the two wireless. It's silly. It is a network printer, and I should be able to just connect at least with its IP address.

    What Miss me?

    What is the model of your router?  Some routers have settings that prevent communication between the wired devices and wireless.  Here Network Diagnostics can help.

    Edit:

    I know that maybe it's a little late to come and see this post was several months ago, but I had the same problem.

    I ended up turning off the machine and opening printer and check the ink cartridges (I had seen just to find the part number for a new cartridge).  I found that the blue cover which snaps into place on the ink cartridges was broken not closed completely.  This has caused the printer constantly tries to go into maintenance mode, but it could never align cartridges.  She also told me that there is a paper jam, even when there is no paper in the machine.  I even let the maintenance run all night without success.

    Once the cartridges have been broken in place and the blue cover has been fully guaranteed, the printer worked.

  • Extremely slow printing wireless with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

    I see extremely slow print speeds when printing from a Mac or a Windows XP system on a new printer HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m wireless. The printer starts printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will take about 15 minutes then to print the rest of the page, each print after a very long break line. Print demo page doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents of programs such as Word 2008, Safari, and Firefox (I tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.

    If I connect to the printer via a USB connection it prints very well, so this problem seems to be the only wireless printing.

    Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
    Computer: Mac mini (late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop, by comparison using the latest drivers from the HP website)
    OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
    Method of connection: cable Ethernet connection to the router wireless
    Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple provided, drivers HP never installed as system comes with 10.6)
    Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (early 2009) 1 TB, honing a/d and modes of b/g on 2.4 and 5 GHz. TimeCapsule is in transition as the DSL modem handles DHCP service mode
    Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hide the SSID.

    IP addressing scheme: all addresses are distributed by the server DHCP without reservation of any kind

    The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates the complete signal. Connecting the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went off without a hitch. Only when you print a test document discover us the problem. The wireless network will behave as expected when you access Internet from Mac and Windows devices (tested with a laptop computer Dell XP and a MacBook with OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any problem with the wireless network together.

    Attempt to use:
    1 reboot and power off, wait, restart the computer
    2 reset the print subsystem, the printer off and on again and reinstall the printer

    3. disconnect the power to the printer and let it sit for several minutes before trying to print wireless.

    None of them worked.

    I don't know exactly what is happening... I'll have to think about.

    Looks like you're running with the current configuration.

    Can we call this resolved?

  • printer photosmart premium c309g set up failed

    My HP photosmart premium c309g (wireless connected to the network) is visible on my laptop but not on my computer by cable with windows xp, at least not by the HP software I have installed. When I enter the ip address of the printer in my browser on the xp machine, it opens the Web page, and everything seems fine.

    When I add a new device with the HP software it saids "printer is detected", but after a while, I get the message: in Dutch: het instellen van printer is mislukt, translated into English (I Think) "the implementation failed.

    The printer used to work on the computer. I don't know what I did so that it stops working. To solve the problem, I uninstalled the software and installed it again. The problem still exists.

    I tried the hp doctor. The printer does not appear. (The software showed a usb printer which was not connected at all)

    Is there a solution?

  • Photosmart Premium c309g-m does not print in color

    My Photosmart Premium c309g-m stopped printing in color, it only prints black. Both of my computers - laptop with Windows 7 and office with Windows XP.  The ink cartridges are all relatively new and have a lot of ink.  It started yesterday and there is no update for the computer or the priinter since the last time that I printed and got the color.  What should I do?

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m connection cavity problem

    Hello

    I bought a HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m today and have successful connected to my Wireless N network.  My problem is that every time that I reboot the printer there connect lasts for about 30 seconds and then gets BOUNCING and then stops responding all together.  It is repeatable, and happens whenever I have restart the printer.  All other nodes on my network will continue to work perfectly, so I don't think it's my router that is at fault or one of my computers that I can reproduce this problem since.

    As you can guess it is really frustrating having a printer that works wirelessly for 30 seconds and then stops.  The printer itself shows a very good wireless signal all the time so I don't understand what the problem is.  Any help would be appreciated, because I rather like this printer and don't want to shop for something else.

    The Linksys WRT600N is a wireless router simultaneous dual-band 802.11n.  There are a number of things to try:

    1. Please check that the width of the channel setting and 2.4 GHz band is fixed to 20 MHz only (you can still use the 5 GHz for customers of 40 MHz band).
    2. Make sure that you are not running in 802.11n mode only (it is not well defined by the IEEE 802.11n standard).
    3. If you're still having problems, open the printer's internal web page by accessing its IP address.  Select network, then wireless (802.11), and then advanced.  Scroll down to the bottom of the page and check the setting for in an infrastructure network use 802. 11 b / g behavior.  Press on apply.

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g suddenly stops printing wireless

    I recently bought this printer. I've set up to print wireless. I installed and uninstalled twice b/c after about three times wireless printing, it stops wireless printing. Here is the order of events.

    (1) install the software according to the instructions

    (2) test page wireless printing, that always works

    (3) other printing things the same day wireless (works fine)

    (4) try to print something wireless as 2-3 days later

    (5) it does not. Get message of the staing HP Solution Center which is obvious: Document cannot print (duh). Through troubleshooting (Windows help). It tells me to make sure that it is the default printer (it is) and then check if it is online. It is usually not. So I choose to do the printer online (which is a sub-question, and I'm sure is related to the problem, why it keeps automatically be disconnected?)

    (6) attempt to print

    (7) message appears saying that HP Photosmart C309g-m offline (Solution Center)

    (8) read troubleshooting tips (HP Solution Center), which tells me to connect via USB to print (which annoys me because there is no available solution that tells you how to restore a wireless communication between the router/computer/printer)

    (9) which I did the first time around, but find that when I connect using the USB, it prints well. Any attempt to return to wireless printing is reflected in steps 7 and 8

    (10) check the connection of the application printer wireless network printing. Indicates that the printer is properly connected wireless. I know that my laptop is on the same network b/c that's the only one I have and my internet connection is not interrupted somehow.

    (11) get frustrated, uninstall and reinstall the printer

    Repeat step 2.

    This has happened twice already, and I bought it so that I COULD print wireless. He must be troublemaker solution Quen uninstall then reinstall the printer each time that happens (up to once a week).

    I have a laptop computer, a printer and a wireless router.

    have a Belkin g MIMO Wireless router

    I own a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop

    I have a HP Photosmart Premium C309g (bought less than 2 weeks ago)

    I do not turn off the router or printer. Rarely I have turn off the laptop. Reset the router in the past has not helped. Turning and on the printer or the laptop in the past has not helped.

    Issues related to the:

    (1) how to prevent printing to offline on my laptop

    (2) how to restore communiucation between the printer and the laptop computer on the wireless network?

    (3) how do I keep the communication between the computer laptop and printer (and I assume that the router) to go Bye Bye?

    Thank you

    About what you suggest, the IP address remained the same throughout the facilities and absorption.

    However, I have thought of it. I guess that the wireless connection on the printer. I went back to the office and looked at my network settings. I needed to "find" my wireless signal. The first time that I've refreshed my wireless name does not show upward. I refreshed again and POOF! He was there! So I chose and put in my password (I think that his WPA encryption). When he finished the wireless network connection, it is printed on a network status page. Given that I printed this page so many times already I happened to have an old on my desk. I noticed that the IP address is the same (although today, I uninstalled and reinstalled again) on both forms. Anyway, when I returned to my computer (which is in my living room) HP Help Center had a giant green check mark on it and said that the printer is connected. Then I printed something and it worked! YAY! It would be great if HP put in information on the way to reconnect wireless when you get this message "the printer is not connected. Who knows maybe I needed to evacuate to understand! Laughing out loud

    So for everyone out there, if this happens to you:

    1) go to your printer

    (2) select the arrow to see the next menu. (it should be on the right side of the LCD screen, it looks like a triangle on the side)

    (3) select Setup--> network--> network wireless assistant

    (4) the printer will start to search for wireless networks

    (5) choose your network (or the network you are using...  It should be the same as your computer/laptop is on)

    (6) if it is password protected, enter the password/password

    (7) your printer will print a network status page.

    (8) your computer should "recognize" the printer on the network itself. Your HP help window can display a large green check mark (it's a good thing!)

    (9) print what you want!

    * Note I guess that you may need to do this each time the printer goes into sleep mode. Its not that boring!

  • HP Photosmart Premium C309g do not print black ink

    Hello

    My HP Photosmart Premium C309g (CD055A) will not print black ink even if the cartridge is full. He's going through the motions of printing but the pages come out blank. It prints colors, they are not as dark as before, so I know that black is not working. I have cleaned the print heads, turned off the printer, unplug the printer, restarted the computer, but nothing works. I get colors on the report of the print quality, but the printer status report comes out blank. I bought a new black ink cartridge (564XL) think the previous one was defective (levels showed a 75% ink) but I still have the same problem. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hey,.

    I see you have done some troubleshooting on the issue of the print quality that you are experiencing.  I would make sure you did all the troubleshooting steps available for your research problem in the document following the link.

    Print colors are the colors should not when the C309 Photosmart Premium printing.

    If you have completed all these steps, then I check the status of your printer warranty.  If it is out of warranty, you should consider the solution provided by Bob_Headrick in the thread found here.

    Hope this helps,
