Printer stay connected to Windows 8

I have Windows 8 Compaq laptop. I also have a HP ENVY 4501 e-all-in-one printer. I had this problem with my printer last too, but now I am finally tired of it. Whenever I close the lid of my laptop or the powers of the printer off / sleep it disconnects from my laptop. So every time I want to print it tells me that the printer is offline, even though the printer is turned on and connected, sitting right next to me. So I go into the Control Panel, delete the printer and re-install. How can I get that it is connected to my computer all the time?

(By the way, I tried to let the printer 24/7 and still, it disconnects from my computer)

Help, please!

Thank you

  • Stay connected to windows rather than return to the screen of the user.

    I had this put option implemented in Vista, but can't seem to find how to do this in Windows 7.  I'm under Win 7 Pro (32 bit) If this is useful.  My situation is that, as I use this laptop, why windows must evict me and get to the selection screen of the user whenever it is idling or stop?  I remember it being an option 'case' in Vista.  Is there a way that my user account can stay connected in Win 7 instead of having me back to the user selection screen?  Thank you for your time and help.

  • Locally connected printer show offline on Windows 7 network after working initially

    OK, have you checked similar discussions which has no successful response.

    I have a PC with Epson printer connect directly via USB. Printer driver installed correctly.  Works very well.

    Windows 7 Ultimate (32 bit) no warranty other than windows firewall and microsoft security essential.

    Laptop connected wireless to PC.  On the same network and homegroup, file and media sharing, all works well.

    Laptop running Windows 7 Ultimate (32 bit) even PC security.

    When I add a network printer, find the printer on the PC and properly installs driver etc.  Printer appears in the devices and allows to print the first two times.

    However, the next day the network printer is 'offline' in the spooler to print on the laptop.  The documents simply stack up.

    The PC doesn't go to sleep and is left on all the time except for the screen is turned off.  Printer works fine on PC, indeed with the docs stuck on the laptop I can always print directly from the PC - even if it does not appear the printer to be online on the laptop.

    Having checked that the spooler printer on the laptop is running and set to automatic.

    Epson impossible / wants to help - have found a similar thread with no response - everyone all guess what to try?

    Thank you very much

    I had a similar problem and for me, the problem is with the EPSON driver.

    My printer is connected wireless to my network, I got the IP address and could he ping but WIN 7 it showed off line.

    Then, I went and took a look at the printer driver (chosen to start, devices and printer, the epson printer then under management of the printer, printer to customize, ports then configure port)

    And I noticed that for the Standard TCP/IP Port it was pointing to a different IP address than the one that my printer was currently. I edited it to match what the printer was and he came online.

    When you turn off the printer, its IP address back in your pool of routers to be reallocated.

    The windows driver Epson still has the old IP. You turn on your printer and your router can give it an IP address that is different from last time. Now, it doesn't match with what the stored before Epson driver and you says it's offline.

    For me, rather than change the IP address in the driver whenever it happened that I assigned an IP (fixed host) in my router based on my printers MAC address. In this way he always give my printer every time the same address and is no longer false messages offline appears under Windows.

    It is a driver problem Epson, not a windows problem.

  • Printer has stopped printing on 64-bit Windows 7 HP Probook computer laptop using the USB connection.

    I recently bought a HP Probook and connected the laptop to an old but very faithful computer HP Laserjet 5 p. The HP Probook uses a Windows 7 64-bit operating system. The printer is connected to one of the USB ports on the laptop.

    Printing worked fine until yesterday. To my knowledge, no update of the operating system took place. I tried change usb port, remove and reinstall the driver package, start and stop of the spool printing, deleting the temporary files in spool it print without result. When I click on print a Test Page, it seems to go to the printer, but is located in the coil. I also ran Print Microsoft FixIt which can't find any problem apart from the removal of the queue.

    To check the cable, I plugged the printer on an old Vista HP Pavilion laptop and no problem printing.

    I'm at a loss what to try next and would therefore appreciate all thoughts.

    Thank you.

  • Impossible to print to network printer with the firewall Windows blocks the outbound connection by default

    Hello

    I just installed a network printer.  The PC is on a private network.  The printer is the Brother printer and it connects to the wireless router via LAN.

    With the Windows Firewall, which allows outbound connection by default, I can print to the printer.

    However, if I change it to block the outgoing connection by default, I can print is more to it.  I've already activated in the preset group of Core Networking and sharing files and printer.

    In the Task Manager, a single exe comes from brother's installed file.  I've already activated a special rule for it and status monitor brother now shows the correct status of this printer.

    How can I find out what rules do I need to put?

    Thank you

    Answer seems simple.  The print spooler service (C:\Windows\System32\spoolsv.exe) must be added with the exception of outgoing.  I'm just surprised, that's not in the group for sharing files and printer.

  • Printer does not connect to Windows

    I have a 20 "intel computer core duo iMac with Leopard 10.5.6 and side Windows, I use Windows XP Professional.  I have a HP Deskjet 6988 printer wireless connected via Airport Extreme.  I installed VMWare Fusion 2.0.1.  This works perfectly (internet access, programs, etc.) except it won't print from any Windows application.  It gives a message "not responding" when I try to print.  "Printers and faxes" control panel shows the right printer with a check box indicating that it is the default printer.  I did a search for this problem but can't find anything the same as this.  Can someone provide help please?

    about the only other thing I can think - in the VMware menu at the top of the screen, go to the Virtual Machine, then settings, then activated is checked and make sure that you have scored the Match the default printer on Mac.  Have you tried?  It's the only other place that I see any reference at all to what printer you use w / VMware Fusion unfortunately.  Sounds like your settings Windows is correct, so I hope that's it.

  • Impossible to stay connected

    I moved to a new city and set up on a new router provided by our company.  Everything worked wonder through our previous router.  Have a HP Officejet Pro 8600 N911a.  Router comes from Hitron Technologies provided through Suddenlink cable company.  Running 2 laptops (with 2 versions of Windows - one provided by work on version 7, the other a personal portable version 8.1)-when I run the printer test page it says the OS environment is Windows X 64 the other says it's Windows NTx86.  I can't get my work laptop (if the printer went to sleep or the computer turned on for a few hours) to run, typing the printer key WPA wireless assistant whenever I want to print something.  Personal laptop that I literally have to reinstall the printer drivers on the computer and even that did not work today.  I have not yet tried the two IPADS yet but had in the past been able have them print via email HPE.  The last time I tried to do that it didn't work.  Needless to say that I can't continue to work in this environment and while I learned more that I always wanted to know about trying various corrections, I am not all tech savvy.  So I need a step by step fix.

    These settings are to set up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, wireless devices stay better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.

    1. define a static in the printer IP address (click here) out of the DHCP of the router Beach (check your manual).

    It is for Linksys routers, but can be used for all routers. Check your DHCP range and change this

    first of all if necessary. More Help Wireless Printing is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).

    2. check the printer "Auto off" is disabled.  Use the built-in webserver (EWS) by going

    the IP address of the printer in the address bar of your browser, click on settings tab/Auto Off. Or use the printer

    Assistant, printer Home Page (EWS). Also check the properties of your printers.

    3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, disable the IPv6 option in the printer.

    4. If necessary and you have assigned a static IP address, try using 8.8.8.8 for the preferred DNS server and

    8.8.4.4 at the level of the auxiliary DNS server.

    In the router: (refer to the manual of your router for more information)

    5. use a wireless channel fixed as 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.

    6 choose the router to 20 Mhz only, or 145Mbps router function.

    7. always use WPA2-AES encryption (personal), but you can try the "mixed" mode

    8 disable the WPS and never use it and disable the UPnP for the security of routers. No one can hack into your

    now the system and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, research on the web).

    9. If you have a router dual band (2.4 Ghz and 5.0 Ghz bands), make sure you the SSID is NOT the same.

    they must be different for all the bands, even for networks without comments.

    10 broadcast SSID must be enabled.

    11. save all settings. Food at the same time, wait 2 minutes.  Power on router wait 2 minutes.

    12 turn on the printer and check that it reconnects to the router.

    Windows 7/8/8.1 is discovered the system on or off?

    1. Control Panel/Network and Internet/network and sharing Center / advanced sharing settings.
    2. Under home or work (current profile) / network discovery.
    3. Select "Turn on network discovery" and save the changes.

  • OfficeJet Pro X476dw: Officejet Pro X476dw will not stay connected!

    I've been struggling with my printer is connected via the wireless connection.  Recently, I thought it may be the firewall and had my disable the firewall administrator (which did not help).  I have several devices working on my wireless network, and none of them (with the exception of the HP printer) have no problem to stay connected.

    Here are the questions:

    • When I am able to connect to the wireless printer, sometimes it says connected but still does not print.
    • Connects and disconnects randomly.  So I go back in the connection process.
    • Sometimes when connection it does not recognize / 'see' my router, which is 2 feet away.  I turned off my whole system and rebooted and the printer still does not recognize the network.

    I did the following, with no relief:

    • Close my entire system (computer, modem, printer and router) and restarted.
    • Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer.
    • Reset printer factory (to start).
    • Recycled turned off and rebooted my router.
    • Confimred my router had the latest Firmware.
    • Ran each diagnosis available through HP and all he says is that it is not connected (duh!)

    My hardware is as follows:

    HP Probook s 4540, running Windows 10 (64)

    OfficeJet Pro X476dw

    ASUS AC3100, RT-AC88U router

    Please respond with any ideas/suggestions.  I really like this printer for my small business when it's working, but at this point if I can't get this resolved fine goodwill that I can't spend more time trying to get it operational.

    Thank you for your time and help!

    Thanks for the clarification!  I'll take a look and respond back!
