Problem connecting to printer.

• Problems connecting my printer to my laptop HP wireless

  Hello. I have a new Dell Inspiron laptop with Windows 7 and only a little older HP Photosmart 5510 printer. The second works very well with my old Dell laptop, but I lost the disk that installed the soft ware printer.

  So, I downloaded the software of HP and the printer now appears on the printers and devices page. The printer itself is connected to my wireless connection and therefore the laptop. I was able to print a test page when the IP was put in a URL from this laptop.

  However, the printer is not displayed when I want to print a document and at the stage of the installation when the IP address/hostname of the printer has been entered, it is not found. Disable the firewall makes no difference.

  I hope that makes sense.

  Thanks to you all

  Find the section on editing a wireless USB connection. That is to say, first install the printer by connecting it to your computer via a USB cable, following the instructions... Check operation. Then, read and follow the instructions to switch to a wireless connection.

• OfficeJet 6600 - reports HP Connect "problem with the printer.

  I just bought an all-in-one OfficeJet 6600 and immediately installed on my MacBook Pro. Installation went smoothly, and I used it for scanning and printing. I am very happy. However, I noticed that HP Connect reports "Issue with printer." Well, it worked fine, so I ignored the error and continued to work.

  Tonight, I have installed the printer on a Windows 7 laptop. At HP Connect, it is always now reports "Problem with printer." That's it - no further details and no symptoms of any kind of problem. How to diagnose the 'problem' and how to fix it?

  Hi there, I know this may seem illogical, but I wouldn't worry too much about the problem with the printer State message in connected HP. I saw myself sometimes, and I was able to print successfully from a mobile device to the printer which connected HP indicated that there is a problem. Have you tried to send a job by using either the application mobile ePrint or to the e-mail address of printers for the printer in question?

  On the Windows 7 machine, you can also download and run the HP print and Scan Doctor to confirm there is no problem with the connection to the computer on which is installed the software of the printer or the printer hardware. Be aware, however, that the application is compatible with the Windows operating system only, so you cannot run it on the Mac computer, but unless you are having problems printing from Mac to the printer, there is no reason to suspect that anything is wrong.

  Hope that makes sense, but post comes back with other questions.

  Best.

• HP OfficeJet 6500 E710n: HP OfficeJet 6500 printer problem - connection to new Comcast Wireless Gateway E710n

  Use this printer (wireless) for a few years without problem connected to a Linksys 802.11n wireless router.  Connected to a desktop computer and two laptops.

  Comcast asked recently that I update my modem cable to a new wireless, which also serves as a 802.11n access point wireless router.  I installed the new point wireless very well and has been able to set up the printer on a wireless network. (IP, host name and Mac address doesn't appear on the thin printer).

  I reinstalled the printer drivers on each computer and everything worked very well last weekend.  This weekend, I went to turn the Scanner on the desktop (HP Pavilion, Windows 7, 64-bit) and it wouldn't work.  Then I reinstalled the device drivers and then there was no connection to the printer (many reboots the PC and printer at various times during the tests).  So I ran again the connection settings on the printer - and led wireless term.  (I was able to get the scan to the connection to the computer once on one of the laptops, never the office, then lost.  When I send to the printer, it goes into the queue, a very small number of bytes, cross (usually hear the printer starts) then there lost error "connection to a printer.  Oddly enough, a couple of times after canceling the print job in the queue, the printed test page actually printed a few minutes later...

  I tried to use HP Print & Scan Doctor - it was a complete waste of time.  To date, it has always died (do not connect not not the unit) and never been able to diagnose something.  I end up having to go to the Task Manager to kill him because he always hangs.

  Any thoughts?  I'm puzzled.

  Appreciate any help/ideas that someone can think.

  FYI - I have still no idea what the question is / was?

  Connected to the gateway wireless from Comcast to the old Linksys router and I went back to my old wireless network.  After you have reinstalled the printer drivers, re-connection of the printer to the old wireless network, re-start the printer and computers - I was (finally...) manages to get printing and scanning works again.

  What a waste of a morning/afternoon.

• Connected HP - 'problem with the printer '.

  Having not used the 'Apps' on my HP Photosmart 7520e for awhile I discovered that my printer is recognized on logging in HP ePrint, as "one line", but here's a yellow Triangle telling me 'problem with printer.

  My printer functions ok but if I try to use an application (I tried to print the calendar), I get the message "unable to connect to web services. "Cool Internet access and try again.

  I tested the printer by sending a test print of my Tablet and that works fine but Apps simply do not seem to recognize a web connection.

  Quite simply... Out there!

  Hi OnnaBugeisha,

  Thank you for being a member of the community of HP support.  I understand that you are unable to get the applications to connect from the front panel of the printer and you get a message "Problem with the printer" in connected HP.

  Connected HP sometimes gives a false report that there is a problem not specified with the printer. HP has been able to reproduce the error.  If there was a genuine mistake, the message would point to the problem (low on ink, paper, etc). Unspecified error message does not prevent you to use ePrint.

  Regarding applications is not enabled on the front panel of the printer, HP is aware of the problem and working on a solution. It is recommended that you have your updates of product set to automatic on the front of the printer in order to receive the update as soon as it is available. If you wish to discuss with a phone support agent, please call HP Cloud Services at 1-855-785-2777 if you live in the USA/Canada region.  If you do not live the USA/Canada region, please click the link below to find technical support for your country/region number.

• Problem connecting to the server, error connection server and printer offline. I have a HP photosmart printer and Windows 7?

  My printer is not printing. It say problem connecting to the server, connection error server and printer offline. I have a HP photosmart printer and windows 7.

  You have McAfee? McAfee has been updated at the same time as the last batch of updates from Windows 7 and it seems to be the cause of this problem for most, if not all, users.

  See the communication from this "criticism" - McAfee

  Some customers may experience a loss of network connectivity and/or errors in McAfee Security Center after a recent update

  You should make the fix McAfee, if necessary. There are corresponding communications for their enterprise products.

  I got McAfee, but the connection has started working again on its own so I thought I was clear of problems. However, when I checked it says he was doing routine checks the updates in vain when I told it to do a manually. So stick with McAfee you don't follow their procedure of fix would have upgraded my PC at risk by not updated and, like other McAfee ads have since explained, the application did not refer to its database of threats correctly [and this could explain part of the variability of the symptoms of failure but all involved loss of internet connection]. Actually, I removed McAfee then installed Microsoft Security Essentials rather & my answer IE is faster I knew it [even though I had the Add-ons McAfee disabled for centuries].

  I had to run the removal of McAfee Development tool a few times before and it caused a problem with the license if the PC was not connected to the internet during the abduction. Due cat of McAfee support reset their files in order to allow the relocation-reactivation. Here is their link cat - McAfee - media contains the link to the cat

• problem install shared printer on windows 7 64 bit

  Hey guys

  I recently got a thinkpad IBM with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

  We have a HP Laserjet 3015 which is shared on the windows xp professional computer.  I can't install on my computer. If I connect the printer to my computer via the USB port, windows find the drivers and it works.

  The problem is when I try and insatll it on the network it doesn't. I can search and find a computer to which it is attached, and see it in the list of shared printers, but when I ever I try to connect it says connection > > search on windows update > > can't find drivers. It gives me the opportunity to find the drivers to install. I downloaded the drivers on the HP site, but they do not help. whenever I select them in the manual it comes with an error indicating that the driver is not found then give u the option to install it yourself. When you select the driver it says windows cannot find an appropriate driver.

  How can I get around this?

  Try the following: on the Windows 7 computer go to file devices and printers, add a local printer, printer, create a new port, port Local, next, \\xpcomputername\lj3015 (where you put in the real share of the computer name and printer), OK, Windows Update (and wait for the list to repopulate), HP Laserjet 3015 PCL5, then, then.

• 7640 ENVY: ENVY error 7640 "There is a problem with this printer"

  Hi guys. I had this printer 4 months ago and it worked as wonderful. But this weekend when I turned it on the error "There is a problem with this printer" appeared right after it connected to my wireless network.

  I did several tests and the error comes only if the network is connected to the internet.

  When it is not connected to the internet fine print (prints, scans, all via wifi) jobs.

  I have a MAC and airport Time Capsule.

  Is there a set any that solved the problem?

  Now it's working. The problem was Auto IP. Set it to manual and it started working.

  Thanks in any case.

• HP Officejet 5740: there is a problem with the printer

  Every day the printer (not standby) turns on and shows "there is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer off, then on. "why what is happening every day?

  This problem got solved, later. Although tech hp sent me the ink HPInstant and that they "reset" of my printer, the error message returned in a few days and continues every day. Another call to Tech Support/InstantInk advised me to return the printer for an Exchange (it's 60 miles a way back). We decided to install Instant ink cartridges, as a last resort to resolve the error messages, and it worked. No error message. I put the original ink cartridges in the printer I can use those to the top. Still no error message and this printer now works well. PERSONAL OPINION: When we enrolled in instantink, hp tried to contact our printer via wireless (whatever) and when it failed an error occurred every DAY, after the installation of the instant ink cartridges a connection has been established at hpinstantink have finished the registration process.

• HP Officejet Pro 8500 has: WIFI connection to printer after moving from a computer in another city

  Hi @Raggetty ,

  I understand that you are having problems with the printer via the wireless network. I will definitely do my best to help you.

  Since you have moved, you must install the printer on the network.

  If you haven't already done so, restore the default settings of the network printer. Go to configuration, network, restore default network.

  Then set up the printer on the network again.

  Follow this document:

  Configure the printer to a wired network or wireless for the HP Officejet Pro 8500 has e-all-in-One Printer Series.

  If you need help to set up the printer on the network, let me know.

  Good day!
  Thank you.

• Problem with alert printer after you set up eprint

  I've just set up my HP eprint/connected to my printer HP Officejet 6700 account. I went through all the instructions and generated a code for me to record my printer. My printer came but I noticed that I have 2 alerts next to the printer which has been recorded. The alerts are:

  • Online
  • Problem with printer

  When I click on the message of the latter I get the following message

  • An unspecified problem was reported. Please check your printer.

  See the front panel of the printer for more information on the resolution of this condition

  I checked the printer, but it is not showing problems. I have however deleted the re-recorded new printer and web service. This time he seems to have solved the problem, but when I went back to the account later in the day the alert reappears.

  Could anyone help in this case.

• at & t u-verse, & having problems connecting my Officejet 4500 to my current wireless network

  Hello

  I just got an Officejet 4500, and I am unable to connect it to my current wireless network.  I'm AT & T U-Verse so I use 2Wire equipment.  I have a Mac Book Pro, and I'm on Mac OS X operating system 10.5.8.  When I try to connect, I get an error message saying something like "Failed to connect."

  In the past, I had problems connecting my Airport Express to 2Wire.  In order to make it work, I connected the router 2Wire and changed the WPA - PSK (TKIP) security settings and WPA2 - PSK (AES) to just WPA2 - PSK (AES).  My Airport Express was able to connect without any problems.

  Please help me to connect my Officejet 4500 to my 2Wire router.  I note also that I'm not really tech savvy so I need instructions are written in simple terms.

  Thank you in advance for your help!
