setting up 960C to a wireless deskjet

I'm new to this forum and would be recognizing any help in the right direction. I just bought an edition four HP Pavilion DV7t and a model of wireless n Linksys WRT160N router. I set up my wireless network and it works very well. However, I would like to connect my HP deskjet 960C printer to the network but I don't know where to start. What do I need and what I need to re - configure the printer?

Sorry, but your printer has USB connectivity only and your Linksys router does not have a USB port on the printer.  You can add a Linksys Wireless print server, but for the same or a little more money you could buy a printer wireless (with scanning and copying capacity).

You're stuck with plug it into your computer.  If other computers want to share the computer with you, this is possible (with varying degrees of success).

Real printers wireless (with scanners and photocopiers) are very cheap these days.  You want some recommendations?

    If I set up a wireless Deskjet 3052 a network can I switch to USB later?

    Hello

    Yes. In fact, I am currently using my printer in both directions. I plug into an old desk via a USB port. I turn only my old machine on a few times a month, but the USB port is always connected.

    Kind regards.

  • HP Deskjet 2542: Cannot print wireless Deskjet 2542 after installing the new modem/router

    We have recently installed a new Netgear modem/router and have not been able to print wireless since installation. I tried everything I could find on the forum and still no luck. Any help will be appreciated.

    Replacement/change your wireless router, try here.

    http://www.HP.com/global/au/en/wireless/reconfiguring-system-Help3.html

    Make sure that your router is set to a fixed channel wireless as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.  Try each of the channels one at a time.  Make sure they are spaced at least 5 feet.

    However, if you have a gateway device (modem + router), all gateway devices are terrible for connectivity and wireless performance.   If this does not work, suggest you put this bridge in full bridge mode device and install your own router of high quality that YOU have full control over.

  • Can't set up wireless Deskjet 6840 to brightbox Router 2

    I had my Deskjet 6840 connected and printing wirelessly through a netgear router, but EE upgraded me to 2 Brightbox.

    I connected the printer with an ethernet cable and it works fine.

    However, when I download and run the installer HP Deskjet 6800 series on my Windows XP machine and try to set up the printer to print wireless using the router, two things happens:

    1. the installation software ends with a 'serious mistake' and restores

    2. If I try to change the settings during the installation process, the Setup Wizard rejects my password/WEP key as invalid before you even attempt to use it.

    Can anyone help?

    I solved it!

    This article gave me some clues:

    http://www.TechSpot.com/community/topics/HP-DeskJet-6840-network-problems.177199/

    I printed manually the configuration of the printer using the HP help page:

    http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay?javax.portlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.prp_ba847bafb2a2d782fcbb0710b053ce01=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c00207484-1%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.portlet.tpst=ba847bafb2a2d782fcbb0710b053ce01&ac.admitted=1393605670408.876444892.492883150#N102F7

    Print a Network Configuration page

    Prints the page with detailed information about the settings and wireless and network status. It is available in English only.

    1. Make sure the printer is on and idle.

    2. Press and hold the button to report Page.

    3. Press the button cancel four times, and then release the report Page button.

      Then I typed the network address in my browser to go directly to the configuration of the printer

      Under the 'Network' tab, I launched the wizard and confirmed my SSID

      On the next page, he asked the WPA password and explained that it could be numbers or letters

      Here's my problem: the standard password provided by EA included hyphens!

      I connected to my router and removed hyphens from the password

      I entered the new password in the wizard for the printer

      AND IT WORKED!

    Hi @Francis78,

    I see that you have problems with the implementation of the printer on the network. You get the message "the network name (SSID entered) manually is not found". I would like to help.

    Cycle power to the router, computer and printer.

    Please double check the correct password and type of encryption, click the wireless on the taskbar, right-click on the name of your network, click Properties, click view the password, it will tell you the type of encryption and password. Spaces and special characters may not be recognized.

    Here is a document to set up the printer on the wireless network.
    Setting up the printer on a wireless network for HP Deskjet 2540 and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage all-in - One Printer Series 2545.

    If you have turned on Mac filtering, on the router, you will need to add the Mac address of the printer.

    If you need help, let me know.

    Have a great day!
    Thank you.

  • Reconfiguring a printer wireless deskjet 3520 on the new network.

    Hello... I bought and installed my deskjet 3520 on my wireless network and 2 laptops about 1 week ago.

    Everything was fine but then a PC started refusing to connect to the network.

    Technical support to the Belkin unhooked all the network and uninstalled everything... then reconfigured a new wireless network. Call Net2.

    Access both the web very well on Net2 PC but the printer connects is no longer makes sense if he still thinks I'm on Net1.

    So... the question is... What is the best way to get the 3520 to be accessible on Net2 on BOTH computers.

    I didn't want to screw up whatever it either so have not tried whatever it is me again!

    I'm reasonably notified have the installation disc. Win7 operation on both computers. Wired ethernet connection available and can connect each PC with a USB stick if necessary... but really want to use both wireless. I also have original HP print and scan doctor installed from the installation process!

    Hope that helps and thanks in advance!

    No problem!

    When you post again, I'll check in.  I wish you the best in getting the printer is connected to the new configuration of the network.

    If you need assistance I am more than happy to help.  Have a wonderful and safe trip!

  • Need help setting up a network home wireless to the working group. I tried everything I read and nothing has worked. I got lost.

    I just received a more recent laptop and wants to set up a network so I can transfer files back.  It seems that it would be a fairly simple network to set up, but obviously I'm missing something.

    It must be a wireless network.  I have a wireless router, two Toshiba laptops, running a Windows 7 and the other runs Windows 10, and I have a printer.  I can access internet with laptops or both if the router does not seem to be the issue.

    I read articles that said I had need of a homegroup, but that did not work.  Then I read an article saying since my computers running different operating systems, that I couldn't use a homegroup that I should use a workgroup.  I followed the instructions given in the article and which don't seem to work either.

    The names of working group on both computers are the same and so are the passwords.  The computer names are different.

    I was on the old computer and when I go into Windows Explorer, under network, I can see the two names listed, however, when I click on the other computer, I get a message saying that the computer is not on the network.  I got the internet service at the time so the router was working.  Another time I tried to copy a small file to the other computer and the message said I didn't have permissions to do so.  I got the same message when I tried to add a folder to the other computer in the network area in Windows Explorer.  I get the same types of messages when I try things peers, while on the new computer.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  So far, since I got the new laptop, I spent nearly three weeks, trying to get things to work.  This seems to be the biggest challenge of all.

    Hi Carole,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Let me suggest you refer to the article below which will help you to set up HomeGroup from start to finish.

  • Cannot set up and install a wireless printer. HP Photosmart the 427 UDP Port

    I know this question has been posted several times, and before I go, I want to report that I was researching spending last week and try every possible solution I've read. So I hope that someone can offer some new or still has outstanding question.

    Equipment: HP laptop, Windows 7, HP Photosmart Plus B209 all-in-one, Netgear WNDR3700 (Dual Band), Norton 360 Antivirus/Firewall

    My laptop and printer are both about two years. I have the wireless printer set up in my previous home on a different network (more old netgear router). No issues what so ever.

    So I recently moved into a new home, bought a new router and set up a wireless network. Everything works fine without thread; two laptops, xbox, ps3, tv, cell phones, etc.). I finally had time to set up the printer. USB works fine. But it can not configure for wireless use. I get the infamous (together with HP printers) error message that my computer cannot communicate with the printer and I need to open port 427 UDP. Tried twice more, but no dice.

    Uninstalled all HP software and the printer driver and re-downloaded/installed the latest things from HP website. Tried to install the printer and Wireless Setup again, but still no dice. USB works fine.

    And there began my long trip. Here is the list of things that I did without success, and I'm sure I did right. Turn off my firewall (norton and windows). Opens UDP Port 427 (norton and windows). 427 on my router (port forwarding) open UDP port. Maunally added the printer through windows as a wireless device. Manually add a network printer.

    I still get the same error of UDP port 427. Please PLEASE help me. tI really want to fix this and refuse to believe that something as simple as it is not repairable. Printers are cheap and I don't mind buying a new one (not HP), but I have enough stubborn to give my with trivial issues such as this.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    I suggest you contact HP support for help.

  • Wireless Deskjet 3520 on broad-band fiber

    Hello friends,

    Currently I have my Deskjet 3520 multifunction wireless installed on my home network, (a laptop and a Deskjet) and am upgrading to a facility broadband fiber this Monday, July 8.

    The upgrade will involve the use of a new brand high-speed fiber modem/router, and I would like to know if I have to completely reinstall my all-in-one Deskjet 3520 to establish a wireless network between my Deskjet and laptop (Windows 7 OS), or can I skip some steps in the manual for the installation of the Deskjet printer?

    Any guidance would be appreciated. I look forward to your responses.

    Thank you!

    In theory, if you give your new network (router) namesake exact network (SSID), type of encryption (WPA, WPA2, etc.) and password for the printer should re - connect without problem.  If none of this is even the slightest different you will need to re-install the printer.

    If you use Windows, you will need to go to start > all programs > HP > [your printer model] > IP update.  If you use a Mac, of course, there will be no such problems.

  • How to set a static IP address for deskjet 6940dt

    I have two laptop computers HP, have all two WIN7, that keep the IP address for my printer 6940dt, each time power to the router failure.  I have a desktop PC connected to a router NetGear and RCA modem connected to Comcast cable internet.  I have also an other desktop computer that connects wireless through the router... but this office never loses the printer IP address and I can't understand why it isn't and my laptop.

    I've had fellow at the computer club senior Center tell me that I need to set a static IP address to the laptops to connect.  I don't know how and I need someone to explain in a language I can understand, like real basic.  I searched the internet, but the things that I found were very complicated to understand.

    Can someone help me?

    Oops, sorry, I forgot that yours is a wired network printer only.

    You are on the right track - just go where you were and follow my directions - it all works even with cable as it wireless.

  • Need help setting up WebUI for the Wireless Gateway

    I have problem installing a Web UI for my demo project.

    I just do temperature is a simple application of WSN on a node of thermocouple WSN-3121 and it logging on a RT NI 9792 wireless gateway.

    Then, I wanted to create a web user interface and display whats in the user interface of the gateway - see the project.

    SO I'm stuck with the web INTERFACE coming.  I tried to read as much as I can but I still don't know what I'm doing wrong.

    As far as I see it, I need to create a web service in the construction for my gateway specifications and place the gateway_main.vi like the vi to use.  Then build and deployment.  Once it happened, and I run the vi on the bridge, I created a Web user interface as shown in the picture, where it counts the the gateway web service using 192.168.0.16:8080 - that works very well.

    When I run the Web interface, it is just and expires.

    I am using LAbview 2010.  Help, please.

    Hello markza,

    Your approach using the Web user interface designer and understanding its use case is quite accurate, the question lies in the web service, you have deployed. The VI you build as web service, which is gateway_main.vi, while loops inside and so cannot be used as a web service. The reason for the timeout is that your user interface Builder application calls the web service LV2010 and is stuck there for waiting time loops to complete. Also, the data type of cluster is not supported in the user Web interface Builder, so you'd have to break up from the entrance of the time of picking for the node wireless in two separate digital inputs.

    I recommend creating a Subvi out of your code inside of the while loop inside gateway_main.vi. The Subvi must have two digital inputs to replace the cluster (as mentioned above) and do not have one of the Boolean inputs Start or Stop. Output would remain the same, that is, two doubles and a Boolean value.

    I would like to know if this is useful and if you have any other questions.

    Thank you!

  • Cannot connect wireless Deskjet 6988

    I have a new HP Pavilion Elite d5100t running Vista Home Premium (64-bit) SP1.  I'm also using Norton Internet Security.  The PC is connected to a, router/ADSL modem Netgear DGN2000 Wrieless - N.  I can not get my DJ6988 to a wireless connection.  First I tried the Secure Easy Setup with WPS buttons, but it does not work.  The router has indicated that no device was found and kept flashing the led on the printer wireless and network light never came.  I had the same result, even with Norton firewall disabled.

    Then I tried the instructions in the guide of the network for the configuration of the printer for a software firewall.  I've disabled the firewall and connected the printer with the Ethernet cable connected to the printer EWS.  I gave the printer static IP address and then the value as the intellectual property as a trust in the firewall site.  I then started the installation of printer software.  The facility found the wired connection and I followed the instructions to establish a wireless connection.  After removing the cable, Setup finds the printer wireless and finished with all what it seems to be ok.  However, a test page does not print and the light of network on the printer never stopped flashing.

    I went in the printer properties in Control Panel and manually entered the IP address and that did not help.  Also, I went into the router and reserved IP address using the MAC and host name in the report to the printer.  That does not help either.  I don't know what else to do.

    I solved my problem.  It was my fault that I have followed the instructions in the manual of the printer and not the manual of the router.  What I've done I hit the button on my router setup and then click the printer button.  I knew not who hits the button on the router generates a new SSID (why, I don't know).  The right way to do it for my Netgear router is to connect to the router (in Internet Explorer) and run the installer in this way.  When do so through the connection of the router it keeps the network settings.  My printer works fine wirelessly now.
