Two WPSM54G

Guys,

I searched this forum and I'm afraid that my conclusion is just... Is it not possible to have two WPSM54G print server at the same time?

I had one with a Brother HL-2030 hung on it and was very happy with it, especially after help in this forum to get the right configuration. I just bought a second to plug a second printer, an Epson Stylus Photo RX585 and everything that startgs goes wrong...

I can't print on both at the same time, unless I go through the whole process of configuratiun...

Even when I see two printers in the Printers list, I can't change the default printer to the one I want...

I can't configure the Epson scan utility to recognize the printer...

I couldn't even imagine this... but coult would it be possible that youn cannot have two peripheral WPSM54G on the network working together?

JF

OK, after a lot of searching this forum and try different things, I got it to work, sort of...

What I did:

1 configure the WPSM54G with the Epson Stylus (who was to be bidirectional use the scanner) be the one sent by the Linksys print server software; I initially could not find the Epson scanner utility, but then I discovered that I had to 'connect' to the printer in the Linksys Print Server utility and then it works

2. place the second WPSM54G, with the Brother HL-2030 hung about, using dialog boxes add printer, using a TCP/IP port and the mode of the LPR, actually without passing by the Linksys Print Server utility

It works almost OK, and I have two questions:

(a) the printer configured manually without using the Linksys Print Server utility sometimes displays a blank page. This was resolved by power cycling the WPSM54G, but it's a pain...

(b) I can't select a different default printer from the one used by the server print (Epson) Linksys utility. whenever I'm trying to choose the brother as the default printer, the Linksys Print Server utility seems to 'pre-empt' and reallocates its own printer as default printer... Also a pain...

  • Does not print WPSM54G and Vista for HP Deskjet 5150

    At the risk of opening an old discussion, I couldn't find the answer in the archives here, but most son end in early 2008 so I guess that the problem has been resolved.  I have a Dell Studio 1737 with Vista (32 bit), using a print server WPSM54G with a WRT54GS router. It will not print to a HP Deskjet 5150.  It allows to print if I connect to the USB port directly to my laptop, so it should not be the driver.

    My two posts of print job to the printer via the print server - they are XP based.  Both work wireless is connected.  It is unlikely that it is the router or the print server.

    When you install the software on the laptop using the Linksys CD it gives a long message "Did not find the printer driver on your system" and so on.  I tried all suggestions for example by using the original CD, downloading the driver from the site HP, removing all the drivers, and restarting.  He continues to stop at this message.

    I tried the lines of support tech for more than 6 hours now and have had no luck, they just put me in remote mode and check the router and then print server settings promising recalled.  They have on occasion but no help.  Also charged me $ 39 because they needed to check the IP address of the router that is no longer under warranty.  I'm happy to pay money if this would solve the problem, but it didn't.  Is there a solution out there like a firmware update or installation CD update or something to make the installation work with Vista?

    Thank you for your patience.

    Well I got it working.  Perservance is paying off.  I discovered the page Web for updates and drivers for linksys appears differently on my laptop, it does on my desk.  In particular, the laptop didn't poster not the option update firmware and download the installation software.  On my desktop, I noticed that she had these options.  When I checked the release notes for the firmware version 1017, he says that it adds the LPR Protocol among others.  I remember in your instructions, he said to put to LPR.  I downloaded the new firmware for the print server and now the portable print very well.

    Strange symptom if and misleading when he says the driver is not compatible, but it was a firmware issue.  In the meantime my installation CD not working anymore, but at least now I know I can download it from the Web site on my desktop.

    No idea why it will not display the firmware upgrade option on my laptop?  I put all the advanced settings of the internet even under my desk.

    Thanks again for your help.  Hopefully my discovery on the firmware to help someone else.

  • How can I have two desktops on iCloud sync at the same time, without having duplicate files?

    Hi all

    I have two computers, a MacBook Pro and iMac. I use the new feature for Sierra macOS, which allows me to continually synchronize my office on iCloud. I welcome the Office on my iMac be synchronized on the cloud. Now, I would have the exact same office on my MacBook Pro. I tried many ways, including by dragging files to iCloud Drive on my desktop, but the synchronization does not work. If I enable syncing on my MacBook Pro, I know that I have duplicate files.

    With this method, I would like to: whenever I have add a file on my desktop iMac computer, it shows up on my MacBook Pro Office without the need for me to keep about iCloud road opening.

    Thanks for reading this.

    Ethan

    If you enable sync on the MacBook Pro, it should not be duplicates.  What makes you think it?

  • Number of matches between two columns

    Column1 Column2
    5 5
    5 2
    5 5
    4 3
    4 4
    Football match
    3

    I basically you want to compare two columns and count matches in the corresponding lines. I tried using the following formula:

    SUMPRODUCT (--($column1=$column2))

    ... but it doesn't work! Any suggestion?

    Tiago,

    It seems you are trying to use array formulas (maybe since excel?) who do not work in number.

    Here's how I would solve this problem:

    Make sure that the table where data is named 'Data' (as shown, or change the table name references to match your table name)

    Add a new column (C)

    C2 = AND (A2 = B2, A2≠ "")

    It's shorthand dethrone select cell C2, then type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

    = AND(A2=B2, A2≠"")

    Select cell C2, copy

    Select cells C2 at the end of the C column, paste

    the formula say to check to see if the cell in column A is NOT empty, and is equal to the cel in column B

    Now in the summary table (single cell table):

    A1 = COUNTIF (Data::C, TRUE)

  • Conditional highlighting with checkbox in the two cells by the numbers

    I have two columns.

    Check boxes, the other contains text.

    I want to apply formatting conditional for text, based on the checkbox (true/false) value.

    Hi Bebaj,

    Add another column (C in this example). You can hide C when everything works.

    Formula in C2 (fill down)

    = IF(A2,B2,"")

    A tick in a check box inserts the value of B in C, another "" (NULL)

    Conditional highlighting in column B

    Kind regards

  • Does anyone know how to merge two workseets number for printing?

    How can I combine two spreadsheets in numbers for printing?

    Hi jj,

    I assume that you mean that you have a single document, which contains two worksheets, and that each sheet contains one table (only?).

    What do you mean by "merge two (booklets)?

    You mean you wan to place Tables of two leaves on a single sheet (this sheet would contain then both tables).

    Or do you mean you want to place all data on the two tables into a single table on one sheet?

    Or do you mean something different to both of these descriptions?

    Kind regards

  • Starts two windows shows

    After you have installed windows on my Macbook Pro 13 "2015, installing bootcamp is not delete my iso installation of windows partition drive.

    When I press 'option' to choose which partition to start in the start menu, there is a Macintosh disk which is my os x and partition of two windows.

    The first is the windows operating system and the other opens just the installation.

    How can I remove the installation partition and give space on the windows partition?

    Thank you!

    Also, when installing windows 10, I pressed accidentally the "option" key after the installation finishes (it goes then to the start menu) and then I select the windows partition to boot windows. I don't know if that will cause a problem like that or not.

    Problem solved,

    After the start under os x, the installation of windows partition is removed.

  • My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also backed u

    My computer with two hard drives and 2 starting systems has the car crash in the solid state. When I got the new drive and tried to restore from time capsule, I lost some data. How can I see what backups are on the time capsule? My laptop is also saved to the time capsule. Everything is in 'Data' when I look through the Airport utility. I think that the information that I've lost are still there since I was a Capsule 3 to.

    Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.

    The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.

    Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...

    You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?

    By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?

    Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.

  • Two-factor authentication

    On my iMac after Sierra was an option to unlock with Apple Watch (security preferences panel). I click it and it says I need to disable the verification of two factor and enable two-factor authentication. Fine.

    Did. Now the option to activate Apple Watch unlock on the mac has disappeared.

    It works on my other Mac but not the iMac.

    Also in the preferences to iCloud account, then on devices, I see that my Apple Watch can be used to receive the codes!

    Someone knows how to fix these?

    Tried to run iCloud power switch, disconnect the watch and repair, restart everything.

    Just to be clear, the Mac is capable of auto unlock, it's an iMac end of 2015 and system report confirms it is compatible.

    The apple support page also suggests watches should be able to receive the codes:

  • Merge two e-mail accounts

    I have a few email addresses Yahoo and SBC Global, I'm able to check in a single mailbox on yahoo.com, while being able to select in each address when you compose an email.

    However, I'm unable to understand how to configure my Apple Mail account to reflect my yahoo.com account. Currently in Apple Mail, I have a separate account of the SBC Global and a separate account of Yahoo. I implemented this way because it was the only way I knew to be able to select different e-mail addresses when you are composing an email. The problem with this configuration is the number of unread emails is doubled due to them being two identical mailboxes.

    If possible, I would like to combine/merge the mailboxes while being able to have two e-mail addresses to select when you compose an email.

    I hope that what I am asking is logical and someone out there will be a solution because I know that I'm not the only person using several e-mail on the same Yahoo account alias.

    Thank you, in advance, for any help you are able to provide.

    Chris

    Hello and welcome to Apple support communities, OMMBoy.

    If I understand your post right, you are wanting to be able to set up your Yahoo/SBC Global account once in post, rather than implement them separately, but still be able to choose one or the other when you dial an outgoing message. I know from personal experience, how practical is to be able to choose the account that come from your emails, so I'm happy to help you find a solution for this today!

    It is not a way to 'merge' mail accounts in the mail that you mentioned, but hopefully that won't matter because it seems that these two accounts are already merged on the side server. That you would do so first remove one of these mail e-mail accounts so that only rest. It shouldn't make a difference, that you decide to keep. You can find steps on how to remove one of these email accounts in Mail for Mac: Configure Mail with your email accounts, specifically this section:

    Delete an account

    When you delete a mail e-mail account, messages from the account are deleted and are no longer available on your Mac. The copies of the messages remain on the mail server account and are still available (from webmail, for example).

    Important: If you are not sure if you want to keep the messages are still on the mail server, move or copy them to a mailbox stored on your Mac (the mailbox appears in the section on my Mac in the mail sidebar) before deleting the account in Mail.

    1. Choose Mail > Preferences, and click accounts.

    2. Select an account, then click on the button Delete .

      Note: If the account is used by other applications on your Mac, you are prompted to delete the account in Internet accounts system preferences. Click the button to open an Internet account, and then clear the box e-mail for the account. To stop using the account in all applications, make sure that the account is selected, and then click the button Delete .

    Once you have one of these e-mail accounts deleted, you will follow the steps of Mail (Yosemite): use e-mail alias, to add the address to remove as an alias. Don't worry that the article shows "Yosemite", the steps are the same for Sierra.

    Howdy Celeste Jones,

    From your post it seems that you have a few cases of Installer.app running on your Mac.  You have installed previously, and you still see the installers running on your Dock?  If so, simply complete the installation process or to leave the installers.  If not, then let's go and just restart your computer in safe mode and restart normally to see if the problem persists:
