• HP Officejet 6600 print wireless help

  Attempt to try to solve my HP Officejet 6600 to print wirelessly on my network and I tried just about everything I could think of (including the rattling of my printer on the network to see if they are on the same network, they are) and my printer still does not recognize any signal from my computer trying to get a print of my computer job. I have already confirmed that my printer working via a USB cable, but I wish I could put my printer to another room, connected to a power source and be able to print to it outside of my network, but not luck so far. Can someone help with this problem?

  My OS is Windows 7 Edition Home Premium SP1, if this is useful.

  Review of my last post...

  Wow, regardless of the Printer Spooler service has been, which seems to have done the trick. Also went and made a new WiFi printer (when the USB cable is installed), and it was labeled differently. Somewhere in one of the configuration menus had something on this subject (assuming it's a hostname?) It said HPB96E1W (HP Officejet 6600). It was also the name of the printer that appeared when I installed it as wireless under printers and faxes. When I did as just a USB connected printer, it appears just as "HP Officejet 6600". Maybe a problem of labelling or something to do with the Printer Spooler service? No idea honestly but the printer works now move it to another part of the House as long as it captures my wireless signal. This problem is completely resolved, and I have also 2 different connections to work with incase I ever spend my printer back near my computer. Thanks to all who have posted in this thread with ideas help, much appreciated. Moderators or anyone who may lock this thread if they wish. I'll post another thread one day if I have problems with the printer again.

• Can I connect my HP5580 to Airport Extreme and print wireless?

  I use a MBP early 2011, 2.2 g of 15 "and an Airport Extreme Wi - Fi system.  Can I use my HP5580 connected to my Airport Extreme USB, to print wireless?

  Thanks for your quick response.  I tried the procedure suggested you, but to no avail.   I then started to grope in the different sources of information and stumbled on this after having plugged the computer in Airport Extreme and cycling the unit you have recommended:

  If you are using OS X, go to Apple System Preferences > print & scan remove the printer selected by pressing-, then press on + to add a printer, select the printer even to add it.

  Once I did that, the HP C5580 will appear as connected via usb to an Airport Extreme and it prints like a champ!

  So, you support led me in the right direction - thanks again!

• Direct print wirelessly from iPad Pro w/o third-party app?

  I want from my iPad Pro laser-printing on a printer wireless to work. My corporate network, however, is not configured to allow wireless printing; I have to work around the network with a direct wireless printing. I know that a lot of printers don't support not this, but everyone I've studied requires a third-party printing application. I'm sure that it will work very well, but I don't trust the manufacturers of printers to continue to support these applications.

  Is there a printer wireless laser available that I can print without a wifi network, directly from the iPad without a third party app?

  Thank you!

  The printer you want to print unless on supports AirPrint, no, you would need an application.

  AirPrint allows to print from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support

• Need help with printing wireless and Air of printing

  I have a Xerox printer connected to an Airport Express station and I was able to print wireless from my Mac. I just replaced the Xerox with a Brother printer which has built in WiFi and Air feel, although I can't get anything to work. I entered my password WiFi network directly on the printer. The instructions had me download the drivers that I did and I download a wireless configuration program that asked more than about nothing if I already entered my password of the WiFi network of the printer.

  1. I do not remember how I already had the Xerox facility to print wireless from my Mac. I just plugged a USB cable directly linking the Airport Express to the Brother printer to bypass the built in Brother WiFi and use the Airport Express for internet.

  2. any thoughts on the use of construction vs the Airport Express WiFi?

  3. what should I do do AirPrinting work?

  Thank you.

  I use an Epson printer set up as AirPrint rather than as a brother, but I expect the two similar configurations.

  All I had to do first was installing the printer on my network domestic wi - fi.

  Then in system preferences > printers & Scanners

  Select Add printer

  

  Select the printer and set its AirPrint and add

  

  What printer model is Brother and in fact specifies that it is compatible AirPrint, or just a Wi - Fi connection?

• Printer wireless HP Envy 4520: can't see the instructions on the screen after downloading the required software

  I have an HP AMD A6-Series computer laptop with McCafee LiveSafe installed.  I am able to download and 'Run' the printer wireless driver software, but the instructions on the screen that are supposed to appear subsequently do not appear.

  I tried to disable the Virus protection part and the McCafee software software (thinking it can work as a pop up blocker), but to no avail... Please help!

  Hi @scgoldman2003,

  If the printer is already on the wireless network to which the computer is turned on, the computer must be able to see the printer wireless.

  Here is a support document which can help to ensure that the printer is ready for installation wireless - wireless printer Installation.

  If the wireless printer is not considered during installation this document can help - printer not found during Network Driver Setup (Windows).

  Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  Indeed, if this help you to achieve a solution please click the 'accept as Solution' and the 'thumbs up' buttons down below in this message.

• Slow printing with HP printer wireless

  I am trying to print on a HP B210a printer wireless (via Airport Extreme). The print dialog box indicates that I'm «connected to HPD8F456.local...» "but then it takes forever (sometimes days) for the actual document printing.

  After having reinstalled the latest HP drivers, the printer worked fine and then (possibly after a reboot or two) came back to the same problem, which seems to persist if my Mac is connected to the network via Ethernet or Airport.

  I'm using OS 10.5.8 with Aiport 5.6.1 and Airport Extreme utility 2nd gen.

  Open the Console in utilities & see if there are clues or from recurring when messages occurs.

• do not print to the printer wireless network computers connected to wifi

  Don't know if I'm in the right Forum but here goes.  I work in a dealership service department. I have 4 computers connected to our network. I just bought a pro m426fdw mfp laserjet 4 in 1 ad printer connected to our wifi system because there is no available ethernet jack to connect to the main network. Is there a way to allow my 4 computers send information about this printer wireless?

  If you connected to your wireless network, and then run a report of network printer and find the ip address of the wireless connection. If you're in the list use to load the printer using add it printer, the local printer, create a port and the menu drop-down, choose standard tcp/ip and then follow the instructions on the screen. You can also try to load the disc that came with the printer and see if it will find the printer and load it for you.

• 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?

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

  I would be happy to help with your HP Deskjet F4580, and wireless printing.  I can give you some suggestions that will hopefully solve the problem!

  If the printer wireless light blue which indicates its connected to the network.  I suggest to reconfigure the connection of the printer to the router to connect.  Once the printer is connected to the network then you can try to add the printer to the computer using the HP software.

  3 select your printer

  4. click on remove the device at the top of the window

  5. unplug the USB cable

  6 restart the computer

  To reconfigure the Deskjet F4580 Wireless:

  1. power cycle the printer and make sure that the USB cable is NOT connected at this time.

  2. install the HP software CD into the computer (if you don't have it click here: Deskjet F4580 Software)

  3. follow the installation of the software

  4. There should be an option to set up WiFi

  6. it will check the network environment and then ask you to connect the USB cable

  7. connect the printer via the USB port and follow the installation of WiFi program

  8. at the end it should ask you to remove the USB key and print a test page

  To add the printer to the laptop:

  1. install the HP software in the computer CD (if you don't have it click here: Deskjet F4580 Software)

  2. follow the installation of the software

  3. to find the printer on the wireless network

  4. follow the software configuration and test printing

  Hello Moor_lady, if you are using Windows 7, you can try to reset your printer wireless.

  Go to control panel of configuration, devices, and printer and in the menu bar above, select Add a printer in the lower option, select Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.

  There should be another window that shows all available printers to be added. See if your wireless network printer can be found. If so, select this option and continue the process.

  I don't see 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless as a capacity of connectivity for each model (6310 and 6310xi) of your printer. It is most likely the reason why your laptop is not 'see' it.

  There is a bluetooth wireless connectivity. It's a different way of connection that allows only printing capacity.

  You give more than the number of series in your laptop so I have no idea if bluetooth wireless is installed as a standard option. If it is not installed, you must buy a bluetooth dongle to wWalMart and set it up to use that feature.

• connect a printer wireless - need 2.4 ghz band of timecapsule

  Hello

  I am trying to print via WiFi wireless and my new printer says that it cannot connect to a 5 GHz signal.  It can only connect via 2.4 ghz.  Can configure my TimeCapsule for dual band?  While I can print wireless?

  I appreciate any help!  Thank you! Gracias!

  I am running the following:

  MacBook Pro (to 2011)

  El Capitan OSX 10.11

  TimeCapsule (to 2009)

  Printer: HP ENVY 4520

  Can configure my TimeCapsule for dual band?

  A Capsule of 2009 may or may not be a simultaneous dual-band model.  To find out what exactly what you might have, please look on the bottom of the time Capsule to locate the model number. Probably, it is integrated in the base of carpet of MOSS.

  The model number starts with an 'A' follow-up of four digits. Post back with number and we will continue.

• Satellite A210-171 cannot find the printer wireless

  I have very recently the satellite A210-171 and I am trying to connect a Lexmark x 4580 wireless printer. I installed the disc from the printer and everything is fine but when I come to print wireless computer can't find the printer.

  I have to do something for the computer other than the installation of the disk of the printer.

  Any help would be good.

  Is your wireless network setup correctly? I mean is your wireless laptop printer and your router configured properly and that you have a connection to the internet router trough wireless?

  Please give a better description that you have, if you have a wireless network with a router etc... and how is your configuration if your network is configured with dynamic IP addresses etc...

  Moreover, a little site here´s how to set up a wireless network:
