• HP Deskjet 2540: help! Cannot connect to the home network wireless HP 2540.

  So, I'm trying to connect my new wireless printer to my home network.  Yay!  I move into the 21st century!   Not so fast, Buster!

  Here's the run down:

  I ran the installation CD, connected to a USB port when told to find my SSID, entered my password, he did his thing and then he said that I had the wrong password.  Perhaps. Ok.  Tried again with the same results.    Connected on the router (gateway of Technicolor), checked the password.  Nope, it did ' t change.  Tried again, and this time, I hit the button troubleshooting when he told me that I had the wrong password.

  I followed the guide that he d/l would be after the presentation of the error report.  Run the test of wireless network from the buttons on the printer and it says "the WPA security password configured on your HP printer is not your wireless router setting."  I assure you, expensive printer, I have not.

  Jumped on the router page configuration when you are prompted by the guide troubleshooting and ensured that MAC filtering has been set to 'allow all' which, according to the manual of the router assures me, will allow all devices to connect.  Made sure that the 2 GHz range was alive and Kickin ' and that DHCP is enabled in the IPv4 & 6 tabs.  I even reset the router as the troubleshooting guide said.  Ran the test report yet, not logged in.  It is then the troubleshooting guide abandoned and directed me here.

  But then I noticed in the manual of the printer there is a WPS function available!  WPS!  It's must be!   Pressed the button wireless to the printer for 5 seconds to put in WPS mode, press the button on the router... not good.  I noticed that on top of one of the many reports of tests wireless network there is a WPS PIN which was good for 5 minutes.  Got a new a new wireless network test report, went into the router WPS customer PIN login page, entered it... no good.  I tried again with the page, open and ready to go, just in case I took longer than 5 minutes.  Still not good.

  So I thought I would at least give the option 'WiFiDirect' to try printing.  I printed the page "Use printer wireless without a router" by pressing the direct wireless for about 5 seconds, found the printer in the WiFI networks and entered the password to 8 digits when he asked for the WPA key.  I don't remember if he said it was the wrong key or what, but now it just says: unable to connect to the network.

  All the test reports diagnostic results show the wireless on and functional.  Connectivity has not been executed, the SSID was found with no other network corresponding to my network name, with 12 other networks detected.  The settings part was not run and Security (in bold and in italics as in the report) down (in the report) since, I guess, he thinks that I have the wrong password.  Who, once more, I assure you that I am not.

  So my question is basically this: now what?

  Well, I told you a hundred times... Gateway devices are terrible for connectivity and wireless performance.   My suggestion is for connect you to put this bridge in full bridge mode device and buy a router of high quality that you have full control over and you.   I gave everything but peripheral gateway troubleshooting.

  I don't think it's a driver problem, because VMware Workstation - like any other Windows application - takes advantage of Windows features for networking and does not separate NETWORK interface drivers but only services that use default API.

  Have you tried to completely uninstall VMware Workstation (using the command line option / clean ) before installing another version? And have you installed using 'Run as Administrator' to make sure that it is not a permission problem. You can also read

• Problem adding network printers; received this message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» »

  Hello

  I have a Windows XP pro (Lenovo) that I recently ran the recovery and returned to certain configurations of 1.5 years. Now I can't add a network printer and get always the message error «Windows cannot connect to the printer or the name of the printer...» ». I ping the printer and all on my network can add these printers, it's just that a machine that fails to add network printers.

  I disabled the firewall, but were still unable to add the printer. Then I found some difficulties to register for a similar problem, but they were not useful... It really becomes a big headache, especially Windows restore does not work...

  I strongly suspect that 1.5 years, someone has renamed the printer.  Use Windows Explorer to navigate to the print server through My Network Places and see what it's callednow .  Otherwise, you could ask your network/system administrator.  You should know...

  Hello

  Based on this and that is not a printer ready network. Has a network card?
  Another thing, you need to consider: HP does NOT support Windows 7 (for her) so you have to get this first.

  Good luck.

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied.

  From: Steve

  Desperately, I try to print from my laptop Windows Vista Home Premium to a shared printer on my home wireless network.  The shared printer is connected to a XP Home machine.  This machine is wired (via a LAN cable) to the wireless router.  I can 'see' the printer that I want to use but trying to to connect to it. I get the error message "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied. "I would be grateful for any help.

  Kind regards.

  -Steve

  From: Alan Morris [MSFT]

  Since the XP machine is HOME, I don't think that the permissions dialog box is accessible.

  Run the XP network sharing wizard again and see if it affects safety correctly on sharing.

  Is the printer you share one that has drivers provided with Windows XP?

  In the meantime we will at least get the printer works for you.

  Create a local printer on Windows Vista; Creation of a Local Port in the form \\XPMACHINE\Printsharename (this will send the files by using the redirector instead of the RPC service).  Install the Windows Vista driver for the device.

  You can print because print$ access is required for printer drivers.

• Vista problem: "failed to connect to the windows service, Windows cannot connect to the system event.

  I have reported this problem on my PC at home that connects to the internet. My laptop runs Vista Home Premium and I can't connect to the internet. I took my laptop on a trip, tried to connect to the wireless network that was free to the place we are. Could not connect, and after this initial test, the following is displayed after the start of "failed to connect to the Windows Service, Windows cannot connect to the system event notification service. This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system. As administratvie user, you can view the system event log to see why the service did not respond. "(have no idea how or what it means) when I go to the task bar you want to connect to a network, it is said:" the dependency service or group could not start"and if I go ahead and press"connect to a network"it says it can't find.  I search for computers on the network (who I'm sitting next to) and then try to diagnose the problem and it cannot. I have limited knowledge of this type of problem. Anyone have this problem and how to fix it?

  Original title: printer HP LaserJet 4050 of PCL6 compatible with Windows 7?

  I have a desktop windows xp pro (SP3 5.1.2600) and you have a printer HP LaserJet 4050 PCL6.  The printer works fine connected to the desktop computer with a parallel port.  I'm trying to share the printer on my home network so that Win 7 (6.1.7601 SP1) laptops can use its printing features.  Please help.

  First I tried to add it with \\hostname\printername that returned this error: windows cannot connect to the printer: operation failed with error 0x000004f1.

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

  A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

  A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

  Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

  Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

  Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

  How connect to this printer?

  Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

  Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

  Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

• Wireless network adapter cannot connect to the wireless network

  When I start my PC HP TouchSmart it does not recognize my wireless network.  It says wireless network adapter cannot connect to the wireless network and the details said network adapter "Local network connection * 16 ' does not work properly. The strange thing is that if I leave my computer for a few minutes, then restart it twice, it recognizes the network and starts working. Frustrating is that I have to do this everytime I turn on my computer.  It takes at least 10 minutes of starting and restarting my computer before it will recognize my wireless network.   Any help?

• Add Printer__ Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Laptops have just loaded with Windows 7 Pro on my domain. Try to load printers to a print server. Print server running Windows 2003 R2.

  When I log in with a user profile, I go to devices and printers------click Add a printer-network printer select------I see a list of printers on the print server - choose the printer that I want to load------asked if I have confidence in this printer - click install drver------opens window files Coping - green bar moves as if it were loading drivers------then just before you get to the window asking if you want to make a default printer. open window that says - Connect Add Printer (X RED) for printer Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied

  Changes to device settings to allow the user load the drivers. Check the security access (everyone has permissions) for this printer on the print server.

  Disable UAC control on the laptop. Group Policy has changed restrictions point and print.

  But this same user can log on to another computer on the network, which has loaded XP Pro and can load the same printers that are denied with windows 7 pro

  As a network administrator, I can log on to laptop computers and load A B and C printers.

  So I can log on as a user and then I can load A B and C printers, but as a user I want printer D I get the same message as above.

  Thank you in advace for your help

  This is the solution I received and seems to work.

  You have to go into the local group policy on Windows 7 computers, and not on the server.

  Go to the Group Policy:

• New dv - 6033cl 6 connects to the home network.

  I just bought this laptop yesterday. During the initial installation, he finds my home network easily and worked well. Last night, it stop working. He sees the network, but does not connect.

  Computer is Win 7 Home Premium, 64-bit.

  Can I wireless home from my phone, so it CAN connect.

  I updated my firmware to the router (Linksys WRT150N), strengthened the WPA2-Personal security and restarted the router. Nothing helps.

  I have three other computers running Windows 7 here (2 are HP, it's a Sony) and a Sony Vista - all these are perfectly connected to the home network.

  I'm frustrated - ideas? Thank you very much for your help!

  I have trouble with my router channels too, and which did not help. I was kind of beat my head against the wall last night...

  You know what finally worked? I turned off the Bluetooth. As soon as that blew up, the wireless immediately (and automatically) hooked up to my home network. Crazy, isn't it?

  I really appreciate all the help and advice ~ thank you for your time!
