  Thank you access the Forums from HP Support for extra support! I see that you want to configure the printer on Mac. I will do my best to help you with this problem.

  The printer software is installed by the Apple updates. You should be able to simply connect the printer to the Mac through a USB cable and the Mac should automatically install the drivers for you.

  If not, then follow the steps in this document to install the printer: install a printer Mac driver by using Apple Software Update.

• Wireless laptop cannot connect to Photosmart C5180 printer on network

  I recently got a new computer, which is the main connection to our home network.  We have a laptop and a Photosmart C5180 printer.  I can't get the wireless laptop to connect to the printer, even though I have the shared printer on the pc.  I have the printer connected to the pc via a USB cable.

  I see the printer shared and available on the laptop, but get the error message when you try to print.

  Does anyone know what I'm missing that will allow me to print from wireless laptop?  It worked until I'm the new pc, so I know I'm missing something.  Should the laptop have both installed printer software/drivers?

  Yes, the printer directly connected to a router with an Ethernet cable will be the simplest solution.

  Yes, all computers will be able to access the printer on the network as long as they are connected to the same router (Ethernet or wireless, regardless).

  He shared from the computer and the printer connected to a computer with a USB cable are not a real printer on a network.  This creates what is essentially a print server and the computer with the USB connection manages the interaction of this printer with all the devices on the network.

  A USB connected printer sharing can be done, but it's a lot more work that the printer is connected to the router with an Ethernet cable.

  It's really a lot more work to set up the printer with a printer shared over a network connection USB method true when it comes to do this with Windows 7.

  Windows XP made it incredibly simple, but he was not very secure on a network.  With Windows XP, all you had to do was to share the printer, and then install it on another computer.

  With Windows 7 on both computers, you must configure a homegroup, enable file sharing and printers (disabled by default), share the printer and install the printer on the computer client / remote.  In addition, this method will require the host to be on anytime for remote printing machines.

  The printer is connected to the router with a Ethernet means that the functionality of the printer depends solely on the router being on (most are on 24/7).  Computers will print regardless of the other computer either on or off.  There should be a shorter time in the impression that a computer is responsible for printing rather than two computers.

  Again, I will be more than happy to help you set up with the method USB shared with two Windows 7 computers if that's what you want.  You find that it is much easier to use the Ethernet connected method to be simpler and more efficient to print well.

  If you want, here's a little more information from Microsoft on sharing a printer between two units of Windows 7.

  Setting up a homegroup

  Activate the file & printer sharingand sharing the printer on a Windows 7 computer

  As long as the printer & file sharing is enabled and two Windows 7 computers are in the same group of residential, you should be able to use the USB share method.  Without these two two options being Setup, it simply does not work with two Windows 7 systems.

• WRT120N Wireless laptop connected to the router, but does not connect to internet

  I have a HughesNet HN9000 modem connected to a Linksys WRT120N router. I have two desktop computers, both running XP Home, connected to the router via ethernet .5e cables and work perfectly. I have a laptop running Vista Home Premium, I am trying to connect to the internet via the internal wireless card. According to me, the laptop connects with the wireless router, as it connects but says 'Local only' - it won't let me access the router IP/control panel. I tried to reset the router / modem as well as the parameters of the laptop, but I keep getting the same question.

  If I connect the laptop and the port #3 on the router via a cable .5e I can browse the Internet. But I need to be able to use the laptop throughout the House so electrician is not an option.

  I found this article which directed me to this download , which worked. If your help is most needed. Thanks anyway.

• Installation failed for HP Photosmart C6180 wireless for my laptop HP Pavilion (window Vista Home Premium) 64-bit

  Hello

  I have HP Photosmart C6180 all-in-One printer, that works well with my other Compaq Presario SR2001NX desktop (Window XP) wired without any problem.
  But after I bought the new laptop about a month ago, I tried to install this printer on my wireless laptop.
  I downloaded HP driver for vista 64-bit, which is not always in the final phase of installation showing big 'X' mark on the screen of the window.
  Several chatting online with HP technician did not work at all, and I couldn't connect the printer with that laptop apparently more up-to-date, which is quite frustrating.
  I know how to connect the printer wireless with router. The printer screen shows it is correctly connected to the Wi - Fi network.

  I wonder if Microsoft already knows this kind of installation problems.

  It seems that Windows does not install automatic blower for this printer. Most of the HP printers is listed on the function of automatic installation of the window, but this printer is not included.

  Hello Itnntkim,

  Thanks for posting of Microsoft Answers.

  I checked on the compatibility of Windows Vista site and this printer is compatible with the 64-bit system, but it shows there is a required download for the drivers. I've included here the compatibility site.

  Make sure that you have all the updated drivers for the HP Photosmart C6180 all-in-One printer.
  The website below is for drivers for this model for Windows Vista 64-bit system.

  We have downloaded the drivers, then uninstall the drivers you currently have. And then update with the new drivers.  If when you do that, you still get an error, please answer with the exact error message so that we can continue to troubleshoot with you.

• When I try to connect with my wireless laptop will connect only to Local access. If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

  VIsta - Local access only

  HI -.
  I recently moved.   I use the same router from my old apartment and I had no problem connection in the past.   Since I moved I have a new Time Warner modem (Cisco) and the modem works fine.

  The router also works very well I'm able to connect with my iPhone and IPad without any problem.

  But when I try to connect with my wireless laptop, it will only connect to Local access.    If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

  It's a Dell Studio 15 with Vista.

  The computer is able to connect to wifi to other places without any problem, but for some reason that I can't connect home.   I tried to reset the modem and the router several times, but that did not help.   I tried the option repair & diagnose several times but it doesn't work.

  I tried to look for other solutions online and tried to disable IPv6, and while it helped some and I was able to connect wireless, the computer ran so slowly that it didn't seem like a good solution.

  This has been very frustrating.   Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

  Hello Staciusa,

  Have you tried to change the wireless channel that your router is running at? There may be interference that could prevent the internet connection:

  Take a look at step 6 in this article that give more details about it:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/athome/Setup/wirelesstips.aspx

  If you need assistance to change the settings of the specific router, you will need to contact your router manufacturer or your internet service provider.

• I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection.

  I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection. It connects to other networks wifi very well with Internet access, is that the wireless in my house what it connects to. When I diagnose the problem, it says "Cannot communicate with DNS server (208.67.222.222)", and then under that it says: "languished network diagnostics remote hosts, but had not received a response." It connects to the Internet through an ethernet cable, but it is rather annoying pulling the cable autour. I currently have Windows Vista Home Premium. Thank you!

• Laptop will NOT connect wireless, my drivers ARE up to date

  My Windows Vista laptop, USED to connect to my router wireless very well. Now it won't, it doesn't even recognize that a network is available. I looked for answers and have updated all my drivers on windows suggested and still not connect wireless. My blackberry to connect to my router very well... Help, please!

  Hello

  Turn off the router and the Modem - wait 3 minutes and reverse. Restart the computer.

  Some systems have a power switch on the front or side. If a laptp or a PC that uses embedded
  WiFi check/configuration settings (BIOS/CMOS) as you start - often F2 then warning screen - select-
  boar without wireless/WiFi. If the PC of a kitchen separated and system maps turned OFF and try to remove and
  replacement of the card - in fact remove - do not just tight.

  A manual update or re - stall your drivers by using these methods, do not use only the driver update as
  You must refresh the batteries of any driver.

  Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon. Use a wire or download drivers
  on another computer and use removable media to transfer to your system.
   
  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
  manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

  Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
  updated drivers.

  I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
  are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

• Wireless printing for laptop with C4580 connected to a MAC.

  Hi people from HP,.

  I just want to know if it is possible to what I would do.

  My C4580 is connected to my iMac with a USB key.  The iMac is connected to the internet via a wireless router.  I recently bought my daughter a laptop HP Pavilion Entertainment PC with Windows Vista Home Premium (64-bit), including wireless.  My daughter connects to the internet through the router wireless set up with a SSID and WEP key.  Currently, I don't have a specific network between two computers.  What I want to do is set up so that my daughter can print wireless from his laptop to the C4580 without disconnecting the iMac.  I need to set up a home network and share the printer?  Can the laptop to send data direct wireless to the printer without losing internet or the iMac lose connection to printer?  Etc, etc, etc...

  Thanks for the help.

  Hello Wi-Fi-Guy,

  Then as you said has given me an idea.  Basically, I have just entered the configuration of the printer on my iMac and entered the WEP key in the printer. So I did it with the USB connection. Once I added the printer to the laptop of my daughter... She now prints a charm are two computers.

  Thank you people!

• My mouse wireless guard saying lost connection.  I thought that it may need a new Bluetooth card.  An idea of the cost if I do it?

  My mouse wireless guard saying "lost connection".  It takes time for it to reconnect.  Wireless keyboard is OK.  Apple store said that it may need a new Bluetooth "card."  Any idea the cost if necessary.   I tried a new mouse, with the same results.  Having to use a "wired" mouse now taking a much-needed port on my iMac.

  I return to the store and get a better answer. Material, of course, could be the problem. As far as I know, there is no such 'map '.

  Reset the PRAM and SMC... can't hurt, might help.

• WRT110 will connect everything except wireless laptop XP

  I have a WRT110 Rangeplus Wireless Router.  It connects 3 desktops (XP and VISTA) and a printer via 4 plugged the ethernet cables.  It connects (VISTA) Compaq laptop, a computer eMachines laptop (Vista), a Wii and 2 Tivos with wireless.  This is the 4 wireless Wi-wired connections and 5 that work perfectly.  My laptop Compaq V2030US XP (which worked well with my three-year old wireless network) connects very well with a cable, but wireless it will only connect to the router.  It will ping the router correctly, but do not connect to the rest of my network, internet or ping any place beyond the router.  I have disabled the firewall on the laptop, reset the cable modem, reset the router, all other wireless devices disconnected, updated the firmware on the router, and have the latest software and drivers for the card Intel Proset 2200BG wireless.  Any suggestions before I try another router manufacturer?

  After a few hours more work, I discovered that my Intel Pro Wireless adapter tries to connect to my network at 192.168.2.1 instead of 192.168.1.1.  I have therefore added the correct IP address to my properties and VOILA! It's trendy!

• Windows Vista Home Basic Edition, Acer laptop wireless, Linksys router and connect Lexmark X 9350 wireless network.

  I'm tired... I tried everything I can think of, as well as everything I can find online in order to connect my printer Lexmark X 9350 WiFi for my Acer laptop which is connected to my home network wireless via my linksys router. At the same time, the printer has been set up through my existing wireless network and was working properly. (FOR A SINGLE DAY!) Then I got the bright idea to installNorton Anti Virus Security. Since then, my printer stopped working through the wireless network. It works as a stand-alone Copier and fax machine, but nothing of the printer.  I contacted Lexmark via online support, but their suggestions did not work or were so confusing that it would take a computer technology to interpret the instructions to correct the problem. I learned more about the Wi - Fi networks and computer by trial and error, I should be able to re - connect my printer the eyes bandaged.  Help, please... This problem is ongoing for weeks. Thank you so much in advance.

  Just a thought, as you say it started with Norton check his firewall exceptions:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

  Have a read of the link above re Vista file and printer sharing.

  Permissions/Share info is there as well.

  If you use Norton, make that file and printer sharing is enabled in THE Firewall (or LAN enabled, depending on how their Exceptions are formulated in their firewall)

  See you soon.
