  You could settle on a previous installation. Try this:

  Go to your device manager and see if you have an old installation of the printer and right click Uninstall. You can also check if there is an old facility of the printer in Control Panel, printers, right click and delete it. Install the printer using the Add Printer Wizard. If it fails again with the same error, go to Device Manager right click on the name of your computer, click on "Scan for harware changes". He must find the printer and install it.

• My PS6520 wireless printer will not print when she goes to sleep, any idea? Thank you

  My PS6520 wireless printer will not print when she goes to sleep, any idea? Thank you

  Hi 464544,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I understand once that your HP Photosmart 6520 starts in mode "sleep" you cannot send a print job, it does not automatically standby upward.

  Please take a look here:

  The printer into standby mode after five minutes of inactivity to help reduce energy consumption. The sleep time can be changed from the control panel. The printer will wake up mode 'sleep' to print when a print job is sent to it.

  However, the auto power off feature must be disabled. Auto Power-Off turns off the printer completely, you must use the power button to turn the printer back on. You can change the setting Auto Power-Off from the control panel. configuration -Source

  Menu Configuration > other Menus > Eco > auto shut-off > off

  I hope this helps.

  Another idea is to unnstall HP software (using its uninstall program), then restart your PC.  Finally, download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.

  Meanwhile, keep your antivirus operational.  The installer configure it for you during the installation of the printer.

  I have a wireless printer and was working fine and then stopped printing, it will print only with the USB cord plugged. How can I make work with the USB cord.

  Hello

  What printer you are using?  What is you receive the exact error message?
  As many printers have specific installation instructions, I know that my HP needed me for not connect it first, and then click Print network opposed to USB settings then plugged into the USB port for installation and then just unplug the USB and WiFi, printing, once all installed and tested WiFi printing you can also print via USB , for me I could anyway.

  Just uninstall the driver and software and all re - install again.

  With printer (get the USB cable for the moment)

  To try this click Start > devices and printers > add a printer > add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer > it will search a little, but I hope that your printer will display in the main window, if it is to highlight and click Next and follow the prompts to install the driver.

• HP Officejet 4620 e-all-in-one stop wireless print whenever it is turned off

  My HP 4620 stop wireless print whenever it is turned off, although it is connected to the network (by the results of the test network wireless, pass & the quality of the signal is excellent).  No troubleshooting - HP Print & Scan Doctor work there is no help, I have to uninstall & reinstall the printer each time to be able to print wireless again.

  I use it on/on button to turn the printer off, don't disconnect not.

  Please help, or I need to return to the store, this is the third time!

  I also had the same issue and after a few game it seemed to have fixed so here's what I did... Hope this helps someone else.

  -My printer is connected to my wireless network.

  -On my computer that I'm connected to the printer through the IP address 192.168.1.153... (Yours may vary) in a browser

  * You can find the ip address printers on the control panel of the printers by pushing the wireless button and pushing the ok option 1, it should appear with the intensity of the signal and the ip address is at the bottom.

  -Once I was on the Printers page in my browser, I went to the tab network at the top.

  -Then to Internet Printing Protocol section (on the left in the advanced settings)

  -On my own PPI was already on, but the location was empty I put a '1' in the location box and then applied settings.

  -C' is the only thing that I changed and now my printer is asleep as always, but when I print something from my iphone, mac or pc it wakes up and prints as it is supposed to!

  BTW before I went to the printer via the browser. I changed layout sleep in 15 minutes via the Control Panel on the printer itself, don't know if it helped the issue or not because I still had the problem of sleep after I set the timer to 15 minutes instead of 5 min. But I solved my problem after performing the steps above!

  Also note that on the one hand some ppl on here say it's a network problem or a router! This is NOT the case I never even tried these roads and I solved my problem only by changing the setting of the printer! I have not set a static ip address or something like that!  The above steps is things ONLY I touched and my problem is SOLVED!

  Router: NETGEAR AT & T 7550 wireless router/dsl Modem

• How to connect a USB-wireless printer to a wireless network without PC

  Some HP printers do not have a Wizard of wireless configuration integrated into the façade to connect to a network.  These models install to a computer via a USB connection and the software then sends information wireless via the USB cable to the printer.  However, you do not always have a present computer and still need to connect these printers to a wireless network.  You can use a wireless, like an iPad device, to do this.  For the example below, I used an iPad and a printer Deskjet 3510.

  The first step is to make sure that your printer is aired at an (Ad Hoc) network.  To do this, turn on the printer and press the wireless or wireless Tower, and then in the Setup menu. Connect the iPad (or other wireless device) to the signal being broadcast by the printer wireless.

  Once the iPad is connected to the printer as long as a network connection, open the Web browser on the iPad.  Type 192.168.223.1 in the address bar and go to this site.  Printer status page should load and look like the picture below.

  

  Click the network at the top of the status page.  You can get a quick warning while being redirected to an HTTPS site.  Click Ok in the message box to continue.  When you click OK, you can get a warning about the identity of the server or the certificate.  Select the option that allows you to continue.  The wording can vary from a browser, but there should be an option to continue anyway.

  Network status page should now be loaded at this point.  Select Assistant wireless to start the installation of the wireless network and click Next.

  

  When then is selected, it must list the available wireless networks.  Select your network from the list and click Next.  When the network is selected, it should be noted.

  Enter the network password if necessary and click Next.

  

  A message should be received indicating the name and if security is enabled.  The message below which must indicate that the settings have been saved successfully.  If it indicates that the settings were saved successfully with an error, the configuration of the network is more than likely operation.  Click Ok at the bottom.

  

  After selecting OK, select status to check that the printer is connected successfully.  It may take a few minutes for light wireless to the printer to stop flashing.  Once it is a solid blue, the printer must be on the network and operation.

  

  Once this is over, then you will be able to reconnect to your wireless (wireless router) normal signal for internet access.  Now, the iPad and the printer are on the same home network.

  I hope this helps.

• LaserJet M1212nf: Problems setting up wireless printing

  I can set up to print from my laptop with a USB connection to the printer. I want to be able to print when away from my office, so have tried for 2 years, on and off, to get my printer to print wireless. I spent probably 10 + hours trying to get this set up. In the end, I always end up having to reinstall the printer with the same old USB connection.

  It drives me crazy. I'm a tech writer for a society of software and very savvy in computer science. However, my non-techie family have all managed to set up wireless printing at their home in 5 minutes or less with different brands of printers.

  Here are the steps that I followed, although I also tried many variations, like trying with my USB cable connected or disconnected.

  (1) uninstall the current installation of the printer (USB).

  (2) on the printer itself, make sure that the settings > network settings are the default values.

  (3) using the latest drivers and installation .exe from the HP site, start a new installation of the printer.

  (4) when you are prompted, select "wireless."

  RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and indicates that he is there any printer on the network. (Huh? Which network?)

  (5) try again once and this time select "Network Setup."

  RESULT: even if my firewall is turned OFF, search and says that it cannot detect a network.

  If the wireless installation requires a network, but network installation does not cause a network to install, I don't know where to go from here.

  (6) I also tried downloading and installing the ePrint utility, but when I'm at halfway through the installation, it tells me that it cannot find my printer.

  I am suspicious that my model M1212nf MFP may even not allow for wireless printing. Some info on the HP site says to check a particular button lights up to indicate that the printer is online. This light does not exist on my printer model. However, the parameters of the printer from my physics has parameters such as: "show IP address," etc., which would lead me to believe that it can work wireless.

  I have read all the help related HP printer, and there is nothing which explains, in simple language, what are the types of cables, I need to set up a network and the Wi - Fi connection, when to plug them in, what facilities to perform on the many Add - ons available, etc.. I don't know that it's a 5 minute process if there was just a good explanation in the help of the UP of how do. Assistance would be appreciated!

  Hello @SKYdiz,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand that you have had problems for the last 2 years and spent many hours trying to configure your HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf MFP for wireless printing. At this point I'll provide more information about it. First of all, are sitting you?

  Unfortunately, the HP LaserJet Pro M1212nf multifunction printer isn't a model wireless printer. The "nf" at the end of the name of the printer is the abbreviation of 'network, fax. Therefore, if your printer is not able to connect to your router wireless, it CAN connect with an ethernet cable.

  All you need to do is connect an ethernet cable to the back of your printer to your router. That all devices connected to this router even (whether through wireless or wired ethernet connections) would be able to 'see' your printer on the network and print it on your printer. For more information on configuring ethernet on your printer, please visit: Setup the printer to a wired network in Windows 7 for HP's LaserJet printers.

  Now, if an ethernet connection does not work in your specific network, HP makes other Laserjet models that do not use the wireless function. Here are two LaserJet who are black only, multifunction wireless units that resemble your current printer model: HP LaserJet MFP HP LaserJet MFP M225dw Pro and M127fw Pro.

  Please let me know if this clears up any confusion. If you have other questions or concerns, I'll be more than happy to help you. Happy new year!

• Connect a wireless printer anywhere, wired derivation convert, does not have radio, add WPA2 security.

  Update- good because when the wireless radio failed to convert a wired Ethernet printer to wireless technology, or if you want your printer to support greater security WPA2 wireless.

  Updated - connect to a hotel/motel/school dormitory may not work if the network uses Enterprise authentication requesting a user name and password on your computer.

  This article will try to explain how to connect your wireless devices, including printers, to a wireless network when you are away from home.  The problem when you're in a hotel, motel, room student or other areas is your computer connects fine, but your wireless printer, you have brought with you, has connection/security problems.  Other people/wireless devices can find the printer on an open network, connect you to the printer and start printing without reason just because 'they can do. "

  You'll need is a small wireless travel router.  TP-LINK TL-WR702N Wireless N Nano router or other router of trip is all you need.  The WR702N is available on eBay or Amazon for only $21.00, that's right, only $ 21.

  This device does not support the authentication of company systems because it cannot meet any username and password prompts these system as your computer can.  However, it will connect to a standard WPA SSID and your computer, but if you receive a browser for other questions page redirect, it won't work.

  It's a small powerful travel router which built in 5 modes of operation (more than your home router can do):

  1. AP mode
  2. Client mode
  3. Repeater mode
  4. Router mode
  5. Bridge mode

  The TP-WR702N information is found here:

  http://www.TP-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-WR702N#over

  To see the overview of applications see here first to understand:

  http://www.TP-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-WR702N#app

  I won't go into the details on how to configure these modes in the TP Link router Nano as the manual does a great job.  One thing you must remember is that you must assign a static IP address on your wired Ethernet connection of computers to access the Web interface internal of the Nano.  The Nano is configured with an Ethernet cable at any time.  It's security that the router that has DHCP disabled so if you connect to a network, you won't crash it with an IP address conflict.  The Nano is powered by a USB cable and comes with a USB AC adapter too.

  The IP address of the Nano is default 192.168.0.254.  Set your computers Ethernet Port, adapter not wireless, a static IP 192.168.0.1, 255.255.255.0 DNS address.  You have to find a way to do it yourself, but it is explained in the manual and on the web for the operating system of your computer.

  This leaves your wired Ethernet connection to a static IP address and your adapter wireless DHCP.  Don't forget to put your wired to DHCP if you need to use it later for a wired connection.  Connect the Ethernet cable from your computer to the router Nano.

  Set up your browser by going to 192.168.0.254 (Nano IP address) in the address bar and you'll get the username and password login screen.  The default username and password is admin/admin, you can change it if necessary.

  Set the Nano bridged mode:

  Other modes will be mentioned later but for now; Bridge mode will serve as this isolates and creates your own SSID private the hotel/motel/dorm room open wireless network SSID.  In Bridge Mode you entrance and connect to the Rangoon SSID (paraphrasing) AND set up your own small network with your own SSID and password.  Your SSID will be separated and protected through WPA2-AES security that you set up.   You will be able to go online normally fine, but all of your devices will now connect to your private SSID.

  Example:

  Hotel SSID: HILTON Hotel Paraphrase and password: GUEST

  Nano SSID: MYNETWORK Nano Paraphrase/password: HP5514

  With this information, the rest is easy.  You set your SSID private and password first, they you must find and connect to the SSID and password hotels.  Simply click on the SURVEY button and a list of all available networks will be displayed along with their MAC addresses.  Find the network SSID, you want to connect (bridge) too and click on "connect".  Information is entered automatically.  I suggest that you also edit your channel wireless on a fixed channel as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.

  Save your settings and you will be told to restart the router.  Follow the instructions and always restart the router after any changes take effect.  This Nano restarts in 20 seconds approximately.

  Now on your computer when you scan available networks, you will see MYNETWORK.  Connect your computer to the SSID and enter your HP5514 password and you're on!  Start surfing or something else.

  Now, what about your printer?  The printer must be set to DHCP and assuming that you have a printer wireless with front panel:

  1. Go to (Assistant) wireless configuration screen.
  2. Search for available networks.
  3. Select: MYNETWORK
  4. Enter your password: HP5514
  5. To connect!

  In about 15 seconds, you're connected!   Oh, guess what?  The Nano has a WAN/LAN port and in Bridge mode, it is a LAN port that is connected to your network too!  Then plug into a printer/computer Ethernet cable, if you wish.

  Your printer will work as usual with no change at all.  I set up in my house to test and it connected perfectly to my HP5514 wireless printer.  All the tools, diagnostics, printer functions, alerts of ink were normal.

  You're done!

  The bottom can be used anywhere to create a local private network so that you and others can use your printer.

  Now, what about the changes?  If at home, you can use the Nano in Repeater mode to connect to your own network and extend the reach of all devices.  Even as the Bridge mode, but you're on your network using your SSID and the word normal, so everyone can use the printer.

  Don't worry what you heard with speed of execution of a router in Repeater Mode.  Most routers House when running in wireless Repeater mode should be set to no encryption or WEP only.  Here max speed is 54 Mbps.  This Nano turns at full speed of 150 Mbps in these modes, using the highest security WPA2-AES (personal).

  Remember that the size is small, so it's good to perhaps more than 50 feet.  HD video streaming was impeccable and surf watch video at the same time was perfect.

  I hope this help you when business or vacation.  Some hotels charge for EACH device connection.  With the implementation above, it takes only a charge for multiple devices, such as cell phones, iPads, light fires, computers or anything else you want to connect.

  EDIT - do not forget that this Nano device has an Ethernet connection that once configured, you can use to connect a wired computer or wired Ethernet printer.  It is a good radio your printer wireless doesn't have to convert a wired Ethernet wireless printer or if you want your printer to support greater security WPA2 wireless.

  Have fun!

• All-in-one HP Photosmart Plus B209a wireless - printer problems

  I plug just this printer 2 weeks ago and there are already problems! A few days ago, I went to print something a TI never printed, so I checkd the queue and it says the printer is offline. I checked and the 'use printer offline' option has NOT been verified. I googled looking for help offline wireless printer and came across some tips to restart the spool.and then unplug and plug back into the printer, so I did and he went online and I was able to print 1 document of 4 pages. But after this document, I tried to print another document, and it said "error-printing" in the queue. So today, after that I restarted my computer, it worked well again - for a document. Then he returned to offline mode. So I watched fo more help online. I tried making sure the correct port with my printers IP address has been verified and he was, and I tried to uninstall and reintalling the drivers that did not help. I basically tried everyting on the HP support on the topic page and nothings worked. But it peprfectly worked well for a week so I don't see why it would be to have these problems now?

  Also, I tried to print a document 2 faces a few days (before the issuance of all offline). I went to the printing preferences, click on 'manual' under duplex print, then ok, and it printed all the odd pages, as it was supposed to. Then the screen came from promting me to take the paper in the output tray and the tray and click on continue so I did. I waited and waited and waited for a good 10 minutes and never even printed pages. In the queue it sad it was printing, but it wasn't. I cancelled the document and just tried to print a document face a regular to see if this works-it printed fine. So I tried printing 2 - against new and it's the same as before.

  The laptop I am I am trying to print from is a Sony Vaio CR320 running on Windows Vista. I have not instaled anything new in the last week, so I know there are no new program interfering. Also, I have not removed any programs.

  Any ideas? I am a student and I am a little lost without a printer lol :/

  OK, time to bring in power tools.  Download, install and run this tool.  He should tell us what is happening.  Run it when the printer shows offline.

  We recently upgraged to a new blank media 3 hub, the printer is connected to a Hp Windows Vista desktop via USB, other devices (laptops and tablets) could access the wireless printer when the computer is turned on.

  I also created the same printer to be used wireless by the other devices without the Office of marketing, it was a pain having to keep it logging on when he fell asleep. The printer had a different name if you are using one.

  After that the hub of the Virgin was installed I can is no longer using the printer without the Office being wireless, the new Center can not find the printer connects as is done before that other laptops, I had no problem with my old hub and a separate router.

  I've tried everything as suggested by Virgin (not much there) and reinstalled my drivers for the printer. Any suggestions what I can do?
