How do I set up my computer to print?

I just installed a HP Officejet 6700. I can print from Microsoft Outlook & Microsoft Word without a problem because there's a toolbar with the print option. But when I'm on the web & I want to print the page or a highlighted excerpt, what do I do?
When I click on the HP icon in my tray, the HP Home Page offers every option but PRINT (eprint, scan, fax, shop, etc). When I right-click, there still isn't a PRINT option in the drop-down menu.
I searched HP Support & Help, but the solution was to "click on PRINT from the File Menu in my software application."
What / Where is that ?
I'm at a loss. I must have missed something when I set the printer up because I never had this issue with my Lexmark. Please help...
Thanks !
This question was solved.

You can try using the CRTL+ P (together) shortcut to initate the print menu.
Or
You can press ALT + F (together) to get the menu which has a print option.
If however you are specifically trying to print a part of a page (A selection), In that case you can try downloading an App from Hp called the "HP SMART PRINT" designed specifically for web printing.

How do I set up a booklet to print with my Konica Minolta?

how do I set up a booklet to print with my Konica Minolta?

Is it a BizHub? If so, use the booklet printing from the Koncia driver.
If it's like the one I have, click the Printer button at the bottom of InDesign's print dialog, then choose Layout/Finish from the drop down menu, and booklet from there.
One thing to note: with this method, leave your paper size the same as one page of your document.

How can I set up my iPad to print to my Kodak ESP 7250 wifi printer

How can I set up my iPad to print to my Kodak ESP 7250 wifi printer

Kodak has a firmware upgrade to allow a version of air printing via a third party service, google docs I think. You can e-mail documents to your printer, or you can set up a hardwired printer as a local print server and send them to that.
Or you can look into an app. I have that same model of printer and use Print n Share and it works fine...slow but fine. I didn't go for the firmware cloud printing simply because I didn't want yet another online account.

I have an HP Pavilion a1430n. How do I set up a wireless HP printer to this computer.

I want to know how to set up an HP wireless printer to my existing computer (not wireless).

It depends on what HP wireless printer you have. Let me know the model.
You will need software to be able to print. Get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

How do I set up my Brother laser printer to work wirelessly?

My printer works okay with the USB connection but I am sure it can be set up wirelessly and I am not sure how to do it. I added the printer with the ISP address the computer gave me (I am seeing a slightly different number when I check the LinkSys manual) If I click on this printer nothing happens but the printer works fine with the hard connection. I know I am doing something wrong but not sure just what. This should be simple but I have spent hours trying to work it out - unsuccessfully!

The wireless address may have to be similar to that you'd assign the
printer if it were supported by Ethernet, since it would be networked.
The USB is different, and in theory, Ethernet should be faster & in
some cases, perhaps better shared between users on a network.
I'm not sure how to use a printer wirelessly unless a wireless print
server were used, or if you happened to have a supported printer
and were setting up a wireless printing from an AirPort Base Station.
{The newer printers are supposed to eliminate the need for this ^.}
Usually, the instructions and software disc accompanying Brother
printers, makes using their stuff easier than, say some HP stuff.
If the product says it will work wirelessly out of the box, with OS X
it probably will. Which product do you have, and when was it made?
There may be newer drivers for it at the manufacturer's web site, if old.
With a brand model of printer, some information may be available online
and even a google-type search could show you other ideas about this.
Good luck & happy computing!

How do I set up the system to print 4x6 labels via paypal and ebay using a DYMO 4XL Thermal Label Printer (through airport)?

We bought a DYMO Label Writer 4XL. We want to print thermal labels from our Mac and PC, wireless. The good thing is that I already have the printer set in the network and added on each of our computers (Mac and Windows 8). For printing regular labels you can use the Dymo software; for printing postage labels from ebay or paypal has been impossible.
From ebay I even tried one label at the time but still did not work. I sent the the print command from the mac-print-window, changing each of the settings (such as paper size) but did not work. Each time (no matter if you want to print one label only) it advances more than one lable.
http://community.ebay.com/t5/Miscellaneous/Using-a-thermal-printer-for-eBay-labe ls-using-a-Mac/qaq-p/3135261 (post by stormshock)
Through Paypal is a different story. It should be easy cause it seems the Zebra Driver in Paypal works with this DYMO. The issue is how to get the system to send the print command to the DYMO printer through the Zebra LP2488? please help! I know some people have succeded making all these work. What am I missing?

To whomever is reading this post I just wanted to let you know I returned the Dymo 4XL. Their customer service is horrible. Technical support does not exist at all. The issue was extremely frustrating and time consuming. I do not recommend this thermal printer at all. Good luck finding one... if you do, please share.

How do i set up hp eprint to pint in black only

Hi and welcome to the HP Support Community.
On an Android device, in the ePrint app, you select the document or photo you want to print. In the Preview screen, open Settings (the document icon with a gear in the top right corner of the screen). There among other things, you can set Color Mode to Black Only, Grayscale, or Color.
Hope this helps.

How do I set up The Lorax Daily Print Activities?

The steps are pretty simple:
Open The Lorax Daily Print Activities. The application should open as soon as installation is complete. You can also open the program by clicking your desktop icon, or by clicking Start, then All Programs, then the name of the particular application.
To set up the application to print, follow these steps:
(1) Select each of the days when you want prints.
(2) Select the time of day when you want your prints (these are in hourly slots).
(3) Select your printer from the list (PDF and XPS writers are not supported). .
(4) Don’t forget to click Save when you’re through!
You can also click the wrench icon () to open the Settings dialog, where you can:
(1) Turn Scheduled Printing On or Off (you might want to turn scheduled printing Off when you go on vacation, for instance).
(2) Set the desired action for when a scheduled print is missed. If you want the item to print immediately when you log in, select Automatically. If you want to be asked before an item is printed, select When Prompted. If you just want to skip missed items, select Never.
(3) Click Save in the Settings dialog to save your changes.
Don’t forget that on the days and times you’ve selected, your printer must be turned on, have paper, and be connected to your computer, and your computer must be on and connected to the Internet. Happy printing!

How can I set up my ipad to print on my printer

Can I set up my wireless printer to print things off of my Ipad 7 ?

Hi skp0348,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I gather that you would like to learn how to connect your iPad to your HP printer.
The first step is to ensure that your printer is connected to your wireless network. If the printer is not connected to your wireless network and supports wireless connectivity, please visit HP’s Wireless Printing Center – Connecting Your Wireless Printer. It lists the different the methods for connecting your printer to your wireless network. Please note that not all HP printers support all of the methods, but your printer will support at least one of the methods, if it supports wireless connectivity.
Once the printer is connected to your wireless network, if your printer and your router support Bonjour communication, you should now be able to print using Apple’s AirPrint feature (some HP printers are older than Apple’s AirPrint and do not support AirPrint). If you are unsure if your printer supports AirPrint please refer to the HP Printers and Supported Mobile Printing Solutions document. I’ve included 2 different documents on using Apple’s AirPrint with HP printers. The first one is Printing from Your Apple Device with Non-Web-Enabled Printers (No Apple AirPrint or HP ePrint Suppor... and the second one is How to Use Apple's AirPrint Over a Wireless Network.
If you want more options than what is available with AirPrint (see Apple’s AirPrint Basics document) you can download and install HP’s ePrint Mobile app. I’ve included the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQs document for reference.
If you want to scan from your printer to your iPad please download HP’s All-in-One Printer Remote app. The app will allow customers, with a supported printer, to scan documents to their iPad. I’ve included the HP All-in-One Printer Remote Mobile App FAQs document for reference. If you are unsure if your printer supports HP’s AiO app, please refer to the HP Printers and Supported Mobile Printing Solutions document.
If you printer supports HP’s ePrint feature and you want to set it up, you would start by Getting the Printer’s Claim Code. Once you have the printer’s claim code you would add it to your HP ePrintCenter or HP Connected account (HP Connected has only been rolled out to the USA, the UK, France, and Germany), and then you have the option to Customize the ePrint Email Address. I’ve also included the Getting Started with ePrint document which will explain how to print with ePrint and also has an FAQ section.

PowerBook G4 15 1.67GHz 10.4.2 512MB AirPort Extreme; iMac G4 20 1.25GHz Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Ensure that the Airport base station is configured to not distribute IP addresses.
On the iMac
System Preferences > Sharing > Printer Sharing
On the PowerBook
Applications > Utilities > Printer Setup Utility
Add Printer
It may work with the HP driver (which you will need to install on the PowerBook)
It may work with a third-party driver such as the HPIJS drivers or the Gimp-Print drivers, but this is not the case with all printers.
