Printing from iMac using bonjour to a printer connected to netgear wifi router USB port

Wondering if someone could help provide advice. I have just purchased my first iMac and a new NetGear W600 wifi router. I have connected my Canon multifunction MX310 printer directly to my iMac and it prints and scans perfectly. However when I connect it to the USB port of my new NetGear W600 wifi modem the only thing I can print is the test page on the iMac, ... nothing else prints. I receive the message that my iMac has connected to the printer but nothing prints out, except the basic test page.
In stark contrast, when I install bonjour on my Dell notebook PC, running Vista, it prints perfectly to the same MX310 printer connected to the NetGear wifi router!

Hi, Thanks for your help. I am trying to get documents printing to the canon printer in wifi mode, via bonjour, when the printer is connected to the USB port of my NetGear wifi router. I have a wifi internet connection via the same NetGear wifi router so it doesn't seem to be a network connectivity issue. ... any other ideas?
Many Thanks
John

Anyone know how to print from Win2K or WinXP to shared printer on iMac?

Help! Anyone know how to print from Win2K or WinXP to shared printer on iMac? I have a new IMac hosting a Canon iP4300, a pc running W2K & a pc running WXPsp2. All computers recognize each other and the iP4300 on the network and can share files. All Mac "Windows Sharing" & "Printer Sharing" preferences sre set correctly. Apple says the printer must be configured on the Windows computers as an SMB/CIFS network printer using a Postscript driver. I can find lots of pages on the net telling me I what needs to be done, but nothing stating how to do it. All the info I've found is either overly simplistic and or relates to the 10th dang of enterprise server administration. Would VERy much appreciate any help at all.

When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ?

When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ? Use the same printer with a PC and printed the same picture files- they are printed with high quality- Why can't the IMAC do the same?

Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac?
How exactly are you printing these photos?

Please do 2-3 SMC and PRAM resets back to back and retest. Also use new cables, they can go bad.

Printing from Classic Using OS X Drivers

Shouldn't I be able to print from Classic using my Epson USB printer's OS X drivers (OS 9 drivers don't exist for this model)? I've tried opening the Chooser in Classic, but the printer doesn't show up.
Thanks,
Emily

Go to Chooser (while in a Classic App) and select LaserWriter 8 driver - even if there's no printer on the right.
When you want to print, the LaserWriter 8 print dialog comes up and you can select your OS X printers in the destination printer pull-down.
Good luck.

Barcode Printing from EP --using barcode4J (Gurus kindly help me)

Dear Experts,
Barcode Printing from EP --using barcode4J
we want to print employee number as barcode in EP(version 6.4 SP 19).
we tested the barcode creation a standalone class, it works fine
Sample Code as follows
================================
Code128Bean bean = new Code128Bean();
 final int dpi = 150;
 //Configure the barcode generator
 bean.setModuleWidth(UnitConv.in2mm(1.0f / dpi)); //makes the narrow bar
 //width exactly one pixel
 bean.setWideFactor(3);
 bean.doQuietZone(false);
 //Open output file
 File outputFile = new File("out.jpg");
 OutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);
 try {
 //Set up the canvas provider for monochrome JPEG output
 BitmapCanvasProvider canvas = new BitmapCanvasProvider(
 out, "image/jpeg", dpi, BufferedImage.TYPE_BYTE_INDEXED, false);
 //BarcodeServlet.
 //Generate the barcode
 bean.generateBarcode(canvas, "Z454544");
 //Signal end of generation
 canvas.finish();
 } finally {
 out.close();
But the same code i put in wdDoModifyView() or wdDoInit() it throws class not found exception. I have checked that barcode4j.jar and all relevant files are in classpath.
Any help will be rewarded.
Thanks
Aby.

Am unable to print from Firefox (used to be able to) even though I can print from Safari....what should I try?

have an up to date Firefox and was able to print to HP printer from internet until recently. I can print from internet using Safari so am sure that the problem is in some setting from Firefox. The printer is chosen in preferences and it seems to send a message to printer but only blank paper comes out....and ideas of what to try would be appreciated!

Hi timcasey-
I recommend you read this Support article on troubleshooting printing issues:
[[Firefox prints incorrectly]]
Hope that helps.

Trying to print from iPad2 using Fingerprint2

Hi
I have an iPad2 and my husband has a MacBook Pro. I've installed Fingerprint2 on the MacBook to enable me to print from the iPad to our HPCP1515n printer, which is not an Airprint printer.
Installed Fingerprint fine but whenever I ask to print, I get a 'printer offline' message...Help!!
Also, MacBook is awake and printer plugged in...
Any help gratefully received!!
Thanks, Helen.

have you asked in the hp forum where more owners and maybe even hp staff would be reading your post?

Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?

Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?
a) HP printer with USB port only (no ethernet port) connected to Airport Express
b) No issue printing from Macs
Tests
1) Installed Bonjour 2 - does not find printer (now uninstalled)
2) Bonjour 3 is listed in programs but no way to access
3) Using TCPIP address (and no Bonjour) gives 'Unsupported Personality' error when printing test page
Regards
Richard
p.s. why are all Windows 8.1 questios n the forum 'Locked' with no reply?

This is possible, but not with Bonjour or any other fixes. It is just a printer set up based on the Port name of the Airport, 10.0.1.1.
I found the answer on YouTube, Title: Windows Printing For Apple AirPort Extreme without Bonjour Wireless wifi.

Can't print from a windows pc to network printer

I am having a network printer problem.
I have a Canon printer plugged into the usb port of my Mac-Mini. I can print fine from the Mac to the printer. I have network sharing enabled for the printer.
I have a Dell PC connected to an Airport Express via internet cable as part of my network.
I have bonjour installed on the Dell
Bonjour can see the networked canon printer and will install it as the default printer for the Dell PC.
However, I can not print from the Dell unless I have the wrong printer driver (an HP driver) installed. As long as the wrong driver is installed I can print the first page of a document only.
If I install the correct Canon driver, the printer ceases to function.
I tried connecting the printer to the airport express via usb. Once I did this, I was able to print from the Dell pc with no problem using the correct driver. But then, I could no longer print from the Mac-mini via the Airport Express connected printer. The Mac could see the printer and identify that it was connected via Airport. And the Mac will allow me to connect to the Airport connected printer . But as soon as I trie to print something from the Mac, it fails and gives an error message or pauses and says the drivers may not be correct.
Can anyone help me with this issue?

I believe that there may not be a solution to this because the printer will only recognize one set of drivers. Since one set of drivers is for the Mac and one set is for a PC It will only work with one machine or the other.
Then you should be able to print from the Mini after resetting the printer, e.g. by turning it off and back on after a short while. But it sounds as if this won't help either, and to be frank, it's not an "acceptable" explanation, either...
So, what's the error message? Unless known, we can only keep guessing:
You've reset the printer system in the Mini? Eventually consider deleting the Canon drivers manually afterwards, and only then add the printer again and re-install its software.
If that doesn't help either, the issue must be a communication problem, meaning I'd recommend to double-/triple-check all comm-related things as well.

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

Can you print from a iPad to an AirPrint printer without an Internet connection?

General Jer-
Maybe.
If you can set up your AirPrint printer's WiFi to create an Ad Hoc Network, then your iPad can connect its WiFi directly to it and be able to print.
I have the HP D110 AirPrint printer. As I recall, it was set up in Ad Hoc Network mode out of the box. I had to change the setting in order to update its firmware over the internet. You probably should do that as well, to be sure it has the latest firmware.
If you happen to have an old Apple AirPort WiFi base station, you can use its WiFi network for printing. It does not require an internet connection to print. Other brands may work as well, but some do not correctly handle the Bonjour data required by AirPrint.

All of a sudden I can't print from Firefox. I reinstalled the printer and also reinstalled Firefox. No joy. I can print from Safari.

I have an IMac, OS X 10.5.8
I've had it for more than a year and have always been able to print from Firefox without a problem. I have an HP deskjet 6850 printer.
Now I can't print from Firefox. When I hit print, I get the dialog box but if I click print -- or even click "preview" nothing happens. The dialog box disappears and nothing prints.
