Wireless laptop windows 7 says my hp photosmart 6510 is offline, but printer says connected

Hello, Ive only had these two items together for a couple months, then all of a sudden nothing will print from the computer. I can put my memory card or scan a photo on printer and it will print, but nothing from computer. When I go into the printer queue it says my printer is offline, but my printer says its connected to my server. The only thing I can think of that i did before this happened was deleted all the extra tool bars from internet explorer. I have unistalled and reinstalled my printer software too and still no success. So when I try to connect my computer to my printer it says "unable to find printer". Thank you! 

If you have a wireless router or DSL modem which uses DHCP to assign network addresses, check whether your printer's assigned address has changed since you set it up. Windows 7 printer setup has a command for updating that, but it would be better to reserve a specific address so it doesn't change in future.

  • Trying to apply an update to Firefox, new window says 'connecto the update server..' but it never connects.

    When turning on the computer, I am advised that an update to Firefox is available and it is highly recommended that I update.

    Hello jwmoss, If there is an issue with update or permissions the better and easiest way is to download and install firefox:
    1. Download a copy of the latest firefox from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    2. '''''Trash''''' the current Firefox application to do a clean install.
    3. Install the version that you have downloaded.
    Do not select to remove your personal data, your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks or other personal data.

  • How do i open acsm file on my windows pc? i downloaded adobe digital edition, but it says error, check valuation?

    how do i open acsm file on my windows pc? i downloaded adobe digital edition, but it says error, check valuation?
    thanks in advance

    I'm wondering if that is similar to the issue I've encountered before, where the file association for acsm is not to ADE but a certificate file. If you could try right clicking on the acsm and 'open with' and search for ADE and make sure 'always open with this' is check marked, that may, I repeat may, help.
    If you've already done this, I don't know what to say, that's just what I've seen.

    Did you try downloading the movie from iTunes on your iPad?  I know it takes longer but I'd try that. 
    Also try to reset all settings.

    iCloud doesn't store documents from your Mac (or scanner).  It will only sync documents and data from applications designed for iCloud syncing, such as Pages, Keynote, Numbers, etc.

  • Windows 8; Photosmart 6510; always offline

    OS: Windows 8
    Printer: HP Photosmart 6510 series
    Wireless
    I'm having a real problem. My laptop (Pavillion) will NOT wirelessly connect to the printer.
    The printer is connected to the Wireless dongle, but the laptop will not see the printer, it is permanently offline.
    The only way I can connect to the printer is to hardwire connect it.
    I've looked at the replies to other similar posts, and nothing seems to be relevant.
    I've looked at all the available menus and there is nothing that allows me to force a connection.
    I've tried turning the printer on before and after the laptop is booted/logged in.
    I've also have the same problem when waking from sleep/hibernate if that is different.

    BTW, the printer properties says " Root Print Queue"

  • I am having a problem trying to get the new version of itunes to download correctly to my laptop. I have updated my ipad to the new ios 7, and windows is showing that it has been downloaded but when I connect my ipad, it is saying I have to download itune

    I really need HELP!!! I have a laptop that runs with windows vista, and I have been having issues trying to get it to download the new version of itunes that would be compatible to the new version of ios 7 that I have already updated on my ipad. I have downloaded this three times, it shows that the download is complete, but when I connect my ipad to my laptop it is still telling me that I have to download the new version again and it will not sync with my ipad until I do. Does anyone else have this issue and can anyone help me figure out how to correct it? I would be most grateful!!

  • HP Photosmart 6510: now everytime I print I get message "Error: 1 document waiting"

    My HP Photosmart 6510 has worked fine for 1 yr and now everytime I print I get message "Error: 1 document waiting" and wont print -I delete the queued document but it doesnt help I've turned off, unplugged, refound the printer and I can't make it work Help please.

    Hey @FMcK !
    Thanks for chatting on the HP forums!
    It looks like your having a communication issue with the computer and HP Photosmart 6510.  I should be able to provide some information that may be of some help.
    If the printer is connected WiFi I would recommend power cycling the router as well.  When sending a print job WiFi the data travels to the router and then the printer. Its possible the print job is getting hung up at the router.  
    If you are still getting issues with WiFi connection I would also suggest plugging in the USB cable to see if the printer and computer are communicating that way.
    You may also need to uninstall and reinstall the HP software in case there is some sort of software issue that has developed over time.  To provide the correct documentation for uninstalling and reinstalling HP software You will need you to provide me with the the operating system you are running (ex. Windows or Mac) and the version of the operating system.
    If you are unsure on how to get the operating system please follow the appropriate link bellow:

    Let me know how it goes and thanks again for posting on the HP forums!

  • Printer says it is not connected - offline but it is connected

    My Canon MP620 wireless printer reports that it is off line - unconnected. The printer is connected, but I cannot get it online and printing. My network consists of two MacBook Pros (one  running Snow Leopard, one running Lion) and an iMac running Tiger. The Tiger and Snow Leopard computers print as expected. The Lion equipped computer did print when Lion was installed initially, but does not print currently. Help!

    Thank you PANHU for alerting me, albeit indirectly through your answer to another Mac user's printer problem, that there are multiple printer ques ( e.g. USB and wireless). In my case I was not waiting long enough for the wireless network printer que to appear in the Add Printer window. Once it appeared and was selected, my problem was resolved. However, I still haven't a clue as to why a perfectly functioning network printer suddenly went offline.

  • HT1386 I am trying to sync my iphone with my laptop using itunes.  Items that I enter on my laptop (Windows Outlook) show up on my iphone.  But items that I enter on iphone do not show up in Outlook.  How do I fix this?

    I purchased an iphone 4 in July 2012.  I set it up to synch with Windows Outlook on my 2009 HP laptop computer (Windows 7).  This seemed to work fine.
    A few weeks ago, I was notified that my itunes or iphone software needed updating.  With my iphone plugged into my computer, I performed the update.  When it was over, I had an error message on my iphone indicating that it needed to be reset.  I did this and there was no information on my iphone.  I then synched with the laptop and everything appeared to be restored.
    HOWEVER, now when I synch, items that I enter on my laptop show up on my iphone BUT items that I enter on my iphone do NOT show up on my laptop.  How do I fix this?

    All content bought/downloaded from iTunes is tied to the account that downloaded it and it can't be transferred to a different account - so you will need to authorise your old account on that computer if you want to transfer its purchases over.
