10.5.2 update kills wireless printer?

I updated to 10.5.2 last night and noticed today that I could no longer wirelessly print via Airport Express. My set up is MacBook to Airport Express to Samsung ML-2510. Had no problems with this setup with 10.5.1 - also hooking up my MB to the printer directly via USB cable worked.
Also, has anyone noticed that if they turn off their USB printer on Airport Express it kills iTunes as well? Usually have to power cycle the Airport Express to get it working again.
Any help is appreciated- thanks

I am having the same problem as well. I could print fine using airport express to my Samsung CLP-300. No problems this past year, until just last week. I have tried everything imaginable, including replacing my USB cable. I can print fine when directly connected to my MacBook, but every time I attempt to print wirelessly through my airport express, it never makes it to the printer. It hangs up and eventually gives me the message that the "device is in use". I installed 10.5.2 last week. Here apparently lies the culprit. I am hoping for a fix soon, or I am dead in the water.

  • Printer Update 2.16 Killed Wireless Printing on my Epson SX600FW

    I have been using an Epson SX600FW for several years and I don't remember having a problem with it until I recently allowed Software Update to install Printer Update 2.16 and since then I have been unable to print via wireless. I can still print via USB but I won't bore you with how much of a nuisance it is for me to have to do this but it is a major pain.
    When I try to print via wireless, everything looks normal until after the document has spooled and then the printer window simply says 'looking for printer'.
    In Preferences, the printer looks OK with a small green circle next to it but in the printer's utility, it states that the printer is not responding even though it gives ink levels.
    I have tried installing the drivers from Epson's site - they are dated 2008 so I doubt they are the latest but they didn't work anyway. Even after that, Software Update doesn't seem to think that the old drivers need updating.
    I have read on here of other people's problems with this update not just with Epson printers. Is there any way to revert to how my Mac was a week ago without doing a full Time Machine restore?
    I'm pretty annoyed that an update has broken something which has worked for years.

    I have a solution
    I have a workforce 850 but encountered the same problem. Here's the steps I took to fix:
    Went to the printer. and printed a network connection report. (the printer should of course be connected to your wireles network). Obtain the IP address
    Turn off the printer.
    Go to Apple menu (upper left on desktop) > System Preferences > Printers & Scanners. Delete the print queue and remove the printer by clicking on the button under the list of printers. Click OK to confirm the removal.
    Press the CTRL button on the keyboard and click on the white box on the left (where the printers should be listed) and click on Reset Printing System. (Note: This step deletes all installed printers on the list. You will need to re-add all printers installed on this computer)
    Turn on the printer. Click the   button. The system should automatically detect the printer. Click the Add button and try to print.
    If the printer doesn't show after the Reset, click the IP tab and enter the IP address obtained in step one
    Your printer should now show on the USE pulldown menu. Click Add and try to print

  • 7.3.1 killed wireless printing (Samsung ML-2510)

    OK. It looks like 7.3.1 has killed my wireless printing.
    If I attempt to print anything it takes several min for anything to print. When it finally does i get this page that says "Internal error - False"
    I have A Mac Pro, A Mac Book Air, and a mac mini. The printer works fine when connected directly to any of these three systems. When it's connected either of my Airport Base Station Extreme(n) routers (Original and Gigabit versions) I get the problem above.
    I don't think this is a Drive issue or a Samsung issue. This printer worked just fine before the 7.3.1 update. All my systems are running OS X 10.5.2 with all updates. The printer was working before the 7.3.1 update.
    Is this a know issue? any plans to fix this? where can iI report this directly to apple?

    Hi,
    no solution but same issue to report.
    I migrated our imac G5 from Panther (yes, you read it correctly) to Leopard (with all updates) and boom no more wireless printing. Same Printer, same error message : ML-2510, "Internal error...". It works fine if plugged directly via USB but the airport express device is useless for now
    Come on Apple, fix it. We have a bug here, right ?
    Regards,

  • Mac app store driver update killed my printing

    Printer:  Envy100 (D410)
    OS:  Mountain Lion (OSX 10.8.2)
    Printer was working fine prior to this morning when I was notified that there was an update via the app store.  I installed the driver update and now all HP software will not see the printer.  I have done the following:
    *  Downloaded latest software from HP and re-installed - no change, cannot see printer
    *  Uninstalled HP Printer software, rebooted, re-installed latest version - no change, cannot see printer
    *  Added the printer first via System Preferences-->Print  & Scan (no problem there) then tried to use the HP Utility to see the printer - no change, cannot see printer
    *  Tried to set up the printer manually using IP address - still does not see the printer
    All of this was working fine yesterday.  I am now without the ability to print, other than by email using hpeprint.com.
    I don't know how to remove the latest update that hosed me.  Please help.
    Edit:  I should also note that all the PCs in my house have no issues.  Nothing changed on the printer itself, the only thing that changes is the driver software on my mac.
    This question was solved.

    Ok,
    Reboot the router by unplugging it for 30 sexonds, then try following the HP Setup Assistant again.
    If it still fails to locate the printer please let me know your router brand and model.
    I now tested the Envy 100 using the latest HP Printer Drivers 2.12 and were able to print with no issues..

  • Mac OSX update and wireless printing

    I have an iMac G4. Ran the updates yesterday (including security). My wireless printers no longer work (Brother and HP). I tried deleting and then adding the HP, but Bonjour cannot find it. I have downloaded new HP drivers, fixed permissions and rebooted, but nothing helps. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

    All fixed. Reset the routers and did a safeboot.

  • Yosemite has killed wireless printing

    I updated my wife’s MacBook Air, 13”, Mid 2012 to Yosemite last evening and now it will not print on our local network. I have tried a few things I found here in the forums to no avail.
    Neither an HP Officejet Pro 8100 nor a Samsung ML-2010 lazer will work on the network but work fine on my iMac via USB.
    Curiously, when I open the Printers & Scanners pref and click on + I get this: HP Officejet Pro 8100 @ Tom Gould’s iMac Intel i5 (2).
    Do not recall ever seeing the (2) before. See pics.
    When I go to /Library/Printers, there are no files there.
    I am stumped. Sounds Like I have to start fresh, but I don’t know what that is.
    Can someone help?

    I have tried diligently to make the printers work on my wife’s MBA.
    I deleted all files and re-installed the latest printer software.
    I was finally able to get the printers re-installed, by manually entering the IPA.
    However, and this may be a clue, with no printers installed, when I clicked on the + to add one, I selected the HP printer. A small window opened with a thermometer, saying it was installing the printer.
    Then it stopped and an Alert appeared:
    “The software for the printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printers’ manufacturer for the latest software.”
    Hmmmmmm.

  • Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7.  Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?

    Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7.  Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?

    1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
    2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
    3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds
    4. Turn on your iPad and test print.

    I don't get it, I read one post about why would we have to buy an AirPrint Printer when we have used the "print to a wifi printer" just fine in the past?  Yes I feel that's exactly what's happening to me now too. I want to print from my iPhone and iPad to my WiFi Printer which is also now connected to my Airport Express WiFi network just fine. No problems.

    Very glad you added that bit of information because I see different problems similar to this.  I want to share with them what you did and hopefully you not only fixed your specific problem but you can lend some more advice to others with problems like this. Thanks!

  • Wireless printing no longer working after installing HP 2.7 update

    I have been using wireless printing from my Macbook Pro (running Lion OSx 10.7.2) fine until yesterday when it just stopped working out of nowhere. From looking on the forums it appears that this is probably a result of the HP 2.7 update (which I also had the issue of continuously re-appearing in my software update list even after installing it multiple times - though i was able to resolve this courtesy of this forum). I've tried re-installing the printer multiple times and it works fine when connected via USB, it acnowledges that the printer is connected to the same wireless network as my computer bu

    OK, before you dive any more into the registry, a simple question. Did you try uninstalling iTunes, rebooting, and re-installing iTunes?
    I do have an entry for 'iTunes.Application.1' (below). However, I'm sure there are many more registry entries related to iTunes. In other words, adding this entry will probably not be sufficient to restore the COM functionality.

  • Unable to connect to wireless printer or download firmware update

    Got an HP C4580 all-in-one wireless. Can see the device wirelessly using the HP Utility, but cannot print to it "Printer is not connected" or see it using System Preferences. Have downloaded the firmware update, but when running this it hangs at the device discovery stage (even when connected through USB) and therefore I cannot update the firmware on the printer.
    The printer will print when connected throught USB.
    Driving me nuts!
    Jim

    Thanks for the information. Network is not complex. Cable Broadband connected by ethernet to AirPort with an additional AirPort (Time Capsule) to extend the range of the network through the house.
    I did all as you suggested, and this worked fine (once) for twoMacBook Pros, and two iMacs, and now won't work on any of these again (one day later).
    Am reluctant to reset the printers again, as my print list includes five printers from work, which requires the IT Dept to reconfigure again if I clear them once more.
    HP Utility can apparently connect to the printer and give me device information, I just cannot print to, or scan from the printer.
    As advised before, I cannot install the firmware update (it may alreadybe installed - how would I know)? It just hangs when trying to seek the printer type.
    The lack of wireless printing is driving me nuts. Before the problem arose with complete loss of service, I went through a period of a few weeks where the printer would not connect after it had printed a job, and had to be switched off, then back on again before working wirelessly. Now nothing.
    Kind regards,
    Jim

  • I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 my new wireless printer requires 10.6 can I get an update?

    I have a Mac OS X 10.5.8. My wireless printer requires 10.6. Can my computer be updated?

    If you're in the US, Snow Leopard can be purchased from the online store here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It's worth noting that Snow Leopard is no longer being supported by Apple for security updates, so once you've updated Snow Leopard to v10.6.8, you might wish to consider upgrading to a later OS X release. Mavericks is supported on the Mid 2009 MacBook5,2, so that would be your best strategy. Your MacBook also supports up to 6 GB RAM, so an upgrade of your RAM would go a long way to ensuring newer operating systems perform well.

  • Updated on 12/20 now can not print on HP5520 wireless printer need help!

    Since doing update on 12/20/13 I can no longer print from firefox on my wireless HP 5220 printer. Please advise how to correct or can I revert to the older version of firefox that did print on wireless printer. Worked great before update. Now not at all happy.

    Do you get an error message, or is the printer missing from the dialog, or just nothing comes out??
    To see whether the problem is in Firefox's settings, could you check this article if you didn't already try it: [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]].
    To see whether the problem is that an HP add-on got disabled, you could check your Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled ones cluster toward the bottom. Anything HP or printing related down there?

  • Where do I go to get software updates for my wireless printer hp 4620 series

    I have a wireless printer hp 4620 series. It came with an installer cd that only allows use of OS X , Mountain Lion, and Lion. My system is OS Yosemite. The cd told me that the installation was not recommended and I should get software update from Apple. but did not give me a link as to where I could go. Please help! I need to re-establish my wireless connection between my Apple and my printer. ASAP.

    It should print with old drivers but you need the updated drivers for scanning.
