2 printers on wireless, any issues 7520 a4 and 7612 a3

Hi,
I have an a4 printer; photo smart 7520, which I use primarily for a4 related documents. It is connected wireless to my laptop. I am now planning to purchase a3 printer office jet 7612 primarily for a3 documents.
I would like to know can I have both printers connected wireless to my laptop?
And are there any issues when doing this.
Much appreciated, as always

Scan for nearby networks in your neighborhood using a tool such as InSSIDer or Vistumbler and see if there are any other networks operating on the same channel as your Wireless network. If there are, see if you can set the router to broadcast on the least busy channel in your neighborhood. Channels 1, 6, and 11 are the best to use.
Oh, and I would switch to WPA2 if possible.

Any issues with PE7 and Windows 7?

Hi All,
I am considering purchasing a second computer. I have had great success with PE7 and Vista, But I can't get Vista on the new Alienware I want to buy. So, has anyone had any issues with PE7 and Windows 7? I have read many posts where there are issues with PE8 and Windows7.
Thanks, Stan

It's a toshiba laptop.
4 gig DDR3
core duo
320 hard drive - partitioned
I also use a dual screen - 22" lcd monitor
I don't use it a lot, since I have a desktop. I've noticed having a
dedicated video card makes a world of difference in editing. This might be
your problem; a dedicated high end video card is the way to go.
If I do simple compilations I don't have any problems. I usaully am making
a DVD of soccer games. If there is a lot of special effects I'll use my
desktop that has XP.

Any Issues with X250 and Using 3 Monitors?

With input from this forum, I went ahead and ordered an X250. ETA first week of April. Thank you... (ask me in May if I am still as grateful )
My plan is to also purchase an Ultra dock and use the screen on the notebook as well as two external displays. I did some research and understand certain video ports take priority over others, but this should no be an issue.
After reading another thread (here) I am concerned this setup may not be as reliable as one would hope. I realize the thread references an X240 (not an X250), but would like to know if others have a 3 display setup with the X250 and if they enountered any issues?
Thanks again. This group has provided a wealth of information that has essentially kept me in the Lenovo camp. I currently use a W520 and was pretty close to moving another manufacturer altogether.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Technobob,
I'm using a ThinkPad X240 daily on a ThankPad Ultra Dock with two 1920x1080 DisplayPort monitors simultaneously with the X240 LCD. Also have an X250 which occasionally gets plugged in to the same dock and all three monitors work, no issues.
Hope this helps!

Wireless charging issues Lumia 930 and DT-601

Hi all,
So got my Lumia 930 just over a week a go and everything is pretty much fine (other than the differences that need getting used to after two years of using a Iphone), however the one issue i'm having is with the wireless charging plate that comes with the phone.
It seems to be very tempermental with regards actually charging my phone, sometimes I can get it to charge and it is fine and then other times (like today) it will not charge no matter what I do, plug into wall, plug into laptop...no LED light on and no indication on the phone that it is charging.
At first I thought it was a hardware issue with the charger so went back to my phone suplier and they sent me the money for a new one. Initially this worked fine and I managed to get the original working (after a bit of patience as I didn't realise there was a slight delay between placing and charging). However as previously mentioned the last couple of days it's not charging at all (though did manage to get it to work last night but when woke up this morning it was sat there not charging.
Anyone else had these problems and is it more likely to be a phone hardware issue rather than the charger?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

sounding to me like it could be the phone itself unfortunately. have u checked you are up to date with the latest firmware for your device along with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store? also try performing a soft reset.

I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.

Various wireless connection issue

Hi, i am Drei. one of the technical support of HP for Mac computers / OS Let's name the routers that have issues with the connection or even declining the printer to gain connectivity to it 1. Xfinity from comcast2. Arris from time warner3. Linksys, either a personal router (w/ smart access)4. Hitron technologies from canada ISP's Let's begin with xfinity router You have the get the router's IP address first ex: 10.0.0.1 (for mac this is under the network preferences under the advance and TCP/IP tab) Username : adminPassword : password 1. Access the GUI (Graphical user interface) of the router using whatever web browser you have2. Get to the "Gateway"3. Click "Connection"4. Click "WIFI" Note: You have to check if you see something that says 2.4GHz and 5GHz If does, your router is a dual band router and you will need to change the SSID of the 5GHz to separate the mix band / Frequency in the radio radius. How to change it? Click the "edit" on the 5GHz channel / Freq Then add other characters on the SSID ex. SSID : "HPTechDrei" to "HPTechDrei-5GHz"Then look for the option that says "SAVE" or "Apply" (This doesnt apply on XFINITY alone, it also applies to the entire routers with dual band capabilities) If you have a single band router which only has a 2.4GHz freq (XFINITY), Just make sure that the router is on AUTO Channel not on 1, 2,3,4, etc. Why? this is to NOT to exhaust the router and to avoid any problems (in a long period of time) Next step: Go to "GATEWAY" again and select "FIREWALL" and select "CUSTOM" and again save the settings or apply the settings Note: Do not put any CHECKS on the check box Let's move on to the next step: Let's make this short, Bottom line is to get to the wireless settings of the printer and select "RESTORE NETWORK DEFAULTS" (This applies for printers that have front panel guides) This is the time you either connect the printer in so many ways such as via Auto wireless connect using HP utility, USB SOW using USB cable and HP Utility, Stand alone Wireless setup Wizard, or the advance part via Ad-HOC and accessing the Embedded web server of the Printer (Same as a router GUI) Last is just to readd the printer under the system preferrence for Mac This is it for now. XFINITY Business router, it has a different method to make the printer connected or even for the Mac to see the printer in the NETWORK If you have problems you can call 1800-474-6836 to get help (You are lucky enough if the agent who gets your call is knowledgeable about router access and configs), if i am available on the floor to help the agent who has gotten your call or email me at [email protected] As much as i want to put all of the tips and tricks here for the router configuration, it would take me days to write it all down. Cheers mates

Steve,
Thanks for the quick reply. I have checked the logs on all our devices with AP's connected and found no reference to BPDU/STP messages. Is there a better method to discover a loop situation as this event happened on 12/4, last Thursday.
My understanding is that since we use a WLC the ports that the AP's are plugged into should have this configuration:
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
description Wireless Access Point
switchport access vlan XX
switchport mode access
mls qos trust dscp
spanning-tree portfast
However, I just started a project to refresh our access devices and review configs. I found that some people recommend a config like this:
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
description WAP
switchport access vlan XX
switchport mode access
mls qos trust dscp
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
Wouldn't using the second port config allow me to identify the problem AP and prevent a potential loop being created due to the port being placed in an err-disabled state upon receipt of a BPDU message?
Could the bridge between the wireless and wired network be caused by a laptop being connected to the wired and wireless networks at the same time? That is a likely scenario here as we have dozens of laptop users in our client base. Any other scenarios that might result in this situation?
Thanks again.

Erratic discovery of HP printers using wireless/bonjour

Computers: 5 Macs, all wirelessly connected to internet via Airport
Wireless network: Airport Extreme base station (first floor), Airport Express (basement)
Printers: HP Color Laserjet 2600n (in basement, directly connected by USB to basement Airport Express), HP Officejet 7410 (nearby in basement, wireless-enabled), HP Photosmart 7200 (first floor, wireless-enabled)
My expertise: modest at best, useless in this case
Issue 1: Laserjet 2600n can be discovered (Bonjour) from anywhere and can print wirelessly from Word, Photoshop, Preview, etc; however, using HP Utility, Laserjet is not discovered (Bonjour or otherwise)
Issue 2: Officejet 7410 when used previously in different location printed wirelessly without any issue, using WEP key for network security; now located in basement next to Airport Express (with strong signal), 7410 shows the name of the same network without difficulty, but after printer asks for WEP key and it is entered, printer eventually says network connection failed
Help!!

Hi, thanks a lot for responding. Re #1, I replaced the USB cable from Airport Express to the 2600n with an ethernet cable. It continues to work re printing, but still is not discovered by the HP utility. Certainly it isn't critical that the HP utility work wirelessly (after all, printing does work!) but it would be nice re supplies, etc. Any further thoughts?
Re issue #2, the 7410 and one of the laptops are next to each other about 6 feet away from the Airport Express. Since it's in the basement, there are a limited number of options re moving the Express further away, and the best option seems to kill the signal from the Airport Extreme through the floor to the Express. Hmmm. Interestingly, when the 7410 did work wirelessly it was quite close to the Extreme base station. I can't help but wonder if there is some configuration issue re setting up the Express that has relevance to the 7410 but not to the computers in the basement (which continue to have strong signals to the Express). Is that possible?
One thing I also wonder: can the Express be connected to two printers at the same time? What I'm getting at is maybe connecting the 7410 to the Express with a USB or an ethernet cable, instead of using the 7410's native wireless connection? If so, then the 2600 could be connected using the other cable, and we'd be working... yes?

Hello,
I have a DV1688US that just experiencde issues with connecting to my home wireless network. Operating system XP. I have not had any issues with connecting previously.
The wireless button is on and I am able to see the wireless connections. The icon that shows signal strenght says "trying to connect".
I went to a friends house and was able to connect to the internet , but when I plugged in my itouch, I lost the connections. I rebooted the computer and was able to reconnect with no issues.
I went back home and continue to have the same problem. I have AVG anti virus and tried disableing that, but the problem continues.
I'm not the most computer literate but appreciate any help.
Thank you, CK

Hello @sfk129,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're experiencing problems printing from your iPad using the Laserjet M1212nf. I will do my best to assist you! I would recommend following this entire HP document on Printing from an Apple Mobile Device. Click on "Printing with AirPrint", then click on "Click on "No AirPrint Printers Found".
This printer has to be connected by an Ethernet cord to your router. It cannot be setup wireless. The manual here provides this information. Click on "Connect the product". I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great day!

HP Photosmart series 7510 wireless printer issue

I have a HP Photosmart series 7510 wireless printer.
My laptop is an HP Pavillion Entertainment PC dv9700.
I am running Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 2.
The printer stopped responding when I attempt to print something from the laptop, such as a web page or document. When I print a diagnostic page it goes and responds right away.
Any ideas of what I may try. When I set up a regular print job it just stays in the que and does not print.
Thank in advance.

Hello szwonders,
I am sorry to hear you are having an issue with printing with your Photosmart 7510. Thank you for your information.
I would like to help you.
I recommend Resetting your Printer first, to see if that helps.
Also, I recommend running HP's Print and Scan Doctor for Windows to search the driver and software to see if there are any issues.
Please respond to let me know if this helped or if you have any other questions!
Thanks,

My new IPad 3 cannot connect to WIFI even it has a full bar of the reception. In the same location, my PC and my smart phone get a full bar connection without any issues. How can I do to fix the issues (can I switch to IPad 2)?

My new Ipad 3 cannot connect to WIFI even it has a full bar of reception. In the same location, my Windows 7 PC and Andorid Smart phone can connect to the same WIFI without any issues. How can I fix it? Without WIFI, the WIFI only IPAD is nearly useless. If it cannot be fixed, can I get a replacement for IPad 2?

Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation. If defective, you'll get a replacement.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

Is there a fix for the MBP wireless dropping issue?

I began to experience the Macbook Pro dropping wireless connectivity on my very 1st Apple in 2008. At the end of the day my machine was replaced with a new Macbook Pro mid 2010. It appeared to be working just fine until about 2-3 months ago when I started dropping my wireless printer connection. I searched the internet hoping for a driver update from HP or something from Apple and each time I found something, the problem still existed. I even thought that by upgrading to Lion would resolve any issues that I have with my MBP wireless connectivity issue. After upgrading to buying a new router, new printer and upgrading to Lion; the wireless dropping issue still remains unresolved! I know there are several hundred in not thousands of people who are having the same problem so what are we supposed to do?
When my 1st MBP was replaced in 2010 I had to stop working because I was diagnosed with "Failed Back Surgical Syndrome" and was in the process of applying for disability. Something in the back of my mind said that I needed to purchase Apple Care for this new replacement however I had used all of my savings & retirement to sustain life for me and my family that there was nothing for Apple Care. If it weren't for my church and family I am not sure what I would do during the 18 months of no income while waiting for a decision only to receive an appeal until I findly stood in front of an Administrative Law Judge who heard my case and granted me disability. Besides there was no way I could ask anyone for money to purchase a warranty for a top of the line laptop while the country was falling off an economical cliff.
I broke down and called Apple Support and was told that I qualified for technical assistance regarding the upgrade to Lion a few weeks ago. The tech on the phone had me run some disk utility tests and had me repair permissions which she said could be the cause of the problem. I willingly went along with her in hopes that this was indeed the fix. However, within 10 minutes of hanging up the phone my MBP began to drop it's wireless connection to my new HP printer and also the Internet. Hence my question above is what I am really looking to have answered! What is the fix to this problem that so many people are having issues with? I couldn't afford to purchase Apple Care back in 2010 and I can't afford to purchase a new 2011 machine today if that truly is the fix!
I will be disabled for the remainder of my life and I have grown dependent upon my computer to stay in touch with friends and colleges from work. I worked for the IT Group at Wynn Resorts and I can say that the type of service Appple is providing it's customers is not what I learned over the past 25 years with Mr. Wynn. Why can't Apple get the simple concept that it's customers are it's life line and keeps them in business. I need help and I don't know what to do nor where to turn. It would be different if Apple acknowledged the issue and said they were working on it however they aren't. I plead to Apple to help me fix my notebook so I can stay connected to the outside world vs. couped up inside my home.
Best Regards,
Scott Leavitt

I am simply lookig for some help not an argument. I am not an RF specialist however have setup a few wireless networks in my tenure at Wynn Resorts. I fully agree that wireless networking is an art and a science however the powers that be in Network Land have toughted wireless networking is the easiest and quickest way to get two computers to talk with one another. As I previously said I have already turned one (1) MBP in for this problem and Apple decided to replace it because they could not fix the problem with my particular MBP. This MBP was running Leopard when the problems started
I am having a hard time believeing that there are several other devicces in my home that depend on a wireless network to operate and my MBP is the only one having an issue. I took this a step further and decided to see what would happen if I tried to connect wirelessly via Fusion. In Windows 7 I am able to print and scan to my hearts content without any issues. I am able to browse the internet as much as I want. I close Fusion and try to connect to my printer via wireless and nothing.
In order to get Apple to help do I need to get a Network Analyzer and capture packets when I have these problems? Out of the 1000 + posts is there a consolidation of which answer is the best? BTW I am accessing the internet via a wireless connection using Fusion and Windows 7.
In response to Linc's comments, I will look at the router specifications however I did not qualify that these devices are not using the wireless connection at the same time. Right now I would guess there are maybe two (2) or three (3) at the most that are actively transmitting / receiving information. -- Thanks

MacBook and MacBook Pro with 10.6: Wireless Airport Issues with Cisco

Long Story but please bear with me:
Loaded SL on my daughters MacBook and my MacBook Pro. Internet worked flawlessly at our house (WEP encrypted) and on other public wifi. When my daughter went back to her sorority house at college 24 hours later, she could not access the internet using the sorority house network (Cisco Aironet 1800 router and Cisco Airo Access Points).
Her Airport on the MacBook appeared connected at full strength yet no internet. Two calls to Apple support (they were very nice) did not help. All the following were tried:
1. Reset PRAM
2. Deleted Airport and Safari plists
3. Edited locations
4. Removed Battery
5. Others I cannot now remember
Still no net. However, she could 'pirate' and hop on line with other identified public wifi adjacent to the sorority house. I drove to the sorority house today and tried to get on the network wirelessly using my MacBook Pro with SL. Same identical results to hers. Another MacBook without SL works great and gets right on the network.
Is this some SL influenced issue with the Airport card and the Cisco system? Weird that both of our laptops work great with several other wifi networks but not the one at the sorority house.
Could much of what we all our seeing with the internet access problem lie not with issues within our software or computers but with the routers and access points not being compatible? I have very little understanding of this stuff (as you all can probably tell) but the Apple Support people acted like it was a old firmware issue with Cisco and not with SL. Not actually what I wanted to hear.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Your description there, particularly the last part, sounds like my problem. At home, we connect using Airport and ADSL which was OK, once SL had sorted out passwords.
At my office, where there are two wifi systems, I could not get on either, although did have IP numbers on both. The link to the outside world is via a proxy which uses a PAC file. Network Diagnostics reported each time (whatever I did) that the link to the server was OK, but the Internet was not.
I created a new Location with identical settings (typing them in and not copying) and the only visible difference is that the new location has no DNS numbers -- I had not noticed that before. The moment I pressed, Apply, the computer was online.
I was guessing that there was a conflict in a .plist file somewhere; but now I wonder if DNS might have been the reason (the DNS number usually used is the one from the router itself).

Wireless loss issues for over a year now.

Hello there all.
So I kinda give up with BT in terms of support any longer, their answer to our issue is to continue to send out a replacement hub 3 and all that does is nothing.
The issue is this, our wireless will just randomly explode and start going haywire, it'll go off and on off and on overloading all wireless connections to it. For example, when this happens I can sit and watch on any wireless device in the household, all the avaliable wireless connections going away and coming back. Just open your wireless list, that shows all wireless locations you can connect to, and then imagine all of them going off and on like a flickering light.
We've watched this happen on every single device we own, we've even changed the wireless cards in the computers and still to no avail, as I said above BT's 'solution' to this problem is to just keep sending out 'brand new' (Yeah, right, they are all just refurbished gen 1's and I've checked each one for that) BT Hub 3's. This just isn't fixing our problem and seeing as their support just flat out doesn't care to send out an engineer to fix this I turn to you.
We've had this issue for over a year now, and it's infuriating as when it happens no wireless device can use the internet. Too note, we don't lose the wireless connection to the hub, oh no. But we lose the internet through it.
It's like an electrical capaciter reaching over it's limit, parts lose power then others come back on then they go off and others go on. It's like the wireless is being overloaded at these points in time and we cannot pin point it, because ther'es no pattern to it. It's all random..
If anyone can help, that would be amazing!
-Chris.

if you have had a few replacement HH3s and still the same problem then it is unlikely all of the HHs have the exact same fault so maybe you need to look nearer to home in that there is something causing interference to your wifi signal
have you tried moving the router to a different location to see if that makes any difference?

A very strange wired and wireless network issue

Hello,
I have never had any issue at all with my macbook (2008) until this week, I use it both for work and personal use.
Most of time, I'm used to be on customer site, so I use wired and wireless connections depending of the situation....
I have never had any issue at all with wifi neither ethernet connections during three years, until this week... and I can say this is the most strange thing I have ever seen....
Using wired or wireless connection, always the speed of network was really good, at home, many customers, etc never had any problem...
But this week I'm currently out of home, and the hotel where I'm staying I'm having very poor network rate....
Using wireless connection, the download speed is no more than 10kb.... and using ethernet I get less speed... but during the day I'm on customer site, using the ethernet connection and download speed is really good, more than 500k-800k....
I have already tried in the hotel few wifi connections (there are three) and differents wired connections (in diferent rooms) and the download speed is always the same, no more than 10kb...
During this afternoon, I could go into hotel's lab and could connect directly to the router using cable, same speed no more than 10kb....
The most strange thing is on their computers the download speed using wired connection is around 6Mb....
how is possible I'm getting no more than 10kb of download speed when the pc's at hotel using same wired connection gets 6Mb?
I have already deleted current network connections, execute onyx to clear everything, perform dhcp connection, tried manual ip etc, and always the results are the same...
I know there is no problem with the macbook, because it works pretty good at every location I've been... but until this week...
Sincerely I'm getting a little crazy here, I'll appreciate any help!!!
thanks in advance

I've seen something like this on my T400 when it was running Vista. Now that I use Win 7 it's been OK. I rather doubt that your issue is the same but I'm tossing it out here just on the off chance.
Im my case, I had to downgrade my Intel 5300 card to a 5100 (as suggested by a Lenovo 2nd-tier tech) to get things working.
My symptoms were a little different. Wifi was fine until I went back to a wired network. After that, trying to use the same wifi AP as before would end up associated, but no internet access. DHCP wasn't working. The GUI "find" app didn't work as expected either. Some APs showed up, and some didn't.
If I configured for automatic connection to my home AP it would try and fail. Just rebooting at that point would again attempt an automatic connection that would succeed.
What I have noticed now that I run Win 7 is that Access Connections is completely useless. Often the "finder" doesn't show an AP 3 feet away. I didn't notice that this happened after a switch from wired, but maybe.
Are you using Access Connections? If so, you might try uninstalling it.
Sorry I can't be of real help,
Z.
