  • Ethernet network printing- Can't find printers where's bonjour??

    Hi i am attempting to set up two printers to connect to my network of apple computers (an imac a mini server, and a macbook air) through ethernet but none of the computers can find them. I know that you used to be able to find them using bonjour but i don't know if apple dis countinued it or just made it difficult to work with. I need help in finding out how to find the printers because the only options i see are either by usb or ip address help please!

    I'll report on how it works.

  • My ipad doesn't find my printer....

    How do I make my hp 3510 discoverable to my ipad? The wireless printing works from my laptop which has the same wifi settings, but the ipad cannot find the printer????

    Hi Kiwisteve77,
    I understand the Ipad doesn't find the printer.
    Thank you for your reply.
    I will be happy to help you with this.
    Try turning the wi-fi off and on again on the Ipad.
    If that doesn't work turn the Ipad off and on again.
    Check to make sure it is connected to the proper network.
    Power cycle the router, Ipad and the printer and try it again if you are still having issues.
    I have provided a document for How to Use Apple's AirPrint Over a Wireless Network. Go to the section What if a 'No AirPrint Printers Found' message displays on my Apple device?
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Can't install / find printers.

    Can’t install / find printers.
    Mac newbie here. At home, my printer is on a network and my iMac finds it. Now i have a new iMac at work and I can’t find / install any printers from the network.
    in the printer utility no default printers are listed.
    I select More Printers, change my workgroup to my company group, and a list of users appear.
    I select a user that has a printer i want access to and select the printer to which is listed to that user. I send a print job and nothing happens.
    My old PC has a laserJet attached and I can’t even see that. They are shared as other users are able to use all the printers.
    I would think this is due to either Windows environment, or the fact i’m network printing; however it works fine at home.
    Any thoughts? They are all HP printers of various styles.
    Thanks!!!

    Intel iMac Mac OS X (10.4.6) HP Printers shared on a network

    I still can't see the printer on my old PC and printing to any other printer still generates no output, and the pending job of "Remote Downlevel Document" is in the queue.
    I have a G5 iMac at home and have no problem finding a printer, over the network, to the PC. Although that is a Brother printer/fax/copier and I don't have any other brand printer to try in the office.
    Is this an HP issue?
    Very appreciative of your continued help.

  • How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg

    How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
    I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

    Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
    If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

  • Printer doesn't operate correctly w/firefox

    printer is very slow when using firefox, but not when using internet explorer.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == i installed new hpf4400 deskjet printer

    I have an HP Photosmart 7960.  When I want to print something from an email, it doesn't print it all.  If, for example, I print or attempt to print a schedule, it would miss who is on the schedule but have the time of this person that is scheduled.  It would print only parts of it.
    Also, I used to be able to transfer pictures from the card from a camera into a port from the printer and on to the computer.  Right now, the printer doesn't allow that.  A message in red comes on stating the printer does not recognize the computer.
    Sorry I wasn't very explicit before.

  • My EPSON printer doesn't print correctly the colors

    Hi, I've an EPSON Stylus Photo R200 installed on my MacBook (OSX 10.4.11)... From some days, my printer doesn't print correctly the colors: I lunched the utility application and I saw that the printer doesn't print the "light magenta" (that's the light pink I think); that's strange, because his inkjet refill is not empty. I tried to do the clean process, but it don't start because there isn't enough ink in another two ink refill (yellow and light cyan, that aren't empty however).
    Some ideas?
    Message was edited by: Mac Shunsuke

    I have similar issue before and it's really frustrated to use small capacity cartridges in my R200 and R280 printers. I ended up to get a very very decent ink system from InkRepublic.com
    these two systems have been working for me for few years and I never ever have to worry about the ink cost and printing problem.
    There are couple of good reviews and workflow here

  • Printer doesn't work

    I have a Deskjet 930C USB printer. It has worked in Archlinux for over a year.
    Then, it started doing useless things. These include: cutting of a part of the text on the left side, no matter what printing driver I use, no matter with what program I print something, and, printing two pages over each other (when I really put an empty sheet of paper in it first).
    Now, it has entered an even worse state: it doesn't print at all anymore. If I try to print something, no matter what printer driver I select or with what program I print something, there's just a print icon from KDE in the bottom right that stays there forever.
    In Windows, it can still print perfectly and without problems.
    First of all, are there known recent printing problems for hp printers with one of the upgrades? And are there any known solutions?
    Second, I'd like to uninstall *everything* that has to do with printing, from the most low level driver things to the most highest level printing tools. And then I want to reinstall them all again. This in the hope that it'll work properly again after that.
    So, what things do I have to uninstall and reinstall for this?
    EDIT: some more info: here's what hp-toolbox sais:
    toolbox [ERROR]: Unable to communicate with device: hp:/usb/DeskJet_930C?serial=HU1251J15CJJ
    toolbox [WARNING]: Device not found
    toolbox [ERROR]: Unable to communicate with device: hp:/usb/DeskJet_930C?serial=HU1251J15CJJ
    toolbox [WARNING]: Device not found
    This, while the printer is plugged into USB and powered on.

    Possible problem with the order of uevents.  Perhaps the order of usb devices which could be averted with rc.conf.

  • Help: printing skips dialog box option when printing from the finder

    Anyone else running into the issue where you select a file from the finder, choose Command + P and instead of getting the print dialog box you get the file printed to the default printer?  It is really annoying when you want to select print options or change printers.  Is there a preference setting to force the print dialog box to open when choosing print from the finder.  Currently I have to open the file in an app like Preview and then choose Command + P to get this to happen.
    Any insights appreciated!

    Is this recent that you are not seeing the print dialog when printing from Finder?
    There isn't a preferences setting to force the dialog that I know of, but you can do a drag and drop to a printer while holding the option key - that'll give you access to the print dialog.

  • Photosmart 5520 mostly doesn't find my WIFI

    Bought a Photosmart 5520 yesterday and installed it on my MacBook Pro (Mac OSX 10.8). Everything works well, but the printer hardly recognizes our WIFI-router. In a few moments he'll print some files, but mostly he doesn't find our WIFI and therefore doesn't work wireless.
    There's nothing wrong with our WIFI or router, because all our devices (MacBook Pro, two iPhones 4, iPad 2 and Apple TV) always works very well without any problems.
    Somewhere I read that it's possible that it has to do something with MAC filtering on your router (in my case a Linksys). But I checked that and MAC filtering is disabled on the router.
    What's the problem? Why does the Photosmart hardly never find my perfectly working WIFI-router?

    There are a few things to check on your router:
    1. Make sure that 802.11g is enabled.
    2. Make sure that the router is broadcasting its network name (SSID).
    3. Change the router channel to 11 and make sure the printer has a good signal according to its Wireless Test on the front panel of the printer.
    4. Do not use WEP.

  • The printer doesn´t show up at all

    My problem: I have tried to install my HP photosmart 8050 printer on my new IMAC version 10.9.4 but it doesn´t show up anywhere on the mac. Not in the menu for softwareupdate or in the map for printers. Its usb connected.  I´ve have also tried with the bluetooth function but with no result. What can i do? I have been to the HP support site and found the instructions there and downloaded the relevant driver, but when the printer doesn`t show up its a dead end street:^) Kind regards MummySound

  • When I launch I photo it wants me to choose a library but it doesn't find one which is impossible, because i still have no storage. before i can clean up i want to back up them. how can i find my library?

    When I launch I photo it wants me to choose a library but it doesn't find one which is impossible, because i still have no storage. before i can clean up i want to back up them. how can i find my library?

    You may very well have damaged your library - or even your system by not having adaquate storage available
    And never select all of the pitcture and move them - that will destroy your library - the iPhotolibrary is a SQLite database and must always be kept intact as a single entity -
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • How do you split the print job across multiple printers to shorten the prin

    i
    Can any one you provide some information on below questions.
    Check printing by XML template (XML Publisher).
    1. When printing checks, how do you print the checks from one printer tray and the overflow remittance pages from another printer tray?
    2. When printing a large batch of checks using XML and PDF output, how do you split the print job across multiple printers to shorten the print time?
    I appreciate if you could give some information on above 2 questions.
    Regards,
    Ramarao.

    Probably sould just do them individually.

  • ICal search doesn't find anything

    when I test this by creating a future event with a particular word in it, then return to today and search for that word in the little "search" box at top right, it doesn't find that word.
    Why not?

    I have also had long standing problems of not being able to search for calendar events, either from within iCal or Spotlight or using mdfind.
    None of the suggested solutions worked for me (removing Calendar Cache file, adding and removing folders or drives to the privacy section of Spotlight to re-index, or running mdimport ~/Library/Calendars.
    One clue was that mdimport -d2 ~/Library/Calendars would not even look at the individual .ics files within any .calendar/Events directory (no output). I suspected that this was due to LaunchServices not associating these files properly with iCal. My system had previously been upgraded all the way from 10.0 through 10.6.
    What finally worked for me was the following, using the Terminal, rebuilding completely the LaunchServices database:
    rm /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices*.csstore
    *defaults delete com.apple.LaunchServices*
    *sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServi ces.framework/Support/lsregister -kill*
    *sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServi ces.framework/Support/lsregister -R -domain local -domain system -domain user*
    (note the capital -R in the previous line.)
    This step will take a few minutes to complete, with a message about I/O throttleing
    reboot (not sure if that is necessary)
    *mdimport -d2 ~/Library/Calendars*
    This last command should now show the successful indexing of all calendar events.
    After this search finally worked again for me!
    Regards,
    Heiko
