Airport Extreme issue with printer

I recently switched to an Airport Extreme to replace my linksys router. Since then, I am no longer able to find my Epson Artisan 810 printer when I try to install it. (I'd been printing with it for about a year prior). My PC has no problem with printing and all of my devices are able to find the wireless signal with no issues. I also added OS X Lion at the same time. Now I am unable to print through my Macbook Pro. Has anyone had similar issues and found a solution. Thank you!!

I just spent several hours linking an Epson Workforce 600 printer to a new Airport Extreme network. On the printer, I reset the printer to its original settings. It was then recognized by the Epson setup software program.

Airport Extreme sporadically drops printer

Printer: HP DeskJet 6540
Base Station Firmware: Problem present on all firmware revs (most recent two or three)
Issue: At irregular intervals printing fails to the printer from wired and wireless clients. Going to the Airport Utility the Airport Extreme reports no printer.
Fix: In Airport Utility->Manual Setup->Printers uncheck the Bonjour checkbox, click "Update", wait for Airport Extreme to reset, printer reappears as connected, then recheck Bonjour checkbox. Printing works again. Seems to be occurring with greater frequency.
Anyone else seeing this, or is it my base station flaking out?

So I hooked the printer up to my iMac via USB and turned on printer sharing. Much more stable. Easier to manage. Still would prefer to use my Airport since it is an always on device. If anyone shuts down the iMac, the printer is no longer available.

Setting up my Airport Extreme properly with multiple routers on a home network

I have a 4 bedroom house that over the years has had router after router added in different rooms. I recently bought an airport extreme and an airport express as I am getting sick of not being able to network everything as well as to have one strong wifi.
So I have set up the Extreme in my office and the express at the far end of the house and it's doing wonders in boosting the wireless signal. This is what I am trying to solve:
How do I make all the wired routers apart of my wired and wireless network? The router/modem that was installed by Verizon obviously should stay. I read in another forum that NAT should be turned on and all other routers shouldn't but would be bridged. I logged into the admin settings for the router and couldn't find any place to change this.
As you can tell, I am no IT. So I am sure this may all be confusing. My ultimate goal is to have a shared hard drive on my airport extreme and shared printer on my express and all computers on the same network, communicating to each other. Currently I have 3 routers + airport extreme and express all connected.
Hope someone has the patients to help me out.
Thanks.

Good diagram!
In that case you definitely want the D-Link to act as a switch, and its manual describes how to do it:
(page 10)
Connect to Another Router
If you are connecting the D-Link router to another router to use as a wireless access point and/or switch, you will have to do the following before connecting the router to your network:
Disable UPnPTM
Disable DHCP
Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network. The LAN ports on the router cannot accept a DHCP address from your other router.
To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:
Plug the power into the router. Connect one of your computers to the router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable. Make sure your IP address on the computer is 192.168.0.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254). Please see the Networking Basics section for more information. If you need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before making any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to receive an IP address automatically in which case you will not have to do anything to your computer.
Open a web browser and enter http://192.168.0.1 and press Enter. When the login window appears, set the user name to Admin and leave the password box empty. Click Log In to continue.
Click on Advanced and then click Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
Click Setup and then click Network Settings. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server server checkbox. Click Save Settings to continue.
Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet mask of your network. Click Save Settings to save your settings. Use this new IP address to access the configuration utility of the router in the future. Close the browser and change your computer’s IP settings back to the original values as in Step 1.
Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and reconnect your computer to your network.
Connect an Ethernet cable in one of the LAN ports of the router and connect it to your other router. Do not plug anything into the Internet port of the D-Link router.
You may now use the other 3 LAN ports to connect other Ethernet devices and computers. To configure your wireless network, open a web browser and enter the IP address you assigned to the router. Refer to the Configuration and Wireless Security sections for more information on setting up your wireless network.
While reading the above bear in mind the Verizon box is your router. Don't overlook any of the details in these instructions - read all of it and understand its implications. If I were doing it the first thing I'd want to know is how to reset the DIR-601 to factory defaults since I'd be sure to muck it up about a dozen times before getting it right.
It sounds as though your Express is configured correctly. It is providing a wireless access point for your wired network, the one created by your Verizon router.
The optimal configuration for this design is to configure the Express to create a network using the exact same wireless network name and password as the one created by your Verizon router, otherwise you will have two wireless networks. Leave its "channel" on "automatic" so it won't conflict with whatever the Verizon is using.
It will look a little like this:
I'm assuming some of your devices still need 802.11g so the "radio mode" will most likely need to be b/g compatible.
When everything is up and running, experiment with the wireless transmitter power for the Verizon router as well as the Express. It's best to use the least amount that will work for you, so as not to create needless wireless interference for everyone else. This also minimizes the possibility of people piggybacking on - or trying to hack into - your wireless network.
As far as getting your Windows computer to see your external HD, I haven't a clue. I'm sure it's possible but I'm not a Windows expert.

AirPort Disk - Issue with Windows Vista Ultimate

I setup an AirPort Extreme network, with a shared USB Drive and so far I've only found one issue.
When attempting to create new files and renaming them, or rename pre-existing files on the shared USB Drive using Windows Vista Ultimate I get the following Yes/No dialog:
"The Z:\ folder does not exist. The file may have been moved or deleted. Do you want to create it?"
Then there's information about the mapped drive. If I click "Yes" in the dialog, then the dialog goes away for a moment then pops back up. I can't create a new file directly on the shared AirPort Disk, nor can I modify or create and rename new files on the disk without getting stuck in the loop.
I can, however, create a new file locally on the Vista box and copy it up, and I can even create a new directory locally with files and copy them up without issue.
Now, the issue does not happen when I use my MacBook or my XP machine. This issues seems to be a Windows Vista issue only, and I haven't seen anyone else reporting it.
Here's information about the disk share implementation:
- The disk is password protected (turning on accounts really breaks the ability of Windows Vista to work with the disk)
- The disk is Mac Formatted with Case Sensitivity, and Journaling
This works like a top for OS X and Windows XP, just not Vista. I'd like to getting working properly for all machines.
If anyone's got some advice on this one, I'd love to hear it.

Here's a little more information regarding the issue:
- It's an AirPort Extreme Wireless Router with Firmware ver. 7.1
- The Windows Vista Ultimate PC has the most recent Microsoft patches to-date, and has the most recent Apple Airport Utilities Software to-date.

why is streaming to my sony TV slowing to .4 mbps from 8.ombps while watching a netflix movie? this has become a problem in the last 2 months. This also happens on another TV but not concurrently..

please advise

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Acrobat 9 Pro issues with printing and now updating !!! :(

hello
I had an issues with printing from my gmail account or from windows live mail
so I made a complete re-installation
now I am stuck with version 9.3.0 and when I check for updates I get a message
UPDATER IS ALREADY RUNNING
only... it's not running and nothing is updating !
I made a restart... just in case... it did not change anything
as to the printing issue, in case some of you have met it and cleared it...(hope)
this was with version 9.5.0
I get no error message but no pdf is created, only a text document with this :
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[Page: 1]%%
72gmvi not found, using Courier.
44dcmta not found, using Courier.

%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
not a good start for my week... I hope yours is nicer
I'm running Win7 Ultimate x64

thanks Mylenium
the font association problem is something recent though, since I used acrobat to print mails directly from my gmail account previously...
it's galling but I installed a free pdf printer which does the job, I needed copies of these mails urgently !
as to the update issue, I see no aum.exe, msiexec.exe or setup.exe running... but that's quite above my head... do I look for those exact processes or are they generic names for processes ?
does my question make sense ????

HT1145 The airport extreme used with my iMac is not seeing my other devices...anybody, please?

The airport extreme used with my iMac is not seeing my iPhone 5, iPad (third generation) or my windows based PC. When I open the airport utility it shows only the internet and my iMac. It does not identify the others. Any thoughts? Thanks

Hi DaileyT,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:
When do Apple wireless devices appear in AirPort Utility?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3624
Troubleshooting missing devices
If your Apple wireless device doesn't show up in the wireless device list, try the following:
Check to see that the device is turned on.
Check that the device is connected to the network via Ethernet or in wireless range of your computer.
Make sure the device has had adequate time to start up and become discoverable. In the case of Apple wireless devices that are not connected via Ethernet, AirPort Utility scans for new devices once every 15 seconds. From the time a device becomes discoverable (typically around one minute), it could take up to another 15 seconds before the device is displayed in the list.
If you have just configured a new Apple Wireless device, upgraded the firmware, selected "Restore Default Settings..." or have hard reset and configured an Apple wireless device and it does not show up in AirPort Utility after restarting, you may have an incorrect setting. You may want to hard reset the unit and set it up again.
If you are connected to a specific wireless network, all Apple wireless devices which make up that network will appear. However, if you "Restore Default Settings..." from AirPort Utility, or hard reset a device that is out of physical wireless range of the computer, you will need to move the device closer the computer to configure it again.
Best of luck,
Mario

Issues with printing purchase order

Dear friends,
I'm having some issues with printing purchase orders.
Normally when I create a purchase order via ME21N and then when I save the purchase order it then gets automatically printed.
Suddenly it is not anymore working. I have created a purchase order this morning and it did not get printed. I get the message "frontend is not available"when i check the spool in SP01
The funny think is if i call up the spool nr via SP01and then do a reprint then i'm able to reprint.
What can be possibly the issue that I can't print the purchase order when I create the purchase order via ME21 when I save the purchase order? Can you help me with any guide on where I need to check why the PO is not printing immediatelly when i create the PO via ME21N?
kind regards,
Camilla

hello all,
thanks so far for your reply.
i have checked today my user settings and that shows that my prints should go to LOCL (local default printer)
The output conditions fpr purchase order have also LOCL (local printer)
The weird thing is that I can print other reports to the default printer without any issues. The issue arise when I create a purchase order via ME21N. Normally when I save the PO it automatically prints. So no manual print instructions are required from my side. Because if I give manual instructions then I'm able to print the purchase order.
Is it possible that the automatic printing is switched off and that it only prints when I hit manually the print button?
Is the automatic printing something that is maintained in SPAD?
kind regards and thanks for your help sofar

Issue with printing production order after changes through CO02

Hi,
Currently I have one issue with printing production order changes through CO02. If I go for print, all the operations are captured in printout. But after the print, if I add any new operations to this production order, and then go for print, its not capturing the newly added operations. Also, there is information popup coming "Copies will be printed for order. Original list already printed". This message effectively means, even after changes, when I go for print functionality, its just going for printing copies of original printed list.
Can anyone help me out to get the newly added operations reflected in the print through CO02 ?
Regards,
Shiva

I'm trying to decide between the time capsule & airport extreme. With either option, will i not have air play?

I'm trying to decide between the time capsule & airport extreme. With either option, will i not have air play? I have an IMAC, MACBOOK, 2 Apple TVs, 3 iPhones...

AIrplay to digital or analogue devices like speakers or hifi system is only available in Express. Or Apple TV.
The TC or Extreme will pass airplay protocol just fine to your ATV.
The Extreme and TC and now identical apart from the TC having an internal hard disk.

i have an imac g4 purchased Dec 2003 runnung OS 10.5.8. It runs fine with airport off, but when I turn airport on it freezes with the black page, "restart by holding power key . . ." I swapped the airport extreme card with the one in my ibook G4 (purchased same date and running same OS). No change in operation.
I am running wifi from verizon. Recently changed from mifi2200 to jetpak 4620 in a 3G location. Ibook running fine, desktop freezes. If I can boot desktop in safe mode and get airport turned off in time. then I can reboot regularly and imac runs flawlessly with no wireless.Have run disk utilities and TechTool Pro rebuild etc, but nothing has worked. How do I fine the culprit?

the power logix thing was really sad. apple changed so much after 10.4.8 that there wasn't a viable way to patch the software.
That statement is precisely why I don't believe in blindly updating the OS, especially in a non-standard machine.
We can't expect third parties to support us forever, and it is shameful to break something that works fine, except that we updated the OS....
I think that any upgrade or modification to a machine or the OS greatly increases the risk of trouble or incompatibility with current configuration and "new" system files.
After all, the component or software could only be tested as far as the current OS version when the component or software was released.
Beyond that, we are all "beta testing".
Following a beta tester protocol, and applying updates to a cloned system drive first, is a prudent way to approach updates, and not only for older, heavily modified machines.
After 10.4.8 and moreso with Leopard, the focus is primarily on Intel architecture, not PPC architecture.
Like it or not, we are all updating to the abyss of the extinction of our machines, unless we can be satisfied with the last stable version of OS that works well with our hardware and software.
I wish they would include the latest pkgs at least with software update.
Yes, having individual packages, rather than lump "OS X 10.x.x" updates would be nice.
This way, one could update as one sees fit. That is to say, for example, fix the Quicktime, but leave my Network alone, etc., etc.
In all fairness, Apple does provide for some breakdown of updates, but I believe there is much room for improvement, especially, as you point out, with regard to the core services portion of the OS.
Until then, I'll leave Software Update disabled.......

Will the airport extreme work with Iphone 4 and Ipod 3 gen without a pc or mac.

You can setup an Airport device using the Apple Airport Utility for iPhone
Download it for free in the App Store on your iPhone...
It's under "Utilities" and the "Top Free" utilities.

Issue with printing to a network photocopier

We are a small school where the teachers all have Macbook Pro laptops. For a while we have been having intermittent issues with printing to the Photocopier, today is an example.
Teacher tried to print, worked fine, then tried again 15 min later, received message Printer is in use (I was standing next to it and it wasn't in use!) tried again 10 min later, printed fine.
Teacher tried to print, spooled for about 5 min then printed, tried again, printed fine.
From the CUPS error log there are the following:
- The Printer is in use
- ICC Profile "/Library/Printers/Sharp/Profiles/SS0HIN0.icc" does not exist.
- Remote host did not accept data file(32)
- The printer did not respond
- Stopping unresponsive job
- The printer is not responding
They are all on wireless. There is no network issue as I can ping the photocopier, get onto the Internet etc.
They don't print via a server, they all have the photocopier installed on their macbooks as an IP printer using LDP.
Thanks

You'll need to manually create the folder and install the profiles. From the finder select Go, Go to Folder. Enter "/Library/Printers/Sharp/Profiles" without the quotation marks, Go. You might have to manually create the Profile folder. You can download this disk image from Sharp that contains the icc files here; http://www.sharpusa.com/ForBusiness/DocumentSystems/MFPsPrinters/MX4110N.aspx?vi ew=drivers
Drag and drop the icc files from /MX-C26/Profiles to /Library/Printers/Sharp/Profiles
Also make sure you install the drivers from MX-C26 for the appropriate version of OS X you are running.
Hope this is clear.
