AirPrint and USB connected printer

Hello,
I have bourgth a new HP printer (HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer), run the setup, connect it via USB to my computer (Windows 7).
Now I want to print via AirPrint from my iPad (latest OS). My router is FRITZ!Box 7330.
But how do it? I can not find any instruction how to connect my HP printer to my WiFi. I think I have to select the name of my WiFi and enter the password.? Or should I connect my HP printer with a Ethernet cable to my router FRITZ!Box 7330?
I found no instruction
What can I do to let my HP printer appears in my iPad as an AirPrinter?
How to print via AirPrint?
Thank you for any help or hint!!

Hi,
It does not have wireless card therefore you have to connect to a wireless network to be able to use AirPrint otherwise they can't see each other. Don't ask me why HP did not include a wireless card to this printer.

I can print from my macbook pro using airport express usb connected printer, however my iPad is looking for an airprint printer. Can I direct the iPad to the usb connected printer. Both macbook and iPad confirm a wifi connection through the airport exp.

You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

Can't 'Scan to Email' on USB connected printer to AE (Bridge mode)

Can't 'Scan to Email' on USB connected printer to 2nd AE (in Bridge mode extending wireless network).
Prints fine though.
Printer is set to static IP adress (192.168.0.50).
Upstream Router is: 192.168.0.1 (this is connected to first AE).
When the printer was previously attached (by ethernet cable) to 1st AE, everything was working fine and I could login to printer Admin page via Safari by tying IP Address.

Only the print function is supported when a multi-function device is connected to the USB port on an AirPort router.
Advanced features like scan, copy, maintenance, etc are not supported at the USB port.

Connecting to USB connected printer via LPD

Hi there,
Does anyone know if you can access a USB attached printer using the LPD protocol? I cannot find this in the Time Capsule documentation.
I'm helping a Yosemite user where Bonjour is not working and thus the USB connected printer is not being advertised in order to add it.
How to get Yosemite to see new printer driver for Canon via Bonjour
For other brands, the USB port has a name like Port1 or PR1. So I would like to know if the Time Capsule supports such a connection.
Thanks
PaHu

Hello PAHU. I'm thrilled to have run across you on the Apple site. Your post (below) is exactly what I need help with:
"Rather than use Bonjour, which seems to have a problem for some users who have updated to Yosemite, you can use one of the IP protocols included with OS X. To do so you will need to find the IP address the printer is using. If you need help with that, reply with the model of Canon you have.
With the IP address noted, open Printers & Scanners and click the plus button to add. Select the IP icon and enter the Canon IP address in the Address field. Change the Protocol to LPD and leave the Queue blank. Change the Name to the model of Canon and then in the Use menu, select the appropriate Canon driver for your model. Click the Add button to complete the printer creation and then see if you can print."
Kindly please tell me how to find my printer's IP address. I am desperately trying to reconnect to my Canon PIXMA MP500 since upgrading to Yosemite. I will be in your debt!
Thank you most kindly!

I had an update message on my phone and I clicked yes to update. Now the phone has a picture of itunes and usb connection, but can't be used. itunes says I have to restore my phone, but will lose all the data. Is there anything else I can do? I really don't want to lose all my pictures and other data.

It's in recovery mode. There is nothing left on the phone at all. If you didn't back it up before you started, your data is gone.
you have no choice but to restore at this point.

All of a sudden my personal hot spot isn't working. It only comes up with Bluetooth and USB connection options. Why would that be?

HP USB-connected printer not showing up, no way to add it???

I upgraded to Leopard and lost the ability to scan from my HP PSC 2210. I know this is because HP haven't got around to writing new software for Leopard yet, so I'm waiting for them to release this. I was just happy that I could still print via the 2210 by just using the Leopard supplied print driver (may have been a generic one).
I've had trouble printing recently and deleted the printer from my list of printers. When I try to add it back via print and fax manager, it doesn't show up in the default list (even though it's connected via USB). If I select More Printers, all I get is "HP IP Printing" as an option - according to apple's support page, I should have a list of printers here (and I'm sure I used to). I don't even have a generic printer option.
What can I do to install the printer now? The driver on HPs website is only for OSX 10.3, it says use the apple ones for tiger and leopard.
I've tried unplugging, replugging, rebooting etc...

Hi! It may have been just that plugging in the usb cable when it wanted you to caused it to recognize it. The computer senses when something is plugged in and the installer may have needed to be at that point and have the cable plugged in at that precise time in order to complete the install. Heck if I knew the answer to that sorta question I could be an expert. (An expert you know is anyone that's 50 miles from home!). Anyway, always glad to help. Tom

Cant access usb connected printer?

I'm unable to print over a printer usb connected to an airport extreme.

Not all printers are compatible with the USB port on the AirPort Extreme and there is no "official" compatibility list available, so you need to keep that in mind.
If you are using Windows XP, have you installed Bonjour for Windows on the PC? If yes, please provide any error messages that you have received.
Please list the steps that you have already taken to configure things so that we don't ask you to perform things that you have already done.

Printing from a WinXP PC to an iMacG5 USB connected printer

My iP4000 is attached to my iMacG5 computer via USB and prints well when the print message is engaged from the iMacG5. The problem is that the printer refuses to print when the print request is made from my WinXP PC via home network. The WinXP PC is conneced to the iMacG5 via a Linksys wireless router. I followed the WinXP directions and used the "printers and fax" add printer wizard. It found the correct printer name and engaged file sharing. The canon printer utility says a print was being completed with no errors, however, no print has been made and nothing comes out of the printer. I have removed the print driver program and reinstalled it on my WinXP PC with the same results. How can I correct this problem?

I have follwed the instructions provided in the html link but I still can not get my Lexmark 5470 to print. I even tried to add a printer using CUPS but that is not working either. Printer works great on the Mac and it will print if directly connected to the PC. I can not get it to print over my wireless network. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Zen V Plus and USB Connect

Hello everyone. First off... I love the look, feel, and design of the Zen V plus. I'm hoping to eventually get to compliment the actual functionality of it. It has been a long day of hurry up and wait since I sped off to Circuit City early this afternoon for the Zen V plus. I'm just DYING to test it out, but it seems there is a major stumbling block. Let me give you a step by step run down of what has gone on since I can't seem to find a solution in the other posts I've read:
I put the installation disc and successfully installed the software on it.
After installation, I connected the zen v plus to the USB port and it wasn't long before I saw the battery symbol, complete with lightning bolt to show that it was charging. I also noticed that it was "docked", and I saw the USB symbol on the screen of the mp3 player. The button lights were glowing on and off. No problems yet...
I checked to see if you could sync songs while it charged - and it didn't recognize the player.
Around the 4 hour later mark, it DID recognize the player, and allowed me to rip and sync my Maroon 5 CD. I decided to leave and let it charge fully before making any other attempts.
I come home, and the mp3 player has been charging for approximately 6.5 hours. The lights are no longer flashing, and it has appeared to shut off, which I assumed meant it was done charging.
I unplug - attempt to turn on - and nothing. It's dead. Now...it's not being recognized at all.
I'm not good with electronics really, and never pretended to be, but something tells me the USB connection is weird. My brother owns a PSP - and sometimes it doesn't want to read *his* device either. I'm wondering if perhaps it did recognize the device long enough to give me confidence that it was charging, and then lost the usb connection at some point. (It's highly doubtful that my pc went into any sort of sleep/power save mode because there is almost always someone on the computer here.)
For what it's worth, I am using WMP 0, Windows XP (service pack 2), and have tried ALL usb ports (front and back) to get some juice into this thing. The computer just won't recognize it now. I plug it in and hit the power button, and it won't show me so much as a sign of life.
Any suggestions

I had this exact same problem. you should see a little plug on the battery when its connected to the computer, you are seeing a lightning bolt because your V Plus has an old Firmware version on it. Head to the Support->Downloads section and download the latest (..03 I think). This fixed most of the problems I was having.

My question is, how do I restore my ipod touch after getting rid of all content which it had on it and now has a full battery and usb connection and itunes?

I 'gutted' my ipod yesterday, and I am trying to restore playability and get away from the usb connection with itunes!!

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IOS Airprint and Adobe AIR print capabilities

Hi everybody!
I'm new to this forum and I'm exploring the capabilties of printing a part of a website via the iPad/iPhone. The special deal here however is that I don't want the print dialog window to appear. The user hits send and the document prints on a network printer, that's what I'm in search of.
From what I understood it is not possible to bypass the print dialog box in webkit. So I cannot use a mobile framework like JQTouch. From AIR 2.5 onwards it is possible to allow printing of documents without the dialog box appearing. At least, that's what I read. Also, it is possible to convert an AIR application into a native iPhone/iPad app using Packager for Iphone. Does that man that an app compiled with the PFI is capable of retrieving a list of installed network printers and allows for (parts of) pages to be printed without dialog interference? Did anybody put this to a test already and did it work?
Thanx in advance for all thoughts on this subject!
Regards,
Maarten

Haven't verified, but I've heard that Apple quietly removed shared printer
support from iOS 4.x. With that change Airprint supposedly only works
w/those new HP printers featuring ePrint support. Just a heads up...
