Airprint with HP C4180 All-in-one Printer

I am currently thinking about upgrading my iPhone 3GS to the 4.2 software and undecided. If I do so, would I be able to print from iPhone to my HPC4180 All-in-one Printer?
In order to use Airprint, do you have to have an Airport?
Thanks in advance.

  • HP C4180 All-In-One printer

    I have a simple network. One XP computer with HP C4180 All-In-One printer. One Mac Powerbook X 10.4. The two computers communicate via a wireless network.
    Everything is setup fine. The Powerbook can see the XP printer via the Mac Printer Utility, but the Printer Description is not included in the pull-down list of computers.
    I installed the HP C4180 Printer driver on the Mac, but the Printer Description is still not included in the pull-down list.
    In the pull-down list, I can choose "Other...", and I am re-directed to a pop-up dialog to search for a file. I'm assuming that I am searching for a PPD file?
    Did the Printer Driver install a PPD file somewhere on the MAC? Where is it? Will the PPD file work as a driver for a networked printer (or just a USB printer connected to the mac?)?
    Thank you.

    Hello Steve,
    The drivers for the HP have been designed for direct USB connection and will automatically add the printer when it is connected. The drivers haven't been designed for this type of network connection, hence they don't appear under the HP list, nor will you be able to browse for a PPD.
    What you need to do is use one of the included GIMP (Gutenprint) drivers to print via your network. The trick is finding which one will be compatible with the C4180. This could be just a case of trying several different ones, unless someone out there is aware of which driver would work best.

  • I have an HP Photosmart C4180 all in one printer scanner and copier, I can't figure out how to scan more than one page at a time and then send as a PDF file via email

    I have an HP Photosmart C4180 all-in-one, printer, scanner and copier.  I can't figure out how to scan more than one page?  It will only let me do one page at a time and then I have difficulty sending pages 1, 2 and 3 as one docuement.  Any ideas??
    Thank you, Jetteski

    Hello Jetteski,
    Hello Jetteski, Thanks for the post.

  • IPod Touch conflict with HP 6500 All-in-One printer...

    Does anyone know of anyone who has an iPod Touch installed with an HP all-in-one printer and running under Windows 7 64 bit? If so I'd like to hear from them and see if I can pick their brains a bit. In fact, I'd like to hear from anyone who has an iPod Touch working with an HP all-in-one on a desktop system, no matter the OS.
    Originally I tried to get them to work together under a 32 bit Windows 7 Premium build on an MSI G31M3-F V2 mobo but couldn't get the iPod and the All-in-One to work together. Either the iPod wouldn't synch or the printer would disconnect.
    Yesterday I started with a Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit build on an Asus P5Q-EM mobo with just the HP 6500 All-in-One and the printer and all of its functions were working perfectly.
    Then I plugged in the iPod, after having installed the newest 64 bit version of iTunes, and it detected the device but wouldn't complete the driver installation. I powered down the HP 6500 and the iPod installation completed.
    I then turned the printer on and it appeared to work but the iPod wouldn't complete the sync process unless I turned the printer off.
    Then I changed the drive letter of the HP all-in-one's integrated card reader from "E:" to "G:" and rebooted and it appeared that everything was working. I brought the scanner up but didn't actually scan anything but, still, no disconnect messages. Finally, success I thought. Silly me...
    Today my daughter tried to send a fax from the computer. It started the scan, stopped after only partially scanning and said that the printer was disconnected.
    She then rebooted and tried to scan a photo and it did essentailly the same thing -- a partial scan, froze, and then reported the printer offline.
    Uninstalling the iPod Touch device resulted in the printer coming back online and all functions working perfectly.
    There is clearly a conflict at the device/driver assignment level and I don't know if its even anything that I can fix.
    This should not be this hard.
    Has anyone any experience with the iPod Touch running on a desktop that also has an HP All-in-One device installed?

    Finally installed a completely new OS and then, before doing anything else, installed iTunes and connected the iPod. Installed everything else with the HP printer being the very last thing.
    Wa La... Worked as advertised...

  • Trouble with findig printer with Bonjour (HP all in one printer)

    Hi,
    I have a problem with connecting to my HP Printer.
    When the printer and the iMac is booted freshly I can connect to the printer without any problems, also I can find the printer trought the printer browser via Bonjour.
    But after a while the connection is completely lost with the printer, the only way I can connect to the printer is by IP, the dns name (http://HPxxxx.local.) is also not working anymore.
    The only solution is turning off the printer and putting it on again, even sometimes I have to restart the iMac.
    Is it possible a new installed wireless modem/router is cousing this odd behaviour ? Because it looked like the trouble whas coming after the new router was installed.
    When I ping to the printer I can see there are some timeouts from time to time and when the timeouts take too long, the result is that I can't find the printer trough Bonjour anymore.
    Thanks!

    Hi cowla1, 
    I understand you need the drivers for the HP 6500A on a Mac. I can help you but will need some more information.
    I have provided a link for the drivers up to 10.8. The 10.9 drivers show the documentation to run the Apple Updates for the driver install. HP Officejet 6500A e-All-in-One Printer - E710a Drivers.
    Select your operating system, click next and click on the software to download and install.
    Make sure when you add the printer, it shows the printer name and not the printer name + Airprint.
    What operating system are you using? Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • !!!!!!!!!! HP C4180 ALl-IN-ONE printer ON a 175X external jetdirect printserve​r ISSUES

    Hi,
    its my first post here,   so HELLO to all
    i recently bought a printserver,   its a Hp 175x USB external jetdirect printserver  (can these names be any longer pfff)
    And my all in one printer is a HP C4180 .  
    I hooked everything up,  all lights are sollid as they are supposed to be, so no issues there.  If i press the testpage button
    It prints a nice page on the printer,  so all works from printserver to printer.
    BUT,  when i try to print anything from my PC it doenst work.
    I tried running the CD and it cant find the printer in the network.
    I DOUBLE CHECKED ALL WIRES
    What can i do to make everything work??
    The purpose is to be able to use the abbilities  (sorry for the crappy english, im belgian) 
    of the all in one printer in the entire house,  which are about 4-5 PC's.
    So they all have to be able to print and scan.
    HELP PLEASE

    Hello,
    Generally Print Servers are designed to be used for printing purpose. However in certain cases, we can use the EWS to complete the scan process.
    Here is a link to the old forum which discusses the procedure to scan from the EWS.
    http://forums13.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questio​nanswer.do?admit=109447627+1298994065288+28353475&​...
    My suggestion is to get to get a network AIO to get complete functionality.

  • Power problem with my 4620 all in one printer / scanner / fax

    Hi,
    My problem is this. I have a 4620 all-in-one printer / scanner / fax. However, I have discovered this problem.
    Scenario:
    The printer hasn't been used for a day or two but is plugged in still with the light above the power cord on. I want to print a word doc or whatever. I click print. I obtain a message that the computer (via wifi) can't communicate with the printer. Pressing the Power on button on the printer interface doesn't work.
    My solution, I have to disconnect the power supply from the printer,  then reconnect and then press the Power On button.
    This isn't normal I think. I don't think for one minute that I should have to go and disconnect and reconnect the power suppy for it to print etc.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you in advance!!

  • Print Too Small from Photoshop CS4 with HP 8500 All In One Printer

    I'm running Windows XP with CS4 and latest patches and drivers.  When I print an image to my HP 8500 All in one printer, the printout is too small.  Instead of a centered 4 x 6 image on the page I get a 1 x 1-1/4 inch small print of the image in the upper left hand corner.
    I re-installed CS3 and it works perfectly as do any other print options, such as word, etc.  But from Photoshop CS4 I can find no way to print to this printer without the image shrinking in size.  If I print to another printer at the same sitting, the image is fine.  So it's a PS CS4 vs. HP 8500 unique problem I guess.
    I've see this post in other forms and no help as yet.  Does anyone have this one on their radar.  I really like this printer, but it's quite annoying.
    By the way, If I print to a PDF from PS CS4, the pdf file image is fine.  That's another end around for printing also. HMMMM.
    I did contact HP and they put the problem squarely back on Adobe.  No partnership there.
    Thanks,
    Glen

    Will the printer print from any app?
    I know it sounds like a dumb question, but you didn't actually say...  And I admit to looking for software problems on an occasion or two when I had forgotten to plug in cables.

  • Printing with HP PSC1210 All in one printer

    Hello all,
    Anyone out there had any luck finding a driver for the HP PSC1210xi all in one printer with Snow Leopard? I had basic printing functionality under Leopard and would just like to have the same under Snow Leopard. As a workaround, I am able to still print and scan just fine using Windows XP running in VMWare Fusion, so, I am not dead in the water. However, I would like to just get basic printing capability restored in Snow Leopard.
    Thanks all.

    OK, so I have some bad news. FIrst, unfortunately the print drivers for the PSC1210 are not available yet. They will be available at some point in the future through an Apple Software Update. Second, since HP never posted a 10.5 driver package for your device, there is nothing for you to download to try to get things at least functioning.
    That being said, you may have some luck with the Gutenprint drivers or others. There isn't a driver specifically for the PSC 1210, but the one for the PSC 1215 may work.
    HP is aware of the problem, and I know I am trying to do everything in my power to solve it as soon as possible.
    Just trying to help.

  • HT3669 can I use PRIZMO with Lexmark Pro901 all in one printer scaner?

    EVER SINCE I PURCHASED A LEXMARK PRO901 ALL IN ONE PRINTER I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS EVERYTIME I DO AN UP DATE ON MY MAC OR LEXMARK PRINTER THE SACNNER FAILES TO WORK I PURCHASED THIS PRINTER BECAUSE I WAS TOLD I COULD EDIT DOCUMENTS I SCAN USING OCR BUT THIS HAD NOT BEEN THE CASE MOST RECENTLY I AM TOLD LEXMAR WILL NOT WORK WITH OSX 10.8 SO NOT MY ALL IN ONE PRINTER IS A PRINTER THAT IS USLESS TO ME.

    Which printer drivers are you using? I had a real problem with one of these after an upgrade to 10.4.3 that required an archive & install of the OS and a reinstall of the printer and scanner drivers before it would work properly so I suggest you try that first.

  • Printing problem with HP F380 All-in One printer.

    My HP F380 All-in One has stopped printing in colour. Don't know if I've accidentally changed a setting but I've unchecked 'Print in grayscale' and no difference.  Can anyone please advise.

    Hi there,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that your HP F380 has stopped printing in color, and I am happy to help you with this printing issue!
    For further assistance, I will need to know the following:
    If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
    If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
    In the meantime, please take a look through this guide. Streaks or Lines in the Printed Image.

  • Airport extreme base station with Hp 3210 all in one printer

    Just bought and hooked up the above. Using with iBook G4. Still dealing with dial-up unfortunately, but got online just fine. When I tried to print on the above, it immediately dialed up when I hit "print". ?? What's going on?

    I have a pretty old HP all-in-one (G55) printer/scanner/copier device. Plugging it into my AEBS seems to not let me print to it. I have the most recent driver from HP.
    Do you think it's my setup, or is the AEBS somehow not compatible with the older HP devices?
    No the problem is with the HP driver.
    Try using the HPIJS drivers.
    For those with the older base station.
    Use the process outlined here:
    HP Printers (and others) not on compatibility list and Airport Extreme Printing
    http://tech.ifelix.net/1300.html
    Also, is it possible to fax, scan, etc through an all-in-one device plugged into an AEBS?
    No, not via the USB port.
    Can I scan using my all-in-one when it is connected to the USB port of an Airport Express or Airport Extreme Base Station?
