Anyone else had success with Kodak 5100 printing from Time Capsule?

So I recently bought a Time Capsule and until now have been happily printing from USB port on PC and now on Mac.
We were going to buy a wireless printer but found out that the Time Capsule supports that capability by connecting a printer to the USB on the Time Capsule.
So, set it all up, connected my Kodak 5100 and it appears to see it and lists the printer in the print utility on my Mac as location "Time Capsule".
Printer is on, paper in, ink levels ok.... print a test page and my Mac thinks it's printing but the Kodak 5100 Easyshare (!!) is doing nothing!
Having searched the blogs for a while, and mindful that the Kodak 5100 is a couple of years old now, I eventually found a solution that appears to work!!
You can download an older software for the 5100 here http://www.userdrivers.com/Printer/Kodak-All-in-One-Printer-Software-3-5-for-Mac -OS-X/download/
I have to thank someone else for suggesting this back in 2009 on another post on this forum but I can't find the post so thank you whomever it is, this still works! When you set up the driver, you need to select that you are connecting to the printer through another Mac - I think the only other option I had was to select USB connection. Once you are in, you'll notice that the software is not as user friendly as the latest versions but if you can print wirelessly from your Mac, then I'd like to think you won't care about the UI of the printer software!
I've only just done this and tested with a colour excel from MS Excel for Mac so will let you know if anything else doesn't work!

I've tried using an ethernet connection. It does work faster and I seem to get more files over, but it STILL eventually hangs. I've given up with Time Capsule and now backup to a Lacie 1Tb disk. It would nice to know what is going wrong you Apple guys!

  • Anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find my provider. I swapped SIMs with another iPhone 4 on ios 4 to confirm device problem.

    Has anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find AT&T, my provider. I swapped SIM cards with another iPhone 4 running ios 4 and established this is a device problem, not a SIM card problem.

    Does the device get any signal? 
    Sounds like the device may have had a hardware failure.  If it is out of warranty, the only option is the Out of Warranty replacement.
    AppleCare is only an option if it is still under the original warranty.

  • HT3702 has anyone else had promblems with apple itunes debiting your account unauthorized!

    Has anyone else had problems with apple itunes debiting your account unauthorized!

    I have also experienced this. I've downloaded the 'No Surprises' ringtone by Radiohead three times and every time I get charged for the ringtone by iTunes and every time it disappears after a while. This is really strange... I haven't talked to anyone at Apple about this, but I checked these forums out just now and, it seems, I'm not the only one with this problem.
    I'm using my brand new iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 8.1.1 and I'm thinking it's a software-related problem too...

    You have to go into your Gmail account settings.
    Then Security.
    Then turn ON 2-Step Verification
    Follow the instructions to link a cell phone to your google account. They will text you a secondary code and once you've entered that your 2-step verification will be set up.
    Then you should have the option on the bottom of the page to add a device. Call it apple tv and then it will generate a secondary code specifically for your Apple TV.
    On the Apple TV itself, ultimately I think you have to enter just the first part of your e-mail address (before the @gmail.com) as your Youtube login username.
    Then you should enter your gmail account password.
    Apple TV will tell you it is incorrect.
    Then, retry and enter the long secondary password that google generated for the apple tv.
    That should do it.

    Anyone else had their credit card details hacked from iTunes today?
    My bank contacted me to check on unusual purchases following my iTunes purchases this morning. I have never had my credit card details hacked before and I do a lot of purchases online. Following me giving iTunes my credit card details someone made a purchase to Air Egypt and UAE. Fortunately my bank contacted me before more purchases were made.
    I won't be giving my new credit card details to iTunes

    Contact your Credit Card company immediately. They'll explain the charge or reverse it.

  • How CAN I PRINT FROM TIME CAPSULE?

    I've set up Time Capsule through Airport utility and Time Machine but had some problems doing so. Consequently, it was set up with print cable still hooked to iMac. Now that Time Capsule is functioning as a backup for my files, I've tried to print from Time Capsule to my HP PSC 1610 printer. I've transfered my print cable from iMac to Time Capsule and tried to make any changes necessary to print from it. But it doesn't work. What am I possibly doing wrong? I've tried following page 28 of Time Capsule setup guide (If your printer isn't responding) but that has not helped.

  • New iMac user.  My mouse doesn't seem to work properly on websites.  I just want to be able to click and have it do whatever I've clicked on automatically, for example "print" or "open link".  Has anyone else had problems with their mouse?

    Has anyone else had problems getting used to their mouse and how the clicks work or don't work on the internet?  I click and it doesn't automatically do what I click on.  So frustrating!

    Hi ndearborn0273!
    This is most likely just a settings issue with your mouse that you are able to change through the System Preferences. I have an article for you that can help you set this back to default, and that article can be found right here:
    Mac Basics: Set your preferences
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2490
    Specifically, you will want to pay close attention to this section of that article:
    Customize your mouse
    The Mouse preferences pane looks different depending on what kind of mouse you use. These settings let you set the sensitivity of the mouse to control how fast the pointer moves across your screen when you move your mouse, and adjust for your double-click reflexes. Other controls may be available, depending on the type of mouse you're using.
    Open System Preferences.
    Choose View > Mouse, or simply click Mouse.
    To control how fast the pointer (cursor) moves across your screen when you move the mouse, click Point & Click and use the Tracking slider to adjust speed.
    If Double-Click Speed appears, you can use the Double-Click slider to adjust speed.
    If your mouse has a scroll wheel, you can use the Scrolling slider to adjust speed.
    To change gesture settings, click the More Gestures tab. You can enable and disable gestures for swipe and Mission Control.
    Judging by your post, I believe your secondary click setting is set to use the left side of the mouse. The default set up for a former Windows user to be most comfortable would be having the secondary click set to the right side of the mouse, as is shown in the picture I have inserted above. Note that these settings will be explained by the little video on the right hand side of this window as you hover over the description of the action on the left hand side.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • Has anyone else had issues with Verizon Personal Hotspot disappearing?

    My Verizon Personal Hotspot has disappeared for the second time in three weeks.  I talked to Verizon and they claim it is an Apple issue.  Have anyone else had this problem?  If so, how did you fix it?  Thanks!

    Credits from promotions do expire, and no notice is given. It's up to the company delivering the promotion to post the expiration date, which all the ones I have seen did, though sometimes they buried it in the "fine print". Check with the promoting company, or post what promotion issued the credits and perhaps someone here can confirm whether or not the credits have expired.

  • Anyone else had problems with range on Home Hub 2?

    I've just received a Home Hub 2.0 today in order to connect BT Vision and was excited to connect it and get my Vision box set up. Having had a Voyager 2091 router before, I disconnected this and proceeded to follow the instructions to the letter to set up the Home Hub. After an hour of failed attempts to connect wirelessly to my laptop, I eventually managed to connect and moved downstairs to my usual location in order to finish preparations to set up everything needed. Looking at a cross-section of our house, it looks like a square divided into four quarters, with the room in which the router is located (the spare room) in the upper left and the room I normally work in (the living room) in the lower right.
    I usually sit quite close to the wall of the living room closest to the spare room and the router has always been located near the doorway of the spare room, allowing the least amount of distance between my laptop and the router. When setting up the Home Hub, I made sure that everything was in the same locations as usual. However, on moving downstairs, by the time I was halfway downstairs, I had lost the connection to the Hub, and by the time I had reached my usual spot, it couldn't even find the Hub when I tried to reconnect. Bearing in mind that I have always had (and indeed currently have at the moment, from the same spot as I just mentioned) an 'excellent' connection to the net using my router, I can only assume the problem is with the broadcasting range of the Hub. Has anyone else had the same problem, and if so, can you recommend how I can rectify it? I've tried all the directions I can find but to no avail.

    HomeHubs are notoriously variable in their performance.  Some of this may be due to the antennae, which in some models are stuck to the case with double-sided sticky-tape, falling off and not being in the correct orientation to give the best range.
    I looked at this in some detail last year here.  Most HomeHub 1.0s and 1.5s  I looked at then had very poor range when compared to other wireless G routers.
    Since then, HomeHub 2.0As have become a little more common and they show similar variation to the earlier models and some have an even shorter range.  If you get a good one, the range isn't bad.  If you are unlucky enough to have, or get, a bad one - complain.
