Printing from pc laptop over wireless network

Hi,
I have been successful getting my mac to see my wife's xp pro laptop and the laptop sees the mac. I installed the canon i960 driver on the laptop but can't get it to print.
If I open the i960 q on the mac and send a file from the laptop nothing happens. If i send a file from the mac it shows up. Withe the q on hold and the mac file showing I send a file from the laptop and it shows in the q. If i resume printing the mac file will print but the laptop file just disappears.
If there is nothing in the q on the mac side the laptop file will not show up. when it does show up along with the mac file it does not print.
I can see the q on the lap top as on the the mac. I also get a general message that the laptop cannot communicate with the printer
Driver problem?
baffles me.
thanks

Have a look at this guide if you are running 10.4
Printing to a printer on a Mac running 10.4.x from a Windows PC using Bonjour for Windows
http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3014.html
otherwise
Printing to a printer on a Mac from a PC running Windows XP
http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3000.html
Important note:
If the printer attached to the Mac is a black and white printer you need to use the Apple Laserwriter driver regardless of which printer you actually have.
So if you have a black and white laser printer, you should use the Apple Laserwriter driver.
If the printer attached is a colour printer use the Apple Color Laserwriter driver regardless of which printer you actually have.
So if you have a colour inkjet printer, you should use the Apple Color Laserwriter driver.

Officejet Pro 8500A Premium will not print from my laptop

I have an Officejet Pro 8500A Premium. I jus had ot reload my driver thinking it would resolve the below issue but it did not. The connection string is laptop -> docking station -> ethernet to router -> ethernet to printer. On my laptop I can see the ink levels of the printer so there is a connection but when I attempt to print and select the Officejet 8500 (non fax) printer, it attempts to print to the 8500A fax and then pops up with a fax box.
Additional Information:
I have tried the following:
- Changed the port for the 8500A fax
- Tried to set the default printer from the fax to the network printer - received an error message: Operation could not be completed (error 0x0000709). Double check the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network.
This question was solved.

Hello coolhandluke2,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having issues when attempting to print from your Laptop.
I also see that you are getting an error 0x0000709.
I do have a few suggestions we can try.
First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
I am also going to give you a document that deals with a 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error Me....
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Thanks for your time.

5512 all in one wireless; unable to find printer from my laptop

Last week we had to replace our wireless modem. Yesterday was the first day we needed to print something. The printer was showing it was "offline" on my laptop and my son's laptop. It hadn't been connected to the new modem, so I did that. It shows a wireless connection and good signal strength. After that our laptops still showed it was offline. Another laptop doesn't show the printer is offline but we get an "unable to print" error message. I decided I would uninstall the printer from my laptop and then reinstall it (I'd had this issue before and this worked) but now it says there's no printer found when trying to add it back. Any ideas???

Hello LLHRN07,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue when it comes to connecting the printer to the new wireless router.
I suggest that you try to run the Wireless setup Wizard from the printer. To do so, please go to the front panel on the printer, use the right arrow and go to the SetUp Menu. Use the right arrow again and select the Wireless Menu. From here, go to the Wireless SetUp Wizard and follow the prompts to connect to the new router.
If you have any issues, or any other questions, please feel free to write me back.
Cheers,

[SOLVED] Apps freeze when i try to wirelessly print from this laptop

I have an HP Zv6000 running arch that is about 2 1/2 years old, and I have shared the printer on my main desktop so that the laptop can print wirelessly (the desktop also runs arch). The problem is, when I try to print from the laptop, Openoffice stops responding. This also happens on certain other dialogs, especially when I am trying to change stuff in the Options dialog. I am also unable to print from other applications. I really don't know what the problem is here. I have the printer's driver installed on the laptop and the usblp module loaded.

Sorry for the double-posting, but I uninstalled and installed CUPS on both client and server, and followed the Linux to Linux printer sharing configuration posted on the arch wiki. This laptop still freezes whenever I try to print anything except for a test page from the CUPS web interface. So it must be config-related and the problem HAS to be on my laptop, since my server can print just fine. Does anyone know what the problem is? I've been trying for hours and nothing's wanting to work for me.
EDIT: I tried running soffice from the terminal and I looked for any output. This is what I got:
[ken@myhost ~]$ soffice
libGL error: open DRM failed (Operation not permitted)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
Nothing really related to printing here. Also, running gedit from terminal gave me no output whatsoever when it froze. Weird...:|

I can't print from macintosh laptop unless I print first from my desktop. officejet 6500a

i have a macintosh laptop. I can't print from it unless I print first from my desktop. officejet 6500a.
it says: "communication failure. the computer is no longer able to communicate with the printer."
Yet, once I print something from my desktop, I can print from the laptop just fine, until I turn one of the machines off...

Is the printer connected to your wireless router? What router? What version of OS X?

I am trying to get my D1560 to print from my laptop.

I was trying to get my D1560 to print from my laptop. On advice from the HP website, I uninstalled the printer, and downloaded the latest driver software. But when I extract the file (either the downloaded file or from the CD), nothing happens. The file extraction reaches 100%, then nothing. No error messages, no directions on what to do next, not even a kiss goodbye.
How can I get the printer installed, and then print from a networked computer that is not directly attached to the print device?
I've taken two steps back. At least before, Windows (7, 64-bit, by the way) would recognize the printer, even though I couldn't print to the D1560.
The print device is attached to my HP Slimline desktop. Does the Slimline have to be awake in order to print from my laptop?
Also, I downloaded the HPPDU software, (before I uninstalled the printer) but since it can't find the printer, it can't solve the problem. That IS the problem - the computer can't find the printer.

How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer?

How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer.
....been trying to save document to pc to print.... but cant find a way to do so.....?

Actually you can print to a non wireless printer if you have apps on the iPad and your computer that will do this and as long as you can set up a WiFi network or the iPad and the computer are already on the same network.
I Am running an old OSX version on my iMac at work (Tiger OSX 10.4.11) and I have an app on my iPad called Save2 pdf. I downloaded a helper app on the Mac called WePrint. I do not have WiFi at work, but I create a WiFi network using the Ethernet connection to the Mac that my iPad can also join. As long as I can send the file/text/document to the Save2pdf app, I can print it on my old HP LaserWriter1012 which is not a wireless printer. This uses the Mac as the print server and the WePrint app on the Mac sends the doecument to the printer.
It's not a very elegant solution, and it is a little convoluted, but it does work.

When attempting to print from a printer friendly version the print window is empty.

When attempting to print from a printer friendly version the print window is empty. I have also noticed if I click on all programs and Acrobat.com the window that opens says unable to connect to the internet. I can even be on the internet and do it. I have downloaded the reader DC suggested under document to print. [personal information (email address) removed by moderator]

Hi,
Would you tell us the exact name of the application that you use? What is your operating system?
Is it "Adobe Acrobat Reader DC", "Adobe Acrobat Pro DC", or "Adobe Acrobat Standard DC" for desktop computers?
Or "Adobe Acrobat DC for iOS" or "Adobe Acrobat DC for Android" (for mobile devices)?

Photosmart C7280 will not print from one computer on wireless network

C7280 will not print from desktop computer via a home wireless network. It has worked in the past, but ceased recently.
It will print from a laptop on the same network.
I have tried to comply with the procedures on the HP Support and Drivers site, such as the HPHNDU.exe routine and others, but have had no success.
I would appreciate some help. My previous post in May has not had any replies.

Moving printer from direct USB connection to network

I am trying to move my printer from direct USB connection to the network by using my NAS' print server. I see it fine in trying to setup the printer, but the printer model does not show up as an option. How do I get it added? It is an HP photosmart 7350. Thank you in advance for any help. --Jeff

Hi kayc_89_07,
If you still have the printer CD you can re-run and use the USB to wireless setup from there. If not, then you can manually add the printer. What operating system do you have?
You have to make sure first that your printer is connected wirelessly. You can print a Network Configuration Page from the HP product control panel. The page includes the product IP address, and MAC address as well as the product network status. Follow these steps to print the information:
On the HP product control panel, press the Wireless button ( ). The Wireless Menu displays.
On the Wireless Menu, press the button ( ) next to Print Reports .
The product prints a Network Configuration Page
Let me know so I can assist you further...

You will have to use a universal printing app, such as Print Central or Print n Share. Look in the app store for printing options.
