Can anyone a HP 4260 to print from an extreme base staion?

I have a new i mac and a macbook and the new airport extreme bases station. I have connected the printer to base station but cannot get the printer to connect and print from either When I check network diagnostics in the printer utility everything is green except the server button which is red and says 'failed'.
Ironically I can get the printer to print perfectly well if i use my lap top PC with windows using bonjour!!!! So the base station printer connection can work it just doesn't work with Apple
Suggestion is that that the HP drivers Apple don't work. I have been to Apple Tech support and run through all of their suggested fixes and nothing works. They haven't got back to me so grateful if
Anyone has found any 3rd party drivers or fixes? HP tech support is next on the list but I'm not holding breath.

See if this works.
Use the process outlined here:
HP Printers (and others) not on compatibility list and Airport Extreme Printing

Using the Gimp-Print drivers for the HP PhotoSmart P1000 printer.
The supplied HP drivers will not work when the printer is connected to an Airport base station.

  • *** Can anyone suggest a good automatic print mail program?

    I'm trying to print from my iPhone email and the best I've come up with is a process that requires an auto-print email program. There are lots for WinBlows but I'm having a tough time finding one for Mac. Can anyone suggest a good auto-print mail program?
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm not sure I understand, do you want to print from a Mac or iPhone?
    I would imagine you can use Automator on the Mac to print all emails, or emails which meet a certain criteria. Not on the iPhone though.

  • HP deskjet 3520 ink cartridge problem...​Can anyone suggest another make of printer that is not HP?

    Hello...I have yet to receive an answer that resolves the problem. I regret buying the printer because now it doesn't work. The error message remains despite taking advice how to fix it. 
    We only use the black cartridge.

  • HT4623 When i go to Settings General there is no option for software update.  Can anyone tell me how to update from 4.2.6

    Can anyone tell me how to update from 4.2.6? 

    Check to make sure you don't have two firewalls (i.e. a Windows firewall and one on your router).
    If that's not it, you may need to dig deeper ... like temporarily changing your router's DNS to use Google's DNS or OpenDNS instead of your ISP's DNS.  Or maybe open up a certain port on your router (not sure which one that would be though, sorry).  Or, if your computer is connected to the internet over wi-fi, try connecting to your router (or modem) via Ethernet, I heard of that solving a problem like this (though I can't confirm if that was real).

  • When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ?

    When I print pictures from my IMAC to my Hp C8180 they are grainy, even when I select the Best Quality- Why can't I get good quality printing from Imac ?  Use the same printer with a PC and printed the same picture files-  they are printed with high quality-  Why can't the IMAC do the same?

    Does this involve iPhoto for the Mac?
    How exactly are you printing these photos?

  • Anyone else have a problem printing from an iMac OS-X 10.9.3 to a wireless Epson Artisan printer? Sometimes it prints but must often I get "The printer is not connected" and I have to retry printing 8, 10 or 12 times before it will print?

    Anyone else have a problem printing from an iMac OS-X 10.9.3 to a wireless Epson 835 Artisan printer? Sometimes it prints but must often I get "The printer is not connected" and I have to retry printing 8, 10 or 12 times before it will print? I have followed all the instructions from Epson about upgrading, etc. but it is very frustrating when I have to repeatedly try to print. Epson says talk to Apple???

  • I have an IPad Air and a Lexmark Pro  P205 which is connected wireless to my HP Desktop. How can I get my Ipad to print from my Lexmark ?

    I have an Desk Tp HP. On necked wireless to a Lexmark Printer Pro P 205 .   Several months ago I also got an IPad Air and  would like to print from my Ipad .  Must  I buy an Air Print printer or is there a way I can use my Lexmark

    You may be able to install an AirPrint sharing application on your PC to enable printing.
    Google for "AirPrint for Windows" and you should get several hits.
    Alternatively you may be able to use Lexmarks Printing App if it supports your printer model.

  • Can anyone help me find my movies from my old PC?

    Can anyone help me find my movies on my MacBook Pro from my old PC? I am on Mac OS X, Lion version 10.7.5, use iPhoto, and have a  2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 processor from late 2011. I had the geniuses transfer my old hard drive to the MacBook Pro a couple of years ago and now I don't know where they ended up. They are not in iMovies since today was the first day I ever opened that App!
    I have searched through Finder but I only find a few of them. I am certain they are there somewhere, however. I read another discussion and it said to go to you HOME folder in finder. But I don't see a way to do that. So I have been searching by MOV in "All my files." Unfortunately just a few of them are showing up. Any  new suggestions?

    Thanks for helping out.
    Yes, I should have mentioned that before. I have been searching This Mac too. In fact, I have been trying all kinds of queries to find them, hoping that I'll happen upon the kind of file they are. I tried .mp4 and found a lot of music stuff but not the family movies I am looking for.
    Maybe you are right. Maybe they were some weird Windows only kind of file and they didn't transfer to Mac. The good news is that I have them all on the PC, which is still working. I just need to figure out a place to keep them that's secure so we don't lose them...

  • Can anyone help me with deleting folders from Appleworks?

    I have an older computer that I am giving to a friend and I want to export and remove all of my personal folders in Appleworks (6.2.9). I have not been able to export info and I have also not been able to delete any folders from Appleworks. I can delete all the info in the individual file (ss or wp) but cannot remove the file itself. I don't know what I'm missing but I cannot find info on how to handle this problem. Can anyone help me with this?

    Search for the file's name in the Finder, throw it away, and empty the Trash; the Finder is the item in the Dock with the smiling face.

  • Can I use my bluetooth to print from my IPAD

    Is there anyway I can print directly from my IPAD using my bluetooth?

    As far as I can tell, there is no way to print directly from your iPad to a printer via Bluetooth.
    Apple created audio and keyboard "drivers" for Bluetooth on the iPad, but they did not add functionality to send printable content via Bluetooth.
    Apparently, there is a technology called AirPrint that will work for iPad printing, but it is specific to only certain printers - and it uses WiFi (i.e., the Internet) to print rather than Bluetooth.
    There are also several printing programs that will essentially pipe your pages to your desktop Mac/PC (or the software developer's server), and then send them back to your local computer - but those seem cumbersome at best.
    So, the answer to your question is that there seems to be no way to print from your iPad via Bluetooth, becaue the Bluetooth technology on the current iPad will only transmit audio or keystrokes.
    If someone knows of another option, I'd like to hear about it, too.

  • Can anyone explain how data is stored from Oracle GL Summary Accounts?

    Sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum but I wasn't sure which one was more appropriate....
    Basically I would like to know what Oracle does in the background with summary accounts for it to slow down the period close process. I have been told it's because Oracle applies summary balances to (temporary?) tables, which means Oracle GL is multiplying the number of processes it has to run when you close a period.
    Can anyone provide any further info on this?
    Thanks
