Can I print both wireless and USB to same HP 8625 printer from different computers?

I Just installed a new HP Officejet Pro 8625 printer which is connected to my desktop computer via a hard wire USB connection. I also have a separate PC which is used for connecting to my Wi-Fi network. Can I have the same printer connected to one computer via a hardwire USB connection and enabled to perform wireless printing from another computer?

Can you have both Wireless and USB printing configured simultaneously on HP Laser mono 1102w

Hi Guys / HP,
Just wondering if you can have the HP Printer mono laser p1102w setup for both USB2 cable hard-wired to notebook and for wireless connections concurrently.
Trying to install printer with both setups via install CD on my HP notebook Pavilion dv6.
Because when installing the printer CD it asks for one or the other i.e. USB or Wireless.
Is there an easy workaround.
Regards
Mike

Hello,
You should be able to connect both, but not Ethernet and wireless at the same time.

How can I print BOTH legal and letter on my duel tray printer????

How can I print BOTH legal and letter on my duel tray printer from my mac? on a pc you can choose "print according to pdf size" and the mixed document will print in both legal and letter auto-selecting the printer tray.

Hello CKAY,
My old printer does not show 8x10 either.
In the printing preferences under the Paper/Quality tab, do you see a "Custom" option or button? There should be one in there somewhere in your preferences.
Click on that and create a custom size of 8 in for the width and 10 in for the length. Be sure to "Name" it 8x10 Photo and click ok.
Now give it whatever attributes you want under the other tabs and click Apply and OK (or just OK).
Close out the printer and open it again and the new size you created should show in the list.

I had ordered a photo book print two years back. I want to reorder the same book again now. However, I have lost the album project in iphoto. Is there any way to see my print order history and reorder the same book for print ?

No. Apple only keeps the pdf file for a book for 30 days. Without the library and book project you won't be able to reorder the same book.
Even though the horse is out of the barn the following tutorial might be of help for future books, i.e. create a new library for each book): iP08 - Archiving an iPhoto Book for Editing and/or Ordering at a Later Date

Both wireless and USB printing on a MX892?

I am currently printing from my computer to a new MX892 via a USB cable. I was afraid to set up wireless in case that would mean I could only print wirelessly, which is likely not true. I might (rarely) choose to print from my iPad or iPod wirelessly, if that was an option. My question: Can I set up wireless printing for those rare occasions without creating problems for printing via USB the majority of the time?

Hi paulb,
You will need to connect the printer to your network wirelessly prior to printing from your iPad and iPhone. To setup the printer wirelessly, please follow the steps located at the link below related to your operating system:
Wireless Setup - Windows
Wireless Setup - Mac
Once the printer is connected wirelessly, you can setup your iPad and iPhone to print via AirPrint. To do this, please follow the steps located here.
Hope this helps!

Error printing both wireless and via USB

Hi my printer is a HP deskjet 3050A all in one.
It stopped communicating with the computers in the house when we were having internet issues.Tthe modem was reset.
I have unistalled it and reinstalled the printer and the drivers and I can send the documents to the correct printer from both the desktop and the laptop, but then I am getting an error printing message. when I click on to see what's printing, the document is listed in the queue but it is showing a document with three circles on it rather than a Word Document.
This is happening from both computers and with both connected and wireless printing.
Any suggestions?
Thank you

Hey @soleruler,
If the printer doesn't show under the Programs and Features list on your Windows 8.1 systems than that generally indicates that your Deskjet 3050a e-All-in-One Printer was most likely not installed properly in the first place. You certainly can use the 'Remove Device' option under 'Devices and Printers' on those 3 computers to remove the old copies of the printer. Just make sure that there is no print jobs stuck in the queue when you go to remove the device. Print jobs stuck in the queue will cause the printer to go into a 'removing' status but the Deskjet wont delete until the jobs are deleted. To check the print queue just right click on the printer under Devices and Printers and left click on 'See What's Printing'. If anything is in the box then just right click on it and 'cancel' the jobs. Once cancelled, then you can proceed with the 'Remove Device' option.
Let me know how these steps go for you. Good luck!

Using printer as wireless and USB cable hook-up:

I have a HP 4502 e all- in-one printer and I want to use it with my old computer with a USB connection and my laptop with a wireless connection. Can I do this without having to disconnect my USB cable to my old computer?

Hi,
YES you can have both USB and wireless connection for the same printer. For this you have to install the software on both the computers. For your laptop connect it wirelessly and for your desktop connect it through the USB cable.

IPod dock connected to both firewire and usb at same time

I have 3 ipods, 3G 4G 60gb photo 5G 80gb vid. I have a 5G doc and a dual usb / firewire cable. I prefer to manage my 3G and 4G using firewire as it is oh so quicker. However 5G requires usb2 only. I have a Apple 'dual' usb/firewire port cable that at the moment to use I alternate which socket is plugged into the front port of my PowerMac G5 as they are the only spare ports I have.
I just bought an Iomega Ultra Max which comes with a built in firewire and usb hub that means i now have enough ports to dedicate one of each to the ipods but want to use only one dock and so I would like to plug both the firewire and usb iPod cable into the hub and leave them there connected to the iPod dock. I know it won't cause problems when the 5G is connected as there is no hardware for firewire connection. But the 4G has both.. will I encountering a usb and firewire conenction cause problems and possible damage to the ipod or my PowerMac G5, will the 4G ipod use firewire in prefeance to USB if it will work???

Hi iPodista;
I would recommend very strongly that you don't even attempt do this. Generally cross connecting in this fashion is a very good way to get yourself into serious troble.

Print using both wireless and USB cable

Hello,
My officejet pro 8500 wireless is connected wirelessly to my LAN but my company blocks local access to printers while on VPN.
Only way I can print on local printers wirelessly is if I disconnect from VPN or if I somehow attach directly via USB. Can I just take a USB cable to the docking station and will my laptop recognize it or will it mess up the wireless setup. I like to use both options.

Yup, that is the nature of VPN.
You can run a USB to your docking station. You just have to have two instances of the printer in your list of printers - one for network and one for USB. Name them (right click > rename) something clever like ...Network and ...USB.

Can't run both PBG4 and Macbook on same TC network

I am trying to connect both a pbg4 and macbook core duo to my network using newly purchased time capsule. I first used Airport Utility from macbook hard wired via ethernet and set up the network. I have an AsDsl network with an old Westell Modem that always works in bridge mode and connects to my ISP via PPPoE. I used to use an US Robotics 8054 wireless router into whose WAN port I would plug in the modem.
I set up the TC as the main router, enabling my password at my ISP. Everything worked like a charm with the Macbook. When I tried to connect the PBG4, no luck. No matter what I did the PBG4 couldn't get the TC.
So I attached the US robotics to the one of the TC LAN ports. Using my old network, the pbg4 can access the TC and the internet. The macbook cannot access the TC at all.
I think this might be a DHCP problem. I think my set up doesn't allow more than one computer to be on the web. Also, something about the US robotics network makes the TC network invalid.
Any thoughts?

if you have two hard drives the easiest might be to install panther on the second hard drive. this way you don't have top partition anything. make sure the drive is properly formatted it should be formatted mac os extended journaled with APM partition scheme. then just boot from the Panther install disk and install panther on the second drive. note that this will only work if your mac originally came with panther. did it?
to switch between installs you can change the startup disk in system preferences->startup disk. then reboot. alternatively, reboot normally and hold option at the chime. this will boot you into startup disk manager where you can choose which drive to boot from.

Can we deploy both BPM and Webcenter on same weblogic domain?

Hi,
We have a clustered environment with two managed servers configured for SOA.
Now, we are looking to integrate BPM worklists into custom webcenter portal app. In this process, can we create and deploy custom webcenter portal app on the same SOA servers? Please help.
Thanks,
Suren.
Edited by: Suren on May 8, 2012 9:25 AM

There is something called Process Spaces which is BPM Inegrated into Webcenter Spaces which can be setup on the same domain
http://andrejusb.blogspot.in/2011/02/bpm-portal-11g-ps3-how-to-configure.htmlAs yours is a custom WC Portal I would suggested to use separate managed servers for ADF and SOA to balance the load and to separate concerns if any ..

Wireless and USB setup

I have an HP LaserJet P1102w. How can I set it it up to print both wireless and USB. It is currently set up to print USB from my desktop computer. I would like to also print from my iPad wirelessly while keeping the USB connection for the desktop.

Hi DanC1,
I understand you would like to setup the printer on the wireless network.
I will be happy to help you.
Since the printer software is already installed then do the following steps:
Plug the printer back into the computer with the USB cable.
Then go to start, all programs, HP, Laserjet, wireless configuration wizard, follow the steps to setup the wireless. You should be able to print wirelessly now.
Print a test page.
If you still want to use the USB connection then disconnect and reconnect the USB cable and it will add a second Icon for the printer. One will be for USB connection and one for wireless connection.
Just select the proper printer when printing.
Hope this resolves your issue.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a wonderful day!

Wireless AND USB?

HP 6500A All-in-one: Can I switch between wireless and USB printing on the same laptop? Need to work around VPN.

Hi,
I did few tests before Christmas, the results were: you will get a error (on USB printer) if connected to same machine, but should be ok if you connected USB port to other machine (w/o wireless to the printer). In short, you still can use the printer but the logical printer on the USB port won't work.

I cannot find the 'WPA passphrase' to connect my printer via wireless and cannot find it in Airport utility (MAC says it cannot find any open airports)

MAC OS X 10.6.3 - desktop Mac
I browsed similar questions and saw that someone recommended going to the Airport Utility and then selecting manual set up or something- anyways, it could not find any airports. I have brought my printer from my house as my BF's has died - this is the first time it's asked for a WPA passphrase. We tried a very long series of capital letters and numbers as well as the password for the internet and both times the printer said "invalid passphrase"..... ......

Airport Utility is for administration of genuine Apple Base Stations. If you have a different Brand, Airport Utility can do nothing for you.
I think they're using ethernet.
To connect a Printer via Ethernet, no password is needed.
We already tried the password for the internet and that did not work...
If a password is required to connect to the Internet, then WiFi is likley being used, and that WiFi password is the one needed for the Printer connect wirelessly as well.
What make&model Printer? Is it indeed a Wireless Printer? Most connect via USB, but that would force it to use a specific computer to assist in printing.

Deskjet 3512 simultaneous wireless and usb?

I was/am hoping to be able to set it up so my wife could print "wirelessly" while I could maintain the ability to print from my desktop. Now i'm seeing I have to "switch" back and forth?
Is there a way it can be connected into my desktop USB while allowing her to print from the laptop, whenever she needs?
Hope this makes sense wasn't able to find anything while I was searching for this issue..?
Thanks!
