Can I use Brother HL-5250DN PRINTer

Can I use my Brother HL-5250DN printer to print from my iPad?

Yes, I tried that. I believe there may be some sort of problem with the apple version of the driver for this printer. I have XP installed on my machine via bootcamp, and I am able to install drivers for and successfully print to the same printer using the same cable and same USB port in Windows. But I can't add the printer from OS X. Please help!

  • I can't use the function of "print to video".

    I've recently purchased FCPX and Blackmagic Design Decklink HD Extreme 3(version 7.5.2) but I already know this combination looks quite weird because I'm using only DSR. This is the first time I have installed FCP.
    I installed FCPX and figured out there's no way to get the video from Decklink on FCPX so that I deleted FCPX, installed FCP 2009 instead and installed FCPX again on the same disk as Final Cut Pro 7... It's a shame to get rid of it.
    At first, I could get a good result when printing to tape. There's no problem. But it's not long before I failed to get what i wanted. VCR detects input signal from FCP 7 through Decklink but the monitor of VCR shows only noise. For now, I can't use the function of "print to video".
    Also, I connect the input of Decklink to the output of DSR and the output of Decklink to the input of DSR at the same time and monitor w/ the output of DSR. However, the output on the monitor shows something weird when I capture the video from DSR as if the signal is fed back.
    Someone told me that I have to use other version of decklink but i'm not sure it would be better if I just change the version.
    What's wrong?
    What should I do for fixing these all mess?

    No, it has to be on a WiFi network.

  • Can I use Dell AOI 922 printer with MacBook Pro?

    Can I use Dell AOI 922 printer with MacBook Pro?

    Cisco:
    Very helpful!   My set up was Mac/ Lion trying to Print off a Dell Photo A10 922
    Lion does not store any Lexmark, nor dow Apple, but I went to the lexmark site, and found this-
    http://support.lexmark.com/index?productCode=LEXMARK_X5270&page=product&locale=E N&userlocale=EN_US#1
    Downloaded that, then hooked up the printer, Cmd-P, and the Mac found the drivers I had loaded.
    Works fine.  Now when I go to my sisters, I can print!
    byw, I'm probably just a Level 2  "GIYF"er, but your the only one ( of MANY folks) who thought to search Lexmart. I've seen posts by MANY geeks saying a Mac could not print to ANY Dell printer.
    Nice job,

  • HT4356 Can I use a 'pc' network printer connected via ethernet to the home wifi network ?

    Can I use a 'pc' network printer connected via ethernet to the home wifi network ?
    or must the printer I want to use also have a wifi connection ?
    I have a home network using ethernet connected devices to a router, also attached to th erouter is a WiFi unit. We are using the WiFi unit to connect to the network and hence to the big wide WWW.  We now want to print from our IPads pereferable to our netowk connected HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909a series. (not the wireless model).
    I was using the HP ePrint app to print from the Ipad, but I do not fully understand how this works. It seems that you must use the app to do the printing which is fine for basic email and photos, but I can not access the drawing package I have, and want to print from it. Please what is it that I do not understand.

    You must use an airprint printer directly connected to wifi through it's own wifi card.

  • Can you use a Epsom wireless printer to print from an iPad

    Can you use an epson wireless printer to print from an iPaad

    Yes.
    Certain models are air print compliant, check your manual.
    If not I'm not sure if Epson  has an app, but there are third party printer apps such as Print n Share, Print Central and Printopia that should work for you (just to name the three most commonly recommended, there are plenty of apps so read the reviews and pick the one best for you)

  • Can'd add Brother hl-2070N printer

    I can't add my new Brother HL-2070N printer. It is plugged in and functional (test page prints fine when I press the button on the printer itself). I connected it to the USB port on my macbook pro with a working printer cable. I opened the printers utility, clicked "+", gave it a name, left the location unchanged (automatically selected as my local machine), selected "Brother HL-2070N series CUPS 1.1" from the "model" drop-down menu, and press "add." Then nothing. Nothing happens. I press "add" and I get no dialog box, no new printer, nothing.
    I then downloaded the drivers manually from brother's website and tried it again, but still nothing. I've restarted several times, still nothing. Help!

    Yes, I tried that. I believe there may be some sort of problem with the apple version of the driver for this printer.

  • Can I use Airport Express for printing and Ethernet printing at same time?

    I've been trying to set up a couple of laser printers that were given to me recently. The printers are Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS and Samsung CLP-510. The reason I'd like to have both up and running is because the black toner for the Samsung costs twice as much as the toner for the LaserWriter. I have two questions that I am hoping someone will be able to answer.
    1) The CLP prints a test page just fine. I was finally able to get the Samsung printing while directly connected to my PowerBook G4 via usb (I had to install a Xerox Phaser 6100 driver to do so!). Today I tried putting the usb into my Airport Express (which I use for my portable internet and airtunes) and now the printer does not respond. When I try to add the CLP as a bonjour printer, I get an error adding the printer and the printer does not respond. Can someone offer some advice as to how and if the CLP may work via the Airport Express?
    2) The LaserWriter prints a test page just fine. I purchased a transceiver (albeit not an Apple transceiver - this one says Asante Friendlynet, the guy I bought it from said it would work though). The transceiver is connected to the Ethernet port on the printer - and I have a yellow ethernet cable (?) running from the transceiver to the ethernet port on my computer. I read somewhere on the internet that I need to turn on Appletalk in order to use the printer via ethernet but when I went into my network settings to do that, there was a warning that I could not turn on appletalk for ethernet without forsaking my airport. Can someone offer some advice as to how and if the 16/600 PS may work via ethernet without disrupting my (working) airport express? Also - I did not receive any software or drivers with this printer but I read that I may not need to (they come with Tiger - ?) Is anyone able to confirm this?
    Any help would be TOTALLY appreciated!

    Hello Kappy! Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question.
    I should update you at this point to say that I can add the 16/600 PS printer through a process that I found called 'Direct IP printing over ethernet'. (I think I've done this correctly - but I honestly have no idea about network stuff). Here's what I did:
    -went into system prefs and looked at the network settings under built-in ethernet tab. Under TCP-IP I found the IP address of my network host.
    -In the Printer Setup Utility I tried to manually add the 16/600 PS printer. In the Printer Browser window, I selected IP Printer.
    -Under IP printer, I selected LPD Protocol. I inserted the IP address copied from my network settings (above) in the address bar. In the Queue bar I typed in the name of the printer 'Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS'.
    -Again in the Printer Browser box I gave the printer a name and location. Finally, in the 'print using' box I selected Apple and then chose the model from the drop down list. 'Apple LaserWriter 16/600 PS fax v.2014.016'
    -I got a dialogue box that asked about other installable features - clicked ok.
    -when I tried to print a Word document, the Apple LaserWriter driver opened up and appeared in my dock and then I got an immediate error saying "network host ---.---.--.--- is busy, down, or unreachable..."
    -I tried to repair permissions, but it did not resolve my issue.
    -I noticed that even after adding the 16/600, it did not show up as a bonjour printer, but remained visible as a printer in my list (although grayed out).
    I did some troubleshooting and the best I could find as a close match for my problem was that perhaps I had entered the name incorrectly in the Queue box...? If anyone knows how to find the appropriate name to insert I would sure appreciate knowing.
    Finally - you should probably know that I received this printer from someone else. I guess I'm wondering if I need to be resetting network settings on the printer somehow? The test page lists the following:
    Ethernet (Address: 08:00:07:84:78:e9)
    EtherTalk: PostScript
    NetWare: AutoSelect
    TCP/IP: AutoSelect
    IP address: 0.0.0.0
    And - now finally, to answer your questions (the best I can, that is)
    I did connect the yellow network cable directly into my laptop (right side, 4th input, counting away from me). I have a portable internet modem that plugs into my wall (for power) and then has a cable (Ethernet?) that goes into my Airport Express (LAN port?). I have no other router and there are no other inputs or outputs on my modem. My Airport Express has only one input for the modem, one mini input for airtunes, and one usb input (in which I have a cable connecting to my other laser printer (now working wirelessly via Airport Express!!)
    Should I have these cables hooked up differently?
    What is a Phonenet adaptor? My internet is provided via a cable service (not DSL). It is wireless and portable - I can take it to any major city in Canada and it works as long as it is plugged into a power source and near a window.
    I really appreciate any help you can offer. At this point I must have spent the better part of almost two weeks trying to get these older laser printers up and running.
    Thank you again.

  • Deskjet: Can't use inks in new printer as they say "previously used", they are completely full!

    Had a printer that took #564 ink.  It wasn't working, so I installed all brand new ink cartridges.  It still didn't work.  I bought a new printer, making sure it took the same size ink, so I could use the $70 worth of ink I just bought and never used.  I am getting the error "ink is previously used" and it won't work.  It is NOT previously used!  It never even printed one page.  So, just because I put them in a previous printer, I can't use them in a different printer.  They are genuine hp inks. 

    I did set up the printer with the inital inks that came with it.  I am still getting the error.  I went and spent $$$$$$ on another "new" set of ink and they worked.  It's ridiculous that I can't use my brand new, never used (except to put them into the old printer only to have it not work) inks in my new printer.  I hate this.

    Hi,
    Your printer is Airprint Compatible with the latest firmware.
    Make sure your iPhone / iPad have iOS version 4.2 and above to support Airprint.
    Upgrade the printer firmware from your PC by using the tool below, by using the tool for your OS:
    Windows / Mac OS
    Then you will be able to print from the iOS built in Print function as long they are connected to the same network as your printer,

    Hey guys. Just wanted to know if its safe to use my new 10.6.2 imac install dvd on my old imac, whose original install disc had 10.4, but I've since lost it. I'm running 10.4.11 on it right now, and want to upgrade. Does anyone know if it will cause any kinds of problems with any programs or compatibility issues? Does it matter that I'm running tiger and not leopard before I update? Thanks all.
    Hi: I assume you are referring to the DVD that shipped with your new iMac. Correct? If so it will not work with your older iMac. The DVDs are machine specific. The upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard isn't an issue, but the machine specific DVDs would be.
    Hope this helps

  • If I setup a wireless network can I use Airprint on a printer that is NOT Airprint enabled?

    The reason for my question is simple, my business has 20 printers and none of them are "airprint" enabled nor do they need replacing.  My reps print order forms from their vans using Canon IP or IP100 and outdated handheld devices, (these devices are bluetooth enabled and we've never had a problem printing) I want to upgrade to ipads.  I'm starting to feel this wont be possible unless I buy new printers. 
    Does anyone know if I can buy a cheap wireless router, create a wireless network then connect my ipad to any printer, airprint enabled or not??

    Set up a wireless network and connect the lantronix box wired to the router.
