Cannot connect and print wirelessly - HP Deskjet 3520

Hey there,
I have a HP Deskjet 3520. It was working without a problem for a while. However after moving house and resetting everything I cannot print wirelessly with this printer.
It is connected to a network and the blue light is permanent, but when I try to print or scan wirelessly it says the printer is not detected/connected.
I've tried to connect using every method available i've seen every video and i've read every blog post. Please can you offer some help before a HP device is mentioned on the news for seriously injuring a passer by after being thrown out of a window?
Thanks :-)

Photosmart B209a setup cannot connect to printer wirelessly

I've had a Photosmart b209a printer for about 2 years and used it with no problem. Couple of weeks ago upgraded to windows 8.1 and then neither of my two printers would print. Long story short, I restored the computer back to windows 8 (which was factory installed) and can now print on my laser printer but not the Photosmart. I have tried and retried installation and setup and always get the same problem: The IP address is visible on the router's list of network devices, it is visible on the printer's front panel in wireless settings, and when installing the software with USB it can see the IP address when trying to setup wireless connection. Then, the setup says it cannot connect to the printer. It sees the printer, attempts to contact the IP address, returns the following:
"Your computer is unable to communicate with your printer at 192.168.1.114. This may be caused by firewall software. If you are using firewall software, verify that UDP port 427 is unblocked for both inbound and outbound traffic.
Your PC can not communicate with your printer at address 192.168.1.114. Check all cable connections. Check that the printer, PC and router are powered on and connected to the network."
Obviously, the PC and router are turned on and connected. I even went to the security software and turned off the firewall AND created a new UDP port 427 and still no luck. What has happened to my printer???

Hey sue_M,
The first step that I would suggest, would be to run the HP Print and Scan Doctor. I have included the document 'Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows'. This will walk you through the download, as well how to use the tool.
Now to confirm a couple of questions with you.
1. What firewall do you use? (ie. Norton, Windows, MacAfee)
2. Do you just have the one firewall, or multiple firewalls?
3. For the UDP 427 port, have you made sure that this port is open in your router firewall?
Looking forward to your answers.

DexterM - Printer connected wireless but Notebook cannot connect to printer?

Hi all,
I will be a brief and clear as possible. I really hope someone can help! thanks in advance.
DexterM, if your still arond I think maybe you would be familiar with this type of thing. I will be as concise as possible.
I incorrectly removed some HP folders in an effort to remove the bloatware. (shop and participation program etc).
Anyway, I damaged my install because Solution Center disappeared! I needed it to scan multiple page PDF docs.
I tried to uninstall and re-install the Full Software package (my printer is B110a) 10s of times. Each time the Installer showed that 'Solution center' is already installed. It was not installed.
Eventually after days of trying to fix this, I took the drastic measure of remving some HP keys from the registry. Not randomly of course, but from a solution post on this board. I only removed about 4 HP keys. I was very careful not to remove any Windows ones. (I se Win7).
So.. Solution center then installed. Hooray! Everything seemed perfect. EXCEPT....
I had removed 2 keys related to the Network. Something like NET HPz12 and something similar.
Now when I tried to connect my printer wirelessly (using the USB to wireless process) it cold not find any wifi networks even though there were several in the vicinity.
I found a solution on this forum which involved right clicking on the network.msi file and choosing uninstall, then re-installing it. This did the trick! now when I ran the "USB to Wireless" process it instantly found my wireless "your PC is connected to SSID blah blah blah, is this correct". Yes. It continued the network diagnostic but always failed at this point.
I think because some service or reg key is missing the computer cannot commnicate directly with the printer, but it can see it at http://192.18.1.2 etc via browser. so all is connected properly, but something is preventing the laptop from commnicating with the printer.
So to recap.
Laptop works perfectly with printer via USB.
Printer is connected to my wireless without isse. I can see it at http://192.168.1.2 etc
Laptop cannot connect to printer though, and fails everytime I run the 'usb to wireless' process.
I suspect one of the NET keys I deleted frmo the reg is to blame? Or some missing windows service?
The network diagnostic utility says "network software missing, please reinstall or fix and try again". I have uninstalled and reinstalled 10s of times now. It's not putting back no the required network service/key thats missing.
Argh. please can anyone help. Someone must have been here before? I have a screen shot too of the 'USB to wireless' process failing. It shows the connection is there, but something is not right.
image 0 - the 'usb to wireless process' picks up my wireless without any problem. ok
image 1 - during the 'running diagnostic on network' part of the process it fails
image 2 - not much to go on here. I reinstalled and uninstalled 4 or 5 times already. same thing.

Nobody? Im really stuck here... Been onto support 3 times and they cannot help. I need someone with expert skills who will understand which windows service or driver or key is preventing the notebook from talking to the printer even though both are on the same network successfully. No AV or FW on the network either.

HT4356 I can see my printer and iPad on router but iPad cannot connect to printer. Printer is on list of air printer models accepted. Help!

I can see my printer and iPad on router but iPad cannot connect to printer. Printer is on list of air printer models accepted. Help!

You may have to visit the printer manufacturer's web site and look into their support pages to get a print driver for your Mac, and install it. Or see if you can see if a driver may already be in your Mac by checking settings, since there are many drivers already installed in Mac OS X.
Good luck & happy computing!

Hello, my sister her macbook pro cannot connect to our wireless internet. My imac however can, so the problem has to do with her laptop. We were wondering how we could solve this problem? Thank you very much in advance!

We did that, but it just doesn't seem to be able to connect. So basically we tried to connect to our network and insert the password, but afterwards it does nothing. Weird thing is also that the network symbol (top right of the screen) says that it has been connected, but when I go look at the system preferences --> network, it states that it has not been connected

Trouble connecting C4795 printer wirelessly

Ok, so here it what I have:
Photosmart C4795 printer
Mac Mini w/ OS X 10.9.5
Cisco DPC3825 router
I have tried everything under the sun to connect this printer wirelessly to my computer to no avail. I have searched the internet high and low for a solution, but have found nothing. Please help me with this issue.

Hello @Greentarpon,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are experiencing issues when trying to configure your HP Photosmart C4795 All-in-One Printer for wireless printing with your Mac OS X 10.9.5 computer. I would like to work with you today with resolving this network connectivity issue. Now, just so you are aware, HP actually doesn't have a downloadable Full Feature Software and Driver package available for your model of printer on the Mac OS X 10.9 Operating System due to the age of your printer. Therefore, we will be relying on your Apple Updates to load all the software and drivers onto your Mac computer for you printer. Also, because there is no HP downloadable Full Feature Software and Drivers there is no wireless setup for your Mac computer. Therefore, you have two options:
Option 1: Use a supported Operating System to configure the wireless on your printer. Once the wireless is configured on your printer than you simply add (+) your wireless bonjour printer into your Mac OS X 10.9 computer.
Supported Operating Systems include:
Mac OS X 10.4, Mac OS X 10.5, Mac OS X 10.6, and Mac OS X 10.7
Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1
Option 2: Run the Push Button or Pin methods of configuring wireless. These options will only work if your router has this capability.
How to Configure Wireless with Push Button Method:
1. On the control panel Home screen, touch the button next to Scan.
2. Touch the button next to Wireless Menu
3. Touch the button next to WPS.
4. Touch the button next to Push Button. The printer begins a timer that lasts approximately two minutes to allow time to press the WPS button on the router.
5. Press the WPS button on the router. The printer connects to the network.
6. Touch OK on the printer control panel.
How to Configure Wireless with Pin Method:
1. On the control panel Home screen, touch the button next to Scan.
2. Touch the button next to Wireless Menu.
3. Touch the button next to WPS.
4. Touch the button next to PIN. The PIN displays on the control panel. The printer begins a timer that lasts approximately two minutes to allow time to enter the WPS PIN.
5. Enter the PIN on the router.
6. Touch Start. The printer displays a PIN.
7. Touch OK on the printer control panel.
Once the printer and router are connected, by either the Push Button or Pin Methods, than you simply add (+) your wireless bonjour printer into your Mac.
How to Install the software
Click the Apple menu (), and then click System Preferences. The System Preferences window opens.
Click Print & Scan. The Print & Scan window opens.
Click the plus sign (). The name of your printer displays.
Click Add Printer or Scanner.
Select your printer, and then click Add.
Click Install, and then click Agree on the software license agreement window to install the software and add the printer to the queue.
After the installation process completes, verify that your printer displays in the queue.
Source: Setting Up the Printer for a Wireless Network for the HP Photosmart C4700 All-in-One Printer...
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your connectivity issues. Should you prefer to run through Method 1 on a supported Operating System, please let me know what Operating System you have on the supported computer (What's my OS?) and I will provide you with detailed wifi configuration instructions. Good luck!

2008 R2 printer server, cannot connect to printer, access denied, Windows 7 OS only

Deployed new Windows 2008 R2 domain controller, added print and document controll. Added several network printers on R2 server. We currently have mostly Vista biz clients but half a dozen W7Pro clients also. The Vista clients connect to these new network
printers, no problem but none of the W7 clients will connect. I select the printer from the drop down directory list and select to load the drivers, the system starts loading drivers and then right before it finishes it stops with error message, "Windows cannot
connect to the printer. Access denied. Again, this happens only with the W7 clients on our domain, Vista works fine.

By default, the security settings for Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 allow users who are not members of the local
Administrators group to install only trustworthy printer drivers, such as those provided with Windows or in digitally signed printer-driver packages. You may want to install printer-driver packages on the print server
or in the clients. More details can be found this page: Cannot
connect to printer, Access denied -

Cannot connect to the wireless networking

My Toshiba Laptop was preinstalled with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS, and it had been working quite well with the wireless BB. However, the wireless internet connection was on and off within recent weeks, while the other mobile devices, such as iphone, ipad, or laptop, in my household had no such problem. The wireless signal was so strong, but the error message always said 'Windows cannot connect to the wireless networking'. It seemed there was something wrong with the wireless adapter.
I got a new TP-Link wireless adapter properly installed. Luckily, this worked; but unluckily, this worked for less than 24 hours. It was really frustrating that I, as a full-time student, depended so much on wireless networking.
Please help!!! Harry

Hi there
You may want to enlighten us with:
- What model are You using (f.ex. L300-123)
- What BIOS version is installed?
- What WLAN driver are You using?
All these questions are answered in PC Diagnostics found under Toshiba app folder in the start menu.

I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8?

I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?

iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected?

Windows cannot connect to printer. 0x00...2

I work in a Domain environment where we have hundreds of printers on about a Dozen Print Servers. Some are 2003 and others are 2008. The Server I'm working with is 2003. The client work stations are Windows 7. We have several printers not mapping to the
designated clients. All installation of printers are controlled via scripts through GPO and based on what security group they belong in.
As far as I can see the computers are in the proper AD security group. But as students and staff log into the desktops, none of the printers show up. And when I try to manually connect the printer by going to the UNC path \\XXX-XX\printer_name it gives me
the "Windows cannot connect to printer"..... with a code of 0x00...2 (there are a bunch of zeros in there).
Now we have other printers that are mapped and are available to everyone. Its just those that are connected via a security group. So if a machine is in Room 123 and in the 123 group, they should get a color printer and a B&W printer for that room.
For some reason the color printer is not showing up, but the B&W is. Outside that group, other teachers can connect via their laptop, or other desktop. But All the computers that the students use, cannot map the printer.
I've tried the registry fix to clear drivers, I've renamed the "3" folder and that didn't work. I've tried applying Hotfixes but the ones I was given stated that they were designed for my version of windows. Even though the fix was for Windows
7.
I'm getting frustrated. Simple Printer 101 tricks aren't working. I think this is a level up higher and could be script or Domain related. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

If the printer driver uses color profiles, make sure the color profile files are installed on the machine. Including the print driver name and where you got the driver might be useful.

Cannot connect Airport express wireless

Hello, cannot connect airport express wireless to linksys router. Connected now with ethernet cable but cannot figure wireless connection. My laptop cannot find the express while preforming setup scan, yet I'm connected to it. I can connect with my iphone but not wirelessly. Any suggestions?

....I was then told over the phone that airport express will not connect to third party routers.
This is NOT correct.
The AirPort Express will connect to a wireless network if you know the following:
1) The name of the wireless network
2) The exact setting for wireless security that the network is using
3) The wireless network password
Most users know 1) and 3), but very few know the exact type of wireless security settings that their wireless router is using. The Express will not connect to the wireless network unless it receives all of the information listed above.
So...we will assume that you know the name of the wireless network and the password for the network.
Do you know the exact type of wireless security setting that your wireless router is using? If not, the Express will not connect.
You may need to check the setup of your wireless router....or if the router was supplied to you by an Internet Service Provider, they may be able to tell you what type of wireless security setting is being used.
Post back when you have this info and we will proceed. There are still no guarantees that the Express will connect....but at least there may be a chance.
