Cannot Connect to IP printer always says its busy

I'm trying to connect to my printer but every time I try to connect it says Network host "192.168.0.200" busy will retry in 30 seconds. I have tried pinging that IP address in Terminal and it says that data is coming back so at least I know my Mac can retrieve data for the most part.
Heres my setup, I am connect through a D-Link router which is connected via Ethernet cables. (Both computers are Windows XP) I have checked all the firewall settings on my Mac and on the router setup and it seems that I have tried different combination of opening ports and it seems to not make a difference. I already have ports opened for iChat and such but that's about it.
I have printed from that printer before but some where along the line all the settings were reset. So my dad set it up again but differently somehow (and unknowingly.) It used to show up in Work Groups section but now it doesn't show anything which is why I'm trying the IP printer route.
Sorry for the looong post but I really need this printer to be working and I know you guys are way smarter than I am at this so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Please tell us which IP printing protocol you used -- and if you used LPD or IPP, which queue name (port name is used in windows-centric docs) you used.
For non-postscript printers, printer driver is also an important issue -- what printer is it?

  • Since most recent update of Firefox, I cannot connect to my printer; it says it is off-line, which it is not. HP Photosmart C5580

    A couple of days ago, I was notified of an update to Firefox. I declined because the details said it was incompatible with some features of my computer. The next time I logged on, the update processed automatically; I had no control. Since then, my HP C5580 printer is treated as off-line; it is not, works fine in test mode, and all connections are tight. I can not figure out what settings are messed up.
    I am not a computer genius, and am not able to be sure that is was the Firefox update that caused the problem. However, this is the only change that has been done to the computer. Is there a way to see if there is an incompatabilty?

    I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

  • Trying to register iPhone 4. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect, try again latter.

    Trying to register new iPhone 4 for the first time. iTunes store says its busy and cannot connect. I have tried many times over 2 days but no luck. What can I try.

    Hello,
    Almost a year later and I'm experiencing this exactly situation now.
    I was in the middle of the process of data migration from iPhone 4 to 4S and due to really slow download speed restoring iCloud backup, I interrupted the process and started a new full restore process through USB and iTunes (reset all setting and configurations on the 4S and did a local machine backup of the old 4 and asked to restore from that).
    After a full successful restore process, I'm trying to delete the old iPhone 4 2GB backup in iCloud and the error message saying that "this backup cannot be deleted because its being used to restore another device, or backup is currently in progress".
    Of course I ran out of spece (iPad, old iPhone 4 and new iPhone 4S backups) and I tried everything, disabling iCloud, deleting from my MBP, from iPad, and no success.
    I cannot restore the old 4 and deactivate iCloud backup because I don't have this phone anymore, probably it's already in use by another person.
    PS: iOS6, Mountaing Lion
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • My win 7 home premium cannot connect the sharing printer (EPSON L1100) in Windows server 2003 it say "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Accses denied"

    in My office there is a win server 2003 R2 computer, i install a printer Epson L1100 in that computer, and it successfull, and i can print using that printer from that computer..
    I already share this printer, but when i try to connect the printer from my laptop using OS Win 7 Home Premium.. it has error
    "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Accses denied"...
    and then i try connect using other computer but same OS (win 7 Home premium) it still has same error...
    i usually connect to the server computer using //(the ip of computer) , for example
    //52.30.20.66 .. that is my IP server..
    and than i right click in shared printer which appears in windows explorer, and i choose
    Connect...  but it contain error "Windows cannot connect to the printer. Accses denied"..
    anyone know the solution from this error???
    i`m sorry if my english is bad.. i`m from indonesia

    Got a local password/username on your Win7 ? Create the same on the 2003R2 as you seem in workgroup
    net user /add useraccountname mypassword
    net localgroup users useraccountname /add  (I think it's users the name, you can validate to be sure) or
    net localgroup administrators useraccountname /add in worst case.
    nb, or add the user guess in the printer share security

    Problem : error 1075 and Local print spooler service is not running.
    problem description : I have a Lexmark x4270 all in one. I installed the driver for it in my new laptop running Vista. Turns out the driver is not for Vista but XP. I uninstalled the XP driver and downloaded a Vista driver from Lexmark. When I try to run the printer software I get a message "Local print spooler service is not running. Please restart the spooler or restart the machine." I tried all of that. I have looked this problem up on the web and it is quite common with Vista. Many of the "solutions" say it is a problem with an incomplete removal of the incorrect printer driver and they show how to correct in the registry. I am not comfortable tinkering with the registry and thought I'd consult with you first.
    I tried "everything" I could to fix the problem of getting "error 1075" fixed in my HP laptop running Vista.  HP came up with simple solution below.  The regedit part is what fixed mine.  I did not need the safe mode part.  I think Lexmark should add the solution to your knowledge base.
    ==============================
    From HP:  Please perform the below given steps in safe mode to resolve the issue.
    Reboot your notebook and press F8. The system will show some booting options select safe mode.
    Note: Starting computer in safe mode may take some time.
    Uninstall the printer using Programs and Features from the control panel of your notebook.
    Uninstalling any software from Control Panel :
    1. Click on Vista (start) button
    2. Click on control panel
    3. Double click on Programs and Features
    4. Click on YOUR Lexmark Printer  and click on remove.
    Download and reinstall the printer software using the below given link :
    http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:438:0:0&searchLang=en&os_group=Windows%20Vista&target=
         NOTE:  Clicking the link may give an error indicating it is invalid.
                Copy and paste the entire link in a new browser window.
    After the installation of drivers, restart the notebook into normal mode. Now plese check with printing any document. If the still persists then perform the below given steps :
    Click on Vista (Start) button, and type Regedit.exe in search bar
    Navigate to the following branch
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ Spooler
    In the right-pane, double-click the DependOnService value
    Delete the existing data, and then type RPCSS
    Close Regedit.exe
    Restart the computer.
    This should resolve the issue.

    I am trying to print wirelessly from my ipad to an epson stylus SX438W. The connection appears fine on both devices but the ipad cannot connect to the printer. It has been working fine for the past 4 months. Can anyone help?

    Have you tried restarting the printer? Reboot the iPad as well.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Printing to an Epson Wf-3640 Airprint connects but the printer always claims there is a paper jamb.

    Can someone help me to print with Air-print and my new Epson 3640 they connect but the printer always claims a paper jamb that does not exist. Epson claims it is an apple settings issue and that the their printer is fully compatible with Air-print. Any suggestions?

    Update: After working correctly for about 10 minutes, Airprint stopped working again. And then it started working again. So there's some kind of intermittent connection problem.

    Help with what?  If the WiFi radio is broken, there's nothing any of us on this forum can do help you.  Either go to Apple and pay for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop and get the phone repaired.

  • MacBook Pro cannot connect to wireless printer

    I just replaced my printer with an HP Photosmart plus e all in one B210. I set it up and it connected to my network and prints fine from my PC. When I installed the software on my MacBook, it is able to find the printer, but after installation is complete it is unable to connect. I have checked the HP support page but it appears I have done everything correctly. I am assuming there is a setting or two that I need to tweak but I cannot figure it out. I have turned off firewall, and all devices are connected to the same network. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Apparently my original post was not clear enough. The printer shows up in Print&Fax under System Preferences as idle with a green dot. I have tried with "share this printer" selected and printer sharing turned on but still does not connect. The printer works just fine with my PC connected via ethernet to a dual band Airport Extreme. I have installed/reinstalled the software several times and the printer says it has the latest firmware. I am also unable to utilize the AirPrint feature with my iPhone 4 running 4.2.2.

  • Always says its charging

    My ipod randomly said that it was charging (the screen that shows the lightning bolt in a battery if you shut the ipod off when its plugged in) but it is NOT plugged in to anything. When I turn it on it still says its charging even though it is NOT plugged into anything. I reset it and plugged it into the wall charger a few times and the computer a few times. it still functions completley normally but i dunno how much battery life i have left as it always says that it is charging no matter what I do.

    First, try Resetting it while it is connected to power. If this doesn't work Restore it in itunes.
