Pls take note that my IPad 3 used to find my printer HP wireless D110. The only thing that I did was to update to IOS 7. Do you think this is the reason why my iPad cannot find my wireless printer?

1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds
4. Turn on your iPad and test print.

Sometimes cannot find wireless networks??

i've looked around on a couple messege boards, but they didn't seem to be exactly the same problem i was having.
essentially, after waking up from sleep or hibernate, i sometimes cannot find wireless networks. the wireless switch will be on, Fn + F5 says my wireless is on, yet nothing can be found. strangely, when i try to turn off wireless, whether it's through Fn +F5, or the hardware switch, the light below the monitor remains ON. basically, i can't even turn it off. when i do click the button to try and turn off wireless, it gives me the busy cursor and eventually the whole menu disappears.
the way to fix this is by restarting.
just today, however, i suffered this same problem, even though i wasn't coming back from sleep or hibernate - it just lost connection randomly and then couldn't find any networks. attempts to turn off wireless failed.
is there a solution? is this actually the same problem that was remedied by changing a power setting?
thanks in advance.

Yeah I'm having this problem too, with my antique T41 running XP. It used to be rock solid it seemed to change when I installed XP SP3.
I have tried reinstalling the Intel drivers but that hasn't helped. It seems when it restarts after hibernate (and occasionally at other times, as with the previous poster) it somehow doesn't lock on to the signal or it gets confused in the protocol or something. It doesn't always happen though - about one in three. Rebooting cures it...until the next time....
any assistance / ideas most welcome, thanks.
PS I'm using Windows Zero Configuration not Access Connections. That was a change some years ago that made it work better so I'm inclined to stick with that unless someone can tell me why not....

Cannot find m1212nf multifunction printer driver to install on w/2008 terminal server (64bit).

Cannot find m1212nf multifunction printer driver to install on w/2008 terminal server (64bit). The existing driver wants me to connect the printer using USB. The printer is in another facility I am trying to support.

Hi,
The HP M1212nf used the Host-Based printing language, such printing language is not recommended Citrix or Terminal Services envoirnment and not officially supported.. you may try using the Citrix UPD on the server by installing the basic driver for yor printer on the client:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3965849&task=&
(ii) HP does not recommend installing these host-based LaserJet drivers on the Citrix server; however, the devices may function by using the Citrix UPD on the Citrix server with the HP host-based driver installed on the client. Print drivers for your product may be available within the Windows 7 operating system.

Playbook cannot find WIFI networks

Hi, I have a new Playbook 16gb wifi and the wifi isn't working. Essentially what happened was after I completed the initial setup it prompted me to install an OS update after which the WIFI stopped working. I cannot connect to any network no matter the type a/b/g/n, the frequency, the channel or the mode. I have tried on two Netgear routers, 1 DLink and 1 iPhone (used as a hot spot). I have tried PBS using the actual button and the PIN but neither works. It just cannot find any networks.
I tried resetting to factory defaults but that has made the situation worse because I am now stuck at the setup screen with no networks to complete setup. I can't connect to the desktop software either because the installation hasn't completed.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
David

Hello
Were you able to fix the wifi issue ?
I have successfully reloaded QNX OS on the Playbook using Desktop manager.
Version 1.0.7.2942 was loaded.
I still have the same problem, it is impossible to connect to the wifi network.
I have tried wpa2, wpa and wep , nothing works. I have tried at over 10 different routers. I tried with routers where other playbook wifi works well, but this one playbook won't connect, I always get the same error while trying to pair to the network, it doesn't event get to the acquiring IP address phase.
Thanks

Hi,
I think you already have done a Vista system restore?
Which program do you use for connecting? AC or Vista.
What have you done before and did this happen all of a sudden?

Notice there is no mention of WiMax.
It doesn't really matter anyway as Sprint is rolling their WiMax network down for use by MVNOs. Actual Sprint customers will not have access to WiMax at all. It was a failed experiment.

I cannot access my network printer under AEBS(Airport Extreme Base Station)

The current network configuration of me is
1. AEBS have static IP address. (e.g., 154.123.12.54)
2. Network printer in my office have static IP address. (e.g., 154.123.12.55)
3. My iMac is connected to AEBS. And have virtual IP address. (e.g., 10.0.1.201)
The problem is that when I trying to add my network printer on my iMac,
it works. I can find my network printer in the list.
But when I trying to print with that printer, I think any packet is not sent to network printer.
I think AEBS block them.
How can I use my network printer under AEBS?
I didn't have any problem with my Belkin wireless router.

When you can, take a look at the old AirPort Express and locate the model number in the faint print on the side of the device.
If you see A1084 or A1088, this is an older Express version that is no longer supported by the current version of AirPort Utility that you are using with the new AirPort Extreme.
If that is the case, your Express is at least 6 years old...probably older...so it is about time to treat yourself to a new version with much faster speeds and more features.

My iPhone cannot find my AirPrint printer HP Photosmart 7525. What do I do?

My iPhone and iPad cannot find any AirPrint Printers. MY HYP Photosmart 7525 is AirPrint compatible, what can I do?

Hey kennethfrommascoutah,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Since you are having trouble using AirPrint follow this section of the article.
About AirPrint
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
If you're unable to print
Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.
Have a nice day,
Mario

HP LaserJet P4015TN - Windows 7 cannot find on network

Several months ago we started to get random print jobs with garbled characters that would come out from time to time. Over time, these events became more frequent and the number of pages printed out increased as well. Sometimes a whole try of paper would be printed out with these garbage characters on each page.
Unplugging the network cable would stop this but it would start up again immediately after plugging the cable back in. Initially I thought this was a network issue so I swapped cables. No luck. Swapped ports. No luck. Reset all of our switches and our router. No luck. Removed the print driver from our machines and reinstalled. No luck.
I left it unplugged for several days and the random printing finally stopped. Problem solved! Well, not exactly. The random printing issue is now gone but now I cannot install this printer on any Windows 7 machine. In fact I cannot find the printer either by entering the IP directly in the setup or by browsing the network.
The odd part is I can ping the printer and I can login to the admin page via the printers IP without an issue. The other oddity is that this is only occuring on Windows 7 machines. XP machines can print to the printer with no issues.
I have tried this on various machines with the Windows Firewall on and off and antivirus software on and off. Nothing seems to make a difference.
However, I did have success using the HP Print and Scan Doctor software. It did finally see the printer and let me install the HP Universal Print Driver. I can now print to the printer using this driver. This is not the prefered way of doing this as we have many public users of this printer that would not be technically savvy enough to setup printing this way.
My question is, why did this printer stop connecting to Windows 7 PCs? Nothing has changed on our network. Is there a know issue with a Windows Update that is causing an issue? I am symied with this.
Any ideas?
I finally came to the conclusion that this had to be a bad network board.

You can disregard that last line that states this was a bad network card. An HP service center determined that the card is fine and found nothing wrong with the printer.

Cant get chooser to find my network printer!

I was wondering if someone can help me..
I've tried everything on my OS 9 G4, but cant seem to get the Chooser window to select my HP PSC 1210 printer. It shows it in the left window but is greyed out. My ethernet is working perfectly. I have the printer hooked up to my OSX MacBookPro and that goes to my D-link DI 624 router and another Ethernet cable goes to my OS 9.2.1 G4 quicksliver. A printer icon is placed on my desktop but it cant find the network.
I'm stuck ANny help would be greatly appreciated.!!

HP Envy 5643 Cannot find wireless networks

Hi,
I purchased this printer a day ago and it connected successfully with my wifi network through the setup wizard. I'm not sure what has happened but it somehow lost the connection and is unable to find wifi networks. When using the setup wizard it searches and doesnt find anything (before it found my network as well as sorrounding networks).
I tried connecting it through a USB and configuring it that way but even then I get an error saying its unable to connect.
I'm using a Mac if that helps.

Hello @Pleaseworkty , and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you're running into connectivity issues. I'd like to help!
What version of Mac are you using?
- Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
I'd recommend performing a power reset on the printer. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I'd also suggest the following document;

Cannot connect to network printer: Canon MX330 series

Hello,
Not sure if this issue has been posted before, if so then please forgive me. I recently purchased my first Mac, a Macbook pro running on Mac OS X 10.6.6.
I have a network printer, a Canon MX330, at home that is connected to the family desktop computer, a PC on Windows XP.
When I connect my printer to the USB on my Macbook, it works instantly and I can print a test page. I can also go on my Desktop PC and print on that printer through the network.
The problem arises when I connect my printer to my desktop PC. The Macbook is unable to connect to the printer. However, I can browse my Desktop's shared folders from my Macbook. The printer also works locally on the Desktop as well as from the other PC's that are on the network, but not on the Macbook.
If anyone can please help, that would be really appreciated. Right now I have no choice but to copy my files to the public shared folder, then go upstairs to the Desktop, open them, and print.
Thanks!
Phil

Hi Phil,
What they have described is the correct procedure for adding a Windows shared printer to the Mac. Given that you can connect to the shared folder on the PC then this process should work but can take some time.
The first thing to ensure is that the printer on the XP PC is shared. In Printers & Faxes on XP, right-click the printer icon and select Sharing. Select 'Share this printer' and set the Share Name to a single name (spaces can impact things). OK this to close the driver properties window.
With regards to the three columns that appear, the first column is for the workgroup name. If you are using XP Professional then the name will be Workgroup. The Home version will show MSHome. This workgroup name can take a while to appear (the Mac needs to determine who is the master browser on the network) but you can help the Mac by opening System Preferences > Network and for the connection type you are using (Airport or Ethernet) select it and then select the Advanced button. With this new view you will see the WINS tab. Select this and you will see the Mac's workgroup name and the workgroup it belongs to, which will most likely be blank. Click the drop menu and the workgroup name will show. Select this name and OK the change.
Now try adding the printer again, selecting the Windows icon. The workgroup name of XP PC should show in the first column. If it does, select it and then second column will show the XP computer name. Select this and you should get prompted to enter the admin user details for XP. After entering the correct information the shared printer name will appear. Select this and then you can progress to selecting the PrintFab MX330 driver.
