Aiport doesnt find the printer. What can i do?

Another route is to use Bonjour for Windows to be able to access the printer attached to the AirPort base station from your PC.
In addition, not all USB printers work with AirPort base stations for sharing. The following iFelix link provides an "unofficial" list of known compatible printers...and some workarounds.

  • Printing on a Canon Pixma MP600 via Airport Express from a Windows 2000 PC

    Hi, I'm a Mac: I can print directly connected AND wirelessly to a Canon MP600 printer through Airport Express.
    Hi, I'm a PC: I can only print when I'm directly connected to the printer.
    Has anyone found a way to print to their Canon through Airport Express?

  • Printing to Canon Pixma MP170 on Airport Express from Windows XP

    I got a Canon MP170 basically for free with the rebates.
    Connected to my Airport Express, installed the drivers on my PowerMac and I can print just fine (I am aware that the scanner will only work when connected directly - which also works fine).
    Now I installed the drivers on Windows XP, then added a new printer, selected the Standard TCP/IP port where I had my other printer on the Aiport Express before and changed the printer driver to the Canon MP170. Could not print.
    Deleted the port (only managed after deleting the printer(s) defined with it and restarting Windows ...) and created the port from scratch - Standard TCP/IP port, IP address of my Airport Express, device type Generic Network Card, raw port 9100. Won't print.
    Anybody managed to get this going?
    Thanks in advance and Best Regards,
    alex

    Try Port 9101

    Canon PIXMA MX310 causes computers to lose connection to Airport Express
    Posted: Jul 30, 2008 11:06 PM
    Click to reply to this topic Reply email Email
    I just bought a Canon PIXMA MX310 printer and tried to connect it to my Airport Express so I can print from both my computers wirelessly. As soon as I connected the USB cable to the printer from the Express, both computers lost connection to Airport. I tried every solution I could think of, but the printer seems to not work this way, and the only way I can get my network connection back is to UNPLUG the printer from Airport.
    Somehow, after HOURS of trouble shooting, I actually did get it to work the way it was supposed to... Then later on (about a half hour later) I lost the printer connection and had to start all over again. This is very frustrating, and I know other people are having the same problems.

    2 Possibilities:
    1) AirPort Utility on your computer has become corrupted. Delete the current application located Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility, restart your computer and then reinstall the application.
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#airport
    2) The AirPort Express device is not fully resetting to factory defaults due to an internal component problem. If you've tried the factory default reset a number of times and still can't configure the device, it will need to be replaced.

  • Working Canon LBP 2900 with Airport Express

    Hi,
    I have read many threads on how to install the lbp 2900 on the mac even though there isn't any compatible driver. Would appreciate if someone could please re-post the step by step procedure on installing the lbp 2900 to work with the mac.
    Also, would greatly appreciate if someone could assist me on HOW to get the Canon LBP 2900 to work with the AE. Is it compatible?
    Thank you very much.

    First of all, no apologies needed. There is nothing wrong with asking questions on forums and I am happy to offer my experience.
    I recommend that you look at getting a device that supports wireless or Ethernet. This will allow both Windows and Mac to connect to the device using the vendor provided drivers.
    If you are happy to stick with Canon then I can recommend the MF4380dn (for a laser based AIO) or the MP990 (for an inkjet based model).
    The MF4380dn has Ethernet standard and thus would need to connect to the Ethernet port on the Express (which may not be ideal for you as there is only one Ethernet port). But with the Ethernet connection, the UFR2 driver works fine on 10.5.8.
    If you would rather use wireless, then Canon offers no laser model with wireless support. Instead you would have to look at the inkjet models and there are plenty to choose from. I have the MP980 connected via wireless and it works fine on 10.6 and 10.5 via a Netgear wireless router. The MP990 is a successor to this model and I would expect it to work just as well.
    If you want to move away from Canon then I have read very good reports about Brother AIO's. Again, try and get one with wireless support as this will allow the most flexibility for your network and any future OS updates.

  • How do i use my time capsule and extend the network with airport express

    I have a new iMac and Time Capsule, how do i extend the network with airport express. My time capsule does have a guest net work, and logins and passwords? I am no computer person. So for me it would have to be spelled out.

    Use the search as this has been done to death ..
    Bob Timmons is the expert on this.. look at his answers here.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4274187?start=0&tstart=0
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21856077#21856077
    This has been automated in the v6 utility. I am used to doing it manually in v5 utility which is also fairly easy.
    Apple doco is also good to read.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4145
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259
    Note.
    You cannot extend the guest network unless everything is up to date 7.6.3 firmware. And that is only with the TC as the main router in the network.
    All apple routers can be configured as the main wireless or as the extend wireless.. so don't worry if a post uses express or extreme or TC.. they are for wireless, the same thing.

  • Setting up a multi-zone stereo system in my home with Airport Express

    I'm trying to set up an in-home stereo system using iTunes as my main hub.  I want to play iTunes as well as Pandora and possibly Sirius.  Can I set this up with Airport Express?  Would I control everything through iTunes on my MacBook or an iPad?  How is this all wired if I have some existing external speakers with a receiver in my family room, built-in ceiling speakers in the kitchen, and outdoor external speakers?  I am comparing this to a Sonos system, but the Sonos is not really in my budget. 
    Also, what is the difference between Airport Express and Airport Extreme?  What would I need for this situation?  Thanks in advance for your help.

    >I want to play iTunes as well as Pandora and possibly Sirius. Can I set this up with AirPort Express?
    From iTunes you can stream a single audio source to one or multiple 802.11n AirPort Express Base Stations (AXn), but you cannot stream multiple audio sources to separate AXns. You would need a third-party product, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil to stream audio sources other than from iTunes.
    >Would I control everything through iTunes on my MacBook or an iPad?
    You could do either.
    >How is this all wired if I have some existing external speakers with a receiver in my family room, built-in ceiling speakers in the kitchen, and outdoor external speakers?
    Of the speakers you mentioned, only the ones connected to the receiver would work directly connected to an AXn. The audio output port on the AXn is a combo 3.5 mm stereo analog/optical digital port. Assuming your receiver accepts either analog or digital audio input, you can feed the output of iTunes or Airfoil from the AXn to the receiver. In turn, the receiver (if configured for whole home stereo) can feed the kitchen and outdoor speakers.
    >Also, what is the difference between AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme?
    What's similar: Both are Internet routers that provide wireless. Both provide the ability to share an attached USB printer. What's different: The Extreme has a built-in Ethernet switch. The Extreme supports sharing HDDs and printers together or separately via a USB hub. The Express has a built-in audio circuitry, the Extreme does not.
    >What would I need for this situation?
    Only the Express can accomplish providing an audio stream.

  • Trying to set up wireless network on PC with Airport Express

    I'm helping a friend set up his network with AirPort Express. He's got a modem attached to his PC, and currently has a router that sends a wireless signal to a receiver on the PC in the other room. Now he's added a Mac, and the old router/receiver doesn't work with Mac. So he bought an Airport Express.
    I've turned on the Airport, and first I connected the ethernet cable from the modem to the AirPort. Per the AirPort utility I put on the PC, it couldn't find it (got the flashing amber light). So then I took out that ethernet, and I hooked up the ethernet directly from the CPU to the AirPort. Suddenly, it was found, and it took me step by step through the set up. It asked for password info from our internet provider (??why would I have that info??), so we just hit "enter". Then it couldn't set up the network, and said to check the "manage network settings". I've tried everything. Not only can I NOT manage to create a network, but now NEITHER ethernet cable will cause any recognition in the AirPort. All I get is the blinking amber light. I'm about to throw all the computers out the window...it really should not be this difficult. I've set up networks in my own home, before, with both PC and Mac, and never had these problems. So, now, I've had to relink up the old router/receiver in order to send out this call for help. Can anyone suggest anything else to try before I use these computers for target practice?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jennifer
    P.S. The main PC w/modem is on Vista with service pack 2.0...since I can't even get that one working with AirPort, I hardly think it matters what the other computers are...

    I had some initial problems too. Make sure that you have the latest Airport Utility in the utilities folder. I used that to correct the problems I had when I first got Time Machine. I recommend resetting everything through there to get it working right.
    Mine is not set up to run an n network because my macs are all g and b compatible. Does the airport utility see the time machine? And if so, does it have a green light in the utility?

    How do I stream rhapsody from my MacBook Pro to my receiver with Airport Express?

    You will need an application like Airfoil for Mac to be able to stream any audio files on your computer to the AirPort Express.

    Can anyone give us suggestions on how to get our Lexmark Pinnacle Pro 901 to work with airport express? We cannot get airport express to recognize the printer.

    Refresh all your devices before reconfiguring printer to connect to your computer.
    a Shutdown computer
    b Pull out printer power cord from the socket. Let it stay for at least 30 seconds then plug it back.
    c Powercycle your router (unplug your router for at least 30 then plug it back. This will not change the settings of the router. This will just refresh the device)
    d Once router is ready , put back brick at the back of the printer to turn it on
    e Wait one minute
    f Turn on computer
    Repair your disk permission: http://bit.ly/OeD7U3

  • How to output surround sound with airport express N

    is this possible? I am streaming successfully with airport express, sounds great with no audio dropouts. I have it hardwired to my router and the AX is connected optical to my surround receiver. Music is only played through my fronts. Is there a way to output surround sound? I can't even choose different audio options through my A/V receiver.

    I Found out the problem. When I was hooking everything up, I kept the t.v. on so I can assign audio inputs with the onscreen display. If the T.V. is left on....only stereo outputted. When I turned the t.v. off and with the airport express plugged into AUX, I was able to switch between surround sound settings.
    so the moral of the story is, turn off video devices when you just want sound, especially if they are hooked up to the AVR with HDMI.

  • Can I create a home network withous dsl connection with airport express

    can I create a home network without dsl connection with airport express?
    So it means I can't connect to my HP Airprint/Wireless printer without exretnal connection through ISP?? Just need to print from my Mac and iphone. I have Vodafone Prepaid connection, which is directly connected to my Mac. Does that make an internal network possible?

    You have to set up the Air Port with an internet connection to set up a network. Do you have a modem? If yes you can set up the network. 

  • Adobe acrobat only prints first page with airport express

    I got my printer (HP PSC1315) to work with airport express using one of the solutions described in these forums. Printing is fine except when trying to print pdf files with adobe acrobat, in which case only the first page of the document prints. Preview has no trouble printing pdfs. Anyone else experience this? Is there a solution?
    Thanks,
    Kevin
    PS- my version of acrobat is acrobat pro 7.0.5

    Figured it out.
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader is apparently very picky about printer drivers.
    I had to have the users delete their mapped network printers from their Printers & Faxes window.
    Then I opened the registry and went to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3
    I deleted the drivers for the printer(s) the customer had mapped (e.g. Xerox 6360DN, .. etc.)
    I rebooted the computer
    I had the customer logon and remap their printer.
    That resolved the issue.
