Changed Router - Can't Setup Wireless printing

I recently changed my internet router. i did have my printer setup with wireless printing, now i cant connect to the new router.

Hi , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you have recently replaced your Router and now you are unable to print wirelessly to your HP Deskjet 3052A from your Mac running the Mavericks 10.9 Operating system. I would like you to go ahead and start here: Wireless Printer Setup (OS X) Because you have a new Router, you will need to connect the Printer to your new wireless network. I hope this helps, let me know the outcome. Thanks,

Can't setup wireless printing : HP4385 Photosmart All-In-One Printer / Linksys Router/Mac OS 10.5

I am attempting to set up my printer to operate wirelessly. I have the computer and printer connected via USB for the setup.
I have :
PRINTER : HP All In One Photosmart C4385
ROUTER : Linksys wireless B (WPA security)
COMPUTER : Macbook Mac OS 10.5.8 notebook.
I've downloaded the correct HP software.
On the printer, the wireless radio is set to "on"
PROBLEM : Using the HP Setup Assistant, I select my Wi-Fi network, and get an error message " the selected Wi-Fi network is not within reach of the device"
The printer and router are in the same room with nothing blocking them.
Print out of HP Network Configuration Page :

Any help greatly appreciated !

Print a WIreless Network Test from the front of the printer. It will self-test the printer's radio.
Can you give me the exact model number of your router? If it is a 802.11b router, it may be time for a new one. If it is, are you sure you are using WPA and not WEP?

How can I get wireless printing with my ipad?

How can I get wireless printing with my ipad?

Best way is to use an AirPrint compatible printer:

If your printer is not AirPrint compatible, you might want to take a look at Printopia.

Remove the toner cartridge and gently shake it from side to side while holding it level (in the position it is in while in the printer). Re-insert the cartridge, restart (power cycle) the printer. Then restart the Mac and test.

Can't find wireless printer with E2000 router

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 (running Vista Home Premium) that connects to my Linksys E2000 and to a wireless printer, the Canon MX870. It's been working for months without problems.
I just got a Toshiba Satellite P770-BT4G22 Laptop (running Window 7 Professional 64 bit) and installed the Cisco Connect software following the instructions where you have already set up the router and just need to install the software to do things like add a device. I can connect to the router fine using a web browser or the Cisco Connect Software and my Toshiba connects to the Internet through the router without problems.
The problem is Cisco Connect says it can't find a wireless printer when I run it on my new Toshiba. I've put the printer within 3 feet of the router with my Toshiba in between but still it can't find it. My Dell in another room connects to the printer no problem. And I can print to the Canon if I select the Shared Canon Printer ( on the Dell) using the Toshiba's Control Panel Add Printer function. But obviously that means the Dell has to be on so that's not good for much more than troubleshooting. I've also wired a connection from the printer to the Toshiba and downloaded the latest driver, printed that way so I know that's not the problem. The problem is that Cisco Connect can't find the printer. It says there are 6 devices attached to my router so it's seeing something, but I guess not the printer. I've turned any firewalls off for this testing too.
I'm stumped as to why it can't find the printer when the Dell did and they are all on the same network. Unless it's not compatible with 64 bit Windows. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I have already added the printer to my network using Windows Add Printer prior to assigning the printer a static IP. But I followed your instructions in making the IP static so if I reset the router I don't have to go through the process again.
When I ran CC and told it to add a printer, it did not identify any printer for me, it went from the screen where you say to add a printer to one where it asked me to name the printer. Honestly, I wasn't even sure if it was referring to the Canon because I'd already added it using Windows, albeit without a static IP, just by knowing what IP it had been assigned. After I gave it the name, it went back to the "home" screen with computers & devices, parental controls, etc. No errors, but no real way to see or change what I had done.
That's why I was asking if there's a way to look at the router and view devices that have a static IP. I can view the DHCP table but it's not there of course. I don't really see anywhere using the router software (either by web connection or CC) where the Canon printer is listed. I see it in Windows Printers, but I saw it there before I reran CC and it asked me to name it.
I appreciate your help and I'm glad to be up and running with it. Especially with having a static IP. I'm just trying to better understand what happened and how to view my devices connected to the router.
Thank you very much for your help.

I have an ipad 2, verizon jet Pak router, canon pixma mg3220 wireless printer. All were working until yesterday. Now I get no air printer found message. Have shut down everything and restarted. No change

I have an ipad 2, verizon jet Pak router ang canon pixma mg3220 wireless printer. All were working until yesterday. Now, I am getting no air printer message. Have shut everything down and restarted. It did not work.

See requirements for AirPrint (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356):
If your printer supports AirPrint but does not work then:
Your printer might need a firmware update
Your printer must be on the same WiFi network
Your router must support Bonjour (Zero-configuration networking).
For troubleshooting:
Turn Off iPad, WiFi router (remove from power), and Printer (remove from power).
Turn on WiFi router
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on printer
Wait 30 seconds
Turn on iPad
Try to print.

Can't see wireless printer

I upgraded to OSX and My HP 2600N could no longer be seen on my wireless network. This resolved it after much trial and error.
How to setup HP Color Laserjet 2600n over wireless network with Mac OSX 10.8
Download HP Color Laserjet driver from Apple Support Page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907?viewlocale=en US
Install the driver. 3. Reboot the Mac
Open the Apple Icon and hit System Preferences... Select "Print & Scan" under hardware section
Hit the + sign to add a new printer
Select the IP option
Select the HP Jetdirect - Socket protocol
Enter the IP Address for the wireless printer [can be found on the control penal of wireless printer, using reports function)Mine is 10.0.0.7
Under the "Use:" list it will most likely default to Generic PostScript Printer
DO NOT USE THIS
INSTEAD, open the list and scroll down to "Select Printer Software...'
From the list of printers scroll down and select
"HP Color Laserjet 2600,1.3.0.261"

Perhaps the router or whatever the printer is connected to needs a wake up.

Can't connect wireless printer to wired PC in wireless/wired network

We have HP Officejet 6500A Plus (E710n-z) printer
Wireless router with 4 ethernet connections (SAGEMCOM 2864) - some pcs connect wirelessly and we have 3 connected via ethernet (network has several printers, 2 netbooks, IPad, 2 laptops and 4PCs currently configured - but with 5 active users it changes frequently)
Am able to connect printer to wireless PCs, laptops, etc - but cannot connect to wired PCs (running windows XP-home version)
I'd like to avoid forcing IP address for printer (everything else is automatic) - Is there another workaround?
I do have another printer connected wirelessly to both wireless and wired PCs
Install / troubleshooting software assumes network is either all wired or all wireless
I don't mind using fixed IP address for install, but prefer not to use for ongoing connections
Thanks for your help

PS - one computer has problem with "serscan.sys" file not found - this can, I believe, be resolved once I find download *since no longer have the windows XP install discs

Hi Nancy,
Have you tried running the HP Netwrok Diagnostic Utility, which is available at www.hp.com/go/tools? I no longer have a WinXP machine so I can't verify that it works on WinXP but, assuming it does, it could help you diagnose the problem.
Regarding using a static IP address, it is a really good idea (especially since it sounds like you know how to assign one to your printer). It even helps to have a static IP once things are up-and-running because it generally prevents your PC's from losing contact with the printer.

Can't do wireless printing using my macbook

hello all!
i need a little bit of help here as i'm new to wireless printing.
i bought a new wireless-N router from Aztech model GR7000, it has two USB ports and allows files sharing and printer sharing. I have connect my Canon MP258 (a normal non-wireless All-in-One printer) to the router and i have successfully set up my desktop and my brother's laptop (both running windows vista) to print wirelessly. I have also set up my bootcamp (windows7) on this macbook pro i'm using to print wirelessly successfully. However, the problem comes when i wish to set up my macbook (OS X 10.6.6) to connect to this printer. The following are the steps i did to add this printer:
Added under IP
Protocol: Internet Printing Protocol
Address: my router's IP address (e.g. 192.168.x.x)
Queue: left blank
Name: my router's IP address (e.g. 192.168.x.x)
Location: left blank
Print Using: Auto Select and it sets it as Generic PostScript Printer
after which i went to the Print & Fax page to change the settings using Options & Supplies, i changed the driver of the printer to Canon MP250 series. I set this printer as my default printer and there is a green idle light below my printer name. I assumed this means my macbook has successfully registered my printer and detected it as online. However, when i go on with printing, nothing happens and the job queue will show my document is printing but will never be done printing. Anyone can please provide me some advices? I am lost. Thank you.

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
When you have the Canon AIO connected to the USB port of a wireless router/print server you cannot use the Canon provided drivers (or use Generic Postscript as you have done so far). Normally for this type of connection you need to use a CUPS driver, such as Gutenprint or PrintFab.
Gutenprint is preferred because it is free however your new MP258 is not listed as a supported model. So you could try using a different model of Gutenprint/Canon driver, such as the MP160, but you could waste a lot of ink, paper and time trying to find a good match.
So your other option is [PrintFab|www.printfab.net] which supports more recent models of Canon inkjets and costs €49. Your MP258 is not listed on PrintFab either, but your model could be region based (we have a similar thing in Australia with the MP495) and therefore may work with the MP250 or MP260.
Another option would be to replace the Aztech with an Airport Express or Extreme. Airport devices do allow you to use the Canon supplied drivers.

Mac Address Filtering Issue with DI-624 router and HP D110 Wireless Printer

Just got the D110 Wireless Printer and cannot connect to the wireless router.
I have a D-Link DI-624 Air Plus Xtreme G 2.4GHz Wireless Router.
The error message that I'm recieving from the printer is that "Mac address filtering may be enabled on your wireless router. This can prevent your HP printer from connecting to your wireless network during setup....etc."
The D-Link is setup using WPA-PSK security. If I turn off all security than the wireless printer is able to connect. With WPA-PSK or even WEP enabled I cannot connect the printer to the wireless router. There is no connection to hardwire the printer and the router.
I've logged on to the router's admin and have confirmed several times that Mac filtering is turned off by going to Advanced > Filters > Mac Filters > and choosing Disabled Mac Filters. Where else is this setting? Why is the printer not able to connect?
Further, I check the logs on the router and it shows "Wireless PC Connected" and "Authentication Success" with a note that has the Mac Hardware Address matching the printer's mac hardware address on the Wireless Network Test Report. It would appear that the router is letting the Print in but that the printer is not able to communicate for some reason. It even shows under status > wireless that the printer is connected.
When i spoke to HP, they said to contact the router company and that they could not help. When I called D-Link they said tech support is no longer available for the model. I'm stuck, can anybody help?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Windows XP, tried both the front of the printer as well as connecting via USB and using the software.
After a few hours on the phone with both D-Link and HP, the issue has been resolved.
Apparently eventhough Mac Filtering was disabled (set to Disabled MAC Filters), the Mac address had to be entered into the router to allow it while keeping the setting to Disabled Mac Filters. To me it appeared counter intuitive to enter the Mac address while it's set to Disabled Mac Filters so I did not try that before getting on the phone with HP. Further on this, the problem did not go away right after adding the mac address but rather after restarting the router as the mac address addition did not take effect without a reboot of the device.
HP was much more helpful than D-Link on this one though it would be nice for HP to add to their instructions and Wireless Network Test Report to add the Mac address just in case. I would have tried that step if it was stated that it's okay to add the mac address and keep mac filters disabled.

Can't connect wireless print server

I've been pulling my hair out trying to configure a D Link DPR-1260 wireless print server to work with a D Link wireless router on my system. I know I probably should have used Airport devices but then again I've always had trouble getting those things to talk to each other, too. Must be bad wifi karma or something. I've posted at the D Link site as well but they don't have many Mac users who can help with the setup. Anyone got a tip?

Can I boost the DSL signal using my 1st Generation Airport Extreme or Express? Also, can I get wireless printing?

Can I boost the DSL signal using my 1st Generation Airport Extreme or Express?
I just moved into a house where they have ATT DSL and it is really slow in my room. I am hoping that I don't have to purchase a booster and I might be able to use my Airport Extreme or Express to boost it. I don't think they want my Extreme as their router, though. They are PC.
I am also hoping that I can set up a wireless printing situation in my room using the Express or Extreme.
I am running 10.4.11 on my old MacBook Pro laptop, 10.5.something on my old desktop (MacMini).
Thanks for any help ahead of time,
Carole

Unfortunately, this won't work especially if you want the connection between the routers to be wireless. The two are just not compatible for configuring an extended network. However, it could work if you can have them interconnected by wire. In that case, you could configure them into a roaming network.
I don't think they want my Extreme as their router, though. They are PC.
This shouldn't be an issue as the AirPorts support wireless clients regardless of which operating system they are running.

Help needed to setup wireless printing

I have less than a month's experience of using a Mac but am really enjoying my purchase so far.
The one issue that I have not been able to solve is printing.
I have a HP Photosmart P1000 which I can successfully print to via USB but I have had no success when trying wirelessly using a Belkin Wireless Print Server (model F1UP0001). My PC was easy to setup using Belkin's setup disk but they omitted to add Macs to their list of operating systems!!
I've tried following instructions given in a post on here but it didn't work
Could anyone please offer any suggestions to find a fix?
Thank you.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

The driver provided by HP doesn't work for network printing, because it bypasses the CUPS system. The only comm protocol you get is what was written into the driver - USB. Install the hpijs and ESP ghostscript driver set from:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
Second issue - the windows setup software enters the server queue name during setup, but we don't have that software on OS X. You need to find the queue name in the print server docs, then enter it next to IP address in OS X Printer Setup. Common queue names are L1, lp, lpt1, etc.
Wait - just remembered I downloaded that manual for someone elses's question. The queue name is lp1 (el-p-one). So in Printer Setup select IP printer > LPD, and enter IP address and that queue name.
Good luck.

Can't see wireless printer on network

I have a MacBook Pro using Snow Leopard. I have a Brother HL-2270DL wireless printer. I CAN see and use the printer when I first turn on the computer or printer. However, when I try to use printer later, the system seems to be "asleep." The only way I have been able to wake it up is to close my laptop for 5 seconds, open it, and then it finds the printer and commences the printing job. Needless to say, that's an inferior solution. How can I make the computer see the printer every time?

Perhaps the router or whatever the printer is connected to needs a wake up.
