Changed SSID, Now can't print wirelessly

I hope someone here with more tech savvy than me can assist with this issue.  I use a Macbook Pro 17" with an Apple Time Machine as a router for my wireless network.  My SSID for the network used to have an apostrophe in it, and when I recently installed a new wireless network camera, it would not allow me to use an SSID with special characters like apostrophes.  I went into my Network Preferences and removed the apostrophe.  My other networked peripherals (fax machine and iPads) had no problem with the change, and are working fine wirelessly.  My laser printer is still not recognized on the network and won't show up on my list of printers in system preferences unless I have it hardwired with USB to the computer. 
I have uninstalled and reinstalled printer drivers, restarted the Time Capsule, reset the printer back to factory defaults, read the manuals online, and I am out of ideas.  Can someone tell me how to make my print/scan control panel recognize my printer without being attached by USB, and let me print wirelessly? 
The printer is a Brother HL-5370DW, and I am running Mac OS 10.7 (Lion).  I downloaded the current driver for 10.7 from the Brother website and installed it. 
I appreciate any help offered! 
Linda

Got it fixed. Went to the HP site again & they had info for OS10.5 that worked.

  • Changed printers, now can't print wireless from laptop

    Hi. I changed to a HP printer from an Epson. Now I can't print wirelessly from my laptop through my Airport Express. I get a message that the printer is offline.
    Went to the HP site & got latest drivers. And there was an Apple update for the HP. I can print when the laptop is connected to the printer by the USB cable.
    When I first set up the AP Express 2 years ago, I was able to print wirelessly without any problems.
    any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Upgraded to Yosemite and now can't print wirelessly

    Upgraded my 1yr old Mac Pro to Yosemite and now can't print wirelessly to my Epson XP-405 through my wireless home hub! I've tried re-installing new printer drivers etc, throwing away preferences etc... these sometimes work for a single print then goes back to "Printer can't be found". My older iMac doesn't seem to have this problem (yet - fingers crossed!) and prints ok on exactly the same wireless network.
    Any suggestions gratefully received.

    If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

    If you have the printers IP address open Terminal (Applications/Utilities) and at the prompt type: ping {printerIP}. You will get a reply or failure.

  • Turned Firewall on and now can't print wirelessly

    I have 2 new macbook pros. Have been printing wirelessly fine. Decided to turn firewall on and now neither will print wirelessly. Turned firewall off and rebooted. FInally, after several tries of deleting and adding the printer, I finally got it added back. However, when I try and print here is the error message it get:
    Error: /Library/Printers/Konica_Minolta?mc2450DL/rastertokm2430dl.app/
    Contents/MacOs/rastertokm2430dlfailed
    What the heck? Just by turning the firewall on and off I get this mess? HElp???

  • I've updated Time Capsule firmware and now can't print wirelessly

    I have recently updated my Time Capsule to Firmware 7.6.2 and now my computer no longer sees my Brother MFC9320-CW either wirelessly or via ethernet.  I am able to hook the printer up to the Time Capsule's USB port and print in that way.
    The printer does not retrive a DHCP address either wired or wirelessly, and when I set it staticly, it still does not respond to a ping.  I hope I'm barking up the right tree here, as the firmware update on the time capsule is the only thing I can think of (aside from a network card failure on the printer, which its diagnostics insist is not the case) that is causing this.
    My next step will be to set up a test WiFi network with a third-party router to remove the printer (network card failure option) from the equation.

    To Downgrade Your Time Capsule Firmware:
    Open Airport Utility: Applications → Utilities → Airport Utility
    Find your device in the left-hand column and select the “Manual Setup” button
    In the “Summary” window that pops up click on the word “Version”
    In the pop up box that comes up next to the “Upload Version” select the previous version
    Click “OK”
    Your Time Capsule will restart and be as good as new!

  • Updated to 10.8.2 and can't print wirelessly

    I recently installed 10.8.2 on my MacBook Pro and now can not print wirelessly to my Lexmark 544dn.  Tried installing "new" drivers, rebooting router, resetting printer system,etc... No luck.  Prints fine wirelessly from Windows 7 Partition (Bootcamp) and prints fine from USB connection.
    Any suggestions?  Apple tech support says I now have to buy an AirPort router to get support?

    rebooted 3x at various stages - makes no difference...
    Just to be safe, just did it again - no luck...

  • Can't print wirelessly from iMac to HP 8600 all-in-one

    A few weeks ago, I purchased a HP 8600 basic printer and setup it up to my two iMacs and to the router (cisco brand).
    I haven't really printed with it since I have gotten it, which did print when I tested it at first. Now I can't print wireless from either iMac (one iMac is ver. 10.9 and the other is ver. 10.8). Both my computers and printer are connected to my router, but when I go to print something the printer dialog box tells me: "the printer is not connected."
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks

  • I can't print wirelessly using Airport Express.  I have my HP printer connected to a USB hub, and the hub to the Airport Express, but when I select the HP from the printer list, my MacBook says the printer is "off-line" - even when it is not.

    I can't print wirelessly using Airport Express.  I have my HP printer connected to a USB hub, and the hub to the Airport Express, but when I select the HP from the printer list, my MacBook says the printer is "off-line" - even when it is not.  I've tried several USB connectors, and several different ports on my USB hub; same result.  I need to have the HP connected to the hub 'cause from there it's connected to our desktop Mac.

    Hi,
    I am currently replying to this as it shows in the iChat Community.
    I have asked the Hosts to move it to Snow Leopard  (you should not lose contact with it through any email links you get)
    I also don't do Wirelss printing so I can't actaully help either.

  • HT2250 I have been able to get my MacBook Pro to print wirelessly through my Airport device. How do I make it so other computers (non-Mac) can also print wirelessly as well? They are able to connect through my wireless network but can't print.

    Well, you could install the drivers to the wireless printer in you other computers.

  • MacBook Can't Print Wirelessly on Officejet Pro 8500A

  • Can i print wirelessly from iPhone to HP OfficeJet 4500 Desktop Wireless All-in-One Printer ?

    i just bought a new printer and its not apper in my iphone how can i print wirelessly ? from iphone ?

    the HP iPrint app was replaced by the HP ePrint Home & Biz app. The best source of iPad/iPhone printing compatibility information is the HP support page for Cloud services. Click on the section "HP OfficeJet Products" to see a chart detailing AirPrint, ePrint and HP ePrint Home & Biz compatibility for each OfficeJet product.
    Note that OfficeJet 4500 is a family of printers, each with different capabilities. When purchasing it is important to identify the manufacturer number e.g. the CB867A and the CN547 are both HP OfficeJet 4500 printers but the latter has wireless networking and the former does not. I suspect the above support page applies to the entire product family.

  • HT5569 How can I print wireless from my iPad 4

    Hi everyone!...
    How can I print wireless from my iPad 4?
    Your answer will be most appreciated.
    Thank u s. M.

    See requirements for AirPrint and printers that support AirPrint here:
    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.
    If you need more help then what printer do you have?

  • Can I print wireless from iphone

    Can I print wirelessly from iphone 4 to my wireless home printer?  Thanks!

    If you have one of the few HP printers that supports airprint, or if you have an app that provides this feature, you can.
    Otherwise, no.
