Computer can't find printer since loading new camera software

i tried uninstalling the printer software, and then reinstalling but the set up assistant does not recognize the printer. its an hp multifunction printer, but the hp site was no help. if i reinstall my system software do you think it will help? also, do i need to back up all my files before doing this? will i lose my applications?

How about removing the new camera software since installing it caused the problem?
Regards

  • Computer can't find printer on wireless network

    Hi
    I have a HP laserjet pro 200 m276nw and it is connected to my WIFI, but when im tryin to add the printer under printers and faxes, it dosn't show. Windows just keeps seaching the network but it never showes. Does anybody have an idea about what's going on?
    Im running windows 7 on my computer

    Hey mortensmedegaar,
    It sounds like you are trying to install the LaserJet Pro 200 M276nw via the Windows: Add a Printer feature.  Have you tried installing the printer with the full driver software provided on the HP support website?
    If not, then I would advise attempting to install via this software package.  Before doing so I would advise a couple of steps to ensure the network is on a fresh start and the printer is recently connected.
    Power cycle the router and wait for it to completely power back up before proceeding.
    Power cycle the printer and restart the Windows 7 PC
    Press the Setup menu button (looks like a gear and wrench)
    Select the Network Setup Menu
    Scroll down and select Restore Defaults
    Once the defaults are restored, scroll up in the Network Setup Menu and select Wireless Menu
    Run the Wireless Setup Wizard again to reconnect the printer for a fresh IP address from DHCP
    Next try to run the install package for the printer from HP's support website.  To download this driver one can click here.
    As well, there is a troubleshooting document for if the M276nw is not able to be found during a wireless installation.  The document can be located by clicking here.  
    Let me know how it goes.

    Download Past Purchases
    Sign in with the Apple ID that you used for the original purchase. See which Apple ID you used to download an item.
    2) See if the content is available for redownload. Previously purchased items might not be available if they're no longer on the iTunes Store.

  • Printer software will not finishing loading/can not find printer

    received a Canon MX922 as a present. Attempting to connect and install printer to my HP Pavilion 17 notebook.
    The software stops loading in the final 2 to 3 minutes of completion. Using printer on my wireless network.
    All messages say can not find printer!!

    Hello rewing45,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with installing your Canon printer on to your Windows 8 computer.  I see that the computer is an HP.  I suggest that you contact Canon for installation instructions.  They will troubleshoot the printer on the Operating system NOT on the make of the computer.
    Here is the link for Canon Support.
    Thanks for your time.

  • I downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then

    I restored my mac to factory settings and downloaded yosemite as the new operating system but I can't find iphotos since then. When I go into Icloud it takes me to apple page. PLease help!
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    1 - you need to update your profile as you state that you have OS X 10.6.3 in it
    2 - for Yosemite you need to backup your iPhoto library and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store - if you are upgrading from iPhoto '08 or earlier you need to also run the iPhoto Library upgrader prior to launching iPhoto 9.6
    3 - Your photos are NOT in iCloud - it is not a place to store photos - it is only to move photos between devices (MyPhotoStream) or people (shared PhotoStreams) - they are (by default) in the iphoto library in your pictures folder - if you did not backup your iphoto library prior to erasing you disk then they are gone

  • Can no longer print since upgrading modem.

    can no longer print since upgrading modem.  none of our apple devices see the HP printer anymore.  they used to.  says no airprint printers found.  any thoughts on how to fix?

    If you upgraded the modem......but you have not reset the printer back to its original default settings and then set it up again......now would be a good time to do this.
    The printer still has the programmed settings to connect to your old modem, and it cannot find it, because it is no longer there. The printer is lost, and does not know how to find its way. It needs to be set up again with new settings to match your new modem.

  • Remote printer is recognized but message says can't find printer?  It worked great before installing OSX Maverick

    Remote printer is recognized but message says can't find printer?  It worked great before installing OSX Maverick?

    Thank you for your response.
    Unfortunately I have already rebooted the router and that did not fix the problem. The weird thing is that the computer is connected to the network, it just won't connect to my computer. I have printed the network configuration page to confirm this, and it says the wireless signal is strong. 
    I have not changed anything at all recently in terms of routers, networks, etc. The printer stopped working completely randomly.
    Is there a part in the printer that like emits a signal which computers, phones, etc are supposed to detect? I don't know enough about the mechanics to really theorize about what is wrong, but it seems like that is the only thing that stopped working. 
    Do you have any other suggestions?

    I've been using my networked Brother printers on SL since day 1, actually since before day 1. No problems with IP printing and CUPS drivers at all. I've also been able to set up the scanner function over the network very easily.
    I've set my printer to a static number, tell the printer installer to use IP printing, and type in the IP number and the Mac finds the printer and assigned the driver.
    Have you tried "Resetting" the printer system by right clicking in the printer list box?
    Yes, I did try resetting the printer system.
    Obviously something is wrong because I can't add the printer. When I hit the plus sign it is not there unless I set up a Mac to share it.

    How should I do it? I can't find the info button as stated in the guide.

    I, like many others, do not want my contacts and personal info floating around out there in cycber space for anyone to access.  I don't care how "SECURE" you think it is, IT ISN'T.  I want to be able to sync my contacts from MY COMPUTER to MY MOBILE devices with a simple cord.  Apple needs to get off it's high horse and give us back control of our data.
