Computer won't CONNECT to c4480 after move from DSL to cable

I have a Photosmart C4480 operating under Windows 7  Home Premium 64bit
It worked fine I could print/scan and read and write to a card
I moved so disconneted it packed it. When I got to the new place set up the computer
hooked up the USB cable and connected it between the printer and the computer.
When I tried to print nothing happened. I Opened Windows Explored and discoverd
that the computer could not see the printer I checked the cable thats Ok tried reinstalling drivers
when it finished it said "connect USB cable" meaning that it could not see the printer.
Other than that there were no error messages
The only thing that changed was at the old location I was using DSL now I am on cable
Do I need a new printer?
This question was solved.

BAC0296, if I understand your issue correctly, you recently moved and now your USB connected printer is no longer recognized by the computer. Is this correct? If so, don't worry about moving from DSL to cable, it shouldn't effect a USB connection. 
To start, I would unplug the USB cable from the printer and the computer. Then go to your Devices and Printers folder and delete the copies of the printer there. We're going to start fresh from here. 
Once they are all removed, go to your start menu and then to All Programs and find the "HP" folder. In that folder there shold be another folder for your c4480. In that folder there should be an item listed for the printer setup and installation. Go through this process and when you are prompted plug the USB cable into the printer and the comptuer. Finish the installation from here. 
Let me know if this helps!

  • Can't access PIX 501 after switch from dsl to cable

    Hi--
    I have two small offices and recently switched from dsl to cable internet. the two pix501 f/w units worked fine on dsl, but for the life of me I cannot even access the units now from the inside as I was able to do before when on dsl signal. I know I need to change the configuration from PPPoe to DHCP, but I can't get access to do it.
    Any suggestions?
    I believe I have 6.2 software, but I'm not sure. The Inside address is 10.8.6.1 now.
    thanks--jb

    Jorge--
    I did have the Pix connected to router, 192 168.1.1 for convenience, so I could still get internet wirelessly without having to do lots of wire unplugging and plugging.
    I have since changed to topology of comcast modem connected directly to pix which in turn connects directly to laptop.
    In this configuration, laptop pings 10.8.6.1 ok, but pix has no connectivity to comcast.
    When laptop connected directly to comcast modem,(ie pix removed) the ipconfig /all from laptop reads the following from comcast:
    ip 71.192.7.130
    mask 255.255.252.0

  • Can't get router working after switching from DSL to Cable broadband???

    I have a WRT54G v.5
    I just switched from dsl service to cable broadband. I can't get my router to work. I hooked it back up just as the dsl modem used to be. there is an ethernet cable that goes from the cable modem to the router. then an eithernet cable that goes from the router to the computer. this does not work. If I just take the router out of the loop and run an eithernet cable straight from the cable modem to the computer it works fine. so the cable internet service is working fine up to the modem. The router is the problem. I have restarted both the computer and the router. so that rules that out. can you help me?

    Open the setup page of the router by launching an Internet Explorer Browser and type the address bar, 192.168.1.1 and press enter. When it prompts for the username and password, leave the username field empty and provide password as admin and click on ok.On the main setup page the ""Internet Connection Type"" should be on ""Obtain IP Automatically - DHCP “. Click on the Save Settings button.Now click on the sub tab ""MAC address clone"".- Click on enable.Click Clone & click save settings
    Check WAN Ip on Status page of router .... If getting Valid Ip .... try going online...If not ... power cycle for 4-5 minutes & then, try going online.

  • Can only connect 1 computer at a time after changing from DSL to Cable.

    I have 2 laptops using Airport cards, and one Tower connected via ethernet to Airport basestation. With DSL no problem (DSL required PPPoE). With cable I can use internet assistant and restart each device and finally connect, but only one at a time. I'll set up one, then have to reboot everything to set up the next computer and lose the connection with the first. Cable needs to use DHCP it seems.
    To get it to work with the new modem I had to change the base stations configuration from distributing IP addresses to not distributing IP addresses. Methinks this has something to do with my not being able to get more than one computer working at a time.
    Any help would be appreciated. Have to iBooks, and a G4 tower. 2 running OSX10.4.10, and one wtih 10.5.2.

    Figured it out after about an hour talking first with Comcast, then Apple support. AEBS was not acting as router at all, and had been put in bridge mode.
    Easy solution once this was realized was to do hard reset (I thought I was doing this by unplugging the AEBS, but had to actually find and press the hard reset button) which reset all the settings at which point setup was pretty easy. Made sure it was not in bridge mode, did an automatic setup using the Airport utility, and voila. Everything including my new iPod could connect.
    Now if I could only have the 6 hours back that I spent going around in circles in bridge mode.

  • Switched from DSL to cable modem. My Airport light won't turn green. Keeps blinking orange. No wireless now and can't connect to more than one computer! ?????

    Hmmmm.
    If you reset the AirPort Extreme by holding in the reset button for 9-10 seconds and then releasing, the AirPort should be back in default settings which would allow mutliple computers to connect to the LAN ports on the AirPort.
    Power off the cable modem for now and leave it off at least 15 minutes.
    With the AirPort Extreme still powered on, hold in the rest button on the back for 9-10 seconds and release. Allow a full minute for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking abmer light.
    Then, power off the AirPort Extreme.
    Check to make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
    After the modem has been powered off for at least 15 minutes, power it up and let it run for 5 minutes by itself.
    Now, power up the AirPort Exteme and let it run for 2-3 minutes
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Express
    Click on the AirPort Exteme, then click Continue to follow the guided setup tp configure the AirPort Extreme.  You can use the same wireless network name, password, etc that you used before, or set up a new name and password, etc.

  • Deskjet Advantage 3540 (Envy 4500): Computer won't connect with printer during software installation

    I just bought this printer and I am trying to install it by using the HP installation CD but I am running into difficulties to complete the process. The problem is that the computer won't connect with the printer (but my printer connects fine with my Wi-Fi network) and installation does not complete.
    The HP software installation process appears to go  normally (at least no error messages are shown) but when it gets to the part where it asks me how I would like to connect to the printer (Wireless or USB cable) I get an error message when I select Wireless Mode. My printer appears listed but as soon as I select it, a dialog is shown stating that "network installation could not be performed".
    Below are the dialogs and what happens (text is in portuguese but you get the idea)
    Dialog 1: selecting wireless connection mode
    Dialog 2: printer appears in list and I select it
    Dialog 3: Error message is shown, no further details
    Here are some more facts:
    (1) Printer connect fines with my Wi-Fi network: the connection details are correctly shown in its display (Wi-Fi SSID and IP 192.168.0.6) ;
    (2) If I go to a web browser in my computer and type in the IP address, I can access the printer's webpage fine;
    (3) I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling HP software;
    (4) I've resetted my router;
    (5) I've executed "HP Print and Scan Doctor" utility and it states my software hasn't been installed (which I don't understand) and it tries to download HP software and install one more time and I get to the error.
    (6) If I go to "Start" menu, I can see the HP group is empty (installation only creates icons on my desktop). See picture below:
    My OS is Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate (Service Pack 1)
    EDIT: I've just discovered the inkjet Advantage 3540 and Envy 4500 appear to be the same printer, each target to a different market.
    Help is much appreciated as I tried a lot of things to make this printer work wirelessly with my computer but without success.
    Thank you,

  • Connect Software won't connect to router after resetting router on any of my computers

    I had to do a reset of the router. I have done it with the button on back and through the web based interface. I have followed all directions on uninstalling connect after restarting the router. I get an error that says it does not know if it is connected to the internet.. Well it isn't. I have tried numerous times and the connect will not install. I would like to get it back the way it was when I originally installed it. The key does remember the admin and password but it only allows me to get to the web based interface.
    I have tried everything I know to get the key to work again to no avail.
    Could someone please tell me what I am missing when I try to use the connect software after resetting the router?
    Thank you so very much!!!!

    So as per the concern you mentioned that Cisco Connect Software won't connect to the Internet after resetting the router... So could you inform us the model number of the Router that you are using it in the Network...
    As well as please inform us that who provides you Internet means who is your ISP ( Internet Service Provider ) ? Check if you can go online from the modem connected directly to the computer... If you can browse the Internet then check whether there is any manual IP address given to your computer or not...

  • New computer won't connect to internet

    I just got a new hp pavillion computer and it won't connect to my wireless. The details say something about IPv6 connectivity having no network access. I'm sending this from a borrowed Nook Color and my wireless is working just fine. Can anyone please help me?

    Sorry about that; it's an HP Pavillion 20.  However, after calling everyone under the sun, I found out that my router was too old (bought in 2004) so I went and bought a new wireless router.  I'm online now and everything is great.

  • IPod touch won't connect to iTunes after update

    I updated my iPod touch but now it won't connect to iTunes, all I get is the connect to iTunes screen. I followed all the directions for the Apple support including shuting down my iPod, uninstalling all Apple programs from my computer, restarting my computer and reinstalling iTunes, as well as "using Msconfig to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows 7," but nothing has worked. Is there anything else I can do?

    This is a step they should make MUCH easier to find for Ipod users. Here's the link: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538?viewlocale=en_US
    I don't know how directive the link is, but the short and easy of it is this:
    1. Go to your device manager
    2. Click 'View' and select Devices By Connection
    3. Make sure ACPI x64 (or 32) - based PC is expanded (Windows 7 users)
    4. Scroll down until you see 'USB Composite Device'
       - you should see Apple Mobile Device (recovery mode) in there or something similar
    5. Right click the composite device and choose Update Driver Software
    6. DO NOT automatically install software; choose 'browse my computer' instead
    7. Choose to pick from a list of devices on your pc
    8. Click "Have Disk" and browse your computer to this address:
         C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    9. Double click the usbaapl.inf file (it may have 64 next to it)
    10. Click OK and continue the install process, including the 'Restore step when iTunes opens...AND THAT'S IT!!
    Your iTunes will take all the appropriate steps (5-10 minutes) to restore your iPod. If I missed anything let me know. Otherwise, pass this on to your friends as Apple has made it inherently difficult to hunt down. Good luck!!
