Computer won't connect to printer network

Computer: Dell Inspiron 15
Operating System: Windows 8
Printer: HP OfficeJet 7110
I work in an office and 5 of us share the printer. I installed the software on all the other computers and they connect to the printer fine.
I installed the software for the printer and it worked on that day. However, after that it never connected  wirelessly again. I reinstalled the drivers and it worked on that day and again after that never again. 

Download and run this: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c03286146&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en

  • 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,
    Joao Pedro

  • Hp C4580 printer won't connect to wireless network, but see network is available.

    I've sat through quite a few of the threads here with regard to photsmart C4580 printer not connecting to wireless network.
    My issues started with a cartridge issue, which I resolved with a new cartridge, but only after trying out different solution offered on HP forum.
    Now printer won't connect to my network which it has been connected to for over 2 years with no issues. The wireless network is working perfectly fine and I even printed out a HP photosmart C4500 series connectivity status and in this report printer can see the network I need to connect to.
    I've tried downloading various programs from Scan doctor to complete install of all HP programs and even tried installing printer from Windows 7 "add a printer", but none can see this printer.
    lastly I was hoping trying to locate IP address for printer which looks like it may help, but report says IP Address "not applicable".
    I believe printer, wireless network and PC are working correctly, this there a way to switch printer to online so it can be seen.
    Help would be great.

  • Mac mini won't connect to printer unless other mac on network turned on

    mac mini won't connect to printer unless other mac on network turned on

    Copy the IP address of the printer from the Mac that can connect to it by itself. The IP shows when you start any print job.
    Disable Printer sharing on this Mac.
    Go to the Mac that cannot connect by itself and set up the printer from scratch using the printer's IP. To do this:
    System Preferences / Print & Scan, then click the + sign, nxt select Add Printer or Scanner and click on IP. Fill in the info.

  • My iMac won't connect to my network

    My iMac won't connect to the internet anymore. I can only get internet connection through someone elses network.
    It connected okay to my network when I first plugged it in. Everything was coming up roses and such. I'm thinking though it might have something to do with my pc. I gave my mom my pc and cleaned off everything. After re-installing the drivers, programs, and re-installing the wireless info on the pc, my mac won't connect to the network
    There is a password for connecting to the network a wep 128. But my mac keeps telling me the password is wrong. And the only way to connect to the interent for me is via the Dlink connection.
    We have a Linksys Wireless Router (WRT54G)
    My mom has windows XP with wireless capability
    My mac has the airport extreme already in the computer
    I'm sure the problem is something really simple and minor and that I will kick myself for not figuring it out. :S
    But any help would be great
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The only other connection I get is through a unsecured dlink.
    I tried using network assistant to get on the linksys network but when I put in the password for it I keep getting a message that says invalid.

  • My new computer won't recognize my printer (HP4500 Officejet Wireless) in the wireless or wired mode

    MY new computer won't recognize my printer in either the connected or wireless mode.  When I hit "search for printers" it finds my neighbors wireless printer 100 yards away, and another net, but not mine sitting right beside it.

    Hi,
    Have you installed its software abd drivers on your computer yet ? Please use the CD which came with the printer. By the way, what is your Officejet 4500 ? It must be G510something.
    Regards.

  • My Iphone 5 won't connect to a network or wifi

  • Help! My computer won't recognize my printer!

    I'm a college student, and I have tons of papers and files that I need to print. However, my computer won't recognize my printer. It is working and set up, I plugged it into my roommate's computer (a PC) to see if maybe the USB cable was bad; that wasn't the case.
    I've tried to manually add the printer, but I don't have any Printer folder whatsoever in Utilities. If I go into System & Preferences, Printers & Fax, and try to click on the Set Up Printers button, nothing happens. I'm at the end of my ropes. Please help!
    Also, the .pdf files for a lecture that I need to print aren't working as well; they worked just fine on my roommate's computer, but when I open them with Preview on my iBook, it is just blank. Does anyone know why this is happening?
    Please help me, ASAP! Any advice/anything is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    need more info:
    what kind of printer is it?
    do have the drivers for it?
    do have the printer setup utility?
    what version of the OS do you have?
    if you have OSX at least, then :
    if you can access the utilities folder, you should be able to find the Printer setup Utility. If you do not have that , the n you need to archive and install :
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    if you do have the Printer Setup Utility, then
    open that up, it will open a window called " Printer List"
    click on " Add"
    - that will open a window called Printer Browser
    - if the printer is plugged in and powered on, you will see the printer name listed there.
    - select it , then click on " add " in the bottom right
    - if you do not see any printer listed in the printer browser, then try a different usb port and try again.
    - if you are able to add the printer, then try a test print, it should work with a default driver.

  • Iphone won't connect to wifi network

    iPhone won't connect to a wifi network - just get a message saying it won't connect to the network (it doesn't give me a message that I've got the password wrong). Other devices do join the network OK
    What should I do to try t resolve it?

    Hi,
    I bought my iPhone 4s yesterday and I'm having the same problem, my laptop, my old HTC Legend and my work macbook all connect to my wifi no problems.  My iPhone won't.
    I've read through everything I can find on here, and on Sky help and have tried:
    Resetting router
    Resetting network settings on iphone
    Using MAC address access control on the router
    Changing channels on the router
    Switching everything off and on
    Someone suggested doing 'forget network' on the iphone, but I can't find this option
    Turning off 3G and mobile data and trying to connect
    Checking password is correct (it is)
    Kind of at a loss now as to what I can do, I've emailed Sky and waiting for their advice, but should I take it back to the shop to exchange it?  Everything else I have connects just fine, no problem.
    It just says "unable to join network"
    Anyone help?
    Thanks

  • My Powermac G4 AGP won't connect to a network through an airport card.

    I have a powermac G4 AGP that won't connect to any networks via airport wireless card.  An error message pops up on the screen after trying to connect.  Displayed is "There was an error when trying to connect to the preferred network." Can anyone help me with this? 

    Hi Scott,
    What Encryption do those Networks use... Open, WEP, WPA, WPA2?
    The Original 802.11b Airport card cannot do WPA2, most will do WPA with a Firmware update, it should do WEP or Open networks.
    Do any of those Routers support 802.11b/g, or just 802.11n?

  • My mac book won't connect to any networks.

    My mac book 7,1 won't connect to any networks (wireless connection) . It says "ALERT NO INTERNET CONNECTION" . The configuration IPv4 is on: Using DHCP. So, I don't understand why it's telling me this, and how i can fix it.

    What do the Apple OS X network diagnostics report:
     > System Preferences > Network > Assist Me... > Diagnostics ...
    about your network connection?
    Do the networking problems here also effect connections via a wired network?
    Have you tried a different wireless network?   Does connecting at a library, café or Apple store work?
    I'm going to assume that you're not running OS X Server 10.6 on this MacBook — that would be unusual — and that you're probably running the client version of OS X 10.6, and are here in this forum because you saw the 10.6 in the forum title.  If I'm wrong here, there can potentially be other triggers for the network outage.  OS X Server management is rather different from whe OS X that Apple installs on a MacBook.
