Connect to wireless printer for first time

I'm trying to connect to my Epson Artisan 810 printer with my brand new mac for the first time.  I'm new to mac so please forgive my ignorance.  With my windows xp laptop, I downloaded the driver from Epson, installed, it found my printer and I was off to the races.
For the mac, do I need to connect to the printer with a usb cable for the first time?  I went to the epson site and it sounds like I click on the apple, select updates and something should happen, but nothing.  I've tried to discover devices thinking that would trigger something, but all that it has found is the memory card on the epson printer.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks,
toby

Sig,
Thanks, but this is an existing printer that is already set up to my network and works great printing wirelessly for iPads, google print, win7, etc.  My issue was getting my mac book pro to print.  I'm new, very new to macs and after following the instructions for setup, it still didn't work.  I found this article on justanswer and it worked great.
Seems once I plugged into the printer, mac recognized the printer and did its update, I had to disconnect from the usb, shutdown the printer, reset print and fax in mac preferences, reboot the mac.  Once mac came up, i restarted the printer, went back into print and fax and selected the "+" sign to add the printer back in.  Once I did that, printing was working great.  Seems like a lot of steps compared to what I did for xp laptop and win7 laptop, but I'm still liking the mac.  I just wish some of this stuff was documented better on apple's site.
Again, thanks for the help.  I'm sure I'll be asking more questions.

  • Setting up wireless printing for first time

    I have a 3-year old Airport Extreme base station (compatible with 802.11b). I currently use it with several Mac laptops and one PC desktop to access the internet. I am buying a new laser printer and would like to print wirelessly. Will any printer work, or do I need to get one that is network ready? Will a laser all-in-one work?

    keenpeach, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Will any printer work...
    No but many do.
    ...or do I need to get one that is network ready?
    Not if you connect it to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
    Will a laser all-in-one work?
    The USB port on the AEBS only supports printing... not scanning nor faxing.

  • Just hooked up new apple tv for first time. able to connect to internet (netflix, youtube) but not able to connect to my itunes account via home sharing. apple tv tells me to make sure computer's itunes has home-sharing enabled, which it does. any advice?

    Just hooked up new apple tv for first time. able to connect to internet (netflix, youtube) but not able to connect to my itunes account via home sharing. apple tv tells me to make sure computer's itunes has home-sharing enabled, which it does. any advice?

    Have done both suggestions, still not working. Could it have somehting to do with my local network? I am using a wireless Internet provided by my apartment building so not sure if apple tv and my computer are not technically on the same "local network?"
    apple tv and main computer are connecting to Internet fine. Just cannot see my itunes on apple tv.
    any other advice? My itunes is turned on to home sharing. i entered the same apple itunes account into aple tv. but appletv keeps saying my computer's home sharing is not turned on...but it is.

  • HT201250 i am using for first time the time machine and an external hard drive because I want to erase my macbook and start from zero files. do i keep my files in the portable hard disk when I connect it again with the macbook or the time machine will era

    i am using for first time the time machine and an external hard drive because I want to erase my macbook and start from zero files. Am i keeping my files in the portable hard disk when I will connect it again with the macbook or the time machine will erase all?
    I would like to know if after I erase all my data, empy hard drive inside the macbook, the time machine will erase all my files that I have saved in my "WD "My passport" external hard drive

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Time Machine has to erase the external disk in order to make backups. Before setting Time Machine up, copy the files of your external disk to the hard disk of the Mac in order not to lose them, and then, set up Time Machine. The first backup will start automatically.
    If you want more information about Time Machine, read the Pondini's site > http://pondini.org

    Using win 7 and latest iTunes [10.6.3]. Have already gone through below links and did not find any solution.

    I was hoping it would be something like a USB device conflict, but now the shuffle is the only thing connected...
    This article was one of the ones you linked to above in your initial post
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
    Under Part 9. Verify that USB drivers are installed, did you try the steps in If only "Unknown Device" appears?  That appears to be your situation.
    Also, you said that the shuffle initially worked well enough to do a sync, then it had the same problem again.  If you can get it to work again initially, before doing anything else, try the following.  Select the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, go to the Summary tab.  By default, the checkbox for Enable disk use should be unchecked.  If so, check it and Apply the change.  See if that makes any difference. 
    (If Enable disk use was already checked, try unchecking it and Apply the change.  Basically, set it the "other way" and see if there is any improvement.)
    NOTE:  When disk use is enabled, you have to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it physically.
    If the disk use change makes a difference, that may provide a clue about the actual cause.

  • Performance issue in browsing SSAS cube using Excel for first time after cube refresh

    Hello Group Members,
    This is a continuation of my earlier blog question -
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a1e424a2-f102-4165-a597-f464cf03ebb5/cache-and-performance-issue-in-browsing-ssas-cube-using-excel-for-first-time?forum=sqlanalysisservices
    As that thread is marked as answer, but my issue is not resolved, I am creating a new thread.
    I am facing a cache and performance issue for the first time when I try to open a SSAS cube connection using Excel (using Data tab  -> From Other Sources --> From Analysis Services) after daily cube refresh. In end users system (8 GB RAM but around
    4GB available RAM), for the first time, it takes 10 minutes to open the cube. From next run onwards, its open up quickly within 10 secs.
    We have daily ETL process running in high end servers. The configuration of dedicated SSAS cube server is 8 core, 64GB RAM. In total we have 4 cube DB - out of which for 3 is full cube refresh and 1 is incremental refresh. We have seen after daily cube
    refresh, it takes 10 odd minutes to open the cube in end users system. From next time onwards, it opens up really fast with 10 secs. After cube refresh, in server systems (32 GB RAM, around 4GB available RAM), it takes 2 odd minutes to open the cube.
    Is there, any way we could reduce the time taken for first attempt ?
    As mentioned in my previous thread, we have already implemented a cube wraming cache. But, there is no improvement.
    Currently, the cumulative size of the all 4 cube DB are more than 9 GB in Production and each cube DB having 4 individual cubes in average with highest cube DB size is 3.5 GB. Now, the question is how excel works with SSAS cube after
    daily cube refresh?
    Is it Excel creates a cache of the schema and data after each time cube is refreshed and in doing so it need to download the cube schema in Excel's memory? Now to download the the schema and data of each cube database from server to client, it will take
    a significant time based on the bandwidth of the network and connection.
    Is it anyway dependent to client system RAM ? Today the bigest cube DB size is 3.5 GB, tomorrow it will be 5-6 GB. Now, though client system RAM is 8 GB, the available or free RAM would be around 4 GB. So, what will happen then ?
    Best Regards, Arka Mitra.

    Could you run the following two DMV queries filling in the name of the cube you're connecting to. Then please post back the row count returned from each of them (by copying them into Excel and counting the rows).
    I want to see if this is an issue I've run across before with thousands of dimension attributes and MDSCHEMA_CUBES performance.
    select [HIERARCHY_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_hierarchies
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    select [LEVEL_UNIQUE_NAME]
    from $system.mdschema_levels
    where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
    Also, what version of Analysis Services is it? If you connect Object Explorer in Management Studio to SSAS, what's the exact version number it says on the top server node?

  • How long does it take to connect to Wi-Fi the first time I use my Ipad? It's been over 30 minutes. I see that it wants to connect but it keeps on turning.

    How long does it take to connect to Wi-Fi the first time I use my Ipad? It's been over 30 minutes. I see that it wants to connect but it keeps on turning.

    It should not take very long. Up to thirty seconds tops depending on your Wi-Fi network.
    Try rebooting your Wi-Fi router. Turn off the router for 30 seconds then turn it back on. After the router completes its startup routine and indicates a good connection to the internet start you iPad again and see if it will connect.
    If you still have problems you might try connecting to a different Wi-Fi network. Maybe one at your local coffee shop or library.

  • ADF application taking more time for first time and less from second time

    Hi Experts,
    We are using ADF 11.1.1.2.
    Our application contains 5 jsp pages, 10 - 12 taskflows, and 50 jsff pages.
    For the first time in the day if we use the application it is taking more than 60 sec on some actions.
    And from the next time onwords it is taking 5 to 6 sec.
    Same thing is happening daily.
    Can any one tell me why this application is taking more time for first time and less time from second time.
    Regards

    Hi,
    If you don't restart you WLS every day, then you should read about Tuning Application Module Pools and Connection Pools
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E15523_01/web.1111/b31974/bcampool.htm#sm0301
    And pay attention to the parameter: Maximum Available Size, Minimum Available Size

    And adjust them to suit your needs.

    Did you perhaps do a custom install? The DB software includes a version of sql developer and, by default, installs it in the sqldeveloper folder of the DB_HOME. Does that folder have sql developer in it?
    I suggest that you NOT use the version of sql developer that ships with the database. That version will NOT be the current version.
    Download the current version of SQL Developer, unzip it into a new folder and create a desktop icon for it.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
    The current version includes many, many bug fixes from that earlier DB version and you will have far fewer probems with it.

  • Re transmission bit is set even when packet is transmitting for first time in AP-STA Concurrent testing

    Hi ,
    Test case scenario : STA-AP Concurrent test case.
    1. STAUT interface of CSR-DUT connected to Cisco-AP1252AG and T.P Ref Station Atheros-9462 connected to APUT-CSR.
    2. Run Rx traffic between Cisco-AP1252AG to STAUT-CSR and Atheros to APUT-CSR ( i,e TCP Rx/RX ) Simultaneously .
    Observations :
    1. Re transmission bit is set for packets transmitting for first time -- As seen in sniffer , Please find the attached file -- Retransmission_bit_error_capture for the instance show like wise we have many instance of the issue occurrence .
    2. There might be chance where sniffer is missing these packets but at the same time DUT cannot miss and we should be able to see Block ACK from DUT and this is not happening and more over it is happening at many instances also refer the attached sniffer capture -- TCP_rx-rx-25-19Mbps for further investigation on the issue.
    Please some one help us to understand / solve the above issue explained.
