Connecting a non HP printer

I have a Kodak All-In-One 3250 Printer installed on my HP laptop and have a wireless router.  Is there any way I can set it up so that not only I'll be able to use it, but also my daughters thru their laptops?  If so, how do I set it up?

Hi,
Based on the following document, under Connectivity, it only has USB connection:
   http://resources.kodak.com/support/pdf/en/manuals/urg01093/ESP3200Series_XUG_GLB_en.pdf
You can buy a print server or an USB Wireless print server ... to share the printer. From my calculation, this cost is higher than buying a new printer which has network connectivity already. You can also avoid headache later. It's your choice.
Regards.

  • Connect a non-AirPrint printer to an extended Airport Express

    I connect a WiFi-capable but non-AirPrint Epson printer to an Airport Express (2nd Gen) by USB, and the Airport Express is extending the WiFi network (5 GHz) of an AirPort Time Capsule.
    How to config them to use AirPrint from my iPhone which said there was "No AirPrint Printers Found"?

    You will need to install additional software on your Mac to possibly allow the iPhone to print to your non-AirPrint printer.
    A popular choice is Printopia.  There is a free trial period, so you will know if it will work before you buy.

  • Can you print from an iPad to non wireless printer connected to timecapsule

    I just purchase an iPad. Can I print to non wireless printer connected to timecapsule? If yes, what app do I need for the iPad?

    You might want to take a look at Print Central or Printopia.

    I can verify that Printopia works just fine for me on my iPad, but haven't tried Print Central.

  • How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer?

    How can I print from ipad to non wireless printer. 
    ....been trying to save document to pc to print.... but cant find a way to do so.....?

    Actually you can print to a non wireless printer if you have apps on the iPad and your computer that will do this and as long as you can set up a WiFi network or the iPad and the computer are already on the same network.
    I Am running an old OSX version on my iMac at work (Tiger OSX 10.4.11) and I have an app on my iPad called Save2 pdf. I downloaded a helper app on the Mac called WePrint. I do not have WiFi at work, but I create a WiFi network using the Ethernet connection to the Mac that my iPad can also join. As long as I can send the file/text/document to the Save2pdf app, I can print it on my old HP LaserWriter1012 which is not a wireless printer. This uses the Mac as the print server and the WePrint app on the Mac sends the doecument to the printer.
    It's not a very elegant solution, and it is a little convoluted, but it does work.

  • How can I print from my iPhone to a non AirPrint printer

    How can I print from my iPhone to a non AirPrint printer?  I was told by an Apple tech to do so via Airpot Express USB port. I already have a wired and wireless network and printers connected via Ethernet.  I am just trying to print from my iPad and/or iPhone to my existing printers...if possible. I tried the airport express but that does not appear to do what I need. Any help or a definitive "no way" would be appreciated.

    There are third-party apps that permit this. If on a MAC, get this:

  • You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer

    Environment
    Print server: Windows 2008 R2 SP1
    Clients: Windows XP SP3 + GPP
    Drivers:
    HP UPD PCL6 5.3.1.10527
    Intermec 7.2.2
    Ricoh UPD PS 3.9.0.0
    Xerox UPD PS 5.216.12
    Zebra 2.6.42.03
    GPO Configuration - enables users to add printers/drivers from the print servers.
    Background
    For the last year, we've had the 2008R2 print server set up and the clients have not had any problems connecting to the print server to add printers.
    Issue
    Over the past ~3 weeks, we've gotten spurious reports from users stating they're unable to add a printer. The specific error displayed is:
    You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer.
    It occurs for multiple vendors, so it's not a print driver specific issue.  I've personally witnessed the problem where (using a User's account) I was unable to add Printer X out of a list of 10 random printers.  2 minutes later, still logged on
    as the same user, I was then able to add Printer X which doesn't make any sense since nothing had changed.
    Another user logging into the same workstation will not have any problems adding the same problematic printer.  The user who had the problem can log onto a different workstation and add the same printer with no problems, so it's not a User permission
    issue either.
    Most of the time running gpupdate /force and/or rebooting the box will also 'solve' the problem.
    Running the group policy results wizard on a few random workstations (which have exhibited this problem in the past), shows everything appears to be properly configured/enabled related to GPOs, including the
    Prevent users from installing printer drivers setting per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259937
    Has anyone else ran into this problem lately?
    How does one troubleshoot this issue since I can't faithfully reproduce it on demand since it appears to resolve itself after a period of time?

    Haven't found the smoking gun to this problem, but I am getting closer.
    Troubleshooted another PC today which was exhibiting this problem for another user. Logged onto the PC with my User account and sure enough, received the same message for the same printer.   Fired up Sysinternals Process Monitor, but nothing useful
    was captured when receiving the failure message.  There was also another Point and Print printer which was present on the workstation (i.e.
    PrinterName on PrintServerName) for my User account which stated "printer cannot be removed. Access is Denied" when I tried to delete it.  Odd. Getting properties on the printer would bring up the correct info from the print server
    though, so it was valid and appeared functional.
    I tried running the new
    MS FixIT printing tool, but it failed in full mode with an admin account.
    Next, I searched through the registry for this printername which I was unable to delete. Eventually it was found at:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\PRINTERNAME
    On a hunch, I deleted the entire PrinterName key, restarted the print spooler, and then was able to add the printer with no permission errors!  There were several more printers listed in this registry key. I tried the same steps again:
    validate receiving 'sufficient access' error.
    purge printer's registry key
    restart spooler
    Able to add the same printer via point and print.
    This solved the problem on half of the printers. The others added with no errors.  The printer drivers in question are from both HP and Xerox, so I doubt it's a vendor specific issue and instead Windows (unsure if XP or 2008 though).
    It would appear that Windows caches the information about the printer/driver/settings/etc from the print server in CurrentVersion\Print\Providers\LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\PRINTERNAME ?  Why does it need to be duplicated
    in both HKLM and HKCU?
    Separate PC, further exploring this printer issue and the contents of the \LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\ keys.  On this PC, I successfully ran the MS FixIt for Printing tool in Full mode and rebooted.  After reboot, the
    System Event logged the following for multiple printers -- which should've been deleted --

    Sure enough, after checking the \LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\ keys, all of those printers which logged EventID 23 were still present!  This time, I manually deleted the entire \LanMan Print Services\Servers\PRINTSERVERNAME\Printers\
    subkeys, rebooted the PC, logged on, and those errors did not repeat. 
    Something strange is definitely going on with the printing subsystem on XP lately...

  • [Solved]Cannot connect to Windows Share printer over network.

    I'm having trouble connecting to a windows printer via Samba/CUPS.
    I've loaded the lp module, but I don't know if I need to load the USB or Parallel ports modules, or both or neither, since this is a network print.
    My organization has provided some basic instructions for Mac users. Working off of those, I have a setup with the device URI reading
    DeviceURI smb://ksong8:(password)@ucmprint.ucmerced.edu/ucmglobal?waitjob=false
    For some reason, the printer reports that it cannot connect to the CIFS share, even though it should be configured correctly.
    Even more curiously, I'm able to connect to the share manually with
    smbclient //ucmprint.ucmerced.edu/ucmglobal -U ksong8
    and then entering my password.
    Am I missing something terribly obvious here? I have a sample of logs in debug mode, but they looked okay to me (as well as very verbose), so I won't put them here. I have attached my /etc/cups/printers.conf.

    Solved.
    As it turns out, either CUPS or Samba does not like having special characters in the password inside of /etc/cups/printers.conf. They should be replaced with "%" and the appropriate ASCII hex code for the symbol.

  • Non-network printer on A Ex

    All - this is a very basic question I couldn't find the answer to after a search:
    I have a non-network printer (ie, it has a USB connection but not an ethernet port). If I plug the USB cable into an A Ex base station, can a Mac that connects wirelessly to the network print to that printer?

    I plugged it in and my iMac connects perfectly (after downloading and installing drivers).
    My PC that is connected to the A Ex by directly by a network cable (the iMac is wireless) doesn't see it. Is is possible to get a Windows computer to recognized the printer plugged into an A Ex base station?

  • Simulating a non-existent printer

    SIMULATING A NON-EXISTING PRINTER
    Before buying an expensive colour laser I would like to be able to take it for an imaginary test drive at home, check out all the printer options, generate Postscript files for the printer, and so on. Just play around with it basically. Then when I test drive in the store, I already am familiar with the printer and can really put it through its paces.
    So, is it possible to simulate having a printer if all the PPD files, and whatever other files are needed, are in the system but there is no printer connected? Or does the Mac require the printer to be present and have a two way conversation with it? I've used HP and Xerox installers but can never get the printer to come up under Print Centre, because I suppose there's no printer connected.
    Thanks in advance for any comments.

    Hi Guy,
    As you mentioned, the driver may not work if it can't actually find the printer. I've done this a few times myself. Every so often, the driver will work. Which is nice because then you can see all of the print and color options. Just as easy though is to go to the manufacturer's web site and download the user manual. They almost always have these as a PDF document.
    Beyond the actual use of the printer, color is another issue. Since all papers affect how color will look from the same printer, there's no way to tell what you'll get in regard to color unless you print on the paper you will be using. Better of course to profile it first if there is no profile from the manufacturer for the type of paper you want to use. But then you need profiling software and hardware.

  • Can "share this printer" on a MacBook pro allow my iDevices to print on a non AirPrint printer?

    I have an Epson USB printer CX7400 (does not have AirPrint) connected to an Apple Airport Express that is connected to an Apple Time Capsule wirelessly.
    I can print from my MacBook and other Ubuntu systems.
    But...
    I have iDevices (iPad etc) that I would like to print from to.
    I have a MacBook pro with the current operating system and updates and notice that I can share the printer on the network.
    I have seen posts (might be old?) where that was enough to print from and iPad or iPhone etc?
    Is that still true?
    THANK YOU for taking your time to write!
    NOTES:
    IPad Air, Macbook Pro mid 2012.
    I did not get the impression the Epson was supported with the Epson app but I could wrong.

    No, but you might be able to print from the iOS devices but installing an App like Printopia on your Mac.  Printopia has a free trial, so you will know if it will work before you buy.

  • I want "non HP printer cartridge" pop ups to go away on my Mac Mini computer. Please help

    When my son is streaming Netflix, "non HP Printer cartridge" pop ups cover the screen like a virus has taken over. 
    No matter if I close them out or hit OK, they just sit there and I have to drag them over to the right lower corner and they will not be trashed.  I have an HP  Photosmart 6520 that is connected wirelessly. HP phone tech support told me that because it is a non HP cartridge (refill) , that happens to work better and longer than the original HP cartridges, they cannot help me get the pop ups to go away.  Funny thing is that the printer has always worked well with these cartridges, and these pop ups just started appearing after I upgraded my Mac to the latest update.  HP tech support told me to turn the wireless "Off" on the printer and said maybe that would help.  Solutions???     Joseph

    Hello heyjophi,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with a "non HP Printer cartridge" pop up on the screen.
    This pop up will more than likely keep happening as long as you are using cartridges that are refilled.  The cartridge has a chip that lets the printer know how long it has been in the printer and it causes a popup on the computer screen. The only other way to get rid of this, other than using Genuine HP ink cartridges, is to uninstall the software from the Mac.
    I do apologize for the inconvenience on this matter.
    Thanks for your time.

  • IPad printing to non AirPrint printer???

    Is there a way to print from ipad to a non AirPrint printer?
    I have a HP OfficeJet Pro L7680 which works fine with my PC but I don't want to buy a new printer.
    Is there an app for this or adaptors which could work?
    thank, peter

    Hello Pedhed36,
    I've included a link below with ePrint info.  (eMail addy, etc.)  Good Luck!
    To find your HP ePrint email address:
    Go to ePrintCenter and log into your account, you will see your email address in the ePrint panel.
    Look for the ePrint icon: 
    For Photosmart: On the printer's front panel display, touch Wireless>Web Services>Display Email, or if available on your device, touch the ePrint icon on the printer front panel. 
    For Officejet: On the printer's front panel display, touch the ePrint icon (4.3” display only) to display the email address or Setup>Web Services Setup>Printer Email Address to reprint the information sheet. 
    Photosmart Only: If you register your printer at ePrintCenter.com, your email address displays on the ePrint panel. 
    For LaserJet: On the printer's front panel display, touch the ePrint icon or “How to Connect” to display the email address. For LaserJet printers with the small 2 line display, please print out the information sheet to see the email address.

  • How to connect my iPad, Brother printer, and AirPort Extreme?

    How to connect my iPad, Brother printer, and AirPort Extreme?

    I don't believe any of the Brother printers are AirPrint-enabled. Is your Brother printer network-ready? That is, does is support either/both a wired or wireless connection or just uses USB to connect?

  • Setting up a new TC.  Everything went fine.  I was able to connect a macbook air, 2 ipads, an Iphone 6, and even a windows 7 PC.  All devices showed a complete and functioning internet connection, but none of the devices could access the internet.

    I am trying to set up internet connection to my home using a 3gig Airport time capsule as a router.  I unplugged the cable from the existing router, and plugged it into the ethernet port of the TC.  The TC fired up found tttttttthe internet connection, and glowed green.  I set up the password, and all, and was then able to connect a Windows 7 PC, 2 ipads, and iphone 6, and a macbbook air, all running the most current os.  All devices connect with the internet via the Airport device.  they all say that there is a fully functioning internet connection, but none of them can actually connect to the internet.  When I run a speed test via OKLA I am told that the test failed to innatiate.When I try to do a search I get an error message that the page cannot open because safari cannot make a secure connection to the server.
    Any suggestions?

    Inside the house I have what looks like a phone cable that is plugged into a power supply, and into a router.
    What is this router?? Is it the TC or a router supplied by the ISP?
    It will depend on how the system works.. but the instructions from skybeam are fairly simple.. you just setup a router with dhcp set on the WAN port for connection.
    On the airport utility open your TC by clicking it then clicking edit.
    Make sure the WAN is set correctly and the ISP ethernet cable is plugged into it.
    And make sure Network is set to DHCP and NAT.
    Please give me the screenshots of the same things from your setup.
