Scanner and Wireless Printing Not Working

Most of the features in my new printer are not functioning probley. The scanner does not work at all. Whether I'm using th wireless network or the printer is connected with UBS. Wireless printing is not working too. I don't know what to do. I tried to contact the customer support, but in order to do that, I had to provide the serial number. I put the number, but it said that they're unable to identify the serial number. Listed below all the information pf my frustrating printer.
My compurt is MacBook Air. OSX 10.7.5
Model: Deskjet 3050A J611
Serial No.: {Removed for privacy}
FPU No.: CR23164001

Hi Alsahafi,
I mention they were unable to verify the serial, was this a new in box printer?
Also, make sure you've installed the full feature driver for your OS X version, you can find this download here.

Apple airport express wireless printing not working on Windows

I have installed the Airport Utility v 5.5.3 and Bonjour Printer Wizard on my Windows XP (SP3) machine. I have successfully set up the router, but am unable to print wirelessly. In the utility, I see my printer and have selected the checkbox Share printers over WAN. I have the driver printers installed on a Windows laptop, but am unsuccessful printing from the laptop.
I read somewhere that I need to set the Internet > Connection Sharing to Off (Bridge Mode). I did that and then got the following error and then can't connect to the internet via the router at all:
An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again. Error -6753.
I have tried setting up Bridge Mode several times and ensured my virus protection and firewall were disabled, but always the same results, so I reset my router and am back to using the Internet > Connection Sharing option of Share a public IP address.
The whole reason I bought this router is because it is supposed to be easy for wireless printing, but this has been far from easy to set up. So frustrating. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your quick response. Yes, I have Bonjour Print Services installed. I thought I had to select Share printers over WAN for some reason. Just now I deselected this setting, updated the utility and wireless printing still does not work .

HP 6980 wireless printing not working

I cannot get my printer to go wireless. I have tried all the advice I have seen so far but teh wireless does not seem to connect.
I have tried the SES but the wireless light continues flashing and then turns off.
I have gone into the printer through its IP address and it does not come up with the router in the list.
I have manually entered all the details in the advanced tab, but when I unplug the ethernet cable the report page says
wireless status disabled (even though the blue light is on)
I can only think that the wireless facility is broken or am I missing something.
I am working from windows 7 and the driverers are installed and working normally when connected by ethernet cable.

Does anybody have an idea where to start looking at least? Where could be the problem?

Wireless printing not working properly on HP officejet 4500

Hi,
I have recently bought the OfficeJet 4500 wireless printer.
Now I have a problem when printing a document from wireless connection. When I send a document to be printed from wireless network, it does not transfer completely, and the document can’t be printed completely. This accurse when sending small files (128 KB) and a bit larger (1,14 MB) files.
When printing the same document when connected to the printer with the usb cable, the document will print correctly.
I have followed the steps of wizard for wireless set up, and when I printed the confirmation page, all was set correctly.
The router I’m using is a Linksys WRT45GL. The IPs are set by dhcp and I don’t have a MAC filter active.
Can you help me with my problem?

HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m Wireless Printing Not Working

I have a HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m running as a network printer that is not working on my Windows 8.1 laptop. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the all-in-one software, which did not help (and the solution center software had issues, but a test page did successfully print), nor did the HP troubleshooting software.
Whenever I click print nothing seems to happen, I see no document in the spooler. I have also tried selecting the 'printer properties' only to have a pop up say the driver is not installed.
I need help!!!!

Hi ZacharyW, and thanks for getting back to me!
I know you have uninstalled in the past, but I would like to take a bit of a different approach:
First, you'll want to uninstall the current software:
Uninstalling the Printer Software
Then, put your printer into clean boot mode:
How to perform a clean boot in Windows
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, reinstall the software via the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Good luck and please keep me posted!

C7289 All in one- wireless printing not working

It looks like all connected for wireless printing, however, nohing will print! Please help

Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer (Setup > Network area). Does the printer have a valid IP address (not 0.0.0.0 or 169.254.x.x)?
Tell me about your network - router brand/model, encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc) and ISP type (DSL, Cable, etc).
What operating system?

Wireless printer not working after 10.5 upgrade

My Canon All-in one MP600 was working fine using 10.4.11 and Airport Extreme Base Station. I upgraded to 10.5.4 and now the printer does not work. I checked the Airport utility and the printer shows under printer. The printer works fine on my wife's MacBook. The old printer setup utility app is not present on 10.5. Am I missing something? I followed the instructions to install the wireless printer but it still does not work. It works fine when I use the USB cable directly to my powerbook G4.

Found problem. Removed printer from Sys Prefs -> Printers and Fax and re-installed it. Works now.

Hp Deskjet 6988 Wireless Printer Can't Remove Ink Cartridge. White piece in the way.

Unable to remove ink cartridges there is a white plastic card in the way. It has icons of an arrow pointing to a circle and what appears to be a clock.
How do I move it so I can replace my ink?

Hi @Re-Creativity , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I see you are experiencing cartridge issues. I would like to help!
I would recommend starting with a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I'd then recommend this document:

Epson NX420 wireless printing not working

After upgrading to Yosemite, I noticed the printing capability on my NX420 was gone. I get communication errors and a prompt to download software; but after downing, a notice for error downloading. No updates show up via App store.
I have downloaded the software via Epson and installed; but it still doesn't work. My son's i5 iMac running Yosemite is printing fine wirelessly.

Not working and light blinks orange?

My Airport Express is connected to powered computer speakers and was able to receive my iTunes over the network.
Now for some reason it is not working and the light is blinking orange?

Hi
Status light blinking amber means:
AirPort Express has completed its start up sequence but has no IP connection (due to out of network range, Ethernet unplugged, no path to Internet or local router, ISP problem, set up as wireless client but not in access control list, etc.)
I would unplug it leave it for a bit then plug it back in. If this doesn't work, then reset it.

Camera not working and light blinking after upgrade

After upgrading to Mavericks, the built-in camera on my MacBook Air (mid-2013) has stopped working in all applications. When I start an application that uses the camera, the image does not appear, and the camera light blinks rapidly until I close the application. Console shows the following messages:
11/24/13 11:34:08.000 a.m. kernel[0]: AppleCamIn::power_off_hardware
11/24/13 11:34:08.000 a.m. kernel[0]: AppleCamIn::power_on_hardware
11/24/13 11:34:09.000 a.m. kernel[0]: ISPCPU: ERR: ./H4ISPCD/filters/IC/CImageCaptureH4FSM.cpp, 452: FlowIC00: MIPI error (interrupt source = 0x8)

The latter two messages repeat until I close the application.
This is not the same problem as the Skype camera issue that was resolved with a previous update. I have tried resetting the NVRAM and PMU, reinstalling Mavericks, and using the guest account.
This user has the same issue: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23721483#23721483
Any help would be greatly appreciated — I would really like to have my camera working!

Hello grmurchison,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your built-in iSight camera. You have taken some really great steps to isolate and troubleshoot the issue. I found an article with a couple of additional steps (you can skip the steps you have already taken):
Built-in iSight cameras
These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
See if the issue is application-specific.
Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
See if the issue is user-specific.
Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
Reset SMC or PMU
Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

MFP 177 wireless printing not work on win8.1

Hi,
Just bought a HP color Laserjet MFP177 4 in one printer. After installation (and many attempts) i am failng to print from my PC. However it did print the test page at the time of installation and scanning function is working fine.
Please help

Hi @Razeen ,
I see that you are not able to print over the wireless network, but you can scan. I can help you with this.
Temporarily turn off any Firewalls to make sure they aren't interfering.
I have provided a document to try and resolve this issue. Also download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it.
'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print.
Disregard the title.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a great day!
Thank You.

Updated to v4.5 now phone not working, red light blinking

K...so I updated to the new software v4.5 on my 8320 curve and now it is not booting up and the red light is blinking twice every few seconds. I have already removed the battery and done everything that I can think of without using JML because I don't want to lose my info....please help...thanks.

I fixed my problem. I found this on the tmobile support site, and it worked after the second try.
Handheld does not turn on and the light flashes
Ensure the handheld is NOT connected to the computer.
In BlackBerry Desktop Manager, open Application Loader and Update Applications.
Remove the battery in the handheld.
Reconnect the handheld to the computer
When the Drop-down list on the Communication Port Selection window changes to USBIN, click Next.Note: If there is no USB option in the drop-down disconnect the device, remove the battery and re-connect the device without the battery.
If the Handheld Password Required dialog box appears, type your password. The Application loader will detect the BlackBerry device.
Proceed with running Application Loader. Allow the Application Loader process to complete; this can take 30 - 45 minutes.Note: If the battery was removed during step 5, make sure it is re-inserted when the Application Loader comes to the Wait For Device Initialization stage.
Do not disconnect the device from the computer until you receive a message your PC, “The loading operation was successful.”

Can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 Wireless Printer with the AirPort Extreme Base. The printer is NOT connected at the USB port of the AirPort Extreme, and is placed in another room. It worked just fine with my previous router (Linksys WRT54G). Help me!

Hey Guys!
I just got my AirPort Extreme Base, but I can't use my HP Deskjet F4580 wireless printer with it.
The printer is not connected to the AirPort Extreme's USB port. It is placed in another room, and I'd like to use it (the printer) wirelessly (not connected to the USB port os the AirPort Extreme), as I used to. There is no place for the printer close the AirPort Extreme. It worked just fine with my previous wireless router (Linksys WRT54G). I'm very disappointed with the AirPort Extreme Base Station because of that!...
Can you help me? Please?!
Thanks Folks!

This must be a tough one, no suggestions at all.
