Is there any way to print directly to a wireless printer without a wireless network?

My daughter is in the dorms at a university that doesn't allow individual wireless networks and I am trying to figure out if I can print directly from her MacBook Pro to the HP Photosmart Premier C310A. Can anyone help?

I am currently using a USB connection, but that keeps me tethered to the printer. Which is something I would like to avoid. I was looking at creating an ad hoc network with the MacBook, but I don't know Apple products well enough.
Is there a way to wirelessly print to the printer without an internet connection? Will an ad hoc network work? Can an ad hoc network even be done with a MacBook?

How can I use a wireless printer and the internet at the same time?

Hi there, I just installed a wireless printer but to use it I have to click on the Airport icon and select the printer in the 'devices' list. This deselects my connection to my wireless modem. Is there any way I can print and look at the internet at the same time? This does not seem right to me, I print a lot of info from the net and don't want to spend time selecting and waiting for connection back and forth all the time.

I have a Linksys WAG54G2 wireless G router. This router has a Wireless Protected Setup button which I understood would initiate a search for wireless devices and aid setup but it seems to do nothing. I made the mistake of tryig to use the linksys installation disk to access a setup wizard and that just reset my entire network back to factory settings and it took me 4 hours to reconfig my system. Won't be touching that again. It all seems odd, the printer is compatible with the router as far as I can see but I don't know how to get the router to recognise the printer.

Can a printer be set up on a iPad without the use of a separate computer? I want to get rid of my laptop and just use. IPad...

Can a printer be set up on a iPad without the use of a computer? I won't to discard mt laptop and only use the iPad. I ordered a hp3050a which meets the spec....but it requires that the cd be used for see . this is fine for the initial set up but how do I fix or reconfigure if I do not have a computer?

All you need to do is make sure it's a wifi configured print and connect the print and ipad over the same wifi network. Also make sure the printer is Airplay Capable.

Can you print from an ipad to a wireless printer if the printer is not connected to the internet?

I am purchasing an iPad for my mother; she lives in a farm with no possibility of high speed internet, however, Verizon does have good cell phone coverage there.
So here is my question: she will have an iPad with 3g internet access. I want her to be able to print to a wireless printer; however, the printer that I buy will not be hooked up to any computer or internet...
1) can a wireless printer be discovered on the ipad without any additional hardware?
2) will i need to purchase a router and hook this router up to the printer to send out the wireless printer's signal?
someone please help. her ipad won't be much good if she can't print docs and photos.
thanks in advance...

It sounds like her situation is like mine at school--I find what I want with my Internet capable network, then switch to my ad hoc network for printing, so make sure she's comfortable going into settings and turning WiFi on and selecting a network.
And make sure you allow yourself time for the initial printer setup--and do that somewhere where you have Internet access for the firmware updates and test the printer and then do the ad hoc setup at her home.
(You can also use an Airport Express to set up local network and just connect to the Internet (and ignore the warning light). I played around with this and it's a much more powerful network but overkill for what most people need.)
The ad hoc network just requires a name and a WEP password. Make sure you write down the password and the network name in case she has to join the network again.
I actually found the Amazon reviews for my printer very helpful in terms of explaining the set-up process.

What is the best printer for wireless printing with the iPhone?

What is the best printer for wireless printing witth the iPhone?

Roaminggnome has the list......pick on of those TERRIBLE printers and go for it....
I hope Apple see fit to broaden this list, because, having thrown away several of those brands in my life, I now have a network compatble BROTHER printer that's awesome,
"There's an app for that," ie the BROTHER, but you can only print pictures and soforth.
Apple, step up, open up the list of printers we can use!

HT1766 Is there way of accessing your back up data without the use of an i-phone?

Is there a way of accessing your back up data from the computor without the use of an i-phone?

If it wasnt activated prior icloud wont help now. Did you ever use the save and print option to "send it itunes"? I did that all the time prior to icloud to back up my docs. Then you can "copy from itunes" in the new document dialog.
I still recommend doing the export to iTunes to create a local back up copy on ocassion.
For future reference, To activate icloud for documents, go into the main settings app, tap icloud, then documents and data, and turn it on. Then go to the app (maybe numbers) further down the main settings list, tap it and turn on "use icloud".

Is there any way to connect an iPhone to an external hard drive without the use of a computer?

Hello All,
I am planning to travel to Central America, and I want to take pictures with my iPhone. I only have 8 GB memory, so I wanted to take my 1 TB WD Mac External Hard Drive with me on the trip. Is there any way I can connect my iPhone directly to the external hard drive, without the use of a computer? Thanks in advance!

The external hard drive has only one input port which is usb, so you can only use usb here. Also try considering online storage.

When send print, queue says printer not connected.
Hence question on how to "reconnect"

When I populate a form and send to my printer, the form prints without the info I entered

When I populate a form and send to my printer, the form prints without the info I entered. How do I fix this?

Epson Printer Drivers v2.19 for OS X
If you use Software Update, probably got installed. If you are like me, you clone your system before any update or changes, in case something breaks.
Windows you don't or haven't heard of? VM = virtual machine, ie a guest OS running under Mac OS (or running natively on its own partition, seeing sometimes there is software that is essential but only needed for business or once in a while). Runs just like another app (and uses an app to control the guest OS).

I used Altavista and found one example, how does it look?
DECLARE
/* there is no built array in oracle, you must declare
your own */
TYPE Numarray IS TABLE OF NUMBER INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
/* the array of numbers - using assoc array because I can start
with zero like traditional arrays */
Nums Numarray;
n NUMBER := 0;
Temp NUMBER;
BEGIN
/* load up the array, put 20 random values in the array,
in array indicies 0 to 19 */
FOR i IN 0 .. 19
   LOOP
    Nums(i) := Round(Dbms_Random.Value(1, 1000));
END LOOP;
/* get the array size */
n := Nums.Count();
/* display the unsorted values - loop through the whole array and
print out the values */
Dbms_Output.Put_Line('unsorted:');
FOR i IN Nums.First .. Nums.Last LOOP
    Dbms_Output.Put_Line(Nums(i));
END LOOP;
/* bubble sort - using two loops, compare each value with the one
after it
if the one after the current one is smaller , then
switch their locations in the array, this is just like standard
bubble sorts
in other languages. The only real diff is the syntax.
FOR i IN 0 .. n - 1 LOOP
    FOR j IN 0 .. n - (i + 1) - 1 LOOP
      IF (Nums(j) > Nums(j + 1)) THEN
        Temp := Nums(j);
        Nums(j) := Nums(j + 1);
        Nums(j + 1) := Temp;
      END IF;
    END LOOP;
END LOOP;
/* display the values sorted */
Dbms_Output.Put_Line('sorted');
FOR i IN Nums.First .. Nums.Last LOOP
    Dbms_Output.Put_Line(Chr(9) || Nums(i));
END LOOP;
END;

*/In the code the first comment is wrong actually i think, that one:
"there is no built array in oracle, you must declare your own"
I remember there were some system collection-types, if i'm not mixing with something, i remember there was some kind of such but they were un-documented ones, so we can juridically say that the comment in the code was still correct.

Is it possible to connect HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series Wireless printer without USB cable?

my mom recently bought me the HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series so i have an at home printer for school work. but when we bought it we did not know there was a certain USB that had to connect to the printer. so we bought the wrong one. now i have a project due and i cannot print. we have a small USB that fits it but its hard to connect it to the computer and printer because its so small. so if we can have it sent to the printer without the USB that would be perfect!

Hi,
No, in many cases printers won't come with USB cables. You need a cable which is similar to the following one:

HT201250 Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive? I'm trying to restore lost photo files and I see them listed in Time Machine (without use of an external drive), but when I try to restore I get a error code 36.

Can I restore photo files from Time Machine without the use of an external drive? While I was transferring photos back and forth from a thumb drive something went haywire and my IPhoto was wiped clean! When I click on Time Machine I see all the dated pages (without an external storage drive connected), go back to a date where all my photo files are there, click "restore", and I get the message: "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in file cant be read or written (error code - 36)"

Thanks so much Terence. I tried some of the fixes from that page, but then discovered the suggestion to compress the Time Machine Back up of the original library and transfer it as a zip back to my computer as detailed here:

That worked like a charm. I really appreciate it.
