Epson network-ready, all-in-one printer...

I'm thinking of purchasing a printer, but there is so many out there! I hear Epson prints out the best, and that's what I used at school in the Media Arts department. Can I just purchase any all-in-one printer and would it be able to work wirelessly through my AirPort Base Station? I've visited the Epson website, and non specify if it's network ready. Or is there a compatibility list of printers that work wirelessly?

Can't say specifically about Epson, but I have an HP AIO 6180 that works fine wirelessly (for both Mac and Windows - including fax and scan functionality.) I also have a Canon IP4000R (just a normal printer) that has been working wirelessly for a while just fine. If the printer spec doesn't say it supports 802.11b/g then it doesn't have wireless capability (although some do have Bluetooth.) You should also make sure that it has drivers/software for the OS you want - one of the reasons I went for the HP was because it had support for both Mac and Windows. If this doesn't work for you then you could look at getting a wireless print server and connect a non-wireless printer to it - I don't have any experience of this configuration so I don't know what the driver/software issues might be.

My G4 w Tiger OS X won't connect to an Epson Artisan 810 All-In-One Printer

My G4 with Tiger connected via USB 1.1 to an Epson Artisan 810 Combination Copier, Printer, Scanner, and Fax won't add to the Printer List of my G4 with OSX 10.4.11. The error message is "An error occurred while trying to add the selected printer. Error: -9672 and has Epson Preferred Support stumped. Three individual techs each one building on previous attempts tracked by reference numbers end up with the same error -9672. The following are rough outlines of attempts to add the Artisan 810 to the other (hp) Inkjet 5550 printer on the Printer List for the G4.
1. Trash the com.apple.printer.plists, repair permissions, and install Printer Driver v6.61 (epson13216.dmg). Load Printer SetUp Utility, click on + (add) to show the Artisan 810 on the list to add, click on add, only to get error -9672.
2. Install instead the Drivers and Utilities Combo Package for the printer (epson13613.dmg). Same result: error -9672.
3. Trash Epson plug-ins in Library> Printer> Epson as well as Epsondriver.pkg in Receipts. Then install Printer Driver v6.61 again. No luck.
The last support tech suggested going to Apple (the Genius Bar) for help, essentially saying "it's an Apple issue".
BTW, the device checks out in a test using the copy feature. Beautiful!
Any ideas would be most welcome.
Thanks.

Hello Raymon,
I noticed you have USB 1.1 and that a
requirement for the 810 is High-Speed
USB.
PC Connection Hi-Speed USB, Ethernet 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, USB host

If you have a 10/100 Ethernet connector laying around you
can try to connect it that way.
Good Luck,

Scanning from all-in-one printer to Elements

I have a Dell 4000 desktop computer, running Windows 7, 32-bit version, an Epson Stylus SX515W all in one printer/scanner etc, and Photoshop Elements 6. I am told that I cannot scan from my Epson scanner to Elements 6, and that I will need Photoshop Elements 10 to do this.
1. Is this correct?
2. If so, do I have to buy a full version of Elements 10, or can I buy an upgrade?
3. If only an upgrade is needed, what is it called, what will it cost and where can I download it from?
4. If I have to buy the full version of Elements 10, will I need any other software to get it to scan images from my Epson Stylus SX515W?
5. Where do I have to look to find your reply?
Best wishes

Hi Nick,
First of all I would like to inform that PSE 6 is not tested on Win 7 and is very old version.
In order to scan from PSE, you will need Twain plugin which is required to scan from within Adobe Applications.
To check if you already have twain or not, follow this :
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\Import-Export\
If you find a file called "Twain", then you should be able to scan, if not then you have to download Twain from here : http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=4688&fileID=4376
Save the file, unzip it and then follow these steps :
Close PSE 6.
After that , navigate to PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US\PSCS5OptionalPlugins_Win_en_US\Optional Plug-Ins\Win32, here you will find Twain_32.8BA file
Copy this file and then paste under : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 6.0\Plug-Ins\Import-Export\
Launch PSE 6 and check if you get the option to scan under File >> Import menu
If the above solution doesnt work, then you may have to ugrade to PSE 10.
The price for upgrade is $79.99 and full price is $99.99
You can purchase full and upgrade both from Adobe.com website
Thanks,
Baljeet

Hp 8600 All in one printer problem with scanning through wired network its very slow!

Hi
i have problem with scanning thru network which takes almost more than 2minutes very slow compared to scanning when printer connected locally with USB. i need some solution to fix this issue. Plz advise me what needs to be done prior to scanning?

Welcome to the community @Larrypat
I understand your printer is not connecting wireless and only connecting USB. I have some questions and ideas for you that should help. Let's get to it!
Could you please remove the USB cable, run the Print and Scan Doctor again and send me a screen shot of the results from running the diagnostic tool?
Also let me know which model from the C7200 series you have:
HP Photosmart C7250 All-in-One Printer
HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Printer
HP Photosmart C7288 All-in-One Printer
Try power cycling the network devices:
Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer. Run the Print and Scan Doctor afterwards and try printing.
Let me know how it goes and the results

Airport Extreme connects to Epson all in one printer, scanner doesn't work

I got a new Airport Extreme to connect my all-in-one printer, copier, scanner Epson CX8400. Connecting the printer feature to my MacBook Pro and my HP laptop was very easy, however can't get the scanning feature to work. Has anyone had this same issue? Do you know how to solve it other than plugging the USB cable directly to the computer? thanks!

Hi Carlos9912,
Does the Epson CX8400 support scanning over WiFi/Bonjour? I know my two HP Photosmart printers and my Epson I have do not support scanning over WiFi/Bonjour, despite the fact that they support printing functionality.

HP 3520 All-in-One Printer Falls Out of Wireless Network Periodicially

We have an ongoing problem with our HP 3520 All-in-One Printer. We set it up for wireless printing and it works....for a while. Periodically, we find that it falls off the wireless network and will not print except when plugged into the USB cable. The problem is that my husband has an Ipad Air as his main device which he cannot plug into the printer and needs to have wireless working...and the main reason we bought this printer was to have wireless capability. We *think* that it may be falling off the network when we have a brief power outage or Internet outage, which happens occassionally for a short time. Also, on my laptop, although the wireless set-up to this printer has worked in the past, now I see that I can either connect my laptop to the Internet network OR the printer, but not both at the same time. How strange is that?
I have printed out the Wireless Network Test Results AND the HP Network Configuration Page, in case that information can be useful as we attempt to troubleshoot this problem.
Note that the printer is no longer under warranty.
I have reviewed numerous HP product support pages and feel as if I am running in circles. The help information is confusing to us and we have spent so many hours trying to troubleshoot this issue that my husband has completely given up on that printer and I am doing my best to try to save it since it is only about a year old.
We appreciate any help you can give us to remedy this ongoing problem.

Hello there PSCo, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I saw your post about your Deskjet 3520 dropping the network connection. It very well could happen if the power goes out or Internet disconnects. I have found a troubleshooting guide that is geared to help repair the wireless connection disconnecting. It will go further into detail about the causes and things to do to help.
I hope the steps work for you!

HP C7200 All-in-One printer will not print through the Wifi network

I have used the HP printing and scanning Doctor but none of the proposed solutions have solved the problem. The blue light for wirelwss 802.11g service is on and connected to the same Wifi address as my laptop is using now. My Dell laptop is running Windows 7 and the printer works if I use the USB connection instead of the Wifi. Any suggestions?

I am not able to connect with my Epson all in one printer

I am having Epson All in one printer which is being installed on my HP notebook. However, i am not able to print from this notebood as it says communication port is not available. I am able to scan, but can't able to print. My operating system is Windows 7 home edition. Please help me to resolve the issue.

Deskjet 3520e all in one printer network problems

Hi All.
I have a brain teaser for the technical types out there hoping someone can shed some light on a weird sort of problem.
History: All has been fine with my g6 Pavillion latop 64bit W8 and 3520e all in one printer and working as always very well.
Oct 16th 2014 My broadband service went down and after many communictions with ISP eventualy received (Nov 4th) and installed a new "super hub modem".
OK so far, Managed to connect laptop via wireless router and connect to internet etc., however . . . I cannot get my printer to network as before, I can use it via USB port but if I try to network it, The Cyan ink cartridge reports as being broken or damaged even though 3/4 full and will not allow printing, but when connect via USB port the Cyan ink cartridge registers normal and will print as expected.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
If I go down the route of uninstalling and reinstallin the Printer software is there a set order in which to do so?
In the list of programs these four are shown. .
HP Deskjet 3520 series Basic Device Software
HP Deskjet 3520 series Help
HP Deskjet 3520 series Product Improvement Study
HP Deskjet 3520 series Setup Guide.
I would like very much to get back to network printing if at all possible.
The router IP address is 192.168.1.3
The printer IP address is 192.168.0.1
I have been led to believe that as the addresses are so close this shouldnt be the cause.
I must add that in the past I have had occasional printer software problems which I was unable to resolve without help from the technical centre and I would prefer not to restart the installation if at all possible.
Your comments would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Un1corn.

Hi @Un1corn
What exactly happens when you try to convert from USB to Wireless and configure the printer to the Virgin Media Super Hub? Do you get an error message of some sort?
Maybe there is a firewall on the Super Hub. Do you have the model number for this device? I can look up some information to see what could be casing the issue.
In the meantime, running the Print and Scan Doctor might help. The HP Print and Scan Doctor is a free utility (tool) that helps to quickly resolve common printing, scanning and connectivity issues including but not limited to:
Connectivity:
USB: Verifies that the USB connection from your computer to the HP product is working correctly.
Network: Verifies that the network connection between your computer and your network is working correctly.
Device Status Test: Checks for device errors such as out of paper, paper jams, carriage stalls, and paper feed issues, and then provides instructions for fixing the error.
Driver Check: Checks for missing or corrupt driver files.
Device Manager: Checks for problems in Device Manager that would prevent printing.
Device Online: Checks if the product has been paused or set to offline, and then sets the status back to online if necessary.
Print Queue: Checks for and clears pending print jobs in the print queue (a log of print jobs waiting to print).
Port Match: Checks the port settings for the HP product.
Device Conflicts: Checks for conflicts with other drivers, such as other printer brands.
Ink Issues: Checks the cartridges and ink levels for issues that affect print quality.
Print Settings: Checks and adjusts the print quality settings.
Test Print: Prints a test page for print quality evaluation, and provides options for cleaning and aligning the printhead if necessary.
Scan Tests: Checks the scan mechanism, drivers, and registry entries.
Source:Try the HP Print and Scan Doctor for Windows
Click here to download and run the Print and Scan Doctor> www.hp.com/go/tools
If that does not resolve the issue, post back and let me know if there are any symbols other than green check marks and what they are next to of course. The wrench is not always easy to spot as the wrench and the check mart are in the green circle.
If you see only green check marks (), the tool did not find any problems.
If you see green wrenches (), the utility identified an issue and corrected it automatically.
If you see yellow exclamation points (), the test failed and required user action, but the step was skipped.
If you see a red X (), follow the on-screen instructions to resolve the issue.
I look forward to hearing back from you.

Problem staying connected to my Wireless Network with my HPPhotosmart e-All-in-One Printer - D110a

I just bought a new HP wireless printer replacing my old HP wireless printer which the wireless part worked fine, but the printing died.
New printer HPPhotosmart e-All-in-One Printer - D110a. I have installed and re-installed the software and drivers but can't get my printer to stay connected to my laptop. I have a Linksys "WRT54GL router but have the printer set with a static IP address. When I run tests on the computer and printer everything says it is fine. But every 30 seconds or so.. my printer goes offline on my computer and is especially noticeable when I am using the HP Solution center because it will keep blinking in the windows bar. I have talked to 4 technicians but no one can figure out what the problem is. They keep saying that it is on my end, but the old printer which was also an HP (Wireless 6150) never had any problems and I have not changed anything in my routing. Is anyone else having this kind of problem and has found a successful solution? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My computer is running Windows XP SP3
Currently my router has WEP encryption, but I tried them all just to see if that had anything to do with it. (WEP works best for me since I have some devices which can only use WEP to communicate).
Thanks.

Let's set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). Yours is 192.18.1.100 to .149. Let's use 192.168.1.200 for your printer.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway and first DNS. Leave the second one blank.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

How do I set up my HP psc2175xi all in one printer for wireless printing or network printing?

How do I set up my HP psc2175xi all in one printer for wireless printing or network printing?
I am changing the set up of my home computer to add another computer.
I would like to go wireless from my computers to the hub and wired from the hub to my
printer. I do not think this printer can do that since it does not have the ports to connect to a router hub, I think.
I am rather new to this way of setting up, so any help would be nice.

You could get a wireless router that supports USB printers, but these only support printing, not scanning. You could just go buy a new wireless printer since your printer is pretty old, anyway.

HP Deskjet 3520 e-All in one printer trouble with scanning network, connection and very slow print

Dear all
I bought two days ago HP Deskjet 3520 e-All-in one printer serie, but i have some really bad issues with the scanner! I have searched on the internet and i couldn’t find anything to solve the problem.
I have installed the printer according to the book of the printer, so everything did go well(i think), except that i can’t connect the scan to my computer, a Mac OS X (i am connected with the printer). I get directed to the website where i can connect the scanner, but every time i try to connect it with wi-fi, i get two notification, one from my computer (from HP Itility (Dutch) program) that the connection is off and second from the website that i have to make sure that i’m connected with internet (which i am) and to check the IP address if it is the same with my computer (which is the same).
Obesely something did go wrong, but i can’t find the problem.
Beside when its copy or prints a document (no matter how many pages) it’s very slow. It takes 10 -15 minutes till the printer starts. Has it something to do with the problem i’ve got with the scanner or is the printer always so slow? Because the very first time, when i installed the printer, it printed very fast.
By the way i also print the test-results to check if there is a problem, but according to test-results there are no problems at all.
I hope that someone recognize this problem and can help me to solve it.
Regards,
Esra
