Help me enable a wireless print network!

How can I connect my (2007)airport extreme to Netgear N300 router that is connected to modem? I want to do this bc my cannon MP460 printer will then print wirelessly.  I had this setup at my house but recently moved in my parents duplex and want to have my own network.

Connect an Ethernet cable from a LAN <--> port on the Netgear router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme and configure the Extreme to "create a wireless network".

  • Brand new Mac user, needs help getting Mac onto Wireless Print Server

    Ladies & Gents,
    After much struggle with PCs in the last two weeks I finally broke down and bought a MacBook. I'm very happy with it, but I am having issues getting hooked into my office's wireless printing network.
    The printer is an HP Color Laserjet 3600n and we're set up with a D-Link DPR 1260 router. I've tried just about everything I know, and even our much-more-qualified-than-I resident Mac user is unsure how to make this work.
    I will continue to search the forum, but I would appreciate any help. I should be off and on throughout most of the day. Thanks!

  • How To Disable A Wireless Printer Network Setting (SSID) On A HP L7700

    How To Disable A Wireless Printer Network Setting (SSID) On A HP L7700  Previousley Set Up

    Hello @flamek2,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand that you are trying to disable the wireless settings on your Officejet pro L7700 series printer.
    I would like to help.
    To erase the printers network information, go into the Setup menu.
    Then go into the Network menu.
    Select restore network defaults.
    If you want to disable wireless altogether, then go into setup and choose network.
    Select wireless radio, and turn it off.
    Hope this helps you.
    If you need any additional assistance please let me know.

  • Wireless printer network

    My cell phone and tablet sometimes lock onto the wireless printer network instead of the Internet wireless network in my home. This occurs randomly and it has nothing to do with printing. I have to manually chose the correct network. Any suggestions to configure the printer so the phone doesn't pick that nerwork automatically? The phone is a LG G3 from Verizon.

    You need to disable Wireless Direct in the printer.

  • Wireless Printing/Network Issues

    Here is our dillemma.   We have an iMac running on OS 10.6.8, a Lexmark X4650 wireless printer and a PC.  The iMac, PC and work computers and ipads as well as the printer all connect to our network.  I can print from the PC but I can't from the iMac.  I have reset the printers on the iMac.  I have unplugged and plugged back in the modem and router. I have pinged the printer from the iMac, and have found all of the ip addresses, on all devices the first three sets of numbers are all the same, and the last 3 digits are different on each device (printer, pc, imac).  When trying to print from the mac, I get the "unable to connect to printer", "device is busy", or "printer is off line". 
    Any help of information on solutions would be grateful.
    Thanks!

  • Wireless printing - network host is busy/unreachable?

    Hi everyone,
    We installed a wireless (Lexmark X9350) network printer on our Airport network (behind ADSL + router with DHCP functions enabled).
    The printer software installation finished successfully but gave a warning that the printer had not been added to the printer list and could/should be added manually. After having done this, wireless printing to the X9350 doesn't seem to be working: error: Network host is busy, unreachable, .... The same occurs on 10.4 (Tiger) and 10.3.
    However, wireless printing from 2 PCs (WindowsXP) on the same wireless network works ok. Printing test page with USB cable attached to the Mac seems to be working as well. Any tips how we can get this wireless printing working for the Macs?
    Thanks,
    Guy

    I meant specifically, after clicking ADD and then clicking More Printers, is there a Lexmark proprietary protocol choice that you used - something like "Lexmark network inkjet?" That will be the only way to add the printer - not IP printing.

  • Printing help.  My Epson wireless printer won't print.  Airport seems OK.  I get the following message.../Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Cont ents/MacOS/rastertoescpII failed.  What am I missing?

    I can't get my Epson wireless printer to print.  All seems well.  Turned on and off.  Green lights abound.  My computer seems to see the printer.

    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    You did not tell us how you installed the printer so it's a little tough to troubleshoot. Please carefully look over Printing Overview OS X Lion for instructions on how to add a printer. Also look on Printer and scanner software for Snow Leopard & Lion to see if your printer is compatible with OS X.
    Finally PLEASE update your profile using the Profile Update link.

  • Help needed to setup wireless printing

    I have less than a month's experience of using a Mac but am really enjoying my purchase so far.
    The one issue that I have not been able to solve is printing.
    I have a HP Photosmart P1000 which I can successfully print to via USB but I have had no success when trying wirelessly using a Belkin Wireless Print Server (model F1UP0001). My PC was easy to setup using Belkin's setup disk but they omitted to add Macs to their list of operating systems!!
    I've tried following instructions given in a post on here but it didn't work
    Could anyone please offer any suggestions to find a fix?
    Thank you.
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    The driver provided by HP doesn't work for network printing, because it bypasses the CUPS system. The only comm protocol you get is what was written into the driver - USB. Install the hpijs and ESP ghostscript driver set from:
    http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
    Second issue - the windows setup software enters the server queue name during setup, but we don't have that software on OS X. You need to find the queue name in the print server docs, then enter it next to IP address in OS X Printer Setup. Common queue names are L1, lp, lpt1, etc.
    Wait - just remembered I downloaded that manual for someone elses's question. The queue name is lp1 (el-p-one). So in Printer Setup select IP printer > LPD, and enter IP address and that queue name.
    Good luck.

  • Wireless printer network w/o wireless internet?

    I got a new printer and have it wired to my iMac and want to wirelessly connect it to the Mac Pro. The printer is capable of wireless, but it asks for an SSID. Can I set this up with only my two computers without involving wireless internet? (Does my computer have an SSID, or is that exclusive to wireless ISP networks?)
    Thanks for any info!
    -Doug

    Hi
    SSID (Service Set Identifier) is the name of your network/WLAN. You don't need to have an internet connection, you just need to have a wireless network.
    You can create an ad-hoc network using your Mac, but I don't know how your printer would go connecting to that, seeing as its mainly used as a computer-to-computer network.
    You may be best to keep it connected via USB to one Mac, and use Printer Sharing (System Preferences -> Sharing) to share the printer over the network, but again, you will need a wireless (or wired for that matter) network connection for this to work.

  • Will a late '09 Imac support a wireless print network with a 16/600 laser writer laserwriter?

    I had a wireless network set up with a Quicksilver and a Macbook Pro with a 16/600 ps laserwriter with a transponder plugged  into an airport extreme. The Macbook pro would only print when the Quicksilver was on. We replaced the Quicksilver with a late '09 imac 3.6 G and 21.5" screen. We used migtation assistant. Why can't I print!
    Harold

    Appletalk support has be dropped in OS X as of Snow Leopard. However if you can get the IP address of the printer then you should be able to add it as an IP printer. Because the printer is so old I would have no idea how to get it's IP address however  you can look in the printers utilities to see if it can print a status or configuration page.

  • Need help setting up for wireless printing- remote access- by email

    When trying to set up my printer I get a box that says "Printers Code", is the "printer code" another word for hardware address or is it the access point hw address or what is it? I wish the HP people would stick to the same nomenclature in their set up!

    Hi,
    Printer code is a code for your printer which allows you to register to ePrint center. From there you can get printer email address and you can email to this email address for printer to print. Not all printers have printer code. You can read more information from the following link:

  • Wired & Wireless Printing & Networking

    I have an iMac G5 , a Powermac G5, an iMac G3 and 2 Powerbooks in my house, all connected to the internet.
    The 2 imacs are connected to a 3rd party router via ethernet, and the Powermac G5 & the laptops are connected via airport express which is connected to the 3rd party router.
    The laptops and the powermac are all on one network, and can share files, music and printers, but the 2 imacs seem to be on thier own seperate network, and can't 'see' the wireless computers. is there any way that i can get all of them onto one network and share printers,music and files between all of them? any replies appreciated, thanks. All computers are on Tiger apart from the G3 imac which is on 10.3.

    Your problem is that your computers are on two logical networks. The ones connected to the router directly are receiving their TCP/IP configuration from the router and the ones connected to the Airport Express are receiving their configuration from the Express.
    What you need to do is stop the Airport Express from acting as a DHCP server so that all computers receive their configuration from the router. To do this login to the Airport Express using the "Apple Airport Admin Utility" now disable the "Distribute IP addresses" option. Once you have done that you may need to reboot the two computers connected via Airport to ensure they receive the new TCP/IP configuration from the router.

  • Wireless printer networking

    I love the printer but lately it decides that it is going to be my network and overrides my inhouse wi fi.  Sometimes its not discoverable by my tablet. 

    Who is your internet service provider?  So you say that your printing is intermittent? it goes on and off   

  • Using the D-Link Router DIR-655 in order to set up wireless printing

    Hi, I have a newly purchased D-Link Router, DIR-655, and it had a USB port which enables NAS. However, I was wondering if I would be able to set up my printer, an HP P1005, in order to print wirelessly. I plugged in the printer's usb cable into the router and I refreshed my airport. It found a "printer server" and I connected to it. However I'm now oblivious to the next step I must take in order to set up this wireless printer network.
    Any help/advice would be awesome
    Thanks.

    That is of course possible. One hears that D-Link do not always play well with Macs, although my ADSL modem/router is fine. I connect my HP printer using Apple's Airport Express (that has a USB port) and maybe that is part of the installation of that device.
    Have you turned on the printer sharing features in System Preferences >Sharing or even the Windows Printer.
    You mention the Port number: is the firewall allowing access to that port?
