Help please with the HP B109 Photosmart Printer

Hello,
I've just bought a new iMac and with it I bought the HP B109 printer, on the understanding that it was wireless. I have a BT-Homehup which I use to connect to the wi-fi.
I have installed the software using the CD and set up the printer, however my problem comes when I try and print wirelessly.
The only way I can seem to be able to make it work is if I am connected to the computer via USB cable. I've read through some of the topics on here but none seem to be helping me specifically with what I need.
What do I need to make this printer print wirelessly?
Thanks!
Billy

There are a couple of problems that I see.  First, if you used the software on the CD, its not for 10.6, its for 10.5 and older only.
Let's uninstall it in this manner:
Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller
Click on Continue
Highlight your device on the left pane
Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
Click Continue and let it finish
Now, run a Software Update.
Next, your router may be getting in the way, here.  Let's re-install the printer in this way:
- Unplug the telephone line from the router
- Turn the power off on the router, wait 30 seconds, then turn the power back on.
- Select the printer in question and click the minus sign at the bottom of the list
- Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
- Install the printer with this software for 10.6
- On that screen you will find a Networking Tab, then on the left Wireless, 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). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address).  NEED HELP HERE?
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Leave the gateway and DNS blank
- Finally, plug in the phone line, reboot the router and test.

  • Help please with the 6110Nav

    Everytime I start up the navigator function on my 6110, it asks for 'Last Devices Used', which list all of my devices paired with the bluetooth.
    To continue then I have to press cancel. Does anyone know how to get rid of this feature so I don't have to cancel it everytime?

    The only way I found you can fix this problem is to disable Bluetooth in POSITION section of SETTINGS.

    Hi dog4life
    Unfortunately there is always a chance that updating using Nokia Software Updater will fail necessitating taking your device to a Nokia Care Point. On the Online Software Update Attempt History it has a lovely way of recording this event as "Failed update attempt - User aborted software update from the recovery dialog(92)". Whereas there are usually no problems if using software as a clean installation on PC, in a number of situations there are remnants of previous events left in registry which can conspire to cause problems.

  • Help please with the 3120 classic

    I'm a new user to this phone and have recently purchased a memory card.  I have inserted the memory card but am unable to access it.  I have looked everywhere to find out how I can access it as well as how to move photos from the phone's memory to the memory card.
    If you could help it would be greatly appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yup the card was faulty as it wasn't readable from the salesperson's phone either.  I suggest that if anyone else incurs this problem to take it back straight away from the store they purchased from as you will be able to get a replacement at no cost - do make sure that they check the new memory card first just in case it's another faulty one.
    Thank you for all your help

  • Please help me with the installation process.

    i have got free norton antivirus activation keybwith the pirchase of hp 16 gb pendrive .
    please help me with the installation process.

    Hey @10p,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you need assistance with the installation of Norton Antivirus that you received with the purchase of an HP 16gb Pendrive. Did you get the Pendrive with a computer or just purchase the Pendrive on its own?
    Once I know if the Pendrive came with the purchase of a computer I will be able to point you in the right direction for support. Good luck!

    Assuming your rig can support virtual machines, you can use Hyper-V and run another OS there.
    Better practice however is to use a dedicated machine and use remote desktop to the server.

    How to change a prospect status to customer in BP,when the prospect turns out to be a potential customer?Please help me with the details.
    Moderation: Kindly search before you post

    Dear Ramesh,
    Using Account life cycle we can record the different stages of a BP.
    But at any point of time we can hold one Stage at Business partner.and once we change status Prospect ro Customer. We can't able to see Prospect Status in that BP.
    Ex -
    Stage A- Potentail
    Stage B- Prospect
    Stage C- Customer
    with the help of UI configuration we can define.
    Need your comment,
    Thx
