Help with Air Print!

What exactly is air print ? I just got a new printer and my goal is to be able to print from my phone but when I try it says: "no air printers found." I have a Brother Printer/Copier/Scanner. It is not running on wifi...it is connected to my MAC via USB. Is there a way to print from my phone?
Also, what is air drop?

AirPrint is done over Wi-Fi. That's why.

Help with Air Print and my ipad 2.

I have a Kodak ESP C310 printer that is Air Print enabled. I can print from my Mac Book Pro, but not from my iPad or iPhone. Anyone have any ideas? All are on the same wifi network.

There aren't any Kodak printers listed on this page as being AirPrint enabled - where did you see that it is AirPrint enabled ?
You could see if Kodak have their own app in the store that supports that model, or there are a number of third-party printer apps such as PrintCentral Pro and Print n Share which might work with it

Help with ordering prints

Can anyone help with ordering prints for Shutterfly? I keep getting to step 4 (payment type) and then it just goes to blank page and nothing happens.

Thanks for your help, I am new to all of this. I think it was my edited pics that were the problem, they were to big of files, I had to go and save them as a new file as a jpeg and then went to shutterfly and downloaded from there. I never could get it to work from Photoshop Elem.

Looks like some problem! Just try the following steps. They worked for me: 1. Go to shutterfly website (www.shutterfly.com) and log into your account.2. In My Account Section> Billing Information, add your Credit Card details and Save.3. Logout from your account and open Photoshop Elements application to order prints.4. Now,on step4 (payment type),your Credit Card details will appear magically Let me know if this solution works for you. It can be of some help to other members too.

Need help with duplicate print jobs over network that I can't cancel

I have the Photosmart Premium All-in-One on my home network. My kids who each have laptop running Windows 7 and are connected via wireless to the printer via a DLINK DIR-655.
They hit the print button too many times and it keeps printing over and over again.
Is there a way to get the printer to stop printing these duplicates. I tried turning off/on but they just keep printing.
We're wasting paper/ink and I need help with a solution.
Please let me know. Thanks.
Angelo

There should be a button with a red 'X' on it on the front of the printer. This is the print cancel button.

Help with my printing nightmare!

Hello, I added an HP desject 3620 to my MB, but when I go to system preferences, then go to set up a printer, my printer shows there, but when I press + to add the printer , it doesn't show in the next window, so I can't add it. Any advices to that should help me a lot because I need to start using the printer. Thabk you all for your help.

Which application you use for print that material?
And is that the only application or the whole printing instruction failed?
Try to create text document using text edit
Finder > Application > Text Edit, and try to print that file and see how it goes. That is my shortcut to perform the Print test page similar instruction like on pc side.
If the file print properly, than that particular program is not sets properly with your printer.

Help with Java Printing-Custom paper sizes

Hi,
I'm trying to print documents with custom paper sizes out of java.
I can print fine when I don't try to set the MediaSize to a custom size or when I use already named constants like: "MediaSizeName.JIS_B4"
The error message I get is this:
java.lang.ClassCastException
     at javax.print.attribute.AttributeSetUtilities.verifyAttributeValue(Unknown Source)
     at javax.print.attribute.HashAttributeSet.add(Unknown Source)
     at hello.Printy.printDocument(Printy.java:103)
     at hello.Printy.main(Printy.java:135)
The offending line(103) looks like this:
pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH ));The function that its from looks like this:
public void printDocument()
try
          System.out.println("input file name is");
     System.out.println(inputFileName);
PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
PrintService printService[] = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor, pras);
PrintService defaultService = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
PrintService printPrintService = null;
// didn't work pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH) );
PrintService service = ServiceUI.printDialog(null, 200, 200,printService, defaultService, flavor, pras);
if (service != null)
     System.out.println("There is a service aunty-may!!");
DocPrintJob job = service.createPrintJob();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(getInputFileName());
DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
//pras.add(new MediaSize((float)3.25, (float)4.75, Size2DSyntax.INCH ) );
// - works
//pras.add(MediaSizeName.JIS_B4);
pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH ));
//pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH) );
     System.out.println("Doc has been set to custom size");
Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, null);
job.print(doc, pras);
     System.out.println("any doc for you?");
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to java but I've programmed a bunch in c++.

Hmm ... no real help, but I found this note in the API:
MediaSize is not yet used to specify media. Its current role is as a mapping for named
media (see MediaSizeName). Clients can use the mapping method
MediaSize.getMediaSizeForName(MediaSizeName) to find the physical dimensions of
the MediaSizeName instances enumerated in this API. This is useful for clients which
need this information to format & paginate printing.

HELP with WiFi Printing on my Mac Book 10.8.4

Need help with hp printer/airport

until yesterday, my ibook printed to my hp 5250 on the airport network. i came back from a trip, and although the internet connection works fine, i can no longer print. i can see the printer (listed as a bonjour printer), but all jobs are stopped. tried the usual - shut everything down and restarted;disconnected and reconnected printer and airport; deleted printer from "print and fax" in system preferences and then added it back in. nothing. i have things in such a twist that i can't print from the printer even when connected directly (the printer DOES work when connected directly to another mac). i can also see another hp printer connected to the network, but cannot add it as a printer - it just spins forever. please help - could i have updated something from apple that is in conflict with my printer working? it is the only thing i can think of. thanks in advance!

I have the same problem.

Need help with HP printer installation.

Trying to install drivers for an HP OfficeJet 6500 e710n on two machines, an iMac and a MacBook Air, both running OS X 10.7. The printer is a networked printer that I have tried adding to both machines as an IP printer and as a USB printer. With either method the printer is automatically discovered and the drivers are downloaded. After the drivers are installed the process stalls at "Configuring the device..." I have waited at this point for over half an hour with no progress before choosing cancel. I have also downloaded and run the installer from HP with the same results. The only way that I have been able to connect with this printer is by manually configuring an IP printer with the generic PCL drivers. This allows me to print but only in low-res black and white. Any suggestions?

If you force restart the computer on the freeze up, or force quit the printer adding window, does the printer appear in the print and scan system preference? In other words, did the printer successfully install? (is it possible that the setup part of the install failed, but the actual install worked?)
If so, you might be able to set the configurations yourself.
Open up the print and scan system preference. Double click on the printer.
When the printer queue window opens up, you should be able to click on the printer setup button.
Go through all the tabs and set things up the way you like.

Which kind of color printer with air print to buy?

I desperately need a new printer. We simply need one for printing out lots of homework stuff and occasionally a color photograph. Should I get a laser or inkjet? Price doesn't concern me as we'd love to get a quality piece. Any suggestions? Also, we want to have the Air Print capaiblity.

Too many to mention, go to your reseller of printers and then decide for yourself which one has the features you need. As a general rule inkjet prints much better photos than laser.

Please help with wireless printing

I am running a wireless network in the house and having trouble printing. The printer (Canon MP800) is connected via USB to my Windows XP desktop. The desktop is connected via Ethernet to a 2Wire DSL modem that broadcasts the wireless signal to my Powerbook G4 running OSX (10.4.10). I can’t get the powerbook to print, though.
I have followed the instructions at http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3015.html up to the point where it says:
“Select the printer but do not click Add as you need to change the Printer Model.”
“Under Printer Model select HP.”
I assume that since I am using a Canon that I should look for Canon instead of HP. The only options I get are
Generic
Other
Apple
ESP
“Generic” is a selection all by itself
“Other” opens up a finder dialog box that allows me to choose a file on my harddrive, but I have no idea where to go.
“Apple” opens a pulldown menu that allows me to select from a list of Apple printers.
“ESP” opens a pulldown menu that allows me to select from a list of other printers. This list includes Epson, HP, etc. but does not include any Canon printers.
I selected the “Generic” option. When I try to print from the powerbook, I have noticed that the printer queue on my Windows XP desktop shows a document entitled “Remote Downlevel Document.” The printer queue spools up with this document, it appears to go through the cycle and then disappear (as a normal print document does), but nothing happens on the printer.
The desktop will print normally. The powerbook will print normally when I connect the printer to it via the USB cable but another printer is created in the Printer List. This printer is named MP800 and is kind: Canon MP800 whereas the first attempt (wirelessly) names it Canon MP8 and is kind: Generic Postscript Printer.
In troubleshooting I have attempted to remove and reload the printer from both the powerbook and the desktop independently to no avail. I have even temporarily removed the firewall (Norton 360) from the desktop to make sure that wasn’t it.
I Googled the term “Remote Downlevel Document” and discovered that it was associated with a virus that affects print servers. I updated my Norton anti-virus and did a full system scan which came up clean. Some of the Google results also suggested that there might be clutter in one of the printer folders in Windows. I should remove any .tmp files I find there, but when I followed the path, there were no such files in that folder.
I apologize for the length but I wanted to make sure I had a full and accurate account in case someone might be able to point me in the next appropriate direction. Thanks for whatever advice you can offer.
I am cross posting this question on the macbookpro yahoo group, the applemac yahoo group and the apple discussion page.

still looking for some help on this intriguing matter... if anyone can help out, i'd really appreciate it! thanks.
edited original post:
I have a Samsung ML-1710 printer which we use with both an iMac and an iBook. When the iMac needs the printer, we connect the printer's USB cable to the iMac. When the iBook needs the printer, we connect the printer's USB cable to the Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS).
Both the computers use the AEBS - the iMac is connected via ethernet (DSL modem) and the iBook connects to the AEBS wireless network.
The small annoyance of having to change the USB cable aside, there is a bigger problem. After every time the printer is used by the iMac, printing does not go through on the iBook. The only solution I've found is to restart the AEBS (through AirPort Admin Utility). As this interrupts the wireless network, it is a major annoyance.
I do not want to spend $ on an Airport card for the iMac at this point...
Is there any way to correct this? Thanks in advance for your help.

Help with HP printer all-in-one C4380

hi,
Can anyone help me. My printer keeps saying that there is a paper jam. There isnt any paper in the printer. I can't get it to work.
Many thanks,

On the printer, press the Wireless button and then select the option to restore network defaults from the main menu. Now run the downloaded driver, then click on Reconfigure Network Settings, or Add A Device, and just follow the instructions to reconnect it to your new network.

Setup your document at 8.5 X 11 and then to create a booklet, use the Booklet Printing feature (File > Print Booklet).
