How do I connect my HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer - J410a to a wireless connection

I have a 
HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer - J410a
I am connected to a computer but would also like to connect it to my laptop wirelessly.
Can't do it.  Must be doing something wrong.  Need help thanks.

Hi @5468,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that you are wondering how to connect your HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer - J410a to a wireless connection. I am happy to look into this for you!  
According to your printer's specifications and the Setup Poster, this printer can only be connected to a computer via a USB 2.0 printer cable connection. This printer does not have wireless capabilities.
Hope this answers your question, and have a great day!

  • HP Deskjet 1050 All-in-One Printer series - J410A not printing photos

    Hi,
    It's been months since I tried to fix the photo printing of my printer and until now it's still not fixed.
    My problem is that I can't print photos via windows photo viewer. When I hit print, it shows a printer icon on my task bar and it disappears. I am using Windows 7. 
    Also, if I check on Device Settings tab of my printer properties, the photo tray is missing. See screenshot:
    I tried printing using Paint and IE9 and it printed but my problem is that the photos are too dark.
    So I have two problems here:
    1) I cannnot print via windows photo gallery and my photo tray is missing.
    2) Printing to other applications like Paint and IE9 produces very dark photos.
    This happened after I updated my driver. I tried switching back to my old driver and it printed but the photos are too dark already. When the printer was still new using the old driver, I had no problems with my photos and they look all good. I updated my driver because the time came when I cannot see my ink levels with my old driver. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers and the problems still persist.
    Please help!! I have wasted a lot of photo paper and ink by trial and error. T^T

    If you are having problems with printing photos, see if this document is of any assistance in finding the right settings:
    --Print Photos Saved On Your Computer--  
    I would like to add that I have never seen a photo tray option in the Device Settings of the Printer's Properties.  I checked all of mine and some had the duplex option here but no mention of a photo tray even if the printer had one.  But while you're in that section, you may want to change it from "Letter" to the photo size you are trying to print (4x6, 3x5 etc).
    One problem I had with your question regarding the photo tray, I didn't know this printer had a photo tray.  I will post a picture below of this printer and when you reply, let me know where exactly this photo tray is in case I am just not seeing it.
    When printing from IE9 or Paint, the images come out dark but what about an image in a Word document? Does that come out too dark as well?  Can you make a copy of a normal photo and it come out dark too?
    Answer those questions for me please and I will be happy to help.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

  • I have a hp deskjet 3050 all-in-one printer how can i setup for wireless printing my os is windows7.

    how do i setup my hp deskjet 3050 all-in-one printer for wireless printing my operating system is windows7

    Unplug the USB cable.  Now go to Start > All Programs > Hewlett-Packard > Deskjet 3050 > Add a Device.  Run the program and choose Wireless as the installation type.
    Follow the directions.  It will ask you to connect a USB cable temporarily.  Do not connect until it asks and remove it when it tells you.
    Finally, when you are done, go to Control Panel > Devices & Printers and delete the USB instance of the printer so you don't get confused when printing.

  • After upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 My HP Deskjet F4580 all in one printer no longer scans. How can we fix it?

    Hi All,
    I recently upgraded to Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks, but now my HP Deskjet F4580 All in one printer will not scan any documents either as PDF or as JPG, how can we fix this?

    I have simialr problems, after i scanned the ducuments or pictures, i can save it for only once, but the file is just black pictures with many lines through them. When i try to save it again, then it says ''An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.  Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.', which then doesn't allow me to do anything of saving the file or even just to print it out.

  • HP DeskJet 1050 ALL-IN-ONE J410 series Printer Scanner stopped working suddenly

    About a month back Scanner in my printer-scanner (DeskJet 1050 All-In-One J410 series) stopped working with a message on screen " HP Deskjet 1050 J410 series was not found". But the Printer was working fine. I have so far taken following steps with results against each -
    a) HP Print & Scan doctor (HPPSdr.exe) showed HP Twain Scan faulty.
    b) On advice from HP helpline, tried HP Deskjet Full Feature Software & Drivers (DJ1050_J410_1313.exe). It required uninstalling before installing. But uninstalling failed to happen.
    c) Finally, with HP Printer Install Wizard (hppiw.exe) help it showed that Full Feature HP Software & Drivers is now installed. For its functionality, it called for its testing on 'print test page' and 'test scan'. After this, printer shows printing jobs in queue but will not print. At present it is limited to photocopying only without printing & scanning.
    d) I am caught in a loop, because at the end of hppiw.exe message is '...if tests are not successful, HP recommends using HPPSdr.exe to diagnose and fix any problem' i.e. back to point (a) above.
    Any solution to the above problem?

    Hi there @sukuma ,
    I can see that you have a thread open with @Futoji in regards to the issue however, no response. I would suggest completing his troubleshooting recommendations and reply back to continue the troubleshooting efforts. I hope that helps you!

  • How do I change my HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 Series to draft mode

    How do I change my HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 Series to draft mode?  I have read some of the "solutions," but they don't make any sense to me.  I need simple instructions.  Thanks!

    Hi there!
    Try these steps that I have posted below. This will change the settings for all print jobs, so you will need to go back in to these settings if you wish to change the quality back to normal, best, etc.
    Source
    Once you are in the Printing Preferences window, you will see a Paper/Quality tab, click on it and you can change the Quality to Draft here.
    That should work for you! Let me know if this helps

  • HP Deskjet 3050A All-in-one printer J611 series - mavericks and wireless set up

    Hi
    I have a HP Deskjet 3040A All-in-one printer J611, I have had this printer for about 2years and everything worked perfect then I bought an Apple still all was alright but when I updated my software I got Mavericks and ever since then everything went wrong....I have updated my computer and have AirPrint now and also HP ePrint(currently). How ever the printer was not working or connecting.
    Problem 1:
    When I tried to fix the problem I uninstalled all HP drivers to reinstall - found that you have to install the apple app Done!(Airprint)
    The printer was picked up by the computer and I can scan but I can not print, I'm using the USB cable, and when I print the computer shows it is printing and the printers lights come on but nothing happens(no messages display on the printer) then the computer shows the print is done - but the printer didn't print. Scan is working fine.
    Problem 2:
    Because of constant problems with the wireless connection I wanted to reconnect it to the router - Restore default.
    But now because I don't have the HP drivers, I have no idea how to connect it and I tried both connection ways WPS is not working when I press it on the route...nothing happens and the PIN, where are you suppose to enter the pin, nothing comes up on my computer (USB connected) 
    I have read the installation pages over and over but can't figure out what is wrong, any advice would be appreciated. 
    This question was solved.

    Hi Lilly4,
    I can certainly help you get the printer on the network and working again.
    Follow the steps in this thread to put the printer on the network without using the software or the WPS button. I believe  we have success doing it this way.  
    If you continue to experience an issue after the printer is on the network, please let me know. Thanks.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer driver not installing after upgrading to Windows 7

    I have a HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer. I was working fine in Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
    Once I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit the driver is failing to install.
    I have tried all the solutions provided on the HP website but none of them worked.
    I also wrote a mail to HP support but they replied that its out of warranty hence they will not be able to help.
    If some genius can help me I will pray for him/her that all his/her wishes come true.
    Thanks you in advance.
    Imroz Baig

    I just got my HP Deskjet F2120 working in Windows 7.  Here's how:
    Insert the setup disk in your CD/DVD drive.  Choose to view the files in Explorer.  Scroll down to the file "Setup," which is identified as an application.
    Right-click the file and select "Properties." Click the "Compatibility" tab at the top of the resulting window.
    Check off "Run this program in compatability mode for:" and choose "Windows Vista" from the pop-up menu.
    ALSO check "Run this program as administrator" at the bottom of the window.
    Press "Apply," then "OK."
    Now you can double-click the "Setup" file and run the software installer.
    It will 100% work inshallah...

    Purchased less than a year ago countless problems with wireless reinstaled more times than I can think and now paper jams so off to the bin, never to buy HP products again, being disabled is hard enough but having to  going shopping for a new printer this I could do without. thank you HP.
    Brian

    I am sorry to hear that you are having that issue with the printer. If the printer is under a year old from the date of purchase, please call into HP Total care. The printer comes with a factory warranty that gives the owner free tech support on the product. Paper jams are a hardware issue. If all troubleshooting steps are done on the phone with the agent and the product is still not working. That agent who is assisting you will be able to give further options on what can be done. The number for US and Canada customers is 800-474-6836. Customers in other countries can find contact information here. I hope that this helps.

  • 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.

  • I can't get my bluetooth on my ipad to connect to my hp c5580 all in one printer bluetooth

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • HP Deskjet 2512 All-in-One Printer vs. Deskjet 1000 = Same internal mechanisms​???

    Any one know if the HP Deskjet 2512 All-in-One Printer and the Deskjet 1000 have the same internal gears and printing mechanisms ?
    The 1000 is a pure printer with no scanner, copier etc. The 2512 visually looks the same as the 1000 but does scans, etc. Just $15.00 difference in price at Walmarts.
    The HP 1000 gears grind away when I print a magnetic sheet of 8 1/2 x 11"  and will skip printing on different place on magnetic sheet.
    I was wondering if it would do me any good to go up a notch to the 2512 to print said magnetic sheets?
    Thanks in advance - Michael

    Hello michaelforsure,
    You could check out the specs for the 2512 to see the thickness of what it will successfully print.  You could compare that to the thickness of the magnetic sheets and see if it is compatible.
    Please let me know if this helps.
    Good luck!

  • My HP Deskjet 1510 All-in-One Prints Test Page But not emails or Web Pages, ect

    My Deskjet 1510 All-in-One Printer is Hooked up. All tests show a Green Arrow, It is Turned on, and Online. It will Print a TEST PAGE, but nothing else. I have Run the HP DR Support program several times to no avail. No Error Codes or Signs appear. It simply will NOT WORK other than printing a TESTPAGE or Scanning Copies on the Printer/Copy Machine. Please Help. I have been trying to get it to work for a week. It IS a New Printer. I have tried it on 2 seperate Computers which work well with other Brands of Printers. One Runs Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit, Acer Aspire Desktop. The Other a Dell T5400 running Windows 7 Professional 64 Bit . Printer is set as DEFAULT. ALL SOFTWARE is UPDATED AND INSTALLED. It says it is installed properly, and that it is Hooked up Properly, Yet it will NOT work properly. Thank you.

    Welcome to the HP Community , I read through your post about the printing issues you have been having, and I hope to help you! Seeing how the printer will make copies and test print tells us that the printer itself is fine and there is no hardware issues. However, seeing how printing from two different computers will not work, flags a software problem on the computers. Please try out the steps below and get back to me with the results and we will go from there. If you did not install the Full Driver, run the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows to search and install the complete driver and software. This will need to run on both computers individually. Manually restart the print spoolers on the computers:1. Click Start
    2. Type "Services" in the search field.
    3. Open SERVICES
    4. At the bottom, click "Extended View"
    5. Search for Print Spooler
    6. Right-click it and choose Properties
    7. Select as Automatic in the drop down box, close the Window
    8. Right click on Print Spooler and choose "Stop", wait until it stops and then right click again and "Start".
    9. Close out of Services and try printing from Notepad.10. Try printing from a web browser now, if there is a problem with the print, try a different web browser.  Show thanks for my reply to help you today by hitting the "thumbs up" icon below!I hope to hear from you, good luck!

    I was trying to scan a document using this new printer and my Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1 and I cannot even find the page that allows me to scan since now it is all through the computer.  Is this printer compatible with this operating system? and if so, what can I do to see the page where the file actually shows up to scan?
    thanks,
