How do I get my HP6840 from offline to online?

I reinstalled my HP6850 to my Dell Inspiron.  I installed the printer using the online driver from HP.  On the control panel, the printer appears as the default printer but says it is offline.  How do I change it to online?  Thanks.

Deskjet 6840 -- good printer, had one for years.
The most likely cause for the printer being offline is due to the firewall or security SW on your Dell interfering with the printer SW.
First, let's check if the printer is on the network. On the printer, press the button with the check mark -- a report page will come out. Item #3 is the IP address of the printer's internal web page. Tell me what the IP address is and see if you can browse to it.
If you can, then the Dell and the printer can communcate.
Next, open the printer folder on the control panel, double click on the 6840 printer icon, then click printer, select properties, then ports. A Standard TCP/IP port should be selected.

  • How do I turn my printer from 'offline' to 'online' and why does it keep going 'offline'?

    Why does it keep saying my printer is 'offline' and there is no communication between computer and printer? How do I turn it 'online'? There doesn't seem to be an option to do so.
    Thank you.

    Sorry that you are having a problem with the printer being offline. 
    Try to perform a hard reset on the printer. Unplug the power cord from the back. Leave it out for 30 seconds and plug it back in. 
    Are you connected USB or wireless?

  • How can i get all values from jtable with out selecting?

    i have one input table and two output tables (name it as output1, output2). Selected rows from input table are displayed in output1 table. The data in output1 table is temporary(means the dat wont store in database just for display purpose).
    Actually what i want is how can i get all values from output1 table to output2 table with out selecting the data in output1 table?
    thanks in advance.

    You could set the table's data model to be the same:
    output2.setModel( output1.getModel() );

  • How do I get voice memos from an un-synced iPhone onto a MacBookPro?

    How do I get voice memos from an un-synced iPhone onto a MacBookPro?
    Problem: when I click Sync I get a warning stating "Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing songs and playlists on the iPhone “Jarrod Vassallo’s iPhone” will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library."
    I don't care if the iPhone syncs with the laptop (and the music is lost), I just cannot afford to lose the Voice Memos too as they are very important. Any suggestions?

    To follow this user tip using iTunes 11, fist go to View>Show Sidebar.  Also, Transfer Purchases (step 5) is now in File>Devices.
    If they're too large to email and you don't want to sync, the only other option is to use 3rd party software to transfer them using usb, such as PhoneView (Mac only) or Touch Copy (PC or Mac).

  • How do you get a RESPONSE from Verizon?

    How does one get a response from Verizon?  Here's my situation...
    Given the amount of trouble that I have had with a recent order, you would think that I was trying to land a 747 jet on my roof.  In reality, all I was aiming to do was to cancel the $19.99 per month phone service that I never used.  I do not even own a phone, for that matter.  I also had enhanced high speed Internet, and I wanted to retain the high speed Internet.  A few days before January 13, 2012, I called Verizon and spoke to the 1st sales representative, who ensured me that it was no problem to cancel the phone service and yet retain the high speed Internet for the same monthly price.  24 hours later, my high speed DSL service was no longer functioning.  I will try to briefly explain the disastrous customer service that ensued. 
    The first several phone calls to Verizon were not productive as I was transferred to the wrong department, and then at least one of my phone calls was dropped by the Verizon server.  The representative did not call me back.  I finally got in touch with a technical support representative, the 2nd Verizon representative, who informed me that the high speed Internet had been turned off and that I had to speak to a sales representative to solve the issue.  Another sales representative, the 3rd Verizon representative, informed me that the 1st representative had cancelled my phone line, and thus cancelled all of my services.  Great.  The 3rd representative informed me that he was absolutely capable of handling the problem and that he would simply add a new order for high speed Internet, which was to be activated the next morning.  The next morning came and went, and guess what?  No Internet.  I called again.  The 4th Verizon representative told me that everything that had been done previously was incorrect and that the sales department is not capable of making such changes.  She told me that she could not help me and that my claim had to be submitted to a different department, which has the authority to un-do all of the previous changes.  She told me that I would receive a call back the same day to resolve the issue.  Given my previous experiences with Verizon, I was confident that I would not, in fact, receive a call back and so I asked her how I could get transferred to this department, if I needed to call again.  She said that I could not be transferred.  Okay.  So then I asked her what to ask for so that next time I called, I could be transferred to the correct department without dealing with yet another sales representative who gives me yet a different story.  She informed me that she could not provide that information to customers.  The Department That Shall Not Be Named (and that I cannot contact) did not call me, and I was not surprised.  Unfortunately, I did not know how to go about contacting them, because, as I was told, customers aren’t allowed to do that. 
    The 6th phone call to Verizon was dropped by the Verizon server.  The 7th phone call to Verizon went to the 5th Verizon representative, a sales associate who placed us on hold for the first 15 minutes only to inform us that she could not find any record of our Internet service.  What the heck was she doing, checking her Facebook account?  She finally returns, puts us on another extended hold, and then adamantly tells us that we need to speak with technical support, which, if you recall, was the first Verizon party that I spoke at the beginning of this debacle.  The 5th  representative transfers me again to technical support.  Of course, the technical support personnel, the 6th Verizon representative said what the first one did, that the account was inactive and that we needed to talk to the sales department.  My husband was on the phone at this point because I was DONE.  When the 6th technical support representative tried to transfer him back to the sales department, my husband insisted that the 6th technical support representative remain on the line while we spoke to yet another sales representative, the 7th Verizon representative.  The 6th technical support representative patiently waited with us while we sat in yet another long queue to speak with a member of the sales department. 
    The 7th sale representative, from the retention department based out of New Jersey, found that all previous orders had been set up erroneously.  She cancelled the old orders and reinstated a completely new order.  The DSL began working a few days later.  MAGIC.  She then left me a voicemail message saying that she would eliminate the activation and shipping fee (duh) as I never canceled the account to begin with and as I already had the equipment.  She also applied a coupon to reduce the price to around $30 per month, assured for the next 2 years.  I was relieved. 
    You can imagine our frustration then when we received the bill for $79 on February 6, 2012, which included a much higher monthly rate (around $45) and the shipping and activation fee of $19.99 that we were assured we would not pay. Again, nothing was shipped to us because we already had the equipment.
    Our next phone call to Verizon landed us with a guy, the 8th Verizon representative, who had no intention of helping us.  According to him, there was no record of these wrongs, and despite the fact that we had an old account number and three order numbers that were screwed up, he did not deem that there was enough evidence to change our monthly bill.  (Unfortunately, the 7th Verizon representative did not make notes or appropriately document the situation on the new account.)  The 8th Verizon representative then had the audacity to comment that we could be lying to him, yet he was unwilling to view the evidence that we could have presented.  Instead, he suggested that we call tech support again and try to go through the same process to get connected to the mysterious “retention department” which he knew nothing about. 
    At this point, I was beyond fed up.  The attitude of the 8th Verizon representative put me over the edge.  I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) with an abbreviated version of this story.  I did not file the complaint to get back at Verizon.  Instead, I filed the complaint because I knew that another phone call to Verizon would be useless.  I’ve been dealing with this issue for over a month, and I’m sick of it.  I have better things to do with my time, believe it or not, and this situation has resulted in a significantly waste of my time over what, in my opinion, was a very simple issue to resolve. 
    The BBB processed the complaint and I was contacted last Friday afternoon by a Verizon representative (the 9th) who said that she was looking into the matter and that she would respond to me within two to three business days.  Well, it’s almost the end of the week, and I have received no response.  Again, after all of this, how could I be surprised? 
    I have been a Verizon customer, wireless and residential, for as long as I can remember, but I am reaching the point of outrage.  This situation is truly unacceptable. 
    You would think that, in 2012, with all of the technology available to us and the fact that Verizon is a COMMUNICATIONS COMPANY, that at least Verizon employees would be able to make a basic change to an existing order and that at least one out of 9 Verizon representatives would be able to solve this issue in a span of over four weeks.  Think again.

    Yes, it indeed boggles the mind.  I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services.  This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services.   As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
    If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums.  You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
    Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.

  • How we can get the values  from one screen to another screen?

    hi guru's.

      satheesh.

    Just think of dynpros as windows into the global memory of your program... so if you want the value of a field on dynpro 1234 to appear on dynpro 2345, then just pop the value into a global variable (i.e. one defined in your top include), and you will be able to see it in your second dynpro (assuming you make the field formats etc the same on both screens!).

  • How can i get all links from html file ?

    I tried some code:
    List<string> metas = new List<string>();
    string text = "";
    string mys = "";
    public List<string> LockedThreads(string filename)
    HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
    HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
    doc.Load(filename, Encoding.UTF8);
    var metaTags = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//meta");
    if (metaTags != null)
    foreach (var tag in metaTags)
    if (tag.Attributes["name"] != null && tag.Attributes["content"] != null)
    text = tag.Attributes["name"].Value;
    mys = tag.Attributes["content"].Value;
    var linksOnPage = from lnks in doc.DocumentNode.Descendants()
    where lnks.Name == "a" &&
    lnks.Attributes["href"] != null &&
    lnks.InnerText.Trim().Length > 0
    select new
    Url = lnks.Attributes["href"].Value,
    Text = lnks.InnerText
    foreach (HtmlNode node in doc.DocumentNode
    .SelectNodes("//a/@href | //img/@src"))
    metas.Add(node.Name);
    In the var linksOnPage i'm getting all the links but some of them not only links for example the first item i see:
    [0] = { Url = "/", Text = "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" }
    Then the second item:
    [1] = { Url = "http://rotter.net/cgi-bin/forum/dcboard.cgi?az=login", Text = "התחבר" }
    Next i want to add another loop or variable that will contain only the links after im src for example:
    <img
    src="http://mysite.com"
    border="0"></a></TD><TD
    ALIGN="right"
    VALIGN="TOP"
    WIDTH="55%">
    So to get only http://mysite.com
    So in the end i will have two Lists:
    First List will contain all links from the html file.
    Second List only links that are in img src

    Ok i'm using regex now and i can get the links i need:
    List<string> metas = new List<string>();
    List<string> metas1 = new List<string>();
    string text = "";
    string mys = "";
    public List<string> LockedThreads(string filename)
    string[] fall = File.ReadAllLines(filename);
    foreach (string hh in fall)
    if (hh.Contains("http://rotter.net") && hh.Contains("locked")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_general") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_anchor") ||
    hh.Contains("icon_anchor") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_fire") ||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_sport")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_camera")||
    hh.Contains("locked_icon_movie"))
    Regex linkParser = new Regex(@"\b(?:https?://|www\.)\S+\b", RegexOptions.Compiled | RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
    foreach (Match m in linkParser.Matches(hh))
    metas.Add(m.Value);
    So now in the metas i have in this case two links.
    For example the first link is from this block in the file:
    The link i got is : http://rotter.net/forum/Images/hot_icon_anchor.gif
    And this is the right link from this block but now how do i get the text from this block and how i connect how do i know that this text belong to the link ? I need to add this text from this block to a new List. Before all that i counted on my own lines
    and got the text but that's a bad idea.
    I need somehow to get: שרשור תשדירי בחירות מרוכז:
    To get the text between the ToolTip',' and the second ',' but not from all the html file only in places of this two links i extracted.
    <TD ALIGN="RIGHT"
    VALIGN="TOP">
    <body onmousemove="overhere()">
