How do I make my hp J4580 printer print wirelessly from my mac 10.7.5 laptop

Hi,
I would like to make my HP J4580 all in one printer wirless.  I have a mac 10.7.5 laptop.  I have read the other posts and it appears to be possible but I can't figure out how to do it.  One of the posts said you need an Ethernet cable, however, there is no place on the back of the J4580 printer to hook up an Ethernet cable.  I tried hooking up the USB cable that came with my printer to my new comcast modem that has wireless, however, that did not work.  I do have sharing on.  
1.  Is it possible?
2.  If so, how exactly is it done?  Since I'm not that computer savvy, I do need step by step directions.
I copied this from one of your other posts.  The back of my computer is exactly the same.
Thank you,
HR

Hi hrsre,
I understand you're wondering if you can make your Officejet J4580 printer work wirelessly or wired via Ethernet. I will certainly do my best to answer this for you.
The printer you have does not have any wireless capabilities. If an HP printer does not come with wireless capabilities there is no way to make it such. What I would recommend at this point if you're adamant that you have a wireless printer is to call HP Tech Support for your area and inquire about the out of warranty trade in and trade up program to see what sort of wireless printer they can get to you.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • How can i make a email for my printer

    how can i make a email for my printer to send the things to the email and get it printed if i was out of the house my printer model is 3525

    Hi alhashmi_sy,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you would like to learn how to setup the ePrint feature of your Deskjet Ink Advantage 3525 printer.
    The first step is to connect your printer to your wireless network. Please follow the steps in the Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection document for your operating system. If you have already setup your printer with a USB cable, each operating system section has the steps to switch from the USB connection to a wireless connection.
    After connecting the printer to your wireless network please follow the steps for Getting the Printer Claim Code. Once you have the web services information sheet with your claim code please Set Up a Custom Email Address for ePrint.
    You should now have a customized ePrint email address for your printer. If you run into any issues please let me know at what step things went awry and the contents of any error messages. Please also let me know what operating system you are using on your computer (whatsmyos.com). Thank you.
    Regards,
    Happytohelp01

  • How can I make signature darker when I print the report?

    I need to put my manager's signature on the report. The signature is too light, How can I make it darker when I print the report?
    I used file link and OLE, both did't make it.
    Thanks.

    No way to do it directly in the report. You need to work with signature image file using any graphic software to increase its contrast. The easiest probably would be to use Paintbrush and change the image to black-and-white, then save back as jpeg file.

    Hi,
    Which type of connection you want to use ? Which tabs are you talking about ? I could not find full specs of your printer, how old is it ? Do you use a wireless network at home ? As mentioned above, I don't know your existing hardware therefore you need to check the book and select a suitable connection first.

  • How do I make my HP PhotoSmart 3210 printer wireless Network

    How do I make my HP PhotoSmart 3210  printer wireless. It has an Ethernet port which works fine but I want to print on my current wireless network. Can you use any wireless router of G or N? What else can I use? I'm looking for the cheapest option. Also, It has bluetooth, can I use any USB bluetooth for that to work.? I would rather use my network but if all else fails bluetooth will have to due
    I am currently runnning windows 7 if it matter. But, I don't think it does.

    Hi,
    Buy a new wireless printer could be much cheaper and no headache. Or you can try something like this:

    A senior citizen needs some help.
    Thanks

    Saving each image as different size - is it an option for you?  I would save images with their name as: 20x30.png, 16x20.png etc etc.
    Or explain whether you want these in a webpage  in which case only one image is necessary and different sizes are displayed with good CSS code.  this is question for Dreamweaver forum if this is what you want.

  • How can I make US letter the default print size in PSE12

    How can I make US letter the default print size in PSE12

    Clips from JVC Everio camcorders have always had this problem with Premiere Elements (all versions). You need to select Interpret Footage.
    See this FAQ from PE version 2, step 3. Like I said it has been this way with all versions:

    You might be able to use this tool to change the header of your MOD files so they are seen as 16:9: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/DVDPatcher
    Or use this program (SDCopy) to download the video's from the cam, it will allow you to copy straight from the cam to your PC and auto renames and corrects the aspect ratio.

  • When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    When printing two-sided from my Mac on landscape A4 with 2 columns, how can I get my HP Photosmart 6520 to print the same way up?

    Or, it is set the other way around (which makes more sense). Even though you are in Landscape mode, it is binding on the Long Side of the paper. Since you are in Landscape, you would want it to bind on the short side.
    Think of the Binding like a Book. How would you flip the finished pages to read the “book.” Where it would be bound in the imaginary book is how you want it to print.

  • How to print double sided from my Mac to my Canon MG6350

    I have looked up everywhere on the internet and youtube of how to print double sided from my Mac Book Pro. I am using OSX 10.8.5.
    All of the dicussions I have looked up before have told me to go to System Preferences>Print & Scan>Options & Supplies> Driver and then tick the little box that comes up and it will allow you to print double sided. I have tried doing this but THERE IS NO DRIVER TAB!!!
    I was just wondering if there was a solution to this as I can print double sided from my other appliences, like the PC and iPad, it is just my Mac Book Pro that doesn't work.
    It has become a big problem for me as I'm studying at college and I need to print things double sided quite regularly. I really need this to work.

    The print dialog has several drop-down menus, one of which initially shows the name of the application you're printing from. If the printer supports duplex, you can choose
    Duplex Printing & Margin
    from that menu. You should then see a checkbox marked
    Automatic Duplex Printing

  • How i can make multilanguage application .. take his vlues from database

    How i can make multilanguage application .. take his values from database
    and can change labels of massages , buttons ,text fields and name of columns in run time
    in jdevelpoer11g
    great thank

    Hi,
       I think that there is not a standard support for retrieving multilanguage texts from database in ADF. What we did is to implement our own ResourceBundle that retrieves the translated text from custom database tables. We also introduced a cache for optimizing the access to the translations.
    I hope this can help,
