How do I make my "off-line" printer go on-line?

I am a new MacBook user. I have windows network. I installed printer CUPS driver for my brother 7820N printer. can print when connected directly with USB. MB recognizes printer when not connected directly...must be going through the wireless network. try to print and little printer icon on DOCK starts jumping...says printer is Off-Line. can see the files in the queue.
Any ideas on how to make the printer "on-line"? Thank you.

My Brother 2170-W printer just began giving me the same "off-line" message I called Brother support and they were very responsive and said it was a problem with the new OS 10.5.5 update and they would have a patch shortly (in a week maybe?).

How do I make my HP P2055dn printer into a wireless network printer for 5 computers

How do I make my HP P2055dn printer into a wireless network printer for 5 computers? Windows versions on computers used are XP,Vista & 7.
Thanks

Unplug the USB cable from the printer. Plug your printer into your wireless router with an Ethernet cable.
Next, on each computer, get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page. Install it and select "Network" installation when it asks.

I would like to find out how you can make revenue off your podcast?

Plug your ipod into your pc, load up itunes, make sure update to "manual" is set in preferences in itunes. Select your music on your iPod (via iTunes) and just delete it...(press del). I save my iTunes library using PodUtil (http://www.kennettnet.co.uk/software/podutil.php) although there are many other 3rd party apps that do this.

How can I make my user input on the same line as the question?

The only way I know of doing it is
System.out.println ("Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet: ");
letter = dataIn.readLine ();But that makes Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet:
**User input here, a line down**So how can I make it all fit into one line with this sort of layout:
Please enter an uppercase letter of the English Alphabet: **USER INPUTS HERE, SAME LINE**

change your call from println to print.
check the API docs for this stuff, it tells you everything you need to know.

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 my officejet 6500a print in black and white only?

I just bought an officejet 6500a and I can't figure out how to make it print in black in white only. I print a lot of stuff that doesn't need color and want to save my ink. On some prints it gives me that option when I print. but for the most part it doesn't allow me to change to black and white on things i am printing off the web

Pages 30-34 of the user manual for the Officejet 6500A covers how to change print preferences for the printer with both Mac and Windows. It covers documents, brochures and photos and covers finding the gray scale option. Here is a link to that manual http://goo.gl/6J61R .
I hope that this helps.

How to not make a report NOT print hidden fields

I have a report were i have alot of hidden fields under my real report. My report uses calculations from the hidden fields.
My problem is that when i run the report and export it to for example PDF. It generates 4 pages. 3 of them are empty and the first one is the one i only want to use.
I think this is because i have so meny hidden fields. So can i do something so that the pages with hidden fields do not get exportet?
Systemdeveloper @ 4film

Hi Edvard,
According to your description, when exporting the report, you don't want to have the hidden fields exported. Right?
In Reporting Services, when we export a report, all the parts in this will be exported including all the hidden report parts. In this scenario, even you cancel the page break and make it together on one page, those hidden fields will still be exported
as blank space in your report. And if there are too many hidden parts, it will exceed the page size and still have blank page in your report. So for your requirement, we suggest you use some function like Lookup(), LookupSet() in expression to do calculation
for other data fields instead of using a lot of hidden fields.
Reference:
Lookup Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
LookupSet Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,
Simon Hou
Correct, i don't want them exported. when i generate the report all my required data fits on one page. And then i get three blanks.

How do I make a non-closed figure out of lines (continuous, because corners need to line up) of a certain thickness, and then cut it out?

Hi guys
Could you help me with this problem? I suspect it's very simple but I'm a beginner.
I need to create a continuous shape out of lines 15 pixels thick, and then cut it out. I've tried the line tool, using the shift key to add to endpoints, but then the corners do not end up exactly. I've also tried the path key on the pen tool, but this always closes the shape for me, which is not what I want. The shape IS the line.
I've attached a picture of a basic sketch of the shape I'd like to produce. Can any of you give me any advice? Thank you.

Draw a baseline guide to snap the pen tool to where you want the lines to line up If you're using CS6 or later, use the stroke so you can edit the line.

How do you make PS recognize a printer?

I just installed photoshop elements 8 but it keeps telling me to install a printer when I already have one installed and it prints find will all my other programs. Also it says it's crashing everytime I try to print> Help - I really need these for Christmas Gifts.

Go to the web site for the manufacturer of your printer. Check to see if there are updated drivers for your model.

On opening, the browser comes up with not an address navigation bar, but with only two google search windows. How can I make it open with an actual address line?

It's all been said in the question.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"

I have windows 2000 professional. yea, i know it's old. how can i make a new hp printer work?

I need to buy a new printer. Our old Canon bit the dust. I need an all-in-one Printer/Copier/Scanner/Fax. I would like to go back to HP. Any ideas?
Do I have to download a new driver, and if so where do I get that. Can I even get a new printer, with such an old system?

There are a number of different "speed dial" or "fast dial" add-ons to do this. To see which one you had before, check your disabled add-ons. There could be an updated version.
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
On the left side, click Extensions, then scroll down to the grayed out ones. Can you spot it?
