How do I set up HP LaserJet 1022nw in wireless mode?

I just purchased this printer and I am trying to set it up so that it will be accessible by any of our home computers via our home airport extreme base station, regardless of whether any other computer is on.
Following the insructions, I can get all the way to setting it up as part of a computer-to-computer network (what they call adhoc mode). The c2c network shows up on my airport drop down menu, and the little blue light lights up when I set my computer to join it, so I can tell the printer 802.11 board is talking to my computer.
Alas,
1) the next instructions say to use a browser to access the embedded Web server (EWS), but I get a message (from Safari) saying I'm not connected to the internet (because I'm connected to the c2c network) or it can't find the printer (if I'm connected to my airport base station network).
2) I can't see the printer with any utilities I have (Network, Printer Utility).
3) I tried setting Sharing to share web site and found documentation for an Apache web server instead of what the instruction book says!
Any suggestions? Or should I just give up and get the non-wireless printer, that people seem to like.

Well, I've made some progress, but am still stuck a bit further down the road.
I'm using 2 computers, my 12 in. Power Book G4 and my desktop dual G4.
1) Connect printer to laptop via USB; works fine.
2) Connect printer to laptop via provided Ethernet cable and obtain printer address. Now I can access embedded web server via Safari. Set up in Infrastructure mode, enter my airport network name and password (WPA-PSK), keep encription disabled, set TCP/IP to be automatic (manual doesn't work because IP Address changes). Disconnect Ethernet cable.
3) Now I set up a new location on my laptop, as advised in printer instructions, but use DHCP instead of Manual setting for TSP/IP (instructions advise setting Manual -- tried it but doesn't work); disable ethernet, internal modem.
4) Use Printer setup utility: printer appears via Bonjour, I add it to the printer list. Printer location, hpsetup, appears in airport drop down menu, I can print fine.
5) Set up new location on desktop; printer also appears on Printer setup browse via Bonjour, but when I try to add it to my printer list, Printer setup utility hangs up with beachball.
6) I can connect my laptop and desktop the same new network I created according to the HP instructions, and set my laptop to share printer. At this point the 1022nw appears as both a Bonjour printer and a shared printer when I try to add a printer using Printer Setup utility. I was able to add the shared version and print out on it from my desktop.
Trying to add the Bonjour version leads to the utility beachball, hanging up.
Now I need to figure out how to add the printer to my desktop printer sets using the Bonjour version.

Help setting up a Laserjet P1102w for wireless printing on a Mac

I'm trying to setup a Laserjet P1102w on my Mac for wireless printing, but it's not working. It will print fine using USB, but all the documentation for wireless setup is for Windows, not Mac. if I connect the printer via USB to my Mac, how will it get an IP address from my wireless network? Any help appreciated.

Hi Staxofjoy,
Based on the information you provided, and comparing to another post regarding this issue (link below) - It sounds like you are running 10.7 (Lion).
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mac-Printing-and-Scanning/HP-Laserjet-P1102w-driver-for-Macbook-OS-X-Li...
Please go to the linked thread above, and look for the post by mikel1004 - he outlined the steps for connecting Adhoc to the printer very clearly.
Summary of what you will need to to:
1. Reset Printer to Defaults
2. Connect to printer via Adhoc from your Mac (This will disconnect you from your home wireless network)
3. Access HTML Config, and configure the printer's wireless settings manually from there.
4. Reconnect the Mac to the Home Network
5. Add the printer to the print queue.
Hope this helps

How do I set up my PowerBook to print wireless with HP psc 2410

Thanks,

Ensure that the Airport base station is configured to not distribute IP addresses.
On the iMac
System Preferences > Sharing > Printer Sharing
On the PowerBook
Applications > Utilities > Printer Setup Utility
Add Printer
It may work with the HP driver (which you will need to install on the PowerBook)
It may work with a third-party driver such as the HPIJS drivers or the Gimp-Print drivers, but this is not the case with all printers.

How do you set up for AirPrint an HP110A wireless printer without a PC on a wifi network using a Verizon FIOS router)

Purchasing an HP110A wireless printer for my 85 year old father who has and Ipad
This pritner is fully compatible with Airplay per HP site
My dad has no PC
He knows the router passcode.
What is the process?
Will the HP printer to be purchased shortly work out of the box w/no drivers
How do you set the printer up to work on the iPad?

Richard-
I have the HP D110 AirPrint printer. As I recall, it was configured in Ad Hoc network mode when first received. It was necessary to set it up to access my WiFi router before I could use it with the internet connection. Then, as part of the setup process, it downloaded the latest firmware update from HP. This was all done from the printer control panel, and no PC was needed.
As Pvonk mentioned, your router must be able to correctly handle Bonjour data for iPad to print to an AirPrint printer. Go ahead and try it, it may work. If the iPad can't find the printer, you will need to contact Verizon for help in configuring the router or getting a different router that is compatible.
By now, you should realize that a PC is needed to update the iPad. I assume your Dad visits you when he needs use of a PC.

Verify that you can browse to the printer's internal web page by its IP address.
1. Click "Start" button --> Printers and Faxes.
2. Under Printer Tasks, click "Add Printer".
3. Click "Next" button on the Add Printer Wizard window.
4. Select "Local printer attached to this computer". Deselect "Automatically detect and install My Plug and play printer". Click "Next".

HELP: How do I set up an external hard through Wireless Network?

I just bought a Western Digital Hard Drive and I'm trying to set it up via my home wireless network, so multiple computers can send files to the hard drive. Can anyone help?
I see there was one thread earlier this month, but there wasn't a final answer to the question. I have tried allowing file sharing via Preferences and then going to the other computer's Finder>Go>Connect to Network. I enter the afp and it doesn't work.
Can someone help? Thanks.

Yes, until/unless she makes a New User, YOU, on her Computer, that's all you'll see for Security purposes... unless you logged onto Her Computer with Her Username & Her Password, then you'd see everything She does... and visa versa.
But Sharepoints will give better control.
Launch Sharepoints, click the Normal Shares Tab if it isn't already.
On the bottom gove this "Share" a name, click the Browse button and selt your new HD.
Click the AFS sharing ytthing and select "+", click Create New Share.
Click on the Users... Tab, fill in, click add new user.
Click back on the Normal Tab, highlight the Share's name, click on the "Show File Properties" button.
Select Her username and give the rights you wish.

How do i set my time capsule as a wireless external hard drive?

it is currently doing regular automatic back-ups of our system, but we want to set it as our hard drive as well.

If Time Machine backups are occurring correctly, then you already have the Time Capsule set up as a hard drive on your network.
Although not necessarily recommended, that means that you can manually drag/drop or copy/paste data directly to the Time Capsule disk.
Are you asking how to do this, or how to locate the drive? Please clarify.

How do I set the printer to default in fast mode?

I want my printer to default to the fast mode rather than standard; as it is I have to adjust it for each document. How do I do that?

Every Printer driver allow you to save a set of settings.
For instance,
I defined
A4 black & white
A4 colors
listings black & white (which prints two pages on an A4 sheet)
listing colors (which prints two pages on an A4 sheet)
Do the same with your settings.
Use the item Enregistrer or the item Enregistrer sous to save your settings.

How do I set up my time capsule as wireless external hard drive?

I have a new iMac and and a new 2 TB Time Capsule. I bought the Time Capsule to not only use with time machine but also as a wireless external hard drive. What is the best way to set this up from the beginning? Do I just create a new folder under the data folder in my Time Capsule and then start dragging and dropping files? I want to make sure I have the best setup from the beginning. Thanks

My opinion is that the Time Capsule should really be used as it was designed....for Time Machine backups....not as an "everyday" hard drive.
For one thing, access to files on the Time Capsule drive if you place movies, music, images, etc. on the drive is going to be very slow....and really slow if you plan to connect using wireless. Expect lag, stutters, signal drops, etc.
That brings up another question.....if you move your movies, music, images, etc over to the Time Capsule drive.....how will you back up this data? Surely, you plan to keep "original" versions on one drive and "copies" on another to be safe, correct?
My suggestion would be to add an external USB or FireWire drive and attach it directly to your Mac. Move your movies, music, etc. to that drive. Access will be very fast to your media this way. Highly recommended.
Then, Time Machine will backup both your Mac and the hard drive.....so you have backups of everything. Make sense?
Although I do not recommend that you move your files over to the Time Capsule drive based on the information that you have provided so far....If you still want to setup the disk image on the Time Capsule drive, follow these basic steps:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > Disk Utility
Click New Image at the top of the window
Make sure that the little arrow next to the Save As box is pointing up
Navigate through the Finder like interace to open up the Time Capsule drive
Name the disk image and select the size that you want
Click Create
Allow a very long time for the image to created.

How do I set up a Netgear WNR3500 as wireless extender with the Airport Extreme as my main router?

I just got the Airport Extreme yesterday because the Netgear couldn't hold all the computers we had on it. Now the Apple router works great, except for it is downstairs in the basement because our home computer is ancient and only connects via ethernet cord. So the Wi-Fi upstairs is only one bar on my smart phone way in the corner far from the router. I did some research and found out that the Netgear WNR3500 can be used as a wireless extender. I want to hook it up on the main floor away from the Airport where the signal is strong so it will still get great connection but will be able to transmit that same great connection a little bit farther. I just want to know how to do that.
Thank You!

The Netgear WNR3500 has mixed reviews at best and their customer support is unformly regarded as poor.
Interesting how different people have different experiences - although I never needed their tech support, so I would not have an opinion on that, this wireless router was the absolute best router I've ever had. I had to stop using it because I changed ISP's and was forced to use their modem/router combination (nothing else will work with their new V-DSL service); however, I've kept the router in case I should need to use it as an extender (which I haven't). In any case, unlike D-Link, Belkin, or Link-Sys which would at most give me one bar in my livingroom and the signal would cut out intermittently (livingroom is 50 ft from study), the Netgear showed all the bars and was steady as a rock. Configuring it with MAC filtering on their website was much easier than my current one as well.

How do I set shortcuts on my new onn wireless keyboard for volume control?

Replacement Keyboard
Volume control issue with a non- Apple Keyboard
[Sunday - July 29, 2012 - 2:18pm]
Question: I just purchased a new keyboard in place of the orginal for my iMac which gave out this morning. The brand name of the keyboard is
ONN & it's a wireless board. I've encountered an issue that is a deal breaker - if there is no possible way to correct it. The volume control buttons used to
increase/decrease/mute the volume do not work on this product. I bough this keyboard because it was one of the two that was Mac compatable at my
local store. I realize you get what you pay for but hope there is a soulution!
**Sidenote: I was curious, anyone had any other issues with these keyboards?
Some additional information:
When I woke up this morning, sat down in my computer chair, turned on my iMac and pulled up Textedit. I placed my hands on my faithful keyboard and within moments I realized that it had met it's end. I was quite upset that my original, sleek white iMac keyboard was now a thng of the past but realized that I'd need a replacement very soon in order to get my paperwork done.
Unfortunately, I did not have time to ride forty-five minutes to my local Apple store and I didn't neccesarily want to hand over the cash for one of the pricey keyboards at the time because I am going on a vacation within the next few weeks and each dime counts. So, I decided to visit a store that obviously would have the cheapeast deals in the meantime. So, I headed to to Wal-Mart to make a quick purchase
As I walked the aisles it soon became evident that today's market still is not on point when it comes to having Apple compatable hardware, softwore or anything for that matter. As I quickly skimmed the keyboards I ran across several that caught my eye, but of course, they were all made specifically for Windows. So, finally I approcahed two keyboards that were Mac compatible. The first was way too large and came with a mouse, which I did not need. The second caught my eye and I knew that this would be my purchase.:::
The verdict: an onn wireless keyboard that was both affordable and also gave off a sleek and modern apperance. (Retailed: $24.00)
So, I got home and began using the board. For the first how I was actuallly very satisfied. I like the buttons and the feel of the board. Then, I encountered a problem that made my interested for the new keyboard vanish.
The Issue: On the boards layout, the (F2) key has a symbol that notates the decrease volume control button, (F3) of course would be the increase volume button & lastly the (F4) button represents the [mute] button.
However, these buttons don't work. Sadly, I am not aware of how I could possibly change this issue or if it would even be possible. I sincerely hope that it's possible - because I like the convience of the volume control keys - they were actually my favorite part of the keyboard. Manually changing the volume by going through system preferences does not sound fun to me once so ever. I guess you could call me spoiled but I don't think I can even keep this board if it doesn't have the ability to change volume/mute via the keyboard.
This is a shame because the keyboard it'self isn't bad at all and I actually somewhat like it. So, if you have any information or an answer to this question - I'd truly appreciate hearing your responses! Also, do keep in mind I am a rookie when it comes to computers as a whole so try to simplicate things for me if that is nessecary.
Closing negative note on this keyboard: As I typed this I started encountering a very annoying problem. As I am typing in a line, forming a sentence the keyboard would randomly start typing in pargraphs above and below as well. I'm not sure if this is something that I caused by pressing too hard with my hands or if this is a deffect. Either way, I will saving my receipt and the boxing for this product until I hear further news.
I hope to hear from you soon and I appreciate your help very much.
Have a great day,
David Travis Center

How can I set up my iPad to work wirelessly in New Zealand?

We are going to stay at our parent's place in New Zealand, and they have only a very slow dial-up connection to the internet.
We want to take our Apple iPad 4, MacBook 4.1.1 and iPhone 4 and use them wirelessly while we are there.
Last time we used the macBook to connect, but it was so maddeningly slow and we had to disconnect their phone, and feel there must be a better way.
Does anyone know how we can log on via the ipad without having to go up to the local library?

You need the first Internet connection in order to share another connection with the other devices. If you use the Mac and Internet Sharing, then the connection is only going to be as fast as that connection and maybe a little slower since you are all sharing that connection.
You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear as the saying goes, you cannot speed up the connection by any magical means.
You should be able to use the personal hotspot feature on the phone if the carriers there support it.

You might want to look into a MIFI hotspot as well but once again, you would need some sort of plan for it in New Zealand.

How can I set a home network behind a wireless linksys router

The XP wizard for 'setup a home or small office network' doesn't seem to work when I'm behind the router (it used to work before I had a router - back then I worked with a product called 'access point' which was connected to a second network card on my desktop).
My layout is normal, I think. Here are the links:
modem -- ADSL
modem -- router
desktop -- router
laptop -- router (through wireless).
I have internet on both computers. The only thing I cannot do is make one computer find the other.
Anyone knows what should I do ?
Thanks,
Ofer

Make sure both computers have File and Printer Sharing enabled. Also make sure both computers have the same workgroup name. Temporarily disable any software firewalls, such as Norton or McAfee, and see if the computers can see each other.
