How to connect Brother HL-2170W to our PC

Our printer Brother HL 2170W won't print.  Can you help us to understand why.  Our printer apparently isn't connected to our home group.  We have previously been using this printer and do not understand why it won't work.
Thanks

1. Are there any errors and warnings in Event logs (including spooler ones)?
2. What you did before it stoped to work? Any update, change of configuration, installation of application...
3. Because there are optional driver updates that sometime does not work correctly, reinstall printer driver. Do it with elevated rights

    How to connect Brother HL2270DW to Time Capsule wi-fi?

    Well,
    1. tried (vide setup manual for the printer) letting the printer find the wi-fi:
    http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/us/us_ot/en/faq/faq/000000/00200 0/000037/faq002037_011.html?reg=us&c=us_ot&lang=en&prod=hl2270dw_all#ForMac
    Didn't work.
    2. Then discovered, by clicking around, under Airport utility > Base station > Add WPS Printer that
    "There are two ways you can allow a WPS printer to join your password-protected network without entering a password. You can either enter a PIN for the printer, or allow access to the first printer that attempts to join you network.
    Before trying either, brought the printer physically close with the Time Capsule (within 2 meters)
    Tried the "First attempt" option first. Failed.
    Then, miraculously, out of the printer came a sheet with a 8 digit PIN code on it. Which enabled trying the 2nd option "Allow WPS printer by: PIN".
    Entered PIN and Continue, but to no awail.
    Final attempt was made by connecting the printer to the USB port of the T.C. That generated a fresh printout with another 8-digit PIN. Which was duly entered, again with no result.
    Am at my wits end. Anything else that could make the twain meet and restore normalcy in this all too Apple-dependent house?

    How to connect my iPad, Brother printer, and AirPort Extreme?

    I don't believe any of the Brother printers are AirPrint-enabled. Is your Brother printer network-ready? That is, does is support either/both a wired or wireless connection or just uses USB to connect?

  • How to connect our outbound function module to the message type

    how to connect our outbound function module to the message type any transcation code exits to assign the message type with the function module .
    Thank in advance .
    A. Thiru

    Hi Thiru,
    Standard Transaction Codes, have their own Function Modules for generating Outbound/Indbound Idocs. Where these Function Modules will be configured to a particular Process Codes.
    For E.g for PO's
    Process code : ME10 - IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS - for creation
    In case if its a Z Function Module, It depends on the case how you use IDOC types. either directly through Z Program or through Inbound/Outbound Process  codes with respective Function modules.

  • WRT110 wireless printer connection to Brother HL-2170W wireless printer

    New here and I have a question.
    I have Linksys WRT110 wireless router that works great. I have 7 notebooks working very well. Assignment were done with WEP connection and made sure that all the MAC addresses are registered and limits that router to recognize only computers with such MAC addresses... no problems at al here.
    Recently I bought Brother HL-2170W wireless printer... followed all the instructions in their manual, registered its MAC address in my router, provided WEP key to the printer (via their web browser utility)... and this is where the brain fart started...
    I can ping to my router just fine... I can ping the printer from the router just fine... however, I can not get the printer to work with any of my notebooks... It works fine if I connect it via USB or Ethernet connections, but nothing on the wireless side..
    I know the IP address that this printer was assigned via DHCP... When I programmed the printer with the correct IP address, it also points to port number 9100... and this is where it falls apart...
    Can someone please tell me what am I doing wrong or better yet, what step am I missing?
    Thank you in advance!

    You said "I know the IP address that this printer was assigned via DHCP... When I programmed the printer with the correct IP address, it also points to port number 9100...".
    When you programmed the printer, do you mean that you entered the DHCP assigned address directly into the printer, so the printer could use it as a fixed (static) LAN IP address?  If so, this might be the cause for your problem.  When you manually assign an IP address to a printer (or other network device), by entering that address directly into the printer, then you must use an IP address that is outside the DHCP server range.  See "Using Static LAN IP addresses" below, for more info on this topic.
    Additionally, to get your printer to work, you must install the network printer drivers on each computer that will use that printer.
    Additionally, for WEP, you must enter WEP "key 1"  (found in the router)  into your printer, not the WEP password or passphrase.
    *****   Using Static LAN IP addresses   *****
    Linksys has several rules for using fixed (static) LAN IP addresses.  You must follow these rules carefully.
    Rules for using fixed LAN IP addresses on Linksys routers:
    With Linksys routers, a fixed (static) LAN IP addresses must be assigned in the device that is using the address. So you need to enter the fixed address in the computer or printer, not in the router.
    When using a Linksys router, any fixed LAN IP address must be outside the DHCP server range (typically 192.168.1.100 thru 192.168.1.149), and it cannot end in 0, 1, or 255.
    Therefore any fixed LAN IP address would normally need to be in the range of
    192.168.1.2 thru 192.168.1.99 or
    192.168.1.150 thru 192.168.1.254
    assuming you are still using the default DHCP server range.
    Also, in the computer, when you set up a static LAN IP address, you would need to set the "Subnet mask" to 255.255.255.0 and the "Default Gateway" to 192.168.1.1 and "DNS server" to 192.168.1.1
    It is also important that no two devices on your network be set to the same static LAN IP address.

  • Members only area of website and how to connect it to existing database

    I am trying to create a members login section on an existing website. We have a MS Access database of clients, and I need the website login creation to be able to look at our database and only let the person create an account, if they are on that list. 
    I've successfully completed a walkthrough/tutorial on creating a members only area of a website, but that allows anyone and everyone to create an account. I need a way to force that check before the new user account is allowed. Any help will ge greatly appreciated!

    Hi,
    According to your description, I think your issue is more about how to connect to Access database from your web site, instead of Access development.
    Which type of connection do you want to use? Is it ADO.NET?
    If so, I suggest you posting in ADO.NET Managed Providers
    forum for more effective responses.
    If not, you can choose a proper forum based on the type of the connection or your developing language.

  • BO Analysis for Excel – How to connect to SAP BW

    Hi Gurus,
    We recently upgrade to BO 4.1 (from 3.1).  And want to start to use Analysis for Excel.
    We are little unclear how to connect from Analysis for Excel to SAP BW 7,3.
    From Analysis select “Select Data Source” Then get a pop-up “Logon to SAP BussinessObjects BI Platform” with User, Password and Web Service URL.  All those are blank.  For the Web Service URL there is a message “Error while checking availability of SAP BussinessObjects BI Platform system”
    If choose “Skip” then get SAP Logonpad and can log on to BW.  From there I can choose the BW queries directly.
    What is the best practice to connect from Analysis for Excel to SAP BW?
    Is it not possible to connect to the BO server?  And choose OLAP connection from there to connect to BW?
    If so, is something missing in our setup?
    Regards,
    Reynir

    Yes you need to define an OLAP connection of you are connecting to BW through the BIP - see tutorial http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-20625
    You can also connect directly to BW without going through BIP
    I also recommend searching before you post per SCN rules - there are many posts about creating OLAP connections

  • How to connect an non-hana-ewm with an Hana-ECC and vice versa

    Hello,
    for our migration project planning I am wondering how to connect EWM on SAP with ECC on Hana and vice versa.
    As it is, both systems are (productive) on non - hana with actual SAP-Release and have to be migrated.
    The background of my question: we may be not able do the "big bang" thing to migrate ERP ECC607 and EWM (with special Add-Ons) at one point to Hana (DMO) and therefore may need an interim solution. I checked ETL and LTS as "connectors" but they - from my point of view -  are one-way solutions from EWM to ECC/Hana -not bidirectional.I Found some questions concerning the same theme in the net but no solution at all till now..
    How about BODS ? (Didnt work with it yet)

    Great. So I have to either install OS X, or buy a new mcahine. Can OS X run on a G3 without grinding to a halt?
    By the way, I cannot get the iPod to even mount when connected via firewire. The USB/firewire PCMCIA card does not have drivers for OS 9. I thought that this support was built into OS 9. The USB port works (although the iPod will not mount when connected via USB either). Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • How to connect serial or usb or parallel port

    telll me how to connect our application with serial port and how to detect weather the usb is connected or not

    Without spending too much time looking at the documentation, from using previous similar transducers, the primary two connections you are concerned with are the "+output" and the "ground". The other connections are also important, but aren't directly the concern of the Data Acquisition Hardware. The "+output" produces a variable dc voltage relative to the "ground" input that is a product of the applied pressure, with the maximum output voltage, as shown on the chart, indicating maximum pressure. So you would connect those, through a suitably shielded, moderately short length, wire to the "DAQ" analog input. You will also have to supply the transducer with it's required + supply voltage at pin 2 "vs", and the power supplie's negative to the ground. There are whitepapers on this NI site about connecting to data acquistion hardware and I strongly suggest reading them a couple of times as well as anything online you can find. Writing the DAQ software, in LabVIEW or whatever, can be trivial compared to making the correct, low noise, connections to sensor hardware.
    I didn't read how the offset adjustment signal is produced or its use, figure it is designed to allow you to "tune out" some signal offset caused by differences between sensors of a type (they will not all have the same "fullscale output" as indicated in the chart).
    As you proceed, please keep asking.

  • How to connect to dsl airport extreme with built in modem

    Hello everybody,
    while we were tiding our cellar, i found an old airport extreme (a1034) with a built in modem, but i aint able to connect to my isp.
    I looked throug the manual, but i didnt got answers there (maybe because of my poor english) . Is there a tutorial out there which tells me
    how to connect to my isp?
    Regards Floh
    PS: again sorry for my poor english

    If you try to set up the new AirPort Extreme with AirPort Utility 5.6.1, you will receive a notice that you need a more up to date version of AirPort Utility.
    Nevertheless, AP 5.6.1 will allow you to set up the basics....wireless network name, password, etc.
    It will appear that you can change other settings that are not found in more recent versions of AirPort Utility, but if you go in and check using a newer version of AirPort Utility, you will find that the settings that you thought you had made have not "stuck".
    For example, you want to change the Radio Mode on the new Extreme and not use the Automatic setting. AP 5.6.1 will appear to let you do this. But, if you check the setting using a more recent version of AirPort Utility you will see that the setting is still set at "Automatic".
    So, the bottom line here is that unless the newer version of AirPort Utility has the specific setting that you want to change, you will not be able to make that change.
    Is there ANY chance, to set up my new "towers" with more
    options, than the current Airport Utilities do offer?
    Unfortunately, no.
