Hi,
You need a wireless network for your printer to be able to "talk" with your laptop. Using wireless router (or access point) is the normal way. Please use the following manual (from page #5) to hook your printer to your home network:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01796502.pdf
After that, you have to download drivers and software from the following link to install to your laptop:

Hello,
Thanks for the post. With this one, you will need to get or access if already loaded, APPLE'S iOS download AirPrint. I've included several links below with some excellent information regarding this method. The first link is printing with AirPrint. A great place to start. Good Luck!

HT3500 How do I connect my iPad to my wireless printer?

How do I connect my iPad to my wireless printer?

Your iPad should be able to print directly to your printer if it is an AirPrint compatible model.
Check this Apple support document to see if your printer is compatible.

How to setup a static IP for a wireless printer

This problem has been ongoing for several versions of OS X and the last five printers I've had and I'm finally over messing with it. For some reson, when using a wireless printer with OS X this is a repetetive problem, and I think if I configured the printer to a static IP address instead of using DHCP, it might work better. At least once a week, if not more often, I'll print something and get the ubiquitous Dock error of "Printer is not connected". The printer is still in Preferences, but if I delete it, then it doesn't show up as it should for selection.
The only way to fix this is reboot, and then the printer shows up again in Preferences. I select it and all is well again...until a few days pass and the same thing happens again. Using an HP LaserJet P1102w, still a current model, but it doesn't matter which printer I use. I also have an Epson Artisan 725 and the same thing happens with it about once a week. Also, this happens from both my Mac and my wife's Mac, so it's not an issue with just my machine.
I've searched for documentation on how to setup a static IP address for a wireless printer with the Airport Extreme, but all I find are tutorials on how to do it with an ethernet hard-wired printer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could set up your router to do manual assignment of IP address instead of using DHCP, but that is a PITA, because then you'd have to manually set up IP for all your devices.
If you have AirPOrt Extreme, you could do this:
In your Apple TV, go to the Settings >> About and write down the MAC address of your ATV
Start up the AiPort Admin Utility
Go to Network tab
click + in the DHCP reservations
Choose an IP you want for your ATV & Enter the MAC address
From now on, this IP address will be reserved to the MAC address and only your ATV will be able to get it, no other device will.
It is not a static IP in a true sense, but behaves just like one.
Works great for me...
If you don't have a AP Extreme, I'm sure other routers will allow you do reservations too.

I bought a used Mac Book from the widow of a neighbor who had died. We don't know the password. How can we get in to set up wireless printing??

I bought a used Mac Book from the widow of a neighbor who had died. I am trying to set up wireless printing for a new HP printer and it asks for the Administrators password. Is there any way to break through this and create a new password?

Is the Macbook running? If yes, go to Apple Menu About This Mac to find out the version of Mac OS X you are running.
If the computer is not working, do you know the model, or the version of the operating system on the MB?
You can track down some information with the serial number. Here's how to find the serial number:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1366
With the serial number you can identify the model on this site:

When we know the model it will be much easier to answer your questions.

How do I connect my iPad to my wireless printer

How do I connect my wireless printer to my I pad

iOS devices can only print directly to AirPrint printers. All AirPrint printers are wireless but not all wireless printers are capable of using AirPrint.
To print directly from an iPad / iPhone you will need an AirPrint compatible printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac computer running Printopia ($19.95 with free trial) or handyPrint (donation - supported). The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
You can also buy this standalone print server:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
The xPrintServer Home Edition will support a directly connected USB printer. The Network Edition will support any network printer.
These options enable you to use any printer available to your Mac, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades.
Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device.

How do I set up the MX430 for wireless printing

My printer was working but then was turned off. Now I can't get it to print mode. How do I get it out of copy, scan and fax and back to print?

Hi Mbutterfly, (The unit that you are using is part of the MX430 series of printers. Your specific model is either the PIXMA MX432 or PIXMA MX439. In my reply, I use the PIXMA MX432, but the steps are the same for the PIXMA MX439.) Uninstalling the network port and printer driver and reinstalling them will resolve this issue. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. Put the PIXMA MX432's CDROM in the CDROM drive. If the welcome screen appears, exit it.
2. On the Start Menu Screen, place the cursor in the upper right hand corner to expose the Charms Menu.
3. Click on Search.
4. Type RUN. Click on APPS and then click on RUN in the Search Results on the left hand side.
5. Click Browse. In the Browse window, click on "Computer".
6. Double click the CANON_IJ CDROM.
7. Double click the folder named WIN.
8. Double click the folder named Driver.
9. Double click the folder named DrvSetup.
10. Double click the file named DELDRV. If you are using the 64 bit version of Windows 8, please double click DELDRV64.
11. In the Run box click OK and then follow the on-screen prompts to remove the driver.
Once complete, please follow these steps:
1. On the Start Menu Screen again, place the cursor in the upper right hand corner to expose the Charms Menu.
2. Click on Search.
3. Type RUN. Click on APPS and then click on RUN in the Search Results on the left hand side.
4. Click Browse. In the Browse window, click on "Computer".
5. Double click the CANON_IJ CDROM.
6. Double click the folder named WIN.
7. Double click the folder named Driver.
8. Double click the folder named LAN.
9. Double click the file named CNMNPU.exe
10. In the Run box click ok.
11. Follow the prompts to uninstall.
Once complete, restart the computer.
Please follow these steps to download the necessary files to begin installation:
1. Visit Canon's website at: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer
2. Type PIXMA MX432 in the "Enter Your Model Name" box and click GO.
3. On the Support page for your unit, click the 'Drivers & Software' link in the middle of the page.
4. Under Recommended for You, please click on the MX430 series Mini Master Setup.
5. If you agree, please select the checkbox next to "I have read and agree to the terms of the Disclaimer and wish to continue with the download".
6. Click on the Download button.
7. A File Download box should appear at the bottom of your web browser. Click Save.
8. Once the download is complete, open the Downloads folder.
To install the unit for use over your network wirelessly, please follow these steps when the computer restarts:
1. Press the <Setup> button on your PIXMA MX432.
2. Use the left or right button to select Device Settings and press <OK>.
3. Use the left or right button to select LAN Settings and press <OK>.
4. Use the left or right button to select Wireless LAN Setup and press <OK>.
6. Enter your WEP key and press <OK>. Please verify the WEP, as it is case sensitive and if entered incorrectly, will cause the printer and router to not communicate. To switch between letters and numbers, press the * key.
7. Press <OK> on the confirmation screen. The PIXMA MX432 will search for the access point.
8. When found, press <OK> on the Connected to the access point screen.
9. Back on your computer, double click [mast-win-mx430-1_1-ucd.exe] to begin installation of the drivers.
Follow the prompts and installation will complete.

How do I set up wireless printer w/o use of CD?

Hello,
I spent a couple of hours trying to enable wireless connection to Brother MFC-J825DW printer. I was able to add a printer using USB cable, but how do I go about setting up the wireless printer setting without use of supplied CD? Laptop has OS 10.7.
Thanks in advance for your help.

From the Brother web page noted above:
My PC does not have a CD-ROM drive. How can I install the supplied software without a CD-ROM drive?
Description:
The latest version of drivers, software* and manuals are available on the Brother Solutions Center.
(*except for some software)
To download the drivers and software go to the Downloads section.
To download the manuals go to the Manuals section.
And for step-by-step network installation, see http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/us/us/en/faq/faq/000000/002700/0 00094/faq002794_005.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=mfcj825dw_all&Cat=108
If this is more than you want to do, then as Ziatron suggested above, drop $79 on the Apple SuperDrive.

How to hook up Power Mac G4 to my i.Mac

Been browsing through discussions and Apple stuff, talked to support techs at Apple Care (with less than desired results), but still need help on how to do this.
Here's what I want to do: Get step-by-step instructions on how to hook up an "old" (think it was made in 1999) Power Mac G4 to my i.Mac computer.
a) primarily to serve as back-up for my documents, pictures, music, etc., even programs if that can be done, and;
b) actually use some of the old programs that are on that old G4 (i.e. Adobe Pagemaker)
Here's what I have:
1) a flat-panel i.Mac, 1 GHz PowerPC G4, 256 MB DDR SDRAM, using Panther;
2) an old Power Mac G4 (the rather large, vertical hard drive) of which I know nothing about the specs....like memory, storage, or system it has, etc......at least until I can get into it. It's been sitting idle for about four years;
3) a three-foot, 6-pin to 6-pin cable (Belkin) which I am told is what I need to connect the two computers via FireWire jacks.
So, presuming I have all that is needed to hook these two machines up, how do I proceed. A "1, 2, 3 instruction would be very much appreciated.
For example, should both computers be turned on "before" inserting the FireWire cable, or......should just the i.Mac be turned on, then insert the cable, then turn on the old Mac?
Once hooked up, and powered up, it's my understanding I'll see on icon for the old Mac on my i.Mac desktop. To copy files, I'm supposed to just drag and drop to the old Mac icon. Is that right?
Then to actually use the old Mac, I'm supposed to reboot my i.Mac, then hold down the "t" key just after the reboot "sound," or little circling icon, and I'll be in the old Mac? The screen will show everything on the "old" Mac? Is this right? Sounds simple enough, but.
If this is right and I'm actually in the old Mac, can I then sort and arrange documents I've dragged and dropped, and can I use programs that are already on that old Mac......like Pagemaker?
And, how do I get "out" of the old Mac and back into my i.Mac?
I see through discussions that I can apparently backup my entire i.Mac hard drive by going to the HD finder window and dragging and dropping my user folder icon (the little one that appears at the top and in the center of the Finder window, to the old Mac icon. Does that sound right?
I surely would appreciate some help on this. What I've got so far is piecemeal tidbits, nonsequential, and often, unclear.
Thanking anybody and everybody who might be inclined to help me out.

Thank you A Brody,
This is all very helpful to a guy like me.
I guess the first thing I'll have to do is get an ethernet cable. Presumably, the FireWire cable will not be needed now. Correct?
The same questions still seem to apply. I did print out the "Connecting two computers using Ethernet" that you forwarded to me.
1) But, do I power up both computers before installing Ethernet cable?
2) After following instructions on the"Connecting two computers....." will an icon appear for the old Power Mac?
3) After hooking up the Ethernet cable, do I have to re-boot, use the "T" key, to get into the old Power Mac?
4) After fiddling around on the old Power Mac, how do I get out of there and back onto my i.Mac?
5) Or, because it would be hooked up via Ethernet, could I simply go back and forth between the two computers?
By the way, after checking out your info on how to identify my old Power Mac, this is the info I've been able to glean, I think:
The old Power Mac is:
• A Power Mac G4 (PCI Graphics)........and therefore, it says, not able to serve as a target computer backup with my i.Mac
• Apparently made in 1999
• System, apparently, is OS 8.6 (my i.Mac is OS X 10.3.9...Panther)
• Model number either M7631 or M7826 (can't find it on the computer)
• Memory: PC 100 SDRAM, up to 1 GB (don't know how much it has now)
• I have no idea how much storage is available (i.e. my i.Mac is 74.5 GB (I think)
Thanking you again

Am considering buying a Time Capsule. But all specs I read about it (re: printing) is how to hook up a printer via USB connection. Need to confirm...that a wireless printer will work with the router feature of the Time Capsule. I assume yes...?

A wireless printer connects to the network just like your computer, or iPhone/iPad, etc. connects using wireless.
The printer must be set up intially to scan to "find" available wireless networks, then your specific wireless network needs to be selected. Then the password for the network needs to be entered.
Once the printer is configured to join the network, it is always connected to the network. No further configuration is required.
