How to print with HP Deskjet 2510 with Imac G5 on Tiger ?

Hi Folks
I desperately need some helping hand....
Today my old trusty printer died (HP 1510 print/scan/ copy) and I ran to buy another one because I need to finish some tax paperwork.
In a mad hurry, I didn't pay any attention to tech specs and I went home with brand new HP DeskJet 2510 All In One device. But !!! : ((
In my home office I still use Imac G5 with 10.4.11 which is still pretty good comp for office work but I found out that the HP 2510 don't officially support my Imac with Tiger. Only from 10.6 and later.... I know that Imac G5 can't run nothing above 10.5.
So, is there any way to "force" HP 2510 to somehow recognize my Imac G5? In "about my mac" on USB port, the HP 2510 is visible ....
Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Sven

You may be able to get it to print with something like this:
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
although i do not see taht modle on the "Supported Printers" page. You might look again.
BUT that workabout does not support scanning, only printing.
I think you need to return the printer and look to either Canon or Brother. Brother especially has been better about suporting older Mac OS versions but you'll still need to get a model number and search the maker's site BEFORE buying to see if they show older drivers for download.

    I believe with Crystal Enterprise (or BOE), when you schedule a report you can use the Print Settings to tell CE to print the report immediately (although I have never done this).

  • How to print with a wireless printer with airport extreme

    how to print with a wireless printer with airport extreme

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    Cisco vpn client..
    https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/239113
    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

    Hi,
    You can use Printshare app on your tablet. I believe you have to pay a small amount for it:

  • Dell printer with imac

    Using Dell printer with imac?

    Very questionable, most of them only have drivers for Windows. I'd suggest looking at Printer and scanner software 10.6.x and see if your Dell is on the list. If yes then you're OK, if not time to replace it.

  • Need instruction on how to print with HP Officejet 6210

    this is with a powerbook G4 1.5, OS 10.4.5, and an HP Officejet 6210 with newest drivers (released 8/06).
    I've used an HP PSC950 for years, connected to my AEBS with USB, using Felix's instructions for setting up the foomatic/hpijs driver, always worked great. Once in a while it would go out on me, rarely, and i'd reinstall the driver and it would work again.
    Several months ago, i was trying to print something on Mapquest and i gave too many commands at once and the system got confused and ever since then, it won't print wirelessly, reinstalling the driver didnt' help.
    Also, i'm not sure i'm adapting Felix's instructions to the new OS which doesn't exactly match the instructions.
    Anyway, haven't had wireless printing in months. Finally tonight, i went out and got a new printer, the HP Officejet 6210, first checking and finding it on the compatability list, both Felix's list and HP's list.
    I set it up, it works fine with direct computer/printer USB connection.
    I just don't know how to set up the Mac to print with the 6210. I have the 6210 connected to the AEBS with USB cable. I dont know what else to do.
    I went to an HP page where it gives step by step instructions for USB to Airport instructions.
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=us&docname=c00592751&produc t=421991&dlc=en&lang=en
    Step one and two are OK. Step 3 says:
    "Turn on the printer and verify that the wireless mode is enabled. If you need more information on how to enable the wireless mode, see the User Manual which shipped with the printer."
    I have no clue about how to verify that the wireless mode is enabled. In the index of the 6210 User Manual there is not a word about 'wireless.' The word 'network' isn't in there either. Under 'Connection' it doesn't mention anything about wireless printing. So i'm not really able to do this step.
    I tried to do the other steps but if they are talking about the Airport pull down menu in Step 4, there is no printer listed there. I tried to follow step 5 but it leads nowhere.
    Is there some way to set up the Mac the way i set it up for the foomatic/hpijs driver for the PSC 950, so that i can select 10.0.1.1 in the printer menu and print? I tried going into the set up utility and chose Add and chose internet IPP printing and wanted to choose the HP 6210 driver but it wasn't available. There was an HP 6200 series foomatic/hpijs driver--what does that mean? Am i supposed to use that? I chose that and tried to print from 10.0.1.1 but in Print Jobs it just says "10.0.1.1 is busy, will retry in 30 seconds." In other words, it doesn't work. This is what happened when i tried to get the PSC 950 working again too.
    Anyway, the HP instructions don't have anything to do with any of this. They just say to make sure the wireless mode is on and then go to Safari and choose Bonjour and various other things that when i try them, they aren't available as choices.
    I know that someone on these forums was able to use Bonjour to print with their laptop so it must be possible (with Windows however).
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1494092&#1494092
    Plus HP says they tested the connection with Mac OS and it works. So it must just be a matter of some knowledge i am lacking that would get it working.
    If the printer won't work, i have to return it within 14 days so I need to get on it and try to determine if it will work.
    Could there be a problem with my AEBS, which would explain why i was never able to get my PSC950 to print wirelessly again after that crash on Mapquest?
    Do i need to reinstall the OS?
    I seriously don't think this printer has a wireless mode, otherwise it would be mentioned in the manual. I ran through the menu, tools and preferences (on the printer)--nothing about wireless mode. But why should it need a wireless mode if it's connected by USB cable to the AEBS? Isn't this just a matter of setting up the Mac software to print with Airport?

    i have duplicate posts because when i tried to post the comments on 'question answered', i got a red error message saying i had violated no posting within 30 seconds of the last post. I carefully counted out 30 seconds and then waited some more, but i got the same error when i tried to post it again. so then i clicked on the Reload or Refresh browser button, "are you sure you want to send this page again?" yes. then i tried sending the answer comments again and it posted, a long with two duplicates.
    What ever happened to the Edit and Delete post buttons that used to be available on this site, for a short time after posting?

  • How to print with inverse printing on HP8150

    1)  What do I need to do to enable the HP 6310xi to print wirlessly from my home or work wireless networks?  Will connecting a router to the Ethernet port enable wireless printing, for example?  Or, is there some other solution?  If so, exactly what is it?
    If you have the printer already setup as a USB connection, remove the USB cable at this point and uninstall the printer software from the computer. Connect the printer to your wireless router with an ethernet cable and reinstall the software for the appropriate operating system from the driver download page . During the reinstallation be sure to select Through the network as the connection type when prompted. If you want to print from multiple computers on your network you'll need to install the driver selecting Through the network  on each of them. While the printer does not have wireless capability built in, setting up the printer this way will enable you to print from wireless enabled computers on the same network as the printer. Page 29 of the printer's user guide provides detailed instructions for setting up the printer as a network device.
    2)  I downloaded the HP Cloud printing app for the iPad Air from the Apple Apps store.  The idea is to try to print from the iPad Air to the HP 6310xi via a USB port, for example, eventually wirelessly if at all possible (see #1 above).  However, the app does not work at all.  The Apple people say it is supposed to work, but have no solutions, probably due to lack of technical expertise.
    You cannot print from a mobile device (smartphone, tablet) to the printer via a USB port. To print from a mobile device you will need a WiFi capable printer. If you want to be able to print remotely from a mobile device to a printer i.e. when the device and printer are not connected to the same WiFi network, you will need a web enabled wireless printer. This link is to the current range of HP wireless printers, the majority of which are also web enabled (the ePrint logo will indicate this).
    Hope this information is useful to you.

  • How to print with NO COLOR MANAGEMENT in Photoshop CS6

    Hi,
    I have been trying to print a target from i1Profiler so I can read it with my i1Pro and create a printer profile, but no matter what I do, there is no way to get photoshop from supplying a profile while printing. I tried to select Printer handles color and then put the printer driver in COLOR MANAGEMENT OFF (seemed to me this would disable both the printer managing color and photosbop managing color). Tried printing this way ( and many other ways) but NO SOLUTION --- the prints are EXTREMELY different from the on-screen view (which is in a properly profiled Apple monitor) and they actually look like the ones with a profile chosen.
    I also tried the utility Adobe Color Printer Utility and same results!!
    I am using an EPSON Stylus Pro 7900 that I just purchased.
    Please help

    The key here is to actually actually go ahead and print the target from i1Profiler to your printer...in the Test Chart panel, create the test chart and click on Print instead of Save As. As long as you have the correct page size set in the Page Setup, you should get an accurate printer target to read. Depending on how many patches you have set, it may take a few pages but they will be properly formated for reading with the i1Pro...

  • How to print with HP Jetdirect 175g Print Server

    I am using an old "Snow" Airport base station, which works perfectly well with my MacBook's AirPort card under Snow Leopard. Currently an HP Jetdirect 175g Print Server is plugged into the Airport base station. However, when I press the print server's configuration button, a page is printed out that merely indicates a subnet of 255. But otherwise does not offer an IP address, for use in setting up an Snow Leopard IP printer.
    HP is of absolutely no help here. The print server was originally set up under Tiger, however since upgrading to Snow Leopard it no longer works. I am at a loss as to how to make this connection work that once did under TIger. There is no driver installer listed on HPs site for OS X.
    How do I get this setup working again under Snow Leopard?

    Hi there,
    It's been years since I've worked with a JetDirect print server but at that time I used HP's Web Jetadmin application on Windows 9x. Checking the HP web site there doesn't appear to be a Mac version - still only Windows versions.
    Looking at the HP web site, there appears to be a way to reset the print server and configure the network settings via telnet. Have a look at this document.

  • How to print with a Canon Compact Photo Printer CP-330?

    never found a so hard issue, I'm used to plug&play hardware...
    can anyone help me printing from iPhoto or Photoshop to a Canon Compact Photo Printer CP-330?
    I tried with Canon's drivers, with Gimp 5, anything... one time the printer started working, then stopped after the first pass (yellow color)... frustrating...
    thanks

    Hi there,
    If you have had no luck with the Canon or Gutenprint drivers then you may have a printer problem. Have you been able to print from it using your memory card directly connected?
    If you think/know the printer is okay then I would look at the cups error log to determine why the spool is failing. This log is located in the Console application.
