How to set up windows 8 to print to printer that is attached to an airport extreme?

Hello,
Please advise what is the best way to setup my daughters new windows 8 desktop to print to a printer attached to an airport extreme.
I used Bonquir to add the printer but nothing happens when I print something. It does not even register in the print que.
I obviously am missing something....
on a second question.
i most often could print from my powerbook... yeah it still works but occationally I have to delete the printer and reinstall it in the priner section of the powerbook.
Please advise what I need to do to make the connection more stable.... it does that once a month or so...
Thank you

Can windows actually see the printer.
Is it detected and setup ok in windows?
Can you ping the AE? Firewall issues can prevent the print job being processed even if the printer was made available.
How old is this extreme and what firmware?
DId you use correct SMB naming?
If it is Gen1-5 then use the airport utility in windows and you should then be able to see if the printer is actually working from the utility. Printer is no longer even a tab on the new version utility in a Mac.

    The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
    If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

  • How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?

    How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?
    I have an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme and I can access it just fine through Finder.  I would like to be able to keyboard navigate to it in an efficient manner.  I tried to use the "Go to the folder" feature but was unable to.
    I had tried dragging the drive to the Network folder but the shortcut it created does not lead to the drive's contents...it seems to lead right back to the parent directory:
    I hope I explained the question well.  Thank you for all of your help and time in tending to my inquiry.

    Cant you set up "back to my mac" then go to finder preferences and put a check mark under everything under the shared location. Also set up back to my mac on your airport extreme.

  • Windows can't find harddisk (connected through usb-hub to airport extreme) although airport utility can

    windows can't find harddisk (connected through usb-hub to airport extreme) although airport utility can

    There are a number of posts related to copying issues between Windows Vista / 7 and AirPort Disks. Two potential solutions being forwarded are: 1) Changing the LAN Manager authentication level, and/or 2) Disabling the Windows Search feature.
     To change the LAN Manager authentication level:
    From the Windows Vista / 7 desktop, click Start
    Search for: security
    Click 'Local Security Policy'
    Goto Local Policies > Security Options
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: LAN Manager authentication level'
    Change level to: Send LM & NTLM responses
    Under Policy, double-click 'Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including RPC) clients'
    De-select 'Require 128-bit encryption'
    Click OK
     To disable Windows Search:
    Start > Control Panel > Programs > Programs & Features
    On the right-hand side, click "Turn Windows features on/off"
    Scroll down, and de-select "Windows Search".
    Press OK, close all windows and restart.
     A third "solution," that has worked for me, is verify that both the AirPort base station and the Win7 PC are using the exact same Workgroup Name. In my case, I use "WORKGROUP" (without the quote marks) for this name. From the AirPort Utility, you would enter this value on the Disks > File Sharing tab. On Win7, Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System > Change Settings > Change > Workgroup

  • How to set my windows to open at their default size every time.

    Use DW's OpenBrowser Window behavior.
    > Is that database related?
    The pop up window is not, but the processing of the login is
    likely to be.

  • How to set two Star's TSP100 receipt printer on the same mac ?

    Hello
    For my restaurant I use a FileMaker homemade software that can use two ticket printers of the same type (Star's TSP100 receipt printer).
    One is set as "Kitchen" in the underground kitchen and the other as "Desk" in the main floor.
    Software must prints orders for kitchen on the correct printer and other receipts on the other printer. It uses Applescripts command to switch printer before printing.
    Sometimes the two printers are switched and reports are printed on the bad printers.
    Software is working correctly, orders for kitchen are always printed on the same printer and other receipts are also printed on the other printer. When printers switch, the kitchen receive receipts for desk and orders for kitchen are printed on the desk printer.
    How can I fix the two printers to be sure that every orders and receipt are printed on the correct printer.
    Thanks for your help

    Let me first say I have never tried to do that...
    I believe this is completely about the driver. 1 driver can only correctly identify one printer in print & scan prefs. I think you need separate drivers and separate ways to identify each printer.  Like - another copy of the driver with different named file(s); and a printer utility that allows you to change printer name.
    For Epsons the USB setup includes the Serial number - which allows the driver to differentiate. Does your driver do that? Maybe there is an alternate driver you can use for one of the printers?  Check out the free Gutenprint driver.  Search for gutenprint mac.

  • How to set Terminal window title?

  • How to set the window frame icon of javafx.scene.control.Alert ?

    Hi,
    I am looking into using the new Java 8u40 Alert Dialogs (javafx.scene.control.Alert) and I am struggling with setting custom (application) icons for the window / stage.
    I mean that icon, which appears in the upper left corner (on Windows OS) of the window frame, which you can set for normal stages with
    javafx.stage.Stage.getIcons()
    Similarily I want to apply a custom stylesheet to the Alert.
    How can I do this?
    Is it really only this way?
    ((Stage)alert.getDialogPane().getScene().getWindow()).getIcons().add(...) ?

    I think you already have the recommended way to set an icon for Java 8u40.  Maybe some future Java version might add some additional API to make it a little bit less clunky, but for now, just go with the same code you have:
    ((Stage)alert.getDialogPane().getScene().getWindow()).getIcons().add(...) ?
    It is the same technique used in:
      javafx - How do you set the icon of a Dialog control Java FX/Java 8 - Stack Overflow
    and in makery's dialog tutorial:

  • How to set browser window title from FPM ?

    How do I set brwoser window title at runtime in FPM ?
    Using IDR area objetc I can set only apllication are(ident area) title, not the browser window title. Browser window title is set statically from iView name of in portal, and PFCG contect if in NWBC client.
    But in my case, I want to set it at runtime, for eg. in case of Purchase Order window, I want to set it as 'Purchase Order:<PO number>
    Is there any API to set this?
    Thanks again,

    When you call it as external window you may pass the title. other than that i am afraid you are left with no choice.

  • How to set up Windows with Reader and certificate for all users

    Good afternoon (GMT),
    we're dealing with a Win XP (SP3) system that is set up by an Administrator. One task is to set up the system in a way that all users (w/o admin rights) become able to read a certified-protected PDF. Currently we know a way to install the "public key" for this certificate only for one known user. But how to proceed when not all users are known? The users shall later on never be asked to confirm the certification installation/registration.
    If it helps, here is the software version:
    Acrobat 8.12 to encrypt the PDF via certification. In near future I will switch to Acrobat 9.x
    Reader 7.x and/or 8.x on customer PCs.
    Thank you for ideas and hints.
    BTW: Next time we want to provide a solution for Win7 systems, too.

    Hi,
    Based on your desccription, I'm afraid that it is not the correct forum since this forum is to discuss the VS IDE.
    If you want to achieve it in code, I suggest you post this issue to the specific language development forum like C#, VB or others.

  • How to set up Epson 4540 to air print

    How do I se up my Epson 4540 printer to accept iPad command to print?

    Check with Epson support for an updated printer driver that you can download and install that will enable AirPrint.
    A new driver was made available by Epson just a few weeks ago. Even you bought the printer new recently, it likely does not have the latest printer driver installed.

  • I need to know how to set proxy exception list on remote pcs that are not on a domain controller

    I currently manage approx 1,800 computers on a vpn network. They are not part of any AD. There are mixed service packs of XP mostly SP2 and SP3. They all access the internet via a proxy server. They are all running either IE6 (not many left) or IE8. I have
    wrote a script to change the proxy exception list but not all of them have worked I have changed the following reg keys [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings] & [HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
    Settings] & [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]. It seems in the ones that have not changed, the local SID account is the one in use and this has not changed because of its uniqueness. Is there a way either
    scripting or a commercial package that I can use to write keys to ALL users. I'm not sure on the details of how to use local policy to set this or how I would be able to write a script that would import the settings from a text file or something. Can anyone
    help with this matter.
    Thanks

    Well that is certainly not an easy task.
    .Default is not the default user account. I do not recommend making changes there. HKLM is for the local machine which is probably your best bet for all users but if it is not propagating through that then it would have to be the current user since they
    are not logged into a domain.
    There is a way to update all the HKCU and there is a walk through here:
    http://micksmix.wordpress.com/2012/01/13/update-a-registry-key-for-all-users-on-a-system/
    Making this management simple I'd suggest joining a domain and using GPO but I understand if it is not an option.
