HP 2200 Printer no longer recognized (10.7)?

I got a new MacBook Pro with 10.7 (updated to 10.7.3 now). I'm running the printer through Airport Express's USB.
It was working fine, but at some point, I'd get the interminable "Finding printer". I could be misremembering though,
and maybe it never worked with 10.7, though I think it did!
(I don't have that problem with a Macbook Pro running 10.6).
So, I tried to deselect the printer driver and re-select. I stupidly deleted the driver (or perhaps just removed it from the Print & Scan window? and now I can't
get it back again (via the HP site). The HP site maintains that the driver comes with 10.6 and I assume the same
works with 10.7 -- is this a correct assumption.
What are my options? Do I have to reinstall something in 10.7 and if so, how do it? 10.7 didn't come on a disk.
Is there a driver on the HP site that'll work that I've somehow overlooked?
Looking for a relatively painless solution if there is one.
Thanks for your time & help!
PS. Here's the link to the HP site:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&obje ctID=c01844302
I also tried to "add a printer" via System Preferences > Print & Scan > + [but I can't add a printer: it doesn't give me any options]

From the HP Printer Driver Support Site for Lion. I'll try again:
Hope this helps

HP8450 Printer No Longer Recognized by Windows

Recently my PC became badly infected. Malwarebytes Antimalware and Spybot Search and Destroy now declare my PC virus free, but I have one artifact of the infection. Control panel as well as my software no longer sees my HP8450 printer. This problem first appeared when I was infected, this did not occur during or after cleaning. HP's online troubleshooter does not solve the problem. Further, I am unable to reinstall the printer; I have the original install CD and when prompted, Windows install wizard doesn't recognize the files on the CD. Trying a version of the software downloaded from HP's website, the install sees the device but cannot complete the install. I can't uninstall the printer because Control Panel doesn't recognize it as being installed. The printer is connected via USB cable and all of my other USB devices (mouse, keyboard, external hard drive) all work as they should. The printer was fully operational before the virus infections (Virtumonde.prx and Win32.TDSS.rtk).
I'm running XP SP2 on a Pentium 4 2.40Ghz CPU with 2GB RAM. I have cable internet, so I run a McAfee firewall.

I had the same problem after my computer got infected (And I am running McAfee with the firewall!). The problem isn't your print driver, the problem is in your Windows operating system. Try to reload or repair Windows from your backup disk (hope you have one). It took three tries before i finally got the trojan eliminated and could reload Windows.

Printer no longer recognized by Extreme Base Station

I have had my Epson Stylus Photo 900 connected to the base station and working for some time. I tried printing to it today and nothing happened. I ran the Printer Setup Utility and I get only two options: one to set up browser and one to set up IP printer, no option to choose Rendezvous and add the printer. If I attach the printer to my iMac I can run Epson utilities on it but can't print to it. I downloaded and reinstalled the printer driver and ran fix permission in the Disk utility. Appreciate your help. Thanks Rich

Networked printer no longer recognized??

I've had the same setup working perfectly for months, I haven't changed a thing.
My internet connection is maintained wirelessly through the airport extreme, to my cable modem, and works fine. Also, I have a printer and an external hard drive connected to my airport extreme through a USB hub plugged directly into the back of it. The last week or so I've been unable to access my printer. I know it is a network issue because I can take the USB cable out of the airport and plug in directly to my macbook and it prints fine, but I can still access my hard drive wirelessly and I'm still connected to the internet. Why would my printer just randomly stop working over the network but everything else that is connected the same way is fully functional??
I've tried power cycling all devices, twice. Running out of patience. Thanks for any help/suggestions.

check the _*Printer Troubleshooting Guide*_ for a possible solution.

One original Intro cartridge no longer recognized by HP Officejet 6500a Plus printer

The original "Intro" Magenta cartridge in my HP 6500a Plus is no longer recognized by the printer.
The other "Intro" color cartridges (cyan and yellow) have a little ink left, and are recognized, along with a non-Intro HP black cartridge.
I didn't use this printer a lot. What would cause just one cartridge to no longer be recognized by the printer?
I can't use this printer at all now because of this. Not even for black-only printing... Not even for scanning!
Edit:
More info: The Magenta cartridge has an expiry of 2013/08, and the other 2 color cartridges have an expiry of 2013/09.
Hmm.. are these cartridges designed to self-destruct about 6 months after expiry, even if they have some useable ink left in them?
In a month or so, will the other 2 quit being recognized as well?
I get:
Ink System has failed (0xc19a0020)
Ink System has failed (0xc19a0022)
See attached pics for cartridge specific messages:
I've done Solution one: Reset the printer.
Done Solution two: Remove, clean, and reinstall the printhead.
Done Solution three: Reset the product (looks like the first solution).
I'm going to but a new Magenta cartridge and see if the problem goes away..

I just discovered the Embedded Web Server on my E710n-z printer. Very cool!
But it shows conflicting information from what the LCD panel shows:
(it shows the printer head as damaged)
And here, it recognizes the Magenta cartridge as empty:
I only printed 132 pages in the lifetime of this printer and the head is gone?

My G5 recently began to act strange. I could no longer print ton any printer. all of my Adobe software would crash on startup as did Safari. tried to reload the printer software and was denied as I was no longer recognized as the administrator. any fixes?

my G5 recently began to act strange. I could no longer print to any printer and all of my Adobe software and Safari would crash on startup. attempted to re-install my printer software, but was denied as the computer no longer recognized me as the administrator even though i am the only account on the computer. Performed a system install (w/ bakup of previous), this seemed to work for about two days and the problem has returned with other software (Excel) crashing on startup. does anyone have any suggestions? do i need to erase the harddrive and start over?

I suggest you backup you important data!
I suspect the harddrive is going bad.
Run disk utility. verify disk & verify permissions.
Run hardware diagnostics.
I not sure of a good way of telling if the harddrive is going bad. There is software to test harddrive. Don't know of free stuff for mac.
Considerng that the hd is 7 plus years old this isn't a surprise.
Suggest replacing hd.
If your not up to that, get an external hd.
You need an external Firewire drive to boot a PowerPC Mac computer [ a few G5's will boot from USB ].
I recommend you do a google search on any external harddrive you are looking at.
I bought a low cost external drive enclosure. When I started having trouble with it, I did a google search and found a lot of complaints about the drive enclosure. I ended up buying a new drive enclosure. On my second go around, I decided to buy a drive enclosure with a good history of working with Macs. The chip set seems to be the key ingredient. The Oxford line of chips seems to be good. I got the Oxford 911.
Has everything interface:
FireWire 800/400 + USB2, + eSATA 'Quad Interface'
save a little money interface:
FireWire 400 + USB 2.0
This web page lists both external harddrive types. You may need to scroll to the right to see both.

After security patch 03/04/2014 OSX 10.7.5, first one, then a second, external backup drive no longer recognized. Diagnostics for the FireWire one displays brand name of unit, but Time Machine and its own app don't see it. Where do I start?

Yesterday I installed the security patch, OSX 10.7.5 to my IMac that is about 2 years old.
Today my Seagate BackupPlus for Mac will power on but is not recognized. It does not show up as a device, Time Machine says the latest backup was DELAYED, last successful at 03/04/2014 9:35 PM (yesterday) and next backup would begin when the disk was connected. An error message I did not save said basically the drive was not recognized.   I did all drive's troubleshooting steps, including installing a newer version of their app. I tried swapping USB for FireWire, changing electrical outlets, etc.
It seems a bit coincidental to have 2 drives "fail" simultaneously. Is anyone else having this issue after this security patch? What would be the approach from the Mac side? TIA for any assistance.
Please see below regarding the second drive. Is this a red herring, or does it help pinpoint where the failure might lie?
I also have a Seagate GoFlex that WAS recognized until I did the troubleshooting on the other drive. When I put it back on after testing the other drive with FireWire, it now is no longer recognized.
Diagnostics says this about that:
FireWire Bus:
Maximum Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
GoFlex Mac:
Manufacturer:          Seagate
Model:          0x6090

Maximum Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
Connection Speed:          Up to 800 Mb/sec
Sub-units:
GoFlex Mac Unit:
Unit Software Version:          0x10483
Unit Spec ID:          0x609E
Firmware Revision:          0x111
Sub-units:
GoFlex Mac SBP-LUN:
Thirdly, in after one of the testing/reboot loops, the HP WiFi printer was no longer recognized, but after a few more it came back.

I have a similar problem.
Moreover, as my external drive is split in 2 for (a) regular storage // (b) time machine usage, I can see in the Finder that I can connect to the (a) regular storage part and use it normally (image 1).
And I cannot connect to the backup part in Finder , nor see it in Disk Utility, nor use it in Time Machine (although it's listed in the Time Machine preferences, image 2), as it does not connect (image 3).
Can somebody help?

My HP 5610V all-in-one is no longer recognized by any pc as a working equipment.

My HP Officejet 5610v All-in-One is no longer recognized by any of my pc's. When I plug it in to another pc it says that the device is not recognized or malfunctioning. All the local or off line functions of the printer, such as copy and fax is working just fine, but it is no longer recognized by the pc as a printer or any functioning device. I change the printer cable already and setup the printer to the original factory settings but no change.

I have XP Pro in one of my laptops and Vista on the other. I really don't think this is a PC or operating system issue because both pc's used to recognize this printer but now both of them say that it is a malfunctioning equipment that is connected to the usb input and it is not recognized at all by the pc as to what type of equipment it is and they recognize other printers immediately.
Thanks for trying to help anyways.

Photosmart 7520 on wireless network no longer recognized by laptop

The printer was fully functional on my wireless network, accessible by phone, tablet & laptop. Now it is not recognized by the laptop but still usable by other devices through the wireless network. The laptop is Windows 7 professional. The laptop and printer are both on the same (only) wireless network. I uninstalled the printer and driver from the laptop, temporarily disabled Norton Antivirus, then tried to install a new driver but installation failed. I repeated the entire process again, with the same results. What else should I try?

Hi @SaMi4,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP Photosmart 7520 that is on a wireless network, is no longer recognized by your laptop. I am sorry to hear about this, but I am happy to help!
I would recommend this printing guide, 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7.
You would also benefit from this guide, Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. As this will help you maintain the connection.
Hope this helps, and have a wonderful day!

Using a epson photo 2200 printer wirelessly

I have an Epson stylus Photo 2200 printer hooked up to my airport. When I go to print photo quality pictures and go to setting to pick the paper the Epson tools 4 unexpectedly quits. Thus leaving me with no choices in paper..... when I hard wired the printer with a USB it worked as it should.... is this a common problem with a work around or is this the way life is with this printer? Thank you for any help.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

My 4th Generation click wheel 40 GB iPod is no longer recognized by iTunes.

Hi There,
The title actually says it all..
(My 4th Generation click wheel 40 GB iPod is no longer recognized by iTunes 7.4.2, although the iPod works fine.. iTunes keeps saying to reset it, but I don't see why I should)
The iPod seems to work just fine, so I'm not in a big hurry to erase all my songs audio books etc..
I am thinking that this is a problem with Macintosh iTunes version 7.4.2, from what I'm seeing, but how should I proceed?
Many thanks for any help.
Eric

Sounds like a dead battery. Take it into your local Apple store/Genius bar and see if there is anything they can do for you. Another option is to send it in to a third party repair company who can replace the battery at a pretty low cost.

IPad no longer recognized by any computer after 4.2.1 update

Hi,
my iPad is no longer recognized by any computer after the 4.2.1 update. It does not show up in iTunes and this even in recovery mode. When connected to charger it does not show that it would charge (but it does). The iPad is still usable except in the iPod app is says "cancelling sync" and does not show any music.
I already reinstalled iTunes, reinstalled the Apple Mobile Device Service, used different computers with different OS version, but it does not show up, not even in the system profiler (USB tab).
Any idea what I should do? I mean it is quite unlikely that there is a hardware issue as the problems appeared right after the 4.2.1 update (from 4.2).
Thanks in advance

Yes I know, I already reset like 100 times. Turned off-on...
I guess a recovery could solve the problem, but how do it if the iPad does not even appear in iTunes. I guess it is somewhat stuck in "cancelling sync" and therefore will not accept an USB connection (the USB port behaves like it is deactivated).

HELP!!! External eSATA no longer recognized by DVR

Hi, I am experiencing a problem with my external WD eSATA harddisk. The setop box was recognizing it perfectly and I was recording programs with no problem. Suddenly the DVR does not show the drive any longer. I tried unplugging and rebooting. Did not fix the issue. I need help: what should I do???

I had the exact same thing happen and you aren't going to like the answer/solution. One day my eSATA just disappeared, the DVR no longer recognized it. I unplugged, rebooted, reset, reconnectedetc. etc. and nothing. So I thought it was a DVR issue , after working with Verizon Customer Care Verizon sent me another 7232. I connected the eSATA to the new 7232, alas still nothing, it was not recognized. Turns out it was not a DVR/FiOS issue, the eSATA went bad (after 12 stinking days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). Western Digital eSATA's are junk. I contacted Western Digital and they sent me a new eSATA (if it is still under warranty they will replace it for free BUT you have to pay all shipping costs), I connected that and it works just fine (but I am holding my breath, it has been 11 days since I connect the new one).
If the eSATA is bad you need to contact that Western Digitial, NOT Verizon. If it is bad it is not a Verizon problem.
And the Verizon In Home Agent is pretty much useless, that did nothing except waste a lot of my time.
