HP Deskjet 3510 wireless & Mac OS=Piece of junk

I recently bought an HP DeskJet 3510 printer and use Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.8 on various computers.  Since opening the box I've had nothing but problems with wireless printing.  The drivers are completely useless and the set up is ridiculous since you can't access anything except via USB or wireless.
This printer seems to always have to HAVE the first IP in your DHCP pool.  If not, your'e out of luck and have to do the set up all over.  Each weekly I have to set the printer up again over and over.  I have been through all of the mediocre Mac install instructions the same results.  It's ashame that this is such BS to set up.

I am not really sure I understand your problem.  You say that you cannot access anything except USB or wireless.  What else did you want to access?
Let's set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') to 250
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway.
- Enter 8.8.8.8 for the first DNS and 8.8.4.4 for the second DNS. This is Google DNS. You can choose another external DNS if you wish.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.

  • Installing HP Deskjet 3510 Wireless Error Message

    I just purchased my HP Deskjet 3510 Wireless Printer today and I'm trying to install it on my Macbook so it will print wirelessly without the USB. I'm getting the follwing error messege and wondering how I can fix this? Any help?

    The only way around it is to use Wireless Direct, but you will have to switch among the different wireless networks with your Mac.
    Follow steps one below to enable Wireless Direct for the printer (which will act like a router):

    Next click the Wifi icon on your Mac, select Show Networks,
    Click on Joind other network and connect to the wireless direct connection,

  • HP Deskjet 3510 Wireless Network Problems after Password Reset

    The password on our wireless router was recently changed, and I have not been able to get my printer working since - this has actually happened before and I WISH I could remember how I fixed it last time, but this time it seems no matter what I try (deleting the printer and any related software, reboot, reinstalling software and hardware), nothing seems to help. I managed to print a wireless network test page and there it tells me that the "WPA security passphrase configured on your HP printer does not match your wireless router setting". Now that much I already know, and the solution makes sense as well, to re-enter the wireless network WPA security passphrase, except I am drawing a blank as to how exactly I am supposed to do that. Oh and I should also mention that unlike last time now the blue wireless control light and the white e-print light on the printer control panel are blinking constantly as soon as the printer is turned on and started up. I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thank you!

  • Connecting Samsung Tab4 and Samsung Aplpha4 to HP Deskjet 3510 wirelessly

    My tablet first connected to my printer for a while, but now it gives me a message, "No Bluetooth available device."I have since replaced my router, but my P.C. prints wirelessly no problem. My Samsung Alpha4 never have been able to connect wirelessly. The message I get is, "Unfortunately Bluetooth has stopped. I have read all the steps and the points to check and still no success. If someone can help me to connect my tablet and my Phone to my printer I would greatly appreciate it. Sincerely,bobZ1

    Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community! Most HP Printers use wifi, not BlueTooth... Routers do not use BlueTooth, they use wifi.  I would suggest you turn off BlueTooth in the tablet and turn on wifi. View this link for info on how to connect:  http://www.hp.com/go/mobileprinting/ WyreNut  

  • HP 3510 all-in-one won't connect to wireless - MAC filter

    I'm trying to set up my HP Deskjet 3510 e-all-in-one, but every time it tries to connect to my wireless, it fails and gives me an error saying it may be due to the MAC filtering on my router.. but there is no MAC filtering on my router! I even added it to the approved devices just in case. If I try to just set it up via USB, the software doesn't always respond to the fact that I've plugged my printer into my laptop. I'm on Windows Vista. TRIED the solution of unplugging everything, restarting everything, turning things off and on again, etc., the error never changes but I have seen for myself and had the internet company confirm that there isn't any MAC filtering on my router.

    Hi,
    Please enter your wireless router configuration and check what security type is configured.
    May it set as WEP security?
    If so, ensure the authentication type is set as Open or Auto, then try connecting the printer again.. HP printers does not support the Shared Authentication type..
    Otherwise please clarify what security type is configured.

  • Deskjet 3510 will not scan wirelessly on OS 10.9

    I have a Deskjet 3510 that worked great wirelessly on my old Mac with Snow Leopard. I recently purchased a new IMac with Mavericks OS 10.9.5. The printer will print wirelessly but not scan wirelessly. It will only scan with the USB cable attached. I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest HP software. When I disconnect the USB it says the wireless connection cannot be found. I reset the wireless connection and it is good. What am I missing here?
    This question was solved.

    Thanks very much for your help with this. I followed your steps and it is now working. The main problem I saw was that the default setting was "airprint" which kept coming up each time. Needed to be changed to Bonjour. Even when I deleted the printer and then added it back in as you suggested, "airprint" as the Kind kept coming up. Once I changed it, all was good. Thanks again.

  • HT1444 I just bought an HP deskjet 3510 printer. I have a MAC OX X 10.5.8. I can't install it unless it is version 6. Any suggestions as to what I can do?

    I just bought an HP deskjet 3510 printr and I can't install it.  It tells me I have to have MAC OX S version 6.  How can I upgrade to this version?

    Found a way to utilize the HP Deskjet 3510 with the MacBook OSX 10.5.8!
    As you may know, there is NO existing HP printer driver useable between this printer and the OSX10.5.8 (you need OSX 10.6 or higher)  However, it IS possible to use the printer and even print from it - however, it is a bit complicated.  Read the PROS vs. CONS and see if you want to proceed OR...if you can, return it and get your money back.  Unfortunately for me I didn't have this option - if I returned it, I will lose 55% of what I paid for return shipping and restocking! .
    PROS: You can print documents, photos, files, etc.
    CONS: You can't print it directly as you would a normal printer. It will not work either with USB or via wireless. It must be sent as a document via e-mail (more explained later!)
    PROS: Copy/Scan-To-Print function works without needing a driver installed. 
    CONS: Scan-To-Computer function will not work because there is no driver compatible.
    PROS: Documents sent to you via email (on a personalized HP email address) will be printed out automatically when received.  You don't even have to be there to receive the email!
    CONS:  It WILL print automatically.  You can turn off this function but you will have to remember to turn it on everytime you need to print.
    OKAY.  Here it goes.  This model of HP Printer (Deskjet 3510) has a function called ePrint (you can find more info at http://www.hp.com/global/us/en/eprint/). Basically it is a wireless function on the printer that as long as you have Wifi at your home or business, you can connect this printer virtually.  This ePrint works with any computing devises, including MacBooks, Mac Desktops, iPhone, iPad, and iPad Mini - it will NOT work with iPods or any devise that does not have internet/wifi capability.
    This is what you need to do: Set up the Deskjet 3510 as if you would any other printer. That means, remove it from the box, unpack it, plug it in, follow instructions on the mini-screen (for date, language, etc), install cartridge, print test sheets, scan test sheet, etc.  Make sure that the machine actually works!
    Then comes the tricky part:  You will notice three buttons on the bottom.  Left one is the Power Button.  Right side has two buttons: first is the Wifi button, second is the ePrint button.  Before ePrint can be set up, you need to set up the printer for Wifi.
    CLICK on the Wifi Button (a flashing blue light) and look on the bottm left.  There is a menu section with 'Settings" - CLICK the button left of that menu (above the power button) you will see the wireless menu.  Make sure the Wireless is "On" and Wireless Direct also "On".  Use the arrows on the right of the screen to go up and down the menu, "OK" button to select it.
    At that same menu, scroll down to "Print Report" and click "OK".  Select the second option "Configuration Page" and print out the page.  If everything went smoothly with the Wifi connection, you will be able to see information.  Look for the URL(s) for Embedded Web Server on the page, either on the top by the General Information or under Wireless Direct.  You need the Server address for the next step.  Mine looked like this:
    http://192.168.223.1  (last four digits of yours may differ)
    Go up to your Airport Wifi menu and look for something like "HP-Print-44-Deskjet 3510 series".  Select that from the Wifi menu (from this point, you will NOT be on the internet).  Once you see the Wifi signal pop in, on the address bar of your web browser, type in your Server address in the address bar (http://192.168....).
    Then you will see a web page of inner workings of your computer.  It's quite amazing actually!
    Look for a section that shows Wireless Setup Wizard and follow to make sure you're set up to your network and connected to the internet.  Choose your wireless network name, put the password in. It should connect to your network.  Do the same for the ePrint section.
    Switch back to your Wifi network (via Airport so you would have internet access), go to https://h30495.www3.hp.com/c/46324/US/en/ to set up your printer with HP for ePrint.  This is where you get that private email address at HP (you can personalize it as well) so that any device that can email you can send documents, photos and files to be printed directly.
    SO the trick to printing with a MacBook OSX 10.5.8 with the HP Deskjet 3510 is this: Once you set up your private email address (let's say it's [email protected]) you can send attachments via email as if you were writing yourself (both the email AND the attachment will print!) or when you are about to print a file or a photo, select from the Print menu, the PDF section where you have an option to Mail PDF.  It will connect with Mail Program, send it to [email protected] (or whatever your private email name is : **********@hpeprint.com) and it will print the file without printing an email header.
    PRINTING NOTE: If you are printing a photo, you can set your presets to Photo print so that it will come out nice.  If you happened to be by your computer during the printout, you can install the photo paper (flush it to the right side) or else it will just print on normal paper.
    NOTE:If at any step the printer won't recognize the Wifi connection or ePrint, turn off the printer, count 30 seconds and restart it.  Mine worked fine after that!
    Whew~! Hope this was clear and was helpful!  Best wishes!

  • I have HP Deskjet 3510 connected wireless - problem is that it wants to print only black and white - is there a color button I am missing?  The print quality report is fine in color etc.

    I have a HP Deskjet 3510 and it wants to print only in black and white. 
    The Print Quality Report is fine and in color.
    Is there a color button I am missing?

    In the Print & Scan system preferences, does it indicate it is using a generic printer driver or a Gutenprint driver?
    Also, if you click on Options & Supplies, you might want to check and see if has to be enabled. That kind of sounds odd though.
    Another thing is it might not be showing. If the bottom of the print dialog has a button that says "Show Details," click it. Then, you can change settings in the popup menu.

  • Deskjet 3510 series [C1181] software?

    Hi everyone, I have been having a problem with my printer; HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 3515 especially with the scanning and wireless printing. So today I opted to uninstall the software and reinstall the software from the internet. All was going well until I reached a point where I was to add the printer as the default one and it was to get the software for a "HP Deskjet 3510 [C1181] series" for which the error message was that it could not be found. I unfortunately cannot find the installation CD and as such cannot install manually. Any chance I can get this software through some link?

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless, Mac OS 10.7.2 can't get it set up to run wireless

    I have an iMac, OS 10.7.2, Airport Extreme router, and an HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless.  I recently replaced my router with an Airport Extreme.  My printer setup CD is for OS 10.4 or 10.5.  I'm trying to setup the 8000 wirelessly but without much luck.  As I understand it, the HP 8000 setup is now included in OS 10.7.  I followed some of the items from another post on this topic with OS 10.6.  Somehow I can't seem to get to the place were the printer install asks me to choose a network.  I have updated all of the software, setup a printer connected with a USB cable.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I figured this out (with some help from the Print Doc on "Is there driver for Deskjet 3050 for Mac OSX 10.7).  Once I stopped thinking like the Mac OS 10.6 approach with an hp utility things were easy.
    - delete any previously set up printers
    - scrub the old hp software
    - remove the usb cable from the printer if you have one connected
    - reset the printer network to hpsetup (press power button, network button 2x, cancel 3x, release power)
    - print out the wireless network test report (press network button and update button 2x). verify ssid is hsetup
    - change the mac wireless network to hpsetup
    - go to the sys pref > print scan
    - add the 8000 printer
    - click on the options and supplies and go to the printer webpage
    - use the network wizard and change the network from hpsetup to your network
    - finish
    - go back to the sys prefs and change the network to your network
    - go to the printer and print out the wireless network test report (press network button and update button 2x).  Check that the SSID is your network
    - try printing something to your printer.  It might take a little time the first print.

  • Error message 0x02b7c2ed when updating HP Deskjet 3510

    I just purchased a HP Deskjet 3510 and got through the setup and installation fine. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and am trying to use this printer wirelessly. I connected the printer to my wireless modem through my desktop and it said it connected successfully. When I try to use the eprint feature on the printer, it says that it needs to update. It then proceeds to download the update and then it says please wait. It stays on that screen for a couple of minutes and then returns this error: Error Code 0x02b7c2ed SM Module C. The power button flashes and that is the only button that will respond. When pressed, it automatically restarts the printer and says that the update was not successful. I don't know if it is relevant or not but it is currently hooked up through usb. I am waiting on my wireless adapter to come in a few days. I am concerned with this error message and need to know how to fix it or if I need to get a replacement. Thank you in advance.

  • How do I remove my HP DeskJet 3510 from my network?

    I recently had to get a new router. I am now connecting my printer (HP DeskJet 3510). I have it connected successfully to my laptop, but a problem appeared after doing so. If I look at my "network connections" at the bottom right of my screen, it shows that my printer is its own unsecured wireless connection. This never happened before with the old router. What did I do wrong and how can I remove the printer from the network? Any help an assistance in this problem will be greatly appreciated!!!

    HI @sparkyIN74 ,
    I see that you are trying to setup the printer on the new router, but right now the printer isn't showing any secured wireless connection. I can help you.
    Most likely it is connected to the Wireless Direct and not your network.
    Restore the printer defaults. Go to Setup, Wireless Menu, Restore Defaults.
    Connect the USB cable from the printer to the computer. This is just temporarily to configure the wireless.
    I have provided a document with the steps for setting up the printer over the network.
    Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection.
    Select your operating system, then start at step 4 and in part c, select Convert a USB connected printer to wireless.
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!
