I would like to add my Deskjet F4480 printer to my home wireless network. How can this done?

I have a Linksys wireless router that is the hub of my home wireless network. I have been successful in adding a HP OfficeJet 6500 All-in-one Printer an old HP DeskJet 890C that I purchased in 1997 with a computer running Windows 95. The HP 890C has been my tireless workhorse throughout my two kids K-12 school as well as printing reams of paper during my MBA...and guess what: it still works. However, my daughter has just returned home from college and she has a HP DeskJet F4480 printer/scanner that she would like to add it to the home network. I have been researching the problem, but haven't been successful in finding out if this printer is compatible to add to a wireless network. Or simply, will a 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter suffice? I am also adding a new Windows 7 laptop in the network, that will need to print to this F4480. I patiently await the forum's response.

My mistake, it seems that price was a deciding factor when I purchased the F4480 in lieu of a more expensive wireless ready printer-scanner. I will eventually come-up with a solution as I did with the 890C where I have a wireless print server connected directly to the printer serial connection. It seems that backward compatible is still evident, but I am having some problems coming up with the long-lasting HP49 and HP23 tri-color ink packs.
Here is the rub; I don't replace technology because it is out-dated. I upgrade and or repair everything myself. I found warranties not worth the paper their written on and in most cases, the technical support was lacking. My Win95 desktop went thru several major components until I found that it was becoming harder to find software to run with it. I finally replaced it in 2007. Now it seems that there has been a paradigm shift toward utilities that are very hungry for memory, and even if I didn't want to, I am forced to come over to the dark side with a device that has a minimum of 8GB of RAM.

Deskjet F4480: what causes horizontal gaps when printing from the web?

I just installed a Deskjet F4480 printer. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit. Printing a word-processing document works just fine - no problems. Printing from a web page, however, produces horizontal streaks or gaps in the print. The bottom of some lines is clipped off. How can I correct this?

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the suggestion, I tried USB, Ethernet and FAXing in a document. All three print with the horizontal gaps. The funny thing is that the copy (both color and blk/white) print out just fine. I've run the available maintance functions serveral times, with no improvements. I wound up purchasing another Canon Printer, because of being a need to print bind. But would still like to get this one working, as I was very statisfied with it.
Thanks, Roman...

Deskjet f4480 freezes during cleaning print heads

I have a Deskjet F4480. When I try to clean the printheads the printer freezes in the middle. it starts printing the letters in black and eventually spits out the half printed sheet but the power light still blinks. I need to clean the color cartrdige and this isn't helpful if it stops before getting to the color.

Hi scarlyle,
Are there any other lights that are on or blinking, or is it only the power light that is on and blinking?
What are the estimated ink levels for each cartridge according to the printer?
Are you able to send print jobs to the printer?
Are you able to make photocopies?

Printer Deskjet F4480 not working

Hi,last year I bought a desk jet F4480 printer never work for me but scanner is fine. I have tried the troble shooting but still not printing.
Anannya.

Does the printer make copies correctly? Will the printer properly print a self test? (Turn the printer on, then press and hold the power button and the Cancel button for 10 seconds.) What is your operating system? How is the printer connected? Were the drivers properly installed? Are there any error messages?
The HP Print Diagnostic Utility from http://www.hp.com/go/tools may help.

HP Deskjet F4480 Unable to Scan in 10.6

After updating to 10.6, my Deskjet F4480 can no longer be used as a scanner. I have tried re-installing the full driver and software provided by HP, which claims to include updated support for 10.6; when I then try to use HP Scan, it tells me no scanner is found. When I completely uninstall the HP software and use the driver provided via Software Update, then try to scan through the Print & Fax panel in System Preferences (or via Preview) I get a failed to initiate session message. This is ridiculous. Does anyone have a fix for this problem?
Thank you.

Thanks for the response, but I've tried updating the TWAIN driver and scanner driver with no luck. Since it works with every other program I've tried (except for Acrobat), I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the settings in Acrobat 6/7. I've also updated with all of the service packs as well.

HP Deskjet F4480 Not Working With My iMac

Hello Everyone,
I am currently running Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and i have just bought a new HP Deskjet F4480 and set up up this morning and i am unable to install it and get printing on it. Basically i ran the installer for the first time and i go to Select Device and my printer was connected via USB to my iMac and the HP Installer window didn't pick it up so i checked the box that said My device is not listed then it took me to the Model page and it showed my printer device name there so i selected it and then hit the Continue button.
I fully went throughout the installer and installed all the HP Programs until i got to the Setup tab on the Installer i clicked Continue then it said Searching for your device, a table came up and my printer wasn't anywhere to be seen i had check it was plugged in and the USB was fully connected so i proceeded by clicking the My Device Is Not Listed check box. Once i clicked it my printer came up and then i clicked it and pressed Continue.
I received a message saying If Your Device is Not Listed, It is not supported by this installer blah blah blah and then i clicked the Quit button i have tried many options that i have heard such as going to Library>Printers and delete the HP folder i have tried that then i ran the Software Update but no lucky.
I have also went into Printers & Fax and the Deskjet F4480 is no where in there and i have check that the USB is fully connected and the power is on. I have ran out of ideas and i'm stuck, it would be great is any of you guys could assist me as i'm running a business and printing is a must.
Cheers, Sean

I know that this might sound very obvious - but a friend of mine had the same problem that you describe and called me in for a consult. I discovered that the power cord for the printer was not plugged in snugly - this prevented the printer from being turned-on and online. If this occurs the computer can not recognize that the printer is connected to the USB.

Hi Alf2014,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums.
Based on what I understand, it seems like you are encountering challenges while setting the printer up.
First off lets make sure that we have completely uninstalled the Printer Software by following the instructions found in this link.
Once done, proceed to this page and pick the link that best describes your setup (since your Operating System was not provided).
If the above mentioned steps does not work, please post the exact error message together with your computer's Operating system.

Deskjet F4480 ink cartridge

I made a bad mistake and purchased the wrong ink cartridge for my printer. I purchased a 901XL and it should have been a 60XL. Physically they look the same, everything. will the 901 work in my printer? Thinking I had the right one, I opened the 901 and $40 is a lot to waste. Your help is much appreciated.

Hi there texas1papa,
Welcome to the Forums
I saw your post about wanting information about compatible ink cartridges for your Deskjet F4480. I have found the specifications for you below. Unfortunately, the 901 cartridges are not compatible with your unit.
