HP Laserjet 4V Printer will not connect to TC

Under the print and fax preferences the 4V is visible in default and appletalk. However, when I try to add it the operation to connect "timed out".
I've chosen "auto select" and the 4V driver under the print using dialog.
It seems obvious the TC knows it's there but it just can't connect to it. My AE never had this issue.
Any ideas? Thanks.

What office jet model? Have you tried this from the front of the printer:
Setup > Network > Restore Network Defaults ?
After that, run the Wireless Setup Wizard from the same Network menu.

Wireless Printer Will Not Connect To Any Machine

Okay so just want to start out saying any help is appreciated, haven't used a forum before so hoping for any answers.
I have a HP Photosmart 5510 All in One B111a printer
Trying to connect to 2 laptops 1 Win7 64 bit - 1 Windows XP Professional SP2
I have had the printer for around a month - Set it up on my Win7 laptop no problem, needed to connect to the Win XP laptop, and after turning it on it will not connect to either randomly
It seems so far that the printer is connected to the network according to what it says, and both laptops install the software okay but when searching for the printer neither can find it, it then resorts to searching via IP where it still cannot find it.
So far I have attempted to reset defaults on printer, reset network defaults on printer, change the IP address, update the IP address, reinstall the software, reinstall the driver, install the full feature installation package, the network diag tool, it cannot seem to find the printer at all even though on the printer screen it states it's connected to the network fine.
It works fine through a cable and at one point i made a WPS connection via my Win7 laptop but couldn't really figure out what to do next and if it would help my situation so disconnected.
I don't know whether this is down to some stupid mistake I've made/something basic I've missed (it's my first printer) or an actual problem
Please help!

Hp Laserjet 1012 Printer will not print

All of a sudden, my printer will not work. Maybe it has to do with the new Canon scanner I just bought and installed(?).
Anyways, did the usual (deleted all printers, downloaded and installed updated driver, added printer (verified on System Profiler), rebooted both Mac and Printer but no go.
Attempts to print then after 15 seconds or so "stops" in the queue.
I'm stumped because I can get the printer to work on my other Mac.
In advance, thanks for your input.
Stephen

I would take a reconditioned product over a new replacement any day. The reconditioned product has been verified to have a problem, taken apart by a technician, verified the defective part, replaced defective part (which will never fail again) and put back together and tested more extensively than a new unit. New unit... put together by an assembly person, press self test and ship it out.

H-P Laserjet 4L printer will not print with Windows 7 operating system. Need help

I have an H-P Laserjet 4L printer that worked fine with a Dell PC and Windows XP. But, it no longer worked when the PC was updated to Windows7. I was advised to buy an adapter that would accept the H-P plug and connect to the PC by means of a USB port. I did that, but the H-P still will not print. Anyone know what to do about this problem?

Printer will not connect wirelessly / HP installer network ui plugin has stopped

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling my Photosmart software multiple times in an effort to connect the printer to my wireless network (WEP). Each time I try, the software installs but will not allow me to connect the printer to my wireless network. I've installed with my firewall off and on, but nothing works.
I continue to get an error that says "HP Installer Network UI Plugin has stopped". It will connect via USB cable, but that's not what I'm hoping to do.
Advice? Questions?

Hi there @csm25
Welcome to the HP forums!
After noticing your post about the error "HP Installer Network UI Plugin has stopped" you are seeing when attempting to install your Photosmart B209a model wireless, I searched the community to see what I could find. I came up with the following link and troubleshooting steps from the user SAbboushi , that seemed to resolve the problem.

HP PHOTOSMART 5524 SERIES PRINTER WILL NOT CONNECT WIRELESSLY/COMMUNICATE WITH LAPTOP. PLEASE HELP.

I am really hoping that someone can help me resolve a serious issue with a new printer.
I have tried every diagnostic tool including the HP print & scan doctor and my printer still doesn't seem to connect to my laptop or print.
Although it does print test pages and reports and it also prints directly from my Android phone.
I purchased the printer from ebay and the printer installtion/driver disc was not included. The printer connected to my Sky network immediately, the blue light/dot was solid and it stated on the printer's display 'Connected - and the IP address/MAC details etc'..........
However, when I try to print from my laptop, it won't print - no error message, nothing so I can't figure out what the problem is.
I went to the HP website and d/loaded the driver for my operating system [Windows Vista 32 bit] and when that failed I tried the Basic HP printer driver and that failed also. I then un-installed and reinstalled the drivers & associated software again and also tried the 'add printer wizard' in Windows.
As a last resort, I disabled my firewall and anti-virus software [temporarily] to ensure that was not preventing my laptop from recognising the printer still no joy!
I have tried every workaround I can think of [and I am not particularly computer proficient] and I am truly out of options and ideas of how to get this to work. When I have finished installting the drivers sometimes a dialoge box pops up on the bottom right hand corner [where the icons are] saying 'HP Photosmart ready to use' but I go to print a document either microsoft word or directly from the internet and it still will not print.
This is getting extremely frustrating and annoying. I have spent hour upon hour trying everything I can think of, but it still won't work.
Please help find a solution. Thank you.

Hello flammingstar,
Thank you for the information. At this point because the print will print from your Android phone, scans, and copies. This shows that the printer itself is not the issue.
The error messages 0x0000643 and 0x0000057, when do you get these errors? Are they on the printer, or the computer?
I would suggest trying to stop, and start the printer spooler. Please follow the steps below.
1. Click Start
2. Type "services" (without quotes) in the search field
3. Open Services
4. At bottom of the page click "Extended View"
5. Click in a service in the list,
6. Press the letter "P" on your keyboard
7. Search for Print Spooler
8. Right-click on it, and choose Properties
9. Select Automatic in the drop down box
10. In that Properties window you will see buttons for Start, and Stop, please click on Stop, and then click on Start.
Try printing again from your computer. Are you able to print a full page?
Looking forward to your response.

Photosmart printer will not connect to network, unable to set IP Address Manually

My Photosmart printer has worked fine for a long time but it now refuses to connect to the network. It is wired into the router and I have changed the lead and this shows no chnage. The Printer network set-up shows an IP address of 0.0.0.0 in manual mode and if I reset this and press OK it immediately reverts to 0.0.0.0. I've also tried putting the printer into Automatic IP address but it still fails. Subnet Mask and Default Gateway also show as 0.0.0.0. I can reset the Subnet Mask and Gateway to the correct levels but as soon as I go back to set the IP address they revert to 0.0.0.0. The printer will work from a USB connection but it will then not share correctly. Is it possible to reboot the onboard program?

Oh, an ISP-supplied router. Uggh.
OK, remove the phone (DSL) cord from the back of the router. Cycle power on the router, then attach the printer with the phone cord disconnected.
Now, 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). You can find the DHCP range of the router using its internal settings page or in its manual. Use the CD that came with your router or type the router's IP address (ends in .1) into a browser.
- 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 and first DNS. Leave the second one blank.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

Installed ML printer will not connect

I keep getting "Printer not connected" message.

Hello Manuel,
I think you will need to give us a little more information so we can help.
     What printer is it?
     Did you update its driver?
     What things did you try to get it to work such as
          deleting then readding the printer from your Print and Scan preference pane?
Any addition information will likely get you a better answer.

Printer will not connect to new BT Home Hub 5

Hello all
I have just received a new BT home hub 5. I am using an Apple Mac Pro which has connected fine to the new home hub but my printer won't connect via wireless. The printer advises me to "Press WPS button on router to connect" which I am doing; the printer then tries to connect but comes back with an error after 2 minutes saying "WPS error. Press ok to retry".
(Note: I previously had a BT home hub 3 which was connected successfully to the same printer).
I would appreciate any advice as this is driving me mad trying to get it to recognise the new router. (I am unable to manually select the network and input the pass key as there is no option in the LED window to choose network.)

Hi @RuthKJ
Instead of using the WPS method to connect the printer to your new router let's try the following steps;
I use this method for iPads, iPhones and other devices that do not have software.
Restore the network defaults on the printer by pushing the wireless button, going to settings, and then restore defaults. The wireless button should then start flashing, this means it is now in autowireless mode.
Connect to the network that the printer is broadcasting. It is usually HP-setup-3050a and then part of the MAC address. The wireless light will still be flashing on the printer at this point, this is normal since this is not an actual adhoc connection.
Load up the Embedded Web Server (EWS) in the browser on your mobile device. The default IP for autowireless is 192.168.223.1.
Go to the network tab along the top of the EWS.
Click on Wireless Setup Wizard along the left hand side to begin configuring the printer.
You have now completed the Wireless configuration, follow the next 3 steps to start printing.
The blue wireless light will go solid, put the Mac back on your own network.
Add the printer to the System Preferences.

Printer will not connect

Whenever I try to print something over our wirelessly connected printer, I get an error in the automatic HP Photosmart app that says "Looking for printer. Printer not connected." It knows which printer it should be printing to, as it lists the correct name. At the printer, I connect it to the wireless and nothing goes wrong. So basically it says it is connected but the computer cannot find it. Another less-important problem is that I cannot scan from the printer, I have to remotely scan from the computer. We have had this printer for at least six months, and there has never been a problem.
The printer is a HP Photosmart 5520.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello snp46,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that you have two different issues with your Photosmart 5520. The first one is the printer is unable to maintain its wireless connection. The second is you are unable to scan from the front panel of the printer to your computer.
For the first issue, I’ve included the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection document. It has steps to take to resolve this issue. It has a section for Windows and one for Mac OS X.
For the second issue, I’ve added the A 'Computer Not Found' or 'Connection Error' Message Displays When Attempting to Scan from the Print... document. It has a section dedicated to each of the supported operating systems, however if you are using Mac OS X 10.8 or Mac OS X 10.9 please follow the instructions for Mac OS X 10.7.

the modem is a UBEE DDW366

Temporarily remove and disable all security on the router. Now try to connect to your unsecured SSID. Are you successful? If yes, go back and add WPA2-AES with your password and try to connect again.

I recently changed the password for my home network and now my MP495 printer will not connect.

Hi, First time caller, long time listener............
I am running Win 7 on all of the pcs in the house with an Android or two as well. I had to change the pw for my linksys router this past weekend and I noticed today that I can not get on as the "printer is offline". I have done the obvious cycling of pcs , router and printer. I have also tried checking / unchecking the use printer offline. Do I need to redownload the drivers and attach the printer by usb and reinstall it? Its been a while since I installed it and I can't remember if it needed a password to connect or not.
Thank you, I appreciate your time.

Hi Trilo,
Since you changed the password to your wireless router, you will need to reinstall the drivers on your computer to reconnect the printer to your network. Prior to reinstalling, you will want to ensure that the wireless LAN setting on the printer is enabled. To do this, press the Maintenance button on the printer (looks like a pair of pliers and a screwdriver) repeatedly until the symbol that looks like "G" appears in the LCD, then press the <COLOR> button to enable wireless LAN.
Once the wireless LAN has been enabled, please click here to go to the DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE page for the PIXMA MP495. Once on the initial download page for your model, please do the following:
1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED FOR YOU" section and click the MP drivers file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
Once the file has been downloaded, please double-click on it to reinstall the printer wirelessly.
Hope this helps!
