HP Photoprinter C7280 printer. The wireless radio is on but not functioning - so no wifi conection.

HP Photoprinter C7280 printer. The wireless radio is on but not functioning  - so am unable to gain wifi connection and print! - Why?   How do I fix, Thanks

I would guess that the printer's wireless radio has died.  Have you tried plugging the printer into your wireless router with an Ethernet cable?  It should work and give you the same functions as wireless.  Your computer or router will not care how the printer is connected.

  • The Menu bar is visible but not functional, I have to force-quit Firefox 4.0 every time I want to close the application.

    This is a recurring but not constant problem I encounter while running Firefox 4.0 on my MacBook OSX10.6.7. The Menu bar across the very top of the screen will be visible, but none of the menus will work if I click on them (File, Edit, View, History, etc.) I have to force-quit Firefox and restart it to get it to work again.
    Also, my pinned tabs have disappeared, for no apparent reason. And to be honest, this version is way slower and buggier than my old Firefox, and it's driving me nuts.

  • Hp photosmart c309a all in one series printer indicates the wireless radio is not functioning.

    The printer has had difficulty finding the wireless router.
    I had a problem with the print coming out on an angle.
    I cleaned the rollers with a dry rag now the wireless radio is not functioning at all.

    Try resetting the printer.  Turn it off.  Hold the # and 9 keys while turning it back on.
    If this does not work, call HP support: www.hp.com/go/totalcare (click on Printers & Monitors, use the phone number on the resulting page).

  • Photosmart c309a- 'The wireless radio is not functioning, contact HP support'

    My Photosmart c309a wont connect wirelessly. Upon running the wireless network test, the report states, and I quote "The wireless radio is not functioning. Contact HP support". The report then states the following:
    Wireless on                    PASS
    Wireless working         FAIL
    and everything following that stated as 'not run'.
    Ive searched for other threads on the subject, and the only sloutions I can find are unplug the printer and plug it back in to reset it (made no difference), and try the HP print and san doctor (link was dead, found it manually and didnt work as it cant connect to or even see the printer on the network).
    So the question is, is this a hardware fault, and if so what can be done about it?

    Hello,
    Yes, it is an hardware issue and indicates that the Wireless card is not functional.
    Please call HP Tech Support for further assistance.

  • Wireless network report says that the wireless radio is not fuctioning

    I have a C309a HP printer.  When I updated my laptop from Vista to windows 7 and try to connect to the wireless printer,  it will not connect wirelessly.  When I print the Wireless network Test Report the report says that the Wireless radio in the printer is not functioning.  Do I need to buy another printer????  I have gone into the wireless radio selection and made sure that it is set to on.

    Hello Jawhited,
    It might be possible that the printer is not able to initialize the printers wifi adapter. There are a few steps that I would try before looking for a other printer. One of them is contacting your local HP support. Often with a reset, they might be able to to re-initialize the printer in a attempt that it would re-enable the printers wifi card.
    What could also help, is making sure that Bluetooth is disabled, or first disabling every communication option and then re-enable the wifi radio only. Though as I said before, make sure to contact you local support for any further options they might have.
    Kind regards,

  • "The Wireless Radio Is Not Functionin​g" - LaserJet 200 M251nw

    I have had this LaserJet printer for a couple of weeks now and recently it started giving me a number of different errors. It was displaying the 79 Error  and i was attempting to figure out why it won't connect to any network when it started hanging up entirely when trying to find networks. i printed out the test report and it says that "The wireless radio is not functioning. Contact HP support."Is this something that can be fixed easily?

    Please reset the printer back to factory defaults.
    1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the Setup button.
    2. Scroll to and touch the Service menu.
    3. Scroll to and touch the Restore Defaults button, and then touch the OK button.
    The product automatically restarts.
    Now check again to see if the wireless radio is non functional.   If yes then I suspect the wireless radio has failed.  However there is a possible fix, go here:
    Connect wireless printer anywhere, convert from wired, bypass failed radio, add WPA2 security.

    Has worked on wireless for 14 months with no problems.  Now I cannot get the printer to work - have printed a wireless network test report and it states that the wireless radio is not functioning. I have unplugged the power cable to the printer and waited 30 seconds before reconnecting but there is no change - any suggestions?

    I have sent a private message with some steps to try.
    Let me know what happens.

  • On a wireless network test report, I get "The wireless radio is not functioning."

    The printer is a Photosmart C309a all-in-one.  I've used this printer for some time and did so wirelessly earlier today.  Upon ordering a print job the printer failed to produce results.  I ran a Network Configuration Page where it showed the printer to be offline with no Active Connection Type.  I then ran a Wireless Network Test report and received the message: "The wireless radio is not functioning.  Contact HP Support."  IS THERE A FIX FOR THIS?
    I reinstalled the printer software on my computer configuring it with a USB connection, in order to be able to use the printer.  I was able to use it with the USB connection but would most definitely prefer a wireless connection.  I also turned off the printer, router and computer and turned them on in the order outlined in the user's manual, but to no avail.  This, of course, I did before reinstalling the software for a USB connection.    

    Hi,
    I afraid the error indicate an an hardware failure..
    You may try using a wired ethernet cable as a workaround, the printer will need to be services in order to repair its wireless card.
    You may find the details to contact HP support by selecting your region and following Technical Support after you buy:

  • Error message: The wireless radio is not functioning.

    I spent 2 hrs on HP support chat last night, trying to get an answer to whether this is a fixable problem, and finally was disconnected from chat.
    The printer is a Photosmart 7460 and it recognizes the network and I could get to its IP addres online. But it printed out its own error message saying that the radio "failed."
    Can anyone tell me if this is something I can fix or if I just need to trash the machine and start over?
    thanks in advance for your help!

  • C309a The wireless radio is not functionin​g.

    My c309a is out of warranty.  Network test report states wireless radio not functioning.  It is out of warranty but only 2 years old. Is there a part that can be purchased to correct px.  Saw other user who was still under warranty was told to contact HP to utilize the warranty rights.  So I guess this is something that cannot be fixed without replacing part.

    Right.  Your printer's wireless radio has likely failed.  Installing a new one, even if you could get the part, would be more expensive than getting a new printer.  Sorry.

  • The Wireless Radio Is Not Functioning.

    when I tried to setup my C309a printer wirelessly, I received a messaje that says:  The Wireless Radio Is Not Functioning.  contact HP Support.  How Can I Fix this Problem?

    Try resetting the printer.  Turn it off, hold the # and 6 keys while and a bit after turning it back on.
    If the radio is still showing Not Functioning, then it is indeed bad.  You can connect your printer to your router with an Ethernet cable for the same exact network functionality.  Otherwise, its time for a new printer.
