HP Photosmart plus b209a-m will not print wirelessly

This printer has had me very confused for a very long time now. When i first got the printer i had no problem installing it wirelessly and being able to print stuff wirelessly. But after i had to restore my laptop I've had some problems. I reinstalled everything and everything seemed to be working fine. When i go into the printer settings and look at the wireless connection it tells me that it is connected to my router, also when i look in my networks on my laptop i see the printer. But then when I want to print something wirelessly it tells me in the HP Solution Center that the printer is offline. This makes absolutely no sense to me at all...
I do not know what to do, I've tried to search on google for about 30 mins for a solution but i could not figure anything out.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sweyko5

HP Photosmart Plus B210 series will not print a PDF files.

When opening up a PDF file and attempting to print, the printer will not operate. I get the "save as" box, and I can only save in a format that is not usable. If I try to open the saved file, it cannot find an application to use the file. What must I do to make the printer print the PDF file?

HP Photosmart Plus B209a is no longer printing through wireless connection. Appreciate any suggestions...

Hello. My HP Photosmart Plus B209a all in one printer stopped working through wireless connection yesterday. I have tried to delete the printer and reinstall using HP Setup Assistant, but when I attempt to configure the device for a wireless network, the HP Setup Assistant quits unexpectedly. I can succesfully set up the printer, but only for use with a USB cable. I noticed that there was an HP printer software update installed yesterday version 2.16.1. Could this have anything to do with it? I read something about airprint in the support discussions but I dont see the nearby printer option anywhere? I checked the list of compatible printers and mine is on there so I am not sure what I am missing here. I would hate to go out and buy a new printer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

I have the same printer but my problem stems from installing a new router. I went through the exact same steps that you did and the HP Installer crashed on me 5 different times at the exact same spot. I called HP and got through to them and after 15 minutes he informed me that this particulart printer is no longer "supported" and software is not available. I told him that I downloaded the update that was available today. He was no help whatsoever. I also can print via USB but that is not at all what I want. The downside of this printer anyways is that it is not Airprint compatible. So, its either reinstall the old router or buy a new printer. This *****!

OFFICEJET 4622 WILL NOT PRINT WIRELESSLY AFTER MULTIPLE TIME TRING TO INSTALL mutiple times

My printer will not print wirelessly. I see that it is installed and the firewalls are turned off but it will not print

Hello phdavid53,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand your Officejet 4622 will not print wireless. I will do my best to assist you! First, I would like to ask you a couple of questions to clarify: When you installed this printer on your computer, were you able to print a document? Did the installation state it had a successful wireless connection?
I would recommend following this entire HP document on Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
What is your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?
If you were never able to install this printer over a wireless connection through the software, then please follow this HP document on 'Unable to Find Printer' Error Message Displays on the Computer During a Wireless Network Installati.... I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Will Not Print Wirelessly

Hi. I have read other threads on this forum with suggested fixes from HP employees and tried them. I have run the tool which found no errors. My firewall is off. I have installed the latest Adobe and uninstalled then reinstalled the printer software. I have followed instructions in book re: turning off computer, router, printer, etc. I can see the IP address for the printer in IE.
Still, this brand new printer will not print wirelessly or otherwise from my hp laptop. VERY frustrating. I have spent hours trying work arounds for a brand new computer. I would greatly appreciate a response regarding how to resolve this problem. Thank you.

I have seen cases where a troubled install went through flawlessly after the computer was reimaged. That may be an option to consider.
I did want to make sure that you had the most current firmware version and it looks like you do.
Before a reimage, you could uninstall Officejet Pro 8600 programs (if there are any) and download and install the drivers for your printer from hp.com. Click here for the HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver. By doing this, you would have the most up-to-date drivers. Sometimes a download will work where a disk does not. It you do decide to reimage, I highly recommend the above download for the installation.
Let me know what happens.

My Canon MX922 will not print wireless or wired.

My CANON MX922 printer will not print wireless or wired. I used suggestions in Community such as "MX922 not connecting wirelessly, 7-6-15, post 1362, 10-17-15". (No solution). I worked with a great rep., by phone,for one hour. (No solution). My MG6220 has worked wirelessly, for two years, on the same Lenovo computer with Windows 7. THANKING YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO HELP ME.

I tried that and the computer still can not recognize the printer. I used the CD that came with it to reinstall it and all goes well until the very end when the last window pops up and says it can not find the printer.I went and bought a new printer last night Canon MG5622 since it uses the same ink cartridges and I have a lot of of inkI didn't want to waste. This printer installed easily and works great.Not sure what happened with the other one but perhaps I'll pass it to my sister with the CD and see if it will install onher computer.thank you for your help, you're awesome for trying!Diane

My Macbook Air will not print wirelessly!

My Macbook Air will not print wirelessly using the connection between it and my iMac which is connected via USB to my Canon Printer. The iMac and the Air are both using the same network and the printer is found on the Air... it sits at idle, but when I press "Print" on my Air it never actually prints. There is just a flash of the print icon on the Dock and then it is gone... I am left with no reason or error message. My colleagues are able to print wirelessly with no issue using their Macbook Pro and the same connected iMac. Can anyone help with this?
Macbook Air: OS X 10.8.3
iMac: OS X 10.7.5

Hi JDP86,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If your printer is wireless-capable, you should first add the printer to your network. Use the printer's control panel, or temporarily connect the printer to your Mac via USB.

HP Photosmart Premium c 309g will not print black, all other colors fine. Shows ink levels fine,

Have photosmart premium c309 g connected wirelessly to I Mac and Mac book pro. The unit suddenly will not print black. Ink levels show all good. All other colors print fine. When check HP utility and go to print quality diagnostics, a box appears that states cannot print PQ page--make sure printer is turned on. If I tell it to print a page, it immediatly connects and prints all colors but not black. How can it print regular page but not receive message to print PQ page? "make sure printer is on" ??

I have this exact same problem with the same printer. Printer will not print black. My macbook pro is connecting to the printer but shoots out a blank page. I just put in a new ink cartridge even though it was not low on ink. Please help.

You may want to download and run the HP Print and Scan doctor. It will help to diagnose and fix many printing issues like the one you are having.

I am assuming (hoping!) you mean you have installed the Epson iPrint app on one or both of your iPad and/or iPhone, and Epson iPrint does not detect the printer.
If that's true, then Mavericks is definitely not the problem! Neither the iPhone nor iPad (nor Epson iPrint) rely on Mavericks.
Hunt for your printer using Epson iPrint. Make sure your pinter is on, tap "Scan", then tap the gear-like icon in iPrint to hunt for it.

Hp Photosmart 1215 color cartridge will not print.

I have a photosmart 1215.
The color quit printing so I purchased a new print cartridge
hp c6578d
and that cartridge would not print.
I performed all the cleaning procedures as set forth on this site.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Did you remove the protective tape from the cartridge?
Is there any trace of color on the printed page? If not try gently blotting the nozzles on a damp tissue. Does this leave a strong stripe of cyan, magenta and yellow on the tissue? If not then you have a defective cartridge. If there are no stripes of color on the tissue then the cartridge is defective. If there are stripes of color on the tissue but no color prints on the test page or cleaning pages then the printer will likely require service.

What does it say?
I suspect it may be your Symntec firewall, but let's see what the utility says.
Have you restarted you router lately? Does it have updated firmware?
