HP1102W wireless printer has no ip address.

Hi I am trying to connect a HP1102W printer to a Telstra Personal hot spot device (small black stand alone device that can control up to 5 devices)
Is this at all possible?
The wireless printer does not have a solid blue light only flashing blue
Config page shows all o.o.o.o so unable to log into webserver.
Basically what I am trying to do is invoice through a remote login site back to myob accounting on my office computer, preferably on my ipad and airprint to the printer (in the car-inverter running) if this is possible
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Brad

Hi bradbill
I understand you want to know if you can configure the printer on a hot spot.
Routers are used for networking the printers.
Usually they will never connect and if possible it would be very intermittent.
You can setup the wireless direct on this printer so you can print from a mobile device directly to the printer.
For this model though there is no display. So you have to enable the wireless direct.
Method 1
You would have to install the printer on a computer and through the install screen check a box that says something like embedded web server to turn the wireless direct on.
Method 2
You can setup the printer on a adhoc connection to enable the wireless direct.
Right click on wireless icon on bottom right corner of the screen
left click open network & sharing, select connect to a network
click on HP, click connect. Wait a couple of minutes and you should get a
solid blue wireless light on the printer. Then print out the configuration page to get the printer's IP address.
Follow this document after doing Method 1 or Method 2.
Printing from an Apple or Android Mobile Device with HP Wireless Direct.
Hope this helps.
Have a great weekend!

My Photosmart D100a wireless printer keeps changing IP Address when router reboots.

My Photosmart D100a wireless printer keeps changing IP Address when router reboots.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

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.
- 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.

My Epson wireless printer has lost its connection with imac - how do I reconnect?

My Epson wireless printer is not responding to the print command displaying the message "looking for printer/the printer is not connected" but the printer is on and the wireless connection working - any thoughts please on how to resolve? Thanks

I've found that once in a while this seems to randomly occur. It's happened to me in the last couple of days with my Brother printer. The only way I could get it working was to go through the palaver of setting up the wifi connection to the printer again, using the control panel on the printer to rejoin the network and re-inputting the password.
The connecting can be made easier if it and your router support WPS pairing. Select WPS pairing on the printer and if offers up an 8 digit number that you input in the wifi configuration page of your router.

Wireless printer not responding, mac says no connection

HP LaserJet P1102w Wireless Printing - Frozen at Password

I've got the firmware and I can get to the page that lets me choose my wireless network and input my password. However, when I put in the password, the entire page just freezes - I never get to a confirmation page, and if I reload, it hasn't updated my wireless password.
Thoughts?

Hi @stralins.
I understand that after putting in your Encryption information the printer's Embedded Web Server is locking up. I can help you with this, but I will need some more information so I can provide you the proper steps.
What operating system are you using?
How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
Print a configuration page to see if the printer has a IP address or SSID.
If the wireless is still flashing on the printer, then restore the printer defaults.
Turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and cancel (x button) while turning the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise.
Print out a configuration report and make sure the SSID and IP address are cleared.
(hold down the x button and when the printer makes a noise let go)
After the reset, disconnect the routers power cable, wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the power cable.
Wait till it's ready.
Try entering the Encryption information again. (if you are on a Mac, set Safari as the default browser)
Have a nice day!

My HP 3050A wireless printer has stopped printing. I have restarted both my computer and the printer and it still didn't work. I deleted the printer from my printer list and then restarted everything again and now it doesn't even find the printer. What am I doing wrong? My computer is a new Mac. Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Can you see the wireless light on the printer as Solid blue or is the lighe blinking?
If the light blinks, it means that the printer has disconnected from the network.
In order to reconfigure it - temporary connect the printer with USB, launch the HP Setup Assistsant (Located under Applications > Hewlett-Packard > Device Utilities) and follow the steps to reconfigure the wireless connection.

How do i find the email address assigned to my all-in-one wireless printer?

I am trying to set up my so called"all-in-one" (w/o fax?) to wirelessly print from my mobile or other computers connected to my network. I was referred to the eprintcenter.com site. I then read that I needed to set up an account. while doing so, I was asked to give an email address with the password? (you must be joking?) I went back to read that each device has an assigned email address that I could find by going through the device itself wireless menu.... Uhmmmmm?? I have not been able to find it... Nor, any of the other questions?

Hi IDNTLKHPPRODS,
You can see the email address of your printer on the printer itself. If you tell us the model of your printer, I can point you in the right direction to find that.
For creating an account on eprintcenter.com, you use your email address--the one where YOU receive your email, not the printer's email address. Once you have that account and have added your printer to it, you can customize the email address so it is something easier to remember.
I hope this helps!

Has anyone fixed wireless printing to HP LaserJet 1015 via AEBS Snow

Dear All
I've searched the forums, read numerous posts by HP Mac Architect (thanks BTW for your amazing efforts), tried various things, and still can't get wireless printing back on my HP LaserJet 1015.
My set up is:
Intel Core Duo 20" iMac, 10.6.1, running latest version 2.2 HP drivers (383Mb download)
Airport Extreme Base Station Snow, running firmware 5.7
HP LaserJet 1015 connected to the USB port of AEBS
Worked in 10.5.8. Absolutely nothing in 10.6.1 - not an initial page, nothing after resets or restarts, nothing. It has also scuppered wireless printing to the 1015 from another iMac on the network running Leopard 10.5.8.
I have tried the following:
1) Usual stuff - restart AEBS, restart computer, switch off printer, unplug AEBS 30 seconds, reconnect printer
2) Deleting all HP stuff from Library/Printers, Library/Printers/PPDS/Contents/Resources, System/Library/Extensions, restarting, reinstalling HP drivers version 2.2, re-adding printer
3) Add the printer via Bonjour, using plain driver, Gutenprint driver
4) Add the printer via IP printing, HP JetDirect - Socket, using address of base station +/- the port, using either plain driver or Gutenprint driver
5) Tried the ipstat stuff in the terminal to get CUPS to accept the URI
6) Tried downgrading firmware of AEBS to 5.6 then 30s off, then back to 5.7, 30s off, then re-add the printer
The error messages I get:
Initially 'communication failure'
Then 'client-error-not-possible' from the other iMac
Now mainly 'unable to open device (read failure)'
I have yet to try the HPIJS drivers but before I do so has anyone else had any success or tried any other things I've not mentioned?
Do I need to wait till 10.6.2 or buy a new N base station or buy a new printer or what?
Thanks in advance

mwong,
At the moment, there is no way I know of to get the LaserJet 1015 printing through the USB port any Airport base station that isn't running a firmware version of 7.4.2 (ie an 802.11N compatible Airport). Some people have had some luck on newer G's running 6.3, but I haven't seen anyone report success with 5.7 yet. At the moment, there is nothing we can do from our end to fix the issue.
Just trying to help.

Mac Address Filtering Issue with DI-624 router and HP D110 Wireless Printer

Just got the D110 Wireless Printer and cannot connect to the wireless router.
I have a D-Link DI-624 Air Plus Xtreme G 2.4GHz Wireless Router.
The error message that I'm recieving from the printer is that "Mac address filtering may be enabled on your wireless router. This can prevent your HP printer from connecting to your wireless network during setup....etc."
The D-Link is setup using WPA-PSK security. If I turn off all security than the wireless printer is able to connect. With WPA-PSK or even WEP enabled I cannot connect the printer to the wireless router. There is no connection to hardwire the printer and the router.
I've logged on to the router's admin and have confirmed several times that Mac filtering is turned off by going to Advanced > Filters > Mac Filters > and choosing Disabled Mac Filters. Where else is this setting? Why is the printer not able to connect?
Further, I check the logs on the router and it shows "Wireless PC Connected" and "Authentication Success" with a note that has the Mac Hardware Address matching the printer's mac hardware address on the Wireless Network Test Report. It would appear that the router is letting the Print in but that the printer is not able to communicate for some reason. It even shows under status > wireless that the printer is connected.
When i spoke to HP, they said to contact the router company and that they could not help. When I called D-Link they said tech support is no longer available for the model. I'm stuck, can anybody help?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Windows XP, tried both the front of the printer as well as connecting via USB and using the software.
After a few hours on the phone with both D-Link and HP, the issue has been resolved.
Apparently eventhough Mac Filtering was disabled (set to Disabled MAC Filters), the Mac address had to be entered into the router to allow it while keeping the setting to Disabled Mac Filters. To me it appeared counter intuitive to enter the Mac address while it's set to Disabled Mac Filters so I did not try that before getting on the phone with HP. Further on this, the problem did not go away right after adding the mac address but rather after restarting the router as the mac address addition did not take effect without a reboot of the device.
HP was much more helpful than D-Link on this one though it would be nice for HP to add to their instructions and Wireless Network Test Report to add the Mac address just in case. I would have tried that step if it was stated that it's okay to add the mac address and keep mac filters disabled.

Wireless Printer address lost at PC RESTART

HDW Config: PC1 is XP SP3 hardwired (network cable) to BEFW11S4v4 (Most current firmware); PC2 is Wireless using WUS11 v2 ; Printer is HP 6988 Wireless.
SW Config and settings when failure still occurs: With or without Antivirus(AVG), Firewall (ZA, not msft), With or without WEP Key and with 64-bit WEP; XP at current SP3; 6988 set to use 806.11b all the time.

http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r21815028-HP-6988-wireless-connectivity
Problem simplified: PC1 (DHCP in .20-.26 range) that is hardwired to router can not find the printer after PC restart (PING to the printer 192.168.40 a static address) fails.
PC2 (static address 192.168.22) which is wireless has no problem pinging printer. If I switch PC1 to wireless mode, it also is successful every time even after PC restart.
So, problem is only on a PC hardwired to router trying to locate a wireless printer after a PC restart. If I cannot get to the printer, but cycle my router (unfortunately killing my other PC connections) the address becomes available (can now ping) and I can print to it.
Question: How is connection between printer and PC through the router established? How does my PC find out that there is a printer at 192.168.1.40 without me having to power-cycle the router? Sounds to me like one of the devices isn't abiding to protocols.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Router is fine. I connected PC2(laptop Windows/ME) via network cable and its XIRCOM Cardbus Ethernet 10/100 card and it has no problems seeing printer on 192.168.1.40.
Looks like its either XP or my NIC, Intel Pro/100 VE Network Connections. According to DELL site, I am at most current adapter driver(?) for it, but I did pull a newer "package" (don't know driver inside yet). Hesitated putting it on after it said I needed to delete old one first. I'll pull Dell driver (same as mine) for back and proceed with that way.
Can anybody think of anything in XP that could be corrupted

HP Deskjet Printer has stopped connecting wirelessly?

My HP Dekjest 3050 printer has been working perfectly well for approximately one year. it has suddenly decided it cannot locate my home wireless network?! The blue 'wireless' light is flashing slowly and on the HP support website the solution is to move the device closer to the router. I have done this but to no avail. When I connect manually through a USB connection it is fine so the printer is working, but the wireless function has come to a grinding halt.
If I can find a solution it would be great (or someone I can talk to who can help me)?
Many thanks

Hello Steve,
Thanks for the feedback, if the printer is reporting a WPS error, then your printer is attempting to connect itselves to your router using the Wireless Protected setup, this can be via either a button press on your router (if supported by your router) or via a PIN code generated by the router you got.
I would try to cancel this or disable the attempt to connect it via the WPS setup and try to config the settings via USB cable or with the Wizard wireless setup (if available in your printer). This would make it easier if the WPS is not a option, the way I see it, is that at the time being, your printer is in a loop and attempt to keep reconnecting and if not supported, then it will keep failing.
If you can not cancel this loop then a reset might be required, in this case I would recommend to contact your local HP support so that they can execute a reset and reset it all to default settings, from there on they can assist you with the install and reconfig of your printer.
Hope it helps!
Kind regards,
van Baardewijk

How do I find the IP address of a wireless printer (via bonjour) on my Airport Extreme?

I can see the MAC address of my macbook and the printer using the AirPort Utility, but I can't find the actual IP. Attempting to connect through the printer utility puts:http://hp88388e.local./ in the URL, but the page just hangs. isn't there a numerical address associated with the printer? how can I find it?

Thanx for the help! It was not the problem, however. I fixed the issue. Here is what happened:
Because the HP D110 printer was set up manually with the previous UBEE wireless router cable modem, the printer's IP address stayed fixed at 192.168.0.238 even after I performed a "factory reset" through the touch-screen menu. bonjour is apparently able to "see" the printer, and even establish a physical layer of communication with the printer, but it is unable to transfer data to and from the printer. Thus, while the network detected and could establish a link, no tasks could be accomplished (i.e. ink levels, paper out, actual printing, etc). additionally, the link to go to the printer webpage was dead (that was my first clue).
I tried hooking it up via the USB port on the airport extreme, and it would work perfectly. After I set it up, it automatially printed a test page and I discovered that it was still 192.168.0.238 - even though the airport extreme had it listed in the logs as 10.0.1.3. I figured that was the problem, but I was still unable to log into the printer webpage to reset the IP on the printer side.
Because I was unable to force the airport extreme to assign the printer to the existing address, I had to keep playing around with the on-screen menu. Evenually I found that inside the wireless menu, there is an option to reset all wireless parameters, and once I did this, I deleted the printer and added it again from the print/fax utility. this time, it worked wirelessly, and the printer web page could be accessed.
As an aside, the apple interface to the print/scan/fax settings were far smoother, faster, and more intuative than the HP utilities written by HP on windows! Hope this helps anyone who is also stuck.

HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless Printer - A809n.says it's out of ink but has new cartridge

about 6 monhs ago the printer stopped printing stating it was a out of ink (black) after i replaced the cartridge it stopped again after about 10 days. i contacted HP and they basically told me to get a new printer. i decided to try a new cartridge again and reboot etc, etc. it still would work i use my other HP printer before looking to buy another. i read on the internet that this was a frequent problem with the HP Officejet Pro 8000 Wireless Printer - A809n. and it might be an printhead problem. i replaced the printhead and any low or outdated ink cartridge. the printer worked perfectly for 4 weeks. now i am having the same problem. this sticks. it is leaving a bad taste . i have been a loyal HP user i feel HP has made a questionable product and is not standing behind it.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.
