I cant print over my wifi network with Yosemite

Hi, I've just installed OS X 10.10 on my Macbook Pro and my wife's Macbook Air and we've lost our printers on the wifi network. Internet seems to be working fine over the wifi (120 mb/s) and if i plug the computers in to the LAN connections on the router then I can see the printers OK and printing is fine. Any ideas?Thanks

  • Brother dcp 9040 cn not printing over airport wifi

    i am unsure if this is a 10.6.3 upgrade issue
    i have a brother dcp 9040 cn which i have been using for the past year very happily over the wifi airport network.
    it has stopped printing over the wifi
    it works fine with the usb connection
    it appears fine with bonjour & selects ok except when i print over the wifi it tries to connect but never does and then always pauses.
    i have upgraded the firmware on the printer from the brother site and have loaded the latest drivers from brother for osx
    has anyone got any suggestions?
    thanks

    10.6.3 came with the latest drivers for your printer.
    Try resetting the printing system.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/14001.html
    Don't install any print software.
    See if your Mac sees that printer.
    If so, select it and see if you can print.

  • I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop and and HP Win 7 laptop (my wifes) print to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I have the latest driver installed. No problem when I had a Canon...

    I have an Epson printer on a Wifi network. Windows 7 desktop is running the network, and my wife's HP Win 7 laptop prints to it just fine. My MacBook Pro running Yosemite won't detect it, and I do have the latest driver installed. I didn't have a problem when I had a Canon Pixma on the network, but when I replaced it with the Epson nothing seems to work. I go to add a printer to the queue and only the FAX function of the printer shows up - not the WS-4530 print function. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?  Please??? :-)

    Hi Kelly,
    As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
    I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
    OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
    Start with the section titled Check the network.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Sincerely,

  • Can no longer print over my wireless network

    We haven't changed our drivers for a month or so, but suddenly we can't print over our home network any more.
    We have a Canon MP500 connected by USB to an Intel iMac, which acts as a print server (as long as it's awake). Usually it's quite happy to print over our network from either our MacBook or MacBook Pro.
    What's happening now is that it says it's printing but then doesn't. There is no explicit error message. It says 'print job accepted - printing'.

    Thanks. It turns out the problem is indeed some kind of conflict between the driver of the MP500 and CD-LabelPrint, a Canon program which it uses to print discs.
    What was happening was that when I tried to print over the network onto a DVD the blockage occurred, with everything just hanging. Connecting directly by USB did the job, but the queue on the iMac (to which the printer is connected by USB) remained blocked. I had previously tried deleting and re-adding the printer on the MBP which had sent the job, but now I've done the same on the iMac and that's worked.
    What a hassle - so much for Canon's driver update :roll:

  • Why won't my Macbook Pro recognize (and connect to) a printer on same WiFi network as my Mac.

    My Macbook Pro was connected and printing to my WiFi network just fine.  However, I started getting an error message saying my printer was not connected.  I checked my printer and it is still connected to wirelss network and the printer test confirmed it was with a strong signal. I have turned off and restarted both the printer and Macbook but I am still getting the same error and it will not print. I decided to delete the printer and add it back, however, when I tried to add it my Macbook didn't list this device or my label maker that is also connected to the network.  It is as though my Mac is not recognizing any devices on the network.  Could I have a setting wrong on my Macbook?  My notebook is connected to the network and it is working.  Both my printing devices show they are connected to the same network.  Help!  I would appreciate any suggestions !

    I had almost the same thing happen the other day - kept getting a message that my printer was not connected. I went to the printer setup on the printer's panel and the IP address was correct, everything looked as if it should be working. So I just reset my router - figuring that would fix the problem. No go. What I finally ended up doing was resetting my router to factory settings and setting it up anew.
    And that's what worked for me.

  • I'm trying to extend my wifi network with time capsule but it can't find the existing wifi network

    I'm trying to extend my wifi network with time capsule but it can't find the existing BT wifi network even though it is there with a good signal strength. The Time Capsule is connected to a Netgear router via ethernet.

    You will need to start over on the setup of the Time Capsule as follows:
    Disconnect any Ethernet cables that might be connected to the Time Capsule, but leave it powered on
    Hold in the reset button on the back of the Time Capsule for 8-10 seconds and release. The reset button is located next to the AC power socket.
    Allow a full minute for the Time Capsule to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    Connect the Ethernet cable from a LAN <--> port on the Netgear to the WAN "O" port on the Time Capsule.  The Ethernet cable must remain connected at all times.
    Click the WiFi icon at the top of the Mac's screen
    Look for a setting of New AirPort Base Station
    Click on Time Capsule
    The example below shows an AirPort Express. You will see Time Capsule on your screen.
    That will get the setup wizard going. It will take a minute to analyze the settings, then display a screen that looks like this, except you will see a picture of the Time Capsule
    Network Name..........Type in the exact name that the Netgear wireless is using
    Base Station.............Type in a name that you want to call the Time Capsule.  Use something short and simple. Mine is TC, for example
    Password..................Type in the exact password that the Netgear wireless requires
    Verify.........................Verify the Password again
    Click Next
    The setup wizard will configure everything for you automatically.  When you see the message of Setup Complete, click Done.
    That's it.  Now you have one big "extended" network.  Technically, this is called a "roaming" network.

  • I have an IPAD 2 that I use to view an IP camera over a Wifi network.  The Ipad is in a vehicle that leaves the Wifi range and then returns to the range.  Upon returning to the range, the Ipad has trouble connecting to the network. (30 seconds)

    I have an Ipad 2 that I use to view an IP camera over a Wifi network.  The Ipad is in a vehicle that leaves the Wifi range and then returns to the range.  Upon returning to the range, the Ipad has trouble connecting to the network. (30 seconds)  The Ipad will eventually connect to the network, but by this time the driver is frustrated.  I have moved the antenna to within 20' of where the vehicle comes to a stop.  My Iphone does not have a problem connecting or reconnecting when used side by side with the Ipad.  Both the Ipad and Iphone have Otter box covers.  Has anyone run into this problem or have any suggestions?

    30 seconds to reconnect to a WiFi network is not unusual, especially in an environment where other radio signals on similar frequencies are present.  Sorry about that.
    You might get better times by letting the WiFi base station pick another channel.  But you might not.

  • I can't backup to iCloud over my wifi network but I can over other wifi networks

    Several days ago, I noticed that I am no longer able to backup my iPhone 5 over my wifi network. It tries to backup for a while and then says "The last backup was unable to be completed." I figured it was a bug with iOS 6 so didn't really worry about it. Then I was at my girlfriend's house and was able to backup my phone to iCloud over her wifi network. Does anyone know why I can backup on hers but not mine? Also strange that I was able to backup on my network at first and then suddenly stopped being able to. Thanks for your help!

    I am having the same issue, mine stoipped working on October 4th.  I am running mountain lion and I phone 5.  I do not know what the issue is at all.  Have a brand new macbook pro retina 15.  Not sure what the issue is but I hope someone can help us both.

  • New download of keynote files when changing wifi network with iPad

    When i change the Wifi Network with my ipad3 (without 3G) it always starts to download the keynote, numbers and pages files from the iCloud. You can't open any file until its downloaded again, you just see the Folder and the file as a placeholder.
    In my opinion this Akers totally no sense. I expect a synchronization between iPad and the iCloud like it woks with mail, kalender.  Even dropbox just downloads the file you select for use. In my case I have 64 files only in keynote, created on the iPad and eaven without changing something it will re download all files from the iCloud before I can use them.
    Anybodydid the same experience ?
    Is this a bug or a really shh.... Feature?

    No that's not my experience, it's clearly not working as it should. Perhaps you should restore your iPad.

    They seem to think this is a known issue for MACS

  • I just bought "print n share pro" app and it dosen't seem to find our printer on our wifi network (a non-wireless HP printer attached to HP PC).  What do I need to do to set this up?

    I just bought "print n share pro" app and it dosen't seem to find our printer on our wifi network (a non-wireless HP printer attached to HP PC).  What do I need to do to set this up?

    I can only tell you that I had a couple of apps that worked perfect before but when ios 5.0.1, apple closed whatever way the apps used to print....Print Central was one....the developer. at least this one, said they could not do anything about it...they only recommended printing to PDF...
    But I have a dedicated file server ( steream music and movies ) and I installed FINGERPRINT on my server and now I can print from my ipad, iphone to any printer on my server

  • I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5

    I am unable to join my own wifi network with new iphone 5.  It has the latest software downloaded too.  Keeps saying unable to join network after I type in the password.  All my other devices are able to join but just not the iphone.  I've called Verizon and my internet provider and they have been unable to help.  I had no problems with my iphone 4 with this very same issue.  Please help or I'll be forced to return this phone.  I have 13 days left.

    Try power-cycling your router (unplug for 15 seconds, then plug back in), then on your phone go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, and try joining your network again.  Note: resetting network settings will erase passwords for previously joined networks on your phone.
