Ip printer not found

Hello,
Just switched to imac from ibm compatible. I use a netgear wireless print server to connect my hp photosmart 2610 printer to my mac and my work ibm machine. When i go through the ip printer set up wizard in system preferences it does not show photosmart 2610 as one of the printers under HP. I set it up as the photosmart 1100 (which is in the wizard) and it prints but not with all the features. So I can obviously connect to the printer no problem but cannot get the mac to see the proper driver etc. Even when I download the driver from HP or from the disk. When I connect it via USB it sees it right away. What do I need to do to get it to work through the wireless print server with the proper driver?
Thanks for any help offered...
Thanks,

According to the above article, the correct 3.3 driver was included in your OS. Same with mine, I had to add my HP printer a couple of times in System Preferences to get it right, but once it's right, it will work forever, as I'm sure you know. Give it some time to recognize what you're doing. We become impatient with machines since we know that they're supposed to work, but don't understand why it isn't instantaneous. [I don't know why it isn't, I just assume they make internal errors and have to sometimes find and adjust things for them.]

  • Hp 5535 will not scan, error message printer not found

    I have a HP Envy 5535. I have only been able to scan one time with it. I scanned 22 documents, after running HP Scan Doc 4.4. Each time the HP Scan Doc states that everything is OK, yet as soon as I try to do even a test scan, I get the error message "Printer not found." I have also tried to run this scan with my McAfee virus firewall off, and it still doesn't work. I have also identified it on McAfee as part of my network.
    This question was solved.

    Hi @prazdancr,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I am sorry that you cannot scan with your HP Envy 5535, but I am happy to help!
    For further assistance I will need to know:
    If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
    If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
    If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
    In the meantime, please try going through this scanning guide. A 'The computer is not responding' Error Message Displays During Scanning.
    Hope to hear from you soon, and have a nice day!

  • I can no longer print using wifi. I have to connect a USB cable to print. Setup and pref show that I should be able to print wireless but I keep getting printer not found msg when trying.

    I can no longer print via wifi. I could at one time but now I have to connect to printer with USB. All settings appear correct in printer and macbook. Sys pref shows printer with green light next to idle. Sending a print prompt results in "searching for printer, printer not found, ensure printer is turned on". I have reinstalled printer in my print list and reinstalled printer software on macbook. Kodak 5250 AiO printer shows it's configured for and on wifi channel. I go online with laptop using wireless but cannot print. Help!

    If you know the IP address of the printer, then you can check if there is a working path between the Mac and printer. This can be done using Network Utility or a web browser.
    If you open Network Utility and select the Ping tab, you can enter the IP address of the Kodak and then press the Ping button. If there is a working connection then you should get a reply to each packet sent.
    With the web browser, many devices have a built-in web server so you can type the IP address of the printer into the browser and if there is a working connection then you will open the printers web page.
    So, are you able to confirm you have a working connection between the Mac and printer?

  • Printer not found but my 5510 is connected to the network

    Help, my 5510 B111a printer was working fine then suddenly it stopped finding my computer to scan to, and my printed couldn't find it to print to.
    I have recently changed my broadband to BT Infinitty 2, but it was working after I changed.
    I have restored the the printer to factory settings and reinstalled the new router and it is showing as being connected to the network and shows the IP address.
    I re-installed the driver on my laptop but when it tries to add it to  the network it comes up as 'printer not found'. I entered the IP adress it gave me when I connected it to the network but it still comes up as not found.
    Going a bit mad here now, can anyone help please?

    Sorry that you are having a problem with the printer not being found. 
    Try to disable the firewall and anti-virus. 
    Also, plug in a USB cable and see if it gets recognized. If so, then it is something on the network that is blocking the printer ports.

  • Printer not found all of a sudden

    I've been merrily printing away from safari to my wireless HP Photosmart C4700 printer for a few months utilizing HD Print Magic when all of a sudden today it's not working.  When I click print in safari to print a page, it says printer not found.  Normally I click print in safari and it sends it through print magic.  I wondered if print magic was seeing the printer, so I opened print magic and indeed the printer was there.  Somehow safari is not seeing my printer.   Does anyone know how to rectify  this?  Help would be appreciated!!

    If it is a Safari thing only, maybe resetting Safari as described below will help. The first thing that I would try if you haven't done so already is to simply restart your iPad. These are all sort of generic type things but you can give them a shot ....
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Cache. Then restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. To power up, hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears. Try to print again.
    Try this as well. Close Safari and all open apps. If Safari is open - you have to tap the home button before you close the apps. Double tap the home button to bring up the task bar. Tap and hold down on any app icon in the task bar until it wiggles. Then tap the minus signs in the corner of the app icons to close them all. Then restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut down. To power up, hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears. See if you can print now.
    I guess you could also try rebooting your router - sometimes that can fix wireless issues that crop up. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    You can also reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds untilt the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider. See if you can print now.

    I cannot print from my ipad. It is connected to the wireless okay. I have only had this ipad for a month and while I am not sure I think it has been okay to print before 2 days ago, when I tried to print and I got the message "Airprinter not found" Has anyone experienced this and if so what did you do about it? I have no trouble printing from my computer.

    ... Has anyone experienced this and if so what did you do about it?
    I rebooted my Airport Extreme.
    Try rebooting your router. Make sure its firmware is updated.

  • Photosmart d110a printer not found

    photosmart d110a on a mac with os lion via wireless connection
    The printer had been working fine until today. We updated to LION in December but printed fine until today...
    I went to support for help. So I went and downloaded latest software and drivers on computer and even used a USB cable so I could check for firmware updates on the printer itself; it said it had latest updates already.
    So I go to the HP Installer download (from what was downloaded from updates) and commence to update and configure the printer. My mac can't find the printer still so I use a USB cable to connect them (following directions as I am prompted). Message says 'software is successfully installed. You are now ready to set up your device and software.' I disconnect USB cable.
    I click continue and my device is not listed. I even go back to HP site and follow instructions on how to enter the IP manually and still it will not connect.
    So I plug the USB back in to mac and it shows my device. I click configure...says it is compatible with wireless networks and I check off box that says "configure your device for a wireless netwk".
    Next window says 'application has detected your device is currently connected to the following wireless netwk..." I confirm the wireless settings as correct and say to keep the settings and click continue.
    Next window says 'HP device is now configured correctly' and the IP address listed matches the one on my wireless netwk test print pages that I ran and printed earlier. (I turned off printer twice and reran the wireless netwk test and it prints out 'congratulations on successful setup of your wireless printer', shows 'excellent' signal quality and the same info each time...same IP address, etc) **Bottom of this window says "IMPORTANT: please disconnect the USB cable connected to your device now." So I do and click continue.
    POP UP says 'device not found on netwk'...'wireless netwk settings were successfully downloaded to your device. However, your Mac was unable to locate the device on the netwk. Please make sure that : Mac is connected to device wired or wireless, device is connected to wireless netwk....'
    Not sure if this is worth noting but while the printer is connected via USB, it will print.
    Please help! I am sooo confused!!!

    Hi MiltonLafer,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand you cannot install your HP Photosmart D110a with Windows 7. I am happy to help you! I have a couple of questions for you:
    How is your printer connected? Wireless or USB?
    Are you using the CD for the install or the online download?
    If you are using the CD, I would recommend to try the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows instead, to see if that works.
    Hope this helps you, and have a great day!

  • HP Photosmart 7510 series printer (Printer not found)

    My HP Photosmart 7510 printer was operating normal.  Then when I tried to scan to the computer I got the following "The HP Photosmart series was not found."  Then I received the following "The device you are trying to access has generated an error; Please ensure that the device has been properly confiqured."  All of the other functions of my printer are working normally.  It prints from the computer, it FAXs correctly (both transmitting and receiving) and copies.  I have not made a changes to the system.  What must I do to get the scanning function back?

    Hello there! Welcome to the forums @trebor-340-ste ,
    I saw your post about the scanning issue you are facing with your Photosmart 7510 and would like to try and help out! I thank you for letting me know you can copy and print!
    Could you please respond with which OS you are running and I will research this for you.
    In the meantime, please try a power reset and ensure the printer is plugged in directly to the wall outlet, avoiding power bars and surge protectors. This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help greatly. If you are connected wireless on ethernet, also unplug your router for a minute before starting up the printer and computer.
    Press the Power button to turn on the product.
    With the product turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the product.
    Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
    Wait at least 15 seconds.
    Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
    Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the product.
    If the product does not turn on by itself, press the Power button to turn it on.
    Thank you

  • Windows Server and Internet Printing - Printer Not Found

    Having looked at every thread I can find on the subject of IPP, I have finally come to post my first cry for help.
    My system is:
      Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
    I have the following roles and services installed.
      Print and Document Services
         Print Server
         LPD Service
         Internet Printing
      Web Server (IIS)
         Web Server Services, most all but Custom logging and ODBC logging
         Management Tools, all
    If I visit http://<myip>/printers , I get a list of my printers.
    Clicking on one of them I get the status page for that printer with option to connect.
    Clicking connect I get "Printer Installation Failed  --  The printer name is invalid."  I have searched for an answer to this problem for three days and nobody seems to have the exact same problem as me.
    Now, when I look at the detailed error page here:
    http://localhost/printers/SAVIN2NDFLOOR/.printer
    I get a 404 error.
    Requested URL:  http://localhost:80/printers/SAVIN2NDFLOOR/.printer
    Physical Path:  C:\Windows\web\printers\SAVIN2NDFLOOR\.printer
    That physical path does not actually exist.  C:\Windows\web\printers\ is all there but there are no printer folders in this directory.  Are there supposed to be?  What am I missing?
    All help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the post.
    As we know, when the user connects to any of the printers on the Internet printing Web page, the client (running, for example, Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008) first tries to find a driver for the printer locally. If an appropriate driver cannot be
    found, the print server generates a cabinet file (.cab file, also known as a setup file) that contains the appropriate printer driver files. The print server downloads the .cab file to the client computer. The user on the client computer is prompted for permission
    to download the .cab file.
    In this case, I would liket to confirm if a custom website is set up for Internet Printing. If so, a custom website will need to have the Printers virtual directory copied to it with the Application Mappings.
    Please also check if the "Anonymous Authentication" and "Basic Authentication" is enabled in IIS Manager.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP 2200 dtn printer not found by one Mac on network

    My local network comprises a desktop Mac Pro connected through an ethernet hub to a Time Capsule, and four Macbook Pros connected to the network by Airport wireless.  All Macs are running OS 10.8.5.  A HP 2200 dtn printer is connected to the network through the ethernet hub. This network has been very reliable. After replacing a faulty JetDirect card on the printer and deleting the printer on all machines, all the Macbooks readily detected the printer and automatically reinstalled it and there is no problem with printing. The Mac Pro is connected to the network by ethernet, but it cannot detect the printer and it does not appear as an option for installation. I have tried installing the printer by entering its static IP address, selecting JetDirect, and selecting the HP 2200 driver from the software list (or the generic PS driver). But in both cases I get a message "unable to verify printer on your network...unable to connect due to an error."
    Any suggestions on what to try next?

    Hi Good Ole Boy,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are having issues with the one Mac Pro and your HP LaserJet 2200 printer.
    Your HP Printer is a commercial product.  I have included a link to HP Product Support Page for your printer. There is a section that discusses your printer and Mac OS X 10.8.
    If the information you are looking for is not there, for more exposure I would suggest posting on the HP Commercial Products forum that can be found at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

  • Printer not found on airport extreme base station

    Have set up a printer via the USB port on the base station it worked just fine BUT when I switch off the printer and my mac book pro and then restart the printer is no longer avialable / picked up by the base station. I have to restart the base station via the airport utility and then it finds the attached printer. Is this what you have to do?

    I've had mine totally not work either upon restart. Basically - I've had two of these basestations lose their usb drives and printers when restarted. Its like they blow a fuse or something.

  • Printer driver for Epson printer not found

    I have an Epson Stylus Color 860 printer. Epson apparently does not support this printer anymore, at least with Lion. I downloaded a driver from Gutenprint that seemed to do the trick. The only "problem" is that I get this message in the Printer Utility whenever I print.
    Is there anything I can do about this? Or should I just leave well enough alone? Like I said. The printer seems to print just fine from both OS X 10.7.1 and 10.6.8.

    It sounds like you may have a preference file left over from the Epson Stylus Color 860 printer.
    1) Have you followed the directory path, /Library/Printers/Epson/CIOSupport, to see if the plug-in exists.
    2) Check for a preference file named for the printer in  /Library/Preferences
    3) Check for a preference file named for the printer in  ~/Library/Preferences
    4) Check for an Epson print driver named for the printer in  ~/Library/Printers
    If you find items in those locations from Epson for the Stylus Color 860 printer, move them to the Trash or a folder on the Desktop. See if the message goes away.
    Be careful not to Trash any files related to the Gutenprint driver.

    I have an ipad 2 and a cannon printer MG3100 which is on the list as AirPlay compatable.I have set up the printer but my ipad can not find the printer when I go to print.please help

    1. Check that you have the latest firmware on your printer, use your panel on the printer to update it.
    2. Make sure your iPad and printer are connected to the same WiFi network.
    3. What type of router are you using?
    4. Reset the router, printer and iPad and try again.

    It's quite easy to print on any printer wired to a Mac on your network with a slight configuration change in Mac OS. For details see this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12638601&#12638601
