Iphone show connection to printer, but nothing is printing

iphone show connection to my printer, but nothing is printing.

One thing you might try is to download the (free) Epson iPrint app from the App Store. See if that app sees your printer, and, if so, try the "Maintenance" button in the lower left, including its "firmware update" (which is under "Printer Settings"). Make sure the iPrint shows the ink levels.

IPhone shows connected to network, but no wifi icon, not Router or DNS listed

Hi. Just purchased an iPhone 4g for my daughter. Am trying to connect to our home wifi network. My phone works fine, shows I'm connected, shows IP, Subnet Mask, router, DNS. The new phone shows it's connected in settings / Wifi Networks (check mark) but them there is only the IP address and Subnet Mask listed, no DNS or Router. Have tried rebooting, forgetting network and starting over, turning wifi on and off, turning airplane setting on and off.
What is going on? Husband had similar issues with iPod touch, but can remember how he resolved it. All of our Mac laptops can connect to the home wifi network.
Thanks in advance for any insights!

Same problem here and I can't find a solution either.

IPhone shows connection with wifi, but I do not have the ability to do anything that requires internet

When I first unlock my iPhone, it says I have connection to internet. But when I do something that requires internet, it either does not load, or it gives me a connection error message. I just got this phone yesterday from my mom and she barley used it. I have tried factory resetting it but it wont let me.

Printer appears to be printing but nothing is on paper

I try to print and there is communication between my iPad and the printer because it starts printing but nothing is printed on the paper and I do have ink

Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? Are there any error messages on the printer or computer screen?

If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

Hello Bruarong,
It sounds like you are unable to print to your printer from Mac OS X Lion. I recommend the troublehsooting from the article named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

HT1296 tried to update both iphone 5 and ipad mini and itunes sent errors to both and now on each device it says to connect to itunes but nothing happens

i have tried to update both my iphone and ipad to the new software on itunes and both came up errors and locked me out telling me to connect to itunes but nothing happens

Try putting them in DFU mode. This helped me when it happened to my iPhone 5.
If you don't know how to do that there are plenty of tutorials on the internet. It only takes a couple seconds.

IPhone 5 setting shows connected to wifi but screen only shows 4g

Any ideas? Settings shows connected to wifi but phone keeps showing 4g by cell signal strength instead of wifi icon

That's really strange - probably not the answer you want to hear but it might be worth calling Apple Technical Support:
800-694-7466
Let us know what you find out and good luck.

Today, randomly my iPhone 5 stopped working. It has been on this black screen with the apple logo and some small white writing at the top of the screen for many hours. I've tried rebooting it and connecting to iTunes but nothing has worked.PLEASEHELP

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

It likely means there was still water inside it and something has now shorted out and permanently damaged one or more components. THE very worst thing you can do with wet electronics is energize them - even a small drop of water inside on any of the circuitry or electrical contacts can cause catastrophic damage.
Take it to Apple for a free evaluation, but most likely you will need to replace it. For the out of warranty fee ($269.00 USD) you will get a refurbished replacement (like new, with a factory new screen and battery). An out of warranty replacement will also re-instate your remaining warranty, or 90 days warranty, whichever is longer.

Iphone 5s connected to Wifi but still circle is processing next to it

Hi. My HTC M8 is working fine using home WiFi but Iphone 5s doesn't.
Sometimes it has got to log in to router back again, so i restart router and it helps but other times which is more common it's showing connection to WiFi but it also showing circle icon processing next to it. Is it just showing that it is using the the internet or does the circle mean something else?

Macs on the network say they "print" but nothing is actually printed

I have a Canon MF4350 connected via USB. It works as a local printer. Other Macs on the network can see it as a shared printer, and when you print it looks like printing work. But nothing is printed.
Canon cannot help, Apple cannot help.
Downloading the latest drivers from Canon just make the printer not work at all.
Tried everything I can think of and done a few things people recommend here - nothing works.

A previous postee who had the same issue and need to connect to the shared printer found that if the Mac that was connecting to the share did not have the UFRII driver installed locally, he was able to connect and print. The driver will be located in HD > Library > Printers > Canon > UFR2. Delete this UFR2 folder and contents and empty the Trash. Then also trash the UFRII Backgrounder plist file, located in HD > Library > Launch Agents and is called jp.co.canon.UFR2.BG.plist, and then restart the Mac. Now if you try connecting to the share, are you able to print?

I was printing to the hp e printer fine, but now the iPad still recognizes the printer ,but nothing prints. I continue to successfully print wirelessly from my computer, but not the iPad. Any ideas?

I have an hp photosmart eprinter and have been successful in the past printing to it, but now it shows on the iPad that it recognizes the printer and is printing, but nothing prints. I can still print wirelessly to this from my home pc. Any ideas?

HT5527 why does my iphone show I have CLOUD but my laptop and mac only show MOBILEME?

How come my iphone shows under settings ICLOUD but my laptop and Imac only have Mobileme and nothing under preferences that indicate ICLOUD?

According to your signature your Macs are running Leopard and Snow Leopard: neither is capable of accessing iCloud (other than setting the Mail application up manually). Lion 10.7.2 is the minimum requirement to make use of iCloud's other facilities.
