Is it possible for my printer to be wired and wireless?

Thank you for any suggestions on how to get my printer to be a wireless printer plus a wired one ...

Hi,
The printer can only be connected to a network using either Wireless or Wired.
However, once you connect the printer to your network it becomes available to any other device connected to that same network, either if it is connected wirelessly or wired.

Problems with hp laser printing in leopard- wired and wireless

Printing problems in Leopard are slowly eating away at my last nerve!
Here's the background: I have a Macbook Pro 2.33GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB ram, running 10.5.2. Ever since I upgraded to Leopard, I've been having printing problems, both wired and wireless. I have an HP Laserjet 1160, which is a wonderfully reliable printer- I've had it since 2005 and have never had a problem.
When I installed Leopard, I began getting a popup message after starting up my computer and logging in. The message has a lighthouse icon on it and reads:
"Popup Error: Failed to listen for incoming Popup jobs. You will not be able to use Popup printing for the duration of this session. Please report this incident to a system administrator."
(for the record, I only have one computer, it's not on any system, and I have the administrator account)
Here are the two problems I have:
-First, wired printing is spotty. Half of the time, when I connect the USB cable and click print, nothing prints. Usually, if I unplug the cable and plug it into the other USB port, then printing works. This is in spite of the fact that the computer recognizes that the printer is there- I can delete then re-add the printer to my printer list and still nothing.
-Second, wireless printing does not work at all. Again, the printer is recognized when plugged in to either the time capsule or the airport express, and I can add the printer, but printing doesn't work: the job is sent to the print queue, but the queue stalls on the "connecting to printer" phase.
This problem is a huge pain, and I have no idea how to solve it. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for posting this problem Cathjock. I have had the same issue with a NEC Superscript 1400. Thinking it wast he printer, which is getting up there in age, I went out and purchased a new HP P1505 to no avail. I have been researching this for a few days now and think that all of this is related to a user permission in CUPS. I have de-installed, re-installed, re-booted etc as prescribed and got three pages hours after the fact via my Airport Express connected new printer. Generally, however, nothing comes out immediately as was the case in the past either on Airport Express or via USB cable. I am stumped and am starting to get worried.
I can't print invoices for my business and am considering firing up my old Windows machine if you can believe it !
Seriously, Apple has created a monstrous situation with all of htese printing issues and nothing is apparently being done, nothing that I can find in any of the discussion forums at this time.
My last option is to re-install 10.5 with an archive and install as I really cannot afford to start from scratch.
Now if you look at this forum, there are 242,847 views logged with 2,514 questions and 13,848 messages.
This should mean something for Apple as many people need help and are getting really really ******-off.
So pleeeeaaaaase Apple. respond and offer a fix for this problem that is plaguing a ton of people.

Best Config for 2 iTunes Libs, AppleTV, Wired and Wireless

Hi there,
Looking for a little configuration advice.
AppleTV connected wired to AirportExtreme.
PC 1 with iTunes (wife and kids library) connected wired to AirportExtreme. This is the "main" AppleTV library.
PC 2 with iTunes (my library) connected wirelessly to AirportExtreme and shared on Apple TV. PC2 has its iTunes library on an external USB drive.
I get the sense I have too many hops, though AppleTV seems to be working OK. I can't get away from the suspicion that streaming from PC2 isn't great.
Any advice on a better config? Part of the problem is that PC1 somethime gets rebooted by kids. A Mac is so in my future.
Connect hard drive from PC2 to back of AppleTV and then share connect iTunes on PC2 to lib wirelessly across network?
Consolidate libraries?
Synchronize ALL music to AppleTV (140gb). Won't I need to be sure iTunes is still running on PC1 or whatever the main AppleTV-iTunes instance is?
Anything else?
My thanks!!!

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking here, there doesn't seem much wrong with the way you have things, although if PC 1 sometimes gets restarted and itunes doesn't always get relaunched, you could either sync the PC 1 library rather than stream it, or have you thought about ensuring itunes always opens when the PC boots up.
You cannot add an external HD directly to the tv.

NAC Guest server for wired and wireless

Hi
My customer wants the NGS to install for both wired and wireless users. For wireless users we can integrate it with the WLC but i don't know how it will work for wired users at the same time. Pls suggest.
Thanks

Hi Vishal,
Please note that if you want to return ACLs (and usually in wired web auth you need to), you will have to integrate with ACS as NGS itself cannot return ACLs in the reply radius attributes.
Basically the process is as follows:
1 - Client plugs cable on switch.
2 - Web auth is triggered on the port.
3 - default ACL permiting only DNS and DHCP is applyed so that the client PC can obtain IP address and open a browser.
4 - Client will be redirected to the NGS hotspot login page.
5 - Client will enter credentials.
6 - Client broswer will send an HTTP POST packet containing the credentials.
7 - The switch will intercept the POS packets and retrieve the credentials entered.
8 - The switch will send Radius Access-Request to the ACS.
9 - The ACS will use the NGS as External Identity source to authenticate the client.
10 - The NGS will reply with Radius Access-Accept to the ACS and the ACS will reply to the switch including the ACL in the Access-Accept.
11 - the Switch authorizes the client on the port and applies the ACL it received from the ACS.
Please follow the document Nicolas posted as it is a good one.
HTH,
Thanks

DHCP Server - Different Range for Wired and Wireless Network

We have DHCP setup on Windows Server 2012r2 and the range given to us by the main HQ is 10.65.112.1-10.65.112.254 (there are several exclusions under this range)
Now since the range gets exhausted quickly, they provided another one 10.65.122.1-10.65.122.254.
What our branch would love to do is to dedicate the first range for Wired Computers and the other range for Wireless Devices (Phone,Tablets, Mobiles)
Right now we have 2 different scopes setup in DHCP, the second one is disabled. In our network we have 6 access points and also have a CISCO SG300-52 Managed Switch. It has an inbuilt DHCP Server and also has the function for DHCP Relay. But we are not actually using any of its functionality as of now.
So my question is how to have 2 separate ranges for wired and wireless network. People have mentioned vlans but I have no clue on how to get that done.
Is there a simpler way avoding V-LANS or if not, would love to get step by step procedure on how to go about this. Any help will be much appreciated
Regards,
Sheldon

Hi Sheldon, please read this post
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2270049
You will need some modifications though. Steps 1-6 is very relevant. On step 6, you need to pay particular close attention to the "default router". If the SX300 handles your intervlan routing then the default router needs to be the IP of your VLAN. If you have a different device to handle VLAN routing then the default router needs to be that IP address.

How to control bandwidth for wired and wireless

I have a wrtn400n dual band router and I was wondering if there is a way from the router settings that can lower internet connection for wired and wireless. Reason why its because I have 3 cousins that ALWAYS downloading music, videos, or watching a movie from an asian website. It lags me so much, that I can not even play online games. My ISP is comcast which is cable. I can barely surf on the net. Its like, they're taking up all my connection. I know there is a way to do it without cutting them off from the connection. It's a 2.4 and a 5.4ghz router and I can't find my 5.4ghz ssid on my wireless networking thing. My sister and I are wired connected while my cousins are wireless, but sometimes one of my cousins wire their laptop. The modem and router is connected to my computer. Please help me!!! I know theres a way to do this, but I just can't find out how!

Simple answer: it's impossible. See here.

Is it possible for one user to use Aperture and another iPhoto?

I have a new imac 21.5", 3.33ghz, 4gb and I was wondering if it is possible for me as admin user to handle camera downloads automatically with Aperture, and my wife as second user to use iPhoto as automatic camera destination? Any comments would be appreciated.

If you want to use the same account there are a number of possibilities:
1. Set both Aperture and iPhoto to Do Nothing when a camera is connected. Then each one can launch their preferred app themselves. It's just one extra click.
2. Use [Cameras|http://www.flexibits.com> to configure what happens when different cameras are connected.

Is it possible for IPhoto to go through images and find duplicates which can then be safely deleted? I have so many duplicates that it would take me weeks to physically go through them and delete individually. I

Is it possible for IPhoto to seek out duplicate images and then delete them?

Try one of these: iPhoto Library Manager, Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto, Duplicate Annihilator or iPhoto Applescript to Remove Duplicates. The second and last are free. The first is, IMO, the better app and has many other features.

Error: cartridge not suitable for this printer after switch off and on

HI,
I have an officejet 6310 all-in-one. After printing and switching it off and switching it back on the next day, I get the message (translated from Dutch):
catridge error:
Rightside cartridge isnot suitable for this printer
Switching it off, removing either the right-hand cartridge or even both cartridges doesn't solve this issue. Anyone has an idea how to solve this?
Thanks in advance,

Is it possible for buyer to create both RFQ and supplier response (i.e. quotations) in Sourcing module?

Hi,
In Vision Demo, after buyer (e.g. cbaker) creates a RFQ, then i can logon as supplier account (e.g. 'industrial') to input corresponding quotation.
But as our site doesn't allow suppliers to logon our EBS directly and we receive paper quotations, then, is it possible for buyer to input quotation for these RFQs in Sourcing module?
Thanks
Leo

private String createTransmitter() {
localAddr = new SessionAddress( InetAddress.getLocalHost(), port);
destAddr = new SessionAddress( ipAddr, port);You can do instead:
localAddr = new SessionAddress( InetAddress.getLocalHost(), SessionAddress.ANY_PORT);

What can I do if OS X Lion is too new for my printer to set up its wireless capabilities

When I try to set up the wireless printing capabilities for my printer, it says that OS X Lion is too "new" to be used in order to begin setup. What can I do?

You can go to the manufaturers website to see if there is an updated driver for your machine that will help it communicate with Lion,
To update the driver routine you may have to make a hard conection via a USB cable to your printer from the mac

HP Deskjet 3050A All-in-one printer J611 series - mavericks and wireless set up

Hi
I have a HP Deskjet 3040A All-in-one printer J611, I have had this printer for about 2years and everything worked perfect then I bought an Apple still all was alright but when I updated my software I got Mavericks and ever since then everything went wrong....I have updated my computer and have AirPrint now and also HP ePrint(currently). How ever the printer was not working or connecting.
Problem 1:
When I tried to fix the problem I uninstalled all HP drivers to reinstall - found that you have to install the apple app Done!(Airprint)
The printer was picked up by the computer and I can scan but I can not print, I'm using the USB cable, and when I print the computer shows it is printing and the printers lights come on but nothing happens(no messages display on the printer) then the computer shows the print is done - but the printer didn't print. Scan is working fine.
Problem 2:
Because of constant problems with the wireless connection I wanted to reconnect it to the router - Restore default.
But now because I don't have the HP drivers, I have no idea how to connect it and I tried both connection ways WPS is not working when I press it on the route...nothing happens and the PIN, where are you suppose to enter the pin, nothing comes up on my computer (USB connected)
I have read the installation pages over and over but can't figure out what is wrong, any advice would be appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hi Lilly4,
I can certainly help you get the printer on the network and working again.
Follow the steps in this thread to put the printer on the network without using the software or the WPS button. I believe we have success doing it this way.
If you continue to experience an issue after the printer is on the network, please let me know. Thanks.
Hope this helps.

How do I tell the printer the new SSID and wireless key?

Hi,
I have a HP Laserjet Pro Color MFP M175nw and it works beautifully. However, today I replaced my wireless router and thus have a new SSID and key. I cannot figure out how to tell the printer the new router info - it must be very simple. Please help!!!

Hi @wirelessfun,
I understand that you need the printer setup on the new router. I can help you with this.
Restore the printer's network defaults first.
Touch the Setup button. (wrench)
Select Network Setup Menu.
Then select Restore Defaults.
Print out a configuration report to make sure the IP address is 0.0.0.0.
Printing a Configuration Report.
Select Method one under the operating system.
Follow these steps to setup the wireless:
On the printer touch the setup button, (wrench) then select network setup menu, select wireless menu, select wireless direct and turn it on.
On the computer, in the bottom right corner click on the wireless icon and select the printer from the list to connect to. Then open Internet Explorer and type in the IP address (192.168.223.1) for the printer in the address bar.
This will load the embedded web server for the printer.
Select the networking tab, wireless on the left hand side.
Fill out all your network information, select infrastructure, select your network name, put in password and type of encryption. Apply settings.
Click on the wireless icon and connect back to your network name.
Print out a configuration report to make sure the IP address is valid. (192... or 10....)
Run the installation again or run the add printer wizard from the devices and printers.
Test the printer.
Let me know how this goes for you!
Have a great day.
Thank You.

Airport extreme and wired and wireless printing

I have connected an Airport Extreme base station (AEBS) to my cable modem and my Canon S820 printer to the USB port on the AEBS. My wired connection (via ethernet port) is my tower G4 and the wireless is connected to my macbook. As I understand it, the printer can be accessed via the ethernet port (which feeds the G4 its internet connection) on the wired computer. The problem is; on the macbook, it recognizes the the printer and can print with no problem. On the G4 wired, it cannot find the printer. I have tried the trouble shooting suggestions of turning off the printer and airport and reconnecting power to re-establish a connection, but it does not recognize the printer on the wired computer. Am I missing something here? I have been completely unsuccessful trying to resolve this issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the link, but the post did not resolve the issue. I am closer to a solution, but not able to print yet. Reloaded driver, restarted printer and airport and am able to get the correct path to the airport, but for some reason, I get a message that the printer has a communication error and to check that it is plugged in (yes), powered on (yes), and properly connected to computer (well, according to bonjour it is). So, the quest continues to resolve printing.

Is it possible for me to move my movies and tv folder to a second hard drive on my computer to free up space on my main hard drive?

The main hard drive on my laptop is close to full, and it's the movies and tv folders of my itunes that is taking up pretty much all the space. I was just wondering if it were possible to move just that folder onto a second hard drive my laptop has and still be able to view the videos on itunes. Also, is it possible to tell itunes where to download future vidoes?

You can move the entire iTunes Media folder to another drive.
This Apple document will walk you through it -> iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder
If you just grab the movies folder and drag it to the external drive, iTunes won't know where the movies are.

Is it possible for my printer to be wired and wireless?
