My computer is not communicating with my wireless printer

My hp computer is not recognizing my wireless HP 8600 printer. The printer has worked fine for the past year. The message says that the printer is off line and to check the cable or network. The printer is working fine because I can print from the two other computer that are connected to the wireless network. I went through the trouble shooting procedures for the network, but the network is fine. Anyone have this problem with the software on their computer?

Airport does not communicate with my wireless printer

Hello all,
I can really use some help here. We have a Canon wireless printer and an Airport Extreme. The printer was working wirelessly until recently and I called Canon for tech support. I was on the phone with Canon for an hour. We have trouble-shot the printer every which way. They are now telling me that the airport is not communicating with my wireless printer. Is there someone that can help me check this?

Earlier G5s had an external T antenna I believe, besides the antenna wire inside...

1. Turn the router, iPad and printer off
2. Turn on the router and then wait 30 seconds
3. Turn on printer and then wait 30 seconds
4. Turn on your iPad and test print.

I have updated my macbook air to OS X Yosemite. Now my computer does not connect with my HP printer 1300. What do I need to do to resolve this problem?

Hello,
I have recently updated my mac book air to OS X Yosemite. Now my mac book air does not connect with my HP Laserjet 1300 printer. Can you please tell me what to do to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
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.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

Ipad 2 not communicating with my HP3050a printer after changing router?

Hi, hope someone can help. Recently changed broadband provider and now using a different router/network. I've set up my printer using the USB cable to a windows laptop and then enabled WiFi as directed. Now the laptop is working fine but my Ipad seems to see the printer on the network but can't communicate with it even though it is designated a shared device. Does anyone have any ideas? Many thanks

My guess is a firewall in the router. You will need admin access to the router (contact the provider). If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the printer. If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a tad and test the printer again. Repeat as required.

Computer not communicating with printer(s) scanner

I recently hooked up an Officejet J6480 wireless printer. I also have a J5780 hooked up via USB. After hours, and I mean hours, of being on-line with Tech Support through Chat and uninstalling and reinstalling, several times, and trying numerous things, neither printer has communication with the computer for scanning. The J6480 will scan if you go through Paint so it is functioning. The J5780 I haven't tested. I have downloaded drivers and every other thing that was suggested and the computer is not communicating with the printer for scanning. I have a Dell computer Inspiron 530S and am running Windows Vista (32) May I also say, that I disable the Firewall & Virus programs when downloading, etc. so it doesn't interfer. I have tried everything but dynamite to get the scanner to respond. I've downloaded the Patch suggested in the drivers listings and everything. Im beside myself because the J5780 scanned fine until I installed the J6480. Now the window on the printer says there are no scan settings available in the window on the printer. Chat Techs, I think, are beside themselves too. I uninstalled the J5780, installed the J6480 and then went into 'Add a Printer'. Everything went fine except the scanner. I get a message from Solution Center saying there is no communication between the computer and the scanner. I think something is missing here. If anyone knows a solution I would be more than grateful. HELP!!!!

Did you do an L3 uninstall of all HP software and start from scratch? The L3 uninstaller should be on the install CD's for each printer. You may have to do a search of the CD to find it.
Tell me what router, ISP and encryption type you are using? Also, what kind of security software are you using?
Have you done a WIndows Update and updated your security system? Do that between the L3 uninstall and the re-install.
There is a lot going on here. I'll hang in there with you...

Computer not communicating with printer

This morning my HP Pavallion downloaded some new updates and installed. After that I consistently get messages of "No communications with printer". It will not communicate with either my printer or pdf writer printer.
I have rebooted computer 2-3 times, restarted printer 2-3 times and still have the issue.
In an earlier note I noticed a recommendation of going back to the original computer program before the updates. I would I do that?
Any recommendations for a fix?
Glen

Hey @papamkoch and @glendodom ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
If you're looking to do a system restore to before the issue started (which I agree is a great idea) you will want to check out this document:
System Restore - Windows 7
How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC - Windows 8
These documents cover the steps to access the restore. If a restore doesn't work you can also try a recovery which will put the unit back to it's original factory condition.
Let me know if the restore works!
Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!
Please click "Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

Imessage on my computer not communicating with my phone. In my computer settings my phone number is no longer an option, just my email. How do I get it back?

HI,
I had this.
On checking the iPhone the iPhone Number was not ticked and the whole option to change it was greyed out.
I removed the Apple ID and waited to see if th Number got ticked (Settings > Messages > Send and Receive).
It did not.
I put the iPhone in Airplane Mode
After a few minutes I "restarted" the iPhone by turning off Airplane Mode
This time the Number was ticked.
I Added the Apple ID and then restarted Messages on the Mac.
I soon got the pop message about the iPhone using it's Number and the Apple ID and Accepted.

My MacBook is not communicating with my desk top to enable printing from my MacBook. I need to find out how to make that happen. I have a static IP address on my desktop but don't know what to do on the Mac Book.

My MacBook is not connecting to the host computer for the printer. The host computer has a static IP address which is different from the IP address that the laptop is looking for. How do I change the laptop so that it looks for the host computer's correct IP? The laptop is connected to the router. I know this because I can get on the internet with the laptop.

The host computer is Dell and the operating system is Windows 7. The printer is an Epson, and it is wired to the host computer with a USB cable. It does have host printing turned on.
The three have been working harmoniously for a long time. The router had to be reset; and after that, the MacBook documents would no longer print.
We created a new static IP address on the Dell but the MacBook is not recognizing it. We have researched the internet trying to figure out how to make the MacBook locate and recognize the correct IP address from the Dell so they can communicate with each other. The laptop is not communicating with the host computer because is is looking for the wrong IP. The host IP is 192.168.1.245 and the laptop is looking for 192.168.15.237.
I hope everything is clear. The person who originally set it up is no longer available to help me. Thank you for any help you may give me.

Make sure you follow these instructions completely with the phone disconnected from the computer. After the reinstallation, reconnect the phone and it should load the new USB driver.

My addressbook is not communicating with iTunes!!HELP!!

I can't sync my IOS devices with my last version of the address book! I updated my address book in my Macbook Pro OS X 10.6.8 and then it is not communicating with iTunes. I tried the 28 step troubleshooting to this issue, my iTunes cache is clean but still not syncronizing... Tried to use iCloud online to upload the vcf cards but in each group it losts a lot of contacts (and I don't know why, because they are far away from the iCloud limits...).

My iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud.

my iWork (pages and keynote) are not communicating with the iCloud. I haven't changed anything and all of the sudden there is no sync happening. My iCloud account is fine as i can create documents on my iPad and they appear on iCloud. However, when i change documents on my mac (documents that are supposed to be in the iCloud), the changes do not sync with my other devices nor with iCloud. Even when i create new documents on my mac and save them to iCloud, all seems okay and i can access them from my mac, however they do not show up in the iCloud and i can't access them with my other devices.
Most recent version of mountain lion updated over a month ago. New iPad in use for over a month.

The same thing is happening to me, Mail was fine about an hour ago and now is rejecting correct password. Typical when today I'm waiting some important emails!

Help DSCC agent not communicating with AppServer or Tomcat?!

Installing Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.3 From Zip Distribution on system running Solaris10 11/08.
Cannot get DSCC to work with either AppServer or Tomcat.
Both AppServer & Tomcat deploy DSEE WAR file and I can look at things that I have manually registered via command line. Cacao agent is running it is just not communicating with AppServer or Tomcat so it cannot commit any actions such as starting and stopping directory instances or creating new directories instances within the web app.
Is this a bug that occurs only when doing a new install using the Zip Distribution?
The Error message I get regardless if Appserver or Tomcat is:
"Could not contact the DSCC agent on <server>. Use the command cacaoadm to check that the DSCC agent is installed and running on port 11169."
I changed to port 11169 because it had a conflict on default port 11162.
Output from cacaoadm & dsccsetup commands is follows:

I started over and installed Glassfish and everything just worked. After the fact I think the real problem was related to the server.policy file. I think this was the problem because using the default appserver 8.2 that comes with Solaris has a different path and I got this same error when tried using tomcat also. When installing glassfish it uses this default path as in the server.policy example as follows so it just worked.
Add the following lines in the {install-dir}/domains/domain1/config/server.policy file
// Permissions for Directory Service Control Center
grant codeBase "file:${com.sun.aas.instanceRoot}/applications/j2ee-modules/DSCC/-"
permission java.security.AllPermission;
Hope this helps some as I was really stuck and confused at the time and just started playing with the stuff. Growing pains. Thanks to those that replied.
Thanks!
