Officejet All In One 6600 - Print from all Laptops but not Desktop

I got this printer for Xmas and have spent hours trying installing, reinstalling using Scan/Print Doctor software, etc. I run a home network through Uverse Gateway. The router is a 2Wire 3800HGV-B. I am not runing a firewall on my desktop just A/v Avira. I can ping the printer successfully from my laptop, but just can't print to it, Running Win 7. Connected to network through Ethernet cable to router.
The printer is gryed out. When I go to device manager I find that it has a Code 28 stating driver is not installed. When I try and install the basic driver the OJ6600 exe file just hangs on Checking Netowork Environment.
In one of my previous installations I did get it to work through a USB cable, but find it totally impractical (distance) and part of the whole reason we got a wireless. I now save docs on flash drive, take them to Laptop to print. Have called support with no luck. Most recently changed ports, but realize something does not allow the driver to install which I can not figure out.

OK, print off a network configuration page.
Press the Power button ( ) to turn on the product.
Touch the Right Arrow ( ) to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup ( ).
Touch Network .
Touch the Down Arrow ( ), and then touch Print Network Configuration.
NOTE:
Your product's printed configuration page might look different than the example in the following figure.
Figure 8: Example of the Network Configuration Page
Image: An example of a Network Configuration Page
After this open Internet Explorer and in the address bar type in the IP address it gives you on the network configuration page, and then hit enter.
This will bring you to the printers EWS. Once you're on the page go to the tools tab, and then scroll down and select print self-test page.
Let me know if it prints the test page out.

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop

HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop. I get an error stating "unable to communicate with printer"

Hi Melatina66,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that when trying to print from your laptop that you get a communication error message.
To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
1)       How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet or wireless)?
2)      When you installed the printer on your laptop did you set it up with a USB cable? If yes, did you switch the connection type on the laptop from USB cable to ethernet/wireless?
3)      What version of Windows operating system are you running on the laptop (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, etc)?
4)      When printing from your iPhone are you using Apple's AirPrint or HP's ePrint app?
Thank you.
Regards,

My wireless hp 5660 envy printer prints from my iPad but not my mac book pro

I can print from my ipad but not from my mac book pro, when I try to print from my Mac Book Pro the page just comes out blank...

Hello @leafgirl ,
Welcome to the HP forum.
I understand you can't print from your Mac book pro. I would like to help.
Since your iPad can print I think it is a software issue.
Go into system preferences and remove the printer.
I would also uninstall the HP software if any is present.
You should then verify and repair the disk permissions.
Then do an Apple update.
Reboot your Mac book pro.
Then install the HP software.

Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade. I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
Are others having the same problems?

Try this. Worked for me.
- turn off your router
- turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
- turn off all iDevices
- do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
- turn on your router first
- ran the network set up wizard
- give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
Something which you don't have used before.
- turn on your Mac's and add your printer
- turn on your iDevices at least.
Should work after these steps.
It worked for me including all iDevices.
iOS and Yosemite

I Can print from my iPhone, but not from my iPad. The options
select a printer and number of copies are active. The print
button is not active ( hot ).

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

if the printer don't support that then you need to find a printing app in app store
which will act the role as printer driver for the device to speak with the printer

Officejet 6500A Plus Suddenly only prints red for most but not all occasions.

In the middle of printing a report it switched to RED ink. I bought and replaced black cartridge... though it still had ink. (NO SUCCESS) It prints BLACK for copies, for documents on Pages (I Mac) and from wife's laptop that is connected. SOMETIMES IT PRINTS BLACK when I click on PDF and Print.... but not all the time. It ALWAYS PRINTS RED when I print an e mail. No TROUBLESHOOTING suggestions seem to fit this irregular problem

PDF's are typically send to the printer as graphics, which may cause them to be printed with the color cartridge rather than black. If your cyan cartridge is low (or not working) the print will appear red. To address cyan not printing properly the document here may help.
Depending on your OS you may be able to set the printer to print in Grayscale and Black ink only.

TC for wireless router - wireless printing from MBP ok, but not WinXP

Would love some help so that I don't pull what hair I have left. Recently upgraded my wireless router to TC. I have a MBP, MB and iMac all working fine (MBP and MB also using Time Machine fine). I have an HP Photosmart 3310 all-in-one setup wireless. All Macs can print fine. However, I have a WinXP machine that can't. I deleted the original printer on the Win machine and used Bonjour to set up the new one. It sees the printer and installs fine. In fact, I can even use the scanner (hitting the IP through web browser) however I cannot print (from Win only!). Anything I send to it gets a "this document failed to print" error. Any ideas?
I double-checked, latest printer version for Win and latest Bonjour version.
Thanks in advance!

There is a small manual for sale (113 pages) from the Kelso Consulting Group dealing with this problem.
The Title :
How to Network Mac OS X Leopard with Windows Vista and XP.
This is extremely correct and good.
The only problem it cost something about 30-40 $. It is some time I bought it on-line, I forgot the exact price.
As you use XP it will help.

Getting HP Officejet 5600 All-in-One to print from wireless network?

I have the printer, via USB cable, hooked up to my desktop. I have both my desktop and my wife's notebook hooked up to our wireless network via Cisco Linksys WUSB600N USB adapters. Using Cisco Linksys WRT610N router. The Best Buy sales person said as long as I had the printer hooked up to my desktop and my desktop was on or in sleep mode that we could print from my wife's notebook. I have added the printer driver to the notebook. Now I cannot even get a test sheet to print using my wife's notebook. The printer still prints from my desktop. Do I have to hook the printer up to the router via USB cable to get this to work or what? This wireless thing is still a bit new to me. Any help, suggestions and/or answers will be greatly appreciated. I eagerly await your helpful replies. Thanks!

I know I'm likely bumping an old topic...but hopefully this will help someone else.
This *is* possible.
The best way is to enable sharing on the primary (desktop computer that sleeps.) computer after installing it properly on the desktop. Find out the IP address that your modem has assigned to this computer, save it!
Then, on the laptop, go into the "run" menu and type in the IP address of your desktop, starting with "\\."
(So, if your IP is, 123.456.7.890. You would type into the run box of your laptop, "\\123.456.7.890" without the quotes.)
At this point, you may be prompted for a username and password on your laptop. Simply put in any username and password that you have on the desktop when you first start the desktop up. (If a menu requesting username and password does not appear, simply move on.) I would advise you to check the box labeled "Save this information."
At this point a new window should appear, it will show all network resources available to you on the desktop. If you've shared the files properly on the desktop, the printer should be showing in this menu. Simply double-click on the printer that you wish to use, and voila! Your laptop should install all of the required drivers and be connected. Be forewarned, your printer must connect directly through to the desktop computer. DO NOT have the printer connect through a USB hub before it reaches the desktop, this may cause communication issues later on.
There's really a bunch of guides out there on this type thing, but you do have to search for them. I hope that I managed to help you and anyone else out there that's wondering the same but can't drop money on a printer that's brand new.
(Lastly...if it doesn't want to print. Restart both the desktop and printer. Most of the time that fixes it.)

Using Bluetooth on a C8180 All-in-One to print from Mac OS-X

Dear folks,
I have a new iMac and would like to be able to print from it to my 8180 AiO using bluetooth. My Mac sees the printer (it's paired), and the Mac has the latest print driver installed, and I've verified the bluetooth setup on the 8180, but nothing I do has enabled the printer to go "online" with bluetooth so that I can print. Of course, I've verified the printer is fine with a cable connection. Does anyone have any idea if this should work, and if so, what else I may need to do to make it work?
Please feel free to copy your responses directly to my email: <text removed for privacy>
Thanks.

did you ever get a response elsewhere? having the same issue with a c5550. no crash though, and it even shows up in the printer queue, but always say disconnected. tried to edit serial port options. says it's connected for a moment. try to print. still disconnected. green light goes off.

My 6310 All in One will print a test page but will not print from Publisher, Notepad, etc. WTH?

My HP 6310 will print a test page fine, but will not print from Publisher, Notepad, etc. It goes thru the motions, but the image printed is almost not there. I have new ink cartridges in it. I have adjusted the print settings. STILL won't print properly. WTH???

Hm, okay, thanks for getting back to me again!
Try power cycling the network devices:
Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer and test print again.

HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z Wireless connection prints from Windows Vista but not from Windows 7

HP Officejet 4500 G510n-z printer appears to be connected to my Dell Notebook running Windows 7 on the HP Solution Center page but does not print.Documents just get stuck in the que. It was printing then it wasn't then it was then it wasn't. The printer works when I print from an older notebook running Vista. The last time this happened, I uninstalled and reinstalled HP software and that didn't seem to help. Then, for some inexplicable reason, printing started working. Now it has stopped working again.I can scan from the Windows 7 Notebook but no printing. I've tried all of the troubleshooting tools I could find without success. Thanks for trying to help.
This question was solved.

Hello-
It could be caused by a couple things :
1. Firewall on PC or in router.
2. wireless interference (ie microwave, cordless phone base @ 2.4 Ghz)
3. distance from router
4. corrupt print driver.
Turn off any firewalls you have and move anything that can cause interference away from router.
If none of the above resolves issue, I'll have you install another print driver.
Click on start.
Go to Devices and Printers.
Click on Add a Printer.
Add a Local printer. Create a new Port and choose "Standard TCP/IP port.
Hit Next.
Type in 192.168.1.12 in the Hostname or IP address box. (uncheck "Query the printer" box)
Hit next.
When the Printer List opens up, click on windows update. ( this will take a few mins)
After the box shows up, Pick HP (not Hewlett Packard) on the Left and pick "Deskjet 990c" on the Right.
Click next, set as default, and finish.
Try to print using the Deskjet 990c.

HP Officejet 6700 Premium - Won't print from my laptop.

HP Officejet 6700 Premium - Microsoft Windows 7 - I get a message on my Dell Laptop that says my printer is offline. The connection between the laptop and printer is wireless. I can run copies by placing them on my printer, but the printer is not reading instructions from my laptop. I cannot even print a test page when the instruction is given from my laptop.

Hello,
In addition to what "banhien" mentioned. Obtain the IP of the printer.
On the PC desktop > START > All Programs > HP > Officejet 6700 > Update IP , then type in the IP obtained from the printer.

I can print from my PC but not scan to my PC

Cant scan to PC, but can print from PC

You should add a little more information to your question!
I’m struggling with scanning to my laptop to.
Using an officejet 6500A connected to LAN with a cable. Laptop is running Win7 with the HP software that came with the printer. Works great for printing, web interface works too. I can see the scanner working when I make a scan using the web interface but I cant seem to scan to my laptop.
At first I launched the software on my laptop.
I walked to the printer, navigated trough the menu and fount my laptop in the list.
While looking at the printer I thought everything worked fine. (noise indicated to me scanning was in progres). But when I returned to my laptop nothing had changed..
Can someone tell me where the result of this scan job can be found? (i'm looking for a .pdf file?)
