Painfully Slow Airport Express + HP Deskjet F340 All-In-One

I have high speed service through comcast. When the ethernet cable is plugged directly into my computer, everything works great, quick as can be. When I have it plugged into my Airport Express, it slows down to rates 1/10 of normal. I show full signal bars and my airport express is literally two feet from my desk. I've tried with and without inter. robustness to no avail. I am in an apartment complex which has at least two other wireless networks in it. I've looked through the forum postings thus far but have not found a solution. Suggestions?
Second issue, I have an HP Deskjet F340 All-In-One printer. It is not among the HP printers listed as supprted with Airport on the HP website. Is there anything I can do/download/kick to make it work?
Thanks!

Are you sure you have set the base station to use 802.11g? Open Aiport Admin Utility in Applications>utilities and set it to use 802.11g. Also, interference from cordless phones and other wireless devices can cause trouble.

  • Airport Express and HP F4180 All in One Printer

    Hi 
    I just bought an Apple Airport Express to connect my F4180 to my wireless home network. This F4180 used to be connected directly via USB to my Vista PC and was available to the other laptops by sharing the printer. This worked ok, but I always had to start this specific computer to make the F4180 available for the other laptops.
    After installing the Airport Express and Bonjour everything seemed perfect, but after the first print I noticed that only 60% of the page was printed and an error occured. I tried everything, installing, reinstalling, deleting, reading forums, helpdesks, etc, etc, but did not find an answer.
    Does anyone have a clue?
    Thanx in advance
    Henri
    Vista,
    HP F4180 All in One printer,
    Apple Airport Express (latest version),
    Apple Bonjour (latest version),
    Linksys E200 wireless
    Apple Airport Express installed as extension of existing network

    This combination SHOULD work but it often does not.  I have replaced several base routers from non-Airport to Airport and resolved issues like this - USB printers, AirPlay issues, etc.  Its the only way I know how to make it work, sorry.

  • Issue with HP Deskjet F2180 All-in-One

    Hey all...
    I have the HP Deskjet F2180 All-in-One Printer/Scanner/Copier... It works fine when plugged directly into the Imac, however when its plugged into the airport express its prints fine but i cant scan anything... The error basically says that there is no scanner connected.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Cheers

    The Airport Express (AX) and printer seems to be working fine. While your AIO is designed to do printing, scanning & copying the AX is ONLY designed to do printing. My suggestion is either to plug it back in using USB to gain it's full functionality or get yourself a true wireless AIO (HP has many that start at about $129 USD) and then you can enjoy all the features wirelessly.

  • Printing problem with HP deskjet 3050 all in one J610 series

    I have a HP deskjet 3050 all in one J610 series which I am using with Windows Vista Version 6.0 (Build 6006: Service pack 2).  Connecting is by USB port.  I have not used the printer for some time, but have done all the maintence checks & it is good to go.  When I want to print a letter the only thing that gets printed is the email address which is coloured blue.  I think the problem is in the settings of the printer features.  I can print the letter in gray scale but this is not easy to read and not suitable for business dealings.
    I would appreciate help with this problem.  A definition of the terms used in the printer features might help me resolve it by my self.
    Thanks

  • HP Deskjet F4200 All-in-One-series printer

    My printer shows an E in the start copy window and it says by black ink is low, which I just replaced brand new last week and it was printing great until last night. What do I do?

    Welcome to the forums Natalee!
    I saw your post about the issue you are having with your F4200 model showing you an E and giving you a low ink alert for the black cartridge. If you have already tried a new cartridge, please let me know which model of F4200 you have and I will look for troubleshooting guides for you to try.

  • Is it possible to connect HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series Wireless printer without USB cable?

    my mom recently bought me the HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series so i have an at home printer for school work. but when we bought it we did not know there was a certain USB that had to connect to the printer. so we bought the wrong one. now i have a project due and i cannot print. we have a small USB that fits it but its hard to connect it to the computer and printer because its so small. so if we can have it sent to the printer without the USB that would be perfect!

    Hi,
    No, in many cases printers won't come with USB cables. You need a cable which is similar to the following one:

Pls help me to fix this one. Thank you...

    Hi jkshipra22,
    Thank you for your reply! For further assistance I will need to know:
    If the printer is able to make copies by itself. Copy Text or Mixed Documents.
    If the power cable 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 our HP Print and Scan Doctor, and let me know what happens.

  • DESKJET 3050 All-in-one J610 wont do anything

    I have a Deskjet 3050 All-In-One J610 Series that won't do anything. I can't get it to print, scan, copy. I have unplugged the power while it was turned on trying to reset the machine but it did nothing for my problem. I know it is not an ink issue because the printer will print out the onboard game pages but that is all it will do. Anybody have any suggestions? Thank you

  • HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer driver not installing after upgrading to Windows 7

    I have a HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer. I was working fine in Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
    Once I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit the driver is failing to install.
    I have tried all the solutions provided on the HP website but none of them worked.
    I also wrote a mail to HP support but they replied that its out of warranty hence they will not be able to help.
    If some genius can help me I will pray for him/her that all his/her wishes come true.
    Thanks you in advance.
    Imroz Baig

    I just got my HP Deskjet F2120 working in Windows 7.  Here's how:
    Insert the setup disk in your CD/DVD drive.  Choose to view the files in Explorer.  Scroll down to the file "Setup," which is identified as an application.
    Right-click the file and select "Properties." Click the "Compatibility" tab at the top of the resulting window.
    Check off "Run this program in compatability mode for:" and choose "Windows Vista" from the pop-up menu.
    ALSO check "Run this program as administrator" at the bottom of the window.
    Press "Apply," then "OK."
    Now you can double-click the "Setup" file and run the software installer.
    It will 100% work inshallah...

  • The HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 series printer I just bought is not compatible with my Mac Book Pro.  What do I need to do?

    I recently purchased an HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 series printer and it is not compatible with the version of the operating system on my mac book pro.  I am currently running on OS X 10.4.11 and the printer is compatible with v10.5 or higher.  What can I do to update the operating system on my Mac Book Pro? 

    10.5 will be harder to find & more expensive, I think I'd go for 10.6
    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    Apple no longer has it for sale.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

    It looks like they might still have it...

  • Deskjet 2540 all in one printer - does the scanning work with Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1 ?

    I was trying to scan a document using this new printer and my Mac OS Yosemite 10.10.1 and I cannot even find the page that allows me to scan since now it is all through the computer.  Is this printer compatible with this operating system? and if so, what can I do to see the page where the file actually shows up to scan?
    thanks,

  • After upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 My HP Deskjet F4580 all in one printer no longer scans. How can we fix it?

    Hi All,
    I recently upgraded to Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks, but now my HP Deskjet F4580 All in one printer will not scan any documents either as PDF or as JPG, how can we fix this?

    I have simialr problems, after i scanned the ducuments or pictures, i can save it for only once, but the file is just black pictures with many lines through them. When i try to save it again, then it says ''An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to.  Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.', which then doesn't allow me to do anything of saving the file or even just to print it out.

  • 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.
