Printer won't work with either computer on the wireless network

Yesterday I went to the HP website and downloaded the rcommended drivers associated with my Win 7 computer and Officejet 7310 printer. Ever since I can't print at all. My other laptop connected to the network (Win Vista) won't print either. My computer indicates that my printer is offline. How do I get these devices talking to one another again
This question was solved.

Download and run this diagnostic, it should tell us what is going on.
The IP address looks right for the printer. The DNS server and gateway (router IP address) are often the same at x.x.x.1
I suspect a firewall issue, but let's see what the diagnostic tells us.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Can anyone recommend a Multi-function black and white laser printer for that works with Mountain Lion? The MFP can be either 3-in-1 or 4-in-1 i.e with fax

I bought an epson xp650 a couple of months ago and cannot fault it. It does everything I require and it is the wifi model so I can print directly from my ipad/iphone. Not sure if you are asking about the colour of the unit or just to be able to print black and white, Obviously all printers will print black and white but just to give you a little more info the printer I bought is the white version and it looks really nice sat next to my imac 27''
Hope this helps.

Printer won't work with Mavericks

Since downloading Mavericks, my HP printer won't work--at the office AND at home. Please help.
I've done everything I think was suggested from removing HP software, reseting printing, factory default of printer--everything!
Please help!

I guess from reading your message that Mavericks just hasn't got the drivers from HP to support this. You don't specify what model printer you are using but I would suggest that this issue here is that either your PH printer is an old model or that you need to go looking towards the HP website and see what their responses are to providing the appropriate drivers. You're not alone sadly and this is the problem when you move forward with the times and the ancilliary equipment you have come to rely on is no longer up to speed. Good luck!

Printer won't work with Yosemite

Wi-fi won't work with either Opera Mini 5 or Mobil...

This has been driving me nuts. My phone connects to wi-fi networks just fine, and wi-fi works fine with the Nokia browser. But I cannot get either Opera Mini 5.1 or Opera Mobile 10 to do it. I set my access points to "always ask", and then select the wi-fi network when the browser asks.
Opera does however work fine going through the cell phone network.
I have tried reinstalling, and also searched through all the phone settings. Same problem regardless of what I try.
The error message is:
"Connection Failed
Content blocked by operator"
What does that mean "operator". Just exactly WHO is the Operator??? It can't be the wireless network, because no wireless network works with Opera--period. Could it be the cell phone company? If so, why would they allow me to use Opera on the cell network but not allow it on wi-fi?
So I called my provider (a small company recently bought by AT&T, but still operating separately). They told me they are not blocking wi-fi on third-party browsers, and it's probably a issue with the Opera software.
I hope someone here can shed some light on this.
Symbian S60 5th ed., Nokia 5530XM, firmware up-to-date

Well I can get it to work by doing this sequence:
1. Use the wi-fi tool to connect to the network
2. Open the Nokia browser, select the wi-fi network, and browse to a web page.
3. Close the Nokia browser.
4. Open Opera and select the wi-fi network.
5. Browse ...
This method has worked over the past day. I discovered it by accident.
Isn't there someone who can explain why I have to go through this process to use Opera with wi-fi on my 5530XM ?

How do I use a wired computer on the wireless network?

I want to hardwire my desktop to my wireless router. I have a wireless adapter and my computers work fine on the wireless network. If I try to plug in the ethernet cable to the router and disable the wireless adapter, it doesn't work. The light lights up on the front of the router saying that the ethernet cable is plugged in and the 1394 network connection is enabled in the "network connections." However, I cannot ping the router when using the ethernet. On the desktop computer, I look in "view workgroup computers" and there are no computers listed there. On the back of the computer, there is a light that lights up when I insert the cable, so I know the computer has detected there is a cable plugged in there.
They way I set up my wireless network is by using XP's tool under network tasks called "set up a wireless network for a home or small office" (which is found in "My Network Places." I don't know how to combine a wireless network with a wired network. Please help me.
I am using WRT54G. We don't have broadband installed yet.

Correct…I would not mess w/ the bios. Do you have an extra cat5 cable long enough to plug into the back of your router to the back of your PC? Hopefully, it was not taken out when the wireless NIC was installed. Do you see a place to plug in the cable on the back of your PC? It looks like a phone connection jack/ modem, only bigger. If not, what kind of machine, OS (Win 2K, Win XP, etc).

HP Printer Won't Work With Snow Leopard

Hi, I hope you can help. I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard and my HP printer won't print. It is a Laserjet 1015 and new drivers are meant to be on the list with SN. My iMac recognises the printer is there but cannot make a connection. I am networking it using an Airport which is working fine. I have even reset the printer system and deleted the printer and added it again but after starting to process a document to print it just stops.
The other thing is that Pages v 1.0.2 also won't work now. I can open the software, but it can't open any existing documents nor will it open a new blank template. This is my work software (I'm a journalist) so this is a real worry. Any suggestions??
Thanks so much
Jo

Hi JoJoh,
I can't be of much help with the printer but I just checked my "Pages" and my version number is 4.0.2. I'm using iWork 09. Perhaps you need to update? I just checked the "Snow Leopard Compatible" site and found "Apple Pages 4.0.2" is compatible. It didn't mention 1.0.2. I'm so sorry. That's pretty rough when it's how you make your living.
As for the printer, I have an HP Photosmart C4580 which wouldn't print. I finally just deleted all the printers on my MacBook and used my Snow Leopard install disk and selected the "Optional Install" which allowed me to just reinstall the printers. My HP is now working fine. I do feel like this is just a work-around until HP gets things sorted out. I say that because even though my HP now works, the only place it shows up is in my users folder. It's not in my Applications folder, but as long as it works for now, I don't care.
Hope I was of some help to you. Best of luck!

Help Ipod won't work with my computer anymore!

I have a 5th gen Ipod and it has been working fine for the first month I've had it but recently I can't seem to get it to work with Itunes or even be detected on my computer. I've already tried all the things it says to do on the support page and none of it seems to be working. I've reinstalled everything and tried the Ipod updater but it won't work. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what should I do? Is there any way I can just get a new Ipod since I've only had this one for a month?

IPod won't work with new computer - please help

When I bought my iPod, I had it hooked up with Computer #1. That went with my ex-husband in the divorce, so I no longer have that computer.
I now have my parents' old computer, Computer #2. My dad has an iPod that was originally used with this computer, but none of his songs or libraries are on Computer #2 anymore. The iTunes library is totally empty. I tried hooking up my iPod, and it said that my iPod was already associated with another computer. So I authorized Computer #2 to play my iPod songs, and that didn't work either. I cannot deauthorize computer #1 since I don't have it anymore. ITunes would not let me deauthorize both computers, like it said you could do once a year.
I am at a loss for what to do. Thanks in advance.
Kim

I have the same problem!! I had my library on a computer on XP and now I have Vista and don't know how to transfer my Vista. If anyone can help please let me know!!!!!!

Canon MF4207 MultiFunction Laser Printer won't work with TCP/IP

Bought this printer. Very cool. Great quality. Fast...
But, we can't even get a "ping" via TCP/IP. We're about to take it back. Looking at other threads, do Canon's not work with Mac's on networks (even though their documentation says they do)?
Anyone with ideas?
Running both from a ether wired imac and a wireless powerbook. All on 10.4.?.
Thanks
Doug

First of all, Canon's designed for network printing do work. Most of the posts you have probably seen are for printers that haven't been designed for network printing, yet the users are still trying to configure them this way???
Looking at the manual, there a couple of things you need to do to print across a network.
As Kappy suggested, the first thing you need to do is configure the IP address of the MF4270. By default, the machine is set to DHCP, but if you don't have something on your network allocating addresses, then it will be set to all zero's.
Now you mention it won't ping, so we could make the assumption that you have set an appropriate IP address for your network and the machine is not responding. To be sure that you do have this set to the same subnet as your Mac network, print a User Data List.
Additional Functions > 11. Report Settings > OK > 2. List Print > 9. User Data List > OK
This will show you the IP address and subnet mask. It will also show you if LPD and RAW (Port 9100) print services have been enabled.
If you do not have an appropriate IP address set, then you need to press Additional Functions and scroll to 12. System Settings.
Press OK and scroll to 2. Network Settings then press OK.
This will show TCP/IP Settings. Press OK.
Scroll to 1. IP Address Auto and press OK. It will show ON. Scroll so it shows OFF and then press OK.
Now scroll to 2. IP Address and press OK. This will show the current address. Using the numeric keypad enter the desired IP address for the printer. Press OK to complete.
Now scroll to 3. Subnet Mask and input the appropriate subnet mask and press OK.
Now you can press the Stop/Reset key to exit and maybe print another User Data list to ensure the settings you entered are correct.
Now that you have the IP address set, you need to install the Canon UFR2 v1.60 driver for Mac OS X. If this version didn't come with the machine you can download it from the Canon web site.
Once you have run this driver installer you are ready to add the printer. Open the Printer Setup Utility and select Add. Select More Printers. Now select 'Canon IP (UFR II)'. This will show a pane allowing you to enter the IP address of the printer. It also wants a queue name. Enter LP for the queue name. Click Add and wait as the driver software will now query the printer and auto select the appropriate ppd. Once this is complete the MF4270 will appear in the Printer List.

My HP Photosmart 385 printer won't work with my operating system - Windows Vista Ultimate. Why not?

Is there a driver that I can dowload so my HP Photosmart 385 printer will work with my Windows Vista Ultimate operating system?

Hey Alyssa426,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
Since the installation disk does not support Windows 8.1, I would suggest trying to download, and install the drivers directly from the HP Support website. I have included a link to the 'HP Deskjet F4200/F4224 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver'. Once the software is downloaded, open the software, and follow through the on screen instructions for installation.
Please let me know the outcome of installing the software.
Thank you.

Airport Extreme won't work with windows computer?

I can't get airport extreme to work with my other computer which is a windows machine. The windows machine can't find the network address. Sometime it does find an address and appears to be connected, however I cannot connect to the internet with that machine. My Mac does work and connect to the internet. Anybody have any suggestions? Thanks.

I have a toshiba laptop and it works prefectly with a conceptronic usb card. But you must set up the Base Station only with the default options. I mean that you can not hide the SSID, or make an access control with Airport Extreme. You only set up the default options and it works perfectly. When I try to place an access control or hide the network then it doesn´t work and wait an ip as you say in your post.
If you want to connect from Windows to the Base Station you need to close your firewall and no other cable into the Airport Extreme, only the cable that you are connecting to access the Base Station. And it will work.

Printer won't work with Ethernet cable connected to AEBS

I've been using my AEBS with built-in modem for a year with no problems. Today I got a DSL modem (finally available in my area) and when I connected the ethernet cable from the DSL modem to my AEBS, my printer stopped working. It now gives the following error message: "Printing Problem - the process "mdns" stopped unexpectedly with status 1". The printer is still available from the printer setup utility and I tried deleting and reinstalling the printer
I have tried several different variations of restarting the modem and AE in various orders, but no joy. However, when I disconnect the ethernet cable from the AE and restart it, I can print fine.
I have three computers on the network (G4 MDD PowerMac, G5 iMac, and C2D MPB) and I get the same error message from all three.
Any suggestions (perhaps an interpretive dance to the network gods?) on how to get both the DSL and printer to play nice at the same time??
Thanks, Eric

see if anything in the Printer Troubleshooting Guide helps.

Printer won't work with elements 9
