We have a Lexmark Pinnacle Pro901 and cannot get the printer to work with airport express - any suggestions?

Can anyone give us suggestions on how to get our Lexmark Pinnacle Pro 901 to work with airport express? We cannot get airport express to recognize the printer.

Refresh all your devices before reconfiguring printer to connect to your computer.
a Shutdown computer
b Pull out printer power cord from the socket. Let it stay for at least 30 seconds then plug it back.
c Powercycle your router (unplug your router for at least 30 then plug it back. This will not change the settings of the router. This will just refresh the device)
d Once router is ready , put back brick at the back of the printer to turn it on
e Wait one minute
f Turn on computer

Itunes wont work with Airport Express

Hi,
I have been having issues with Itunes and Airport Express for years. I got if fixed a year ago through Apple, but now that the new Itunes came out, back to square one and frustrated.
I have an IMAC G5 going wireless to Airport Express. There is nothing in the way and I am 5 feet from the Airport.
We worked on this issue on the phone for literally hours over a 3 day period. I cannot remember exactly how we fixed it, because we changed so many settings.
I am opening Itunes, I can see the choices of my Airport Express or my computer or both, I can click on Airport Express and music will last for several seconds to a minute at the most, then it shuts off. The music will stop streaming, my Airport express will go off line, and Itunes will lock up completely. I have to force Itunes closed, log off Airport, log back in Airport, if I am to get back on line.
The one thing I seem to recollect is we changed some sort of preference where the Airport through some thing was trying to force its way into the network, so it would shut it off from logging into the network. I think we changed something in the log on preferences in system preferences, but I am not sure.
I have no idea how to fix this issue and have worked on it for hours, if anyone KNOWS how to fix it, and I have read / tried about 10 different obsurd ways to fix, please give me the information. I have tried re setting up network, logging off, re installing, you name it, so if you do know for sure how to fix it please give me the information.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Can't get my printer to work with Airport Express

I got a new MacBook today, everything is up and running, so is my Airport express with my DSL line, but my printer is not responding to the connection. I plugged in the USB port from the printer to the Airport and the printer and it doesn't work. I restarted things, went to troubleshooting... nothing helped. It's not the printer because if I plug in the printer USB port directly to my MacBook it works. Anyone have any advice? Thank you!

The directiions on your site are for the Printer Setup Utility that was part of OS X 10.3 Panther. There is no optoin for "IP Printing" in the Tiger Printer Setup Utility, so I don't get how everyone was able to follow the intructions successfully. I sure can't. Is it enough to just add the printer normally using the default browser (as a Bonjour printer) and selecting the aformentioned GIMP driver manually? If not, I need help getting instructions that pertain to Tiger IP Printing. Thanks.
Use the process outlined here:

Does Apple list available printers that work with AirPort Express?

Just bought an AirPort Express hoping that I could print wirelessly with my HP 1350 All-in-One, and it won't work. Found out after the fact that my printer doesn't support USB wireless printing.
I'm looking for a basic color printer to work with AirPort Express for wireless printing by other family members, and I'll continue to use my HP 1350 with USB for scanning and OCR functions.
Does Apple provide a list of recommended printers that will work with AirPort Express?

No Apple doesn't any more.
I have been maintaining a community created list.
http://tech.ifelix.net/1013.html
This is an unofficial list of USB printers which are are compatible with the AirPort Extreme Base Station and Airport Express. Printers in bold have been added to the original list that Apple provided.
Printers in dark red are in fact the only printers I have personally tested.
Please also note that due to changes in the firmware of both the Airport Extreme base station and the introduction of the Airport Express some printers which are in this list may no longer in fact be compatible.

Will any non USB printer work with Airport express?

WIll any non USB based printer work with airport express?

If you have an iPad, you might want to concentrate on printers that are AirPrint compatible, so that you can print from the iPad.
See this Apple support document for more details.

Adobe acrobat only prints first page with airport express

I got my printer (HP PSC1315) to work with airport express using one of the solutions described in these forums. Printing is fine except when trying to print pdf files with adobe acrobat, in which case only the first page of the document prints. Preview has no trouble printing pdfs. Anyone else experience this? Is there a solution?
Thanks,
Kevin
PS- my version of acrobat is acrobat pro 7.0.5

Figured it out.
Adobe Acrobat/Reader is apparently very picky about printer drivers.
I had to have the users delete their mapped network printers from their Printers & Faxes window.
Then I opened the registry and went to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3
I deleted the drivers for the printer(s) the customer had mapped (e.g. Xerox 6360DN, .. etc.)
I rebooted the computer
I had the customer logon and remap their printer.
That resolved the issue.

Is your Touch running iOS 5.n? If so, you can administer the AX with the AirPort Utility which you can download directly from the Apple App Store.

Speakers that work with airport express?

Hello all
Can anyone recommend small wall mounted speakers that work with airport express?
Thanks in advance

I would recommend just about anything from either Bose or Audioengine that are self-powered and provide either analog or digital audio inputs. One example would be the Audioengine A2+ speakers.

Does airport extreme 802.11a/c work with airport express 802.11n

does airport extreme 802.11a/c work with airport express 802.11n

"You can use the AirPort Express to extend the signal provided by the new AirPort, but the Express will not extend "ac" wireless since it does not have that capability. The Express will extend an "n" wireless signal if that helps."
This is what I am trying to understand.
So AXTRM w/ sep SSID for 2.4 (b/g/n) - call it SSID1 - and 5GHz (ac) call it SSID2 - WiFi Explorer confirms AC mode on 5G.
Using an AXPRESS to extend - I have the option of SSID1 b/g/n *and* the 5GHz ac SSID2 in the pulldown (it sees both?) --> if I select SSID1, it also extends this same SSID in 5GHz (both showing b/g/n) >> so I now have 3 signals on SSID1 (XTRM 2.4G, XPRS 2.4G and XPRS 5G) b/g/n and one signal on SSID2 (XTRM 5G AC) ac
If I select the 5Ghz ac SSID2 to extend - it prompts me "do you also want to extend (the 2.4GHz SSID1)?" --> select yes and I now have 2 signals for SSID (XTRM 2.4G & XPRS 2.4G) b/g/n and 2 signals on SSID2 (XTRM 5G 802.11ac & XPRS 5G 802.11 a//n)
Is the 5G SSID2 actually being extended from the Airport Extreme to the Express?
The reason I bring this up is I am having a lot of issues since iOS8 came out (especially on iPhone 6). Everything I am reading is pointing to when people have 2 AP's set to use the same SSID. When you walk to a part of the house where 5G 802.11 ac signal marginalizes, the phone does not immediately hand over to the 5G 802.11 a/n Airport Express.
My thought was separate the SSID's but to me, if the Express can't extend 5Ghz from the Extreme, it's taking a step backwards. I am better off getting a more powerful router like an ASUS and going with one AP, drop the WiFi roaming altogether
Any thoughts?

Can't get EPSON nx300 to work with airport express

hey yall
i'm running a 3 year old white 13" macbook with 10.5.7 osx installed -~- having trouble getting things to print via my new airport express. my boyfriend has no troubles with his brand new macbook pro - it just worked instantly for him.
my computer is able to recognize the printer in a 'Bonjour' location when i add the printer, but when i go to print, it just opens an empty print queuueueue and nothing happens.
i tried installing the latest EPSON drivers to no avail, so i deleted all of them, which also didn't help.
eep
kevin

Welcome to the discussions!
Don't have an exact answer because I can't replicate the problem, but will offer a guess for what it's worth.
You are running Leopard 10.5.7 on your computer and the MacBook Pro might be running 10.6.x Snow Leopard, which may have updated printer drivers for the USB port on the AirPort Express.
Try updating 10.5.7 first by clicking the Apple icon at the upper left of your screen and then clicking Software Update. This may allow you to move to 10.5.8, which did offer a number of printer updates.
Then work your way through the Apple Printer Troubleshooting Guide to see if that might help allow printing to occur.

Printers that work with Airport Express

I am experiencing problems getting my lexmark p4350 printer to work wirelessly with Airport Express.
Can anybody tell me of any printer,multifunction device,laser printer that will work with AEX?

MACMV, Welcome to the discussion area!
Be aware that ONLY the printing feature of a multifunction device will be usable when connected to the USB port on the AirPort Express (AX).
