Printing From My Macbook to My WinXp Printer

I just bought a brand new Black Macbook for myself (which I love!) but I have seem to run into a little issue with Network Printing.
I have a Hp PSC1350 All-In-One on my Hp Pavilion desktop downstairs and I would like to be able to print from my Macbook to that printer.
Can someone please provide me with instructions with network printing on a mac and how to set it up? Thanks!

First - driver. The driver provided by HP was written to support direct USB printing ONLY. If your model is compatible with the PSC 1300 or 1310, you can use the hpijs + ghostscript driver set:

Next - setup. Follow this guide:

  • Trouble printing from a MacBook to a network printer wirelessly

    I have a Samsung printer connected to a Windows 7 machine and am attempting to print from a MacBook. I try the usual AdvancedWindows+SMB-addressShare-name technique. When I go to print, the MB asks for My Username and password for the W7 box. Upon entering the information, I receive an NTSTATUS_CONNECTIONREFUSED message and no printing takes place.
    Curiously, a Mac mini (10.5.8 also) which is connected to the network by wire (the MB is connected wirelessly) prints just fine to the same printer using the same configuration.
    Does Anyone have any suggestions as to how to resolve this issue? Can Anyone point Me in the direction of documentation which could help?
    Thanks in advance.

    I figured out the answer using this excellent Web page: http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3000.html.
    The problem was that when I used the "Wizard" on the PC to install the shared printer, it picked the Deskjet driver by default. But the iMac needs to get the printer data in Postscript, which its own driver then translates into Deskjet speak. So after creating the printer on the Thinkpad I had to go into its Properties and change to the Apple Color Laserwriter driver.

  • I have a HP Laserjet P1102w printer hooked up to the USB port of my Airport Extreme. I'm able to print to the printer wirelessly from my MacBook Pro. My iPad (2nd gen) can't find the printer. What do I need to do?

    My iPad is on the same network as the Airport Extreme. The HP printer is on the list of Airprint printers but I'm not using it as a wireless printer, per se, as it's hooked up to the USB port on the Airport Extreme.
    I installed the HP ePrint app on my iPad. Unfortunately, the app could not find the printer either. 
    As mentioned earlier, I'm able to print wirelessly to the HP printer via my MacBook Pro.

    Since I'm able to print to the HP printer from my MacBook Pro using this configuration, shouldn't I be able to print to the printer from my iPad, especially when all of the devices are on/using the same network?
    Not necessarily. AirPrint uses a protocol separate from the communication protocol used for the Extreme's USB port. The HP printer may disable AirPrint when its USB port connected to a valid device, which is my reason for recommending you use it wirelessly.
    From AirPrint Basics:
    AirPrint printers connected using Bluetooth or shared through a USB port of a Mac, PC, AirPort Base Station, or Time Capsule are not supported.
    AirPrint printers connected by Ethernet are supported in OS X.
    You may get more competent assistance from HP. See this HP support forum topic: iPhone & iPad can't Airprint to p1102w LaserJet
    HP's Mac support has always been miserable though. I have been much happier since I abandoned HP and started buying Brother printers. They just work.

    This function is related to the printer driver and the printer you use. If you do not give details, nobody can suggest a solution. Usually, the correct driver solves the issue.

  • Printing to my Windows Networked Printer from my MacBook

    Let me apologize upfront, I'm new the world of Apple, just coming over from the PC world and so these will surely be stupid questions.
    I just got a new MacBook (which I LOVE!!!)
    I have a Desktop PC running XP
    I have an HP OfficeJet G85 connected by USB to that desktop PC
    I have a wireless netgear 802.11b/g router
    WHAT I WANT TO DO: I want to print wirelessly from my MacBook to the HP OfficeJet G85 (as I have been able to do with several PC notebook computers...so I know everything is configured right on that end of things). Specifically, I want to be able to take advantage of the double-sided printing duplexer when printing wirelessly from my MacBook.
    WHAT I CAN DO:
    -I've been able to plug the printer in via USB to the MacBook and install it. (but that's not wireless)
    -I've been able to print wirelessly using CUPS and a SAMBA server, which I DO NOT understand but found some website that told me how to set it up. BUT when using New DeskJet Series CUPS v1.1, if I attempt to do double-sided printing, it causes an error on my printer that halts printing and requires it to be restarted; plus, this give me pretty crummy quality printing.
    WHAT I CANNOT DO:
    -Locate the darn correct print driver file on my MacBook (I know it's there because I installed it as part of the all-in-one software I downloaded from HP and because I was able to install the printer via USB; but when I look at the list of printer drivers, my printer is never on that list AND because I don't know what the driver's name or file extension or location would be on a Mac, I can't hunt it down myself, eventhough the Mac is willing to let me try to).
    -In leu of using HP's specific G85 print driver (which I feel I should be able to do...you'd think their setup assistant software would help, but it doesn't let you navigate through your network to direct it to your printer...if its scan doesn't see it, then it's no help), based on what I've read, my other options are:
    --Buy an HP JetExpress Print Server (too expensive) or Airport Express (which probably won't support this printer or help my situation...am I correct about this???)
    --Use this hpijs ppd thing(from http://openprinting.org/showprinter.cgi?recnum=HP-OfficeJetG85)...assuming all of my conclusions and assumptions above are correct, this is what I need to do...the only thing is I don't understand what it is or what I'm supposed to do with it. After I download the PPD, do I need to download or run something else that uses this PPD file? Am I supposed to put it in a particular folder? I've downloaded the HP-OfficeJet_G85-hpijs.ppd file to my Mac's desktop...what do I do now?
    Thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer!
    Jeff

    Jeffry,

    Thanks

  • How do you setup a canon mp620 to print from a Macbook Pro?

    How can i print from my MacBook Pro with a canon mp620 printer? I have the printer setup with a PC via USB and want to add the MacBook as a new computer and print wirelessly. I have tried the installation cd and updated drivers from canon website but it still wont work.

    I have managed to get my working. Firstly, I googled the CUPS drivers for the printer and then downloaded those from canons website. I then went to print and scan in system preferences and noticed that the printer had appeared there. I believe it was those drivers that made the difference but i was fiddling for hours before that so i cant be 100% sure how i got it to work.

  • Deskjet 5440 stopped printing wirelessly from my MacBook Pro after upgrading to OS 10.8

    My home printer is connected by cable to a desktop Mac (Power Mac G5).  I have always printed wirelessly to it from my MacBook Pro laptop through our home wireless network.  However, just recently I upgraded the operating system on my laptop to 10.8.2.  At the same time, I upgraded the HP driver software (from HP) that is supposed to allow the 5440 to work with the new OS.  Since then, I can print from my laptop if it is connected by cable to the printer, but not wirelessly.  When I attempt to print wirelessly, get a message that says the printer is not connected.

    So you are using Printer Sharing on the PowerMac?  If so, on the PowerMac, go to System Preferences > Print & Fax and delete the printer with the '-' sign at the bottom of the printer list.  Re-add it with the '+' sign.
    Make sure that Printer Sharing is checked and that in System Preferences > Sharing that Printer Sharing is also checked there.
    Now, on the MacBook Pro, go to System Preferences > Print & Scan and click the '+' sign to add the printer.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

    You will need to install an App like Print Central on the iPad to try to print to the printer. It will allow you to print to most printers. Check with their support folks if you need more info.

  • How to print from a macbook to a shared printer hook up to pc

    Hi,
    How I could be able to print wireless from my macbook to a shared printer hook up to a pc. The printer is a DELL 1320C and the pc is a DELL Inspiron. Please help me out with this issue. I do all my stuffs in my mac and when I to print my job, I get a nightmare.

    As long as you have a wireless router connected to your Dell and the printer is set as a shared printer...Just go and print a document and it will ask you what printer you want to use. Use finder to locate the printer from your Dell as it should show up under "shared". I think thats all i had to do when i had a Sony Vio and wanted to print from my MacBook. (You may need to log in as a guest to gain access to the printer.) Its been a while having since upgraded to a new iMac.

  • My HP Officejet Pro 8600 can't print from my MacBook Air

    Hi,
    My HP Officejet Pro 8600 can't print from my MacBook Air. It keeps on showing "The printer is not connected", but the screen on the printer shows connected. I often reset the printer 'EVERY TIME" I want to use it. I also tried to turn off my laptop and printer several times before printing. If I'm lucky enough, it will work maybe for one or two prints. If no luck then I'll have to reset everything again. Sometimes I reset the printer, the printer will not show on my selection.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello boojoo1tw,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're unable to print most times with your Officejet 8600. How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB? What is your operating system on your Mac computer? Click here to find out.
    If your printer is wireless, then I would recommend assigning a "Static IP Address" by following this HP document on Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

    hi FalconMom,
    EWS stands for Embedded Web Server.  You will be able to access the printer EWS if it is connected to the same network as your PC or notebook.  Here are the instructions to connect to EWS.
    Open the embedded Web server
    You can access the embedded Web server via either the network or Wi-Fi Direct.
    To open the embedded Web server via network
    NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP address for the
    printer can be found by pressing the Wireless icon or by printing a network configuration page.
     In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer.   For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web browser:
    http://192.168.0.12.
    To open the embedded Web server using Wi-Fi Direct
     From the Home screen, touch (Wireless) and then touch (Settings).
     If the display shows that Wi-Fi Direct is Off, touch Wi-Fi Direct and then switch it on.
     From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wi-Fi Direct name,
    for example: DIRECT-**- HP Officejet-5740 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your
    printer). Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
     In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.

  • How do I configure my AirPort Extreme to allow printing from my Macbook to an HP PSC 1210?

    I currently have an AirPort Extreme [model A1354] connected by cable to an iMac [3.2 GHz i3 / 10.6.7]. I have an HP PSC 1210 series "All-in-one" printer attached to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. Printing from the iMac works just fine.  However, I cannot print from my Macbook [ 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo / 10.5.8]. While the printer shows up when I go to "Add a printer", I still cannot print to the printer.  When I hit print, the print window closes, but nothing prints.

    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the  AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers.  
    To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at this iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try. 
    Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule 
    Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.
