Printing on HP P1005 via Time Capsule on WinXP   Errors

Hi
I have installed an HP P1005 laserjet on my MBP and my PC (WinXP)
when I am trying to print locally on each of them (e.g via direct USB plugging)
it works fine.
When I am trying to print via the Time Capsule It works fine for the MBP but doesn't work with the PC. I did the installation on my XP using the Install Printer utility of Bonjour and the printer is being shown the Printer/Fax Control panel but I print anything I am getting an error...
Just wondering if anyone could help out me or suggest me some advice
maybe I am missing a step.
Thanks a lot
Vadim

Lisa,
I should add, I believe that other icon you're describing is there because your have manually mounted the HD on the TC. Possibly via the "Connect As.." feature in the Finder window. It seems the system treats mounting the TC disk this way differently than the approach Time Machine uses to mount the disk - Thus the 2 colored icons for the TC. This condition appears to create 2 mount points for the TC drive which Time Machine can choke on when the next backup attempt is made.
Others have run into connection problems when Time Machine attempts to mount the drive for a routine backup but the drive is already mounted manually by the user.
They get either of the error messages,
"The backup disk image could not be mounted".
"The Backup Volume Could Not Be Mounted"
and the Console log will report,
+Network mountpoint /Volumes/Time Capsule not owned by backupd+
So it's a good idea to unmount the TC drive completely so that the next backup will succeed.
Cheers!

    HP f2280 printing only black&white via time capsule
    anyone have this problem before?

    I have just purchased the latest Time Capsule and have exactly the same problem with my HP F2280 when printing from my iMac. Very odd. So started surfing the web and it appears we are not alone and there is no easy fix. Anyway it appears the scanner will not work via the TC either, never crossed my mind when I purchased it that I would have such problems. Two thumbs down for TC

  • HP 6500 printer not working anymore via Time Capsule

    I used a Linksys access point, and all my printers and Airport Express were working fine.
    But since I swapped my Linksys WRT160N v2 access point with the Apple Time Capsule, my HP 6500 printer cannot be installed anymore on my iMac.
    I have a very flat network :
    Telenet router connected to internet, other side : wired Time Capsule (and then wireless to my iMac, iPhones, iPad and Airport Express), wired ethernet switch with wired Brother Laser printer and wired HP 6500 printer.  All having fixed IP addresses (except of course the iPhones and iPad). 
    When adding the HP printer the iMac system finds the printer as "Officejet 6500 E710n-z (59F608)", but gives an error "Unable to communicate with the printer".
    And to make it totally weird : I'm perfectly able to address the printer from the iMac via ip address in Safari !!
    No double IP addresses are used in the network : swapped the network already several times with different tools.
    Regaring the Airport Express, I cannot set it up again, the light flashes and is not recognised anymore.
    My biggest concern is the HP printer ... weird ...
    Please advise !
    tx a million

    Did you completely remove all earlier instances of the printer and even its drivers. If not do so.. after reboot of the iMac download direct from HP any new drivers they may have and reinstall. We have seen it on other occasions.. it is very stubborn if it has any previous setup or drivers.
    When you swap the two routers.. are you keeping the old IP addressing scheme.. ie moving TC from its default 10.0.1.1 to the Linksys standard 192.168.1.1 .. as occasionally again.. devices can sometimes be finiky off their default.

  • Using Printer via Time Capsule for Windows

    Hi,
    Could you please guide me how can I use printer connect to my time capsule from windows based PC. I can do it from my mac but unable to print it from Windows PC.
    I have also downloaded Bonjour, it detects my HP printer 1018 but when it comes to driver it is not able to locate also tried so many different option for the driver but unfortuntely no luck so somebody please guide me to print (HP Laserjet 1018 printer) from windows connected via Time Capsule 2TB.

    When you setup the printer choose a local printer.. then change the port to TCP/IP and type in the IP of the TC.
    Complete the setup.. and choose the 1018 HP printer drivers.
    That should be all there is to it.
    Download the airport utility for windows and see if the printer is there.
    Ensure you have the TC setup in WORKGROUP for file sharing.
    Make sure the computer is in home.. not work or public.
    Make sure you do not have homegroup activated.
    If that doesn't work turn off the firewall and try again.

  • HP Laserjet 1020 Print Wirelessly Via Time Capsule?

    Is it possible to set up an HP Laserjet 1020 to print wirelessly via time capsule? I already know I have to use the 1022 driver, and my printer works perfectly when the usb is plugged into my Macbook air. I plugged it into the new time capsule I just bought and added it on my Macbook as a network printer, but it wont print. Any tips or suggestions would be extremely helpful! Thanks in advance!

  • TS1253 Print via Time Capsule without being connected to my router

    My router and my printer are in two different places.
    It all prints well when the TC (Time Capsule) is connected via Ethernet cable to my router and printer connected via USB to TC
    Can I use Time Capsule to print even if it is not connected to the router via Ethernet cable?
    My TC is connected via USB to the printer but TC is not connected to the router because the TC and the router are not in the same place. Why can't I print via wi-fi?
    Thanks,
    l.cello

    If I want a fast backup I use the Ethernet cable.
    The Ethernet ports are not enabled when you configure the Time Capsule to "join" the network using wireless only.  You can only backup using wireless, whether you have Ethernet connected or not. Apparently, the "support" folks did not tell you about this.
    I just do not see why this setup would take longer.
    You are kidding, correct?
    Gigabit Ethernet is 1,000 Mbps.
    With a fantastic wireless connection, you might get 200-250 Mbps.  Most users see about 100-130 Mbps.
    As for why your Time Capsule setup will take twice as long as normal wireless .....
    Backups have to make a wireless "double hop".  Hop one is from your Mac to the wireless router. Hop two is from the wireless router back to the Time Capsule.  Two hops = double the time.
    Since you can only use wireless, your actual backup speed will be in the range of 100-125 Mbps, maximum.  When you try your first backup on a Mac, it will likely take days, not a few hours as it should.
    Since you have another hard drive attached to the Time Capsule, any copies of transfers to this drive will be exceedingly slow as well.
    Unfortunately, the support folks did you no favors by providing the steps to this type of installation.
    At least, they could have told you about the downsides.....which can all be avoided by connecting your Time Capsule to your modem/router using an Ethernet cable as the Setup Guide recommends.
    thought that another reason to have and use a TC is to be able to use USB peripherals connected to the TC in wi-fi, like printers. This was the center of my question to start with.
    Easy to do if the Time Capsule is connected to your modem/router using an Ethernet cable.
    If you will, let us know how long that first backup of your Mac takes using your setup.

  • IPhone/iPad 2 Canon MP970 via Time Capsule

    iPhone and iPad says no AirPrint found
    I though I could print from iPhone/iPad to Canon via Time Capsule, or?

    Not sure what the time capsule has to do with it.
    If your printer is an airprint enable printer, then you can use it with airprint.  If it is not airprint enabled then you cannot.
    You can look for apps that provide printing.

  • Printer does not work with Time capsule

    I have a cannon mp960 which up until recently has been hooking up wirelessly to my mac via Time capsule. Yesterday I couldn't print. I was able to print when I directly hooked up the printer to the computer. When I attempt to switch it back it will sometimes find the printer and other times it doesn't. Sometimes it won't let me add the printer (I get an -300 error) other times it works fine.
    Could it be a hardware problem?
    Any thoughts about this issue?
    Thanks,
    Keith

    I found a solution to this problem. Open AirPort Utility>select the Time Capsule>Manual Setup>Select the "Printers" tab at the top>check the box in front of "Share printers over Ethernet WAN port">click update at the bottom and Voila!!

  • Photosmart 6520 won't connect via Time Capsule

    Just bought a Photosmart 6520 printer. I have tried to connect it to my wireless network via Time Capsule but the printer thinks MAC address filtering is turned on so is unable to connect. I have checked using Airport utility to make sure MAC address filtering is turned off, which it is, and all other wireless devices connect without any problem. If I move the printer around the house I can connect via an Airport Express but I don't want the printer upstairs. Seems to be a communication problem between the printer and Time Capsule. I have updated the Firmware on the Time Capsule
    Any one any ideas please?

    Hello Frustrated61,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I suggest that we restore the Network defaults from the printer menu.
    I have also located a document on when the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.  This will give you instructions on how to set a static IP address.
    I have also located an Apple document that gives instructions on how to Set up a printer connected to a Time Capsule or AirPort base station.
    Thank you for your time.

  • I've had a new hard drive installed and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule and now can't connect to the internet although it say Airport is connected. How can I fix this problem ?

    Just had a new hard drive for my iMac and reloaded all my stuff via time capsule, all works fine apart from Safari which won't connect to internet. Airport is connected but each time Safari comes back saying there is no connection....any help gratefully recieved.

    So you have the apple rotuer called a time capsule  and you have complete the frist time machine back up? but there is not internet access ?
    If so.
    Opem airport utiltiy on your Comptuer :
    What is the IP ? > if its 169.254.xx.xx > its a self assigned
    Try power cycling the Internet source  for up to 1 mintue and make sure all the lights  turn off.
    In Airport Utility Version 5.5.3 / 5.6.1

  • VNC remote my computer from Internet via time capsule

    I have several computers connected with Airport via time capsule to Internet.
    When I am out of office, how can I remote one of the computers from the Ipad? I use Mocha VNC
    I´ve been trying but impossible to find the complete IP or DNS name, my IPAD do not find any of the computers if connected via Time Capsule
    I have no prob when connecting one computer to modem directly , It works fine If I write the IP on my IPAD.
    Back to my mac and VNC password settings seems correct.

    Try locking the wireless channels for 2.4ghz.. instead of auto use 1, 6 or 11. Test each in turn.
    I would also suggest using a SMB name.. ie short, no spaces.. pure alphanumeric.
    Did you happen to upgrade to latest iOS?? People are experiencing some bugs.. which is no real suprise.
    Has the phone worked before and stopped working after some change you made.. or have you never been able to connect using this phone.

  • Certain pages won't open via Time Capsule - why?

    First of all, my internet works fine via Time Capsule - except 2 internet pages I cannot open. I tried with my HP Laptop (not via Time Capsule), they work. So it's to the pages fault.
    Does anybody have an idea why? Here are the pages
    www.united-fifa.de
    www.fifa-royale.de
    Until yesterday they worked perfectly fine. But now "the site cannot be loaded" anymore.
    Thanks in advance for help.
    Already tried: Reset Time Capsule, Delete Cookies, Reset Safari, Google Chrome/Firefox (exactly the same pages won't work there either), Restart Computer, Update Flash Player - nothing helped.

    1. Checked with ISP, everything is fine (Pages worked when i used my old HP laptop wirth the same ethernet cable...)
    2. broadband was always fine, even 2 days ago when all the homepages worked
    Maximale Internet-Geschwindigkeit:
    Download 75'000 kbit/s
    Upload 7'000 kbit/s
    3. It's a modem
    4. If I connect my old HP Laptop directly to the modem, all the sites work perfectly fine.
    5. Already reset to standard and i already use ethernet all the time (worked until 2 days ago) - nothing better.
    6. Switched to bridge mode but then i couldn't connect to the internet at all :/

  • Windows XP won't connect to Internet via Time Capsule AE

    I've got a MacBook Pro and MacBook using Airport Extreme via Time Capsule. I recently partitioned MacBook Pro and added Windows XP via Boot Camp. The XP sees the Airport but cannot connect. I've added the same key to XP as used for Mac access, but it still doesn't connect.
    Its a WPA2 Personal Key. XP allows WEP, WPA, and WPA-??? (there are three other letters there that are NOT "2" or "Personal"). It allows one of two "types" that are TKIP or AS? (Three letters that I can't remember.) I'm completely lost.
    I also tried changing channels, but that's frustrating unless I just change from the PC end. I had been changing them on the Mac, then rebooting to XP to see what happens. (Nothing, so far.)
    Has anyone successfully gotten XP on the Wireless?

    XP wireless to a Time Capsule works fine. Problem is, as you've found, choosing the right wireless security, then entering the key in the right format.
    Because of this problem in mixed OS X / XP networks, I've stuck with WEP. It's less secure, but it works!
    I live in a rural area, so wireless security isn't really an issue.
    Try reconfiguring your TC to use WEP. Once you've got it working, investigate the other security options.
