Printing to HP Laserjet 2100 via Time Capsule very very slow

If I connect the above printer directly to my Macbook (OS 10.5.2) it prints fine, at reasonable speed and quality.
Connected via the Time Capsule a half-page text document takes about 4-5 minutes to print.
I have updated the printer driver from this link http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs - the driver name is HP Laserjet Foomatic/hpijs
Using the standard 2100 Kaserjet driver offered by the operating system didn't work at all.
The printer is connect via USB using a USB to Parallel converter cable which again works fine when connected to my Mac directly (and to my PC).
I have restarted the Time Capsule.
What else can I try?

  • Problems with printer and external HD connected via Time Capsule with Windo

    Hello everyone!
    In January I bought an iMac 27 "(OS version: OS X 10.6.2) and a week ago a Time Capsule 1TB.
    I connected the iMac and a laptop with Windows XP SP3 both via ethernet to the TC, and to the USB port of the TC a USB hub to which I connected a Canon iP4200 and a LACIE 500GB HARD DISK.
    I reformatted the hard disk file system to Lacie Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and installed MacDrive 8 in the laptop.
    Now (after formatting the HD), with the iMac everything works: internet connection via ethernet or wireless, printing via ethernet or wireless as well as hard disk connection via ethernet or wireless.
    Laptop, instead, is only able to connect to the internet via ethernet or wireless while it isn't able to see and use printer and external hard drive, even though I installed AirPort Utility for Windows!
    The laptop also detects the AirPort disk of the TC but if I enter the (correct) password I get an error message!..
    Please, somebody help me, I do not know what to do!
    Thanks

    Have you run Bonjour on the Win PC's? Do a search on the support page and there's a description on getting things up and running from a WinPC in a Mac environment.

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • Can't print wirelessly via time capsule on a windows 7 computer

    I have an epson rx580 printer that when attached to my time capsule, I can print wirelessly with no problem on my Imac however I can't get my Sony / windows 7 laptop to print properly via the time capsule... I have installed bonjour on the laptop and setup the printer with bonjour however the printer will print about a half a page and stop and get stuck until I turn it off.. I have downloaded all the latest windows drivers and the firmware to the time capsule is up to date. Does anybody have any experience with getting windows 7 to print properly on a time capsule?

    Have you plugged the printer directly into the win7 laptop and tried to print, using the current drivers. Is that successful?
    If the job is failing half way through, make sure the permissions are correct on everything and make sure you turn on guest access on the TC.
    Other than that, sorry I don't really know what is going wrong. Sometimes the issue is two way communications is failing. Try plugging the laptop into the TC with ethernet.

  • HP LaserJet CP1025 and Time Capsule printing problem

    Hello. I'm experiencing a problem with network printing with using HP LaserJet CP1025 plugged through USB into a Time Capsule. The problem persists for a long time already. Every time I need to print, I need to reboot my Time Capsule because there is an error in the printing queue, Mac OS X shows a message about some "USB write error", Windows just shows an "error". The only solution to this was rebooting the Time Capsule as told on Apple Support, with unplugging it first, then rebooting the printer, then plugging the Time Capsule. Now even this way doesn't work. This problem is the same on three different computers running Mac OS X Lion, Mountain Lion and Windows 8, so it's not driver problem, however, Bonjour doesn't allow me to use drivers from the printer CD on Windows so I had to install "universal" drivers which allowed me to print. I update the firmware on the Time Capsule from time to time, so it won't help either.  It's extremely annoying to mess around with Time Capsule for half an hour each time I need to print, so I ask for assistance. Thanks to everyone who can help!

    There is probably a whole bunch of different issues happening here.
    Lion and ML have just as much problem with losing connection to the TC as the windows computer will.
    I suggest you do a factory reset of the TC..
    You then need to set it up as a straight SMB (windows networking) device.
    All network names must be SMB compatible. Short, no spaces.. no apostrophe for sure. pure alphanumeric.
    That includes TC name, wireless name/s, passwords of course. and even the hard disk name.
    In the file sharing page I would also turn on the guest access and set the WORKGROUP. Although that is more for disk sharing they should also help print sharing.
    The printer name, I am not sure.. but you want that as simple as possible as well and following the above rules.
    I am not at all sure the latest firmware is the panacea to all ills.. in fact I tend to run any TC i have on 7.5.2 and find it works better. Especially the older ones.
    If it still doesn't work, it is a case of buy a new network printer.. when this lot of toners finish.. buy a new printer instead .. make sure it is network capable. Far better than using usb printers and since printers are cheap cf the consumables.. well worth it.
    Also make sure it is airprint capable and preferably postscript as well although I don't know if the combo is available.

  • Hp f2280 printing only black&white via time capsule

    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

  • I CANNOT PRINT FROM MY IPHONE 4 TO MY BROTHER 8890DW PRINTER WHICH IS CONNECTED TO MY TIME CAPSULE/NETWORK VIA ETHERNET CABLE???

    Why can’t I print from my iPhone 4 to my brother 8890dw printer which is connected to my time capsule/network via ethernet cable???  My iPhone does not even locate my printer,even though I have no problem printing from my Mac to the same printer.

    Typing in all caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read.  Many simply do not read such posts.
    You would need an airprint enabled printer or an app that proides printing function.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 :/
