Question on HP PSC1350 and network printing

Hi. I have an HP PSC1350 connected to a windows XP computer. I found the printer on the mac through the network, but I'm not sure what driver I should use. I know that there isn't a 100% compatible driver, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to one that would work for basic printing.
Thanks
John

I read MulticastSocket would broadcast messages to all the nodes but all the replies need to come back to the machine who sent out the message instead of the machines broadcasting it back again.
I used MuticastSocket to broadcast and then DatagramSocket to send message back only to machine that made the request.That does what you said above.
Is there another way to do a network check to see how many users are running the same program and collect their replies?There's nothing wrong with the solution you have.

Wireless and network printing transcript for Meet the Experts

On March 16th, HP hosted its first online chat event on wireless and network printing. Below is a transcript of that session.
I am in the process of planning the next chat event. I would love to hear what topics would interest you, what day of the week and time is best for you, and if you think an hour is too long.
So, if you get a minute, please let me know.
Here's the transcript:
SiobhanF-HP: Welcome! Cameron, Craig, David, and Jim are ready to tackle your questions.
SiobhanF-HP: Just to remind you if you want to ask a question, you must be a member of the HP Support Forums. If you want to join, go here https://passport2.hp.com/hppcf/createuser.do
nc256: Do I need a wireless router to hook up my wireless printer?
CameronL-HP: No, but most people will want to do it this way. You can use a feature called an ad hoc connection to avoid using a router, but it is only covered under an older standard that is slower and less secure. Also, without something to route traffic between the local network and the internet, you cannot get an internet connection. Using a wireless router makes setting up a wireless network easier, and it will generally make the network work better too.
jest1: I've seen some hardware in stores for a "print server" hardware device that attaches to a network. Is this something that I need in order to run a printer over a network?
CraigB--HP: Not if you have a printer that has a network connection built in. Many models of HP computers are ready to be connected directly to your wired or wireless network.
katiepage: How can I print when I am using a VPN?
DavidH-HP: VPN connections generally hide the rest of your home network to increase the security of the VPN connection. A printer on the network isn’t a security threat but the VPN doesn’t know that. It just hides everything just to be sure. That means that when a VPN is active you need some way to connect to the printer other than your home network. Bluetooth, USB, and even printing to a thumb drive and plugging that into the printer are all ways of getting your print job to the printer that don’t go through your home network.
SiobhanF-HP: If you have specific product questions, the more information you give us the better we will be able to help you. Getting your exact model number; any error messages; a description of your wireless network including what kind of security you have, what wireless-devices are connected to your network, and your IP address will go a long way to helping us answer your question.
MelissaP: Why would I want a wireless printer?
CraigB--HP: The main advantage of a wireless printer is the ability to place the printer somewhere in your home or office even if this is not near your router or computer.
Deltan: What is the maximum distance I can have between my router and my printer?
CameronL-HP: It does depend on your environment. Without interference about 25 feet. Walls and floors and other objects can reduce this. The types of walls are important. For example, mirrors and outdoor walls will greatly reduce the indoor range.
jest1: Is there a preferred wireless router type or brand for wireless printing compatibility? We are using a Linksys 802.11g router in my home.
JimB-HP: In general, any wireless-router from a name brand manufacturer that has been Wi-Fi certified is compatible with our printers (look for the Wi-Fi logo). We use Linksys in our lab with great success.
nc256: Are there any digital cameras that can send directly to an HP wireless printer for photo printing?
DavidH-HP: Many printers support a feature called Pictbridge. If the camera and printer both supports this feature, the camera can be plugged directly into the printer to print photos. Or are you asking about printing over a network connection?
KevinW: I keep hearing that you shouldn’t use default settings for a network. Why?
CraigB--HP: There are three reasons not use default settings: First, wireless-routers do not have any wireless security enabled by default. Second, you will be using a common network name in which case you may connect accidentally to your neighbor’s network. Third, your wireless-router is accessible by inadvertent guests who may change the configuration of your wireless-router without your knowledge or use your internet connection without your permission.
Bodie08: I have an HP Lan attached printer and Windows XP on my home network. Is there a known setting (Firewall/port/other) or patch to address the issue of hpqtra08.exe hanging on Windows XP Shutdown? A number of us in the forum have identified this issue. Thanks!
DavidH-HP: This problem has been seen in the past but there were attempts to address it. Have you checked to see if there is a later release of software available on the web? (hp.com)
ZhuLee3: How old is wireless printing technology? I noticed all the experts have around 20 years of experience with it, was there wireless 20 years ago?
JimB-HP: Wireless printing first appeared with the introduction of the 802.11 standard in late 1990's. HP has been making wireless printers since 2003.
lpeterson123: What makes wireless so flaky at times?
CameronL-HP: There are lots of reasons. Wireless signals are affected by distance, walls, metal objects, and other wireless devices like cordless phones. However, most of the problems seem to be from how the network or how security software is configured, and these can also cause things to fail only occasionally or in certain situations. Having a good wireless connection between a PC and printer involves several hardware devices and lots of software made by different companies that all have to work together; if something is not quite right in any of these things then the whole solution looks flaky.
Bowman16: I use a Mac, are there any features that would not work if I was to set it up for wireless use
DavidH-HP: All the features will work on a Mac if you install the full HP software solution.
jest1: Thanks for the answer on the router question. The next question, then, is to ask what would be a recommended consumer-grade wireless-enabled printer (or series) just so I can start my research.
JimB-HP: Any of our Photosmart or Officejet wireless printers will work with Wi-Fi certified wireless-routers. Our price points really have more to do with how much printing you do. In general, our more expensive printers cost less per page than our less expensive models.
Bodie08: Why would I choose "spooling" on my PC over "direct connect”?
CraigB--HP: In general, spooling allows you to use your program sooner than printing directly.
ZhuLee3: Jim: What is it like to be an "HP Printing Expert"? What kind of stuff do you get to work on, on a day to day basis?
JimB-HP: I really like my job -- I've always been a radio enthusiast so working on 802.11 technology is really a dream job for me. I'm also fortunate to work with a great team here in Vancouver, WA. More importantly, I like designing equipment that people use in their everyday lives.
TEACHER1: Recently I changed routers, now I am unable to print wirelessly, even though the SES and wireless network light are steady on my Deskjet 6980 printer. What is the solution? Thanks.
DavidH-HP: The wireless light indicates that the radio is on but does not indicate that the printer is connected to the network. First check that the printer is connected to the network by printing a network configuration page from the printer.
AgentRed: I get my internet with a Verizon wireless broadband card. Someone told me that wouldn't work with a wireless printer. Is that true?
CameronL-HP: Our wireless printers use the 802.11 b, g or n standard which is not compatible with the wireless cellular standard. It would be like trying to connect to a wireless network using Bluetooth. They are different wireless technologies.
DavidH-HP: Regarding the Verizon card, it is true that you cannot connect the printer over the Verizon connection, but as long as your laptop has Wife you can print to the printer over WiFi at the same time that the Verizon connection is active. This should not be a problem.
jest1: Is there a "minimum" internet connection that is recommended for wireless printing? We live a bit far from the DSL CO so our connection is sometimes flaky. I would guess that incoming speed shouldn't affect my local wireless LAN but I want to ask it anyway
CameronL-HP: There are 2 parts to your home network. 1 is your wireless router which manages your local network equipment, then your network connection to the world wide web which your DSL provider gives you. The connection speed of your local network is not affected by your internet connection speed.
Bowman16: Are any HP printers 802.11n? I do not want to add an 802.11b,g to my network and cause it to slow down.
JimB-HP: Currently, our printers comply with the 802.11g standard. We are investigation the emerging 802.11n standard.
ZhuLee3: Will there be a transcript of all the questions and answers from this chat available for viewing after the session? I think I missed some questions at the start.
SiobhanF-HP: The chat event begins when you joined. Sorry that you can't see what was said before you joined. I hope to have transcript posted tomorrow or on Wednesday at the latest.
nc256: Where is the future of printers headed? Does HP have any interesting plans with printing technology? And what’s your opinion on whether or not color laser printing will ever approachthe photo realism of ink jet color?
JimB-HP: The future of HP printing will be characterized by wireless connectivity to not only computers but to mobile internet devices. In fact, as mobile devices become smaller (think phone or netbooks), the need to print from your mobile device might become more relevant.
jest1: Am I able to print from my iphone to a wireless printer?
CraigB--HP: You can print photos from your iPhone to HP wireless printers and it works great in my experience. Go to http://www.hp.com/go/iprintphoto to get the details.
TEACHER1: Thank you. I printed a page. It shows that wireless is disconnected.
DavidH-HP: Then you just need to input the wireless settings from your new router into the printer. If your printer does not let you input the settings from the front panel, you can use the CD that came with the printer or downloaded from hp.com to configure the printer again ( look for the option to "add a device" ).
ZhuLee3: Question about security... if I get a wireless printer, what’s to prevent other people within range of my printer, from adding it and printing documents? How is this configured on the actual printer?
JimB-HP: The simplest way to secure your printer is to enable WPA-PSK security for your wireless network and to use a security pass-phrase that is at least 12 characters long. This configuration is very safe from intruders for the foreseeable future.
CameronL-HP: It' is also a good idea to use a unique network name, also called an SSID.
carolj: I have a photosmart C7180 and I have it hooked up to my laptop (windows vista) when the setup completed the printer was put in networking instead of printers and I cannot access it or move it out of there. What do you suggest?
CraigB--HP: You might need to uninstall and reinstall. Before doing this, make sure your get the latest driver from the HP support at: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=1153754&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us This is also where you can get a copy of the instruction book.
wizll: Hi, I haven't done much research in wireless printing, but I'm interested as I currently have my printer set up the old fashioned way where it's connected to a networked PC, but if the PC is off I can no longer print, which is obviously inconvenient. Do hp wireless printers have a web gui you can connect to once it's on the home network, or is it simply all done from the printer's interface. I've seen some old wired network printers that only use the printer's ui and that seems like a clunky use.
DavidH-HP: Yes, the HP printers which have networking built-in have what we call an "embedded" web server which allow you to configure settings, check status, and have many other features; on some models you can even scan using the embedded web server.
nc256: Jim: Will color laser printing ever reach ink jet quality for photos?
JimB-HP: While never is a long time, inkjet printers will, for the near future, output higher quality photos.
katiepage: If I'm at home, connected to my office network via VPN, can I access my office networked printers?
CraigB--HP: Yes, when you are connected to the office VPN, you can print to your office printers. However, you will not be able to print to your home networked printers while you are connected to the VPN.
jest1: If a friend comes over to my house with their laptop and needs to print something, are they able to do this just by authenticating with my wireless LAN (assuming I have a wireless printer set up)?
CraigB--HP: In addition to authenticating to your network, you friend will also need to install the printer driver for your printer.
jpszambelan: Is there a wireless USB device of some kind I can connect to my printer if there is no network connection already built in?
JimB-HP: HP sells an accessory that adds Wi-Fi capability to your USB printer (see http://www.shopping.hp.com/product/printer/inkjet/wireless/4/accessories/Q6236A%2523A2L) Also, many higher-end wireless-routers allows USB printers to be connected to them to allow sharing of the printer from the network. Note that this solution often limits you to just printing and not scanning from the network.
rockwoodchev: It seems that my computer can find my printer, but my printer can't find the computer, so that "Scan to computer" won't work. What do I need to do in order to fix that?
DavidH-HP: This can be blocked by security software running on the PC (such as a personal firewall). Make sure that your firewall is configured to allow communication on your local network. You can also unblock specific ports, but the easiest way is often just to allow communication on the local home network. The specific setting varies from firewall to firewall.
SiobhanF-HP: We are nearing the end of our chat session. We only have time for 3 more questions. If we did not get to your question, please post it on the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
SSPatrick: Is it possible to print wirelessly to the same HP printer using both a PC and a Mac?
JimB-HP: Yes -- I do this in my home. I have both Macs and PCs on my network without any trouble.
Bowman16: Any plans to do this again?
SiobhanF-HP: Yes we are.
ZhuLee3: Do all of the experts hang out on the HP community? Will we see you posting there after this?
DavidH-HP: Oh yes, whenever time permits. In addition to trying to help people, I learn things too.
JimB-HP: I'm known as Wi-Fi-Guy on the support forums. I hang out there often helping where I can. It helps me be a better designer.
CraigB--HP: I monitor the forums looking for problems to take back to the development lab for investigation. To date, I have only posted one reply.
CameronL-HP: I haven't been involved in the past but expect to be more involved in the future.
SiobhanF-HP: We only have time for one more question. If we did not get to your question, please post it on the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
ZhuLee3: Thanks for setting this up!
SiobhanF-HP: The transcript will be posted on http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board?board.id=Networking
TEACHER1: Thank you all for conducting this session !!!!
jest1: Is there an OS limitation to print wirelessly?
JimB-HP: All the OS versions supported by the printer as supported wirelessly. In general, we are compatible with Macs, Windows and Linux.
SiobhanF-HP: We are ending the chat event. Thank you for coming. We hope you found it worthwhile. I will be posting a transcript of the event in the Networking and Wireless board in the Printers and All-in-Ones forum. We will be hosting future Meet the Experts chat sessions on a variety of topics, so please tell us what you thought of the event and how it could be improved. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/psg/board/message?board.id=Feedback&thread.id=525

Error trying to print report to both pdf and network printer

Hi all,
When trying to print a report to my network printer or to pdf I get the two errors attached, one right after the other. The resulting pdf or hard copy has almost everything in it, except for three tables which are completely missing. When I go back into the report and open the page with the missing table, the table is no longer visible in the report and I get the second error again. Exiting and restarting diadem brings the tables back.
I've found several threads about pdf and other print errors and tried the solutions there to no avail; specifically the one posted here.
I hope there is a fix to this! These reports are intended to sell management on diadem! Thanks!

Loss of Windows Networking and Network Printing

I am having an issue with an older G4 i-book running Tiger (I have installed the latest updates). Recently I have been unable to print to my network printer (HP 2605 dn)which has been running smoothly for over 2 years. Additionally I can no longer see any windows network folders (Workgroup, MSHome) within the network icon in Finder. I cannot even see the i-book from the 2 other macs in my home which again worked flawlessly up until now. I can connect to the Internet fine and also use Mail with no issues at all. I am connecting to the network using airport to a D-Link access point a short distance away. I must be missing something basic but I cant seem to resolve this one. Any help is appreciated.
Message was edited by: Molaram

Ok, do I ever feel like an idiot. After looking at your response (which I thought would be a complete waste of time)I noticed that the i-book was not even connected to my wireless network! It had grabbed my neighbors WiFi and I didn't even notice. Thanks for waking me up out of the fog. Problem solved. Boy do I feel like a noob.

Windows 7 and network printing with printers with "built-in" win 7 drivers

I'm trying to get network printing (i.e. printing to a printer not attached to the
PC) working.
This works fine for newer printers that have a specific, new Win-7 64-bit driver
written for them, but I can't get it to work for any printers (generally older printers) that just
use a driver that supposedly "comes with" Windows 7.
The problem is, the Windows 7 "Add a Printer" wizard does not automatically find the driver
for these older printers (like the DeskJet 950c or LaserJet 4300n) and so it wants you
to specify the .inf file for the driver package. This is fine when HP supplies a downloadable
driver package, but for these older printers, they do not. Instead HP just says "no
download is needed because the driver is included in the operating system" and to just
plug in the printer (via USB or serial cable) and the OS will autodetect it and set up the right
driver. Unfortunately this plug-and-play solution does not work when you're trying to set up
a PC to print over the network.
What can be done? Is there a generic driver package that one can download so as to
satisfy Windows 7's need for an .inf file?
Thank you very much,
-Chris

When the printer list comes up click on the "Windows Update" box in the lower right. This will update the list of drivers available and will likely take several minutes. Once the update has been done the available drivers will show up.

WRT300N and network printer problems

I have a pc wired into the router and a printer wired into it as well, they work fine. I have a laptop that can access the router wirelessly and it can get out to the internet. When I use the laptop to try and find the printer using the printer setup wizard its not found on the network, all i get is the microsoft windows network option. The Printer is an HP 7780 model and has the wireless option, went with the the cable to try and limit complications. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Depending on the operating system (Windows XP) go to the control panel and click on the Network Wizard and set up both computers and during the wizard it will give you the option to enable File and printer sharing. After you set up your network you should be able to see the other PC and printer from each printer. Also make sure you have TCP/IP enabled by clicking on start>control; panel>Network connections and right click on the LAN (wired or wireless depending on which one it is) and clicking on properties. In there make sure TCP/IP is checked. You may have to install any software on each PC that came with your printer.

Airport express and network printer setup problem

I could not find and add my network printer in my work place only when network is connected via my airport express. I can see the printer when the network is connected by ethernet cable. Note: the printer I mentioned is not connected to the USB of the AE, it is a separate network printer with a true IP.
Is this a firewall problem in the airport express unit? I have the same problem with my ThinkPad too.

Have you tried putting the printer's IP address into the "add a printer" dialog box IP view of the Print & Fax panel of System Preferences?
It sounds like your AirPort Express is creating another subnet that is making it hard to access the printers subnet. You might try putting the AirPort Express into "bridge" mode.

Airport Express and network printer

I purchased a new Airport Express with 802.11n and I can configure it properly with no issues with basic functionality. Connecting my HP Photosmart printer via USB cable also works fine. However, connecting it via ethernet connection is problematic.
The Airport Express does not assign an IP address to the printer. I've validated that the printer is functional by hooking it up directly to my network router and making sure that it gets an IP address from it. That worked fine. However, from the Airport Express I get no IP.
Can someone provide some clarity on how to get the Airport Express to assign my printer an IP address? Or am I barking up the wrong tree and I should just settle for the USB connection?

I can't answer your question, but if you watch my post about ethernet networking you may get some helpful advice. My issue is that I can stream music, and use my usb printer fine, but I can't connect my iMac via Ethernet to the Express. Similar problem to you.
I have tried connecting directly using the default Airport address of 10.0.1.1 and variations thereof and nothing works.
And the amber light is still flashing... is yours? perhaps this is significant.
Also, even though I can't print, my printer doesn't show up in the printers list in the Airport Admin Utility. So it definitely sounds as though there is something fishy going on with the Express not seeing things that are attached to it, or something like that.

HP PSC 1500 and network printing on both Mac and Windows computers

I have an HP PSC 1500 hooked up to a network on my Windows XP desktop, which is the hub for my home network. I've purchased a MacBook Pro and want to be able to use the HP printer but it doesn't appear as a printer option on the MacBook. I've loaded Bonjour Printer Wizard but it doesn't recognize my printer. Does this mean I now need to purchase a new printer or am I simply overlooking a network setting????
Any help would be appreciated.

I managed to figure it out. Read a post by "sebas10" dated Nov 5, 2006. Here are the steps I followed.
1. Install Gimp-print, ESP Ghostscript and HPIJS Foomatic. You will to download them off the Web. Google them to find the sites.
2. Go to "System Preferences". Select "print & Fax".
3. Click on "+" to add a printer.
4. In "Protocol" choose "HP Jet Direct - Socket"
5. Type in the IP address of your print server.
6. In "Print Using" choose HP.
7. Then choose HP PSC 1100 Foomatic/hijs.
And lo behold I finally managed to print to the HP Deskjet F388 All in One after about 6 months of strugling to find a solution. Shame on HP for not providing a solution for this.

Airport and network printer

Well, everything works fine. Internet and mail. But I cannot print. Airport is plugged into an ethernet network. The printer is in it too. A GCC Laserprinter Elite XL 40. Yes, apple talk is acitvated. When I try to ping the printer it says 100 % loss. Could it be the dsl router?

Use AirPort Admin Utility to disable that option. This picture shows the option enabled. You want it DISABLED.

A bunch of questions mostly regarding database and networking.

Hi.
I have developed a swing application and i need it to connect to a server on the network. I have no idea on how to go about this and i need some help and suggestions.
1) Which kind of database should i use? Currently what i have in mind are MS access or MySQL.
2) How do i connect to a database across the network? I do know how to connect to an MS access database on my own computer though.
3) I'm currently working on my home computer and will need to bring the entire app to the intended network for use. What do i need to install on that computer so it will run my app successfully?
4) Is it possible to make my app into a .exe file so that other computers can run it?
I hope you guys can provide some possible solutions to my problem. Thanks.

It could b anything you wish.
2) How do i connect to a database across the network?
I do know how to connect to an MS access database on
my own computer though.
You Just need to know the URL format of the database you are going to use.
If you know the machine IP address where db server is running,port number,
dbname,username,password.
3) I'm currently working on my home computer and will
need to bring the entire app to the intended network
for use. What do i need to install on that computer
so it will run my app successfully?
You can install it in any machine that is in your network.
4) Is it possible to make my app into a .exe file so
that other computers can run it?
You can do it very well. If this is the case why dont you think of creating a web application.
I hope you guys can provide some possible solutions
to my problem. Thanks.

Mavericks and network printing

I cannot get my computer to print from mavericks rending my macbook useless. I was able to print to the canon ir c3080 just before i updated and now I am getting desperate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Trevor62,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are getting a connection error message when trying to enable the web services on your Photosmart 7520 printer.
Please set a manual IP address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have included a link to another post with the steps, including screen shots, on how to do this. Don’t fret that the screen shots are for a Photosmart 7510, the steps are the same.
Please let me know how it goes.

PLE400, PLW400, and network printer WIFI Protected Setup issues

Hi
Okay, I have a Linksys EA4500 wireless router with the PLE400 and PLW400 wireless extenders installed in my house. I set the extenders up using the Cisco Powerline AV Utility by following the directions (Same keyword shared, PLW400 password entered in) and it increased the range of my router effectively. However, ever since I installed the PLE400 and PLW400 I can no longer get WIFI Protected Setup to work on any of my wireless printers. I have two Brother HL-2270DW wireless printers that stopped working when I installed the extenders and cannot be connected to the router since then using the WIFI Protected Setup. What the heck?
Solved!

I held down the reset buttons for 10 seconds on the PLE400 and the PLW400 then set them back up and still had the problem. Then I thought maybe there are firmware upgrades available. Lo and behold there are so I upgraded the firmware on the PLE400 and the PLW400. Now everything works just fine. >.<

Can't print to network printer after application is built

All computers are Windows 2000, LabVIEW 5.1.1. While the application is run from Labview, printing to a network printer works fine(using the Easy Text Report.vi). The application was then made into an exe using the application builder. The development system was removed from the computer and network printing still works ok. When the exe is installed on a different computer (along with AccessHW and CVIRTE5.5) network printing does not work from the application. Other programs on this computer can do network printing.
It appears the development system has installed some files that are retained even after the development system is removed. What am I missing.

Did you create an installer and choose to include NI Reports Installer on the Advanced settings? NI Reports uses an ActiveX component that must be installed.
