Samsung 325W Printer Problem - Connecting wirelessly

Hi,
I recently bought the above printer and installed it according to the instructions. Everything seems to be fine, but when I haven't used the printer for a day or so, my iMac 'loses' it and I have to reinstall it all again. This is obviously a PITA!
Has anyone had a similar problem with this printer and managed to resole it, please?
I also have a HP multifunction device which is also connected wirelessly and this seems to work without too many issues, although it also disappears occasionally.
Any help would be appreciated.

Never mind. A reinstall did it!

    Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

    Problem connecting wirelessly from iMac to NETGEAR router, get invalid password message with WPA and WPA-2 encryption in place but if I remove them, so no security, can connect without a problem. Help!!

    Thank you for your suggestion but I have already had a couple of phone sessions with NETGEAR support and they don't see any problems with the router settings etc. They referred me to Apple support, who helped me discover that it is possible to communicate with the router but only if I turn off the encryption/security software, which I don't want to do. The frustrating thing is that I can connect wirelessly from a laptop running Windows 7 and two Anroid smart phones, with WPA-2 in place, without a problem. Do you have any other ideas?

  • Having problems connecting wireless?

    Hi All,
    I just got my MACBOOK two days ago and having some issues connecting wireless.. I can connect to my LINKSYS wireless router but it seems after about 7 mins of use I can no longer connect to the router. I have reset the router and even changed it but I still seem to have the same issue.
    If I use only PC's on my wireless network I don't have any issues.. It seems like the MAC messes up my network and it will not work again unless I take the power out of the router and then modem.
    I have used my comp at a friends house connecting to their linksys router without any issues.
    ANY IDEAS?
    THANKS

    If you have no problems connecting wirelessly on another network, then I'd look at your router as the probably culprit. Do you have any problems connecting to the router by Ethernet cable? Are your Network preferences configured properly? Have there been any firmware updates released for your router that you have not installed? Have you tried a different router in your home network? For example, try a D-Link DI-524. I've had good success with it. I've never had a really satisfactory experience with LinkSys, but that's my personal experience.

  • Problem connecting wirelessly to printer

    Hi, I used to be able to connect wirelessly to my HP Envy 120, and then for some reason it stopped working from my Macbook - I can still print from my iPad, and my daughter can print from her PC.  Any ideas?

    Hello themaven. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Does your client's ISP require that she registers the MAC address of the device that will be connected to their Internet service? If not, then it is possible that the communication between the Internet modem & the Time Capsule (TC) has not been properly established.
    I suggest trying the following:
    o Power-down the modem, TC, and computer(s); wait at least 10-15 minutes. Order is not critical.
    o Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
    o Power-up the TC; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
    o Power-up the computer(s).
    The computer(s) should now have Internet connectivity from the TC whether they are connected to it by Ethernet or wireless. Please post back your results.

  • Printer problems connected to iMac using Airport Express

    I have an Airport Extreme functioning as a base station,and an Airport Express extending the range to an iMac i keep on the third floor of my house; my HP printer is connected to the iMac. My iBook laptop in my kitchen connects wirelessly to the base station's stronger signal. Previously, when I used a Linksys system, my laptop was able to 'see' the printer connected to the iMac; now I can't. (I also am unable to fileshare between the computers, even tho i have filesharing switched on.) What gives (on both the printing and filesharing questions)?

    If you run the Airport Admin Utility on the iBook - does it "see" both the Airport Extreme Base Station and the Airport Express?
    Double check that your broadband modem is connected to your Base Station's WAN port - that's the port labelled with the "circle of dots" icon.

  • Problem connecting wirelessly with home hub 3.

    Kodak gave me advice onthis problem. Entered security key in upper case instead of lower and it solved the problem . No help from BT on this.

    What john46 says is quite correct, also Kodak would give you NO support for setting up the Home Hub..
    Thats not to say you would not have been given help on these forums if you had a problem connecting your printer and if we could not help,at least we might have been able to point you in the right direction.

  • Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw - problems connecting wirelessly to PC

    I have just bought a Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw and cannot connect wirelessly to my home network.
    The installation goes to 99% and then gives an error message saying it took too long to connect, reboot and try again. Rebooted and tried again many times.
    I have downloaded the latest installation prog. with the same result.
    I have been able to connect with USB direct and can print, but not by Wi-Fi.
    I have been able to connect the printer to my rooter by ethernet cable and can print that way also.
    I am running Win 8.1 on a 64bit Lenovo computer.
    Please can you advise a solution?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes. It's a bit embarrassing. Eventually, I went back to the instructions, and followed them to the letter for the WIFI setup -  and it worked .
    For me, the adage is true - "When all else fails, read the instructions."
    So embarrassing!!!!!
    Hope this helps.

  • WRV54G - Problems connecting wirelessly with Windows 7

    I'm unable to connect wirelessly to router using a HP laptop with windows 7. I have 2 xp laptops that connect without a problem. The HP laptop finds network, but once I click on network to connect, it does not ask for the security code therefore I can not connect to network.

    Hi. I think you need to verify your router MAC Filtering. I would suggest to disable it first. Check this link,
    http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgibin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.phpp_faqid=20600&p_created=125498...
    Also, make sure you're using the latest firmware for the router. Don't forget to manage the Profile of the card as stated on the link provided above. Thanks.

  • AE print problem from wireless PC

    I am using AE with a PC desktop conected via ethernet, a macbook and pc laptop connected wirelessly. All print to the canon pixima MP780 fine except the wireless PC. It will print documents, but when I try to print a web page, I get pages of codes. The laptop prints fine when connected directly to the printer so it is definately something with bonjour.

    Mike,
    Thanks so much for your advice regarding printing from the Windows laptop.
    I have often seen the name 'bonjour' thinking it to be some sort of french version of email for mac!!!!!! I have turned on Printer Sharing in System Preferences on the mac and shall be downloading 'bonjour for windows this evening. Thanks again. Keith

  • Problem Connecting wirelessly to BT Voayger 2500v

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble connecting wirelessly to my BT Voayger 2500v wireless router. I am able to connect to the web with it no worries when it is connected by an Ethernet cable. But I would like to connect to it via Airport. In the Airport menu at the top right of the screen the router appears. I disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer and select the router from the list and it says it is connected. But when I open up a page in Safari it says that I am not connected to the web. At no point does it ask me for a password. When I try to connect to other available networks in the building (not mine) it does ask for a password which I believe is normal behaviour, but not for my router?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks so much!
    Regards
    The Mervinator

    Mervinator, Welcome to the discussion area!
    At no point does it ask me for a password.
    Did you enable wireless encryption on your router? If not, it won't ask you for a password.

  • Problem connecting wirelessly to router

    I am having problems connecting to a router. I know it works because another computer can connect, no problem. It requests a WPA-2 password and the other computer enters an 8-digit code and they connect, no problem. My MacAir reconizes the network (router) but won't accept the same code the other laptop sitting next to me is able to use. The laptop that can get in asked for a "security key." The Mac asks for a password. Not sure if the nuance makes a difference. Has anyone else had issues like this?

    Welcome to Apple DIscussions.
    This could be a problem with the router settings as much, or more, than the security settings.  Follow the link if you own/have access to the router setup software.

  • Problem connecting wirelessly with HP 6310 printer

    Since our computer automatically updated from Windows 8 to 8.1 a couple of weeks ago, we have not been able to use our HP 6310 printer.  It connects with the computer through a wireless internet router.  Have updated the HP driver to 8.1 to no avail.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Hey there @Benjie18 ,
    I read your post about how you cannot use your Officejet 6310 printer since upgrading to Windows 8.1. I have a few ideas that come to mind that I am going to suggest and I hope they help!
    1. Run the Print and Scan Doctor, which may find the problem and correct it.
    2. Make sure the printer can make copies.
    3. Try Uninstalling the Printer Software, restarting the PC and reinstall - HP Photosmart and Officejet Full Feature Software and Drivers
    Let me know the results. If you run into any issues or errors, let me know!
    Have a great day!

  • Printer not connecting wirelessly with iMac

    MacBook Pro working on OSX 10.4.11 wirelessly with Epson PX710W. Tried to add iMac on OS X10.5.8 but failure to connect on every attempt after numerous sessions with Epson Support. Have repaired permissions having previously run verification of HD which was reported OK. Reset printer system and reinstalled drivers without success. Still receiving message job stopped on both computers. On setting up the sample page to print, when selecting the PX 710W printer or the other printer option, there is a quick flash. Then the MacBook will not print due to 'communication error'. But if the PX710W is turned off and then on again, the MacBook will print.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Switch router to channel 1. Disable and remove all security on the router. Now try to connect to your unsecured SSID. Are you successful?

  • Problem connecting wirelessly to the internet WRT54G

    I'm having strange issues with my wrt54g router - as long as my computers are plugged into it through ethernet, I have no problem accessing the internet. However, I can't access the internet if I connect to the router using wireless (my computers can connect to the router itself wirelessly, just can't access the internet from it). I've had this router for a little under a year and it used to work fine. Then I stopped using it for a few months, forgot my password and had to hit the reset button when I wanted to set it back up again yesterday. I've tried connecting multiple computers to it wirelessly, including the old one that used to work with it, but none of them can access the internet.
    I'm really not sure what could be wrong. Do I need to reinstall the router software that came with the router itself (though I'm not sure how this can help..)? Or is there some button/setting on the router that allows it to access the internet that I could have missed? I checked and wireless is enabled under wireless settings.
    I'm running Vista on one computer and XP on another.

    Connect the XP computer to the router at Ethernet Port ....
    Reset the router for 20-30 seconds ....
    Run the Disc for the setup wizard
    Let me know if any other problem occurs...
