Scanning wirelessly with Time Capsule

I set-up my HP All-in-One Printer to print wirelessly from my computer using Time Capsule, however, I've been unable to figure out how to scan documents from the printer.  Does Time Capsule support scanning wirelessly???  If it does, how do I set-up the scanner???

Does Time Capsule support scanning wirelessly???
Is your All-in-One connected to the Time Capsule using the USB port, or is it connecting using wireless only?
If USB, it is a matter of opinion as to who supports what.  HP has not provided full function drivers that would allow advanced features like scan, copy, maintenance, etc when the device is connected to a USB port on a router. Only the print function is supported.
Apple can only provide the drivers that they get from the printer manufacturers. HP might have a full function driver available on their support site, so that might be worth checking. Or, they may be able to confirm a time when they do expect to be able to offer full functionality.

  • Setting up new HP Laserjet CP1525nw wirelessly with Time Capsule

    Im having issues setting up my new HP Laser printer via wirelessly with Time Capsule. I have tried with the Wireless Client Setup
    Assistant but cannot get it to work. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    I tried to get the CP1525nw set up on my computer here at the office and found, much to my chagrin, that the CP1525 is not supported under 10.7 and retroactively not supported under 10.6. The way that I have found to get around the issue is to connect it wirelessly via a static IP address and use a generic postscript driver. I'm hoping that they will release a driver to Apple soon, but until then, generic is the only way to go and I have not found any print quality issues.

  • Why can't I print wireless with Time Capsule anymore?

    I have an Epson Stylus Photo 1280 that I have been printing wireless with for many years by plugging it in to the USB port on the back of the Time Capsule. Not anymore.
    I have a MacBook Pro running the latest OS as well as the latest model Time Capsule running the latest software from Apple. I have tried using Airport Utility 5.6 which sees the printer plugged in. But when I try to add the printer to the Print & Scan system preferences, it shows up but says:
    Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?
    When I click "Download and Install" it searches for the software but then tells me:
    The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer’s manufacturer for the latest software.
    When I plug the printer directly into my MBP, I can add the printer and print without any problems.  Per Epson, I have the latest software for my printer, so I'm not sure why Apple needs to search for the software and download it in order for me to print using the Time Capsule.
    Like I said before, this all use to work flawlessly. I'm assuming all the updates have "broken" something.
    Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

    Well, I solved my problem.
    I deleted the EPSON folder in Library/Printers as well as Library/Cache and installed the EPSON driver via Softwar Update.
    Everything is working fine now.

  • Joning a wireless with Time Capsule

    Hello,
    I currently have a Linksys WAP4410N in place on my network and I already have a firewall in place as well. So what I am trying to do is have my time capsule join my existing wireless network and I am having issues. I go through the wizard and do everything it says and then the time capsule reboots and has a steady flashing amber light and then the airport utility says that it cannot find it. I then reset the Time Capsule and go through the process again only to acheive the same dismal results. My WAP is set up to use WPA2 Personal/Mixed and it is running in b/g/n mode on channell 11. I am almost at wits end, please help!

    i assume you're trying to connetct linksys and TC wirelessly ? i don't think that will work but you could run an ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports of the linksys to the WAN port of your TC and set the TC up in bridge mode.
    post back if you need further advice
    good luck

  • Wireless comm problem with time capsule or airport extreme using iMac G5

    I did buy a Time Capsule and an iMac 20" G5 January 2009...Installed all the components and created a wireless network...MacBook, iPhone and iPod Touch connected perfectly...iMac connected but started to drop communications with Time Capsule...Safari, iTunes and other internet-access programs had problems to connect 100% with the web...After reviewing all the post here and "testing/trying" several parameters, I found out that you need to define a WPA/WPA2 password protection with more than 13 characters...FYI, Time capsule is configured using 802.11n (b/g compatible)...

    Further to Bob's comments..
    A Gen1 TC will be using marvel wireless chip and your 2008 and 2010 Macbook will use atheros and/or broadcom cards.. Just open your system profiler and look for info on the airport. We find the mixture of wireless chipsets especially older draft N and later N products can give very varied results.
    The very fact you are linking at 270 and not 300mbps shows some reduction from theoretical max speed.. and really to get over 100mbps with any wireless you need perfect setup.. matched wireless chips etc.
    Do a test uploading and downloading a file to the TC to see if the LAN speed is better than internet speed.
    In reality I think you are doing especially well.. we see loads of people complaining about slow internet here who are getting less than 10% of the speed they get direct when routed through the TC. And on most occasions the limit in speed is not really going to affect what you do, as the real links to the internet are not that fast.

  • How to Sync iPhone/iPad with Time Capsule (wirelessly)

    Hi - I am wondering if there is way to sync my iPhone or iDevices with Time Capsule wirelessly.  Please let me know if there is and how?
    Thanks in advance..

    The iOS devices....iPhones, iPads, iPods, etc.....sync to iTunes on your computer or to iCloud.
    See this Apple support document:

    It is not possible to sync iOS devices directly to the Time Capsule.

  • How can i extend a wireless network with time capsule

    How can i extend an existing wifi verizon wireless network with time capsule? the router is connected on the bottom floor. want to boost the signal to a home office on the top floor, four flights up. connect time capsule via ethernet cable to iMac on 4th floor? Do I have to start a second wifi network or can I set it to just boost the one I have? thank you

    How can i extend an existing wifi verizon wireless network with time capsule?
    It all depends on what you mean by "extend".
    If you plan to "extend" by connecting the Time Capsule to the Verizon router using a wired Ethernet cable, this can be accomplished.
    If you were hoping to connect the Time Capsule to the Verizon router using wireless only, unfortunately the Time Capsule and Verizon products are not compatible for that purpose.
    Check with Verizon to see if they offer an "extender" or "repeater" that could be located very close to the Time Capsule.
    This would provide both more wireless coverage and also allow you to connect the Time Capsule using an Ethernet cable from the "extender" or "repeater".

  • Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub

    Looking for a back up drive for photos and videos that works with time machine, prefer wireless. Time capsule has poor reviews and already have BT hub that serves as a good router. 3gb or 4gb capacity preferred but 2 would suffice.

    Plug a NAS into the BT Hub that does TM. Look at Synology.
    You just use the wireless of the hub.
    But the cheapest solution is still the TC.

  • Wireless printing with time capsule 1tb and new wireless all in one printer

    Hi,
    my hp photosmart C6180 all in one works flawlessly with it plugged in to my time capsule all functions.
    I used to have it set up using it wirelessly from the printer however for some reason after a update (i think) it stopped working & would not print so had to plug in to time capsule.

  • Problem w/ wireless range with Time Capsule

    Recently set up Time Capsule to swap out my Airport next to my Imac. Also have an Airport Express set up in another room to help extend wireless range. Found now that the range with Time Capsule is not as good as the Airport setup and I can't use my Ipad in the bedrooms furthest away from the Time Capsule. I'm not very tech saavy but would appreciate any suggestions? Thx.

    When you set up TimeCapsule did you create a closed network? With a closed network, airport doesn't broadcast the network name, you have to manually enter it to join. This might be your problem. To fix it (or to see if that's what you've done) run Airport Utility and select manual setup. Select the Wireless tab and then click on the Wireless Options button at the bottom of the window.

  • Creating wireless network with Time Capsule

    hi, I just have couple of questions before installing the time capsule;
    so far I have been using cable DSL modem, so my question is - is it possible to set time capsule as a wireless router, or does time capsule still have to be connected with DSL modem and then act wiresly with iMac?
    I was thinking if i could replace cable DSL modem with time capsule
    thank you

    The Time Capsule has to be connected to your DSL modem. Otherwise you won't be able to connect to internet.

  • Use Network ready printer with Time Capsule?

    Recently bought a laser all in one Canon printer that was network ready. Canon tech support told me it would not be compatible with Time Capsule (500 GB) as the wireless source. Is this true?
    If true, what printer brands will network easily with the Time Capsule?
    Thank you!
    In search of new printer

    Welcome to the discussions!
    If the all-in-one is "network ready", it will have an ethernet port to connect to the network. It will need to connect by ethernet if you want to be able to use the scan, fax, copy, etc functions.
    If you are planning to connect the all-in-one to the Time Capsule USB port, the printing function will work if the device is compatible. The other functions will not be supported.

  • I connected my Canon printer to time capsule, and can print OK. However, I can't get the printer scanner to work. How do you set up the scanner with Time Capsule?

    I connected my Canon printer to time capsule, and can print OK. However, I can't get the printer scanner to work. How do you set up the scanner with Time Capsule?

    You cannot use USB. It has to be a network capable printer.. is it?? You did not indicate how it is connected.. but by wireless or ethernet then scanning is possible otherwise not.

  • How do I add an Airport Extreme with Time Capsule to an existing non-Apple network?

    How do I add an Airport Extreme with Time Capsule to an existing non-Apple network?  I have an ISP provided wireless Router that has to remain as the base station.  I am able to join my 1/2TB Airport Extreme and Airport Express to the network, but I can't access/use Time Machine.

    One option would be to connect the Time Capsule (TC) to the ISP-provided wireless router by Ethernet. You can then configure the for a roaming network. Then, depending on what your goal is for the AirPort Express, you can either: 1) Add it to roaming network, 2) Configure the TC & the Express for an "extended" network, or 3) Configure the Express to "join" the roaming network for AirPlay.
