To print without network setup

I think my router has bit the dust but until I can replace it, I want to be able to use the printer with one computer.  Is this possible?

Maybe.  You make no mention of what printer model number you have, what OS or how it was connected so I am guessing here since you have no data.  The printer may support Wireless Direct printing, but read your manual and check.
But yes, connect a USB cable most likely and reinstall it.

  • Can Officejet 6100 wireless print without network?

    We just purchased a Officejet 6100 to use in a vehicle for commercial vehicle enforcement. We would like to use it to print wirelessly directly from a laptop without a network or cable. Is this possible with this printer? If not do you have a suggestion before I rip it out of the box? Our hopes it that it would connect with the laptop wirelessly and give the ability to print.

    It appears from the manual that this is not a wireless printer.

  • Wireless printing without network?

    Is it possible to print wirelessly without a wireless network? Is it possible to connect a printer to an AirPort Express? There is no broadband network in place.
    We have 5 people(XP users) that need to use a USB printer. It may be a long shot, but I thought it may be possible.
    If anyone has any thoughts about this idea or another solution I could use, I'd love to hear about it.

    Is it possible to print wirelessly without a wireless
    network? Is it possible to connect a printer to an
    AirPort Express? There is no broadband network in
    place.
    In this case, no, however you can use the Airport Express to create a wireless network which clients can join and then print.
    There is no need for the Airport Express to be connected to any broadband or other internet connection.

  • Is there any way to print directly to a wireless printer without a wireless network?

    My daughter is in the dorms at a university that doesn't allow individual wireless networks and I am trying to figure out if I can print directly from her MacBook Pro to the HP Photosmart Premier C310A.  Can anyone help?

    I am currently using a USB connection, but that keeps me tethered to the printer.  Which is something I would like to avoid.  I was looking at creating an ad hoc network with the MacBook, but I don't know Apple products well enough. 
    Is there a way to wirelessly print to the printer without an internet connection?  Will an ad hoc network work? Can an ad hoc network even be done with a MacBook?

    It turned out that WD is the big bad guy in this game.
    According the data rescue company where I asked for an inspection, both of the drives had their reader head loose. And in the one, which was my already-in-use disk its even damaged the platters... xxxxx
    So its time to pay bunch of money to recover, and take a walk to wd service to bang on the desk.
    Also note - it may be somehow related to intellispeed technology - since macs not really friendly with wd-s built-in solutions.
    On the other hand, with WD GP 1Tb there is no problems at all for ages.

  • Printing directly to printer without Print setup dialog box

    I am using Crystal Reports 2008 with VB.NET 2008. Using the CrystalReportViewer control, how can I print directly to the printer without having the Print setup dialog box popup every time?

    Only way would be to create your own print button and use the report engine APIs. A good sample app is vbnet_win_printtoprinter in this sample download:

  • HT204023 How do I set up to print from my iPad directly to a wi-fi direct printer WITHOUT going through my household  wi-fi network/modem?

    How do I set up to print from my iPad directly to a "wi-fi direct" printer WITHOUT going through my household wi-fi network/modem? I want to get rid of my household internet service/modem and only use my iPad, but need to be able to print. Please help! Thank you!

    Depending on the printer, you may be able to connect/print by creating an ad-hoc (Wi-Fi direct with no router) connection. Check with your printer manufacturer to see if this is supported.
    There's a ton of info out there. You could google "ipad print ad-hoc" for some useful info. But the number one thing for you right now is to verify that your printer model supports an ad-hoc connection.

  • HP Photosmart 5510 B111a - iMac can't locate printer on network

    When I first bought this printer I set everything up just fine and everything worked great. I recently moved, and for some reason when I hooked it back up, it will not print. I am able to go thru the setup assistant with the printer wired to the iMac just fine until it asked for the usb to be removed and then it says that "device not found on network". I am not sure what the problem could be. Seems it should be quite easy, but I cannot for the life of me, figure it out. Any help would be appreciated.
    Matt

    Well, I have the same problem with my WIndows 7 (64 bit) laptop. Installing seems to go fine with USB, printer is connected to my network, and works. After I have restarted the networkconnection is still fine (in menu printer) but when I try to print without the USB-cable the printer cannot be found by my computer. 
    I have tried ever troubleshooting step I could find but still it doesn't work via the network (with USB cable no problems).
    Could a permanent IP adress configuration in the router be a solution?
    Kind regards,
    Ilco
