I see that you are having an issue with installing the printer.
So I can better assist you, please respond with which Operating System you are running as well as the exact printer model number. HP has so many models that start with 4500.

Trouble loading my printer

im having trouble loading my epson printer to my mac, when i put the disc in a message pops up saying that powerPC is no longer supported? any help cheers!!

System Preferences > Printing. Click the + button on the left side of the Printing prefs pane.
This will call up the printer browser, where you can enter the location, IP address, etc.
Lexmark drivers are included in the default installation of Mac OS X. I have no idea if they include a driver for your model, but it should be on Lexmark's site if not.

Trouble w/ Wireless Printing to HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Using Time Capsule

Hi there –
My Setup:
New MacBook Pro
Comcast Internet (Wireless Router)
2TB Time Capsule (Setup as "New Network" and connected to wireless router via Ethernet WAN)
HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 All-In-One (Wireless - not wired connection - and using Wireless Direct)
I am trying to let the HP Printer be wireless only. When I run on the Comcast wireless network using the SSID and Password of our default home network (not using new Time Capsule network), I can print from all my devices (MBP, iPhone, etc) wirelessely just fine.
When I create the new Wireless network using the Time Capsule, and configure the printer with the SSID and password, I cannot connect to the printer.
Should the configuration be different in the case where I use the TC network?
I have also tried setting up the HP printer as a WPS Printer, and I had the same results...nothing.
Anyone have any advice?
Thanks!
Daniel

Do you mean at the Comcast Wireless gateway?
No .. from what you wrote the Comcast works ok .. it is the TC that is not working.
That is correct?
Is the TC in bridge mode.. but creating a wireless network?? That is how it should be connected and wireless should be different name to the comcast if you are trying to troubleshoot.
If the network name on the TC is compliant then the printer should connect..
Turn off the wireless security on the TC to see if it is the problem.
Once you complete this setup it is very important for you to reboot the whole network.. restart in correct order.. modem.. TC .. clients.. 2min gap.
Then make sure all the clients are connecting to the wireless on the TC not the wireless from the comcast.

I loaded wireless printer, an HP, to macBook pro but not printing, Why?

I bought a new HP Office Jet 8600 witeless printer, following directions, I loaded it onto to my notebook. My mac seems to recognize the printer but ir not printing. I have a dell desktop and HP laptop to which I also loaded the primter to and they both work but my apple MacBook does not.

Yep, I believe you have not gone thru the proper steps to create a printer instance on your Mac and/or don't have the latest round of HP drivers as distributed by Apple via Software Update.
We recently got a 5200tn LaserJet and I was able to fully access all its features in less than 5 minutes. Even got a full configuration utility from where I can set up all the printer's featues as a bonus. All contained as part of the OS, did not have to download anything from HP or even get the install CD that came with the printer out of its bag.

I have an IMac 10.6.8 and having trouble loading Canon printer MG8150

Canon MG8150 anyone have ideas on loading the software?

According to:
http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010881.asp:
The only driver for your printer that won't work with 10.6.8 definitively is this one, once you pick the language and operating system:
10. Printer Driver for Mac OSX (7.32.0)
This software is necessary to print documents and images.
Compatibility:
Operating system(s): Mac OS X 10.4.11, Mac OS X 10.5.x
Language(s): Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish
The rest have a good chance of working, since 10.6's printing system is very similar throughout its updates.
Though since they aren't specific to 10.6.8's compatibility, you may find things that don't work as well as perhaps 10.6, and 10.6.1. For those you may need the open source drivers that were newer*:

At least try the Canon drivers and see how they work first.

Wireless Printing - HP LaserJet P1102w

Yesterday I purchased an HP LaserJet P1102w printer, followed all the instructions that came in the pack and enjoyed trouble free wireless printing for a short little while, even from my iPhone 4 after updating the firmware on the printer.
My problem now is that the printer seems to keep dropping its connection with the router. The blue wireless indicator light seems to be quite often flashing rather than static.
This is an issue as when I want to print a document I have to wait for a long time before the documents come out of the printer. It is tedious.
Any suggestions or recommendations would be welcome.

Reboot the router, make sure the printer is powered on and connected to the network as best you can. Then download and run this tool - the Print and Scan Doctor:

Trouble connecting C4795 printer wirelessly

Ok, so here it what I have:
Photosmart C4795 printer
Mac Mini w/ OS X 10.9.5
Cisco DPC3825 router
I have tried everything under the sun to connect this printer wirelessly to my computer to no avail. I have searched the internet high and low for a solution, but have found nothing. Please help me with this issue.

Hello @Greentarpon,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are experiencing issues when trying to configure your HP Photosmart C4795 All-in-One Printer for wireless printing with your Mac OS X 10.9.5 computer. I would like to work with you today with resolving this network connectivity issue. Now, just so you are aware, HP actually doesn't have a downloadable Full Feature Software and Driver package available for your model of printer on the Mac OS X 10.9 Operating System due to the age of your printer. Therefore, we will be relying on your Apple Updates to load all the software and drivers onto your Mac computer for you printer. Also, because there is no HP downloadable Full Feature Software and Drivers there is no wireless setup for your Mac computer. Therefore, you have two options:
Option 1: Use a supported Operating System to configure the wireless on your printer. Once the wireless is configured on your printer than you simply add (+) your wireless bonjour printer into your Mac OS X 10.9 computer.
Supported Operating Systems include:
Mac OS X 10.4, Mac OS X 10.5, Mac OS X 10.6, and Mac OS X 10.7
Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1
Option 2: Run the Push Button or Pin methods of configuring wireless. These options will only work if your router has this capability.
How to Configure Wireless with Push Button Method:
1. On the control panel Home screen, touch the button next to Scan.
2. Touch the button next to Wireless Menu
3. Touch the button next to WPS.
4. Touch the button next to Push Button. The printer begins a timer that lasts approximately two minutes to allow time to press the WPS button on the router.
5. Press the WPS button on the router. The printer connects to the network.
6. Touch OK on the printer control panel.
How to Configure Wireless with Pin Method:
1. On the control panel Home screen, touch the button next to Scan.
2. Touch the button next to Wireless Menu.
3. Touch the button next to WPS.
4. Touch the button next to PIN. The PIN displays on the control panel. The printer begins a timer that lasts approximately two minutes to allow time to enter the WPS PIN.
5. Enter the PIN on the router.
6. Touch Start. The printer displays a PIN.
7. Touch OK on the printer control panel.
Once the printer and router are connected, by either the Push Button or Pin Methods, than you simply add (+) your wireless bonjour printer into your Mac.
How to Install the software
Click the Apple menu (), and then click System Preferences. The System Preferences window opens.
Click Print & Scan. The Print & Scan window opens.
Click the plus sign (). The name of your printer displays.
Click Add Printer or Scanner.
Select your printer, and then click Add.
Click Install, and then click Agree on the software license agreement window to install the software and add the printer to the queue.
After the installation process completes, verify that your printer displays in the queue.

Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your connectivity issues. Should you prefer to run through Method 1 on a supported Operating System, please let me know what Operating System you have on the supported computer (What's my OS?) and I will provide you with detailed wifi configuration instructions. Good luck!

Trouble connecting wirelessly to HP printer

I am trying to connect my MacBook up to a new HP Officejet 6500A printer and it is not printing. HP says that Mac has a difeernt way of connecting and that they can not help me. Has anyone else had this problem?

Someone is telling you pure nonsense!
(I own another HP, but I don't own this specific HP.)
HP lists the printer as being compatible with OS X 10.5 and 10.6 right on their own web page:
http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06a/18972-18972-238444-12019-3328086-4 083974.html
Without more specifics, it's impossible to diagnose the problem you're having.
Have you tried the HP wireless printer setup support site?
http://h20563.www2.hp.com/p/_wireless/index.html?jumpid=ex_r602_go/wpc-support-h p
I noted that MUCH of the user feedback for this specfic printer on the HP website is EXTREMELY negative, with many people rating the printer 1 or 2 stars.
If possible, you might want to return it and find something else!

Trouble setting up wireless printing between my Macbook Pro w. Mountain Lion 10.8.1 and my HP C4780 Printer

Hi all,
I'm having a frustrating problem trying to set up the wireless printing between my Macbook Pro 13" to my HP C4780 printer. I had no problem installing and configuring this before on my previous computer, a Macbook. However, when I got my new computer (the Macbook Pro), my wireless network wont show up when I try and install the wireless capability during the printer setup. I had to buy a new router and set up a new network around the time I got my new computer, so I wonder if this has something to do with it. My wireless network is a WPA/WPA2 personal, but so was my old wireless network with the old router and I didn't have a problem installing the wireless. I thought I might not have had the most up-to-date driver for the printer software, but I do. So, i'm stuck! Any thoughts??

Go here and download all the manuals and read them on how to set up your printer.

Trouble connecting to a wireless printer

I have a Time Capsule and I just turned on the Guest Account. In order for me to do this I changed the DHCP setting under the Internet tab to change the DHCP Beginning Address to 10.x.x.x. For those using either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz wireless network they have no problems using the HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless printer since it connects to the either of two available wireless networks.
Further away I have two Mac laptops who cannot access the two wireless networks due to signal strength. I hooked up a AE using an existing ethernet connection. I created a new wireless network and the addresses are in the same range - 10.x.x.x when connected wirelessly but I cannot "see" the HP wireless printer.
Is it possible for the two users connecting to the AE to every "see" the HP wireless printer?
Thank you for looking.

If your printer is already connected to your printer (wifi light = green), click on the link to Manually Add a USB Print Queue, Network Print Queue and Fax Queue on Mac OS X Systems
If the wifi light is orange, just follow the steps when you launch the wireless setup assistant.

Is it one of the models that support AirPrint ? The models that do are listed on this page, along with some troubleshooting : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
If it's not an AirPrint model then you will probably need an app. You could check to see if Apple have their own app in the store, or there are third-party apps such as Print Central and Print n Share

Trouble connecting HP Photosmart D110 wireless printer to D-Link router

We just installed our new all in one modem/wireless router that we received from Verizon yesterday. The computers connected fine but our HP Photosmart D110 wireless printer will not connect. We tried many different things. It connects fine when using the new D-Link with our old wireless router connected. It will also connect to the modem if there is no security encryption. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thank you!

HP sales usb wireless adaptors. 1315v has a USB connection, I believe.

HP AIO Remote shows wireless printer offline when it is online and can print to it.

HP AIO Remote installed on my Windows 8.1 Yoga 2 shows my wireless printer is offline, when it is online and I can print to it wirelessly. How can I get it to recognize my wireless printer is online wirelessly? AIO Remote will only recognize the printer is online when the USB in connected to the Yoga 2.

Hi rpmcintyre,
Thank you for the additional information. I apologize for misunderstanding. I just want to confirm that the HP AiO app that you downloaded onto your Windows 8.1 computer is showing your printer as offline when you are able to print wirelessly to the printer.
I have two different documents for you. The first one is How to Use the HP AiO Remote App for Windows 8. It has a FAQ section at the bottom of the document with trouble shooting steps. I have also included the Supported Printers for the HP Scan and Capture App.
If the above documents don’t assist you, would you please let me know which make/model/product number of HP printer that you have? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Regards,

Can not connect All in one 209b to new router for wireless printing....

Have an HP laptop and All in one priner 209b. All was working fine, wired and wireless printing. Then we had to upgrade our ATT Uverse router. Everything works...even wireless laptop and printer when connected to laptop. However, can't get printer to printer wireless since it has the old router info. I used the disk but when it asks to you to pick the printer, I choose the printer but it says printer now found ??? what ???? and this is with the cable connected. I do not have the wizard on the touch screen but I did reset to factory settings hoping it would load new router info but it does not. How do you manually enter router into for wireless printing. Is it best to delete the printer and reinstall as new...wired and then wireless ???
I am about to call an outsite company and pay the outrageous charge as the help on HP is not working. Thanks
