Unable to connect to Windows Printer

I have an HP Photosmart C3180 attached to my wife's Vista machine that I am unable to connect to. She had an XP machine until a few days ago that I had connected to via CUPS with smb://username@machine/share.
I've tried the same now that it's set up on the Vista machine with absolutely no luck, what I'm getting is the NTSTATUS_ACCESSDENIED messages when trying to print.

I suggest that the Vista system is refusing you permission to the resource.
You will have to look at the Vista end to fix this.
Is the printer shared in windows?
Is the firewall enabled?

  • Printer Unable to connect on Windows 8.1 64 bit based Lenovo Laptop.

    We have HP LaserJet 3030 all in one printer installed on Windows XP Professional. We are using LAN network to connect the printer on network. But our Printer Unable to connect on Windows 8.1 64 bit based Lenovo Laptop. Also check for windows update for this issue. Please fix this quickly.

    Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
    If you can't get a working installer via the standard download links, try the following download links instead:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe

  • HP Device Toolbox software Error Unable to connect to the printer

    Hi guys,
    I'm currently in bit of a nightmare with my HP Laserjet 100 color MFP M175nw. 
    Basically I have upgraded to a new wireless router and since doing this my HP Laser Jet refuses to work / connect to the wireless network.
    I have literally tried just about evey thing I can to get it to work, thoroughly through the manual, uninstalled and reinstalled the software about 12 times, tried firewalls on and off, tried security on the router on and off, tried WPS mode, tried manually entering in the IP address into the printer all without luck. You can see my dedicated thread here
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/HP-LaserJet-Pro-100-color-MFP-M175nw-un...
    So currently I have the printer connect to the computer via USB and it works, so I decided to try using the HP Device toolbox software  to see if it would give me any more options to try and when I run this software I get
    Error: Unable to connect to the printer, make sure your printer is properly connected and powered on and then try to open the HP device toolbox again. Arg!!!
    My new router is a Billion 7800DXL, my old router which worked in wireless mode was also a Billion 7300g.
    Any help would be great really stuck here

    Hello tf22raptor.
    I see that you're now experiencing an issue getting the Device Tool box to run. I will try and assist with this.
    After reviewing this post and the other thread, I have a few things you can try.
    1) Run MS Fix it utility to uninstall the software: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled.
    (This is to make sure the software is completely removed and conflicts in the registry get resolved)
    2)Msconfig: press windows key and R on the keyboard> in run box type "msconfig"> on window select "services tab"> check box next to "hide all MS services> press disable all> go to "startup" tab> press disable all> press apply and ok at the bottom> this should prompt a PC restart.
    Please restart.
    3) Re-install via USB
    4) Try running the device toolbox now
    5)If still having issues installing wireless, you may have to contact the router manufacture.
    I hope this helps you out. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Unable to Connect Wirelessly to Printer

    Hi all.
    Since I had my BT Infinity installed I am unable to connect to my printer Wirelessly like I had previous. I have an Epson SX600FW Inkjet All-in-One Printer. I have the BT Homehub 2.0. How do you configure this hub/router for the Wireless Printer? I cannot see any way of doing this?
    Out of desperation, I have even tried to attach my old Router to the Homehub (even replace the BT Hub with it) but got nothing at all. Not even internet connection!
    Can anyone help?
    BT Infinity (Option 2/Unlimited) - BT Telephone (Unlimited 24/7 calls) - BT Vision (The Whole Lot! inc Sky Sports & ESPN)

    Infinity installed yesterday. Works perfectly both with laptop and Wi Fi Blue Ray DVD but will not work with printer which is an Epson Stylus SX425W. I have set up printer ok to run on Wi Fi but it will not print and I keep getting error messages. Spoken to Epson who have been thro the set up, confirmed that all is ok and asked me to print a status check. This says that network is working correctly but "A router/access point channel conflict has been detected". According to Epson, the solution is for the BT Hub to be configured so that it allows any Epson product through it's firewalls, and for MAC address filtering to be turned off. This is out of my league - is there anyone out there who recognises this issue and can help?   
    Hi rdec1945
    I dont use that printer but the epson PX710W.
    Have you used the printers on screen menu.
    Setup
    OK
    Network Settings
    OK
    Wireless setup wizard  or even Advanced setup and then WPS Wireless LAN setup, where you use the WPS button on the side of the HH3.
    Setting up mine did not involve opening any thing in the firewall or doing anything with MAC address filtering.
    [edit] have a look at this post from geaves, again not the same printer but suggests setting it up with ethernet first, I think its post 6.

  • Unable to connect via wireless, printer is online.

    I am using a Photosmart plus 209a via wireless.  There are 3 notebooks connected. 2 will print but my Dell Studio (Win 7 Pro) will not. It was previously connected but now unable to connect.  I have uninstalled all components using level 3 twice. Have used the Print/Scan tool.  Downloaded the full SW package and the Basic driver SW. I process a job and it gets to the spooler and then "print job failed".  I can view the control panel via IP address. I can view network settings and print wireless test page through HP Solution Center.  Why am I unable to connect?  I was able to use via USB but this is not an option.

    It sounds like there is something different on the Dell Studio since it works from two other computers on the same network as the Dell Studio.  It also sounds like you are able to access the EWS of the printer by using its IP address.
    Are there any other errors messages regarding the printer?  If so, what are they?
    Is there a third party firewall installed (e.g. Norton, Kasperksy, BitDefender, etc.)?
    Is this Windows 7 Professional 32bit or 64bit?

    Unable to connect to printer after Security update. Spent an hour with Apple Support trying to solve issue. Any similar experiences?

    What kind of printer is it? Have you tried deleting and re-adding it? Is there anything in /Utilities/Console in "All Messages" or /var/log/cups/error_log when you try to print?

  • Unable to connect to wifi printer

    I am unable to connect my ipad to the wifi printer since I upgraded to iso7. All other computer connect to the printer which means it's the ipad to printer problem

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • Unable to connect to wireless printer or download firmware update

    Got an HP C4580 all-in-one wireless. Can see the device wirelessly using the HP Utility, but cannot print to it "Printer is not connected" or see it using System Preferences. Have downloaded the firmware update, but when running this it hangs at the device discovery stage (even when connected through USB) and therefore I cannot update the firmware on the printer.
    The printer will print when connected throught USB.
    Driving me nuts!
    Jim

    Thanks for the information. Network is not complex. Cable Broadband connected by ethernet to AirPort with an additional AirPort (Time Capsule) to extend the range of the network through the house.
    I did all as you suggested, and this worked fine (once) for twoMacBook Pros, and two iMacs, and now won't work on any of these again (one day later).
    Am reluctant to reset the printers again, as my print list includes five printers from work, which requires the IT Dept to reconfigure again if I clear them once more.
    HP Utility can apparently connect to the printer and give me device information, I just cannot print to, or scan from the printer.
    As advised before, I cannot install the firmware update (it may alreadybe installed - how would I know)? It just hangs when trying to seek the printer type.
    The lack of wireless printing is driving me nuts. Before the problem arose with complete loss of service, I went through a period of a few weeks where the printer would not connect after it had printed a job, and had to be switched off, then back on again before working wirelessly. Now nothing.
    Kind regards,
    Jim

  • Unable to Connect to Windows File Shares

    Steps I take to attempt to connect to a Windows File Share within the office. Being relatively new to the Mac, I am curious on why I am not able to connect to Windows File Shares.
    1. Command-K
    2. Server Address: smb://[server-hostname]/[sharename]
    3. Click Connect
    4. Connecting To Server..... (takes a short amount of time)
    5. SMB/CIFS File System Authentication
    - I then enter the domain, username and password
    6. Click OK
    7. Error: Could not connect to the server because the name or password is not correct.
    What gives? I have confirmed and validated server hostname, sharename, appropriate persmissions for windows account, etc. I have tried IP Address instead of hostname, same outcome.
    Any Ideas?

    Hi Arus, not really a Windows® expert, but I think I've seen were putting the Domain name in there fixed it, but I can't find the exact way to do it, this is the closest I could find...
    "If I try to connect to smb://domain, that's when I can authenticate. If I try smb://machine/share, I still get the error -43."

  • Officejet 7310 Print Spooler Unable to connect to your Printer

    Hello, this problem cropped up last week after I applied a series of Windows XP automatic updates.  I've seen a number of old posts on this problem, along with the series of solutions on the HP site, but none of worked reliably -- read on for more details.  Wondering if anyone else encountered this problem recently and has a solution that has lasted? 
    As background, the 7310 is connected via ethernet wire to a router.  I run two XP machines and am running into the "print spooler" problem on each.  I also run a Win7 machine, and can print fine from that PC (I know, so upgrade to Win7 -- maybe this winter!!).   More details on what I've tried, if it helps:
    To try and fix the XP machines, I have: 
    -  Cleared the print queue and rebooted.
    -  Verified that the printer is using the correct port
    -  Verified that my XP machines can communicate with the printer  by scanning a document
    -  Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the 7310 complete driver set
    At this point I  was still unable to print from the XP machines.  I then did the following: 
    -  Checked the port settings; tried changing to the "print directly to the printer" vs spooling
    -  Also noticed that windows wanted to download updates to the Microsoft .NET framework (because the HP driver installs an old version), so I dowloaded and applied all of those updates. 
    After this, I WAS able to print.  I then changed the port setting back to spooling, and was still able to print.  I then rebooted, and again ran into the spooler problem. 

    Hi NeverBoring,
    Currently the ICS is not supported in Home&Biz app.  Supposedly there was going to be a Home&Biz app update in late February but we haven't seen it yet.

  • Unable to connect to windows server using VMware after AppleSoftwareUpdate

    Hallo,
    we are using a Mac OS X Server 10.5.7 server to host our new business application's database. However, all the old data was stored on an old Windows NT 4.0 server using an Oracle database. We still have to access the old data using our former business application for backward compatibility on a regular basis. Because we were unable to move the data over we decided to create a virtual machine. Everything was fine and the VMware Fusion trial worked great. So we decided to buy your software. At the same time we have installed a few Apple updates (AirPort-Utiliy 2009-002, iLife-Support 9.0.3, Safari 4.0 and QuickTime 7.62) on the server. When we tried to run the business application on our clients - Windows 98 (they're accessing a shared folder containing the EXE mounted as a network drive) the applications just crashed after entering the username and password: "application caused an invalid page fault in module ..."
    Is there any possibility of an incompatibility connected with the installed Apple updates ?

    I would post your issue in the Printing & Faxing forum area. More chance for some of the gurus like Greg Sahli to respond.

  • FF4580 unable to connect Wireless - Windows 8

    I have historically used the HP F4580 on XP and Windows 7 but not wirelessly.  I have a new PC running Windows 8 64 Bit and am trying to re install the F4580 but would prefer it to run wirelessly.
    I have downloaded the software and drivers from the HP website and the printer works fine using a USB connection.
    I am trying to convert from USB to wireless using the HP installation and it states my SSID is not available.Even when I type in the SSID it states it is not avaialable.  It then tells me the printer I have selected is not connected.
    I have added the printer using the mac address to my router as a trusted source.
    I have configured the wireless network direct from the device using the wizard and have an IP address for the printer.
    The scan print states that wireless is up and running and working ok but I cannot print to it wirelessly.  As soon as I remove the USB the printer is unavailable.
    I have tried removing the printer and rebooting and reinstalling.  I have disabled antivirus and firewalls but still am unable to print wirelessly.
    Does anyone have any other ideas or have I missed something really simple.
    Thanks

  • I am unable to connect an HP printer connected to an Airport Extreme Basestation

    I am unable to add aan HP Laserjet 1212nf printer connected to an Airport Base station.  When I click add it takes me directly to the I.P. window.  My MacBook pro running 10.6 does not see the printer, Bonjour does not search for it.

    Had the same problem, still do, ended up getting a cable and using it when I'm printing.  Very disappointing.
