Why does my networked printer have boise idaho as the location?

I have an HP Laserjet 2840 networked through a router. I gave it an IP address and it works with all 3 computers on the network. but when i go to the print and fax preferences it has boise, idaho as the location. i'm in new york city.
it doesn't seem to affect the performance but i thought it was weird.

Hi RVg4, and a warm welcome to the forums!
What are the 1st two numbers of the IP you gave it?

  • Why does a CMYK printer have RGB ink tanks

    We are having trouble printing nice tomatoe red and bright blue colors using the SG1 paper profile on our 9500MII printer.
    Over the years we have noticed that the RGB ink tanks last forever, we buy the ink sets and eventually end up selling the RGB ink tanks on e-bay.We print mostly photos and occasionally web pages 

    Hi PGordini,
    The red and green inks are enhancement inks only used slightly to make the reds and greens in colors more vibrant.  Since they are only used as enhancements, they are not used nearly as much as the other cyan, magenta and yellow colors.  So we might be able to help figure out what's happening with your colors, please answer the following:
    1.  What is the source of the original image?  Is the image from a digital camera, scanner photo, web page, or other source?  What is the file size of the image?
    2.  Will the image print correctly on plain paper?  I understand the picture will not look as good on plain paper, but what I am looking to determine here is if the same color issues apepar.
    3.  What program was used to print the image?
    4.  Are you able to print the following sample image correctly?
    http://consumer.usa.canon.com/app/images/d_camera/s70_sample2.jpg
    6.  Does the Nozzle Check print correctly?  Follow these steps to print a Nozzle Check from the printer:
         a.  Make sure the printer is powered on and paper is loaded into the sheet feeder.
         b.  Press and hold the RESUME button on the top of the printer until the POWER light flashes twice.

  • Why does mi iphone don't let me edit the location?

    Porque mi iphone no me deja editar la localizacion?

    Ah, I see. The Apps tab that you are in just shows what apps are already on your iPad.
    Enable the sidebar:
    iTunes 11: Show Sidebar and Status Bar
    Find your iPad's name where it appears in the sidebar. To the left of that, there should be a small ">"
    Click that, and you should see tabs for Music, Apps, etc. THIS is where you can drag/copy content to.

  • Why does my iphone  4 have a 3g indicator

    why does my iphone 4 have a 3g indicator icon and how to I get 4g service on it?

    The only iPhone that will display a "4G" indicator is the AT&T iPhone 4S when connected to AT&T's HSPA+ network. The iPhone 4 is not a 4G phone.
    Also, the AT&T iPhone 4S will say 4G even if it is a 3G area.
    Mine will only indicate E (2G) or 4G.  It never ever shows
    3G, even when in known 3G location.

  • Why does my Epson printer keep disappearing from my ipad

    Why does my air printer keep disappearing from my ipad

    reboot the router (and the printer). 
    If still happening, check your router settings.  Is it set so that the lease on the printer IP expires?
    The pad has to see the printer as active, and on the same wifi network as the pad.
    You might also want to see if there is a firmware update for the printer available.

  • Why does my volume name have -1 suffixe ?

    Hi ... Why does my volume name have a «-1» suffixe ?

    If it finds a similar name on the network, it will add that.
    Also, if a drive gets "lost," that will happen. The original mount point still exists, so when it is remounted, it has to create a new mount point.
    If you Go to the Computer in the Go menu, do you see one with and one without the -1?

  • Why does my iPhone 4S have no signal in China Mobile?

    Why does my iPhone 4S have no signal in China Mobile? after I upgrade it to iOS 5.0.1. It works fine with iOS 5.0.0. Model Number is MC920LL.

    But it is very strange, now it works fine with China Union, only not with China Mobile. As it was purchased in USA, its original network should be one of USAs. If it was locked again, it should not work with any other networks.

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

  • Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content on the TV programmes... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content, surely it will cost nothing to release both?

    Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content?
    It would be just as easy to release both a dubbed version and then a subtitled version.
    I am a native english speaker but live in France. My father has just moved over to live with me in France and speaks very little French.
    The price for a television series is very often more than a dvd box set but does not offer language options.
    My French is passable but I would still prefer to hear the programme in English.
    Using itunes uk is not an option as my cards are french or english with a french postal address.
    The content has been adapted for the french site all i want is to access the original.
    The series i have been trying to buy is HBOs 'boardwalk empire'.
    The stupid thing is to please my father i would buy up most the HBO, BBC and Channel 4 content a cost of a couple of thousand euros.

    Try giving Apple feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback and also contact the Apple headquarters at http://www.apple.com/contact  We are all fellow users and not Apple employees and often raise questions like yours ourselves.  If enough make Apple aware of a market/need then something may be done about it.
    France has come a very long way with regard to other languages.  When I lived in France, mid-880s, there was an entire Ministry devoted to the purity of the French language...that was the time the PC came out.  A TV news person was cashiered for using the term 'computer' on-air instead of the French created word 'ordinateur'.  They took the language extremely seriously at that time.  At least today there is recognition and even use of English by the masses

  • Why does front row not have simple organization?

    I currently have a hard drive hooked into my macmini which is hooked up to my TV. On my hard drive I have over 1000 movies, all purchased through iTunes. However when I use front row and i goto the movie section, I have to scroll through every movie to get to the one I want. There's no way to scroll by letter, only one by one. This is horrible and takes forever. Can apple do an update that makes the right button on the apple remote for scrolling letter by letter. For example, you click the right button to goto movies starting with B, C, D, E, F, etc. Then the down button for one by one scrolling. Also, why does front row not have genres? AppleTV does. Why not incorporate that into front row? Think, Apple, Think.

    You can have sub-folders in the Movies folder and arrange your movies alphabetically that way.
    But if you want to alert Apple to your idea, then use this link:

  • Why does iTunes say I have two different total numbers of movies?

    On the sidebar, it lists 371 Movies. When I'm in Movies with everything listed, the number at the bottom next to total number of hours is 372 Movies. 372 Movies is the correct number of movies. I have all of those movies also loaded into iTunes on my laptop running 10.7. These are all movies which are hosted locally on a hard drive; none of them are iCloud downloads or matches. So why does it think I have 1 less movie on the side bar? Is there a way to find out if one particular film hasn't loaded properly or can't be read for some reason? Thanks

    The sidebar lists # of unplayed (not completed) items.
    They should have a blue dot (not played) or half blue dot (started but not completed) next to the name.

    Put in more RAM. Visit OWC, DataMem, or Crucial.com to purchase memory for your model. You computer would have more memory had you put more in a long time ago.
