Wireless printing with HP printer and Netgear Router

I am a new MAC user, and I am trying to figure out how to set up my new MacBook wirelessly to my HP PSV 1600 printer. I have a Netgear router that is working great with my MacBook. I'm just unsure of how to connect my Macbook, Printer, and Router all together. I have heard of using a flash drive to save your network information from your Macbook, and then inserting flash drive into USB port on printer so printer recognizes network info. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I've never heard of it, but then I'm not a Windows user nor do I use any HP printers.
If the printer is a USB printer but you don't have a USB printer port on your router, then you would need to use a wireless access point such as an Airport Express to which the printer can connect to the USB port. Or you can connect the printer to a USB port on one of the computers. In either case the printer can then be shared using Printer Sharing.

Running a network with Time Capsule and Netgear router - is it possible?

We have an iMac and a Toshiba laptop. I was wondering if it was possible to have a wireless network with a Time Capsule and our Netgear DG834G router. We live in a solid brick house and the Netgear router is upstairs and we find we get very little, if any reception from downstairs. We have just purchased the Time Capsule and we were hoping to move the Netgear downstairs and have the Time Capsule upstairs to get reception all over the house. Is running a network like this possible, and if it is, how do we do it. Both the iMac and the laptop need to be able to connect. Thanks in advance.

HT3500 how can i connect my macbook pro wirelessly to an hp printer with a asus rt 66acr router?

how can i connect my macbook pro wirelessly to an hp printer with a asus rt 66acr router?

Firstly, the HP printer must be connected to the ASUS' network. Then, simply connect your MBP to the network and your printer should be addable in Print & Fax in System Preferences.

I've got a wireless network with one iMac and a Vista PC, on the Vista PC is through USB a printer connected. How can i print from my iMac to that particular printer ?

You need to turn on Printer Sharing on both the PC and OS X. I can't help you on Vista but in OS X it's System Preferences - Sharing - check the Printer Sharing box.

Would like to print from laptop to printer at home. Printer is ethernet connected to NetGear Router

HP PAvilion dv1000, Windows XP
Would like to print from laptop to printer at home. Printer is ethernet connected to NetGear Router.
I had been able to print wirelessly from laptop to HP 7310 Officejet all-in-one, but now all I get is "document failed to print" message. I can get documents to print on this printer using my smart phone, but not the laptop.
I have used "find printer" button on print screen and can see the printer to select.
Any suggestions?
This question was solved.

Figured it out after looking at a few other posts...
Configured port to printer IP Address and now it is printing perfectly.
Thanks for having posts out there to review.

Trouble printing with Epson 2880 and SL

Installed SL on my MBP but not my iMac yet as it is my main computer for printing with Aperture. I have been very happy with the 2880 and how well the prints match what I see on the screen (calibrated with i1d2). Well with SL I downloaded rosetta and the new 2880 drivers (as instructed by Epson), but whenever I choose a paper profile e.g., Premium Photo Glossy, the picture in Aperture Print Pane turns a purple hue. I, of course, have color management turned off in the Print Settings dialog. Anyone have any idea what is going on? As far as I can tell I'm not doing anything differently. More importantly, has anyone been able to get good photo printing with SL, Aperture and the new Epson drivers for the 2880 or similar Epson printer?
Thanks, Jim

That KB article just saved me from going back to 10.5. I was having the same purple problem with all Ilford and Hahnemuhle profiles.
That problem is now gone (by just disabling Black Point Compensation) but: when trying to print from Aperture (2.1.4) with my R2880, any paper I choose is apparently stuck at +roll paper+, giving a +wrong source+ error when it reaches the printer. I now have to hit preview, select the correct page setup and profile and print from there. So far this seems to work. But it's a pain and not what I want to be stuck doing for very long.
I had this problem before but only when printing to Manual-Roll. Now even Sheet Feeder options don't work. This would all be fixed if we only had a proper Page Setup option in Aperture as in every other OS X application...
At least that convoluted method gives me the right colors - which I was definitely not getting by going the system managed route.
Growing pains anyone?

Cannot print with Cannon LBP5000 and Timecapsule

So I've read that the Cannon LBP5000 is not compatible after all with Time Capsule. Due to the CAPT Driver being bi-directional. I do not accept this as a resolution and feel that Apple cannot simply push this aside. My reason for that is this.
I was printing fine, with both my MBP and Air via a USB cable to my Cannon LBP5000 - great.
I then decided to go wireless printing. And bought a HP 2101nw print server for £30. I could then print wirelessly - fab!
I then decided to upgrade my MBP to Lion. I then could no longer print on that machine. Air still fine - pants.
I then had to (for other support reasons) upgrade my Air to Lion, to fix something else. I could no longer print from their either - bugger.
After much passing of bucks and research, I found out the HP 2101nw driver is not Lion compatible, nor do Apple or HP have any intention of fixing that. I was told to discard that wireless print server for something compatible with Lion - cheers.
I then bought a 2TB TimeCapsule. And found I couldnt print from that either for the lame reason I quoted at the start.
If this print worked wirelessley with a £30 print server on Snow Lepoard, why is it acceptable for it to not work on a £249 device. The printer hasnt changed, but it seemed a £30 solution is able to handle this 'Bi-Directional' impediment where the mighty TimeCapsule gives up.
What a load of tosh - really, really unimpressed Apple. Take ownership and responsiblity for something for once and fix the exceptionally painful transistion you pushed us through with Lion.

How can I print with the black and white cartridge only?

I am trying to print using the black and white cartridge only because magenta is out of ink but I'm getting the following error message in HP Photosmart C7200 series print dialog:
The printer is out of ink.
The following ink cartridges are empty: Magenta. Replace these ink cartridges to resume printing.

I am absolutely disgusted by this; clearly a scam from HP to make more money by selling extra ink cartridges!! I will make sure to never buy any products from the shoddy rip off merchants at HP ever again!!
You should be ashamed!!

PDFs printing with black background and white text.

For some reason some of our PDF's have been printing with black backgrounds and white text, even though they appear to be normal on the screen before they are printed. I haven't been able to confirm 100% yet but it appears to only be happening with pdfs that were created from scanned documents.
Can somebody please offer me some suggestions.

Absolutely agree with the original poster. I find white text on black background so very very difficult (I changed from using Tweetbot on iOS to Tweetlogix for this very reason) and it physically hurts my eyes to try to read it. I can just about manage with Spotify using white text on a black background on the large screen of my MacBook Pro - and I do mean "just" - but for the smaller screen of my iPhone 5 it is just impossible. Even with a retina screen such as that on the iPhone 5S there is a strange ghosting effect and it gives me a headache to look at it for too long.
This may be something to do with age! I suspect most app developers are youngsters with almost perfect eyesight, but for those of us whose eyesight is less than perfect, this white text on black background really is so very difficult.
I know there is a workaround in setting the iPhone to invert ALL colours (under Accessibility in Settings) but it's a real pain to have to keep altering this setting every time I want to open or close Spotify, and it doesn't look right anyway. iOS7 is supposed to be a light, bright, easy to read OS - sadly this new Spotify app is the opposite of that.
Please would Spotify consider adding a simple light or dark theme option, so that those of us who want it can have our much easier to read light background back again, with grey or black text? It would be a great help to those of us who have eyesight problems.
If not, I may have to cancel my Spotify Premium account and move to Deezer instead, as I mainly use Spotify when out and about in the car, so am using the iOS app a lot.
Thank you for considering this plea!

Problems with borderless printing with iPhoto '08 and HP Photosmart Printer

I am trying to print borderless 4x6 photos on HP Photosmart C6250 (same as all HP C62xx Photosmart printers). I am using the HP 4x6 photo paper with the perforated tab. When I select the paper size, I specify Borderless 4x6 in/10 x15 cm (tab). According to the printer manual, the tab should be facing out. I have tried printing with tab out and the tab in. With tab in, it printed the picture leaving white space at the other end equal to length of tab. With tab out as printer specified, it left a white gap at beginning of photo (not as wide as tab) and printed the photo over the perforated tab.
Anyone else figured out how to print using the 4x6 paper with tabs. I also tried printing from the HP software included with the printer and it has issues, too. So, it might be an HP problem, or is it maybe a Mac printing issue with this printer.
Thanks for any help!

Barbara:
This is a shot in the dark but take a look at the following topic. It might just help. As they say, any port in a storm.
Topic : iphoto won't print properly to HP photosmart
It does seem like a bizarre solution however. Good luck.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

When printing from Preview, the document prints with large print and many lines added and pages added

When printing from Preview, the document prints with large print and many lines added and pages added. Why does this happen?

Thank you!!! That was the problem--scale was set at 200% (don't know why)--when I reduced it to 100% it printed perfectly.
Thanks again for helping me resolve this problem.

Anything printed with firefox prints too small

anything printed with firefox prints too small. If I print and email it prints in the center top of the page and is just larger than a credit card. if I adjust the scale to 100% the it prints what could fit on one page onto 4 pages and prints a small portion in the center top of the page and is just larger than a credit card.

Ok i think i fixed this issues.
i went to about:config print.print_margin_bottom (and also left, right and top) and right clicked reset (it took out the previous 0.5 value). now the pages look normal on print preview without the large margin
