Wireless setup problem for HP Officejet J6480 All - in - One printer

I can not get my printer setup wirelessly.  When I send a print job to it, the message comes back, printer offline. 
I can hook up the USB cable and it prints fine.  I installed the software on my IMac as instructed.  I used the HP Printer manager.  My IMac is setup with the airport and I have a wireless router.
Through the setup button on the printer I printed off the "wireless network test report" and  the "HP network configuration" page.  They show no errors.
Can anyone help me out? 
I need to be able to wirelessly print from my IMac, a Gateway desktop, a Dell laptop and a Toshiba laptop. 

connecting Wireless to HP j6480 printer
Problem is when I go to menu and press wireless network printer option. It’s just press menu then use the arrow keys on each side of the OK button. Then press down to Wireless Network Wizard. Press the OK button. I think the Wireless Network Wizard is the third option down when you are in the Wizard. It will then ask you for the wep for your router. I have the Verizon Jet pack from Verizon. But I assume you could use any router. My router wep was all numbers for example 99000627xxxxx all numbers. I tried and tried and kept putting in the wep but it kept coming back wrong wep code. What I did not watch was the numbers I was putting in were wrong. For example when I was putting in 990000627XXXXX that was not being put in. What was being put in was something like ypt$&^ etc. I did not know when you were putting in the numbers you had to keep pushing on the 9 key until a nine came up, then it would go to the next number you had to put in. You had to do the same for the second, third, fourth and etc until you entered all of the code. Then the wireless router connected. Why does someone not tell you that.

    Hi - Does it print slowly from all applications or just certain ones?  In either case, you can try following the steps in this document.
    In addition, try going into Control Panel, Printer, right click on the printer and choose Printer Properties.  Click on the Advanced Tab and select Print Direcly to the Printer.
    Hope that helps.

  • Officejet J6480 All-In-One Printer

    I just bought a new Dell tower with Windows 8.1.  When I was installing the printer's software, it told me that I needed new software for a 64 bit computer, which I found online.  Everything seemd fine for the type of documents I first printed.  However, when I attempted to print a document created with Microsoft Works, I would get an error message telling me to clear a paper jam, even though the printer would kick out a blank sheet of paper. 
    I would always check to make sure there wasn't a jammed piece of paper, even though I knew there wasn't one.  Three times I unplugged both the power and USB cords, and still it would not print.  I finally created a new document from a blank letterhead page, then copied and pasted the content of the first document.  That new document printed.  However, this afternoon, when I attempted to print another Works document, I got the same paper jam message, even though it kicks out a full sheet of paper.  I tried my same fix, creating a new document, but this time, I got the error message.
    This afternoon, I downloaded HP's Install Wizard and Print And Scan Doctor.  Both told me nothing was wrong.  I then uninstalled and reintalled the printer's software.  Again, I get the same paper jam error message, though the paper does not jam.
    I am able to print documents created with Quatro pro though, with no problems.  Thinking the problem has to be with Works, yesterday, I uninstalled and reinstalled that program, which did no good.  A thought did occur to me right now, I use Works 9, an outdated program (I know, I'm probably the only one still using Works and Quatro pro).  Could this be the problem?

    Hey there @GnirpsNevets , welcome back to the community
    Yes, using Microsoft Works could very well be the issue.  You have tried all of the troubleshooting for the printer that I would have suggested to you in hopes to have it working for your however, it's discontinued and support on it seems scarce.
    Check out this alternative from Paul_Tikkanen to see if that helps:

  • Officejet J6480 All-in-One Printer prints document leaves "error sent to printer" message in que.

    I have an officejet 6480 connected wirelessly that I'm printing to from an eithernet connected computer running Windows 8. When I print a document from various programs (notepad, adobe, outrlook, etc.) the document prints OK, but I'm left with a message in the que under status that says "error - sent to printer". 8/2 is listed under pagesand I'm printing a two page document. I've run HPSSdr and it says errors were found and it clears the que, but the next time I print I have the same problem. The printer is connected to an Actiontec PK5000 wireless/eithernet DSL modem/router. It is a securred router with a WEP password. When I do a test print from the HP software it clears OK, but it leaves the other message in the que. I also ran SFC /scannow, which didn't find any problems.
    This question was solved.

    The problem seems to have rectified itself. I did a system restore to before the last required updates and still had the problem. I reinstalled the updates that were removed and the problem seems to have gone away. I had to turn off and back on the printers wifi connection because I was getting a printer unavailable message. After all that it seems to be working now.

    the cartridge door on my officejet printer has come off/out of the back hinges and no matter what I do, it won't reconnect or close.  Any thoughts?

    I opened my cartridge too far and it came off its hinges.  How do I get it back installed ?  There appears that nothing is broken.

    Thanks for responding. What I did today was hard wire the printer to computer. then was able to get my original printer icon back and it was set as the default printer. I deleted the other icons, they were ghosted  and I didn't what to use them. the one was a online printer going back to HP. Now I have to got my son to fix the remaining problem I have, with my messing around I somehow change the Network Name on the printer. He is a computer eng working on high tech cameras and also is the administrator of my machine. He has me locked out of administrative rights and for good reason, I wrecked a couple computers and when he built this one for me that was the rule. There is a little info that I don't have to finalize the last step in changing the Network Name back. I have run the printer from the printer control panel and it did find the correct Network and Network Name but is seemed like that is far as I could go. So I'm not that far from completing this project.

  • Officejet 7310xi All in One Printer no longer connects wirelessly

    Hello all,
    My Officejet 7310xi All in One Printer no longer connects wirelessly.
    The printer does no show up while searching for it wirelessly where it had previously.
    In the past it would say that the printer (HP Series 7300) was offline.  I would remove the device through the control panel and search again.  A printer would be found as HP Series 7300 (Copy 1) . A "ghost" of the original would remain as an offline device.  I would default to the new printer icon, Copy 1, and it would work.  This happened over the course of a year without any problems.
    Now nothing is working.  The printer can't be found by my network.  I tried downloading drivers, etc. from HP but they either can't download or stop during installation. I don't know if an Windows 8.1 update affected it.
    Although the printer has a built in  network set up option, it has no installation wizard.  I can't find a way to activate the wireless feature/icon.  There is no I.P. address either.
    I feel like a monkey pulling levers for a banana!  I appreciate your help.

    Hey @Kathlanta ,
    Thank you for taking the time out of your day to ask that question on the HP Forums today!
    I understand you are having issues with your HP Officejet 7310xi connecting and staying on your network. Going through all of this is making you feel much like this;
    By the end of this I want you feeling more like this;
    Now let's get to the bottom of this and have some fun doing it! (and no, I have not completely adopted the idea that you are a monkey, but for the time being, seems most fitting LOL )
    Ok, so what we are going to start with here is; a full print system uninstall and reinstall and run it through USB to test the printers functionality.
    Here is how you uninstall the whole printer software on 8.1 >> Uninstalling The Printer
    Here is how you install the drivers offline (use the appropriate links to get your steps) >> Installing HP Printer Software for a USB Connection in Windows 8
    You wont need to worry about the wireless right yet until we figure out if the rpinter hardware is ok or not. So sit tight on that portion, I'll get that all back and working later after we figure this stuff out now.
    Look forward to hearing back from you! Have a good one!

  • Need driver (*.inf) files for HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-one

    I am setting up a print server and it needs *.inf driver files for my HP OfficeJet 5610 All-in-one printer. Where can i find them? I've installed the drivers on my PC, but they come as *.exe files that will not extract to give the *.inf files. Can anyone help?

    Hello, First I would like to say that I dont like what HP does, I dont want all your software cloging up my computer. What I want if for the hardware I have purchased from you to work the way I want to. Nothing more nothing less. Please give your customers the chance to pick the software they want and not fill up the pc with trash.
    PlanoStar You will find the x86 inf file in the Windows XP Package, it about an 68mb download, just extract EP-CDB-enu_NB.exe using Winrar.
    And ofcourse after the hours spent, with HP trolling you, you would think you are done. Think again. Microsoft will pick up the tradition with some Install x86 Medea ntprint.inf BS. to solve this problem download the files needed from here.
    It will save you hours instead of mounting AIO images and whatever.
    Ps. I have just registered with HP with the sole reason of making this post, and I would just like to say that hp support is rubbish.

  • Communication Failure With HP Officejet J6480 All-In-One

    I bought a new printer, an HP Officejet J6480 All-In-One, and set it up with my PC.
    Then, I set it up with my mac. I get this error: "Communication Failure: The computer is no longer able to communicate with your printer. Turn the printer off, check your printer connections and check for printer errors, and turn the printer back on."
    I recently bought an Epson printer but returned it cause it was too slow. That printer gave me a similar (maybe the same, I don't remember) error. I can scan and check ink levels but I can't print. I'm connected by USB by the way.
    What's wrong? I downloaded the latest drivers and software yesterday. Why can't I print?

    And on HP Photosmart C7280 All-In-One.
    I've got mine connected to the network on Ethernet - figured that would be less problematic than wifi - and my MacPro can see everything about the printer, just not print to it. This includes the C7280's built-in webserver which - like alot of SOHO routers - gives you a web-based interface to the printer's configuration and status. Everything on that page looks right-on, but no printing.
    The printer's copy and fax functions work, and I can even scan images and save them across the network onto my machine, so the printer is already interoperating with the network to a high degree, just not printing.
    Like alot of people, I bypassed the HP driver CD and downloaded a fresh software package yesterday from HP's site (200MB+, ***?), which is what I used to configure my system. As far as I could tell, there appear to be no firmware updates available for this printer. MacOS "Software Update" doesn't offer any printer driver updates - I'll try the posted link to Apple's site next.

  • Problem setting up HP 6310 all-in-one printer/scanner

    I have just installed archlinux for the first time, and so far everything is working great except for a HP 6310 all-in-one printer/scanner. This printer is connected by wire to a router, and the computer communicates with the router over a wireless connection. I have managed to install the printer through cups and print a test page. The problem is getting hplip and sane set up. I belive that if I get hplip set up correctly that that will take care of the sane problem.

    Something about the backend isn't right, but I'm out of my depth here. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    One other point. It works with no problem in Ubuntu with both hplip and sane, so I know it is possible. I just haven't figured out the trick yet.

    Well, it's fixed now, but I'm not sure why. I hooked up a HP 3970 usb scanner to my computer and when I started xsane it not only found it, but also found the 3610 all-in-one on the network. I checked hp-tools, and the 3610 was there also.So everything is working now, but I'm still curious as to why the 3610 wouldn't work with sane and hp-setup until I plugged in the 3970 to the computer.

  • HP Officejet 4630 all-in-one printer Cancels Print in Middle of Job

    Hi,
    I recently bought an HP Officejet 4630 all-in-one printer, and it automatically cancels jobs in the middle of printing. The computer I am using is an HP Envy dv7 with 64-bit Windows 8, and I am printing over a wireless network connection. My computer receives an error that HP Officejet 4630 series couldn't complete print and the printer simply says canceling. I have tried all the steps in the troubleshooting sections, both for printing issues and network connections. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the software multiple times, I've established a manual IP, and everything else, but nothing seems to work. It also seems to have the issue when using HP ePrint. It happens in all sorts of programs and formats such as word, pdf, and html. Unfortunately, I did not receive a USB cord, so I can't see if that will fix the problem at all. Hopefully somebody can help me with this, otherwise it's obvious that there's a problem with the actual printer I got and I'm going to have to get something else.
    Thanks
    This question was solved.

    This is how I fixed it:
    Find out what the IP address is that your printer is using. 
    Then go to control panel and click on "View Devices and Printers".
    Look for your printer an right click.
    Click "Printer Properties" and a new screen will open.
    Along the top you will see some tabs. Click the one that says "Ports"
    Click "Add Port"
    Highlight "Standard TCP/IP Port" by clicking on it, then click "New Port".  A new screen will open.
    Click "Next"
    Type in the IP Address of your printer and click "Next"
    Your computer should find your printer.
    Click "Apply" and your printer should work correctly.

Thank Yopu ,JS

    Hi jspin3,
    I'd like to help.  For now, I would hold off on the uninstall and reinstall.  Can you answer some questions?
    Is the printer connected by USB, Ethernet or wireless?
    Do you get any error messages?
    Does a blank page come out or do no pages come out when you try to print from the computer?
    If you put a document face down on the scanner glass, are you able to make a photocopy?
    Can you estimate the ink levels, in percent full for each cartridge, by looking at the printer ink gauge?  Click Here 
    If you print a  Self Test Report,  do all of the colors print?
    Also, remember a click on the Kudos star to the left is a quick "Thanks" for a helpful post.
