Fillable Online Sfu Wireless Printing For Mac
Following the WPS methiod I believe (based on solid WiFi blue light on printer) I've established a wireless connection between my ARRIS DG2460 router and my HP P1102W printer; however, the system preferences on my Macbook Pro indicate my printer is offline so it won't print. I've restarted the printer but that didn't solve the problem so I then unplugged the router and plugged it back in after 10 seconds but that didn't work. The printer shows in my printers and scanners section in system preferences; it just indicates it is offline. Can someone please explain how to make the printer online? The printer will work if I connect it to my Mac using a USB cable but I prefer to print wireless. I'm not a computer tech person so appreciate any layperson explanations.
I can't print wirelessly. It was working fine this morning, then it stopped working. THe blue Wireless light is blinking slowly. I'v elooked at online documentation, and checked a few things, but it looks like I have to re-set up the printer (I've had it for about five years, got it when I got my Macbook Air).
THe Deskjet test report page says 'Network Name (SSID) Found' is FAIL, so I guess that's the problem. I got to the point where I have to push the WPS button on my router, but I don't have one. So I tried the PIN method, but where do I enter it since the printer doesn't have a keyboard? I tried calling Verizon, who is the manufacture of my router, and they couldn't help. Meanwhile, I am printing with a cable attached (98% of my printing is done from my Macbook) but I'd like to fix this wireless problem eventually. Good day, This is a great place to visit for Community and HP support! I see that you need to configure the printer over the wireless network again. I would like to be able to help you. Since there isn't the full software and drivers for this model for 10.10, we can configure the printer over an Adhoc connection and then convert it to infrastructure.
(your network) I would restore the printer defaults: Go to setup, wireless, settings, restore defaults. Then go back into the menu again and Enable Wireless.
Restart the router. Click the Airport near the top right corner on the Mac. Click on the HP printer from the list. It takes about 3 minutes to connect. Once you get a solid blue light on the printer, it is connected successfully. You won't be connected to your network for a bit while we setup the printer on the network. Print out the configuration page to get the printer's IPv4 address.
Open up your web browser, (Safari) type in the IPv4 address for the printer. This will load the Embedded Web Server for the printer. Now we can configure the printer over the wireless network. Click on the Networking tab, on the left side click on Wireless, fill out your information for the network. (SSID-Network Name, set it to infrastructure, fill in your passwords and encryption type) Apply the settings. Now go back to the Airport near the top right corner on the Mac and select your network name.
We just have to add the network printer on the Mac now. Click on the Apple. Click system preferences, click the print and scan icon, then click the + sign, then select the printer from the list, click on Add. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in) Test the printer.
