Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Find Wireless Printer With E2000

Sep 5, 2011

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 (running Vista Home Premium) that connects to my Linksys E2000 and to a wireless printer, the Canon MX870.  It's been working for months without problems.
 
I just got a Toshiba Satellite P770-BT4G22 Laptop (running Window 7 Professional 64 bit) and installed the Cisco Connect software following the instructions where you have already set up the router and just need to install the software to do things like add a device.  I can connect to the router fine using a web browser or the Cisco Connect Software and my Toshiba connects to the Internet through the router without problems.
 
The problem is Cisco Connect says it can't find a wireless printer when I run it on my new Toshiba.  I've put the printer within 3 feet of the router with my Toshiba in between but still it can't find it.  My Dell in another room connects to the printer no problem.  And I can print to the Canon if I  select the Shared Canon Printer ( on the Dell) using the Toshiba's Control Panel Add Printer function.  But obviously that means the Dell has to be on so that's not good for much more than troubleshooting.  I've also wired a connection from the printer to the Toshiba and downloaded the latest driver, printed that way so I know that's not the problem.  The problem is that Cisco Connect can't find the printer.  It says there are 6 devices attached to my router so it's seeing something, but I guess not the printer.  I've turned any firewalls off for this testing too.
 
I'm stumped as to why it can't find the printer when the Dell did and they are all on the same network. Unless it's not compatible with 64 bit Windows.

How To Find Printer Name On Network

Aug 4, 2011

We purchased a new printer which is running on a network where one computer is running Windows 7 and the other Windows XP. The printer cable is connected to the Windows 7 computer. The print function works fine on the Windows 7 but doesn't work on Windows XP. Asking me for a "printer name" and I don't know what to put in that option. When I go to printers and faxes I click on each of the options under shared printers and it still asks for "printer name"?

Wired PC Cannot Find Wireless Printer

Mar 17, 2012

Desktop PC running Windows 7 connected to D-Link DIR-655 via cable.I then have a Laptop also running Windows 7 connected to router wireless.Finally, I have a Brother MFC-490CW printer connected to the network wireless as well.Checked out the router status page - it shows all three devices connected properly.My PC, however cannot find the printer to save its' life; I've tried auto-detecting, entering the IP address; none of this seems to work, the PC just REFUSES to find the printer. If I connect the Printer to the router with a cable - my PC finds it alright.I'll admit - wireless networking is not my forte - and so I'm not sure, but my Laptop is connected to my specific wireless network (by name) while my PC is just showing as connected to "Network"

New Laptop Cannot Find Wireless Printer?

Aug 26, 2011

I just picked up a new Windows 7 laptop for my home. My live in girlfriend has a Vista laptop and we both connect wirelessly to our linksys network. We also have a lexmark printer that is connected wireless as well. The Vista laptop has worked and prints fine with the lexmark. Now I have been trying to connect my new laptop to find the printer but when trying to add a new printer or even trying to add a new device windows 7 never finds the printer. I have installed the drivers from lexmark and have even enabled sharing on the printer properties from within the Vista laptop and still my win7 cannot find anything. What can i do to add this printer?

Compaq Laptop Can't Find Wireless Printer Brother MFC-J430W

Aug 15, 2012

I am using a Compaq laptop, and i have Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter attached to it.I used to be able to connect to a Printer Brother MFC-J430W via wireless and print from it.But recently, when I try to print from it, it says that the printer is offline. I tried restarting my laptop, wireless adapter, and the printer, I also try restarting the spooler service but the attempt was not successful. Try unchecking SNMP and the printer is online but I can't print from it. So, I decided to uninstall the printer and reinstall it again. This is where another problem occurs. When I try reinstalling it, my laptop seems to be unable to find the printer (I have entered the IP address of my Printer but the printer still can't be found). Oh, and by the way, other laptop seems to be able to print a document from that printer.

Dell :: Dimension E521 / AIO Center Cannot Find Networked 962 Printer

Oct 13, 2011

Trying to print from a Dimension E521 using Dell AIO Center to a hard-wired networked 962 printer hosted on an Inspirion 530 using a LinkSys WRT54G V8 router. Cannot scan or fax from the Dimension via the network.  During software install, the printer is not automatically detected on the network and it has to be manually assigned.  Attempt to print test page via the network during software install results in a document in the print queue that hangs the printer with a print error.   After the aborted test page, nothing works.

Using the VISTA Control Panel can successfully set up the printer and can print a test page to it.  In this case, the printer install CAN see the printer on the network, so I don't think it is a network issue.

However, if the control panel is used to install the printer, the AIO center cannot find it at all and displays an error that software and drivers are not installed. Yes, Network and Sharing are all set up correctly and, no, the Firewall is not the problem as it is turned off on both machines.

Drivers are not the issue.  I have deleted the drivers and reinstalled them so many times in the last week I can do it in my sleep.

Dell :: 1505 Adapter - Can't Find Own Router But Can Find Neighbor's

Jul 12, 2013

this might sound straight forward, but every other pc or console can find and connect to my router.This issue seems to happen about once every few months, sometimes it comes back by itself and reconnects completely fine.

There isn't a "user limit" on our router.Wireless adapter is dell wireless 1505 draft 802.11n wlan mini-card.

Have restarted PC and uninstalled and reinstalled the card.I tried to set the i.p address to static but it says "adapter disconnected" so won't allow me to edit any settings, despite it being able to find neighbour's wireless very easily.

Canon MF8300 Printer - Unable To Locate Printer On Network

Mar 21, 2011

I have 2 desktops (running windows 7), a Canon MF8300 printer, and an outgoing ethernet line, all on a Netgear Advanced Cable Modem Gateway CGD24-CPR. I'm only concerned with having the 2 desktops set up with the Canon printer.Both computers have been connected to the printer before and I have the startup disk. But once the new offices were set up and both of the desktops were moved, I can no longer access or find the printer.

I can IPconfig the Desktops for their IPV4 addresses and both desktops recognize eachother on a Homegroup, but I can't find the printer. I printed off the print configuration page from the printer which gave me an IP address (printer is set for auto-obtain), but using an IP search won't bring up the printer.All of the devices are plugged into ethernet ports set up for the three different office they are in and the actual location of the Netgear cable modem/router is over 100 feet away. My primary concern is getting the printer for the desktops, but I also need to add a wireless router into one of those office in the future.

D-Link DIR-655 :: WPS Registered Printer IP Is 0.0.0.0 / Mac Printer MIA

Dec 8, 2011

I used WPS on my DIR-655 Rev B1 FW 2.03NA to register a Brother HL-2270DW Wifi laser printer and my Mac can never wake it up to print. It always works fine from all my Windows machines.It appears as xxx.xxx.xxx.6 on my network. But the router only shows its IP as 0.0.0.0 on the STATUSWireless page and I can't find any way to change that. My assumption is that the Mac can't find it because of this, but I'm not an expert on WPS.Maybe I should take it out of WPS and just assign it a fixed IP using DHCP Reservation. Or is there another fix? I haven't ruled out the Brother OS X printer driver, but it and the printer's firmware are both up to date.Two odd things:

1. I can ping the printer from my PCs but the Mac can't find see in and it's not a Firewall issue.

2. I can see the brother printer in Finder's Shared devices: so it sees it but refuses to interact.

Using A Printer Via Network And Router?

Nov 30, 2011

I have a Laptop running Win7 via a router and a desktop running XP with a canon printer connected to it. The desktop is hardwired into the router and the laptop is wireless. Im using Panda Internet Security 2012, Windows Firewall and Defender.If I want to print something from my Laptop, Im able to by having the Desktop PC and printer turned on and have the Windows Firewall enabled and the Panda Firewall disabled on both machines. If I have the Panda Firewall enabled on both PCs and the Windows Firewall disabled, then the printer will not print from the laptop.I have read that the Windows firewall will automatically adjust settings for the 2 PCs, but I would prefer to use the Panda Firewall.

Web Printer Install With USR5461 Router

Jul 27, 2011

I cannot re-install my network printer via the USR web-print server at the URL identified by my USR5461 router page in Win XP SP3 even though it has worked for years. When I try to type in or cut & paste insert the URL for the web print server per USR's instructions, from the router home page, I get an error message that the printer was not found (even if I cut and paste the URL directly from my router's setup home page). The router home page indicates the printer status is "ready". In all other respects the router works fine for home networking and internet.I suspect I may have to manually set up an internet port for the printer but don't know how to do that in XP apparently.
