Installing E325w wireless

$

0

I have installed drivers on my new E325w.  The documentation says the "Easy Install Wizard" should recognize my printer and set up a wireless connection.  But nothing on my install disk is called "Install Wizard" or anything close.  Where do I find this?

Thanks!


All cartridges needed?

My v725w won't print with the blue cartridge empty. I almost only print in black. Do I have to order a new blue to carry on??

5210n duplex stopped working

$

0

This has been a very reliable work group printer for years. Used with XP and Windows 7. Suddenly the duplex option can't be triggered with the driver. If you set it for duplex when sending a job it simply comes out on the front of two sheets. If duplex is forced by setting it through the printer menu, it works fine. I've tried cycling the power on the printer, futzing around with the drivers, etc but it just won't do it. It seems more likely the printer doesn't recognize the duplex command in the print job rather than five computers on the network are all suddenly unable to send the command. Any ideas how to further troubleshoot or, better, what might be wrong and how to fix?

How to reset the webservice admin account password | Dell B2375dnf Mono MFP |

Hello Support,

Is there a link on how to reset the admin password on my Dell B2375dnf Mono MFP?

Since the last firmware update i have not used the webservice [ews?sws] and now it

does not let me in via any browser.

The default password for the admin, or the password i made, do not work anymore...

I would like to install the latest firmware too but can not do that without a proper login.

Thank you, Josh [anoe]

B1160w WiFi Connection Issues

$

I have tried every wireless connection option in the user manual but have been unable to connect the printer to the network.

The WiFi Router is a Verizon one that has WPS.

I printed the Network Configuration page to get all the information i would need.

The WPS setup did not work (both the "PBC" and the "PIN").

I then connected to the printer using a network cable and retried the 2 WPS techniques, still did not work.

I then tried connecting to the network manually, that did not work.

I was however able to connect to my phone's wifi hotspot.  So i know that it is able to connect.

I also used my phone to connect to the router, so I know the router works.

Is there any way to debug why the printer can't connect to the router?

This is the user manual I used:

E525w. Cannot keep "online" at Google Cloud Print

Printer has worked fine for 4 months, but now---  I can get it to register with GCP, and it shows online, but if I try and send a print job, the job just goes into Queue, and the printer now shows offline.  The printer does show up as "available" for local printing, but even that goes away after about an hour.  

More info:  Using Google Cloud Print with Chromebook.  Verified that computer and modem are working properly by setting up an old Epson printer.  

Have reset the Dell to factory defaults, Upgraded the firmware on the Dell, Set a static IP address for the Dell, deleted all old print jobs that were "queued" or "expired", Changed my Gmail address, Upgraded my Chrome software to Beta, and re-registered the printer so many times I can do it in my sleep!  Spent 2 hrs with Google Chromebook support, and did everything they suggested.  Called my Centurylink internet provider and reset the modem, and did everything they could think of.  Called Dell, but was told that since my printer was 4 months old, I would have to pay extra to get service.  I was not happy about this, as it has to be something simple in my setup ( used for 4 months already!) , but decided to bite the bullet and pay the ransom.   Called and was told they don't work weekends or holidays-  call back on Tuesday.  

Sort of stuck here, as I only have Chromebooks, and they only work with Google Cloud Print.  

Anyone have any ideas what might be keeping this computer form communicating like the Epson does?  Should I just go out and buy an HP?

Some characters print wrongly C2660dn

$

I have just installed a brand new C2660dn printer on a W10 Pro x64 PC. The first page I printed was from a pdf file, which displayed correctly on screen. When printed, certain characters (g, S, 2) print in the wrong font, or not at all, and other page layout issues occur.

This is what the pdf file looks like:

And this is how it prints:

I have pasted the text into Word and the font is apparently "Oxygen Regular" and "Oxygen Bold". The same thing happens whether I print to PCL6 or PS.

If it is a strange font, how come Adobe and Word can manage to display it properly, but the printer gets all screwed up?

Any suggestions welcome.

Marmite.

Print larger page to fit 4x6 index card

Are there settings in Printing Preferences for C2660 to print a larger format document to "fit" a 4x6 index card?


I don't want to play with choosing a reduction factor--I just want it to fit the document


Dell E525w Scanner Drivers

$

I have had a E525w printer for just over a week now. Everything works just fine apart from two things that now have me stumped.

1. I installed the drivers using the disk that came with the printer. The following day I went to use the scanner but it says no scanner installed. So I re-installed the disk that came with it and still no scanner installed.

I then went to Dell download site for this printer and downloaded the latest drivers from the site, I then uninstalled the old drivers and installed the new drivers. Success, I now have a scanner installed.

However the next time I turn on my printer to scan it says no scanner installed, so I re-install it all over again and i see the scanner, that is until I switch off the printer because when I switch it back on it says no scanner installed.

So I went back to the download site and downloaded drivers for the scanner only, installed the drivers, scanner shows but again the next time I switch it on it says scanner not installed.

So what on earth is going on? It looks to me as if the scanner driver is disappearing in between installing them and turning my printer back on say the following day.

2. My second question is when I attach a USB memory stick it says "USB Host Error 016-930 system unsupported device". So what does that mean and what devices does it support.

Please advise.

onscreen print/scan utility?

E525W printer, user new to Dell kit.

Most other print/scan providers come with an on-screen utility to adjust scan settings

Does Dell provide one?  Seems odd (archaic?) to have to delve into pc driver settings to adjust those not available on the E525W miniscreen,

When I turn on the printer it stays live for two seconds and then immediately the sign "Powering Off" appears and switches off.  I have repeatedly tried unplugging the power source for considerable lengths of time but to no avail.  I would be grateful for any suggestions.

2155cdn Scan to Network with Windows 10 Microsoft Account

I recently upgraded to Windows 10 Pro and I can no longer scan to network with my Dell 2155cdn.

Under Address Book, I updated the Server Address SMB settings.  Specifically, I changed the username and password to match the Microsoft ID I now use to login to my Windows 10 machines at home.  So, instead of a local account, my user name is now "username@hotmail.com" as an example.

However, I get a SMB Login Error message that states:
"SMB logon failed. Check your login name (domain and user) and password. :031-522"

No matter how I configure it, I can't seem to get this account to work via SMB for scanning to the network.  Please help!

Creating a second admin account on the Embedded Web Service | B2375dnf Mono MFP

Hello

I do not know if this is even allowed by the EWS but i was hoping to find out if i can give admin permissions to a user account. In a call to the Dell support i was advised to leave the admin default password [admin] as is and not to change this. The EWS does want me to do this. I am confused.

Since i had troubles with changing the admin password i do not trust the system that much. There is a solution to reset the admin account password but i rather have two admins on a system.

1765nfw won't connect to win 7 or ubuntu 16.04

So I went into my router settings and the MAC address for the printer is listed in the router so my problem isn't there. It's the connection between the router and printer (so it seems). The cd drive is broken on this computer so any issue would have to be made without a disk. Also, in win 7 when I go to the printer properties, there is nothing under the hardware tab. Also, pinging the printer at 10.0.0.20 is futile, as is going into the printer from a web browser.

Unfortunately Rick's suggestion did not work.  I even left the printer unplugged for ten hours overnight but still no success. Gordon.

E525W offline since firmware update

Hi,
I have a problem with my Printer E525W, in that since I let the Dell Printer Hub update the firmware, I am unable to contact it.

Shortly after any restart, the data light begins to flash green, and the power light is steady orange.

My router says the device is connected, but the hub says it is offline, and I can get no response at the printer's console, and pings to the IP address time out.

Ideas?
