process, which prepares the device and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information see

Wireless network troubleshooting

The printer cannot be found during software installation

If the HP software is unable to find your printer on your wireless network during software installation, go to the HP Wireless Printing Center at www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting for troubleshooting help. The Wireless Printing Center has a Network Diagnostic Utility (for Windows only) that can help diagnose and solve your wireless printing problems. You can also try the

English

following troubleshooting steps.

Wireless connections

1: Determine if the product is connected to the network by pressing the Wireless button. If the printer has been idle, you

may need to press the wireless button twice to display the wireless menu. If the printer is connected, you will see the IP address (for example, 192.168.0.3) on the printer display. If the printer is

not connected, you will see Not Connected on the printer display. From the printer display, select Print Reports, then select Wireless Test or Configuration to print the reports. The wireless network test report will display the diagnostic results for the status of the wireless network, wireless signal strength, detected networks, and more. The network configuration page will display the network status, host name, network name, and more.

2: If you determined in Step 1 that the product is not connected to a network and this is the first time you are installing the

software, insert the printer software CD and then follow the onscreen instructions.

If the device is unable to join your network, check for these common issues:

• You might have picked the wrong network or typed in your network name (SSID) incorrectly. Check and make sure

that you enter the same SSID as the computer is using.

• You might have typed in your wireless password (WPA passphrase or WEP key) incorrectly (if you are using

encryption). Note: If the network name or the wireless password are not found automatically during installation, and if you don’t know them, you can download an application from www.hp.com/go/networksetup that might help you locate them. This application works for only Windows Internet Explorer and is only available in English.

• You might have a router problem. Try restarting both the product and the router by turning off the power for each of

them, and then on again.

Wireless network troubleshooting

3: Check for and resolve the following possible conditions:

• Your computer might not be connected to your network. Make sure that the computer is connected to the same network

to which the HP Deskjet is connected. If you are connected wirelessly, for example, it is possible that your computer is connected to a neighbor’s network by mistake.

• Your computer might be connected to a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

with the installation. Being connected to a VPN is like being on a different network; you will need to disconnect the VPN to access the product over the home network

• Security software might be causing problems. Security software installed on your computer is designed to protect your

computer against threats that can come from outside your home network. A security software suite can contain different types of software such as an anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall and child protection applications. Firewalls can block communication between devices connected on the home network and can cause problems when using devices like network printers and scanners. A quick troubleshooting technique is to disable your firewall and check if the problem goes away. Problems that you might see include:

- The printer cannot be found over the network when installing the printer software.

- You suddenly cannot print to the printer even though you could the day before.

- The printer shows that it is OFFLINE in the printer and faxes folder.

- The software shows the printer status is “disconnected“ even though the printer is connected to the network.

- If you have an All-in-One, some functions work, like print, and others don’t, like scan.

• Sometimes, cycling the power will recover a network communication issue. Turn off the router, printer, and computer, and then turn them back on in this order: router first, then the printer, and finally the computer.

If you are still having wireless printing problems go to the Wireless Print Center at www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting. The Wireless Printing Center has a Network Diagnostic Utility (for Windows only) that can help diagnose and solve your wireless printing problems.

Tips for using security software:

• If your firewall has a setting called trusted zone, use it when your computer is connected to your home network.

• Keep your firewall up to date. Many security software vendors provide updates which correct known issues.

• If your firewall has a setting to not show alert messages, you should disable it. When installing the HP software and

using the HP printer, you may see alert messages from your firewall software. You should allow any HP software which causes an alert. The alert message may provide options to allow, permit, or unblock. Also, if the alert has a remember this action or create a rule for this selection, make sure and select it. This is how the firewall learns what can be trusted on your home network.

Temporarily disable the VPN before proceeding
