Title: configuring DIR-655 with the DPR-1260
Post by: Madcap on May 10, 2010, 01:44:26 PM
I have not been able to print wirelessly via the DPR-1260 since setting up my DIR-655.  The router "sees" the print server, and the print server "sees" the printer (the status pages show connections between the two on each device).  I am able to scan to a file from the printer, but am not able to print (unless USB is connected of course).

Since the DIR-655 is new to the family, I am looking at it as the culprit.  Can anyone offer some guidance on getting the data through to the printer?

Equipment:

- HP Photosmart 3210 All-in-One
- DPR-1260
- DIR-655 (ch.11, mixed mode, WPA2, device connections include 3 laptops, 1 blackberry, and 4 direcTV MACs, fwiw)

What other information should I provide?

Thank you!!

I have this working perfectly in my environment. Have you setup the wireless section in your DPR1260?? You will need to set up the SSID of your network and enter the password. I have it working with 3 different printers. I did have to configure it wired first then disconnected it from my LAN and haven't had a problem with it since.

Not that I was aware of. Bumped it in case user logs on and it is way down the list. Please excuse me I had no intention of hijacking. Just like to help when I can.  :)

Sorry for delay in response.....been busy in the yard.  Thank you for your post.

I will confirm, but I am 99.9% sure it all "looks" like it's supposed to on the DPR's page.  I am able to scan using wireless, and the printer is "set up" on the DPR.

So I guess my question, rephrased is:  Why would I be able to scan, but not print, assuming the printer and print server are working correctly?

Still having the same issues described above.

Perhaps I should omit the print server and attempt to use the Share Port connection on the DIR-655?  Any advice for me with regards to that?

Thanks everyone.
