wireless printers

Apr 22, 2010 1:24AM PDT

I have an Hp wireless printer. I must have uninstalled program several times and reinstalled it, it never worked properly. I think I got it to print once and then it wouldn't print at all but, the printer status would show that it was printing. The weird thing about it was I could print a test page. I went to HP site and downloaded and tried a few program that might fix the problem, but it didn't work. I made sure that it was compatable with windows 7. I finally went back and am using my old Hp Printer with no problems.

HP Wireless HP2608 won't do its job...
Apr 23, 2010 3:35PM PDT

Same problem here between OS Vista and HP All-In-One 2608. Sometimes it prints but does not scan or fax. Sometimes it scans but won't print. Sometime it shows offline. RI right click to go online, but the window shows Offline. Click on it and it shows Offline (two times) in printer window. HP Drivers/solutions on their website are all in shambles. Ambiguous information. One spends a lot of time downloading various permutation and combination only to be told 'this is not for you'.
It sucks...

Wi-Fi printing

I'm facing the same problem with HP Photosmart 2068. It never worked properly on Wi-Fi since 5 years. Hope you were able to solve the problem. Let me know if you have any tips.

Ciao...
