Now, other devices seem to be able to connect, but the printer is left behind. Again, we had no issues with the printer until we set up the new modem.
#HOW TO HOOK A HP PHOTOSMART 8250 PRINTER WIRELESS WINDOWS 7#
Both of our computers run on Windows 7 (64-bit). Finally, I disabled the WPA/WPA2 security entirely, but the printer was still unable to connect. Also, I briefly took down the modem's firewall to see if that would help the printer connect to the network.

I've tried resetting the printer to factory default settings, too, but that hasn't gotten me anywhere. But even after resetting the network settings, I cannot connect using the WPA password. I thought if I restored the printer's network settings to default that it might resolve the issue. Our modem's security is currently set to WPA and WPA2. I had it set up on my old router-I'm not sure if that makes a difference-but regardless, it's not in effect now. The problem is that I do not have MAC address filtering enabled on the new wireless modem. Press OK to print report." When I print out the results, it tells me that MAC address filtering may be preventing my printer from connecting.

Now, when I run the Wireless Setup Wizard, it finds the network, but no matter how many times I enter the WPA password, it gives me the same error message: "Cannot connect to network. The model in question is an HP Photosmart Premium C410 and it used to work flawlessly on our old network. So, we set up the network around this new modem, and so far, we've had no trouble connecting any devices (e.g., computers, cell phones) except for the printer. Because the new modem supports wireless connectivity, we had no use for the old router (to which our printer was originally connected). Our ISP recently upgraded us to a wireless D-Link DSL-2750B modem.
