My osx5.8 cannot find my HP 8180

‎07-01-2010 05:27 PM

I used to be able to scan onto my computer.  No more so.  I get messages that the HP 8180 cannot be found.  I have turned off everything for a while.  Then turned on the router, then the 8180 then the Mac.  No luck.  I have tried an ethernet connection instead of a USB connection.  No luck.  I still cannot locate the all in one on either my Mac or my Dell.  Any ideas?

Let's reset the printing system:

- Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
- Right (control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
- Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
