Officejet Pro L7780 Wired and wireless networking at same time

‎05-06-2012 11:32 AM

I have an officejet pro L7780 printer that I would like to use wired and wireless networking at the same time.  It that possible.  The printer is connected directly to the network by ethernet, but I would like to print wirelessly with an ipad or iphone using HP ePrint Home and Biz.

 

Thanks,

 

Maurice Hawley

The bad news: no it is not possible to have two connections active on your printer at once.

 

The good news: the router will connect any device to the printer regardless of how the printer or the devices are connected.  So your iPad can print to a printer that is wired (with Ethernet) to your router.

 

If it does not work, restart your router by pulling its power plug momentarily.
