When I am online I cannot print.  Sometimes it says server cannot be found.  Sometimes if I fiddle around with it it will print a couple of pages but then goes back to not printing at all.  I have no problem with being online but it just wont print whatever I type.  This is a brand new printer I bought 1-21-15.  Help!

Hello @SunnyHobbs ,

 

Welcome to the HP forum.

 

I understand that you are having issues printing when you are online. I would like to help.

 

If you are printing over your local network, you should not be getting any server errors.

The only time a server would be involved is if you are ePrinting.

 

If I could please have a little more detail.

What browser you are using when online?

Are you using a VPN (virtual private network)?

Are you using the 4630 drivers to print, or the ePrint software?
