Product: HP deskjet 6940
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
My printer works fine via a wall plug. The printer has a fixed IP adress on the router.
I want to print wireless via a range extender (TP-Link TL-WA855RE). When connencted via a cable to the range extender on the printer's display it shows it is connected to the network. When trying to print however a message "Printer offline" appears.
TP-Link suggests as cause that this printer only can be coupled to one MAC-adres and so there is no solution for this problem.
Is there a solution to get the printer working via the range extender?
