This is a desktop computer. The computer itself does not have wireless capabilities. That is controlled by my router. -----Original Message----- From: David Whitehead Sent: Wednesday, January 01, 2014 9:50 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] setting up hp c4700 printer hello there; did you go to, control panel, devices and printer, now tab to add device button, right arrow and enter on add printer button, and try to add printer from their? this should allow you to setup the wireless connection. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Lenny McHugh Sent: Wednesday, January 1, 2014 8:16 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] setting up hp c4700 printer Rick I think part of the problem is that it was previously set up for a macbook. Thinking about it last night I did not get the register the product screen. The wireless connection was made however instead of printing it launched openbook. I wonder if there is any way to put the printer back to total factory default as if it is a new machine. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Justice Sent: Wednesday, January 01, 2014 1:07 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] setting up hp c4700 printer Hi Lenny, Just to make sure I understand,this is a wireless printer? If so, you will need to establish a wireless connection between the printer and your modem or router. If you have the software disk for that printer, run it, and it should make the connection for you. You should be able to access the setup wizard with Jaws, but keep in mind that if this is a wireless connection, if the printer drops the connection for some reason, you will need to run the setup again, or get sighted assistance with the display on the printer. If you choose the correct settings as the wizard prompts you,then you should be able to access the printer from any computer on the network. If your friend doesn't have the disk, then go to the manufacturer's website, and download the software.

A friend gave me her hp c4700 that was used on a mac computer. the computer is wireless. Trying to set it up for wireless to be used on my home network we had a lot of problems. It wanted a mac address and instructed to print a test page to find the number. We could not print. We told the set up just to ignore and continue. Now when we tried to print it did not print but launched openbook. I then again inserted the usb cable and it did link the computer to the printer but other computers on the network can not access the printer. At least we were able to print the information that he needed. Really would like it to be wireless. Any suggestions? Happy New Year to all, I sure hope that 2014 is kinder than 2013 is ending :-) --- Please visit my web page It’s motivational, inspirational with a touch of humor There is also a very extensive resource list for the blind http://www.LennyMcHugh.com International Brotherhood of Magicians member #43990R For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
