Hpc4599 was working ive changed wirelss modem now printer dose not seem to recognize new wireless system

you will need to log into the router configuration with a computer or device that is connected to the router.
in your browser, browse to either 192.168.1.254 or 192.168.200.1, whichever works, and go to the wireless configuration from the screen that loads. from there you can navigate to the custom password or customer wifi key entry spot.

That's strange as the wireless printer communicates with the router, not the modem. Did you change routers, or bypass the router when you hooked up the new modem?

Usually, you use the panel on the printer, Settings, tochange the wifi device to use, and enter a password when prompted. With newer routers and printers, there's a WPS button that allows the new device to be added without needing to know a password.

Just a few ideas you might try to get it working again..

Check the IP Address of the 2833. I believe there is a gray button you can depress to print out a configuration sheet. If the wireless modem was also your router, you may have a different IP address range and will need to set the 2833 accordingly.

What make & model is your wirelss modem? What Operating System are you using (XP? Vista? Windows 7, MacOS, Other)? Did you install the driver that comes with it?

Power down router and modem.
Wait for 30sec.
Power up modem wait about 5 min.
if modem is powered then power router.
wait for 2 min.
than power up computers.
if not yet Internet choose repair connection.

Hi
if the wire less light is not turning on in the modem then there are no wire less devices on. pls check the wireless adapter in your computer and try uninstalling and reinstalling the NIC.
hope it hellps

If yes then you can open the router set up page on
that computer.
Router set up page is the page where you can check
all the wireless settings of the router.
IS your printer wireless or it is connected to the computer.

C4480 is not a wireless printer per-say.
what they mean is that if have a wirelss router you can connected it to the router and printer from any wirelss connection.
you do need a wireless source. this printer don't have one.
