Wireless PC station won’t Print to a wired Printer

by racoulon . Updated 6 years, 8 months ago

Hello,

First off, i’d like to thank any help in advance. I tried to see if i could find a replicated issue already in the forums, but to no avail.

I am currently running 3 wireless Windows 7 PC’s and trying to setup a wired printer for them to be able to use. I can access this printer via wireless on any of our wireless Windows 10 PC’s but not the Windows 7.

I first tested to see if i could ping the IP of the printer from the PC’s in question, and they all come back successful with 0% loss. I then add the printer manually via IP. Afterwards I select the proper drivers, and it installs successfully. But when I go to print out a test page, or any page that is, the document will stay in the spool and change from “Printing” to “Error”. It doesn’t state the Error and if I troubleshoot, it can’t find any issues.

I’m at a total loss.
