Finding mac address on hp 6968 printer mac#
Make sure the printer and the MAC are connected to the same wireless network.Hi to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you. Not sure why HP makes the process so complicated.ĮDIT: my iPhone stopped connecting with the printer on the same day. I'm 30 minutes away from chucking this printer in the bin. I do NOT want to connect via ethernet or USB. When I go to the printers and scanners section in system preferences, and press +, no list of printers comes up because I delete the hp folder. Wifi router is very close by and printer connects fine, the printer goes as far to say that the signal is "Excellent".

Printer is on my desk, right next to my laptop. I read at least 40 topics on wireless connectivity on these forums and nothing worked. I had issues when I first got the printer and after a month or so it finally worked and worked pretty good for 4-5 months.
Finding mac address on hp 6968 printer driver#
I went to the Library Printer folder and deleted the hp one and now when I go back to the Driver section on HP.com it doesn't give me the driver, instead it says Easy Start is the only tool I need. This also stopped the same day and worked flawlessly prior. Even when sending documents to the email address associated with my printer, it doesn't print them. It suddenly stopped connecting and that was it. Unplugged the printer for 10 minutes and reconnected.Įrased to factory setting and started again. If I reset the printer and then run Easy Start, it does the connection sync and then same thing, it fails when gathering device information. On the next screen it never gathers the device info. On the Connect page of Easy Start, it finds the printer if I'm on 5G. It connects to the wifi without an issue and then things go south. My printer stopped working on December 2nd and after investing 10+ hours I am yet to find a solution.
