I've just bought a new HP7160 printer, and connected it to my home
network by plugging into the Air****t Extreme base station.
Everything works just fine; all networked Macs can see and print to it.
But -
Although I installed the HP software on the 'base' Mac (the one
directly connected to the Air****t base station) I can't get that HP
software to recognise a printer is connected. The setup routine stalls
at the first step!
Bafflingly, In the HP's 'Photosmart Studio', the printer shows up under
'devices'; and, under 'Device manager', it also shows up (under its
generic name) - but in the "HP Setup Assistant' - zilch!
Surely I can't be the only person to connect via USB and Air****t?
How can I get the Setup Assistant to recognise my new printer?
Help!
