Assalamu'alaikum,
Hello Bapak/Ibu,
Saya hari ini senang sekali, karena berhasil membuat printer saya yang biasanya harus konek ke laptop dengan kabel, menjadi printer yang wireless. Hehehe.. saya tau, Bapak/Ibu, pasti bertanya. kok jadi pakar IT sekarang ? ya, saya anggap itu menjadi bagian hidup di Saudi Arabia. You have to be all.. :)
In my case, i use print server in order to turn my wired printer into wireless. I bought a cheap print server from ebay. It costed me USD 20 (including shipment). By the way, i use zain 4G router (huawei Model B315s-22).
Okay, this is what you need to do;
After dwelling around internet, i found this link that really helps. There is suggestion to connect the print server by assigning static IP address to the print server. This is what should you do;

Okay, this is what you need to do;
- Connect printer to printer server by using USB to USB b-type (included in the package), then by using Ethernet cable, connect print server to router. Power up all.
- Install software launch network printer wizard (included in the CD package). Then by using the wizard, find your printer. In my case, it is HP LaserJet CP1025.
- I was able to print flawlessly. But then, the problem arose. The connection is unstable. It keep losses connection. :(
After dwelling around internet, i found this link that really helps. There is suggestion to connect the print server by assigning static IP address to the print server. This is what should you do;
- Connect directly print server to your laptop by using ethernet cable.
- Open your internet browser, then type: 169.254.10.10 to open Network Print Server management web page.
- On Network Print Server management web page, click Network, then change DHCP setting from Enable to Disable, in order to change the IP address of print server to fixed.
- Assign an IP address to your print server. In my case, Zain 4G router (Huawei B31s-22) ranging from 192.168.1.100 to 200. Just chose one of them.
- Click Submit. This will restart your print server.
- Connect your print server to printer, then print server to router.
- Run the add printer wizard on windows. Chose connect to local printer, TCP/IP Port. You can find details in this link.
- Then, you should be able to connect to your printer.
