Just looked at this to realise I almost got it all right, but missed the last step "Additional port info..". Now it works! Thanks!
Cheaper than buying a wifi printer.
wanujio Great! I'm glad this video was helpful for you :-) Thanks for letting me know!
Cool video! Well thought out and taught to completion.
The best part was when you pulled the USB cable... "Now it's it wireless!"
You cracked me up! Thanks.
Thanks so much for the comment! I'm really happy you liked this video :-) That's awesome! thanks again :-)
@@Behfor Plus one on the original post. I could see it coming, but it's still funny. Nice to see you have a great sense of humor! Great job, and very informative. Just what I needed to know to get my printer working with all of my computers on my home network. Swapping cables all the time is a pain, I can't find my wireless print server dongle, and just happen to have a nice Linksys wireless router I'm not using just now. I guess I'll pick a tomato this weekend, and see how it goes. Thanks again!
@@sammcrae8892 Thanks so much Sam!! I'm very glad you liked this video too :-) I guess you decided to go with Plan C then! Smart choice!! Thanks again and good luck :-)
Same here!
Love your comedy! Thanks for these great instructions!c
Thanks for your video. Is this setup also enable your scanner function through the wifi router?? Or is only for the printer function of your equipment? Thanks
My friend you resolved a big problem that i have. Thank you!!!
Hi, I'm very happy this video was useful for you! Thanks :-)
Brilliant!
Made it entertaining and easy.
You are a freaking life saver !! Ty so much ..i have an almond router hopefully it works for tomatoes !!
Loved all your videos... many Thanks!!!!!
II'm glad you liked the videos! Thanks :)
This is man is excellent
I am configure very good.
Damn this dude can deliver a punchline. Hit the comedy clubs man. Just do print classes there. Bam! Instant originality. Might be a slightly niche market.
Can you turn a wireless router into a wireless print server? Like have your main router running and use a spare router to just act as a printer server and nothing else. I have an old wireless N router that has tomato on it already, and it has a usb port. Could I switch it from a router to a wireless access point like we used to do as a wireless bridge and share it as a network printer?
Hi There, This seemed to be the solution I wanted for a long time. I'm using a Linksys E2500v3 and the firmware change to Tomato work quite easily and it does show the printer connected (Canon MP550). However when I add the printer it won't print a test page or any page whatsowever. Any ideas?
Hi there. Very informative!!! Thank you. I have two questions:
1) I intent to turn off DHCP, assign an IP address to the E1550, plug in the Ethernet cable to a port OTHER THAN WAN/LAN port to use it as a wired/wireless extender and a wireless print server. QUESTION - will Tomato Router firmware allow to turn off DHCP and assign an IP address to E1550?
2) Assuming the answer to the first question is yes - If I connect a USB HUB to the E1550 - can I connect two (more than one) USB printers to the USB HUB? Will there be a conflict with assigned port names for printers?
Many thanks.
Can we use the router as a standalone wifi receiver? That way the printer doesnt need to be right by the side of actual router
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome!
what if I want to printer from another laptop, is it necessary to install the same drivers on the another laptop too. How about as network printer WiFi router store the driver in itself?
Hello Behfor, this is driving me crazy, i can't do this cos my router is not listed in the tomato shibby. I use a spectrum router. Please help
Would this work if you connect it directly to your main internet WiFi router?
Hi again! Can the same steps be done on ddwrt?
do you have this router as repeater,i said that because i see no internet in your windows 10 machine
Can you please share me the exact configuration for macOS. This is working perfectly fine for windows but no luck for macOS. Thanks in advance 👍.
Great ! how will i print it from another device connected to the same network
Will it be complicated to configure the printer to a mobile phone?
I have tenda 4G300. What are the options I can have to change firmware?
Thanks for sharing. I only print monochrome . Now i have found my problem is driver. I tried many driver hp 1115 and i can print colour. Thanks alot.
On android phone i use printhand app for wireless
You're very welcome! Thanks for letting me know :-)
Hi sir, thank you for very informative video. But how can i do this with MAC OS? Thank you
Can it do in hp printer series p1102 ? Thanks
Can we use this technique to print from mobile?
Can i print from my andriod phone using your plan C ?
Thanks so much! It was very helpful, and, by coincidence, I had the exact printer you did!
thanks saved my day....
You're very welcome, glad it helped 👍
Hi there, plan c is good whenever we have old extra router!! Otherwise printer server is a good option, by the way thnx for informative tutorial video. Thnx
Yes, you are right! How about plan A though ;-) just kidding
Thanks Behfor, you're a godsent
You're very welcome! Glad it was useful for you 👍
@@Behfor do you know how to do this on Mac? I failed to replicate this on mac
i follow up your installation steps but my printer unable to resave to print command its tell me error when trying to print test page i make sure the driver installed correctly and the printer is shown in the router can u tell me where the problem is if u can please
Sir,
What if their is no usb port in router any alternative as i don't have in D-Link
Can I use a usb to lan adapter as an alternative if my router doesnt have any usb port?
Only if the adapter is also a print server
Super tips,
No one ever covers the parts about 1)If you don't have a usb port on your modem and 2) your modem is perched in a location inconveniently distant from your printer, you need to add a router to your already existing wifi system. Nice small travel routers are good if you need to buy a new one with usb port that will handle a printer.
I agree. Have 4-5 routers laying around and would be nice if I could place one by the printer and have it connect to main router of the house just to work as printer server.
can this also be done with a scanner?
Very good video thanks...After 2 days wrestling with my DIR 860L firmware (not available in Tomato but available in DD WRT) I finally have the router running, set it up in Windows 10 but printer print test fails all the time 😡 (Epson Artisan 1400) i will keep experimenting and see if there is a solution to the problem.
Thanks for the info! Good Luck :-)
wow | nice | budget friendly guy
Sir my router doesnot have print server option neither it is on tomato. Hw can I upgrade its firmware and use it. Pls reply
Thanks its working. Saved my Money
Glad to hear that, thanks.
Excellent, Thanks.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching :-)
can i do this on my canon selphy cp800?
Dude u r so great.... I have suscess follow your move. Thanks anyway
Great! I'm glad it was useful for you!! Thanks for letting me know :-)
Can you make another video but using android phone. Right now im trying to do that with any app.
I think this probably what you are looking for th-cam.com/video/53Qkw-9OHIQ/w-d-xo.html
Behfor no, is not what i want. My point is, i want to print from my android with wireless, but using a HP DJ1102. I expect can print from seperate network.
Dude, i have finally understand what you mean. And its work. Thanks again
After doing all this set up, can i print from android phone connected to same network. Can anyone help me out.
After doing this can we print from our phone
Thanks
Great video editing. Didn't waste time with unnecessary talk. My Netgear R7000 is a wonderful piece of equipment. Since I think October the firmware from Netgear has been very unstable. Still bad. They forced me to Tomato firmware. Printer works great for windows but still can't get it to work with Linux. HELP.
How to install the Tomato firmware on Router?
You save me a lot of time and money, you are the best! :-)
Thanks a lot!
You are the Best!
That's really good news! I'm really happy I could be helpful :-)
Many thanks and have a great day!
Mine is an hp printer and after doing all the above things my printer still doesn't print connected to a huawei router
The problem is that tomato firmware supports only select routers with only 3 D-Link models.
so you use 2 wireless routers ...one for the internet and one for your printer ?
You can if you want but you don't have to! The same router which is configured for the USB printer can also provide Internet!
My router has no USB port so is it possible to make it wireless.....?
my printer is working fine on windows 7 laptops, but on windows 10 it is creating problems, can you help.
What about scanning via local network? Can you use it too?
Unfortunately this method only shares the printer, not the scanner. I think sharing the scanner requires to install Optware sane-backend. It's something I haven't tried though, so I can't confirm. Sorry!

This is the exact same printer that I have
My router doesn’t have usb port what to do to make my printer wireless?
Plan A and B had me laughing so hard 😂
😉😁👍
I have without USB router. Is working if I convert USB to RJ45 and then connect to router I have Tp Link router
It should work, as long as the USB to Ethernet converter is actually a print server.
i don't have a CD and i can't find my device in drivers
How would you access the printer with a phone over WiFi?
The best way to print from you phone would be to have a Google Cloud ready printer ( for android phones) or Apple AirPrint ready (for IPhones), unfortunately this printer is neither of those. The workaround would be to connect the printer via a USB cable to a computer and then install either Google cloud print or Apple AirPrint (through some third party apps) on that computer, then you should be able to print from your phone. This video shows how to set it up for google cloud print: th-cam.com/video/53Qkw-9OHIQ/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps
You can use printhand app on android phone. Choose nearby wireless and you should choose manual setup. Printer you should plug-in to usb port on router (you must turn on usb print server on router)
@@anhtai9999 you must select printer/print share from the menu found in the router's settings page where you can configure your router's settings such as update your SSID name or change password! Thanks for sharing that information that's exactly what I did! Not trying to step on your toes I'm just trying to help others by making it a little more clear.
will only router do? or modem capabilities are required too?
The router should be enough! The modem is only for the Internet and the wireless router is responsible for the wireless and wired local network as well as connecting your local devices to each other (in this case sharing the printer). Thanks!
@@Behfor sweeeeet! So awesome, been looking for solution 4 sooooo long! What a big help you are! Thanks soooo much
My Ricoh SP 210SU is showing Error after giving print order
I plugged my USB cable.into the printer then the other side into a tomato 🍅, but it just got covered in juice ,what am I doing wrong
Can I print from ipad ?
The USB cable from the printer has to always be connected to the router?
Yes
How to print from android or iphone while using plan C on your printer
My printer has scanner in it. Can I scan through that router? Any app on android, so I can print from my smartphone?
ptintershare but you have to purchase it. but it really worth it
what about windows xp??? It is not working although the router sees the connected printer
do i need links router or any router and do the router have to connect to the mordern
Any router as long as you can install tomato and has a USB port should be ok. The router would be connected to the modem for internet access, if you do not need internet access then you don't have to connect it to the modem
hello thank you for the respond I have spectrum so it came whit a router alreadyy ao whatt can I do
my wifi router does not have usb port. what should i do. i dont want to invest in a new wifi router, but i want to print wireless
Should the Windows PC be on all the time?
No, not with the solution in this video! I used the PC to configure the router and also send a print job to the printer.
hello,
I loved the video but I could not print from my phone.
Useful and funny :)
Do the 2 print servers that you hold briefly in front of the screen actually work to convert the Canon to wireless?
THX.
You're very welcome :-)
What is the cable called for it
As long as the router you're using has a USB port and can run tomato then all you should need is a long USB printer cable. or if you can put the router close to your printer you could probably use your regular printer cable.
all went fine, then i test printed it, nothing happened, turns out i cant print. Brother TCP-310. any suggestions ?
The model of the printer is not actually as important as making sure you followed all these steps. It should work with many or even all USB printers
how to do it for android phones
i have connected it to my laptop but how to do the same with my phone now?
Use Google Cloud Print for your Android phone.
Hey my printer is work but the printer cannot function print on the paper.....Help me guys.....
it doesnt work on my epson l1300 :c
so if my router does not have usb plug in, it can not work ?
Unfortunately not!
It works
Great!
very good great job
Thanks, glad you liked it :-)
man i watch all of your videos and help me a lot so i have a question, can this work on my ddwrt repeater ,is that possible not in my main adsl2 modem/router,but in my ddwrt wireless repeater bridge
Can you connect this printer to internet.
Can you please elaborate what it is that you want to do? Are you trying to reach the printer from outside?
Behfor I wanted to connect to this printer over internet from a different location. So I can use Google cloud printer app to print from any location. I needn't be connected to the same network of printer. Can I do that?
To enable Google Cloud Print, you need to connect the printer directly to a computer and then enable Google Cloud Print on that computer. Check out this video that explains this feature: th-cam.com/video/53Qkw-9OHIQ/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps
Behfor , thank you so much. It was really helpful
You're very welcome! :-)
