I have this printer. It's a monumental POS. It's never worked right wirelessly with my Mac. I'm on the verge of tossing it in the dumpster, but I thought I would post here first.

I did the wireless setup assistant. It claims the printer is connected to my router. Its green "wi-fi" light is on. But I don't see it on the router's status page (a D-Link DIR-615).

Plus when I go to System Prefs > Printers > + to add a printer, I don't get a list or printers or anything. How exactly am I supposed to add this thing, assuming it's connected?

Thanks.

Rob


Edit: If I plug in the USB cable, it shows up as connected and available. If I unplug the cable, it says not available.
