HP 3310 All in One printer

I am having a problem connecting this printer wirelessly. I have ensured that the printer is connected to my ad-hoc network created by my iMac, but I can't seem to add the printer. I can't see it in the drop down menu in Safari, under Bonjour. I can connect via USB no problem. I have also used the add printer utility, but that can't add the printer either. I have also tried adding the printer manually by typing in the mac address, but that doesn't work either. I have spoken with Apple Support and they didn't know why I couldn't add the printer wirelessly either. Can anyone help me? Thanks JT41

iMac Intel with built in eye sight., Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hi there, I have the same printer and have had a similar problem.
It is connected to my Airport Extreme base station, and then wirelessly to my G5 Tower.
If I turn my printer off and then back on again, my computer can no longer see it.
To fix this, I have to unplug the base station. When I reconnect it to power and it goes through it's startup cycle, my computer can then see the printer.

Have you tried unplugging the base station?
