Blocked wireless printer

Jump to solution

I recently loaded McAfee on my iMac  and I can no longer print to my wireless printer. Apple laptop and iPad can continue to print, but iMac cannot. When I attempt to resolve problem by using the various solutions on your discussion pages, all options are disabled. I cannot choose Home option from Public in Firewall tab on McAfee Total Protection Preferences. I would appreciate concrete guidance to resolve this problem.

iMac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6)

Moved from Consumer > Mac Products > for better assistance.

Hopefully someone with more knowledge/Experience will pick up this thread and add to the discussion.

I will ping a Colleague/Moderator whom is more knowledgeable in regards to Mac Products.

Just stabbing in the Dark here, but have you tried toggling 'NetGuard'off/or restoring your Firewall to (Default) settings?

​   Richard could you kindly assist this User Please?

During the interim you can Call or use Online Chat 24/7 free of charge.

For some unknown reason, the Technical Support page is displayed in Portugese. Kindly change (Country) to 'United States' or your particular preference. I will investigate this during the meantime.

I am not familiar with NetGuard nor do I know how to restore Firewall to default settings as that option is disabled in McAfee Total Protection Preferences.

Also where do I change country to United States?
