All-in-one 6830 printer Does not enter sleep mode when connected to a phone line

HP staff  help. HP all-in-one printer 6830 does not enter sleep mode when conntected to a phone line via 1-Line jack.  The Firmware is PNP1CN1521AR. On August 1, 2015,  I purchased an HP all-in-one 6830  printer and upgraded to firmware PNP1CN1521AR.When a phone line is connected to 1-Line jack of 6830, the printer will no longer enter  sleep mode and the display remains on indefinitly.Removing the phone connection either from the wall outlet or from the printer causes the sleep mode to work correctly again where the control panel display turns off after 5 minutes (or optionally  after 10 or 15 minutes).This problem was previously reported by a user and has not been resolved, see:http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Printing-Questions/Sleep-mode-of-Officejet-Pro-6830/td-p/4772182 The user did not receive a resolution to this problem according to the thread.
There seems to be a  6830 printer firmware or hardware problem causing this. HP  should be able to confirm this problem on 6830 easily.
Please advise ASAP.
Thanks 

It's a regular analog phone line. I've tested it with other phone lines. No difference. I have another all-in-one printer which works fine (goes to sleep mode) when plugged into the same phone line.
The 6830 works ok in other aspects. The only problem is the sleep mode. Any 6830 with the firmware I mentioned should replicate the same result, regardless of anything else. The previous firmware to PNP1CN1521AR also created this problem according to the original report of this problem by another user.
I'm sure there's a bug in the firmware. A subroutine in the firmware monitoring the incoming fax ringing, mistakenly, sees the voltage across the phone jack pins as an event and wakes up the printer instantly even though there's no ringing. As the previous user also suspected, there seems to be an error in the phone line voltage threshold used by the firmware. The present firmware always sees a ringing at the phone line which causes it to never stay in sleep mode.

  • Lenovo thinkpad 8 not entering sleep mode when lid closed

    RECENTLY I BOUGHT THINKPAD 8. I HAVE A PROBLEM. IT CAN'T ENTER SLEEP MODE. I CLOSE THE LID AND THE SCREEN IS ON. AT POWER OPTION IT IS SELECTED WHEN I CLOSE THE LID TO GO TO SLEEP , ON BATTERY AND WHEN PLUGED IN. THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

    I am not certain what you mean.  Are you saying that when you close the cover it does not sleep?  Are you certain you have a cover with the magnets that will put it to sleep?

  • Macbook Pro does not enter sleep mode anymore

    Hey guys!
    I have found several threads relating to this topic, none of them offering a solution, which worked for me.
    I recently updated from Tiger to Leopard (clean install), since then my computer won´t go to sleep automatically. I can put it to sleep manually or close the lid, it will sleep and wake up without any problems.
    However, it will not go into *sleep mode automatically* when inactive. The display will sleep, with the sleep light constantly on and not pulsing, fans keep going.
    What i have tried so far:
    - closing all applications
    - disable all network sharing
    - SMC reset
    - PRAM reset
    None of those did work out for me.
    I really do hope someone can help me out here, as i don´t want my computer to burn calories 24/7.
    Thanks in advance

    how do i check for those processes? there are a lot of processes running, what are haxies?
    You would set the time to sleep to a short time and simply watch the top processes to see if a new one pops up.
    Haxies are tools that modify the OS directly. TinkerTools is one of them. They are safe to use, but sometimes problematic.
    i checked for the login items:
    iCalAlarmScheduler and EyeTV Helper are activated.
    Aha!
    I would remove both of them, but I think the EyeTV Helper is the problem.
    Some have reported the EyeTV Helper being a problem in waking the computer up at odd hours, but it might also affect sleep. You remove them with the little ( - ) sign at the bottom, not the "hide" checkbox with does nothing important.

  • Memory problems, system hangs or does not enter 'sleep' mode

    Since my MacBook automatically upgraded itself (Software Update) to 10.5.7 about a month ago I've had nothing but problems with it.
    I keep getting 'low memory' warnings, or the 'please wait' twirling symbol displays for ages whilst something happens in the background, or the system occasionally hangs for no apparent reason. Sometimes it reboots without warning.
    But the most irritating aspect of the problems I'm experiencing is that when I put it into Sleep mode and subsequently want to wake it up, I notice that the cooling fan is in overdrive (so clearly not asleep at all) and then upon opening the cover I get a blank screen (nothing 'wakes up'). Or so it appears. But actually upon closer inspection I can see my last used screen display in very faint outline somewhere in the darkness of the screen. The only way out of this scenario is to hold the on/off button until the machine shuts down, wait a few moments and then boot from scratch.
    From reading other comments in this forum there seem to be some real problems with 10.5.7, so I suspect I'm not alone in experiencing the problems I've described above.
    I'd be interested to know whether people think I should take my MacBook to my local Apple Store to get them to have a look at a fix of some kind, or perhaps there is something I could be doing myself?

    Hi,

    For the record, no computer can just update it's system software on it's own. When Apple has updates available you must type in your admin password at the prompt in order to "Accept" the terms. The software cannot be installed without your knowledge.
    Next... anytime you do software updates of any kind, run Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) and repair disk permissions. Launch Disk Utility. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
    Try booting from your install disk and verify whether or not the hard disk has errors.
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    If you cannot boot from your install disk, try booting in Safe Mode
    Check available disk space.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see
    Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • TS3716 My relatively new ipod touch 16 gb either does not show up as a drive or everytime says it does not recognize my ipod when connected to add music.  I didn't have problems loading music originally, but this is a new occurrence.  Could you help?

    My relatively new ipod touch 16 gb either does not show up as a drive or everytime says it does not recognize my ipod when connected to add music.  I didn't have problems loading music originally, but this is a new occurrence.  Could you help?

    Hey, Thanks a lot.  It took quite a bit of time to resurrect this ipod.  I tried the upgrade again, but still would not recognize my ipod. So I went to the next step and reset my ipod, wiping of all of the information like it was new.  This helped my laptop see the ipod on itunes, but did not sync. So, I deleted the itunes off my computer completely, restarted and then reinstalled the newest itunes, and then restarted.  Finally, it recognized my ipod and started to download each song.  It took awhile as there was 602 songs, but finally it works.  Yea!!!  I never had any problem with my old nano, but this touch has been another animal for sure. Thank you again and also the community for information.  This was a helpful forum and will recommend to others if they get stuck with their ipod or iphone.  Take care, Karen

  • My macbook pro 2.0 early 2011 will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

    Alo, my Macbook pro i7 2 GHz Intel Core i7 (early 2011) will not go to sleep with the power source connected. only enters sleep mode when running on battery. Someone did this happen, and it could solve?

    There is no output from that command line?   Maybe the pid changed.
    I'll repeat what I am trying to find out...
    1. You do a pmset -g on the terminal.
    2. The output from that pmset should have a line that says "sleep 0 (imposed by n)" where n is some number.
    3. The ps ax | grep n is supposed to display what the process associated with n is.
    It's the output from step 3 that should indicate what is causing you not to sleep.
    But speaking of sleep, that's where I am going.

  • Trying to connect HP officejet all-in-one! assitant does not support router??

    I am trying to connect HPOfficejet 7410 All-in-One which is wirless enabled to my wireless netowork. Getting message," HP NETWORK ASSISTANT does not currently support the router that is connected to your system."  Does this mean that I cannot setup this printer with the router I have?  Or is there another way I can connect it without using the Network assistant?  The router I have is a Linksys Router Model # WRT110 . I have tried to find another router that was in the list of "supported routers" with no luck.  I have looked everywhere.  Please if someone could help! Let me know if you need more info to answer my question. Thanks!

    Actually, its not that the youre router is not ocompatible with the HP Network Assistant. Maybe yuore router has a very secure network security thats why the wireless assistant could not connect the printer to youre router
    - The other way to connect the printer to your wireless network is to run the wireless setup wizard on the printer.
    - Step 1. Press the set up button on the printer and press the right arrow then navigate & look for netwok menu then press ok.
    - Step 2. press the right arrow and look for wireless setup wizard
    - it will look for youre wireless router and try to select your router the enter the security key(WEP or WPA) if you have one.
    - after that it will prompt you that the printer is connected to your network

  • OS X 10.6.7 Canon All-in-One 480 Printer will not print files, only blank pages. Have to go to Utilities, Disk Utility  and Repair permissions for a temporary fix. How can I get a permanent fix?

    After upgrading to OS X 10.6.7., my Canon All-in One MP 480 printer will not print. it says it is printing, but the sheet of paper just runs through the printer and comes out blank. I finally went online to just answers.com and got a fix involving the System preferences, printer and fax. i was told to go to Applications in the HD, thenUtilities, then Disk Utilities, highlight the HD and check on Verify Disk. If it says Disk is OK, click on Repair Permissions. At first, that worked, but the next time I went to print after turning the printer off, it refused to print and just ran the sheet of paper through blank. Once that happens, there is no way to go back to printing the file that failed. I fiinally had to copy and paste the info from the file that would not print and put it in an email to myself and then print that. This is very frustrating, and I would really like a final solution for the problem.

    There's a lot there, so I'll start with the parts I can answer quickly.
    The "ACL found but not expected..." messages can be safely ignored, so says this article
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
    (look below all the "SUID" examples)
    I had changed my Desktop image earlier but when the "Installing 1 item" window came up it changed back to the back ground that you first see on your desktop after installation.
    Leopard installs updates a bit differently. If it's simply an application that does not change system files, it installs them like before, without having to restart. If the update is to the system, then you must immediately "restart," It then goes to that stars and purple screen to perform the installation. Before, it would do the installation while you still had control of the Mac and would prompt you to restart when it finished the installation. This change probably make things more secure and reliable, because you aren't allowed to do other things on the Mac while system updates are being installed.
    Please post back with the remaining point of concern.

  • Photosmart 2610 all-in-one Scan preview does not display

    Recovering from a hard-disk crash, I've just reinstalled my Photosmart 2610 all-in-one using the driver and software package for Windows XP : rub_W01_Americas_Euro1_NB.exe. downloaded from the HP support site. All seems to be running well, except for a glitch when I try to scan: the document Preview does not display.  I have made certain that the Preview checkbox is duly selected, but nothing seems to help. It is the same whether I'm scanning a picture or a document. It also makes no difference whether I launch the scan from HP Director or from within another application.
    Note that if I click Accept, the document (or picture) will indeed be scanned and saved. But I won't see it until I open it with some other application.
    Thoughts, anybody?
    Thanks!
    James

    Hello James, welcome to the forums
    I understand you are unable to see your scanned preview with your Photosmart 2610. I would suggest the guide below to use for troubleshooting steps for this issue.
    Scanning Stops at the Preview Screen when the Printer is Connected to the Computer with a USB Cable ...
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions: click here.

    All of a sudden i cannot copy any document with my 3210 All In One.  I keep getting the message shown above on the screen.

    Hi @nunzio317 
    I would like to help you with your Photosmart 3210. I understand that when you copy you see a message on the printer that says "Paper detected does not match paper size or type selected". Does this also happen when you print from the computer, or only when you copy? Have you tried copying a different size paper, and what size paper are you currently using?
    Are you able to print a self test report? If you are unsure, please try, and let me know;
    Load plain white paper into the tray.
    Press the Setup button.
    Press 1 to display the Print Report menu.
    Press 1 again to select Self-Test Report. The self-test report prints.
    - Source
    If this also happens when you print from the computer, please use the following document as it can help you to resolve the issue; 'Paper Mismatch,' or 'Paper Size Mismatch' Error Message Displays When Printing.
    I hope this helps.
