Problem in printing from Officejet 6700 in Mac

Hello all.
I have an HP Officejet 6700 for more than a year. It is connected to a wireless network (Netgesr wireless router), both Mac an Windows PC printing and scanning successfully until yesterday…
Since yesterday the Mac cannot print or scan, while windows machine still works fine …
Mac OS version is 10.9.4
I changes the printer from DHCP to static IP, I deleted the printer from the Mac and installed it again from the HP site but at the HP Utility I get stuck in the Add Officejet 6700 (08B0D2) Bonjour Multifunction with an “Unable to communicate with the printer at this time” error message.
Again all of this while windows machines communicate and work perfectly fine.
Any idea?

Hi @AmitFish 
I see that you can still use the Windows PCs to communicate to the printer, but not the Mac. I suggest using the following document to troubleshoot the issue, as this applies to the Mac operating systems; 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Mac OS X.
Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require further assistance. Thanks.

  • Photoshop suddenly does not print to Epson 3880 - PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop  After restart error message appears:  - "There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopen

    PROBLEM: Cannot print from Photoshop
    After restart error message appears:
    — “There was an error opening your printer. Printing functions will not be available until you have selected a printer and reopened any documents.”
    • All print commands are greyed out and unavailable — even to call up the printer commands cannot be done.
    The printer printed fine until about 2 weeks ago when this error message appeared.  Printing continues from Pages, I-photo, preview etc. —  only Photoshop fails.
    The printer has been turned on and off, as have open documents been closed and open etc..   Preferences reset.  Repeatedly I have read through blogs and forums and attempted to contact Adobe — all without results
    Epson support struggled to find reason and several solutions were tried and they assume this is an Adobe problem.

  • Wireless printing problem in home network officejet 6700

    1.HP Officejet 6700 Premium
    2. not applicable(multiple operating systems. windows 7 and OS Lion)
    3. My printer is connected to my house's wireless network and has accessibility to the internet, but when I try wireless printing from my iphone, ipad or macbook pro the printer "can not be seen". Saying " no air printers available".
    But if i unplug the printer's power and plug it back in, when it just gets connected to the wireless network again I am able to "see" the printer for a brief moment and thus I'm able to print. But a little while later disappears again.
    What can I do?

  • How can I print to Officejet 6700 from Win XP x64 computer?

    Purchased the 6700 and conencted to network and prints from Win 7 laptops fine.
    My desktop workstation in HP Z600 running Win XP X64, but cannot seem to get a driver to suit to print over the network.
    I would prefer not to have to trash and replace the OS on the workstation!
    Is there a work-around or some sort of interface that I could use?
    My home network does have a little HP server, but it runs Win Server 2003, which is also incapable to connecting to the printer.

  • Has anyone had a problem with printing from Elements 9 on a MAC?

    When I first installed Elements 9 and tried to print, all I got were blank pages.  I contacted adobe support and after an hour on the  phone, she referred me to the next level.  I then received an email from them asking me to call them and in the meantime, they suggested things I shoud do.  I did what they suggested and it worked.  I was able to print.  However, I was unable to indicate the type of paper or resolution that I wanted to print in.  So, I called them again.  It seems that on a windows PC, they give you five options for printing:  1.  Select printer, 2.  Select Settings, 3.  Select paper size, 4.  Type of print, and 5.  Select Print size.  On a MAC,  You get only three options:  Select printer, Select paper size and Select print size.  Does anyone know another way to select the settings and type of print.  I have been using Elements 4 for years with no problems.  Elements 4 gives all the  options.  I don't understand why it is not the same in Elements 9.

    Thank you so much.  You have solved my problem.  I never thought to click the down arrow.  In all the time I have been printing, on any program, the entire window opened up when I clicked on the print button.  This one never did.  I don't understand why Adobe support never told me about that when I called them.

  • Having problem with printing from xp to mac shared printer (HP LJ M1005).

    I have 2 printers - HP LaserJet M1005 MFP, HP DeskJet 3845.
    Both are connected via USB to MacPro and shared.
    I have 3 laptops - MacBookPro, IBM ThinkPad T42 (winxp) and HP Compaq nw8000 (winxp).
    All these computers are connected via router.
    I'm able to print from MacBookPro on both printers.
    On IBM and HP I installed Bonjour service and added both printers.
    Printing to HP DeskJet 3845 works fine, but HP LaserJet M1005 MFP doesn't.
    What happens - When I print from IBM or HP, the job shows up in MacPro, but after 1sec status is changed to "Stopped".
    I really don't understand where is problem...
    I tried different drivers - Generic driver, HP LaserJet m1005 driver, some other LaserJet drivers. Nothing works...
    When I connect HP LaserJet M1005 MFP directly to PC and install drivers, it works fine.

    Two possible solutions.

  • WhenI print from firefox on a Mac everything comes out 50% too light, if I save the image and print from the desktop it looks fine. No problem either printing from FF with Win7. How do I fix FF on the Mac?

    My iMac runs bootcamp, so I have both OSX and win7 available. I run the latest Firefox on both as my primary browser. The printing looks like the ink is running low, but when the same image is printed from other desktop apps the printing looks fine.

    Hi, Jordan -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    If the original drive in the newer Mac is a Western Digital, its jumpers may be set to Single, which WD drives often use when there is only one device on the bus. When a second drive is added, the jumpers on the original must be reset to Master.
    OS 9's utility is named Drive Setup - you should find it in the Utilities folder on the hard drive. Run that. Select the added hard drive in the list, then select Mount Volume from the Functions menu.
    You can also check with that utility to see if the OS believes the drive has been set to automount at boot. Again, select the drive in the list. Then select Volume Settings from the Functions menu - there's a checkbox in that screen to set automount (for freshly initialized drives, that's turned on by default).
    Also, try running Disk First Aid (should also be in the Utilities folder). Let it have a look at the second drive, and repair anything it can.
    Apple System Profiler should report the format of all drives it sees. Is the format of the drive from the old Mac stated as Mac OS Standard, or as Mac OS Extended?

  • I had a problem with connection with wireless printer, I had to delete. But I cannot install back. Printer HP officejet 6700

    Please anybody can help me with installation of HP officejet 6700 on MacBook Air.
    It stopped working, I could not find printer to connect, therefore I had to delete but I cannot install back again.

    So the printer is no longer shown in the System Preferences > Print & Scan window?  If you haven't already, you can power the printer off and on, then try to set up the wireless connection again and see if MBA recognizes the printer.
    You'll need to provide us with more info so we can try to help.

  • Apple devices will not print to Officejet 6700 including MacBook Pro and iPad

    I am trying to help someone set up their MacBook Pro and iPad to be able to wirelessly print to their Officejet 6700. I recently set them up with a new Apple Airport Extreme for their router. The printer connects fine to the wireless network. Everything during the install process for the printer goes well, the MacBook easily sees the printer. The correct driver is installed. They also have a Windows 7 laptop that prints instanteously and has no issues whatsoever. 
    When I try to print from the Mac, nothing prints. I open the print queue and it shows "Printing - connected to printer..." and nothing ever comes of it. When trying to print from the iPad, it can see the printer and I select it. However, after telling it to print, the dialogue box just says "Connecting to Printer" and it never does - it just times out. 
    Things I've tried:
    Everything in this article that is related to Macs (10.8). 
    Resetting the printing system on the Mac.
    Resetting the printer to default settings.
    Setting the static IP of the printer through the printer settings.
    Setting the IP of the printer through the Airport Utility (after changing the printer to automatic).
    Rebooting the Mac after each attempt to remove the printer and before adding again. 
    Using the official HP Officejet 6700 driver.
    Using the Airprint driver.
    Other info:
    I can successfully ping the printer's IP address from the MacBook Pro.
    I can easily see the web setup page for the printer both through the printer settings and by entering the IP address. 
    The printer is only about a month old. 
    They bought this printer because the previous one was having problems printing from all of their devices wirelessly. That was with a router from their previous ISP. 
    At this point, I'm completely stumped as to why the printer will not print from these Apple devices. We've dealt with every issue that could be causing it: the network, the printer, and the MacBook itself. I've looked online and can see no issues with people not being able to print to a wirelessly connected printer to an Airport Extreme. I've seen some issues when the printer is plugged in via USB to the Airport Extreme, but that is not our setup. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

  • Problems with prints from RAW files

    I wonder if someone could shed some light on this problem. I uploaded some photos to Kodak through iPhoto, some were JPEG's from my old Canon Powershot and some were RAW files from my new Nikon D40. The images on my monitor from the RAW files from the D40 were great with very vivid colors and I was looking forward to my first prints from the D40. When I received the prints the photos from the old Power shot looked good but the D40 looked terrible. The prints were all washed out and very dull, the strange thing was that there was one photo that was taken with the D40 which was edited and that came out as a good print and seemed to be a JPEG. I guess its something to do with the upload of RAW files, should I be shooting in JPEG ?. I thought that iPhoto uploaded JPEG's
    Thank you in advance

    Printed RAW files will always look unsaturated or "dull" until processed and saved as a jpeg or tiff files. Think of RAW/NEF as a means of preserving ALL the available information to later "develop" a final image to be saved as tiff or jpeg for publication. Shooting in Large Fine JPEG mode will yield great results for print and web publishing, and also leave more room on your memory card and computer drive to make more great photos

  • Printing from PPC G5 to Mac Mini with Epson 2200

    I'm having a terrible time, trying to figure out what went wrong with printing to my Epson 2200, using my brand new Mac mini as a print server, since I set up my new Mac mini this morning. I have an Epson Stylus Color 2200 USB printer attached to the Mini, and I am trying to print out of Photoshop CS3 from my ethernet networked Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5, using the mini as a print server.
    I put the Intel print driver for the Epson on the new mini and all the Epson print options are available and I can print fine from Photoshop on it. But, when I try to print from the G5, I don't have all the print options available for the Epson; specifically the Print Settings and Color Management option boxes from the Print dialog box, that are usually available when printing out of Photoshop to the Epson.
    I bought the mini to replace the old MDD G4 that I'd been using (with no printing problems) for years.
    Something happened to mess up my printing options since changing over to the mini, but I just can't for the life of me figure out what to do! Any suggestions would be very, very appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance.

    In case anyone else is having this same problem, I was given teh solution on the Adobe Photoshop User to User Forum:
    Try installing the latest appropriate version of the driver on both machines, and then manually drag the Library/Printers/Epson folder (the root Library folder, not the one in your Home folder) from the Intel machine to the same place on the PowerPC G5.
    This worked like a charm.

  • How can i choose a lower quality print density when printing from firefox on my Mac. I cant move the slider along the scale ( I can when printing from the computer).

    I can't change the print density when printing from Firefox. It is set at standard and although there is a "slider button" to use for choosing less or more density, it can't be moved. I can tick "grayscale". I can choose the density when printing from the computer. I have a Mac

    I also have this problem where I used to be able to shrink a 2 page doc to a single page. Since upgrade to FF4 it no longer works - but you can choose say 60% and it will work. All used to work fine in FF3

  • Printing from windows 2000 to mac os x

    Hi,
    I have a Printer (HP PSC 1510 allinone) connected and working from a G4 imac running Mac OS 10.4.10. Window sharing and Printer Sharing are both running. I would like to print to this printer from a PC laptop across a wireless network. The PC is running Windows 2000 pro.
    I can log in to the imac and share files, the printer is also displayed. Drivers are installed on both computers and i have added the printer as a "network printer". When i try to print from word on the laptop the document seems to just evaporate in transit.
    Is there a sure way to print from this setup that anyone knows?
    thanks in advance

    its

    windows responds with:
    "Could not connect to the printer. You either entered a printer name that was incorrect or the specified printer is no longer connected to the server. Click Help for further information."
    The address is correct of course.
    I tried this method because Bonjour printer setup throws the ghastly
    "You do not have sufficient access to your computer to connect to the selected printer." every time in Windows 2000 as well despite the fact that i'm logged in as administrator on both machines. I'm wondering if this is a permissions problem but where?
