Problem with Laser Jet 1018

Hello! I have a problem and need help.
I have LaserJet 1018 and i've just updated my windows 8 to windows 8.1 (32-bit). There are no drivers for my printer on the HP site for windows 8.1 and i've tried drivers for windows 8 and though printer appears in devices on computer, it's unable to print. I don't recieve any error mesages it's just don't print!
So, my question is: how to get my LaserJet 1018 work? And will you make drivers for this printer work on windows 8.1?(sorry for my english i'm not a native speaker)

Hi.
I had same problem.
I figured out this problem for a days and then I found it.
1. Just in case, you should download a driver file from this link :http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4132&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=1814...
2. Remove the printer(1018) in Devices and Printer on your computer.
3. Eject your printer USB.
4. Plug the printer USB in your computer.
You might be shown installing the printer and you can see printing when you try test-print.
If you have same problem, try to install the driver file at first and then try again from 2 to 4.
I hope you can understand my message because I'm a international student. Thanks.

HP Laser Jet 1018 that will not print.

I have a HP Laser Jet 1018 printer that stopped printing. Message references spooling and no printer connected.

Hi @ken60487,
I see that you are having issues printing. You are getting a spool and a not connected error. I can help you out today.
What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
The Print Spooler is part of the Operating System, if it isn't running you will not be able to install a printer, see the printer.
Run all the Windows updates on the computer.
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
Clear the Printer Spooler Files and try to Enable the Spooler Service.
1. Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box, type Services.msc .
2. Double-click Printer Spooler in the Services list.
3. Click on the Stop button and click OK. (yours is probably already stopped)
4. Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box, type"%WINDIR%\system32\spool\printers, then delete all files in this folder.
5. Go back to services by holding down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box, type Services.msc again.
6. Double-click Printer Spooler in the Services list.
7. Click on the Start button. In the Start up Type list, make sure that Automatic is selected and click OK.
Try printing again.
If the issue persists, try the following steps:
Try running the Microsoft Fix It Tool to see if it will fix the print spooler.
Diagnose and repair Windows File and Folder Problems automatically.
You can also try running the How To Use SFC /Scannow to Repair Protected Windows Operating System Files.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Unwanted noise when printing in laser jet 1018

I've been using laser jet 1018 for many years and all of a sudden it starts screech when printing. What can I do to stop this?
If there is nothing to do but buying a new printer which other printer uses the same same toner cartridge?

Hello magistern,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
The noise that you are experiencing could be cause by many different scenarios. The basis troubleshooting would include making sure the printer power cable is connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Taking a light weight lubricating oil and applying very little to the gears.
I realize that you have had this printer for some time. If you would like to see about some out of warranty options, I 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: click here.

Networking problem with desk jet 3052a J611

Greetings,
I realize there are multiple posts on this topic, and I've tried them all with no success. Used to have this printer connected to the wifi at our previous house with no problem. Moved to a different house and have Comcast now with a Cisco router, model DCP3939 with Xfinity. This router has 2 networks; a 2.4 and 5.0 ghtz. I didnt want that, but that came with the best deal offered. The computer I'm connecting with is a MacBook Pro with OS 10.9.4. I've tried to connect with both the push button and PIN methods and get a WPS error everytime.. When I printer the error report, there's no additional information other than "Failed". Thanks for your time, and please advise.

Hello laketime,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're receiving problems connecting the Deskjet 3052A J611 over your wireless network. I will do my best to assist you! I noticed you stated that you have a dual band router, which provides 2.4GH and 5.0GH. HP printers connect to the 2.4GHz frequency band and the 20 MHz bandwidth only. Are you connecting this printer using the 2.4GH or the 5.0GH?
To manage the different bands and what devices connect to each, try assigning a unique SSID (network name) to each band. For example, name the 2.4 GHz band to “Mynetwork” and the 5.0 GHz band to “Mynetwork-5G”. Communication and connectivity issues might occur with the printer connected to the 2.4 GHz band and the computer connected to the 5 GHz band. Try connecting the computer to the 2.4 GHz band. Source: Tips and Workarounds for Common Wireless Network Printer Issues.
Does this router support Bonjour since you're using a Mac computer? I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

Printing problem in Laser jet 5200

We are using HP Laserjet 5200 printer. While printing we are getting black fine spots all over. Kindly lets us know the reason. We are using original cartridges only

Hi,
Your wireless router have to support WPS in order to configure the printer usiong this method. be sure to press the WPS button of your router to connect it.
If your router does not support this method, temprarly connect a USB to your computer and follow these steps to install it wirelessly:

How to install hp laser jet 1018 on windows 7 x64

ok thanks
how to instal hp laserjet on computer windows 7 (64-bit)?

Have you already installed the driver/software and its not working or is this the first time you are installing?
For the first time installing...
1. Close any software programs running on your computer.
2. Click on the Download button ( LJ1018_1020_1022_Full_Solution.exe ) and save the file to your hard disk.
3. Double click on the downloaded file. This will extract all the driver files into a directory on your hard drive. The default directory these files are extracted to will have a similar name to the printer model.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to proceed installation.
I usually have the printer disconnected from the computer and connect the usb cord when prompted by the installer.
Is this what you are looking for?
Let me know how it turns out.

Problem with 4g LTE

We are being charged overage since last November 2012. They said my 4g LTE spiked up in November to 11GB and I have the 4GB plan a month. I started fighting with verizon then and have been fighting since then. There is no way we are using that, my husband only get on the internet to check facebook and hotmail. I even took my battery out of my device and they still said I was using data. I told tech support last night that I was ready to take both our phones and this hotspot and tell them where they could put it, and he said ok that is fine whatever you want to do. Verizon said they have been issuing me a credit, but there is a problem, I have not noticed it on bill. They have sent me two different devices and I am still having problems. One night at 900 PM I got a text message that I was at
50% then I turned it off, next morning I got up and turned on computers and hot spot...was on 15 minutes and got another text message at 75%, then 45 minutes later got another text message 90%. Then by noon that day was at 100%. That was only checking facebook and hotmail. No downloads...no streaming movies, nothing like that. I have spoken with tech support today, and they said they put a diamond ticket in on my account, suppose to research my account and see what is happening. If by the end of next month I am still having problems I am probably gonna switch company's after 25 years...but I am through fighting. When I went to verizon store today they told me other people was having problems with the jet-pak. I think they need to get this fixed and credit all of us for the past 6 months for all the overage.

Make sure you have automatic downloads turned off on your computers os, and software update turned off as well.
Those 2 items will cause your data to surge. Another thing try changing your password on your hotspot as well.

Problems printing with HP laser jet 5M and Snow Leopard

Hello,
Since In installed Snow Leopard on my mac I can no longer print with my HP laser jet 5M.
I know this is because Appletalk is no longer supported, and that I should use the laser jet as IP printer. However, I couldn't figure out how to assign an IP address to the printer. It seems I can't do this by the config menus of the printer. I read somwhere it is possible to do this by terminal (telnet) but I am not familiar with unix.
Can anybody help me to solve this problem?
many thanks

Problem with hp laser jet 9050 mfp and port security

Hello,
I activaded the port-security configuration in all the printers that we have. I've noticed that all the printers send an ethernet package that includes the same mac address 1a3c.30a9.5a8f in all the cases and this makes the port go to shutdown. I have changed the configuration to a restrict mode to avoid the shutdown in the printers.
But it keeps sending the message. So I want to know if its the switch doesn't know how to interpretate it or if its a problem with the printer?
The switch i have is a Catalyst 4500-RE and here it's a log from the issue.
Nov 11 12:40:22 CENTRAL: %PORT_SECURITY-2-PSECURE_VIOLATION: Security violation occurred, caused by MAC address 1a3c.30a9.5a8f on port GigabitEthernet4/24.
Nov 11 12:01:45 CENTRAL: %PORT_SECURITY-2-PSECURE_VIOLATION: Security violation occurred, caused by MAC address 1a3c.30a9.5a8f on port GigabitEthernet3/25.
Nov 11 12:03:58.757 CENTRAL: %PORT_SECURITY-2-PSECURE_VIOLATION: Security violation occurred, caused by MAC address 1a3c.30a9.5a8f on port FastEthernet7/16.
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
this address has got the U/L bit set and even flipping the bit doesn't get any result in the IEE OUI database.
Can you post sh port-security address output.
Regards.

Printing issue with a HP Laser Jet 1012

I am unable to print to my laser jet from any application. If I restart the printer, I can print once, but then I am unable to print anything else unless I restart again.
When the QUE dialogue box appears, it says "Printing ‘Microsoft Word - Reserved.doc’. Below that it says "Opening printer connection". In the que box below (blue/white striped box) the status says printing, but nothing is printing. Eventually it will say stopped and where it used to say "Printing ‘Microsoft Word - Reserved.doc’. it will just say "Printer Ready".
When I click on the printer utility, my printer is not listed. And when I try to add it, the computer can not find it. Not sure if that is part of the problem.
Thanks!

Hi
I have a bit of the same problem. Many times the printer will print, but the output is gibberish to me. The older driver under Tiger gave me better choices to save toner. On ECONO I was able to get more than double the output of as stated in the guidelines from HP [2500 copies] I got +- 7,000.
They shouldn't have messed with a good thing, the drivers, as they worked great before.
The printer was not recognized automatically, and I have to reinstall Leopard [clean install each time] for a third time.
This will probably be my last upgrade.
Best, to all!
