Queue based printing stopped after 6.5 upgrade

I had several print queues sitting on vol1 of a server, and after I upgraded
the server from Netware 6.0 to Netware 6.5 we lost access to them. Now when
I try to do a capture to that printer queue, I can click on browse and find
the queue, but when I click on capture it says "The queue could not be
found. Make sure you typed the path correctly and try again."
I then tryed to create a new queue, but I get the same problem... I can't
capture it. I tried createing a new queue on some of my 6.0 server and got
the same thing. I finally created a queue on one of my clustered volumes,
and that works.
I would like to be able to create a print queue on vol1 of my 6.5 server.
Any idea how to get this to work again?
Thanks.

Queue Based Printing with Netware 6.5

I have just picked up a client who just upgraded to Netware for small
business 6.5...They want a HP Laser Jet 4m plus installed...They still
want to use queue based printing...I went to HPs website and saw that Web
Jetadmin is bye bye...First off, is that true, second off, how to I set
up the print queue....I set it up in NDS but it doesn't seem to
work..maybe it's because it doesn't know what IP address..Please
advise...Thank you.

My situation isn't quite the same as yours, so what I tell you
now may not apply.
We are a NetWare 4.11 network with IPX protocol loaded on the
servers. We use standard print queues, not NDPS.
To set up a new printer to a print queue, I follow this procedure:
First, create the Queue:
1. Open NetWare Administrator (NWADMN32.EXE).
2. Select the container into which you wish to place your objects.
3. From the tools menu, choose Print Services Quick Setup (non NDPS).
4. Name your PS, P and Q objects as you wish, and specify a volume
and server upon which you wish the queue files to reside.
Now, configure the Printer:
5. Open WebJetAdmin, and double-click on the printer you wish to set.
6. From the drop-down menu, choose Configuration.
7. Choose the Network Configuration category.
8. If you wish, you may specify your Ethernet Frame Type, or leave
it on Auto.
9. Ensure that IPX is enabled as a Protocol Stack.
10. Under NDS configuration, enter the Print Server object name you
specified earlier.
11. Choose your Tree.
12. Browse to the context in which you created your PS object.
Once you apply those settings, and restart the print server, it
should service the queue.
You could also try to find an older version of HP's Install Network
Printer Wizard. I use version 3.06 and it works perfectly. This
will create all the NDS objects for you, configure the printer, and
add it as an available printer on your workstation, all at the same
time. Newer versions of the software do not support NetWare.
I hope this has been of some use to you, and anyone who finds this
message in the future (hello to you, person reading in the future).

Server hangs with queue based printing

We have a Netware 6.5 SP1 server used for queue based printing with HP

Unable to print to Sharp MFP using Queue based printing

Help
I am testing some Sharp MFP's and am unable to get them working using QUEUE based printing.
Everything is ok with NDPS.
I have setup the Printserver, printer and queue in NW ADMIN.
The printer server is logged into the Netware 6.5 server, I can see in the monitor screen.
When I setup my printer on the XP client and send a test job I can see it in the queue in NW ADMIN.
But not job is delivered to the printserver.
Reading some strings it suggest problems with 8.7 E Directory.
Can anyone help a Netware novice?

Question is: why? If it works with NDPS then use NDPS and if you need a
queue for anything, then just have the NDPS-printer servcice it.

HP LaserJet 2420n and Queue Based Printing?

I'm looking at a new workgroup printer and am leaning towards the HP
LaserJet 2420n
The price is about right, I'm sticking with HP, and this seems to be the
replacement for the 2100, 2200, and 2300 series which I liked a lot.
It has a built in JetDirect, although I can't find which model.
HP's site says this:
Compatible Network Operating Systems:
Via HP Jetdirect print servers: Microsoft Windows 98, Me, NT 4.0, 2000,
XP, XP 64-Bit, Server 2003; Novell NetWare 3.2, 4.2, 5.x, 6.x; Apple Mac OS
8.6 and later; Red Hat Linux 6.x and later; SuSE Linux 6.x and later; HP-UX
10.20, 11.x; Solaris 2.5x, 2.6, 7, 8, 9, 10 (SPARC systems only); IBM AIX
3.2.5 and later; MPE-iX, Terminal server/Citrix
Note that NetWare 4.2 (and so also 4.11) is listed.
That is the only mention of NetWare I can find about this printer. Does
anyone out there have one already? Can it be used with Queue Based (non-
NDPS) Printing? Does the built in JetDirect support this natively?
Thanks for your help,
AZC

I just installed one of these on our network with queue bases services using
the web interface and it worked, once I figured out how to declare the
context for the queue.

HELP! canon ip1800 printer stops after cups update

Hi All,
After the recent cups update to 1.4.1-1, my little canon pixma ip1800 printer does not work.
I had used a couple of old debian packages to get the printer working when I first bought it: cnijfilter-common and the cnijfilter-ip1800. By using the deb2targz utility to unpack the debs, I was able to just write a short shell script to install the driver, which has worked well for ages.
I downloaded the AUR cnijfilter packages for this printer, installed or built all the dependencies, removed the old debian based printer driver and installed the AUR packages.
However, after a reboot, when I used the cups admin page (http://localhost:631) and tried to install the pixma ip1800, I keep getting the same error:
Bad device-uri "cnij_usb:/dev/usb/lp0"
I just don't understand why the AUR driver is not working, both parts built ok-any ideas?
I need this printer working again! Help.
Cheers for any help.

I have the same printer. In addition to the steps outlined in the news entry I had to delete the printer from the cups admin panel and re-add it. Of course you'll have to redo any customizations you made to the ppd file so before you do this you may want to make a backup of that printer's ppd file (ie. /etc/cups/ppd/ Canon_iP1800_series.ppd ) to reference later.

Won't Print Color After Operating System Upgrade

Within the last year I purchased a LaserJet CP1525nw color, and I recently upgraded to Windows 7 32-bit and now I can't print color. I've tried loading the driver from the CD that originally came with the print and I get an error message saying that it can not install the driver. I've looked on the HP website to see if there are any updates for this printer and I can't seem to find any. I was able to find a list of devices that are supported by Windows 7, and a list of devices that are not supported by Windows 7 and my printer was not on either list.
I'm wondering if there is anything that I've missed as far as fixes or updates for this problem, or am I just out of luck with wanting to print color with this printer now that I've upgraded to Windows 7.

Hi Akfshslyr,
Try installing the full feature software and driver for this printer.

Queue Based printers stopped working after Zen 7 installed

We have just installed Zenworks 7 suite. We have Windows XP machines with new Novell client and zfdagent. We have a policy setup and users can login and receive their applications but they can not print. All over our printers have Queues, Servers and Printer Objects listed in Console1. Each classroom has two printers. When the user checks the printer in Printer and Faxes it is listed but the port are not listed. How can I fix this problem?
Thanks

When the user does a right click over the printer and selects Properties. On the Properties window go to the Ports tab. On this tab the port for the printer should be listed as \\severname\printer. If you login locally you can see this printer and print to it. When you login using your network credentials you can see the printers but not printer to them. One of the printers says unable to connect. The other says nothing, but still will not print.

Canon MF4370 network printing fails after 10.6 upgrade

Have been using a Canon MF4370dn printer for the past year with a desktop PC, notebook PC and two MacBook Pro. Printer was connected via Ethernet cable to our AT&T wireless router. MacBook Pro running 10.5.x was able to print via AirPort WiFi just fine. After upgrading to 10.6 and replacing the router with an Airport Express I discovered both MacBooks are no longer able to print via the network. I have tried several solutions posted on this board for various Canon UFRII printer problems, but nothing is working.
Here are some relevant setup and diagnostic details:
* Mac OS X 10.6.5
* Firewall is turned off
* Canon UFR II v2.20 driver (followed prior version uninstall procedure from manual multiple times)
* Added printer first via Bonjour, then via IP address and LPD
* Able to access printer management interface via web browser
* Able to print from desktop PC via Ethernet cable and from laptop PC via WiFi
* Able to print from MacBook Pro connected via USB. UFRII print monitor gives error "Cannot monitor this printer with the current connection."
* Unable to print from two MacBook Pros connected either via Ethernet cable or Airport WiFi. Print command returns 10322 error "Cannot communicate with the printer" and UFRII print monitor gives error "Printer not responding."
I would appreciate any additional ideas!
Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome to Apple Discussions.
First of all I would like to complement you on the work you have done so far. Under most situations I would have expected you to resolve your issue with all that you have done.
The clue for getting this to work is the UFR2 Printmonitor. Once it can communicate with the MF then the driver will function.
From your information I believe that the UFR2 Printmonitor could be still looking for the previous setup when the MF was connected via the AT&T router. When you manually delete the UFR2 driver including "UFR2.BG.plist" this does not work correctly when the service is still running. You will see the 'UFR II Backgrounder' service via Activity Monitor.
So I suggest that you open the UFRII Printmonitor and then click on the Printer menu. You may see the MF4370dn with a USB icon next to it from the previous USB connection. And it should also show the MF4370dn with a network icon next to it. What you want to do is update this network 'link' to the current network connection and that can be done by pressing 'Search for Printer'. Nothing will be visible on the display when this completes so leave it a couple of seconds and then open the UFRII Printmonitor > Printer menu again. If you now select the MF4370dn entry shown with a network icon this should now show a connection to the printer rather than a not responding error. If this does work then you can exit Printmonitor and try printing.
If it still fails to print then delete the MF printer queue and manually remove the UFR2 driver files again, this time adding the extra step of Force Quitting the UFRII Backgrounder service via Activity Monitor. Then restart the Mac and run the v2.20 UFR2 installer again and then add the printer via LPD.
See how that goes and reply if needed.

Lost Printer Sharing after HP Driver Upgrade.

I have a 3.06 Intel Core Duo iMac and a 253 Intel Core i5 Macbook Pro. Both are running 10.6.8. They have until recently successfully shared my HP C8180 All in One Printer, the iMac being connected to the printer via USB and to a Netgear Router via Ethernet and the Macbook Pro being linked to the router wirelessly.
Having just updated the HP Drivers via software update on both machines the Macbook Pro is no longer able to connect to the printer via the iMac wirelessly and the printer is not reported as being "Nearby". It does however connect via the iMac if it is connected to the router via Ethernet !
Printer sharing is on on the iMac, I have tried removing the printer from both machines Preferences and re-instating them (which coincidentally has meant I have lost the connection to "Lightscribe" and can't get it back on either machine !) I've tried installing the latest HP Software to try and get the Macbook pro to connect to the printer directly via the router but witth no success - it reports that some of the HP software is not compatible with 10.6.8 despite HP saying it is for 10.6.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get the laptop to print in the way it did up until earlier today and how to get "lightscribe" back?

After more experimentation I found that not only was Printer Sharing not working neither was File Sharing but printer sharing worked if both computers were connected to my Netgear router by ethernet but not when the laptop was connected wirelessly.
This suggested a wireless problem, possibly within the Netgear Router. As both could access the internet however they were connected to the router it looked as though the router was not passing an incoming wireless message from the laptop out to the iMac via ethernet.
I finally found a solution to the printer sharing part of my problem. I remembered eventually that I had a similar problem some many months ago and that it resolved itself after all of my equipment had been switched off and disconnected from the mains power.
Consequently I switched everything off, unplugged it all from the mains power supply and left it for 25 minutes. On reconnecting and rebooting everything the printer sharing now works properly again with the MacBook Pro connected wirelessly and the iMac via ethernet to the router an, for printing, the iMac via USB to the printer.
I think that the loss of "Lightscribe" may relate to the way the printer is set up internally. Reviwing the Printer User Manual I suspect that it is probably reverted to a set up allowing control of "Lightscribe" internally rather than via a computer (possibly this happened after a reset of the printer to factory settings some time in the past) and when I removed Lightscribe from the list of printers in the iMac's Print & Fax preferences the iMac couldn't find it again. As I don't use "Lightscribe" I'm leaving well alone.
Hope this self reply helps others.

Epson stylus photo RX595 Printer stopped after updates

I just updated my computer stuff to 10.5.7 and my printer suddenly stopped working. I actually updates several items, but I imagine it was the OS. I can access the printer utility and it will still give me ink levels and other info, but it won't print. The status just changes to "stopped." Stuff like this makes me want to not update the computer.
Any ideas?

I don't have any answers for you. Something similar happened to me . . . when I went wireless with Apple Airport Extreme. I did everything: read all the postings on the topic . . . and there a zillion! I called Epson, they have NO CLUE. I finally connected the printer directly to my iMac, so I am able to print, but I am still unable to scan.
You might try trashing all the Epson stuff in your apps folder and reinstalling from the discs or from the website. Good Luck.
If anyone else has an idea, I'd love to hear it. I have a drawer full of Epson inkjet cartridges, so am reluctant tow switch to another printer . . . but I am sorely tempted.

Losing Printer Options after Snow Leopard Upgrade? Any solution?

I've lost the ability to print multiple pages on one page with my Samsung SCX-4500 printer. The only factor that changed is upgrading to Snow Leopard.
I've reinstalled printer drivers but the Page Setup/Layout drop down screen is not available.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Does anyone have ideas as to how to solve it?
I hate wasting paper and the multipage function was a factor in purchasing this printer from Apple.
Thanks.

This ability shouldn't be tied to the specific printer you are using.
I've reinstalled printer drivers but the Page Setup/Layout drop down screen is not available.
What application are you printing from? Some applications don't have a Page Setup.
The Layout panel is in the menu that contains the current application's name. For instance, if you are printing from Safari and the print dialog is expanded (use the disclosure triangle to the right of the printer's name if it isn't), clicking on "Safari" will show the Layout menu.
Hope this helps.

Printing slow after Snow Leopard Upgrade

Hi! Newbie here! I recently upgraded my 2007 iMac to Snow Leopard and as a result my Canon BJC-2100 printer has slowed to a crawl. It seems the software adjusted the print quality to the sharpest setting but this also slowed the process way down. I don't see anything to help me adjust the print quality or otherwise change the printing speed.
I would love to hear from forum members as to how to speed the printing back up a bit. Am I doomed to have to buy another printer?
Thank you!

Thanks. Yes I went to Canon's web site and plugged in Snow Leopard for my printer. I received the following message:
"There is no driver for the OS version you selected. The driver may be included in your OS or you may not need a driver."
Too bad there doesn't seem a way for me to change the printer's settings back to the way it was.

Printing from an IPad2 to my C410A printer stopped after shared the printer.

Please help to clear up my IPad2/HP Printer problem. I have a HP C410a. The C410a printer is wired to a Dell desktop. The Dell desktop is wired to my Cisco Linksys E4200 router. The C410 shows a strong wireless signal to the Cisco router. A year ago, a MacBook Air and two IPads were brought into my home wireless network. They instantly and automatically saw the C410 printer. They could print. Six months later, I introduced an additional Dell desktop to my home network. It has a wireless connection to the router. It could not see the printer. I made the printer a shared printer. The new Dell desktop then saw the printer and could print. The three Apple products then could no longer see the printer. With research, I was able to use the options on the Air laptop to find the printer, and now it works on the printer. The IPads do not offer the same menu options as the laptop, and I cannot point them to the printer. How can I get the IPads to see the C410a printer, again? Everyone has the latest SW. Everyone has been unplugged and turned on in the right order. Thanks!

I think I may know what is going on....from what your telling me your connected to the Dell PC via USB and the printers wireless radio was on....that is why the ipads could see it because it was broadcasting a signal. IF that is the case then your printer probally is not broad casting the signal anymore. The Printer must be wireless or ethernet to the router or the printer just needs to broad broadcast a signal for the iPads to see it.
