That page's troubleshooting for the "Filter failed" message worked out. I consulted the Wiki before but never found that exact page. I guess I didn't use the best search criteria. Thanks for pointing it out.

  • HP Color Laserjet 2605dn won't print the red color

    My HP Color Laserjet 2605dn won't print the red color.  It's comes out very light, barely a pink color.  It's not the ink cartridge because it's full and I'm having this problem even when I change cartridges.

    Hello dp146,
    I understand your concerns. Unfortunately, I need to direct you to our Enterprise Business Community Forums.
    This will be the right section to troubleshoot this issue.

  • Laserjet 2605dn - Won't print the color RED

    My 2 year old 2605dn is acting up.  When I try to print a test page made up of several colors the color red comes out orange on the left side and fads to yellow on the far right side.  I have changed the toner cartridge (all cartridges are HP, no knock offs or refilled cartridges, EVER!), but the problem still exists.  I printed the supplies status page and the red column shows a full cartridge but the color is a pale pink, not red.
    Can someone tell me what's going on?
    Is the printer failing?
    Can this problem be fixed?
    Thanks for any help!

    Here is what to do:

  • LaserJet 1020 won't print first document after powering up

    My LaserJet 1020 won't print the first document it receives after powering-up. Print manager shows that the document is being sent, the printer makes noise like it's getting ready to print, but the document is never printed and I don't receive an error messages. If I send the document again the document prints as does every document there after.
    I'm using Windows Vista Professional and the printer is connected via USB 2.0.

    Hi jnickelsen,
    I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
    Thank you for your reply.
    I will be happy to help you with this.
    This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
    What drivers are you using?
    Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
    If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.
    Find and Fix Common Printer Problems Using HP Diagnostic Tools for Windows.
    Hope this helps.

  • HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents & envelope problem

    My HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents until i send another document, then it will print the last page of the previous document, but omit the last page of the current document.  I need to keep printing a blank page or any other page to get my previous documents completely printed.  Also, the envelopes print with large rectangular boxes on them and no address (I don't know if this is a result of the previous stated problem or not - it started happening at the same time) I use the envelope feature in Microsoft Word 2010.  I never used to have either of these problems - didn't make any changes to the system or add any software to the computer, so I know it's not that.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • Apple AirPort Express - HP LaserJet M1120 won't print entire document

    Hi,
    My first post.  I've recently purchased Airport Express and installed all necessary programmes (incl. Airport Base Station Agent and Bonjour print service) on my Win 7 Ultimate x64.
    The device is set up as "Join a existing network".
    Airplay works without any issues, but printing does not.
    I've also installed the driver for HP LaserJet M1120 printer.
    When I send something to print (regardless of the file), it won't print the entire document. Usually, it prints smaller documents (up to 10 pages) normally, but when it comes to larger documets it prints only half of the document.
    I send 30 pages document to print and it prints only 15 pages. Then I need to re-send print command and again, it prints only half - 7 or 8. Printer just stops.
    Sometimes i get "Error-printing", but not always.
    This issue happens on all 4 PCs that I have at home all running Win 7 Ultimate x64 or Win Vista Home Premium x32.
    Any ideas?
    HP Print Diagnostic Utility did not find any issues also. Says everything is OK. 

    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the  AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers. 
    To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at thisiFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try.
    Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule
    Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.

  • HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print pdf files

    I have just hooked up a new iMac with Mac OS 10.9.5 and now my reliable HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print .pdf files anymore--it just hangs for hours. I am an academic and work 50% with pdf's.  I tried to download a new driver from the HP site for all MAC OS systems 10.7 and up, but the message when the download was finished opened up in a little box that reads: "ljp2055_Firmware_Upd Image not recognised."
    I've unplugged, plugged back in, turned off, turned back on countless times. Don't know what else to try?
    Thank you.

    Hi john, I did some looking around and maybe try this page for some tips, sometimes the microsoft forums help me out dearly.

  • HP Laserjet P1006 won't print "Printer Offline"

    My hp laserjet p1006 won't print and the error message says "printer offline". The printer does show up in System Profiler. The printer is on, and connected via USB. Ready light on printer is on. Sometimes the orange light blinks but is mostly off. I tried different USB ports (eliminating the hub) and switched out the USB cable. Restarted computer and printer, updated driver and repaired disk permissions. I recently switched to Snow Leopard but the printer has printed since I switched numerous times.
    I had this problem 2 weeks ago and finally it fixed itself, but since a restart it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    Yes, I just downloaded the Apple HP update 2.3. The driver that was showing in my Printer Setup Utility was 1.2.0.224. Now I downloaded and installed 2.3 but the Printer Setup Utility only shows 1.2.0.224. 2.3 is not listed in the driver list. Why is that?
    2.3 is the version of the update, not the version of the driver.
    According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669, 1.2.0.224 is the correct version of the HP driver.
    Final question: why do I have problems nobody else does?
    People are having a variety of problems. It may be because of permissions, previous versions of the HP software that was installed and not deleted. Since there wasn't support for this printer on Snow Leopard until the 2.2 update, it's hard to guess what the issue was, but you're not alone - read some of threads here.
    If you run into this problem again, delete the <hard drive>/Library/Printers/hp folder, delete your printer from Print & Fax, then run Software Update and re-add the printer.
    Hope this helps.

  • Laserjet M475DW won't print last page from iPad

    It's all in the subject. The printer prints fine via the iPad PrinterControl app but won't print the last page of the Word document or Powerpoint slide deck. Since you can't choose which page to print from PrinterControl, I can't force the printer to print only the last page. The ePrint app looks like you can choose to print only the last page, but the pages shown on the iPad's screen in print preview don't match the actual pages of the document, so there's no control. Printing via the iPad's native email app gives crazy font size and overwritten text. Can anyone please help me? Thanks in advance.

    Lg28,
    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .

  • When I try to print an jpeg or png from Photoshop all it does is convert the image to a PDF & plop it on my desktop- it won't print the image. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

    When I try to print an jpeg or png from Photoshop all it does is convert the image to a PDF & plop it on my desktop- it won't print the image. Any suggestions as to how to fix this?

    Yes, the printer is on, it’s selected in Printer Set-Up & I’ve never had this problem before. It’s definitely a Photoshop issue as every other type of file prints fine. I’ve uninstalled Pshop & am now reinstalling. Hope that will do the trick.

  • Macbook Pro won't print the first page of any file in any application.

    Problem: My Mid-2009 Macbook Pro won’t print the first page in Microsoft Word, Sibelius 6, or in Adobe Reader. My printer is an old Canon MP480 that’s worked for almost 2 years perfectly. As well, the “print to pdf” function results in the same error. However, if I open a new user account it all works fine. To change user accounts would be an extreme hassle though so, if possible, I would like to first remedy this one.
    Recent changes: the motherboard of my computer was replaced about a week and a half ago. I printed a lot of stuff from Word two days ago and that worked fine but, already then the print to pdf function was cropping off the first page. At the time, though, I accredited the issue to the word documents being filled with pictures of sheet music that I was printing instead of text.
    Things I have tried:
    Updated Mac software
    Repaired Disc Permissions in Disk Utility
    Checked for new printer drivers/firmware
    Reset the PRAM (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379.)

    No but it's not a printer-related issue because the "Print to PDF" function also leaves out the first page.

    Then new version of IMovie imported nearly all of my video and then  suddenly closed.  Now it won't recognize the video that it stil hasn't  imported?  I took the sd card out of the canon camcorder but still won't  recognize or import it.  Is there a cache that needs cleared?

    Did you get any joy with answering this?
    My first thought was that maybe when you imported you chose to leave the files  in place rather than copy then to the iMovie library..but I can't see where that option is now.
    I too have created a short movie from load f clips..but can't export or share either..the 'Share 'menu is empty..you go to it and no sub menu appears.

  • If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.

    If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.  I just bought the Airport Express and it's not clear how I should set up my System Preferences for Sharing.  Thx

    Yes. Unfortunately the stereo is too far from the wired ethernet connection   My iMac is connected to the internet using an ethernet cable from the DSL modem (plugged into the wall, not wireless).  The Airport Express is plugged into an outlet 25' away from the iMac and connected to my speakers.  I've turned on the iMac Airport wireless Internet Sharing, hoping to stream iTunes to the Express connected to the stereo.  The iMac Airport picks up several neighborhood networks so I know it's working (and I connected my iPhone wifi to it just to check as well).
    When I use Airport Utility to set up the Express, the only time Utility recognizes the Express is when the iMac Airport is off.  When I turn on the iMac Airport, the Airport Utility immediately loses the Express and asks to rescan.
    Maybe that explains my problem better.
