6520 randomly resetting or doing a self diagnostic

My 6520 is always either doing a self diagnostic, resetting or waking up at random times. it was only doing it once in a while, but it seems to be getting more frequent over time. It is set up wireless and use it across multiple devices, some win 7 some win 8. it is working fine on all devices, and never disconnects wirelessly, but when it wakes up, it chimes and resets the print head motor and its beginning to wake me up at night. also note that the printer is set up right next to a new netgear router and i have it all protected with wpa tkip
Please help.

Hello buzzkillbajingo. I understand the printer will perform random actions, at random times. The description you provided proves the printer is facing a hardware issue. I'm going to provide some troubleshooting you can attempt.
First, I would like you to perform a hard reset, on the printer. I will provide instructions on how to perform this task:
1. While the printer is on, unplug the power cord from the printer, and its current electrical outlet.
2. Hold down the power button on the printer for 30 seconds, while it is unplugged. This drains all the electricity out of the machine.
3. Connect the one end of the power cord into the back of the printer.
4. Connect the other end to a direct wall outlet (not a surge protector or power strip). This will ensure the machine can obtain more electricity, since lack of electricity can generate issues like this.
5. Now, try to generate a copy.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, I would install the latest firmware on the printer. I have provided a document on how to update the printer: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c02919168
Please inform me when you complete these troubleshooting steps, so I know the results.

  • Random reset of Linksys router

    Problem:  Linksys router randomly resets in small business environment.
    Model Number: WRK54G V2.0 (Router is part of Linksys Network Kit.)
    Router Firmware:  1.00.1
    Observations:  Linksys router resets when Sony laptops are using the Linksys router and other routers (from neighboring small business) are on.
    However,
    Linksys router does not reset when Sony laptops are not using the Linksys router.
    Linksys router does not reset when Sony laptops are using the Linksys router and the other routers (from neighboring small businesses) are off.  This was discovered during after hours when neighboring small business were able to turned off their routers.
    Solutions found on internet search:  All internet search solutions found to date recommend replacing the Linksys router with another brand of wireless router.  Solutions date back to March 2005.
    Question 1:  Does Linksys have a solution for using Sony laptops in a multi-router  non-Linksys environment?
    Question 2:  What is happening in the Linksys router to cause it to reset?

    My 1st gen iphone (16GB) is up to the same antics. Pre 2.0 all was perfect. Then then update... During calls, if you adjust the volume for either the iphone earpiece, speaker phone, or bluetooth headset (I'm using the Plantronics voyager 520, which was purchased at the apple store), the ringer volume gets adjusted as well.
    Just go into the sounds option under settings, make a call, and watch in awe as you adjust your call volume and ringer volume at the same time.
    I've missed calls b/c the volume resets it self to a lower (random) setting. Now I must check after every call. The best part is if you push up on your volume button while at the home screen (the ringer volume pop up appears) and note that you have it on the highest setting, go ahead and check the sound option under settings. It will be at some random lower level. Oh my phone never did this on 1.4. I do hope the engineers are reading this and release a fix ASAP. The main purpose of the iPhone is to be a phone. Missing calls due to a low ringer volume is crazy.
    Oh, I've already restored, don't bother, problem was not resolved. I haven't come across any other problems with the 2.0 update.

  • HELP!!!  iPhone randomly reset and now it won't detect SIM card?

    Ok so here's what I was doing when this all happened.
    I had called the Linksys support for a new router I just bought that wasn't working right. After waiting about 8 mins I was connected to a gentlmen in India, we worked on my problem for about 10mins or so and then all of sudden my phone just reset, or at least went to the apple logo and just sat there.
    then after 30 seconds it started ringing (before it fully restarted) and it was the tech gentlemen call me back. So I slide the thing to answer and the screen froze with the slider on the right but not unlocked but I could see the time and my back ground, just no buttons and I could still hear him and talk to him.
    After we fix my problem with the router he hung up, but my phone was still froze and then it started ringing (a friend had tried to call me before it reset while I was on the phone so I assume it was him again). I couldn't answer and it just kept ringing and ringing so I held the wake button and slide the red slider to shut it off.
    Left it off for 30 seconds or so then press and held it again to turn it on. Now it says restore need, connect to itunes!
    ok, so I did and after wait about 30sec to a minute after connecting it to itunes it comes up with this error:
    *"iTunes cannot activate your iPhone because the SIM card is not inserted or a SIM PIN is required. Disconnect your iPhone, make sure the SIM card is inserted correctly and, if you use a SIM PIN, tap Unlock to enter it, and then reconnect your iPhone."*
    What the heck?! I've had it randomly reset once before about a month and a half ago and which point I did have to restore, and it did and it worked fine after that.
    The SIM card IS in there, and I have no idea what my SIM PIN would be, nor do I see the option for it they speak of! And this happened about 9:30pm, well after any Apple or AT&T stores are closed! I even turned off the phone, took the SIM card out and put it back and it still did the same thing!
    What would cause this to randomly just mess-up like this? I loved this phone when I got it but now that this is the 2nd time this has happened and much worse I'm pretty ticked about it. And it's not like I hacked it or unlocked it or whatever that is even called, the only things I've put on my iphone are music, pictures, and programs I all got thru itunes!
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hi Guys,
    I'm writing this from the UK. Got an iPhone 3G bought a few weeks ago and activated (no jailbreak or other stuff)it. It worked fine but last night it gave the same error as originally reported in this thread.
    Went into the O2 store (this is the provider selling iPhones in the UK) and they told me is the SIM card. Got a new one but still the same...
    There is something going on here because I've seen lots of claims with the exact same description. Its almost like there is a bug in the software that gets activated on the 3rd of January.
    Will go tomorrow again and ask for a new phone.

  • IPod and JVC Car Stereo random resetting problem

    Hey all,
    I recently bought my first iPod (yay!), a 30gig 5th generation. I also had a JVC KD-PDR30 cd player installed in my car so that I could hook up the iPod to it and eliminate all the random cds cluttering up my vehicle. It works great -- most of the time... the last few days I've my iPod has been randomly resetting itself while connected to the car stereo -- it's connected through the dock port (not the headphone jack) and works 90% of the time. Even still, this is frustrating. I almost want to just connect it from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car stereo. Anyway, it only seems to do this while it is connected to the car stereo. I've never had a problem with the iPod resetting while using it outside of the car. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Apple community!!!
    Theo

    I had the JVC radio with iPod connector which worked just fine for my old iPod. When I upgraded to the iTouch I had to put in a new JVC stereo. The old version does not work with the iTouch (the same issues prev. stated). The new stereo has an USB hookup on the front. It plays the iTouch, but occas. the song or book will skip. At first I thought it was when I turned corners, but realized it was just random. A bit annoying. I looked at other stereos, but I could not get the iTouch and Sirus in the same unit, except for the JVC. If you can live without your iTouch I would wait until JVC or Apple address this issue. I could not live without either (I hate commercials!), so I made the jump to the first generation. I know better.

  • Random reset of ringtone volume since update to 2.0

    Since updating to 2.0 my ringtone volume level, which I keep on the hightest level, will randomly reset to mid-level, causing me to miss a number of calls. Anyone else notice this and is there a solution?

  • Has anyone resolved the whirring sound from the Macbook late 2008 Optical Drive Self-diagnostic yet?

    Has anyone resolved the whirring sound from the Macbook late 2008 Optical Drive Self-diagnostic yet?

    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If the hard drive does not appear in the DU sidebar list then it has died and will have to be replaced. No need to proceed beyond this point.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • IPhone 6 Random Reset and deleting call log and texts?

    Anyone else have an issue where their carrier setting were updated, and afterwards their phone randomly reset? I updated my carrier setting, (My phone prompted me to). After that, it did a reset, and when it came back, all my texts and call logs were deleted. I'm curious if it was just a glitch? Or if anyone else is having these issues.

    Hi,
    You have low free memory left on your device. 15mb is considered minimum, you have
    Do you have a lot of third party applications on your BB weather, icall,bbalerts etc?
    I do not know your experience level, so if you know this I'm sorry but please read and let me
    know if this applies.
    Most people close the applications by pressing the escape or red key. This does not close the applications.
    Each application has a CLOSE option. For instance if you are in the calendar hit the menu key (spotted key) and scroll down to the bottom CLOSE is listed. Go through each application and press close. Go into the browser press menu and options select cache operations clear all categories and hit escape it will say cleaning memory.
    Go to options - security - memory cleaning - enable it. The BB will now clean memory when idle for 5 minutes. (if you have that option)

    What do you mean "That's the normal use you should give to your Mac"? The one that i said "I want to do is fully charge it and use it without the charger connected, can i do that everyday? " And what do you also mean "At least once a month, I recommend you to use the computer until the battery runs out, and then charge the battery" Is that a calibrating a battery? But some other user said that I shouldnt run my battery out, I should charge it on 20%. Is that true?
    If you read the second link I posted, it gives more details about this. Lithium-ion batteries last longer with shallow, not deep, discharges. This means if you use it every day, draining the battery partially (maybe to 60-80%), and charge it back up to full, that's good. But if you use it every day draining it until the battery is completely empty, that's bad and will shorten battery life. That's why I keep it plugged in when near an outlet.
    Refer to Table 2 in the Battery University link I posted: "Table 2: Cycle life as a function of depth of discharge. A partial discharge reduces stress and prolongs battery life."
    But let's be realistic. If you cannot reach a power outlet for most of the day, then you have only so much control over your cycling pattern; use the battery as you need to get your work done, even if that means emptying it frequently. Simply budget for a potential battery replacement sooner than other users. Apple does provide a battery replacement service for a fee.

  • IPad mini randomly resets

    Maybe they try to sell you a new device because the error codes indicate hardware problems. You yourself stated that you have restored, reset, reloaded, etc. There isn't much more that you can do than what you have already done. If you restored as new - without loading a backup - and took the device to Apple for evaluation and they deem it to be hardware, then I would take their word for it.
    Now having said that, you really provided no details in any context as to what happened when you took the iPad to the Apple Store.

  • WRT160N V3 Xbox 360 trouble router randomly resetting PLEASE HELP

    For Christmas 2009, I received the wrt160n v3 Linksys by Cisco router. This router worked fine until about early November of 2010, when I would turn on my xbox to play a multiplayer game, and the router would randomly reset and i would lose my connection, as well as all the computers connected to the router would lose their connection to the internet. I actually sent that one back to linksys through an rma and received a new one of the same model and version, and I am still having the same problem. The router even resets when I am not on my xbox, simply just on my laptop. It is incredibly frustrating and cannot seem to find any help on the internet. Does anyone else have this problem? Are there any solutions? Is it my router or could it be my xbox screwing everything up? Any help is welcome, thank you very much

    nevermind my router just reset while playing xbox. mtu is 1365, i unchecked that box, and opened my nat type, and it still reset. im starting to get extremely dissatisfied with your products

  • RV042G Random Resets

    I am hoping someone might be able to provide some insight or post back that they are having similar issues with the RV042G.
    We have about 30-35 of these units deployed at small offices supplying networking services (DHCP, VPN, etc.).  All have different configurations (some no VPN, some 7-8 VPN connections, different carriers for Internet connectivity, etc.) so I am unable to find or pinpoint a common cause of my issue. The network size does not seem to be an issue either as it has happened on both small and larger workgroups.
    The problem I am having is at over the past 2-3 months I have had about 7 of these units randomly reset to the defaults.  At that point I need to log into the device and set it backup.  While not a huge deal if the device is local, my last 3 hour drive has me thinking I need to pull these things and move to something else.
    All of the devices are plugged into battery backup.  All devices that have failed are running the latest v4.2.3.03 firmware.
    Cisco support has not been able to suggest any recommendations at this time as the reboot erases all logs.  They are asking me to setup some syslog servers (which I am willing to do) but the problem is I have no idea where (or even if) this will happen again (so which routers do I set this up on).
    Any thoughts or ideas on to cause or possible fix? Any suggestions or ideas are welcome.
    I appreciate your time as I know its value.

  • Random resets, erased call logs, and faulty bb messenger

    Apologies in advance if this has been discussed, but after a quick search, I couldn't find anything.
    Prior to getting a 4GB memory card, I had a problem where people would ping me on BB messenger and I'd get the smiley icon.  After checking the chat log, it only shows the last message sent, rather than the new message, leaving the smiley face icon still active.
    In addition to this, my curve wouldn't save my call logs and would automatically delete some text messages.  I linked this problem to insufficient on-phone memory and get a new card, to which it was solved with the occasional bugs.
    Lately, my phone's been randomly resetting, deleting the texts and call logs, and gave me the BB messenger issue again.  It's frustrating doing the hard reset (taking battery out) as a quick fix, and rather, I'd like to figure out the source of the problem and remedy that.
    Does anyone know what's going on?
    On a side note, my memory card doesn't snugly fit in the slot.  My latch, for some reason, doesn't close tightly and is not completely aligned with the track.  I figure the battery pushes the card in tight enough to not bring up issues, and I confirm that I've never had issues accessing my music or pictures stored on the memory card.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi.
    You have 64 mb of total memory on your device. You sent that you have 5mb free.
    15 mb free would be considered a minimum.
    Most people close the applications by pressing the escape or red key. This does not close the applications.
    Each application has a close option. For instance if you are in the calendar hit the menu key (spotted key) and scroll down to the bottom close is listed. 
    When done using the browser, press menu and options, select cache operations,
    clear all categories and hit escape it will clean the browser cache.
    Use the attached links to manage your memory efficiently.
    Thanks,
