Accessing memory on HP Officejet Pro L7580 (L7500 series) in order to reprint lost documents

I printed a mailing label using PDF format purchased through Amazon.com.  Amazon does not offer a solution for viewing and printing a history of the label.  Now I need to get a copy to prove to the post office that my label was accurate.   I printed the label on my HP Officejet Pro L7580.  I had heard or read that the memory on a printer can be accessed.  I remember it was a big deal for security when I was active duty military and working in a corporate office.  So is there a way to access the memory of my HP Officejet (printe que or something), and retrieve a copy of what was printed before.
If there is, how?  what software do I need?  etc.
Best Regards
Ed

Hey Ed,
The L7580 does not have any internal storage for print jobs like some larger form enterprise printers.  The device does not store print jobs locally.  The PC does not store print jobs, however, some print servers set up to control a print queue store print jobs.  
Are you printing through a Print Server or simply printing from a PC?

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580- here's a new one for HP Mac Architect

    So like all the other disgruntled HP users who foolishly installed 10.5 when it was released, I have been without a scanner ever since. Until three days ago, however, I've been able to print, as the driver for the L7580 was included in Leopard. Now, whenever I try to print a document, the print queue opens and the job says "stopped", which, incidentally, is the same thing that happens when I send a print job to my other once-was-a-printer-now-just-a-giant-waste-of-space, the Canon LBP5000. I've racked my brain trying to think if I've done something to trigger this, pestered the HP call in support center, installed, uninstalled and installed the printer again, restarted, replaced the USB cable- anything I can think of. Nothing works. I run a small business and while it's been a huge inconvenience to lose my not so inexpensive scanner, I've made due with an old one waiting for HP to get their act together and release software that actually works with 10.5. Needless to say, I cannot work without a printer. Am I going to have to go back to Tiger now? Spend untold thousands of dollars on a printer that probably won't work with leopard anyway? Can anyone advise? HP Mac Architect?

    After reading other forum comments from people having the same problem with the yellow cartridge popping-out, combined with others who have realised that HP have no interest in compensating anyone for this rediculous example of, at best, 'bad design', or at worst 'blatent planned obsolescence', I have created a 'quick fix' that may add another 1, 2 or more years of life to the HP Officejet Pro L7580 Printer.

    I found a wooden triangular door stop that I cut to size that fitted exactly in the space between the plastic door and the offending yellow cartridge. To hold it in place, I wrapped the doorstop with 2" cellotape, then I stuck the door stop to the inside of the plastic door with double sided cellotape (double sided stick-on foam would also work well). With the doorstop in the correct place, the plastic door closed perfectly and was snug enough to apply sufficent pressure to the offending yellow cartridge, and hence stopping it from popping out again.  To make sure the plastic door does not 'fly open' with the pressure of the yellow cartridge (when it wants to pop out!), I applied another piece of 2" cellotape around the outside of the door, holding it to the body of the photocopier.
    This exercise only took 10-15 mins to do.  I feel this is a much better option than spending another $300+ on a new All-in-One  system, as well as being a good environmental solution.  If this is DELIBERATE 'planned obsolescence', companies like HP need to be more accountable for, at best, 'sloppy design'.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

  • Can't print wirelessly from my MacBook Pro to HP Officejet Pro L7580 anymore?

    I really need some help to get my MacBook Pro to print wirelessly to my HP Officejet Pro L7580! I am running 
    Mac OS X Lion 10.7 (11A494a) on my computer. The only way I can print is wired by usb. As of about a week ago, the Bonjour quit working, although, it is still listed as a printing option. However, it says it's offline and not connected!

    Hello,
    Thanks for the post.  with this one, you do have the option of printing through HP's ePrint Home and Biz.  I've included a couple of links below with some excellent information regarding ePrint and how to get started.  Good Luck!

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580 not recognized and unable to install

    Hello everyone,
    We purchased a MacBook Pro and for sometime we had it connected to our HP Officejet Pro L7580 using its usb connection.  This MacBook Pro is running Mountain Lion software with the current printer update.  We moved and relocated our printer to a more suitable room.  In our house we have two routers.  Our main router is Actiontec MI424-WR and the secondary router is  Dlink DIR 655.  The Dlink is connected lan-to-lan with Actiontec. The printer is connected to Dlink router which is downstairs.  I have spent considerable amount of time figuring out why our MacBook Pro doesn't recognize this printer.  We have other computers at home that runs in unix (Ubuntu) and windows (Windows 7) and those computers are able to print, scan, and fax to this computer without problems.  The connections to all computers are the same which is wireless.  I have read a lot post in this community and as well as HP community and it doesn't provide any solution to this problem.  I am able to ping this printer from the MacBook with no problem.  When I install this printer using ip method the scan option is not there.  However if I bring the computer downstairs and install it using usb the scan option appears.  I am thinking that HP didn't provide a driver for scan option if you're connected wireless or ethernet.  But I found out that the current drivers for mountain lion for this particular printer has a scan capability.  I need some help in figuring out what's going on with this.  I would like to be able to scan using this laptop where I don't have to physically connect it to the scanner.  I am completely lost with Mac.

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580 - Yellow Ink Cartridge keeps popping out although it's brand new.

    Hello,
    I have had this officejet printer for about 4 years. I have never had a serious problem until now. A few days ago I replaced the yellow ink cartridge (88XL) because the ink indicator showed it as being completely empty. After replacing the cartridge with a brand new cartridge from OfficeMax, the cartridge pops out while I'm trying to print or copy something and the displays says that the yellow cartridge's ink level is not enough and needs to be replaced.
    It seems at first glance that this is a mechanical problem concerning the yellow ink slot; however, I'm not sure. Or I suppose the problem could be related to the cartridge itself. To get around this problem, I've held down the cartridge and stuck a small pencil in the opening where the small latch of the "ink cartridge compartment cover" normally goes in. That way I've been able to print, but it's really a hassle. And honestly I don't think this is the real solution to the problem.
    If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, I'd like to hear from you. Please let me know as soon as possible. Worst comes to worst I will have to go out and buy another printer.

  • Unable to access Apps on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

    Hi guys,
    I can print wirelessly and print remotely using the ePrint apps on my iphone and ipad.  Until recently, I have been able to access the apps, but this has stopped. I now get the following error message: 
    "The printer was unable to connect to the server. Chieck your internet connection and try again."
    The internet connection is stable and fine. Any ideas?
    This question was solved.

    Hello londonlaw,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    Sorry to hear about the recent issue when trying to access apps on  your Officejet Pro 8600, I would like to offer a few suggestions that may help.
    Check for updates on the printer, Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates.
    Power off the printer and ensure the power cord is connected to a wall out let.
    Next you want to power reset the router. If it has a power button press that, if not, remove the power cord. Wait 60 seconds and then allow it to power back up. Once router is fully on, power up the printer.
    Try to access an app, if it works there is no need to continue. If it doesn't, try the next suggestion.
    Refer to this Thread answered by a colleague of mine happytohelp01 : Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint several times. Follow the steps to setup a Manual I.P and DNS for the printer over the network. The steps will be the same, if not very similar for your printer as the one in the above post.
    Try to an app once done, if still unable, continue below.
    Go back to the above Thread, rather than using the DNS suggested try this set; Primary DNS Server : 209.244.0.3 & Secondary DNS Server : 209.244.0.4.
    Try to access an app, if the feature is still not working you will need to call HP's Cloud Support team. If you live in the USA/Canada, 1-855-785-2777. If you live outside the USA/Canada, click HERE to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
    I hope this has helped, if it has, please let me know what step helped.

  • I can't find a driver for HP Officejet Pro L7580.

    Updated my system to Windows 7 after years of using Vista.  Now I can't use my HP Officejet Pro L7580 because it can't find a driver to install.   Every tab says that the device is working perfectly.  I have removed all HP software...turned it off everything...rebooted...reloaded and still the message says that driver is missing and can't find it on the HP website.  It also said that it doesn't have permission to update drivers.  When checking that area....thats' wrong.  Updates are always automatic without permission per that tab you open to change settings.  I can't see the problem/solution anymore...can anyone else?

  • HP Officejet Pro L7580-Will not print black ink after I have replaced cartridge.

    I Have an Officejet Pro L7580. It worked fine until I replaced the black ink cartridge. After replacing it I cannot print in black. I printed 1 or 2 sheets when first replaced-then it stopped (only the black will not print). After a hard reset it printed 1 or 2 sheets then stopped (printing the black). The quality test page did not print any black and there were globs of black ink on the page. The color prints fine and it show a full black cartridge. Followed multiple troubleshooting steps, to no avail. 

    Hi melissaccss,
    I see you have replaced a cartridge and can no longer print black ink. I appreciate the troubleshooting you have done so far, but please take a look at the following document to see if you have done all that can be done; Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems.
    If the issue persists, I recommend calling HP and letting the know the issue as well as the steps you have already completed. It may be helpful to even let them know you completed all of the steps in HP document #c01957673.
    If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    I hope this helps.

  • After upgrading to 10.8 my HP Officejet Pro L7580 wont work at all?

    When using lion my network HP Officejet pro L7580 worked seamlessly. After upgrading to Mountain Lion it only sees it as a fax. I can set it up as an IP printer but this is a multifunction printer and I can no longer use preview or image capture to scan.
    I have tried everything I could find on the subject but to no avail. The printer is even listed on the HP website as one compatible with Mountain Lion.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Greetings Bill,
    Is your printer connected via USB?
    Try disconnecting the printer, removing it from your printer list via the "-" key, then plugging it in via USB.
    It should prompt an automatic download of drivers if you are connected to the internet.

  • Officejet Pro L7580 connected to home network won't work after working for several years

    My Officejet Pro L7580 would not scan today.  This happens all the time, but today rebooting, uninstalling, and reinstalling did not work.  I finally got it to work by disconnecting it from my local network and using the usb cable.  I am running windows 7 (64bit).  When i ran the scan diagnostic program, it could not connect to my computer, but the home network diagnostic says everything is ok.  The message I get when i try to scan a document is this: "The scan cannot be performed because another program or computer is using the networked HP imaging device. Try again later."

    Hi Anti-Phish,
    Thank you for your reply, and you as well Captain.  I did very carefully follow the process outlined in that post and I've actually gone through it several times to make sure I didn't goof up or miss a step - but no luck.
    Everytime I connect the coax on the secondary router, the primary router DHCP connection to verizon disconnects and never re-establishes itself.  Although, everything else on the internal network side seems to be working like a champ!
    I'm beginning to wonder if the intructions are applicable to the software on my router.  The procedure refers to a connection labeled "Broadband Coax" but my software refers to it as "Broadband Connection (Ethernet/Coax)".  Eitherway, I still disabled it and the PPPoE connection.
    If you've got some ideas and want to be a second set of eyes, I would be happy to share some screen shots of my primary and secondary routers.
    Here is the screenshot of my primary router "Network Connections" screen - the secondary router looks identical - in terms of the labels it uses, but keep in mind that after I complete the process on it - the status for the Broadband entry and the PPPoE entry read "Disabled".

    The L7580 is connected via Ethernet to a 2nd PC w/ Win 7 Home Premium w/SP1 & fairly current MS updates.
    I have been using the above setup for 2+ years along with HP Solution Center for scanning, printing from either PC without any problems.
    Then I upgraded the Verizon router to have WPA2 security about 6/2/14.  I am able to print as I have done before but HP Solution center gave me an error msg:
    Solution Center cannot run because installation is not complete.   Would like to be able to post a jpg.
    1. Based on some review of forums, I reinstalled the L7580 using complete download, rebooted - received same error msg when openning HP Solution Center.
    2. I  uninstalled HP Solution Center, rebooted.  Installed the complete L7580 packge, rebooted.  HP Solution Center was not installed. Can print as I have before.

    Help!  I have an OfficeJet Pro L7580  and the ink was running dry on the black and yellow.  I replaced the ink, but now it still will not print.  It says there is a problem with the yellow and black print heads.   Question is where do I get them and how much do they cost and will that fix my problem?  I have found them in my computer and can take them out with no problem, just don't know how to get new ones!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printer series - A809 Slow Response to Word Print

    Hello,
    When I try to print from a Word Document the HP Officejet Pro 8000 Printer series - A809 Printer takes on average 1:24 to respond and print. When I go into the printer's settings and print a test page the Printer takes about 3 seconds to respond and print the document. The Printer has a Dual Side Printing add on and the optional paper tray.
    Do you know what could cause such a long delay for the printer, especially when it only happens with word and other Microsoft Works Programs?

    I would also like to add that I am on a Mac OS X Version 10.6.4 with plenty of processing speed and Memory in case that would be useful in helping me
