Can't print from Intel Mac w/Snow Leopard to HP 2600

Can't print from Intel Mac w/Snow Leopard to HP 2600. Upgraded from OS 10.4 and printer showed on printer list along with an Epson scanner. but continually shows printer as offline. I finally deleted the HP Color Laserjet 2600n from the printer list. When I attempted to re-install it, it doesn't find the printer at all. I haven't attempted to use the scanner. I also went to HP and downloaded the driver, no luck. I've restarted the computer multiple times, tried it with the printer on, and printer off, as well as pulled the usb cable in and out both ends. No error message on the printer display and it gpes through normal warmup until it shows the green light. I run software update and it shows no updates needed. Help!

When you press print the first window is pretty basic.
When you select print on that the next window should have an advanced option.
Click that and see if any of the options in the 3rd dropdown box allow you to specify the 'paper tray'.
AC "
In this new windaow, click "advanced", go to "paper type/quality" and choose " best" and a photo paper. Then you will be able to choose a paper source (photo tray).
Once you have these settings, under presets do "save as", and you can choose the preset instead of going to advanced.
If you have the latest software and drivers downloaded from HP, this will work.

Can i print from my mac to a win 7 printer?

I have done a search and was unable to find the answer to my question. I have tried to figure out how to print from my MBP to my wifes printer that is attached to her windows 7 computer. I am able to print to that printer over the network with a windows computer but not my mac.
Does anyone know how to get this done or if it is even possible?

Printing from your Mac to a printer attached to a WIndows 7 printer can indeed be done.
It use to be quite easy under Windows XP or even Vista, But Microsoft changed the SMB code in Windows 7, making it more of a headache.
Here is how to share your Windows 7 printer:

I can't print from my Mac wirelessly

I have to use the cord to print from my Mac. But surprisingly others in my home can print to the HP Office Jet Pro 8600. What gives?

Hi MaryEtta, and welcome to the HP Forums!
I see you are having issues printing. I would like to help.
I am including a document to help determine whch version of the Mac OS you are using:
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once you have deleted it, I would suggest verifying and repairing the disk permissions: About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions feature.
I would also suggest running your Apple updates: OS X: Updating OS X and Mac App Store apps
After the updates, I would recommend reinstalling the HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer - N911a Drivers.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

Is anyone able to print from intel Mac using HP photosmart 7350?

I am trying to setup an intel 24" iMac, running OS 10.4.8 or 10.4.10, to print to an HP photosmart 7350. Printer works fine from an old PPC Mac, running 10.4.8, and other printers working fine from the iMac.
I'm moderately Mac-savvy, having had one or more on my desk for the last twenty years, and have exhausted my litany of workarounds, reinstalls, reboots etc etc etc.
Printer doesn't appear to be supported in intel OS install for 10.4.8+.
Has anyone actually got an HP photosmart 7350 printing from an intel Mac? If so i'd appreciate your advice on how you achieved this.
Cheers
Dougal

Alas no joy.
I've installed and played-around-with the gutenprint drivers and I can 'see' and select them to drive the printer. I have not yet managed to get a half-decent print out of them. Either nothing happens, or the paper tractors right through the printer with no print added, or some of the image is printed compressed in on itself in the upper cm of the page.
At least they are communicating with the printer.
I think I'll plug the photosmart 7350 into the old PPC Mac and transport files over to that box for printing colour.
Thanks for the lead, an area I've not explored before.
Cheers

Can't print from my mac mini on a home network

My husband died suddenly and has left me with a load of networking problems. Everything was fine (I think) until I changed my ISP. My husband had set up our printers on a wired network, and I know wires go in and out of machines and routers, but there is a lot of physical rubbish about that trying to find how it all fits togther isn't easy.
He worked everything from his computer, a Mac Air (bought January 2011) running 10.8.3. I have a Mac mini (bought August 2012) running 10.8.2, so it looks like I'm just sluggish without him to prod me to get updated.
I can print from the Air, but I can't from my mini. Do I need to have file sharing, do I need a location code or something, if so, what is the location I should use? He knew all this amd we were going to sit down and make a manual for me as the techie thickie, but his cancer suddenly took a turn for the worse and he died suddenly and unexpectedly before we could sort it out.
I am fairly computer literate, htough I'm not the cleverest at computers, but I am streets ahead of many at the office, some of whom don't even know what a key stroke is, honest!
Thanks
Tim

I assume these are Ethernet cables running to the Routers.

Can't print from my mac to my HP Colour Laserjet 1600

I have a HP Colour Laserjet 1600. Whenever I print anything from my mac, a icon appears in the dock but, disappears after about 5 seconds and nothing gets printed. Can someone please tell me what I can do?

The third party HPIJS drivers do not support the LaserJet 1600 on a Mac. You can view the list of printers that are supported by the HPIJS drivers at http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/hpijs# Printers.
There are third party drivers that do support the LaserJet 1600, but there are no Mac installer packages available for them. You would have to compile them from source code. These foo2hp drivers can be found at http://foo2hp.rkkda.com/.

Can i install bootcamp on mac mini snow leopard server 2010

hello,there are 2 harddisks on a mac mini server 2010 (snow leopard server.)i want to use the other hdd for installing Windows home server 2011 x64 .
but there is no bootcamp on the server.(do i have to download it?)
how can i do this,or do i have to use parallels desktop.
i have also a mac mini and a macbook pro and an alienware and a clevo laptop so i want the 2 servers seperate(and the mac-server on all the time)

You would need to install SL (non sever) on you Mac Mini Server.
You may be able to install the nonsever version on your 2nd HDD
-Partition you 2nd HDD to the max BootCamp Partition
-Install Windows Home Server on the BootCamp Partition (don't know of Windows Server is supported)
So you would have:
hdd1 - SnowLeopard Server
hdd2 - SnowLeopard (non-server) + Bootcamp Partition
Scenario 2:
If you don't have a need for SL Server SW, then wipe out the system and put only the regular SL (non sever) on disk 1. Partition Disk2 for Bootcamp only.
hdd1- SL (non-sever)
hdd2 - Bootcamp
I really don't know if you can copy the Bootcamp app onto SL Server OS to create a Bootcamp partition.

Officejet Pro 8600 wireless print option with Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

Hi My 'old' 8600 printer died and I purchased a new one. I did not set up wireless communication with the old printer but am interested in doing so with this new one, or at least having that option.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. The installation CD that came with the new printer says it's for OS X v10.6, Lion or Mountain Lion. Is it compatible with my system?
Thanks!

Hello KelliMK, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are looking into compatibility information. The Officejet Pro 8600 is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6. The software disc should allow the full install without issue.
As for the wireless setup, I would recommend following this document on HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-One Printer Series - Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or W...
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

Printing from Lightroom 2 with Snow Leopard OS

I have used Lightroom 2 and printed satisfactorily with Epson Stylus Pro 4000 with Leopard OS. I have now upgraded to Snow Leopard, and using the latest driver for the Epson 4000, the prints come out very dark with both printer and Lightroom color management. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your suggestions. I have subsequently talked to the Epson Support representative and he said to watch the current drivers for Epson since apparently there may be some Epson driver updates. I do not know whether any will be a resolution of the problem I continually have with the Epson Stylus Pro 4000 however. Interesting, I printed an image using CS4 today, and out of frustration, I set the mode as "automatic" under the Print Settings in the Print Box. It came out very close to the screen rendering, and was not dark like the images printed under the Photoshop settings and the other printer driver settings. I have never used the "automatic" before since I normally use the ICC profiles for the paper and ink from Epson. Under Leopard, prior to converting to Snow Leopard, the Photoshop/ICC profiles did not render proper color either, and I used "ColorSync" as a custom setting under the Print Box, and it was the best of the settings. In any event, nothing seems to fully work under the current combinations with CS4, Lightroom2, Epson, and Snow Leopard. Unfortunately, the best settings under my former PC setup render the worst possible prints under Snow Leopard.

Can't print from IndesignCS2 since upgrade to Leopard

Like it says in the title, since I got upgraded to Leopard, my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 printer won't print correctly from Indesign.
If I set a job to print, the top 1" or so (on A4 pages) is cropped off, with a corresponding strip of white at the bottom of the page. Printing to A3 the top 6" and everything wider than A4 width gets cropped off.
Seems to print OK from Photoshop and Acrobat though.
I've upgraded the drivers to the Leopard ones from the Epson Download site.
Anyone got and ideas, or is it time to junk a 1 year old printer?

Depending on how badly you want to keep the printer, you also just export as PDF and print from Acrobat? But basically, CS2 is not super compatible with Leopard and never will be, so you kind of have to make do with what you can get. (For example, I have never been able to "Hide" CS2 on the Leopard MacBook here.)

Problems printing from Epson RX500 in Snow Leopard

I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro. I downloaded the software update for my Epson photo RX500. Every time I try to print, I get an error message which says "/System/Library/Printers/Libraries/PrintJobMgr/Contents/MacOS/PrintJobMgr failed" Does anyone know what this means, and more importantly, how to fix it? Thanks for any ideas.

I too have an Epson Stylus Photo RX500. Also just bought the new iMac with Snow Leopard. I downloaded Apple’s driver and it was installed by the system. The printer and copying are working just fine, BUT I cannot get the software for the scan to open. It comes to the dock, bounces, then disappears. I went to the Epson web site, but didn’t see any help there. It does seem that Epson has given up supporting Apple’s new computers. That, or they are just behind times. :-D I am going to try to send them an e-mail and hope that I get an answer. Frustrating, isn’t it!!

Can I print from multiple Macs?

I have a G4 Quicksilver, a B&W G3, & a clamshell iBook. I use an AirPort Extreme base station with the iBook. My 2 towers are connected to a bridge. (I have a broadband connection). Is there any way I can print to my HP920c from all 3 Macs using the base station (or any way)?
Thanks!

Yes, you should be able to do that.
Depends on system software - need OS X (10.2.3 or higher) to print to AEX.

Should the bluetooth in an ipad 1 recognise bluetooth from a mac mini (snow leopard) or iphone4?

Hello, i have an ipad1 64gb 3g which obviously has bluetooth. When searching devices it has never recognised another device, particularly the mac mini and iphone. Bluetooth is switched on. I would like to eventually be able to wirelessly sync calenders, contacts, photos etc without hard wire connecting. Should this be possible between apple devices???

Not possible with Bluetooth as they don't have the FTP profile (File Transfer Protocol).
WiFi syncing between your computer, or iCloud and your iPad will be available in iOS 5
