Cannot Print with HP L7680 (new) printer

Hi there,
I printed fine for the past several months with Tiger, but with Leopard I cannot access my printer and this is urgent. I see many similar posts here. This printer was purchased new at Best Buy only a few months ago and works great, until now. I was able print 1-2 pages here are there after hitting numerous buttons, but it just doesn't work at all anymore. I have no idea why. A friend with Leopard used to come to my place and print and she can't access it anymore either.
Thanks for any tips.

That's correct, I did the normal install of Leopard and never installed any HP drivers. Actually I never installed any HP drivers with Tiger either and it has been working fine until I put Leopard in. Not sure what to do, but I have never put a driver in for my HP printer....its not even connected, it just worked with my wireless network perfectly from day one....until now.

Cannot boot with PXE on new Intel I217-LM nic card

I imaged a new Dell 5540 with nic I-218LM perfectly by inserting the driver.
After that I did the same with the Lenovo T540p with nic I-217LM which is the same driver "E1D6232.inf" and when I boot into PXE (after changing bios to UEFI network to both or legacy) it finds the SCCM/WDS server and finds the advertisement.
It asks me to press F12, I press it but it doesn't react and the following line is: "PXE-MOF: Exiting Intel Boot Agent". So I find this weird, it's like the key F12 doesn't work. Is there a way to see if this key works?
Does anybody know why it's not going furthur? The correct driver seems to be injected into the boot image. I am using the driver from the lenovo website in the Windows OS after Winpe stage.

After much frustration trying to get the drivers to install for a winpe boot image I found that the issue was it couldn't find the files to copy. The inf file does not tell the install where to find the driver files. Instead it was trying to find them
in x:\windows\inf\ not where they are installed in the pe image simple fix was to copy the files into the windows inf folder and now the drivers install correctly.
I found this by hitting shift-F10 and the running notepad and opened the x:\windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log file, the source path for the driver points to x:\windows\inf (see below)
\machine.inf_amd64_neutral_9e6bb86c3b39a3e9\machine.inf' ([strings])
! sto: Skipping missing driver package file 'e1d62x64.sys'.

My Iphone 4 appears this massage "this accessory may not be supported" and then cannot charging with apple (old & new also) genuine cable

Since updating to iOS 7.0.4 I've getting a prompt "this accessory may not be supported" after a few minutes charging.
Charging then stops and I've unplug the cable and reconnect, then hopefully get another 5 minutes before the message appears again. The phone is pretty much unusable now as I can't get it charged. Only using genuine apple cables (have tried 3 seperate cables) and have tried charging both via the wall and the laptop, but the result is the same.

Yes Doctor9fan. All Accessories are genuine.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're users here and do not speak for "Apple Inc."
Some basic printer troubleshooting steps before worrying about a printer driver:
1. Have you tried turning the printer off and back on?
2A. Is the printer attached with a cable?
     If yes, have you tried unplugging and re-plugging both ends of the printer cable?
     If that does not help, can you test the printer with another cable?
2B. If your printer is not connected to the computer with a cable, have you tried restarting your printer (assuming wireless connection)?
     Have you tried restarting your wireless router?
3. Have you tried restarting your MacBook? (Be sure to save your work first.)
4. Does the printer have ink? (Doesn't usually generate a 'communications error' though)
5. Have you updated OS X or the program you're trying to print from recently?

Recently bought new printer. All works fine with one OSX user. However, cannot print anything on other OSX user, including cannot print Adobe PDFs or to new printer. Puzzling!

computer = Mac PowerPC G5
OS = 10.4.11
Adobe Acrobat 7
HP laserjet M1212nf
I recently bought a new HP printer. I was on an admin user when I installed it. All works fine with this admin account/user. I can print to the HP, print to Adobe PDFs.
However, when I then go over to another user account, I cannot print *anything*. I cannot print to Adobe PDF, cannot print to the new HP. If I try to print an excel file, it says "cannot communicate with the printer" along with some useless suggestions. If I try to print a page on FireFox, nothing happens. That is, sure I get the usual dialog box, click the appropriate choice of printer, click the number of copies, then click the OK button ... and nothing happens. No pdf process is started. Nothing is sent to the HP printer.
The fact that both printer options are not working suggests it is some kind of OS problem, not specific to either printer "device".
Any assistance is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi BDAqua,
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm a bit leery of trying that. I would think that if the driver was not installed, then none of my users could use the printer. However, both admin users can use the new printer. The list of available printers is:
Adobe PDF 7.0
New HP Printer
I also used to have Old HP Printer, which I removed. Before, Users A, B and C could use both the Adobe PDF and the Old HP printers. Then, after I added the New HP Printer, it showed up in the list of printers for all three users. However, after I added the new printer, only the two admin accounts, users A and C, can actually print anything. Both users A and C can use the Adobe PDF printer AND the New HP Printer. But I get error messages with user B, for both the Adobe PDF printer and the New HP Printer.

Cannot print remotely with new Wireless HP Officejet 4630

My old HP printer died last week, which is okay because I was in need of a new one. I chose the HP Officejet 4630 because it had the wireless printing option and was a 4-in-1. I work from home and I remote in to my office computer in another location. With my old hp printer, I was able to print but was connected with a USB cable. With this new wireless printer I cannot print from my remote location. I have tried a few times, restarted the computer and printer but it still does not print. I am able to choose my printer when I am logged into my work computer remotely. This is a big issue as I need to print reports at home from my computer at work. I am using Windows 7 and I've printed the wireless network test results which came back A-OK. Has anyone else had this issue and figured out how to print? When I look at the printer queue there is nothing...
Please Help!
Thanks

I just want to add that I am able to print wirelessly from my computer but not when I am remoting in to my work computer.

OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system

I have upgraded to Pages 5.0.1 and now I cannot print or pass along "comments" in the text of a document. I previously was able to convert the Pages document, with comments, to a "Word" document so that others could view the edited text. How do I do that?

When you installed Pages v5, it automatically moved the older Pages ’09 v4.3 into /Applications/iWork '09 folder. If you want normal comment interoperability, you are advised to resume using the older version of Pages. Newer, is certainly not better with Pages v5.

HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09

Hi, everybody!
I got a huge problem for me that the HP Color Laserjet 1600 cannot print in color with Pages 09 after I upgrade to 10.6.1. It worked very well in 10.5.8. Since there is no official driver from HP website for 1600, so I used foomatic/foo2hp as the driver.
It is very strange that I can print in color with Safari and Preview in 10.6.1, but cannot with Pages 09. When I print with Pages 09, it always shows that the print job was completed but my printer was nothing happened.
I just re-install the 10.6 OS "complete new", install the printer driver with the instructions on this forum.
It would be high appreciated if somebody can help me on it!

Why doesn't MAC just give us the driver for the HP Color Laserjet 1600? It's one of the most popular home based business laserjets. It's the one I use and a lot of other people in business use it so I'm at a loss as to why they don't.
I bought my MAC Pro tower for video editing and I can't print from it and have had to reinstall the OS on it once already because Safari wouldn't open a window. So much for the MAc advertising statement of "We're so much easier to use."
After spending close to $10,000 on MAC equipment, Tower, Laptop, Monitor, etc. if they think I'm going to spend more for a new printer just because I can't get a driver to print they're thinking wrong. I going to re-think my new cell phone purchase too. Has anyone had software issuses with their phones before I go out and buy one?

Cannot print or scan with USB printer over wifi from airport express / time capsule wifi

Hi everybody,
I have recently set up time capsule connected to the router from the telephone company but created a new wifi network for the time machine to better work. Now I have bought an airport express to be able to use my USB printer over the WIFI network. I have to laptops, the printing works fine over the mac book air but not over the macbook pro. On top of that I cannot scan with either of the devices.
I have scanned most of the information out there but this issue seems not to be addressed properly anywhere. Advices given do always repeat itself but no solution worked for me.
Now I have plugged the usb from the printer directly back into mac book pro and the problem seems to persist here too. The message I receive everywhere is this one:
The software for the printer was installed incorrectly.
Would you like it to be repaired?
When I hit the Repair button a notice says 'repairing permissions' but nothing really happens. In the end nothing has been printed.
Resetting the printing systems has not really changed anything either. The problems persist.
This is the screen I get when the printer is directly plugged in through USB:
Result: printer recognised and installed, I cannot print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly), but I can scan (probably because of the hint ('multifunction')
When I try to install the printer through the network connection (wifi network over time capsule and airport express) I get this image:
Result: printer recognised over bonjour but without multifunction (in other words without scanning), I cannot scan nor print (The software for the printer was installed incorrectly)
As I already mentioned any solution I found online would not work. Now the qustions are:
1) why can't I print? The drivers seem to be there but somehow broken, and I don't know how to repair it
2) why can't I scan over wifi? It sould possible that any function that can be performed over cable should also be able to performable over air, right?
I would very much appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you in advance,
Cris

What's up doc?
HP has not provided "network" drivers to allow advanced features when the the All-in-One is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
Therefore, only the printing function is supported when the All-in-One is connected to the Time Capsule's USB port.
If you need advanced features like fax, copy, scan, maintenance etc., you will need to connect over the WiFI network, or connect the All-in-One directly to your computer.

Cannot print to pdf with Acrobat 8

I have just gotten a new laptop and moved my CS2 over to it. Everything works fine except I cannot print to a pdf like I used to. I can save as a pdf, but when I print to Adobe pdf, the printer icon pops up in the system tray. When I click on it, the window displays the print job with status: Error-sent to printer. It's the same thing when I try to print a web page or a Word document to a pdf.
By the way, this version of CS2 came with Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 and Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 on seperate disks from the CS2 installation disks. Thanks in advance for the help.

And by the way, I did look at my startup folder. The following items are checked:
Adobe Acrobat Speed Launcher
Adobe Acrobat Sychronizer
Adobe Systems, Inc. Gamma Loader
AcroTray - Adobe Acrobat Distiller helper application

MAC OS 10.9 some users cannot print to new Ricoh MP C6502 print job is holding for authentication and cannot figure out why

I have a few IMAC and G5 users who have OS10.9 who cannot print to a new Richoh MP C6502, I downloaded and installed the new PS driver and it works on some systems but I have 3 people that goes right to Hold for Authentication. I tried deleting everything associated with this in keychain access and after I did this it comes up to enter a password and it accepts the network login credentials but still holds the print job. I even tried using guest as login and password as someone suggested but still cannot print any ideas on why?

I apologize for the delay in responding to you. I was on the road all day yesterday.
OK. I switched the printer's Ethernet cable to a Linksys Switch (Model EZX S55W) that's part of this local network. That did not work. I swapped out the cable for one that I know works. Still no change. I switched the printer's Ethernet cable directly to a port on the router. No change. I even swapped cables here, too, but no success.
As I was doing all this, I was wondering: When I select the HP P1606dn printer in the Print and Fax "Add" dialog box, (see the image below) and the Print Using pulldown menu displays "Please select a driver or printer model" and the message "Searching for new drivers" appears under it (with the spinning wheel), why is it that the Ethernet connection to printer is critical to "finding" a new (printer) driver?
Isn't the utility searching through my system and libraries looking for a printer driver app for the printer that I identified/selected in the dialog box?
After all, if the dialog box lists the printer among those to choose from, hasn't the utility already discovered the printer via the Ethernet connection?

Uninstalled epson printer from control panel...installed new brother printer....now i cannot print anything .pdf old or newly downloaded

uninstalled epson printer from control panel...installed new brother printer....now i cannot print anything .pdf old or newly downloaded@

For starters, what exactly do you mean by "cannot print"?
Are you getting an error message? Are you trying to print from within Reader or are you opening these in the browser? What version of Reader. Even though it's a new printer, the drivers that came with it (or the ones that were already on your computer) may be old so, have you downloaded the most recent drivers from the Brother site?

Cannot Print with Acrobat Standard X

Also, the Printer Properties button and Page Setup buttons do not work. They are not disabled (greyed out), they just don't launch these functions.
I appreciate any help!

MG3250 Printer throws up error message - Scangear cannot communicate with scanner for these reasons

Hi
I have an MG 3250 printer running off an HP Pavilion Laptop using Windows 8.1. Every time I try to scan I get an error message that 'cannot communicate with scanner for these reasons...........etc'. The only way I can get the printer / scanner to work is by going through the Control Panel / Hardware & Printers route. This seems terribly slow and time consuming. What is wrong and what needs to be done to correct the problem?
Thanks

I have the exact same problem as you with my new Canon LiDE 120. The errors I get are: 2, 156, 182, 55 and sometimes 77 when using it on my Windows 8.1 (64 Bit) desktop PC. I have tried installing and uninstalling the drivers multiple times, used different ports and still nothing. It does however work properly on a Windows 7 device.
My PC's specification is as follows:
Windows 8.1 (64 Bit) - With latest updates
Avast Premier
Malwarebytes
ASUS z87 Pro
Intel 4770k
ASUS GTX 670 (4GB)
8GB 1600MHz Kingston RAM
Things I have done
Tried different ports (USB 2.0 and 3.0)
Installed all software & driver from CD
Installed all software & driver from Canon Website
Installed only the latest driver from Canon Website (April 2015)
Tried to use Windows Fax & Scan, Scan, IJ Scan Utility, Scangear and Vuescan.
What happens
The physical buttons on the device are unresponsive
The computer says it is warming up, but nothing happens
It starts to scan for a few seconds and then comes to an abrupt end - this can happen at 10% of the scan or even at 91%.
Surely the problem cannot be with Windows 8.1 since the device was only released last year. What could be the issue? I called their support line and was advised to clear the drivers of previous scanners used by my system, I did this and there still is no change. Could somebody please help me!
