Deskjet F4500 all in one can't comminicate wirelessly.

I have an HP Deskjet F4500 all in one wireless printer that I have tried to install on my home network. I used the CD that came with it to install and the computer tells me that it has installed properly. However when sending a document to print, although the small window tells me that the document is printing and then that window goes away, a few minutes later another window appears and tells me that the document failed to print. Some times it tells me that the cartridges need alignment so i go through the procedure and nothing happens; at other times it tells me that there is no communication between the computer and the printer, stil some other tomes it tell me that the printer is offline.
I know the printer is on line by using my NirSoft Wireless Network watcher which lists the computer and the printer and the other computers on the network.
I did uninstall printer using Revo Uninstaller rebooted and then installed the printer again. Checked for software updates from HP. Used the HP Installation Failure guide from HP. Checked the IP address of the printer through the Browser on the computer and it opened the connection with the printer and its properties verifiedthe key on the Security (WPA2) on the router which is a Wireless Broadband Router, verified the MAC address in the MAC filter feature. The printer still does not respond to the printing command same messages back. Computer running Win XP Pro SP3 with all its updates. AMD 64 Processor. 2GB RAM. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated to solve this problem.

OK, now insert the printer CD and run the installer, selecting "Network" installation when it asks. Make sure to NOT have the USB cable installed between your printer and PC when you start the installation. It will ask you to temporarily install the USB cable during the installation.

Post download, the version of the printer driver mentioned for Deskjet F380 is v2.05 and the version for the utility software is 5.24.2 valid till 2015. Now both my HP Deskjet F380 and HP PSC 1310 all-in-one PRINT Thanks HP!

HP PSC 2510 All in One - can't get wireless feature to work with AE

I just got the Airport Extreme 802.11n access point. But I can't get my old HP printer to connect wirelessly. This is an 802.11b device and should be compatible. I can plug it in to the AE and it works, but can't get the wireless feature to work. Any suggestions?

Jimmy5, Welcome to the discussion area!
Personally, I would connect it to one of the LAN port on the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS).
If you do succeed in connecting it wirelessly, it will drag down your wireless speeds.

After upgrading to Mac OS 10.9 My HP Deskjet F4580 all in one printer no longer scans. How can we fix it?

Hi All,
I recently upgraded to Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks, but now my HP Deskjet F4580 All in one printer will not scan any documents either as PDF or as JPG, how can we fix this?

I have simialr problems, after i scanned the ducuments or pictures, i can save it for only once, but the file is just black pictures with many lines through them. When i try to save it again, then it says ''An error has occurred saving the file because it could not be written to. Check the properties for the file to make sure it is not read-only.', which then doesn't allow me to do anything of saving the file or even just to print it out.

how do i setup my hp deskjet 3050 all-in-one printer for wireless printing my operating system is windows7

Unplug the USB cable. Now go to Start > All Programs > Hewlett-Packard > Deskjet 3050 > Add a Device. Run the program and choose Wireless as the installation type.
Follow the directions. It will ask you to connect a USB cable temporarily. Do not connect until it asks and remove it when it tells you.
Finally, when you are done, go to Control Panel > Devices & Printers and delete the USB instance of the printer so you don't get confused when printing.

Printing problem with HP deskjet 3050 all in one J610 series

I have a HP deskjet 3050 all in one J610 series which I am using with Windows Vista Version 6.0 (Build 6006: Service pack 2). Connecting is by USB port. I have not used the printer for some time, but have done all the maintence checks & it is good to go. When I want to print a letter the only thing that gets printed is the email address which is coloured blue. I think the problem is in the settings of the printer features. I can print the letter in gray scale but this is not easy to read and not suitable for business dealings.
I would appreciate help with this problem. A definition of the terms used in the printer features might help me resolve it by my self.
Thanks

Is it possible to connect HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series Wireless printer without USB cable?

my mom recently bought me the HP DESKJET 1510 All-in-One series so i have an at home printer for school work. but when we bought it we did not know there was a certain USB that had to connect to the printer. so we bought the wrong one. now i have a project due and i cannot print. we have a small USB that fits it but its hard to connect it to the computer and printer because its so small. so if we can have it sent to the printer without the USB that would be perfect!

Hi,
No, in many cases printers won't come with USB cables. You need a cable which is similar to the following one:

DESKJET 3050 All-in-one J610 wont do anything

I have a Deskjet 3050 All-In-One J610 Series that won't do anything. I can't get it to print, scan, copy. I have unplugged the power while it was turned on trying to reset the machine but it did nothing for my problem. I know it is not an ink issue because the printer will print out the onboard game pages but that is all it will do. Anybody have any suggestions? Thank you

Hi there dlehr,
Could you provide the community with a little more information to help narrow troubleshooting? What operating system are we using?

HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer driver not installing after upgrading to Windows 7

I have a HP Deskjet F2120 all in one printer. I was working fine in Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
Once I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit the driver is failing to install.
I have tried all the solutions provided on the HP website but none of them worked.
I also wrote a mail to HP support but they replied that its out of warranty hence they will not be able to help.
If some genius can help me I will pray for him/her that all his/her wishes come true.
Thanks you in advance.
Imroz Baig

I just got my HP Deskjet F2120 working in Windows 7. Here's how:
Insert the setup disk in your CD/DVD drive. Choose to view the files in Explorer. Scroll down to the file "Setup," which is identified as an application.
Right-click the file and select "Properties." Click the "Compatibility" tab at the top of the resulting window.
Check off "Run this program in compatability mode for:" and choose "Windows Vista" from the pop-up menu.
ALSO check "Run this program as administrator" at the bottom of the window.
Press "Apply," then "OK."
Now you can double-click the "Setup" file and run the software installer.
It will 100% work inshallah...

The HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 series printer I just bought is not compatible with my Mac Book Pro. What do I need to do?

I recently purchased an HP Deskjet 3050A All-In-One J611 series printer and it is not compatible with the version of the operating system on my mac book pro. I am currently running on OS X 10.4.11 and the printer is compatible with v10.5 or higher. What can I do to update the operating system on my Mac Book Pro?

10.5 will be harder to find & more expensive, I think I'd go for 10.6
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
    * Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
    * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
Apple no longer has it for sale.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It looks like they might still have it...

HP Deskjet 3050A All-in-one printer J611 series - mavericks and wireless set up

Hi
I have a HP Deskjet 3040A All-in-one printer J611, I have had this printer for about 2years and everything worked perfect then I bought an Apple still all was alright but when I updated my software I got Mavericks and ever since then everything went wrong....I have updated my computer and have AirPrint now and also HP ePrint(currently). How ever the printer was not working or connecting.
Problem 1:
When I tried to fix the problem I uninstalled all HP drivers to reinstall - found that you have to install the apple app Done!(Airprint)
The printer was picked up by the computer and I can scan but I can not print, I'm using the USB cable, and when I print the computer shows it is printing and the printers lights come on but nothing happens(no messages display on the printer) then the computer shows the print is done - but the printer didn't print. Scan is working fine.
Problem 2:
Because of constant problems with the wireless connection I wanted to reconnect it to the router - Restore default.
But now because I don't have the HP drivers, I have no idea how to connect it and I tried both connection ways WPS is not working when I press it on the route...nothing happens and the PIN, where are you suppose to enter the pin, nothing comes up on my computer (USB connected)
I have read the installation pages over and over but can't figure out what is wrong, any advice would be appreciated.
This question was solved.

Hi Lilly4,
I can certainly help you get the printer on the network and working again.
Follow the steps in this thread to put the printer on the network without using the software or the WPS button. I believe we have success doing it this way.
If you continue to experience an issue after the printer is on the network, please let me know. Thanks.
Hope this helps.

HP DeskJet 3055A All-In-One Jobs Series margin

Hi,
I recently reinstalled Windows 7 on my laptop and ever since the top margin is too big and bottom margin too small.
I haven't found a setting to correct this.
The drivers are installed from the HP site and are the drivers for the HP DeskJet 3050A All-In-One J611 Series as suggested by the HP site. I ran all the HP Print and Scan doctor and the HP Hardware Diagnose Progranm 4.1.
Does anyone know who I can fix this problem coz this is very annoying:
Everything I print a art of the bottom falls of th page and isn't printed?
Thanks,
Bas

Hi @basf ,
I understand that you are having issues with the top and bottom margins not printing properly. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.
What application are you using?
Check the page setup in the application you are printing from?
Try another application to see if you have the same results.
Here is a document for checking the paper size and paper type settings from the print driver.
Changing Print Settings in Windows 8.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Hi @josedemelo , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand you're experiencing print issues. I would like to help.
Are you able to make a copy without issue?
Are you connected via a USB cable or a wireless connection?
I would recommend performing a power reset on your printer. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would then suggest downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
