Error Message in Print Queue (HP 5440, Windows 7)

Anytime I try to print any document, it delays for about a minute than it says Error - Printing. There's no specific error ever mentioned. It happens regarless of the type of document I'm printing. The test print has the same result. I'm running Windows 7. The printer previously printed fine. The only changes I am aware of are that I changed the ink and the USB plugs have been unplugged.
I followed the troubleshoot guide listed here, with no success.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02205477&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc...
I'm at a loss to figure out what the problem is. Anyone have any ideas?

bump, anyone. This reached page three without any speculation. I was hoping there was some kind of common error that doesn't get accounted for. I should point out the only step I did not follow on that troubleshoot guide was to uninstall and reinstall the software. The software wasn't listed as being on my computer when I tried that step, so I couldn't follow through. I'm guessing that has to do with my USB install and the fact that I downloaded the drivers from the internet, but this is something that a lot of people do. Plus it worked previously.

I cannot print from Websites or my college online course. Tries to save files to desktop as an .xps document but nothing happens and I get an error message that print command did not work. Have reinstalled firefox and adobe, no help. Any suggestions?

Cannot print anything from internet using Firefox as browser. Please advise. I have to use Firefox for internet college courses, cannot print my assignments. I do not have this problem on Mac or using Internet Explorer. Only happens when using Firefox. When I select print a message comes up to save information to desktop as .xps file. Select save, sometimes it is on the desktop but I cannot open the file or it simply does not save file and get an error message that print command failed. What is happening?

{Ctrl + P} and select your printer in the Printer - Name box near the top of that window.

Hi, I have 10.6.8 and an HP printer so it may be slightly different but I'll give it my best shot:
Go to System Preferences.
Click on "Print & Fax"
Near the top of that page you should see "Print" and "Scan" options. Click "Scan"
A button appears that says "open scanner"
The settings are different between the different scanner models so I'm not sure what the next window will look like, but it should be pretty straightforward from there. It will scan to a JPEG image which you can attach to an email. I hope that helps! Let me know if there's anything ense I can help with.

Photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

frustrated! photoshop elements 13 will not print to my new epson wf-7620 error message;default printer could not be opened

I haven't been able to try this fix, but someone emailed me the below fix:
I had same problem.Elements13 would not open my new default printer, but worked ok on four other versions of Elements. No help from Adobe, after three days of searching & phoning adobe , I found out by:- Going into Elements 13, Press Edit button, down to "Preferences and across to general. Press the "Reset Preferences on next launch". I then suggest you go through each section to make sure that your chosen preference are still ticked/checked in.
It worked for me. Hope same for you.
I'm planning on trying this fix soon. Let me know how it goes for you if you get to try it before me. Will do the same. Thanks,
Chad

Did recent recommended update cause incompatibility with HP printer, causing error message and printer to print blank pages?

did recent recommended update cause incompatibility with HP printer, causing error message and printer to print blank pages?

Why not contact HP tech support for assistance since they make the printer. While on their site you can look for an updated printer driver. Otherwise, try deleting the current installed driver, reset the print system, then reinstall your printer's driver.

"Communication Error" message when printer is the AirPort-connected

After two years of using (and hundreds of pages printed), the printing on the Epson Stylus Photo R340, connected to the AirPort Express ('n' edition) ends just after a few centimeters of printing (now it's in 100% cases), showing one of the error messages below:
- Printer paused (resuming/re-pausing leads to no further progress). In this case the printer is sometimes paused also un System Preferences > Print & Fax, but resuming in this level again leads to no progress
- Printer shows "Communucation Error"
- Printing dialog shows no error or pausing, but the result is the same as above
Removing the print task in printing dialog doesn't have any influence on the printer. In all these cases it's necessary to turn off the printer to start from the beginning.
When the printer is connected straight to the computer via USB cable, it prints as expected.
There were no software installations recently, except Apple system updates via Software Update.
Does it mean that Apple kisses the air printing goodbye or there's still hope to fix it?
Thanks for any ideas

Hello Syd,
thanks a lot for your suggestions. I appreciate Epson is monitoring forums like this! As I wrote above though, some of them I mentioned as performed (printer connected straight to USB port of the Mac). I also several times erased all the printers and added them again fresh, but unfortunately all still the same.
Just a few weeks ago, I printed a few dozens of pages and this happened after every about 20 pages and after printer restart, I was able to continue. Since I started this topic, the printer will not finish any single page over the AirPort Express, but prints fine when connected directly to the mac via USB.
I just don't want to bring it across the house (yes, I know I can share it on one computer for the others, but there's no room near the computer I work on and in addition, it worked before...).
So it looks like bad luck for me so far...

Error message "The printer requires Intervention" on Windows 8.1

I have Windows 8.1 and get an error message every time I send a print job. The jobs just sit in the print queue. The message says that intervention is required. We are using the wireless option. We have other computers that run Windows 7 and they are NOT having this problem. Has anyone else run into this issue? Does anyone know how to fix it? I have tried unistalling and reinstalling already.

Hello there @AndyG74
Welcome to the forums!
I understand you are running Windows 8.1, and when you send a print job, you are seeing an error and the print job sits in the print queue, without printing it out. As your Windows 7 systems run and print fine, this would seem to be more of a software problem with the Windows 8.1 system and not the printer hardware.
My suggestions to you, would be to try running the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results. Please save a screen shot of the results and post them back for me to review.
Also, try printing from Notepad and let me know if that works.
If the printing issue seems to be solely within one program, include that information too!
Thank you,

Strange error message when printing to PDF

I am surprised that no one else has reported this issue. Searching the net, I found only one other mention of it. Using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2, when printing a document from any application using the Adobe PDF printer, the document will print correctly; however, the printer icon with a question mark will appear in the system tray and the error message "This document failed to print" will appear. When I open the Adobe PDF printer, the document is there with the status "Error - Printing".
I can successfully delete the document (with error), though the actual .pdf document is created just fine; it is just returning an error and holding the document after every print. I have tried deleting the Adobe PDF printer, reinstalling Acrobat (both using a repair installation as well as uninstalling and reinstalling) all with the same results.
There is nothing being logged into the system or application logs, either. I have seen this happen with two OSs at work, Vista Home Premium and WinXP SP3. Can someone guide me to a solution?

Well I can give you what I did to get around the problem. I am running Adobe X pro on windows 7.
1. The print job in queue, cancel it so that it is deleted. You now should have no jobs pending.
2. Go to Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers(Win7) or just the printer and devices for your OS. Yes this must be done with Admin privilages.
3. Go to Printer Properties for the Adobe PDF printer.
4. Select the ports tab. Mine was on Com3.
5. Select Add a Port and call it Adobe Printer or something.
6. Select the check box and select apply.
You should now print with no errors.

Yes I am aware this has been a year, but this has happened over several versions.

Spooler SubSystem App error message when printing

I am having troubles printing with my HP Photosmart C4450 printer. The printer will not finish printing a job and will come up with the "Spooler SubSystem App" error message. The printer remains "frozen" after this message appears on my computer. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the printer witht the latest driver, downloading all the associated updates and running the HP Print Diagnostic tool to no avail. The spooler is indeed set to automatic and is started. I am running Windows XP on my computer. Any insight into this problem is appreciated. Thank you.

Have you tried with system PLD?
Thanks,

Scanner in use error message. Print and scan doctor page not found

I have an officejet pro 8500a which is giving an error message: scanner in use. it frequently does this and I reboot computer, turn off router and prnter and then turn all back on again and it usually works. This time it won't. I was directed to download the print and scan doctor but whether I enter the address in the url or click on the link I am directed to a page saying that it is not found. What else can I do besides throw this through the window?

Hello @trishdg and welcome to the HP Forums!
Which operating system is on the computer you use the printer with?
If you make a Copy (as that uses the scanner) do you get any errors that indicate the scanner is in use then?
This Print and Scan Doctor link will start the download for you right away (meaning it doesn't take you to a page, that link starts the download as soon as you click on it ) so you won't feel the need to through anything out the window
Let me know how those steps go, and we will go from there!
