Fax works-print doesnt on 6210 all-in-one

I have an Officejet 6210 All-in-One.  I recently sent some faxes successfully, and could not use the printer immediately thereafter.  The fax is still working but there is an error message for scan copy or print  which says  NO CONNECTION--TURN ON CONNECT COMPUTER OR INSTALL/RUN DEVICE SOFTWARE    which I'm not savvy enough to understand or do.  Thanks, irret

Hi can you navigate to the Start menu and then into HP and the HP Solution Center? From within that, select settings (probably on the lower right side of the HP Solution Center screen. In settings, click on Printer Settings where you can change the defaults for your printer.

  • 10.5.1 broke wireless printing to HP 6210 All In One

    That's my educated guess.
    I got a MacBook in Nov. last year. It came with 10.5 pre-installed.
    I disconnected my existing HP 6210 All In One from my wife's blueberry iMac and plugged it into the USB port on our Airport Express.
    Wireless printing worked two or three times. We don't print that much or that often. I was so excited that we could print wirelessly.
    At some point I installed to 10.5.1. Pretty soon actually. Probably less than a month after getting the computer. I'm almost 100% positive that it was AFTER that point that this problem started happening and I've installed 10.5.2 (which was supposed to fix wireless printing issues.) It's still happening. Here's what happens.
    • While connected to the Aiport Express, The printer shows up in the list or printers. Several times I've deleted it and re-added it since this problem started. It shows up as a BonJour printer and it's the only way one can add it. The Mac even picks the right driver.
    • System preferences shows the printer in the printer list, and it shows a green light next to it, and it says "Ready, Idle" (or something to that effect.)
    • I send a print order from say, Safari.
    • The print queue for the HP opens.
    • The print queue shows "Opening printer connection" and "Connecting" and it stays like that for a long time until the queue stops itself. The "Pause printer" button turns into "Resume".
    • If, while the print queue is trying to connect, one plugs in an Ethernet cable into the MacBook, the printer all of a sudden begins printing any and all print orders in the queue. Note that the Ethernet cable is connected to the same Ethernet hub as the Airport Express.
    • One could also send print orders while the Ethernet cable is connected, and this works just fine, but that's not the problem.
    • If, while the print queue is trying to connect, one plugs in the USB cable that is connected to the printer directly into the MacBook, this does absolutely nothing. The print queue just hangs.
    • I went to the HP website, and downloaded what appears to be a new set of drivers, and setup software. Installation went fine, BUT I could not "set up" the printer until I connected the USB cable that is connected to the printer directly into the MacBook. Again, that's not the problem.
    • The HP website also says that Mac OS X 10.5 has the necessary drivers and no installation is needed.
    • The HP website also has a page that lists instructions to set up an HP device on a Wireless network. The instructions involve making sure that the device is set up for wireless capabilities, and connecting to it via BonJour and some other stuff. I can't get very far into this process, because I've been over all the menu options on the printer itself and I can't see anything about wireless setup. I've also looked at the manual (PDF) and there's only one single occurrence of the word "wireless" and it has nothing to do with setup. I forget what it's about right now. It's on the second to last page or somewhere near the very end.
    • So that's where I am right now. New drivers, no printing. It worked with 10.5 and I strongly suspect that 10.5.1 broke it. And that 10.5.2 did not fix it at all.
    • I would like to test my theory by reverting to 10.5 but I've already had to re-install the OS once and recover from a backup once after re-formatting the internal HD. Better not mess with that.
    Any comments and/or questions that would help me fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    Good news. It appears to be fixed!
    Of all the things I've done, I'm convinced that what fixed it was resetting the printing system. A forum linked to from another place I posted this question mention that it helped others. I found how to reset the printing system in Leopard by searching for it online.
    I went to System Preferences > Print & Fax and right clicked on the left had sidebar. The contextual menu had the command "Reset Printing System". This warned me that it would delete all my printers. I said OK. Sure enough all my printers were gone.
    For good measure, did the following:
    - I re-installed the new HP software.
    - I re-set up the HP 6210 while connected directly through USB using the HP setup Assistant. This process adds the printer both as a printer and as a Fax in System Preferences > Print & Fax.
    - I opened the print queue and the utility and print a test page using this direct method.
    - I disconnected the HP 6210 from the computer and connected it to the Airport Express.
    - I went back to System Preferences > Print & Fax and clicked on the plus sign to add another printer
    - (additional note) In the resulting dialog box, I tried adding the printer as an IP printer (using the Airport Express' IP address) but for some reason could not find the right driver (I was looking for one with the term "OfficeJet"--more on that below). I picked a different driver knowingly and got a weird message about the software being incomplete. Sure enough, printing to this new printer added this way with the wrong driver did not work at all. I decided to try the OS's own automatic way to add the printer (see below).
    - In that same dialog window referenced above, I clicked on the leftmost icon (I think it says "Default") and the (at this point wireless) printer was already on the list as a BonJour printer. I made sure to give it a different name than the already added, direct USB connected (same) printer by adding the word "wireless" so in the printer list and print dialing windows and it's print queue it's called "HP OfficeJet 6200 Series wireless" as opposed to "HP OfficeJet 6200 Series" which is the original direct connected (same) printer. And the driver the OS picked automatically is "HP All In One 5.3.1" (as far I can remember--it could be something a little different).
    - I sent a print order from Safari, and boom! I started to print almost immediately! After about 5 minutes, I sent it again, and it printed again! Then I printed page one of an email from Mail, and it worked again!
    - So far so good. We'll see if this holds up.
    Thanks for all the comments, suggestions and links that helped me (apparently) solve this.

  • How do i disassembl​e the printer hpofficeje​t 6210 all in one ( paperjam with glue paper - gluein)

    HP officejet 6210 all in one
    Paper jam with selff-stick paper. I can not remove it. I tore it apart while trying to remove it, and now I can no teven see the left over self-stick paper. I need to disaasemble the unit to remove this glue paper.
    Wher can I find tool or how do I diassemble it so I can remove the rest of the selfsticking paper.
    Thanks
    Charlie

    The main part of the output tray is not removable.  There are a few alternatives:  the input tray can be pulled partially open and the printed pages loaded in it - it should not be necessary to remove the input tray completely. The other possibility would be to just print using the automatic duplexer.  If you are printing on plain paper or index paper this should work, it would not be suitable for printing on the back side of photo paper.

  • 6210 all-in-one -- prints fine on Win 7, but right side of horizontal page will not print.

    HP 6210 all-in-one installed now on Windows 7 and prints fine.  However, with landscape pages, will not print the right 1.5 inches of any NEW page I prepare, but pages prepared before on XP print fine.  I've tried all adjustments and it just doesn't make sense to me whta is going on.  HELP!!  

    I actually solved the problem myself by installing still another replacement set of print heads.

  • Why wont' my Iphone 4 print to hp 4500 all in one?

    I downloaded the Hp home&biz app to print to HP 4500 All in one printer.  
    I can print from Ipad, Itouch and MacBook Pro but not from Iphone 4.?????
    I have tried everything.
    Thanks.

    Hello dobis11011,
    You have verified a lot of common factors that can interfere with the printing method that you want to use.
    I would also try some additional steps, you can try to print after each step to isolate the causing factor:
    Verify Bluetooth is off (preferred setting).
    Power your iPhone off and then on.
    Press the home button twice and end the HP ePrint Home & Biz app from the multitasking section.
    Delete the app and re-download it from the Apple App Store, as it is a free app.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • How to print to HP PSC1110 All-In-One Printer connected to WinXP PC?

    Hello everybody,
    I would like to us an HP PSC1110 "all-in-one" printer connected to a Windows PC in another room.
    The easy part: The printer shows up in the browsing window, under the correct Windows domain, when I try to add an "other Printer" device.
    The difficult part: When I try to select the printer model from the list of HP printer models provided, it does not show up, although HP PSC 1110 is included in the list of supported printers.
    I also tried the ESP HP-deskjet drivers, both old and new version. But those result in printer errors on the Windows PC.
    BTW: Printing over the net works well from other Windows PCs!
    Can somebody out there who had a similar problem before give me a hint how to set up printing to an HP "all-in-one" over the Windows-Network?
    Thank you,
    Detlef

    Thank you for the detailed information. Maybe I should have added a few screenshots too.
    The suggested procedure probably works for a HP Photosmart Printer. However, the PSC1110 is a "Printer, Scanner, Copier" all-in-one device. Unfortunately, this one does not show up in the menus, although it is supposed to be supported. I assume that only an USB backend is available, but no SMB backend.
    Is this correct? Is there a workaround?
    Thank you for your feedback

  • How can i add a wireless printer HP officejet 6310 all in one? is it possible

    How can i add a wireless printer HP officejet 6310 all in one? is it possible..?

    Hi @millep 
    To answer your question, no the Officejet 2620 is not a wireless printer;
     - Source: Printer specifications
    As for the USB cable, personally, I believe the intention is to bring down the cost of the printer by selling the USB cable separately. Many people already have printer USB cables kicking around the house, so instead of paying more for the printer and having an extra cable I believe the theory is reduce the cost and sell the USB separately for those who need to purchase one.
    I hope this answers your inquiry.

  • How to print to my wireless all in one photosmart prem c410 when printer is not powered on?

    how to print to my wireless all in one  photosmart prem c410 when printer is not powered on?

    Hi,
    You cant print to a printer that you physicly turned off. Most network printer have a sleep mode, so leave it on and after a while it should go into a sleepmode. And should wake up when a printjob is being sent.

  • My printer, hp photosmart c4200 all-in-one is stuck in scan mode

    My HP printer--HP Photosmart C4200 All-in-One is stuck in scan mode.  I have tried holding start button 60 sec, unplug from power supply, hold while I plug back in with no luck.

    Hi @Bungybill,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that you cannot copy or scan with your HP Photosmart 3110 on Mac. I am happy to help!
    For further assistance, I will need to know:
    The version number of the Mac Operating System. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well. 
    If you make a copy, and lift the lid, do you see a light come on and the scanner bar move?
    Hope to hear from you soon!

  • Iphoto 08 Will not print 4x6 borderless prints to HP 3210xi All In One

    Hi Folks,
    I've just installed Iphoto 08 and upgraded to the latest version 7.1.2. I've also just installed the latest HP 9.7 Mac drivers released to support 10.5.2 on 2/4/08. However I can not get Iphoto 08 to print 4x6 borderless prints to my HP 3210xi All In One Photo Smart printer.
    I'd appreciate any feedback/suggestions from anyone who is able to get Iphoto 08 to print properly.
    Jim

    Jim:
    I don't have an solution but this printing problem with HD all in ones has been discussed many times. Do a search in this forum for HP All In One or HP 3210xi or other similar search terms and you'll find the various threads where it is discussed. I don't remember if a solution was found in any of them as I don't have an HP and didn't pay much attention.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    My iPad does not recognize my printer (HP officejet 5510 All-in-One). What can I do?

    The Photosmart 5510 is AirPrint capable.  You can find that information linked below.  There may be something in the network that is preventing communication.  To use AirPrint your router needs to support Bonjour services.  Run the download below.  It will let you test Bonjour services from your Windows PC.  If this app can't see the printer either, then the router's Bonjour services are off, or it does not support Bonjour.  Let me know what the app finds.  If it can't find the printer, let me know what brand and model router you have, and I'll see if it has Bonjour services at all.
