Has anyone fixed wireless printing to HP LaserJet 1015 via AEBS Snow

Dear All
I've searched the forums, read numerous posts by HP Mac Architect (thanks BTW for your amazing efforts), tried various things, and still can't get wireless printing back on my HP LaserJet 1015.
My set up is:
Intel Core Duo 20" iMac, 10.6.1, running latest version 2.2 HP drivers (383Mb download)
Airport Extreme Base Station Snow, running firmware 5.7
HP LaserJet 1015 connected to the USB port of AEBS
Worked in 10.5.8. Absolutely nothing in 10.6.1 - not an initial page, nothing after resets or restarts, nothing. It has also scuppered wireless printing to the 1015 from another iMac on the network running Leopard 10.5.8.
I have tried the following:
1) Usual stuff - restart AEBS, restart computer, switch off printer, unplug AEBS 30 seconds, reconnect printer
2) Deleting all HP stuff from Library/Printers, Library/Printers/PPDS/Contents/Resources, System/Library/Extensions, restarting, reinstalling HP drivers version 2.2, re-adding printer
3) Add the printer via Bonjour, using plain driver, Gutenprint driver
4) Add the printer via IP printing, HP JetDirect - Socket, using address of base station +/- the port, using either plain driver or Gutenprint driver
5) Tried the ipstat stuff in the terminal to get CUPS to accept the URI
6) Tried downgrading firmware of AEBS to 5.6 then 30s off, then back to 5.7, 30s off, then re-add the printer
The error messages I get:
Initially 'communication failure'
Then 'client-error-not-possible' from the other iMac
Now mainly 'unable to open device (read failure)'
I have yet to try the HPIJS drivers but before I do so has anyone else had any success or tried any other things I've not mentioned?
Do I need to wait till 10.6.2 or buy a new N base station or buy a new printer or what?
Thanks in advance

mwong,
At the moment, there is no way I know of to get the LaserJet 1015 printing through the USB port any Airport base station that isn't running a firmware version of 7.4.2 (ie an 802.11N compatible Airport). Some people have had some luck on newer G's running 6.3, but I haven't seen anyone report success with 5.7 yet. At the moment, there is nothing we can do from our end to fix the issue.
Just trying to help.

Has anyone successfully gotten an HP Color Laserjet 2600n to print from OSX Lion?

I have it installed by IP address with the drivers that Apple Update provided. When I send a print job to it, the status shows that it's connected and printing and the little sideways barber pole is screwing away, but the job never prints. As a matter of fact, the printer never even starts its warm-up cycle. Has anyone gotten this printer to work on a bone stock OSX Lion 10.7 image? This iMAC 27 is brand-freakin-new.
I have absolutely no printing issues from any of the 5 (cringe) - Windows 7 machines in the house.
Thanks for looking. I hope to have some helpful response soon.

KJameZzZ179 and PAHU - I appreciate you guys taking the time out of your busy schedules to help me. I pinged the printer and it replied. I pulled up its web interface and the gateway and subnet settings matched the settings on my iMac. I opened a PDF and sent it to the printer successfully. I don't know what the hold up was, and while I am glad that I can print now, I am equally disappointed that I wasn't able to find the root of the problem so we could provide an answer to anyone else in the future that might have had the same problem. Thanks again for your responses and willingness to help.

I have an epson workforce 600 which is not listed as airprint enabled. has anyone made this printer work with airprint?

i have an epson workforce 600; it is not listed as one of the printers that is airprint enabled.
has anyone made it work with airprint? if so, please tell me how.
thanks.

The Workforce 600 is not AirPrint-compatible. Epson has an app that enables printing to some of their other wireless printers. Search the iTunes Store or look to the support resources for your model of printer. Third-party printing apps such as PrintCentral are also available. All such apps have limitations, so check them out thoroughly before you pay for any such app.
You could also route the printing through your computer. If you have a Mac, Printopia would be worth a look. Fingerprint is another option that is available for both Mac OS X and Windows system. You could also consider an AirPrint-capable print server. Lantronix makes a couple of models, including one that supports a USB printer:

Elements fails to connect to iphone 5. has anyone fixed this problem?

each time I connect iphone to the computer, the photo downloader cannot connect to the phone and fails to upload any photos. It simply gets stuck trying to connect and never connects. Has anyone had this problem and have you fixed it?

Hi c44sman,
Leaving PSE out of the picture, temporarily, do your devices show up in Windows Explorer and can you copy images from them to a folder on your computer's drive?
First you want to disable the Photo Downloader. To disable the downloader, find the little camera icon on the bottom right hand side of the Windows taskbar, right click on it, and you should be given the option to disable it.
Next, click on "Start" on Windows task bar, open the "All programs" list, find "Scanner and Camera Wizard" in "Accessories." This program - Scanner and Camera Wizard - will be the default program you use to download photos from iphone to computer. Every time you connect your iphone with your computer, you should be given a dialogue window where you can pick the "Scanner and Camera Wizard" program to download the photos. Once selected, the program will take you through a step-by-step wizard to download the photos. Within the process of downloading, you can select folders or create a new folder for the photos. In my opinion, making a new folder makes it easier to import them altogether into photoshop organizer where I usually do the "Smart Fix" for all the photos.
Once you have the photos downloaded, open up Photoshop's organizer interface, go to "files," and then "Get photos and videos." Here you will select "from files and folders." Locate the folder where the photos are stored, and then import them directly into Photoshop. Now, you should be at where you usually land if the photo downloader was working properly.
Also do check if you have updated the software to te latest patch.Go to the Editor menu and click:
Help >> About Plug-in >> Camera Raw
You should see a pop up with the version number.
Press Esc to close.
Help >> Check for updates
to install the latest patch.

Has anyone fixed the Headstart libraries for Forms 11 ?

I have a 100% generated Designer - Forms application using the %65.pll headstart libraries - the so-called Headstart version 6.5i.
Currently our production environment is running on Oracle Application Server 10.1.2. It works fine, however, because of several reasons (the underlying Oracle Portal environment is not working properly anymore on Internet Explorer 10) and continuous alerts that our customers may not use Java 6 and should upgrade to Java 7, we have to migrate to 11g.
We have installed Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.6, upgraded Portal and recompiled all Forms modules and libraries. Also the Headstart libraries compiled ok. However, when we start a form we get the message that it has been created with an older version of Forms and it quits.
The consequence is that i have to migrate the Forms as well with the tool frmplsqlconv. Sadly that fails on the Headstart libraries. For example these errors occur:
CG$MESSAGE: The String CALL was found. If it is an occurrence of the Forms Built-In, It should be replaced with CALL_FORM.
CG$_SHOW_KEYS: MENU_SHOW_KEYS changed to SHOW_KEYS
CG$_PREVIOUS_MENU: The PREVIOUS_MENU Built-in is obsolete and will not compile.
CG$_HELP: The MENU_HELP Built-in is obsolete and will not compile.
CG$_EXIT: The EXIT_MENU Built-in is obsolete and will not compile.
CGNV$FIRST_NAV_ITEM: BREAK changed to DEBUG.SUSPEND
Does anyone have Headstart libraries with fixes for these errors?

Hello Mark,
the problem has been fixed...
1) I tried to migrate the forms to 11g, but that can not be done with headstart... The fmb/pll files should be kept on 10g.
2) The migration documentation is not complete: webutil has been installed completely (in other words, webutil is not migrated)
So, steps are:
1) Install webutil
2) Recompile all libraries (including headstart and webutil)
3) Recompile all menus
4) Recompile all forms
Then the Forms application works again.
Java 7 update 21 is very dramatic. The "vendor" work-around can not be used anymore, like with previous Java 7 versions... It is unbelievable how amateuristic Oracle deals with Java. For me, Java in the client is dead as long as Oracle has the controls. So, the end of Forms is very near. If you are also looking for alternatives, check theformspider.com.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards, Jan Willem Vermeer

Has anyone been sucessfully printing to an HP Photosmart c4580? If so, can you point me in the right direction?

Hello, I am trying to figure out if is possible to print from an IPAD2 to an Hp Photosmart c4580 series printer. I have run across all kinds of advice pointing to a multiple of apps (all cost $) but need to be sure I can complete the connection prior to purchasing. HP dos not list this unit as supporting AirPrint, and pimps an app of their own. Anyone solved this problem?

There was a cool new device discussed on Engadget a week or so ago. Lantronix is creating a print server that stands between Bonjour(iOS) devices and standard non-Bonjour printers. Here are links on it.

http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/mobile-print-servers/xprintserver.html
As i understood the article it would cost about $100...this may not be right for your specific use case, and it won't be available to 1st quarter 2012, but you might find it interesting. If you are on a home network AirPrint works great, in an enterprise environment, you have to fiddle a bit with the access points and network infrastructure to allow mDNS(Bonjour) packets to move back and forth.

Wireless Printing for Color Laserjet 2505dn

I keep getting emails from HP regarding wireless printing. So, I'm trying to find out if mine is compatible to do it. I have a Color Laserjet 2505dn printer. I think it is too old and is not compatible but I was hoping someone can tell me for sure if there is possibly a way to do it. I have a wireless router to my computer but can it reach my printer?
Thanks
Walter

Hello WalterK,
I understand your concerns. Unfortunately, for this type of printer, I need to direct you to our Enterprise Business Community Forums. This will be the right section to troubleshoot this issue. Good luck.

Netbook wireless printing to HP LaserJet 1022

I have a HP LaserJet 1022 connected (USB port) to desktop computer running Windows XP pro and it is working ok. I also have a laptop also running XP that I can print from using a local network with a rooter. Just bought an ASUS netbook 1201N the uses the same network with a wireless connection. My problem is the netbook will not print to the LaserJet even tho it shows up as a printer. The error message I get is “Error 0x000006ba”. Have tried several things suggested on the web. Need help!
Thanks, RB Curry

The Sharing is through Microsoft and not an HP function. This particular configuration where you are shared on XP USB and wired to a router, then trying to connect via a wireless laptop is not an HP supported configuration.
You can try to add the printer local - Devices & Printers, Add Printer, and choose a local printer then add the shared name (if it is listed).
As stated, this is not a supported scenerio, but that is not to say that it is not possible.
Thank you,
Thanks,

Has anyone got DiskWarrior 4.2 - 4.3 to work w/ Snow Leopard?

My iMac is totally up to date and I've tried both DW 4.2 and 4.3 on it and it will NOT let me boot up from that DW disk. It's always the ownsership issue. I tried their tech 'help' person with no luck. He just tells me to not use a wireless keyboard and other stuff like download to a DVD, not a CD. I've spent easily 20 hours messing around with no luck.
I hold down the C key and it always just comes back to the regular desktop. Anyone got a sure-fire fix for this? I've read online that Snow Leopard just won't let DW work anymore. Worst of all, Apple blames THEM for the issue and DW blames Apple.

You have to have a valid Mac operating system on the external hard drive in order to boot from it. (By the way, holding the 'C' key forces the computer to boot from a system DVD disc if there's one in the optical drive. It has nothing to do with booting from a hard drive. Holding the 'Option' key will booting will bring up a menu showing all the valid system drives your computer knows about.)
Copying DW to the external drive isn't enough. You first need to put an OS on it. There are two methods: Use a program like CCC to copy (clone) your current drive) or use your restore disc to install the Mac OS on the external drive. Since your computer's drive is not well, I suggest the latter.
So get your system disc (probably the grey disc that came with the computer when it was new, or the Snow Leopard disc if you upgraded to SL after buying y our computer.) Insert the disc, restart the computer - and now hold the 'C' key until you see the grey Apple logo.
Check out this article on how to format an external hard drive. Then install the Mac OS on the drive.

Wireless print server DPR-1260/Canon i9900 and Snow Leopard 10.6.1

Hello,
I have recently got my Mac Book Pro and have the latest system (10.6.1) and cannot print with a wireless print server. I have a Dlink DPR-1260, and a Canon i9900 printer. I have done everything and I still cannot print. Please I need help!!!!
Susan

Hello Susan and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately the Canon Mac drivers have never worked correctly with the wireless print servers. I tested a Dlink model some years ago and while the Windows drivers for the same model would work fine, the Mac driver would always fail.
The only solution was to use the Gutenprint driver suite for Mac OS X. This software provided drivers for many brands of printers including Canon, and got our A3 inkjet working - albeit it wasn't always available as it seemed to never wake from sleep mode.
Checking the Gutenprint drivers included with 10.6, which are added when you do a custom install or by running the Optional Installer package within the 10.6 DVD, the i9900 is not listed as a supported model. It appears that only the Canon version of the i9900 driver is included with 10.6.
So, you have some decisions to make...
1. Don't use wireless and just have the i9900 plugged in directly to the Mac via USB
2. Replace the Dlink with an Airport Express. Due to the way in which Apple has made their Airport units, they will let you use the Canon driver.
3. Keep the Dlink and purchase an alternate driver software package called Printfab. If you are printing mostly graphics on the i9900 then this driver suite can provide you with more colour control than the Canon driver. And it will work with the Dlink like the Gutenprint drivers do.
Hope this helps

Printing to a LaserJet 4M via network. All aps work but can't from internet i.e. UPS

It seems to have started when I upgraded to OS 10.6 from 10.4.11 now running 10.6.7. The printer prints from all applications i.e. Word, Pages, Excel, Numbers etc. but when I try to ship from UPS or USPS I get an error that the printer is busy. Has anyone else seen this? But I can print the labels from my DeskJet L4700 at home but I need to be able to do this in the office.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated,
Cheers,
Jeff

Pahu,
Thanks for the reply. We are a 1-1/2 person office so our network is quite small. I saw a postin on the "More Like This" board and followed it and found and answer that works. I guess in OS10.6 Apple dropped the drivers for these older printers from the GPP. Being such a small office our network doesn't have proxies, etc.
I wanted to thank you for your help, it was much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jeff

Print to HP LaserJet 4mp via ethernet on Snow Leopard

Well, after tons of research I have ended up printing thru my OLD mac via shared printer on the network. But I would hope there is a better way. I have a Mac Pro, 10.6.3 connected to a HP LaserJet 4MP via ethernet router via RJ45 cables, works great on ALL my other equipment, even the PC but refuses to show up in Snow Leopard. I tried the standard stuff like giving it an IP address that would match my current network settings, no luck, tried Asante, no luck. I realize it's hard to support a decade old printer but what's all the GREEN CRAP about if I have to keep throwing away equipment that still works, and beautifully. Had to ditch my quad PPC unit because of adobe. Now I can't print. HP was no help, apple support is WAY too expensive since I bought my machine used and they won't sell me an apple care agreement. Anybody have any more suggestions? MIO must stand for missing instant output. ANY suggestions would be appreciated as I've tried all the ones in the discussion forums so far.

Since the 4MP is a PostScript printer, there should be any number of print servers that work with it. It might even work with your router. But it is not going to just "show up" on your computer like it did with AppleTalk. You will need to provide the computer with all the information it needs for an IP connection.
You can get help with that here, but you need to provide information, like the model of the router.

HT4356 Has anyone tried AirPrint with a HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color MFP M475dn ?

The HP site here<\a> claims AirPrint is not supported for this model but the Apple site here<\a> claims other wise.

So, i tested it out already. AirPrint works for this particular HP Printer. I had to connect a wireless router to the printer thru the network port. Hope this helps anyone facing the same problem.
