How to print on HP Laserjet 6P/jetdirect 170x?

I am trying to print on my recently acquired HP Laserjet 6P via an hp jetdirect 170x external print server on ethernet, OSX 10.7.5. , Gutenprint v5.2.3
Self tests for both printer and print server are ok, but when I try to print I get the msg "The printer may not exist or is unavailable at this time." Followed by "The printer is not responding." or I get "Connecting to printer." followed by "The printer is not responding."

OK, now the printer works
I reset the router and checked if DHPC is running.
I reset the printer (hold down the GO button, turn the printer on and continue to hold the GO button for five to ten seconds).
Checked at router that the printer is visible as network device.
At the router I assigned a fixed IP address to the printer.
At OS X System Preferences > Printer I added a new printer with "HP Jetdirect - Socket", the fixed IP address and the correct printer driver "HP LaserJet 2200".
Now the printer has been recognized well by the system (Tray 3, Duplex and printer RAM) and printing works.
THANKS.

How to print on HP LaserJet 2200 over Ethernet?

Hi,
I did an upgrade to Snow Leopard and would like to print on a HP LaserJet 2200 over Ethernet. OS X and the HP printer drivers are up to date now.
The printer has been cold reset and on the configuration print out there's the IP address 0.0.0.0
Now my question is how to get this printer to work with Snow Leopard over Ethernet? I did not find a tutorial how to assign an IP address to the printer first so I got stuck.
Could you give me a hint where I should start with the configuration first?

How to Print Envelopes - HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP

I can't work out how to print envelopes on my HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP.
I put the envelope upright (flap down) in the adjustable tray at the very top of the machine (as I have done in almost every printer I've used) and it prints the address on a sheet of paper!

Hi goodgrandma ,
I see by your post that you would also like to know how to print envelopes.
I will be happy to help you.
Both the Laserjet m251 and M276 have a main tray only.
Above the tray is the jam access door to remove paper jams.
To print on the envelopes, you would need to remove all the paper from the main tray and load the envelopes in the main (bottom) tray, to print to envelopes with these two units.
If you are using Word Application, click on Tools, select Letters and Mailing/Envelopes and labels, the envelope box will open, in the envelope tab enter your address, click on Options, click the Printing Options tab, you will need to change the Feed from to Auto, it is likely set to Manual.
What is the full name and product
number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Hope this helps.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a great day!

How do I set up e print for my laserjet P1102 for Mac

how do I set up e print for my laserjet P1102 for Mac? I have downloaded soft ware & ejected disc as directed & don't know next step. Thanks

Hi,
As you have setup the printer now you should be having the printers IP address.
If not please connect your printer to wifi network with a valid internet network and get the IP address by printing the config page.
Make sure you connect Mac Book to the same wifi network.
Now type the IP address on a browser in your Mac Book and hit enter.
You should be able to see the Embedded Web Server page of your printer.
Now navigate to Web Services Tab.
Click on Enable to enable eprint on your printer.
This will enable the web services on your printer and print the information sheet.
The information sheet will contain the claim code for your printer.
The <Claimcode>@hpeprint.com will be your email ID for the printer.
Kind Regards,
Oliver

How can I print to a Laserjet 4050 networked on an XP machine from my iPad? Can I use the AIO app? does not find the printer. Thanks.

If I understand your question, you would like to use the AiO remote app on your iPad with your Laserjet 4050, correct? If this is case, unfortunately, the AiO remote app is not supported with the Laserjet 4050 and the iPad.

Should these steps not work for you, be sure to respond to this post with your Operating System and the program that you're printing from.
What's my OS?
How to Print Envelopes from Word:
1. Open Word and click on Mailings at the top
2. Select 'Envelopes' from the top left hand side
3. An Envelopes and Labels page should now open. Enter your Delivery and Return Addresses.
4. Select 'Options' on the bottom right hand side.

6. Select the 'Printing Options' tab at the top. You now need to select the appropriate Feed Method for your product.

How to print on small cardboard card?

I have an HP 4525 LaserJet and am using windows 7.
I'm trying to print on a small cardboard card. Since the card is so small I am taping it to the center of a regular 8.5/11 piece of paper and feeding that through.
The result is the card in the middle:
The cards on the left and right I printed using an inkjet printer by comparision. As you can see there are two problems.
1) The top of the card seems to have been caught in the printer and the ink was smeard or had difficulty adhearing to the cards surface...
2) The font size is much thicker, I assume this is because the printer is somehow set to some kind of economy mode or is using a low DPI. I searched the settings on the computer but could not find any to improve quality...
Does anyone know how to solve either of those problems?

Hi largee,
I wouldn't recommend that you continue to tape the card to the regular paper.  There are multiple things that could go wrong and I think there is a better more reliable method.
The printer has functionality in it for automatically detecting media.  You can also set the media type specifically in the control panel when you load media.   Also, when the media type is correctly know, the printer will automatically select color tables that are optimized for that media type.
What I would recommend that you do is the following:
1) Purchase 8.5x11 sheets of cardstock that will allow you to print more than one card on the page.
2) Specifically, set Cardstock, if Cardstock defined the weight range that your media is in.
3) When printing, I would also set Cardstock in the driver.   You don't have to do this, but it is a good habit to be in for special projects.
4) In your app that is used to print, see if you can adjust it so that the images you are printing can print multiple on a single sheet. Leave a little room at the leading edge just in case there is any leading edge damage, which since the printer will be running slower should be rare.
5) Print.
Regarding the font size....it is most likely a difference in how the InkJet vs. the LaserJet decided to implement the font rendering.   I would recommend you adjust the font in the app until you are happy with it on the LaserJet. I don't believe there is a setting that would enable you to make the lines thinner.
Hopefull this is of some help for you.

Driver(s) to print on HP Laserjet 4000n and HP Deskjet 722C printers for Windows 7 (64bit)

I'm introducing a Windows 7 64bit) computer in a network of Windows XP (32bit) computers.
How do I find driver(s) to print on HP Laserjet 4000n and HP Deskjet 722C printers in a network that uses Windows 7 (64bit) and Windows XP (32bit)? Printer sharing is done using a Windows XP (32bit) base computer.
Should I load a 64bit driver on the 32bit XP computer for the benefit of the Windows 7 computer or will that mess up the XP computer?
Thanks

Hello, the HP laser jet 4000n you install the drivers via windows update procedure. The HP 722C is not supported under Windows 7 due to it's age.

I am trying to restrict color printing on my laserjet 4700dn for my network

Here is my issue. I am trying to restrict color printing on my Laserjet 4700dn for my network. I have configured it for "color if Allowed" and all works perfectly. I was then going to allow certain users to print in color so I started by configuring my username and allow color. Every time I print it is still in black and white. I then decided to look at the color usage log and what I found would explain why. The color usage log only shows the username of one user on my network. All other jobs just show the date and number of pages. So my issue is why can my printer not see all the other users and how do I configure it to do so. Also why would only that one user show in the log. It also does not show any applications but it does for that one user. Is there something else that needs to be installed on the computers for it work?

Can not Print with HP LaserJet 5000 and Epson AcuLaser C9100

I am using MacBook Pro 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 with Mac OS X (10.6.6)
I already install the latest print driver from the Apple Software Update website.
The driver for HP is Ver. 17.5 & for Epson is Ver. 5.2
I connect two of the printer to my Belkin Surf N300 wireless N Router with ethernet cable.
The error when print to HP LaserJet 5000 is as follow:-
Unable to get printer status (Not Implemented)!
Network host 'x.x.x.x' is busy; will retry in 30 seconds...
This error can stay forever if I do not delete the print job
The error when print to Epson AcuLaser C9100 is as follow:-
Printer not responding
This error can stay forever if I do not delete the print job
Previously I can print with my emac with OS X 10.4.10, but now I can not print with 2 of my printer.
My 2 printer are in good condition, so this is not the printer problem.
Please, do anyone know how to fix this problem fast, because I need to use this two printer for my business.
Thanks in advance.

That is not what Greg needs to know. That is just the way that the IP addresses are assigned to the printers.
Your problem is probably that the printers were probably originally found by AppleTalk. AppleTalk is not included in Snow Leopard. If the printers support Bonjour, they should be found that way. Otherwise, you have to use other methods.
How did you add your printers on the new computer? If you delete them from Print & Fax, how would you add them again?
