HP 2175 and OS 10.4.3 = Blank Pages

I have seen lots of threads for several brands of HP printers. So I thought I would start another thread. I had some problems before with a blank page being printed at the beginning of any web print (Safari, Explorer, Netscape). But Now ALL I get are blank pages. I loaded the most recent driver from HP but it did not work. I removed it and loaded the original driver but it did not work. I tried the shareware program that repairs printer driver set-up and that did not work.
Has anybody found a fix to this!! This is ridiculous
G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

Sorry, no real fix to this that I've come up with. The HP folks have been no help at all so far and I've been too cheap to shell out $39.95 for their telephone tech/talk time on the hope only, no guarantee, that it would help. However, since I can't print wirelessly directly from the internet, i save pages to the web receipts folder. I seem to be able to print those out just fine...well, at least most of the time.... Why? Go figure... It is still ridiculous....

  • The back, forward, reload and stop buttons are greyed out, the address bar stays blank when I go to a website and firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. There are 3 users on this computer and it only happens on one user.

    Firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. When I click on the home button it takes me to the home page. The back, forward, refresh and stop buttons are greyed out and not usable. The webpage I am on does not show up in the address bar. If I type something into the address bar, that address stays there no matter what page I go to next.

    Just upgraded to v4. It did NOT fix the problem.

  • I'm using internet explorer(yuk!!) and am having trouble with getting back my search engine "google" and all i get is "blank page", can u help?

    First of all, forgive me cuz I'm probably NOT the sharpest "chip in a laptop" but I use Internet Explorer as my ISP(I've heard that GOOGLE CHROME is soo much better??) and Google as my search engine. For some reason(I know, probably USER idiot!!) even though I have set in my "internet connections" tab, www.google.com chosen, the minute I click a new tab to look for something else, that dreaded "about blank" or maybe "blank page" comes up.....wtheck???? Can u help me pleeez......thank u ..

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Uses RequestDispatcher and it gives me a blank page

    Folks,
    I am tired of this problem.
    I am doing a shopping cart. When the user views (ViewChart, a servlet) his shopping cart and decides to delete some of the items.. his request will be handled by ProcessCart which is also a servlet. ProcessCart will not have any output to the user and it will forward the request (using RequestDispatcher) to ViewCart. It returns a blank page.
    ViewChart is not giving me any problem when i first access it. The request is forwarded successfully but ViewChart is unable to detect the request.
    ServletConfig config = this.getServletConfig();
    ServletContext context = config.getServletContext();
    RequestDispatcher rd = context.getRequestDispatcher("/ViewCart");
    rd.forward(request,response);
    Both ViewChart and ProcessChart are in the same directory. By the way, i am using tomcat 3.2.1
    Regards,
    Baihao

    Hi,
    Could you check the server.xml under conf for the following
    <RequestInterceptor
    className="org.apache.tomcat.request.InvokerInterceptor"
    debug="0" prefix="/servlet/" />
    if it is the case, may be you should use "/servlet/ViewCart" instead of "/ViewCart".
    Hope that it help.

  • I can print from every app on my MacBook except with Firefox. Printing and print preview only produces blank pages???

    I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.6.4. Within Firefox, if I select File -> Print and then select preview a get a blank page. The same thing occurs if I sent the print request to my printer. I can print and preview from Safari and from any other application. Firefox is the only app that I can't print from.

    Is there anyone who can assist????

  • MY PIXMA iP4000 not printing--paper feeds and steps through but only blank pages

    The printer sounds like it is printing----you can hear the print head moving---but nothing prints....
    pages are completely blank. Reseated the connections, no effect. Took out all the cartridges, reseated
    them, no effect. Still only prints blank pages. Connected it to another computer, same---only blank
    pages...nothing, not even a test page or nozzle page will print. Any ideas? Was working fine
    on Monday when I went out of town until Friday. When I tried to print on Saturday morning, only
    blanks pages. Just spent a small fortune on ink for the printer and would hate to trash the
    printer, but can't justify spending more than the price of a new one to have the old one fixed.
    PS The printer is connected to my USB port, as it was for the past several years when it worked
    fine. Totally stumped/

    Thanks, Michael, however, I was on the phone with Canon for some time, and could not get the printer to do anything even off line. Was told the iP4000 is over 8 years old and there are no parts available to repair it.
    So I have already replaced the printer with an iP2702 that was on sale at a nearby
    mass merchandise store. I was intending to replace the iP4000 eventually anyway, as the red was
    not printing as vividly as it once did...more like a purple. Thought at first it was because I was using
    3rd party ink, but even after replacing the magenta cartridge with "genuine Canon", the red was still
    not as vivid as when it was new.
    Unfortunately,as you know,  the iP2702  got uses a more expensive combined color cartrdige
    rather than the separate ones in the iP4000.
    I am suspecting the reported failure of my iP4000 to print may be due to the third party cartridges
    which I was told do not contain a "chip" as do Canon cartrdiges and that may signal to the printer
     to suppress printing.
    Strange, as I have been using 3rd party cartridges for some time prevbiously without any problem.

  • When I first start up computer and click on Safari, a blank page appears. I am trying to make MY MSN as the opening page. How do I do this? Thanks for any help.

    When I first turn on my computer and click Safari, a blank page appears. I use to have MY MSN as the opening page on Safari. Don't know what happened, but how do I restore it back to the way it was? I've tried everything, I know it has to be something easy, but can't figure it out. Thanks for any help.

  • T500 and HP Photosmart 7350 - prints blank pages

    I've done a search but can't seem to find anything. When I try to print it goes through the motions but pops out a blank page. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with the latest driver from HP. It prints a test page OK directly using the printer's buttons and through the HP software. It won't print when I reinstall and click the "Print Test Page" button. It also prints a test page when it recalibrates the cartrideges. I've tried different cables and connecting to different USB ports; makes no difference. Anyone have this problem?

    Sorry to ask an obvious question - but are you putting the paper in the right way? I have a 7520, and as long as there is ink in it, and the paper is facing the correct way, and I hear the print job go to the printer, it prints fine.
    Are you hearing the pringing attempting to print?

  • My print setup will not work and Fire fox only prints blank pages. Help?

    I tried to change the margins on my printer set up. Since I did this my printer will only print blank pages from Firefox. (If I open a PDF it prints fine) I have tried to go into print set up but it only comes up as a big black page. Any thoughts??

    Sorry, just to be clear:
    (1) Which did you use to make the change and which do not display correctly:
    orange Firefox button > Print > Page Setup<br>
    ''or''<br>
    classic File menu > Page Setup, or
    the Properties button in the Print dialog?
    (2) If you switch to a different printer, such as a PDF printer driver (many free ones you can install, such as [http://www.primopdf.com/ PrimoPDF] and [http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp CutePDF Writer]), can you regain access to Firefox's Page Setup dialog?

  • I submit a keyword in the search bar and Firefox gives me a blank page.

    When I type a keyword in the search bar on my Firefox start page, it sends me to a blank page instead of giving me search results.

    Is that on the about:home page?
    Try to reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.<br />
    Close and restart Firefox.

    I have purchased books on itunes, can read them on ipad, but cannot read them on my computer. They will go into my Adobe digital reader and list the table of contents but all pages are blank.
    So should i have not bought itune books and stayed with amazon and others?

    iBooks purchased via iTunes are normally protected with DRM and can only be viewed using the iBooks app on an iOS device. Such requirements are stated on every page where you can purchase an iBook, just below the button to buy.

  • I don't want Safari to re-open all windows from last session; can't make it stop. Set Safari preferences to new window and new tab open with blank page, but it won't.

    P.S. Also cleared cache and History. Running OS 10.7.4 and Safari 5.1.7.

    I hate this "feature", and it is another example of Apple taking functionality (and choice) away from the user. In this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4550
    there is a description of it.
    Resume in OS X Lion
    When you open Safari in Lion or restart the Mac, Safari automatically restores the open windows and tabs from your last browsing session, so you can continue right where you left off.
    Tip: To open Safari without resume, hold down the shift key (⇧) as you open Safari. Safari will then open with the options you selected in the "General" tab of Safari preferences, options like your homepage.
    In Mac OS X v10.6 and Microsoft Windows, you can choose to have Safari automatically restore your windows in the "General" tab of Safari preferences.
    99 times out of 100, I DON'T want to restore all the windows from my last browser session. It makes zero sense for them to take the checkbox out of the General tab of the Safari Prefs.
