HP 7140 xi (All in one) network printer not installing properly?  Help?

I have the 7140 setup with a fixed ip address on the network. When I install the HP drivers the setup process hangs. Every time you restart the setup program runs again. Either abort the program or try to setup and watch it hang.
I had the same thing happen with my older G5 after a OS upgrade and had to do a driver reinstall. It would do exactly the same thing. The difference was the install software on the G5 was not the latest from HP's web rather the CD supplied with the printer. This time on the MacBook I am using the latest drivers from the web. Now on my MacBook how do I even get it to print when you cannot set it up? Could HP have an issue having two printers? I have the Laser 2300 dtn working fine also with a fixed ip address (different of course).
Anyone else having the same issues or has solved it yet?
MacBook Intel   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2gig RAM and 120gig HDD

I found the following information on HP's web site.
The address is http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=bpm35033&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en& product=91463&rule=36617&lang=en
When I applied the instructions it deleted my HP2300dtn printing but fixed the HP 7140xi (All in one) and got it working great. I will now go back and get te 2300dtn working.
Hope this helps others.

    hI @ARYANPRINJHA , 
    I see by your post that you are unable to scan. I can help you with this.
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

Built in ethernet 10/100 10-Base T, drivers for Mac and PC, You can Print and Scan to it from both platforms. Drivers compatible with 10.4/10.5/XP/Vista. Good little photocopier as well and supports up to 4 different types/size memory cards. These can be inserted and using the LCD panel (no iinteraction required with Mac or PC) you can print however many photos you want.

  • Solution for Windows 7 all-in-one network printer won't print

    It took all morning to resolve an issue that came up with my HP printer not printing today after working fine for 2 1/2 months. The problem was that the printer would queue the job, but then I would get a print error. The printer started out as offline, and it showed ready after I downloaded the HP troubleshooting utility, which said that everthing was fine, even it it wasn't.  I tried every solution out there, including reinstalling drivers and restarting the printer, computer and router several times and unchecking boxes.  I finally googled the exact error message I got (you have to type next several times after the "Windows can't fix this problem" message to get it.  It said something about the printer not being able to find the network - unfortunately I didn't copy the exact wording. This finally got me to a website that suggested that Norton security would be the problem.  My computer is new, and it is running Window 7 Professional 64-bit and Norton hasn't been a problem so far on it (though I heard horror stories that Norton can cause a lot of problems in the past).  The instructions said to reset the Norton internet firewall to the default settings, restart the printer, and thankfully everything was back in business.  I don't know why everything was working fine one day, and then suddenly the next morning it isn't working.  I hope that others with the same problem will find this solution can help them.

    Hi FGG,
    I understand you're missing a driver for your Officejet Pro 8500 printer. I'd be happy to help you with this!
    If you click here you can download the full software package for your printer, including the drivers. Just click next when the page loads (it should be able to detect your operating system) and then scroll down to where it says Driver - Product Installation Software, and proceed to download the HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver. I recommend saving it to your computer to make things easier as well.
    If this was not what you're looking for please let me know more specifically what the issue is.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!

  • Installing more then one HP All in One networked printer on one computer

    I want to be able to install more then one networked all-in-one printer on a single computer.
    This is need to be able to move from home office with one all-in-one to a client's location
    with another all-in-one but a different model.
    I have been told in the past that I can connect one via network connection and one via USB
    but this is not an acceptable solution because the printers are networked and used buy more then one system
    at a time.
    I don't think this is a unique situation for consultants or moble workers.
    Is there a way to do this with networked HP all-in-ones printers?

    What are the printer models and your operating system.  I am using both the Photosmart 2610 and Officejet 7410 networked here and have additional drivers installed for a K60 that is at another location I occasionally visit.  Typically you would install the most recent driver and install the printer, then run the installer again and specify "Add printer".

    It looks like all connected for wireless printing, however, nohing will print! Please help

    Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer (Setup > Network area).  Does the printer have a valid IP address (not  0.0.0.0 or 169.254.x.x)?
    Tell me about your network - router brand/model, encryption type (WEP, WPA, etc) and ISP type (DSL, Cable, etc).

  • Our Printer 6700 all in one shows " Printer not connected" on Mac

    Hi,
    We recently changed our router from Netgear to Lynksys. Since then we have problems to print from MAC computers and laptops.
    The Printer is connected properly to the Router, our computers as well and of course on the same network.
    The Macs recognize the printer at first and when we try to print it says 'Printer not connected".
    We reset printing system a few times and still have the same problem.
    Please help , as the printer works properly from an Sony Vaio PC but not from our Macs.

    Hi @AnthonyMiami ,
    I see that you are having issues printing over the wireless network on the Mac computers since changing your router. The PC works though. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    Repair the Disk Permissions on the Mac:
    Close all applications.
    On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
    Double-click Disk Utility.
    Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.
    Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions.
    Restart the computer..
    Reset the Printing System:
    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
    Click the Apple icon and then click System Preferences.
    Click Printers & Scanners.
    Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type the correct Name and Password.
    Click OK to reset the printing system.
    Then click the + sign to add the driver, highlight the printer. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name) Then click on the Add button.
    Try printing.
    If you are still having issues, add the printer through the IP Protocal to see if you can print, just to rule out a network issue.
    Go to the Apple, System Preferences, Printers and Scanners, click on the + button, select the IP Protocal across the top, type in the printer's IPv4 address, select jet direct below and then Apply.
    Try printing.
    Please let me know the results.
    Have a nice day!

  • 6510 all in one photosmart printer - not printing black and/or not at all after 7/22/15 update....

    Printer not printing in black at all, poor color print since 7/22/15. I have downloaded drivers and software, hard reset the printer (power cord out and unplugged then plugged all back in), read all the forums, watched youtube videos, called friends, googled answers, bought new ink (waste of money), cleaned print head multiple times, did every step on every forum post to no avail...  Bought a new printer but really would rather return it and get my money back after getting this printer up and running again- why because I think the problem is due to HP and the new update released 7/22/15! I'm very upset, I have spent countless hours attempting to fix this printer (which I really do love up until now).  I have lost credit on school assignments due to printing issues, wasted money on ink (that is really expensive) and wasted the ink trying to fix it running test page after test page.  I feel like this is not fair to the consumer and I am very upset.  I am ready to throw this thing in the street and smash it to pieces with a baseball bat at this point.  I really would rather fix it but apparently this is the only way to contact someone.  I have had this printer for 3 years and do not think I need to replace it or spend money to call someone from HP to fix it nor do I feel like I need to have it "serviced", nor do I wish to waste any futher time or money on the expensive ink this printer requires. 

    Hi there ,
    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact.
    Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post serial numbers and case details.

  • Hp - photosmart e-all-in-one wireless printer cn731a- nothing prints??

    HP - Photosmart e-All-in-One Wireless Printer  (CN731A)
    Went through setup on Windows 7 64-bit, printed the test photo, came out great.  Thought everything was good to go.  Later, when trying to print a document, it wouldn't print.  Computer popped up a message saying "Successfully printed" but when I went to the printer, there was nothing there.  I tried running a wireless network test on the printer's screen, and once that page printed with the results, immediately after that, the document I was trying to get finally printed.  This was an early Christmas gift for my parents, & my mom just informed me that she tried to print again today, but nothing happened on the printer.  I am out of town now and am not able to troubleshoot on my own on the printer like I did a couple days ago so came here for advice.. Any idea what the issue might be? Did I maybe miss a step after doing the test print of the photo?  Any ideas would be appreciated!

    Hello,
    Try the below steps ..
    While the printer is ON, Unplug the power cord from back of the printer.
    Disconnect all the cables that are connected to the printer.
    Wait for 30 seconds.
    Plug in only the Power Cord. ( Printer would Power on ).
    Try making a standalone Color copy of a document . If it fails to print a copy, then it could either be an issue with the Ink cartridges  or the Printer .

  • Can my hp photosmart all-in-one 7200 printer connect to ipad 2 via bluetooth?

    I have a hp photosmart all-in-one 7200 printer with a hp blue tooth dongle.  It works well with my cameras, but I cannot get my ipad 2 to recognize the printer.

    Hi,
    Printing via Bluetooth from an iPad is not possible due to iOS limitations, as Apple did not include the Bluetooth printing protocol in the iOS.
    If your printer is HP Photosmart C7200, you may use the HP ePrint Home & Biz App to print from your iPad through your home network
    However for the Officejet 7200 your only option is to look for any available 3rd party printing solution from the App Store.

  • Email address for HP J4680 All-in-One Officejet printer?

    How do I find the email address for my HP J4680 All-in-One Officejet printer?

    why cant the email be the mac address? or the serial number?
    Seriously I went thru hoops to find out that HP is too stupid to include an easy way for all of their wireless printers on a network to be accessed?
    maybe I need to buy a different brand next time.! Toss my Hp laptop, Desktop, Printer! and buy a samsung! Sheesh this is not only depressing its typical of HP! 
    I paid good money to have a wireless printer! but because HP cant figure out how to reach it out to it on the network with a unique # thats built in I have to go buy one that has a email address?
    Seriously!!!!!! ????
    Something so simple could be fixed with a software patch/upgrade!
    Get on it! or get replaced!

  • Best all-in-one wireless printer for Mac 10.9.2

    Looking for best wireless all-in-one for home use.  I have Mac OSX 10.9.2, iPhone 5, iPad and a wireless network.  Not technically inclined.  Any recommendations?

    I wish a few more users would take the time to share their experiences with printers. I have had a Canon MX870 for several years that is nothing but a perpetual headache -- it needs to be reconnected to the network three or four times a day or it simply will not print. There are lots of posts on this topic and I have tried every possible solution with no luck. I am reluctant to buy another Canon -- this experience has left me doubting their products. I am also reluctant, based on past experience, to consider an HP product. So that pretty much leaves Epson -- but which Epson? I am looking for an all-in-one wireless printer that will STAY CONNECTED to the network. Top-quality printing would be nice, but frankly, it's not on the top of my priority list. I just want to be able to use the printer, scanner and copier without wasting an hour of my day on maintenance. If you have had positive experience in this regard, please take a few seconds to post your recommendations. Thanks. (I am running the latest version of Mavericks on a new Mac Pro.)

  • Can I share HP PSC 1610 All-In-One series printer through Bonjour?

    I have an iBook G4, and a Mac Mini (10.4.11- Tiger) with a HP PSC 1610 All In One series printer connected to it by USB. On my iBook G4, the printer comes up under Shared Printers in the Printer Setup Utility but when I click on it, and press Show Info it freezes.. so I was wondering, is there a way to connect to the printer wirelessly with the correct driver (because the driver doesn't show up in the driver list... and the driver is installed.)
