HP 7500 printer and hp 2540 printer conflicts on same network

I have a HP 7580 printer conected to my router. We bought a wireless 2540 for printing from the iPad. Now when both printers are on, the 7880 prints mirrored images. I have to turn off mirrored image in the print preferences each time I print. Is there a setting that will correct this?

Hi dctex,
I understand you are now having to turn the mirrored printing settings off each time you print. Instead of opening the print preferences each time you print, open the Print Preferences in the Device and Printers and change the settings there. By modifying the setting in the Device and Printers, you are creating the default print option. I am not sure how this got changed or why this started happening, but I suspect this will resolve the issue.
Here are some document with instructions in case you would like detailed instructions.
Changing Print Settings in Windows 7
Changing Print Settings in Windows 8
If you are using Vista, the instructions will be the same as Windows 7. If you are Using XP let me know and I will find instructions for you, if you'd like.
Please let me know if this does resovle the issue, or if the issue persisits. Thanks.

I have a iPhone 4S and a Cannon Printer with AirPrint. I have the printer and the iPhone both on the same network, however I still can't locate the printer on the phone. Works just fine with the laptop on the same network. Any suggestions?

ok no problem! all i did was 1) set up the mobile hotspot on my phone. 2) turn it and wifi on on the phone. 3) connect the laptop/desktop to the hotspot network. 4) insert setup disk for the printer and begin setup. 5) complete the setup "using a usb cord to temporarilly connect the computer and printer" 6) unplug usb cable and finish set up on the laptop/desktop. 7) give it a few minutes to show up on the AirPrint menu on the phone. 8) that should be it. I unplugged the printer and plugged it back in, made sure the laptop was totally turned off AND disconnected from the network, and did everything I could to try and make it not work. The printer I have is a Canon MG3122, it doesn't have a fancy screen or even a way to input a password or anything like that, so it just strores a default network that it will connect to. in order to change networks i would have to complete setup multiple times. Since I only plan to use it with AirPrint for my mobile business....the one network is just fine! Hope this helps!

I don't have a wireless printer, and want to print things off of my iPad. I know that I can use the iPad Camera Connection kit to connect USB devices like keyboards and I am wondering if I could do the same with a USB printer.

I don't think you can connect a printer since you won't have the printer drivers. I use FingerPrint from collobos.com to print to my non-AirPrint printers.

Adobe PDF Printer and Adobe Distiller Printer, from where to get these?

I installed Acrobat 7.0 Professional from the CS2 suite. During installation a message came up, "Warning 20225, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 set up was unable to create a new item: The Adobe PDF Printer Converter may be unavailable.
Get last Error: The specified module could not be found."
To convert WORD files to pdf I get "unable to find "Adobe PDF Printer or Acrobat Distiller" printer. I have run the installer in repair mode several times without success. Where from and how do I get the Adobe Printer and/od Distiller printer from. I have searched the Adobe web site with out success. Please help anyone who can.

Yes, the software was installed while logged in as administrator,
anti-virus was disabled too. I first installed AA7 using my original disc
and the same messages came up and the same problem existed i.e.. could not
convert to PDF. Uninstalled the software and installed again using the
serial no given to me by ADOBE help,CS2. Nothing seems to work.

HT1515 can i hook up a ethernet printer and a usb printer to the same airport express

I want to hook up an ethernet printer and a usb printer to an airport express? Is this possible and how should I set up the airport express?

I have an Airport Extreme, 5th generation, that is hooked to the internet and is the source of my home network. I am replacing an old AXs 801.11g with an 801.11n unit. The need to run a printer on the USB port is because it is an old HP 7400 all in one with a wireless g card. I want to set the network up for all wireless N and 5 Ghz for hopefully faster network speed. It is my understanding that if the network is set that way, the wireless g printer will not be recognized on the network. Since I currently am running a ethernet only Xerox Laser on the ethernet port, I would need to hook the HP using USB inorder to keep it on the network for scanning and such. Thanks to you and your information, I think I have the bases covered. If there is a best way to set up the AXs, or if I am missing something more, I thank you in advance and look forward to your assistance.
Thanks

I have a photosmart plus b210 e print and when I print with a black back ground I get lines

I have a photosmart plus b210 e print and when I print with a black back ground I get lines. What can I do to eliminate the
lines in the photo
Thank You

Hey appollus,
Do you get these lines only when printing with ePrint? If not, it sounds like a printhead issue. Here are the steps to fix the issue.
1. Go to the setup menu on the printers front screen.
2. Go to tools.
3. Go to clean printhead
You may need to do this a few times to completely remove the lines in the print.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Thank you everyone. I figured it out. I thought that you can use regular paper to print pictures from photos on Ipad. This is not possible. I was able to use regular print paper to print from my mail. My problem is solved!!

Help! One error printing and now all print jobs status = STOPPED.

I work in a big corporation with 99.99% PCs. I've been printing to networked printers here under Leopard without problem for a long time now. I recently submitted a print job to a HP printer and all it printed was:
Error: invalidfont
OFFENDING COMMAND: definefont
STACK:
-dictionary-
/HSRYIE+ArialNarrow-Italic
However, since that moment I have been unable to print anything irrespective of what printer I choose (HP, Xerox etc). Every time I start a job it immediately shows with a status of STOPPED in the printer window. Other people continue printing to these printers just fine, snickering at my Mac along the way .
Any ideas??

Hoping to inspire some tech-head to respond here...
Restarting doesn't fix this. Repairing permissions doesn't fix this. Removing and reinstalling the printer doesn't fix this.

HP C310 printer and Google Cloud Print Problems

I am using a Chromebook with a C310 printer and Google Cloud Print. The print dialogue does not allow for multiple copies. Additinally, the print dialogue box does provide for specifying which pages in a given document to print, but ignores it, always printed all the pages of a documebnt. Can HP address this problem or is it a Google Cloud Print problem?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Unfortunately, is you are using the Chromebook and the dialog box does not allow for multiple prints, then it is likely a feature that has not been put into the Chromebook yet. I would suggest contacting them for support, as the printing software for our printer can only digest the commands it is given - if the command isn't there for multiple copies then the printer will not have any other choice but to print them one at a time.
I hope this helps!

Everything works in the develop module but when i get to the print module, clicl on print and the apple print dialogue box opens, and I click onn print there, the app closes.

Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?

Troubleshoot the network as that is likely what is causing the issue.
Also, temporarily disable the firewall on the Mac and disable IPV6 on the computer.

Connecting a serial printer and a USB printer to my G4

I have aquired two Epson Stylus USB printers one of which I have connected to my Windows machine replacing a Star LS24-200 dot matrix serial printer. The other, a C86, is now connected to my G4 replacing a defunct C84.
The Star is in perfect working order (vintage 1992!) and I have several new ink tapes for it. As I have a serial PCI card in my G4, to which is connected an external HD and a Lacie CD-ROM drive, can I also connect the Star printer as a second printer in order to save on black inkjet cartridges?
The external CD-ROM drive and external HD were originally connected to my now redundant 7500/100 Mac. They are still useful though if I have to disconnect them there will not be a problem.
Any suggestions please?
Dual 450 MHz G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

"As I have a serial PCI card in my G4, to which is connected an external HD and a Lacie CD-ROM drive, can I also connect the Star printer as a second printer in order to save on black inkjet cartridges?"
If previously used with your 7500, these external peripherals are undoubtedly SCSI devices, so your G4 must have a SCSI (not "serial") PCI card, such as the Adaptec 2906 with a DB-25 port. Unless that 1992-vintage printer is equipped for connection via SCSI and has Mac drivers that are compatible with the current OS on the G4, you won't be able to connect/use it. Before the ease of USB connectivity, a typical PC printer cable was described as a "Centronics-36 to DB-25" and was intended for connection to the PC's DB-25 parallel port. Although similar in appearance to the DB-25 SCSI port found on many Macs and SCSI peripherals, the two buses are not compatible. Damage to the peripheral and/or host device can occur, if a PC printer is connected to a Mac's SCSI port.
Your only option for using the printer with a Mac would be a USB-to-parallel adapter with included drivers for the printer, such as the now-discontinued "PowerPrint" product. If you check eBay, you may be able to find one.

Default printer and problem with printing Crystal Report

Good morning
I have SAP B1 and on the client the default printer is "AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO"
Then i have another printer "AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv".
Before the default printer were the "AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv".
Now the default printer is "AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO".
When i push the button "Print" in the menu bar to print for example an invoice, instead of printing on the default printer AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO is always printing on then AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv.
The report to print was made with Crystal Report 2008 and on the report I also set the correct default printer (AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO).
So what's the problem ? Why is continue to print to the older printer ?
So i also delete the older printer (AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv) and very strange still printing on the old printer.
I also shut down the client, but no effect.
The operating system of the client is Win Vista and SAP B1 is host on a Win2008 server.
Thanks in advance.
