HP C6180 AIO Printer question

I've gotten one of the above and love it's being aboe the print wirelessly. My issue is with the drivers. It seems that I can get but one brint quality and don't have the ability to opt for b&W or Color.
Am I missing something in the settings and the software? I've checked HP's site and they are no help.
Any Help will be appreciated.

Hello John,
I finally got the 6180, an upgrade from a 2210 model. It still worked wonderfully, but the times just caught up with it.
About the 6180: compaired to the previous one it is absolutely wonderful. I've had no real problems. It fit into the network like a champ. The Linksys Router went south and there was no problem setting it up on usb. I could have set it up with the eithernet, but the usb was more handy. As for the speed. I've never had to do 32 pages, so not sure if it would do it in 60 seconds. It is very fast one the economy modes. Fax to email fine, though I have question on how to get it to send a document as an attachment in .mail/apple mail. It sends as an attachement in Entourage. Couldn't find anything about it in .mail preferences. If anyone can help with that, please do.
In short, John, I love it.
Larry Jay
Does the 6180 perform as advertised? 32PPM? Scan to
Mac? Print docs from the Web & Preview without issue?
All via the Airport as a wireless server? How's the
print quality now?
Leaving an HP 6110 that has all of these issues that
were HP driver/software problems. I wasn't happy with
HP ignoring the issues and vowed I wouldn't buy
another, but if this is all correct, I'll probably
reconsider.

  • Canon Pixma MP280 AIO printer - ink levels cannot be displayed - how to resolve this problem?

    Good morning everyone,
         I have a Canon Pixma MP280 AIO printer (about 18 months old) now which I previously had installed on a old Windows 7 Pro x64, SP1 Dell Optiplex 755 computer.  That computer finally bit the dust.
    My present computer is a Dell Optiplex 745, Win 7 SP1 x64 Home Premium  machine.
    Description of problem:  After installing the printer on this computer (using the CD/DVD that originally came with it and following all the instructions), I find the printer will no longer display the ink levels.  Every time I click on "Printer Status", the pop-up box just states the info cannot be displayed.  (All other  functions of the printer work just fine).
    Resolutions attempted thus far w/out success:
    1.  Uninstalled printer and deleted all files associated with it (2 times).  Re-started computer, then re-installed it.
    2.  Emailed Canon Support.  their response did not resolve the issue.  (Don't recall just what they said as I've long since deleted that email reply).
    3.  Searched the Forums here for an identical problem with the same model printer, but didn't see anything.
    My question:  Is there a resolution for this problem?
    Thank you for your time and any help.
    Pete C.

    Yes, thanks for  your follow-up .. .Mine did not work after the day-long shut off.
    I am gonna risk buying a new black ink cartridge since my machine seems to just be running the error on the black alone.
    Good luck with your new one.
    I will probably upgrade too, if this does not work.  I cannot complain about this machine. I had two, one for office and one for home. Both took A LOT of use. And, i used no-name refill cartridges and no-name refill ink for over half the time on the home machine.
    This one, the home one lasted about 6 years, the other about 4+1/2 . I think that is pretty **bleep** (lol it censored the correct spelling of 'dam') good mileage for a fairly inexpensive machine, that got very high ratings, and gave me all those features.
    Good Luck.

  • Before I buy: speed and printer questions

    I am looking to buy a new TC 500gb version to replace my linksys WRT54G. To upgrade the wireless router as well as start a backup system I have yet to ever initiate.
    Two questions/concerns come up:
    #1) After the initial back up to TC I understand there are hourly incremental back ups - Can that time interval be adjusted, and how long does that back up take (I do now add much data/ files to my main Comp usually) also during those incremental back ups does that affect the computer much, such as if I am playing an internet game, will I lag out while it is backing up every hour?
    #2) Setting up a printer through usb port to be accessed by my home network. My HP C6180 all in one works fine being seen through the aged, but battle tested linksys, any reason it shouldn't work with the TC?
    Thanks for any insights you might have in this regard.
    I have cable isp access, My Main Comp is where the cable modem and TC would be, I have a G4, a G5 and a MBP scattered around the house accessing via wireless.

    Hi Steven, welcome to the discussions.
    After the initial backup (recommend that you use ethernet for this), TC will backup incrementally every hour assuming you will be using Time Machine. There is no way to alter this with Apple software, but a number of users have reported satisfaction with Time Machine Editor, http://timesoftware.free.fr/timemachineeditor/, which will allow you to schedule backups whenever you would like. This might be a good solution if you notice slow downs with other devices during a backup session.
    Backups should be relatively quick, but be aware that very small changes in some programs (like Entourage, vmFusion, Parallels) require the entire database to be backed up, not just the small change that might have been made.
    The printing question is the most difficult as the boards are busy with users who are having troubles in this regard. Perhaps some other users have used the same HP and can comment. Bear in mind that if your HP is compatible, only the printing function will work through the network. Scanning and other advanced functions are not supported.

    Hi Peter,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.  I understand that you are trying to use the new HP AiO Remote app for Windows phones to print to your Photosmart 7150 printer.
    The Photosmart 7150 printer only supports USB connectivity, I have include the Photosmart 7150 Printer Specifications for reference.  To be able to use the HP AiO Remote app the printer needs to be connected to a wireless network. 
    If you accidentally typed the incorrect printer model, please let me know which make/model/product number of HP printer that you have. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?

  • HP AiO Printer Remote

     When running HPAiO Printer Remote,  if I click on "Set Preferences" I'm told....Your printer settings are password protected. use your printer control panel to change setting. How do I do this? The control panel display only shows....
    Control panel display: Indicates the number of copies, media error, and wireless signal strength.

    Hi,
    For Windows 8.1, your printer has proper Software and drivers which come with the CD, why you need to use HP AiO printer remote ? And you can only set few things: Country, Language and Auto turn off after a period. All main Preferences should be done on software and drivers on your computer not AiO Remote app.
    Regards.

  • HP 6310 AIO Printer locks up and needs to be power-cycled when faxing from my PC.

    I have an HP 6310 AIO Printer; Whenever I try to fax a document from my PC, the printer locks up (All lights flashing) and needs to be power-cycled. I can fax from the printer glass directly but unable to from my PC. Also the software communicates properly whenever I am scanning from the glass or feed tray. What would make it locks up and all light flashing? it seems as if whenever I generate the fax or scan from the PC end it locks up the printer.

    Completely reload the full feature software and drivers for the printer.

  • HP 3540 AIO Printer DOESN'T PRINT BLACK TEXT!

    I unfortunately have an HP AIO Printer Deskjet 3540 Series. 
    Upon haggling wiht the abject customer tech support for an hour, he asks me to re-install the driver. After doing so, the black text JUST DOESN'T PRINT!
    Is this some kind of joke! I am going to run out of colored ink in printng the **bleep** test pages. 
    It's an absolute rip-off. No wonder people buy cheap cartridges. 

    Hi @GaurangDivecha 
    Although I would be happy to offer you some troubleshooting steps, I think it might be best to call HP.
    You are welcome to take a look at the following document to ensure you have done all the necessary troubleshooting; Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP ENVY 4500 and Deskjet In...
    If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
    HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check. 
    Don't hesitate to call, although the printer may be out of warranty, the cartridges could be in warranty; therefore, there wouldn't likely be a fee for the phone support. HP will, at HP's option, either replace products under warranty that prove to be defective or refund the purchase price.
    To find the “Warranty Ends” date, look in the following table for the date's location on each product. The date follows the YYYY/MM/DD or YYYY/MM format, where YYYY indicates the year, MM indicates the month, and DD indicates the day.
    I hope this helps.

  • Upgrading to Tiger & HP AIO printer TIP

    I just upgraded from Panther to Tiger, 10.4.3. After reading about all of the issues surrounding HP AIO printer issues and upgrading to Tiger here is what I did and my HP AIO 6110 works perfectly after the upgrade.
    Before upgrading I did a complete clone of my old system to a FW HD. Ran TechToolPro. Deleted all existing HP AIO software. Rebooted my machine. Upgraded to Tiger and then ran Combo 10.4.3 updater. Used Printer Setup to set up the 6110 from the Tiger upgraded drivers. Printer worked just as under Panther with no issues. Installed all the HP 6110 software.
    Scanning and Coping as well as Printing all work perfectly.
    I'm not saying this will work for others but it did work for me.

  • Can a HP B210 AIO printer be connected to 2 different wireless networks at the same time?

    I live in a household that has 2 different wireless networks in it (both me and my roommate have our own networks) and we just bought a new B210 series AIO printer.  The printer detects both of our networks but only will print from one network at a time. If I want to print from my network I have to manually go to the wireless network wizard on the printer and select my network and re-enter my password. Is there any way that I can set up the printer to acknowledge both networks without having to constantly switch back and forth?

  • HT1338 I can no longer AirPrint to my Dell AIO Printer since I upgraded to Mavericks. Any suggestions?

    I can no longer AirPrint to my Dell AIO Printer since I upgraded to Mavericks. Any suggestions??

    Okay. That is a good result. It proves you have a working network connection between the Mac and the Dell.
    So with the printer not showing using Bonjour, you could try adding the printer manually. With Printers & Scanners open, click the plus button to add and then select the IP icon. You can then enter the IP address of the Dell. Set the protocol to HP Jetdirect-Socket. Leave the queue name blank. Change the Name from the IP address to Dell Wireless. Leave the Location blank and in the Use menu, select the model of Dell you have. Then click Add to complete the queue creation and then see if you can print.

  • Best current ideas for wireless AIO printer for MBP? Prefer not HP or Canon(my MX 850's bad match)*

    Would appreciate best current ideas for wireless AIO printer to pair with MBP (bought late 2011). Prefer not HP or Canon.  Got my MX 850 to print -- with lots of work -- but would not scan.  Tried to fix that, now won't print or scan. Time to move forward, leaving Canon along with Dell notebook in recycle bin.  Thanks for any suggestions.

  • Image Printing Question

    Hello,
    Bottom line summary: How do I use the Media and Quality setting to get a good image?
    I have an image printing question for an HP 8600 Office. I am trying to get a decent quality image to print
    on regular paper. I gather that I will not get the quality of a photo printer. I gather I'm supposed to use
    HP glossy paper. Please read on ...
    Images come out grainy (rastery) when embedded from an MSPaint project, and if I use Word. However when I printed just an image from image viewer it came like a photo ... but I can't remember what I did. It definitely is capable of printing better. My cartridges all check out, etc. I did the Print Quality Report ... I sure wish I could get that quality when I print other things.
    I tried messing with different settings from the Print - Preference. The Quality (Best, Normal, Draft) doesn't effect the outcome. I tried going into Print - Preference - Media and it makes a difference. I can't figure out which is the best setting for plain paper ... but it's not plain paper. The image rendering algorithm appears to be different for different Media settings. I also tried setting the Advanced Resolution to Maximum DPI. I haven't been totally methodical about this as I was in a rush.
    I see that the printer is being "smart", perhaps a little too smart. 
    So my question is multipart:
    - Is there documenation on the what the Print - Preference - Media settings do?
    - How do I get it to not use grainy/rastery image method, but use the nicer photo method?
    - Should I print Maximum DPI?
    Thanks,
    - Dave -

    Hi @DaveGold , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I hope you had a great holiday!
    I see you're looking into photo setup options. I'd like to help!
    First I'd recommend this document on Changing Print Settings in Windows 7.  This document should show all the settings you're looking into.
    Also, another thing to keep in mind, when you select 'best print quality' and 'photo paper'. It will only be as good as the source image.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
