HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni & Windows 7 via network

I have a HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni connected to the network, not via a USB cable. How to I setup this printer so I can print to it from my WIndows 7 machine? Will HP be coming out with anything other than the Universal Print Drivers for this printer? If so, when?

The full feature download for your printer supporting windows 7 will be available for your product in late January 2010.

    Hi, I was hoping someone could give me an update on when the full drivers for this printer would be available. The last information I was given was that they would be available late January. Anyone know anything?
    Thank You,

  • HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni - Network connect on Windows 7 64-bit operating system.

    For a temporary fix, I've connect an HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni for network use by my department.  The printer is printer over the network, but it is not printing in color - just black and white/grayscale.  The demo page prints in color, but nothing sent over the network will print in color.  Is there a fix for this?

    Hello SoonerGirl, and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .
    I hope this helps!

  • Hp color laserjet cp1518ni color does not align???

    I recently posted at the beginning of the month saying I was having problems with my hp color laserjet cp1518ni and the whole left side printing blurry.  After cleaning the rollers, running it through the cleaning mode, restoring the defaults and calibrating the colors, it miraculously worked.   
    But less than a month into the fix and I am once again having problems.  I have done all of the following (I have windows vista 64bit):
    *updated firmware and confirmed that it is updated to most current version 20120110
    *restarted computer
    *turned off printer - more than once
    *disconnected printer - more than once
    *restored defaults - more than once
    *calibrated color - more than once
    *run it through the cleaning mode - more than once
    I have taken each toner cartridge out and carefully placed them back in again making sure they were firmly in place.
    My husband has tried connecting it to his computer and printing it, but has gotten the same results. 
    I was trying to print out a job when I noticed that the color was horribly off from what was on my computer screen.  Since I was 5 prints away from needing to change the cyan cartridge, I changed it, thinking this would fix the color.  Not only did it not fix the color, but that's when the alignment problems started happening.  I am so completely frustrated.  It is ridiculous to have this kind of problems with a printer every time you try to print and I've spent the last 3 hours fighting with it.
    I am absolutely, without a doubt, certain it is the printer.  I don't know what it is, with the printer, so if anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it.  I just opened a 3 pack of toner (to put the cyan in) so now not only can I not use the printer, but I am out money for the other 2 toners.
    The reason I know it is the printer, is because I finally I printed the same exact piece I had been printing on the hp color laserjet cp1518ni that looked horrible in both color and color alignment, onto a Canon MG6120 inkjet.  The color was exactly as it appeared on my computer screen and there were no problems with misalignment.  I just prefer to do my jobs on laserjet printing, so this is frustrating to have a large, expensive doorstop in my computer room.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    I wanted to add one more thing, as I was looking through the Resolving Print Quality Issues page
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c01691481&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc​...
    I have printed out a Diagnostics Report and it's obvious that there is a problem. Under Solution #11, it tells you how to
    Identify and replace the problem print cartridge
    Because it allows you to print and see:
    The page prints five bands of color, which are divided into four overlapping sections. By examining each section, you can isolate the problem to a particular print cartridge.
    I have done a search on my computer for:
    HP Color LaserJet CP1510 Series ToolboxFX and it does not come up. I am able to do everything through the printer itself (run the cleaning mode, etc), but as far as finding anything on my computer under a folder, there doesn't appear to be anything.
    I'd like to be able to print out these pages so that I can see which colors are giving me problems. Is there a way to do that from the printer?
    Thank you!

  • HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni toolbox error

    HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni, when I try to open the toolbox, I get an error message, "HP ToolboxFX has encountered an error and can not recover.  Please restart HP Toolbox FX, or restart you PC."  I have restarted my PC and it hasn't changed the situation.  I don't know how to restart the toolbox as it suggests.  How is this done?

    I have the same problem.  Have you found a solution? My printer is LAN-attached. My OS is Windows Vista.

  • [HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni] Stopped printing black ink documents when Magenta toner finished

    Hi there,
    I have a HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni.
    I just printed about 200 pages of black ink documentation.  The black ink cartridge is still about 38% full.
    Although none of these printouts involved colour, the printer started flashing the message: "Replace magenta cartridge".
    Since then, it would no longer print.  Again, I am only attempting to print black ink docs, and I even tried turning off the colour print option to no avail.
    The printer queue on my macbook shows the doc as 'printing' and 'sending', and then it disappears, with nothing happening on the printer itself.
    If I push the 'X' button on the printer, it says 'cancelling print' or something like that.
    Is there any way around the problem of the printer not printing anything once one of its cartridges runs to empty, even though the printjob does not need that colour cartridge?
    Thank you!
    Steve

    How can I find the Toolbox FX on Windows 7 Professional? I can only find information about Windows XP and Windows Vista. When I  go to my Start button, and go to All Programs , there is no HP option or folder;therefore,I can't find the Toolbox FX.
    My printer ran out of magenta toner, but all I want to do is print in black ink (which I have plenty of).
    Can anyone please help me?

  • I can't change the display language on my HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni

    I have a HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni printer that I inherited from an employee who is no longer at the company. The display screen on the printer is not showing in English, it's in some language I do not recognize (and neither does anyone else). I want to change the display language to English but the manual only shows you how to do that on the display, which I cannot read because it's not in English, hence my dilemma. Does anyone know of a way to change the display language through the computer?
    Thanks

    InventoryLady,
    Yes that is what I did.  I do not know the language that it is currently set at, so the recommendations were from using the front panel menu. The OK button is the OK button on the front panel, that would not be in another language, it is the button in between the left and right arrow- See image below #6:
    Once you have hit the OK button, you can complete the steps in my earlier recommendation. Again because I do not know which language it is currently set at, I am guiding you the best I can. As for selecting the English language, I suggest using Google Translate to find out which language it is currently set at and see what their word for English is.
    If you have any more questions, please let me know.
    Thanks,

  • HP Color LaserJet CP2025 / Windows 7(64bit)-Why the printer does not print color letters??

    HP Color LaserJet CP2025  / Windows 7(64bit)-Why the printer does not print color letters??

    Could be a lot of reasons. First try to print a supplies status page- If that prints with color on it, you have a driver problem.

    Can I fix the alignment problems my Color LaserJet CP1518ni is having?  The red does not line up.  I have installed the latest updates, etc.  Calibrating does not help.  The printer is only a few years old.  What gives?

    I have a similar issue with a Laserjet cp1525nw, it was mostly corrected by removing and reseating the toner cartridges.

  • HP Color Laserjet CP1518ni color alignment problem

    Hi,  We bought an Hp Color Laserjet CP1518ni printer about 6 months ago,  It worked fine until recently, when the colors started printing out of alignment.  We tried calibrating and we updated the firmware to the latest one available on HP's website.  This did not help.  We contacted the supplier we bought it from, since it is still under warranty, but they told us to contact HP directly.
    What should we do now?

    I have the same problem.  Very disappointed in HP

  • HP color laserjet printer on a networked windows xp Machine

    printer, I have an hp color laser jet connected to a computer on my in house wireless network. How do i tel my imac to use it. I just bought this imac and I am new to apple. I would really appreciate any advice I could get to get the mac to print.
    printer: HP color laserjet 1600 (connected to the xp computer)
    Computer: Windows running XP up to date
    Network: Cisco router wireless network

    You will need to turn on Sharing on both computers and specifically printer sharing. I would recommend you contact AppleCare (phone number is in your owners manual) and may be able to help you. Remember they are Apple Techs so there is a good chance they're not trained on MS Windows. I'd recommend Googling something like Printer sharing Windows XP.
    For example I found this link:

  • Is it possible to share an hp color laserjet cp2020 connected via usb to a 32 bit PC with a 64 bit ?

    I have a client who is running an XP 32-bit PC that has the Color Laserjet CP2020 connected to it via USB. It is shared across the network to other PC's, but I recently upgraded 2 of the PC's to Windows 7 64-bit and now I cannot connect the shared printer to them.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Try the following: install the Windows 7 x64 drivers on your Win 7 machine as if the printer was going to be attached locally.  Next on the Win 7 machine go to the Devices and Printers folder, Add a Printer, Local Printer, Create a Port, Local Port, \\Computername\Printername (use the actual share name for the computer and printer), OK, then select the cp2020.

  • HP Color laserjet 2840 Windows XP (under VMware Fusion on a Mac).

    I have been using this printer succesfully for years and now all of a sudden when installing it to a new machine it keeps giving the error " page to complex" then refuses to print this is the first time i have used it via a usb port as it has always been on the network via a hub. i have tried to revert to the hub but it will not install "no printers found " etc etc.
    Is there a series of key pushes on the printer that will remove everything from memory and allow me to start again?
    i thought i had cured it but a spurious printer keeps installing itself in the printers and faxes (color laserjet 2840:#1
    any advice would be great thanks
    Tommo50

    The cable for your card reader has been knocked lose - if you pop the side cover off you can put the cable back on.  If the cable is firmly attached, then the card reader has died.  There was supposed to be a 2830 released that had the fax but no card reader but at some point they canceled that decision.  However the firmware was written for all 3 models, so when the printer sees a fax but no card reader it reports itself as a 2830.
    The squeaking carousel and not pulling from tray 2 means it needs servicing by a genuinely trained HP tech on that particular model.  Tray 2 should be easy enough to fix, but the carousel may need to be realigned and that is not an easy job.  You may have to call around or go out of your way, but find a service center that is certified in this model printer.
    I've worked on this models myself for a couple years - if you think one squeaking carousel is bad, try listening to 4 or 5 of them all at the same time!!!

  • Driver for hp color laserjet cp2025 windows 7 32 bit

    I just bought a refurbished Dell Optiplex 755 32 bit with Windows 7.   I have a hp color laserjet CP2025.  The icon appears in devices & printers  window as unspecified, category unknown yet the model no. appears correctly as CP2025.  It has a USB connection that loads a driver automatically.  I can't print a test page etc.  After I powered the system up initally I was able to print a test page but after 200 or so updates I can't do anything with the printer.

  • HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni STOPPED WORKING!

    Will the print driver for HP Color LaserJet CP151ni be included with the MAC OS X 10.6 updates anytime soon? I just bought this printer two months and what a waste if it will not be supported by the updated OS. Really disappointed! Need to print....!

    Never mind. Just realized that it was a network issue. Was able to use the included driver with the 10.6 OS (CP1510 series)
