HP Deskjet 2680 Pop-up problem.

I have a deskjet 2680 on Windows XP that gets about 15 pop up messages everytime a single page prints.  I have tried stopping hp services, tried stopping the HP that start at startup,  tried reinstalling the driver, aligning printer cartridges, etc.  If anyone has a solution to this that would be awesome.  I have attached a screenshot.

Hello Bob H.,
My printer was printing colors that were washed out, then sometimes they were "embossed" looking, and at other times the print results looked like they had a "metallic/shiny" quality. I had already performed all of the recommended tests and cleanings before I logged on to this site. Aligned the printer carts, cleaned the print cart heads, and cleaned the points where the cart heads touch the cradle they're in (per the instructions). Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, etc. I have always been leery of using the refill/remanf carts because I didn't know how they would affect my printers' performance (my 940c is hinky enough already).  :-)  I will now always check for an expire date, too. The "new" hp carts that I bought last month at Kroger had an expire date of 2007 (!). Guess that could have been the main problem. But I thank you for your advice and input. This site is a good resource.

  • Deskjet 2680

    I an sick and tired of this new printer. Deskjet 2680. I have had nothing but troble since I took it out of the box. I had an
    OLD Cannon Printer that the only thing wrong with it was the color. The black & white print was perfect Then I decided to go on line and buy this thing. Every time I try and us it, it want print. I have checked the paper, took the back door off to make sure there were no paper jams. It will finally print, but the next time you use it, it will do the same thing. NOT PTRINT.
    I don't know what else to do, but go and buy another brand.   I already chatted with a expert on line and the printer started working. He told me to press the red X button and hold down the power button at the same time. This will not work this time. I hope that all  H.P. printers don't give the trouble that this one has.       John Bailey     [Personal Information Removed]

    Hey delmar12345,
    To start off I would suggest following the document 'Can't Print? Print Jobs are Stuck in the Print Queue'. Please select your operating system, and follow through the steps. This will clear out all the pending, and stuck print jobs in the queue.
    Just to make sure as well, from the comment of the printer being jammed, I have included the document ''Paper Jam' Message Displays on the Computer'.
    Please let me know if you are successfully able to print after this, or if you are getting any error messages when printing.
    Thank you.

  • Crazy POP Account problem receiving emails

    I am on Mail 2.08, and my ISP is Media Temple (shared server setup).
    I have one account will not download email! It has exactly the same settings as others that work.
    I can Get Info and Mail shows that my test message exists on the server. I can go on Squirrelmail and see the mail is there. I can set up the account in Entourage and download the email on the server no problem. I can use this account in Mail to send the test emails (smtp works). I run Connection Doctor and it logs in and says account is fine. There are no errors showing up in any attempts to download the mail, just a spinning wheel and then no mail in the inbox!!
    I erased and set up the account on Media Temple's servers. That did not work. I have erased and set up the account within Mail multiple times. I threw out the plist and re-entered the account in Mail and that did not work. I wish I could download a new version of Mail so I can delete this one but don't know how to find that online.
    I don't think there is any kind of cache or anything to clear with Mail.
    I should note that on my first setup of this account, I set it up as IMAP. My primary email account is IMAP and works great, but when I was trying to make this new account work, Mail.app goes crazy with where it puts the folders for Sent, etc and what is mapped to what. So I then deleted it as IMAP and made new one as POP. I cannot find any evidence of a remainder of this work but wanted to note it here.
    Media Temple tech support say they have many Mail.app users calling in with very mysterious problems like this one, that they cannot replicate and often like this where there are other accounts with the exact settings that work while others do not. Or that they suddenly stop working and the users cannot figure out why. I even tried to set up a server-based alias for this account on Media Temple to reroute the email to a new account that I can download on Mail.app but it would still not download them!!
    Help!!!
    Thanks in advance for any advice, this has been hard to figure

    Well, I don’t know why it doesn’t work as POP, but if what you really want is to set up this account as IMAP, it seems to me that what you should do is fix and/or understand that instead...
    Anyway, assuming the account is actually supposed to work using POP as well and that it has been configured correctly, go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list.
    Also, try using a different method to connect to Internet, if possible, or connecting the computer to Internet as directly as possible, i.e. bypassing any routers that might be present, using an ethernet cable instead of wireless, etc., and see whether that makes a difference.

  • 'Quick Fix' for HP Officejet Pro L7580 Printer & 88XL Yellow Cartridge Popping out problem!

    After reading other forum comments from people having the same problem with the yellow cartridge popping-out, combined with others who have realised that HP have no interest in compensating anyone for this rediculous example of, at best, 'bad design', or at worst 'blatent planned obsolescence', I have created a solution that may add another 1, 2 or more years of life to the HP Officejet Pro L7580 Printer.
    This is not the elegant technical solution I was hoping for.  However, in hindsight, it may prove to be a more reliable solution than replacing the faulty part that is actually causing the problem.  So, here it is the solution ........
    I found a wooden triangular door stop that I cut to size that fitted exactly in the space between the plastic door and the offending yellow cartridge. To hold it in place, I wrapped the doorstop with 2" cellotape, then I stuck the door stop to the inside of the plastic door with double sided cellotape (double sided stick-on foam would also work well). With the doorstop in the correct place, the plastic door closed perfectly and was snug enough to apply sufficent pressure to the offending yellow cartridge, and hence stopping it from popping out again.  To make sure the plastic door does not 'fly open' with the pressure of the yellow cartridge (when it wants to pop out!), I applied another piece of 2" cellotape around the outside of the door, holding it to the body of the photocopier.
    This exercise only took 10-15 mins to do.  I feel this is a much better option than spending another $300+ on a new All-in-One  system, as well as being a good environmental solution.  If this is DELIBERATE 'planned obsolescence', companies like HP need to be more accountable for, at best, 'sloppy design'.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Try this for a Quick Fix ...........

  • HP Deskjet 3050A wireless printing problem with Macbook Air

    Hello, I have a HP Deskjet 3050A printer that I have been using with my MacBook Air (2012 OS X 10.8.3) until a few weeks ago when it seemed to hang when trying to print and then say no printer found (even though it showed and was selected in the Printer options). So after a few weeks of this I decided to to remedy this issue once and for all by deleting the printer and 'refinding' it.
    However, upon 'refinding' printer by adding it through System Preferences no printer is found - I have updated all Macbook air software.
    All this time I have been able to continue printing wirelessly using my iPhone 4S and have changed no settings to the iPhone or 3050A which leads me to believe the proble the problem may lie with the Macbook Air?
    Can you help resolving this please? Thanks

    What router are you using?  Have you restarted it by pulling its power plug momentarily?
    If that does not work, download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Restart your Mac.
    Finally, reset the printing system:
    - Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and then next to the "Use" pulldown, select the printer model (not AirPrint). Wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.

  • URL is not valid and cannot be loaded pop-up problem has started again and I can't find any reference in FF Help. Do I have to scroll thru 23,000 support questions asked?

    This problem HAS happened before, maybe 1.5 yrs ago. While on a valid page a pop-up saying URL is invalid and can not be loaded appears. Frequency starts increasing in time. Then I can not load any of my bookmarked pages without re-starting my laptop. Has been getting worse since last FF update.

    well after 4 days and no support help, I said screw it. Good bye FireFox, your excellent customer service on this issue drove me to install Google Chrome. Just like Opera's piss poor customer support drove me to FireFox, now Firefox is driving me elsewhere.
    This issue is NOT AN ADD ON issue, nor THEME ISSUE, its a FIREFOX ISSUE, but their lack of a fix is inadequate for me. I hate the damn annoying pop up every time I open firefox so I will dump firefox and move on after 5 yrs.

  • Safari for Macbook Pop-Up Problems

    I have a Macbook Pro that I got less than a year ago, and I recently started having Safari problems. Whenever I am using safari, I get random pop-ups for things like promotional websites that say they're giving away free stuff, Mackeeper, and other websites I have never heard of much less been onto. Also, I seem to have a random shopping helper enabled as well. Whenever I am viewing a product on a website, there is a little bar underneath where the pictures of the items are, and they have pictures of similar items in the boxes. When I click on it, it takes me to an Apple Support Desk that offers free PC Diagnosis. Their number is 855-214-9613, but I do not at all believe that it is a real Apple service. Another shopping helper that has shown up is a green bar in the bottom right corner that has a box attached to it that shows products that it thinks I will like based on my search. There's a button with 3 dots on it at the top right of the box, and it has a disable button where you can disable it for different time periods up to a day. I do that every time it shows up, and it says "[pop-up name] has been disabled" but then the next time I go to search something, it is there again. When I do a Google search on Safari, there is always a lis of about 6 items that are purely irrelevant. There's a hello section of 3 of them that are "Ads related to [search]," and another 3 that are typically from whoisbest.com, grocery saving.com, and sale stores.com. I'd like these to be gone too because it is very annoying to have those block the actual search results that I want. I've already done a Hardware Test and reset Safari several times. I updated Safari to 7.0.4 already, but nothing fixes it. I already have pop-up blocker enabled and it doesn't stop the problem.

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • Transactional iView - Pop Up Problem

    Hi Experts,
           I am facing a problem in one of the transactional iView in Portal. The iView runs a workflow. When i click on one of the line items (from the list of lineitems), and execute the workflow, it shows me the details of that line item and a new window pops up which contains a pdf.
    The problem is when i close the workflow or go back to the list of line items, this popup window should get closed automatically, which is not happening.
    If i execute this from R/3, it works fine.
    Any ideas, what can be a solution to this..

    Dear Abhishek,
    mind you that although ITS might show you any SAP transaction - it is not 100% guaranteed that it will show you the exact same features you have on the SAP Logon.
    Is this a standard SAP transaction or a Custom one ?
    What transaction (if standard) are you referring to ?
    Please check this ITS FAQ nevertheless

  • Adobe Connect UAC Pop Up Problems - Blocks Clicking

    We use Adobe Connect to trouble shoot problems with our end users.
    The biggest problem I have is with pop ups from Windows UAC wanting to allow an action. We can't click on those through Adobe Connect like you can with normal remote control software. Also, the popup doesn't even show up. On the controller's end is just a black blank screen. The only reason we know that the Allow/Deny screen is coming up is because we've had users on the phone tell us when it prompts them.
    If it was just getting past that screen, that'd be fine. We could warn the user to just click allow on those popups and be done with it. But it doesn't stop there. You can't interact with any window that involve the aforementioned UAC popup protection.
    Perfect example: We need to delete something out of the registry. When opening regedit a UAC popup comes up asking if we want to allow. They click yes and you lose control over the mouse while that program is up. If they user minimized regedit, then you regain control. If you restore the window you lose control again.
    We don't want to walk users through the registry. It just takes them deleting one wrong key to mess up a bunch of stuff. It's actually already happened once and the end user ended up having to reformat his computer because of it.
    Is Connect intentionally designed to work this way?
    If not, is this a known issue?
    Is there a way around it?
    I did a fair share of searching/googling and was unable to find any answers. If this has been answered already, please point me to the right post and I apologize for creating an unnecessary extra thread.

    Jorma Jennings wrote:
    OK, to be fair, Connect is not an RDP application, and simply gives remote access to someones computer through the Flash Player. So, that said, UAC is doing exactly what it is supposed to, stopping someone from changing something on your computer. This is a Windows setting issue, not Connect. The UAC controls have prevented more interaction with the shared control function since Windows 7.
    I wouldn't call it a known issue, but more of a known limitation of Windows. You can have the users click past the dialog (as you have mentioned) or reduce the setting of the UAC on their computer.
    I appreciate you taking time to reply, however you completely ignored the main problem of this post and only focused on one subcategory that honestly isn't that big of an issue.
    We have no problem getting by the popups. Asking people to click a button is easy. It's the fact that any screen that receives a UAC popup is completely inaccessible post message. If it has focus, the cursor stops working. After that window loses focus, we have control again. That's an issue.
    Also, I'm aware there's a difference between remote desktop applications and using adobe connect as a remote app. But after allowing UAC access, no application should be inaccessible. That completely defeats the point of *allowing* access.
    My question still stands and I'm hoping someone has some type of helpful solution or workaround to this problem.
    Thanks
