HP LaserJet 1018 will not work on my iMac G4

Hello,
First of all i would like to thank to anyone who replies to my thread. So here's my issue - i havve brand new HP LaserJer 1018 Printer. Unfortunately i can't find exact drivers for it therefore i'm instaling the printer using the default HP drivers which are in the printer browser list. My iMac recognizes the printer and when i choose driver (Gimp-Print v5.0.0-beta2) which is the only one available, everything seems to look ok. Anyway when i want to print a document the printer doesn't responde at all. But even with the printer not responding, the printing quewe starts to print and in 10 seconds it says that the printing is completed. Ofcourse no printing occures.
Please tell me how can i solve this problem, because i love my iMac and i don't want to be forced to use my printer on PC.
Thanks a lot in advance to anyone who can help.
George

I had the same problem on my G5. Since when doesn't HP support mac?
The generic drivers suggested- as well as a few others don't work. The Printer window displays that the info is getting to the printer- but nothing prints.

  • My hp laserjet m2727nf will not work until i shut off power and power back on.

    My laserjet will not work until i power off then power on after every printing job. It first started happening over the weekend when it sat idle for 2 days. Then it was once a day and now every time i need to print. What could be the problem?

    So i didn't read anything about the suggestion about the configuration report?
    I would recommand turning off wireless (if it has it), unplugging usb, unplugging network cable, unplugging fax cable. Then i would reboot the printer go to the Menu and in Reports try to print a "Configuration Report".
    If it still doesn't print i would unfortunately then may be try resetting it back to factory default. perhaps there is some setting that is causing this issue. Also causes printer to fully reinitialize itself. There should be a button in the menu and setup to set back to defaults.
    Let me know if any of that helps and what the results of trying to print an internal report are.

  • Final cut will not work on my Imac

    I've gone from a 5 year old mac book to a brand new Imac. My final cut express worked on my old mac book but is not working on my Imac. It is saying I need an AGP graphics card, what is this and can I add one to my Imac? Live type and soundtrack are working just not the actual final cut. Please no confusing computer terms as I don't understand half the stuff that is said in this forum! Thanks, Sammy.

    I have the same problem. I can't load and save any movie - shortclip. I have tried several ways without succes.
    I just bought FCE 4.0 and it's new to me. Nothing works for me. I'm still working in Quicktime.
    My camera is Panasonic Lumix TZ7 - AVCHD. I can see my clips in preview but when I put into Sequence a "red hand" shows me "NO DATA". What am I doing wrong? I have also tried different setups i Preference.

  • My HP LaserJet 1536 Scanner will not work after upgrading to Windows 10

    I just upgraded to Windows 10, and now the scanner will not work, although I can still print.  I downloaded the latest driver, but this does not seem to help.  The error message I get states that scanner communication cannot be established. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

    Greetings , I saw your post regarding the problems you are having with scanning after upgrading to windows 10.
    I would start with the simple, have you tried just restarting the computer? Have you made sure your computer has all of it's windows updates? How can I tell if my computer is up to date? Most products do have updated software available for Windows 10, did you install the correct driver?HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver I've also seen a few posts that say the Windows 8.1 driver will work for Windows 10 as well, so you could try that too.  HP provides a free tool called HP Print and Scan Doctor to diagnose and resolve printing and scanning problems. I recommend downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor, if it doesn't fix it automatically let me know what errors or messages you receive.  Do you know if you are able to scan using Paint? To Scan from Paint: HP Multifunction Printers - How to Scan: Windows 8 
    (It's the same for Windows 10, from what I've been told)Right-click the Start button () in the lower left corner of the screen, click Search, and then type ...Click Paint in the results.Click File, and then click From scanner or camera.Select your printer, click OK, and then click Scan.  Have you tried just using the New Scanner app in Windows 10? It's the same as the one for Windows 8. Here are some resources;New Scanner app in Windows 10Scan app for Windows: FAQ
    And a Video link...    Please let me know if any of these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help.  I look forward to hearing from you!  Thanks, 

  • HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).

    I lost my original CD-Driver and I tried to download the CD-Driver on HP website but it doesn't work when I click printing.  It seems that my HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).
    Can anyone give me a link that works for installing driver for HP Laserjet P1006 for Windows 7 (64-bit)?  
    Thanks for helping!

    Hi @achieverone ,
    I can help you with finding the drivers for the Laserjet P1006.
    Just to clarify, you were able to install the printer software, but it just isn't printing correct?
    Here are the two drivers available for Windows 7 64 bit.
    HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver.
    HP LaserJet P1005/P1006/P1500 Printer Series Full Feature Software and Driver.
    Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.
    Open and close the lid five times quickly. It should print off a page with black lines on it.
    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?
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!
    Thank You.

  • HP Color LaserJet CP1520nw will not connect to network (time out repeatedly)

    My HP LaserJet CP1520nw won't connet to my wireless router upon installation, no many how many times I've been asked to connect it to the computer via a USB printer cable.   I uninstalled and reinstalled all software, and each time I try to set it up for wireless connectivity by connecting my computer and the printer via a USB printer cable, it gets to 99%  installed on the progress bar and sits there until it times out.  I suspect one of the follow but am open to other ideas from those more knowledgeable:
    1.  Is the printer locked onto some old, initial configuration from a previous wireless network that needs to be purged of addresses, etc. before it can accept the new ones?
    2.  Could my WPA WPA2 PSK AES encrytion be messing it up?  Are the modern firmware and updates designed to accept these ?  I never have gotten to a screen where it asks for my encyption key or even a WPS pass phrase.  What to do if so?
    3.  Could Church Lady be correct and that it is Satan preventing the installation?  If so, what icons does he use to watch out for and will my Norton anti-virus and malware quarantine him to Hell automatically or does it require manual enforcement?

    Hi @Marvalina1968,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I noticed that your HP Color LaserJet CP1520nw will not connect to network with Windows 7. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
    First to answer your questions:
    It is possible the printer could be locked to an old configuration and needs to be reset.
    I don't think your WPA WPA2 PSK AES encrytion could be messing it up, unless you got some really strange characters in your password.
    Your Norton antivirus, could possible be causing the installation to fail.
    Please take a look through the following guides:
    'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print.
    Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
    If the guides do not resolve the issue, please try the following:
    Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.
    Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
    Disable any antivirus programs. Disable antivirus software.
    Disable any firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.
    Re-install the software. HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    Hope this solves your problem, and have a good day!

  • Printer will not work: error code 0xc19a0022

    Printer will not work: error code 0xc19a0022

    Hello citizenED,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are getting the error code " 0xc19a0022 " .
    I do have a few steps that we can try. 
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    I have also located a document that deals with a 'Problem with Printhead,' 'Printer Failure,' 'Ink System Failure,' or a '0x...' or a 'C2...' Error ...
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    Thanks for your time.

  • YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads.

    YouTube will not work on safari for me on the ipad. Is there anyway to fix this? I can go anywhere else on the internet fine and it works on google chrome, but on safari it shows a blank screen with the bar on top after it loads, if it's even loading at all.
    I do not know if it's relevant or not, but I got a message on my ipad while on safari saying that my iPhone has a virus. I looked it up and it seems it might have just been an ad from the website I was on, but it happened around the same time YouTube stopped working.

    You will find that using the YouTube app will provide a better viewing experience for YouTube videos.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
