Hi FawzyZayed,
Thank you for providing the screen shot. I can see that the printer is printing black all over the page. I would like to help you.
Inspect the toner cartridge for damage:
1. Remove the toner cartridge from the product and verify that the sealing tape has been removed.
2. Check the memory chip for damage.
3. Examine the surface of the imaging drum on the bottom of the toner cartridge.
CAUTION: Do not touch the roller (imaging drum) on the bottom of the cartridge.
Fingerprints on the imaging drum can cause print-quality problems.
4. If you see any scratches, fingerprints, toner on the drum or other damage on the imaging drum, replace the toner.
5. If the imaging drum does not appear to be damaged, rock the toner cartridge gently several times and reinstall it. Print a few pages to see if the problem has resolved.
I have provided a document for cleaning inside the printer and running a cleaning page, resetting the printer and checking the driver settings. Resolving Print Quality Issues.
Try printing a document again.
Let me know the results.
What kind of paper are you using?
Try another type of paper to see if you have the same results.
Are you using Genuine HP Toner?
What is the toner level?
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

  • LaserJet 1020 prints blank pages

    My LaserJet 1020 printer prints nothing but blank pages no matter what kind of print job I give it. The HP Print and Scan Doctor found nothing wrong, but when I printed a test page at the end of the Print and Scan Doctor's testing, the output paper was also blank. I installed a new cartridge because I thought the old one was out of ink, but the problem reoccurred very soon.

    Hi @tps1020 ,
    I see that you are having issues with the pages coming out blank. You have already replaced the toner and you still have the same results. I would like to help.
    Most likely it is a hardware issue with the printer or the software, since you replaced the toner and are having the same issue.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation. Make sure the USB cable is connected directly to the computer.
    Unfortunately there is no hardware self test for this model. Usually to find out if it is a hardware or software issue, you can print the hardware self test to determine this.
    Try and print a test page from the printer driver.
    Did it print?
    If the issue persists, uninstall and reinstall the software, just to rule that out.

    Test the printer again.
    Are you using Genuine HP Toner?
    Is the Ready light on the printer?

  • How can I determine how many pages my Laserjet 1020 printer has printed in its lifetime?

    I am trying to be proactive in determining whether I need to plan to replace my Laserjet 1020 printer.  I know that I have seen printouts from resellers/refurbishers which show the number of pages that a printer has printed in its lifetime.  I am just trying to figure out how to get this information from my printer so that I can see how much life it has left.  Can anyone tell me how to generate this report?
    Thanks!!

    Hi davesuff, 
    You should be able to view the pages printed by going into the driver. Let me know if this works?
    1. Printing Preferences
    2. Basics tab

  • HP LaserJet 1020 Printer - booklet printing (Operating System Windows XP)

    We were using above option earlier in HP Laserjet 1020 Printer. Presently, the printer is not responding to this option. We tried to reinstall several times using the driver software supplied with the printer but this particular option did not work. Rest of the normal functions of the printer is performing satisfactorily. Please advice us how to sort out this issue.
    More Details:Earlier, after complete printing the pages to be printed on one side, the printer will pause and the button will show red and blink. Also, while pausing, the monitor used to display "how to keep the bunch of papers already printd to be kept in the lower tray for printing on the backside of the sheets". Presently, the first phase is happening, ie., printing the bunch of papers on one side and the printer pasuses. Afterwards, the blinking of the red light, display on the monitor depicting how to keep the sheets in the lower tray for continuing the balance of the print is not appearing. Since there is no indication or response we are forced to "end task", and come out of the situation.
    With regards and best wishes

    Hi 
    You can try running the following utility at the link below. It sounds like a network issue since you are able to print fine when you give the users admin rights.

  • HP Laserjet 1020 printer not printing at all

    I have this HP Laserjet 1020 printer that I loaned to a friend when her computer died and since I got it back no matter what I do it won't print on my desktop (HP Pavilion Media Center a1324n Desktop PC)  it prints without problem with my laptop and I've done nothing to the laptop to make it work etc, however on my desktop I've uninstalled, re-installed and downloaded all the latest drivers etc trying to get it to work but without success. 
    When I hit the print button, the green ready light is on, then briefly the red trouble light goes on, the printer starts whirring, then the red light goes off, the green light stays on the whole time and the unit stops whirring.  I check the print status box it shows the print job in the que as printing but nothing is happening so I sit and wait for a while (a couple of minutes) and then out of frustration I cancel and delete the print job, turn the printer off, the print job disappears from the print dialogue box and I turn the printer back on it whirs and the does nothing. I've repeated this process multiple times and then I pull my hair out.  Now I'm bald.  I used to look like Brad Pit (in my dreams) help me before I start looking like golum in lord of the rings.
    Ernie

    That is pretty straightforward.  The printer does not respond to the print command.  Help!!!!

  • Laserjet 1020 printer doesn't work through airport express. PLEASE help me

    Hi everyone. I've just bought a laserjet 1020, and though I can perfectly "see" it through the airport admin utility, there is no way to have a page printed. Works perfectly when connect it to the laptop through usb though. I have already tried every iFelix solutions, changed drivers (HP 1022, etc.), bonjour for windows, manual configurations, etc. Is there something else out there that I didn't figure out? Please help me. I'm in one of those moments where there are no more ways left to check out in google. I will really appreciate any advice.
    Regards,
    Martin.

    There are issues with regard to HP and Apples.
    I take it that your Laserjet is plugged into the XP computer and that you are tryiny to print to it over a network.
    Try this:
    Go to System Preferences> click on "+" to "Add Printer", at the next page click on "More printers", this should then bring up a box with the name of your network in it. It will then show the name of your Apple and that of the PC into which the LAN cable from the router is plugged, click on this PC and the next box should throw up the name of the printer, click on this, then DON"T click on ADD but on the slot with "Generic" showing, you can then scroll down the list to Laserjet, click on that and find the "Gimp" version of the driver with your printer's model number, this is the one you should ADD.
    Now this may work first time, unlikely given Apple's track record of network printing foul ups; you may have it print only a 1/4 page. If this happens, try "ADDing" a driver from higher up the Laserjet range; this is what I had to do to get my Canon iP3000 to work (I use the iP8000 driver with reasonable success)
    There are also CUPS+GIMP drivers in the list; with the Canon these just printed a 1/4 page of solid black, nice for the ink manufacturers, but expensive for us!
    The Gimp drivers are a third party product, 2 years out of date, and for which Apple accept no responsibility.

  • My iMac Not Working With My HP Laserjet 1020 Printer

    Hello Everyone,
    Ok here is the problem my HP LaserJet 1020 has been working fine up until i upgraded to Snow Leopard i am currently running (10.6.2) and i have had heaps of issues with Snow Leopard i just don't know whats wrong with it i thought it was supposed to be Finely Tuned. Anyway back on topic so i put in my HP LaserJet 1020 Disc install some stuff and then i go to Add a new printer via System Preferences and it either Freeze when i click Ok or i have to Quit the process and Add a new printer again, guys i just cant seem to get my HP LaserJet 1020 and i really need it working i run a website and i need to pint things of for documentation this is really doubting that i buy a Mac and a printer dose not even work on it i mean in the Snow Leopard manual it says Printer Driver Updates i thought it meant it would be much easier and simpler but no its all back to the hard ways.
    Anyways guys if there is anyone that can help me get my HP LaserJet 1020 to work it would be much appreciated because i havent had much errors or issues with Mac in the past until now this sudden upgrade to Snow Leopard.
    Current Operating System:
    Mac OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.2
    iMac 4 Inch/ 500GB HDD/ 4GB RAM /2.93 GHz
    Thanks Your Help Would Be Very Much Appreciated

    Hi maxskingsley,
    If you are still unable to print from your iMac, the first thing to check wouId be that the printer and the iMac are on the same network.
    Now if both devices are on the same network, next I would suggest an uninstall, and reinstall of the software for the printer. To start, I have included the document 'Uninstalling the Printer Software' http://bit.ly/1amRotF. Please click on your operating system, and follow through the steps.
    When the software is uninstalled, you will need to reset the printing system of your Mac. I have included the document 'OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system' http://bit.ly/1bS2qrh. At this point you do not have to re-add the printer. After resetting the print system on the Mac, the next step will be to complete a verify and repair of the disk permissions. I have included the document 'Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions' http://bit.ly/1bjFnnP. For step 3, the disk that you do want to select is the hard drive. One the repair of the disk permissions is complete, please restart your Mac.
    At this point you will need to reinstall the software for your printer. I have included a link to download the 'HP Officejet 4620 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Drivers - OS X 10.9 Mavericks' http://bit.ly/1lC0Orf. After the download has completed, please open the software, and follow through the on screen instruction for installing the printer.
    The last step will be to make sure that you have all the latest updates from Apple. Please click on the Apple icon, and then Software Update. Please install all available updates.
    Now please try to print from the iMac. Are you able to print successfully?
    Regards.

  • Airport Express Base Station and HP Laserjet 1020 printer connected

    Dear all,
    I have a Laptop (PC) Sony Vaio PCG-Z1XSP and an Airport Express Base Station which work perfectly together (internet access and I-tunes). I recently bought a printer HP Laserjet 1020 and connected it to the Airport Express USB soket. I managed to make it work and print a couple of times, but as soon as I turn off the printer or the computer or Airport Express, the next time I want to print, it doesn't work anymore.
    The Airport Admin Utility recognises the printer (I can see it listed). I have updated the Airport Express software to the Firmware version 6.3 as well as downloaded the latest driver available on HP's website for my printer. I've also substituted the USB cable. Can anybody help me here? Thank you very much and best regards.

    Hallo everybody,
    Thanks for all the answers. I have contacted HP's chat online and gone through the problem with 3 different technicians. I've tried a lot myself too. The issue was partially solved by restarting the printer spooler, i.e. stop, then start and then restart it.
    However after I was so happy that the printer worked, I turn off everything. When I turn on again, it was not working anymore. Then I tried to see by exclusion what the problem is, I had to restart the Hardwar I don't know how many times.
    Conclusion:
    1. The USB cable must be plugged into the airport express before turning on anything.
    2. Turn on the printer first.
    3. Turn on the airport express and the computer.
    4. If you try to print it doesn't work, even if you reset the airport express through the airport express utility software. The printer is recognized and appears in it though.
    5. Disconnect the USB cable from the airport express and connect it to the PC directly.
    6. Print a document.
    7. Disconnect the cable and reconnect it to the airport express.
    8. Now you should be able to print wireless. You may need to reset the airport expresst with the utility softwar, but I managed to print without having to do it.
    9. The pörinter works even if you turn off and on again the computer, or you suspend the windows session and restart it, or if you put it in standby and restart it.
    10. The printer works even if you turn off the airport express and the computer, or the airport express alone and restart them/it.
    11. The printer doens't work anymore if you turn it off and onn again. In such a case you have to plug in/out as discribeb above.
    Solution: Leave the printer always on, or make the plug in/out every morning when you start the computer and print one page direclty before being able to print wireless.
    Does anybody have a solution to this problem? I mean it prints, but it is annoying to plug in/out every day, no?
    HP's technician says that it is not a recommanded solution the HP Laserjet 1020 with the airport express, since the printer works on a host based server basis... I mean it is easy to say that, but one expects to buy a printer that works always and not to have to plug in/out everyday, restart spooler and so on.
    Can anybody comment or suggest anything I can do to avoid this? Thank you and I hope this helps others too.

  • HP LaserJet 1020 print jobs sticking in spool.

    Hi Guys,
    I have a problem were as I have a HP LaserJet 1020 setup as a share printer on a pc; my problem is that when 2 particular pcs send print jobs to the printer they actually get stuck in the spool, it is not a case of the spool service crashing just that these documents would not print or delete, unless the spool service is restated on the machine the drivers are installed on, and in some cases that does not even work, and the machine it self has to be restarted.
    I tried installing the printer on another machine and get the same problem from only these particular machines, for the time being those users are not allowed to print, but this cannot be along term soloution, can anyone help me with this situation urgently.
    Strangely enough the printer was installed and workinf perfectly on one of thes machines before the machine was moved out of the department then back.
    Thanks.
    Rico,
    P.S. Oh all the machines are XP machines.
    I tried downloading the drivers from the website and that did not help.

    A batch file was created to restart the spooling service when this happens, but as stated earlier this is not a permanent fix.

  • HP Laserjet 1020 Print Wirelessly Via Time Capsule?

    Is it possible to set up an HP Laserjet 1020 to print wirelessly via time capsule? I already know I have to use the 1022 driver, and my printer works perfectly when the usb is plugged into my Macbook air. I plugged it into the new time capsule I just bought and added it on my Macbook as a network printer, but it wont print. Any tips or suggestions would be extremely helpful! Thanks in advance!

  • Laserjet 1020 printing alignment

    I am using a Laserjet 1020 on Windows XP, connected via USB.  When printing documents from Word 2007, Print Preview shows the document as I want it to be, but when it actually prints, it comes out about half an inch higher up the page.  Nothing is cut off, it's just condensed and no longer aligned the way it shows up in preview.  This is particularly an issue when printing labels, for which I use the Avery Wizard, but of course the printing does not align with the labels.
    I also run an HP DeskJet F380 All-in-One and when I print the same document to that one, it prints perfectly, which leads me to assume that it is a problem with the printer itself rather than any settings I might be using in Word.
    If anybody is able to help I would very much appreciate it.
    Thanks and regards,

    You can try using the Universal Print Driver to see if that fixes the problem.  If that doesn't work, you can try bypassing the print spooler.  If neither of those work, I'm afraid you're stuck with the work around you've found.
