HP LaserJet 1102w printer settings on WRT54G2-V1 lost after power is turned off

I have installed the HP drivers for my HP LaserJet 1102w printer on my Windows 7 (64 bit) Professeional and Windows XP laptops.They both print fine over the network using the WRT54G2-V1 router immediately after installing the drivers. However after shutting down either the computers or printer the settings are lost and the printer willl not work unless the drivers are reloaded.
In talking with HP support they are telling me this printer is not compatible with the router, which I find hard to believe given most backward compatibility built into printers today and the fact it initially works before it is shut off. Can anyone offer some suggestions on how to configure my router to support the printer or verify if the information I received from HP support is valid.
Thanks!

The trick is to set the printer's IP Address manually so has a static IP address. See the user manual for the printer (I think this may be the user manual for the OP's printer). If so see page 28 for how to set the IP Address to manual on the printer.
IP address
The product IP address can be set manually, or it can be configured automatically using DHCP, BootP,
or AutoIP.
To change the IP address manually, use the HP Embedded Web Server.
1. Open the HP Embedded Web Server, and then click the Networking tab.
2. In the navigation pane, click the IPv4 Configuration link or the IPv6 Configuration link.
3. In the IP Address Configuration section, click the Manual IP option.
4. Type the required data in the Manual IP Address box, the IP Subnet Mask box, and the Manual
Deault Gateway box.
5. Click the Apply button.
You will need to set the IP address for the printer outside of the range the router's DHCP server has reserved and hands out to clients. For example if the router is configured to use it's default IP address of 192.168.1.100 with 50 client addresses reserved, try setting the printer to 192.168.1.200 and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. If the printer drivers were previously installed and configured they will either need to be removed and reninstalled so they use the new printer IP address, or reconfigured so they point to the new IP address of the printer.

Printer prints but display says Communication lost (device - control panel); Turn off then on.

HP Color LaserJet CM3530fs
The printer is printing when asked to do so by a computer but the display says:
Error
Communication lost (device <-> control panel); Turn off then on.
The orange attention light is illuminated and the display is always lit and shows the statement above.
It does not improve when switched off and on or power disconnected for long periods or pushing reset button at rear of unit.
Embedded web server works normally and thinks that all is ok.
Buttons on control panel do nothing. eg. I cannot photocopy or scan.
The printer is about 2 years old but gets very light use in a family home.
Please help
Thank you.

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

Power was turned off on my devices, iMac, HP Laserjet P1505 - Can't print!

Hi all,
I can't print anymore after turning off all the power to my devices – the printer is plugged into the USB, the iMac see's the printer but when it goes to print the printer flashes the alert lite for a second and then the printer dialogue box just tells me 'sending print data...' has been up there for an hour...
I have reset the printing system and re-installed the printer and no luck! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Hi Tom,
If the printer is less then a year old, you might want to call 1-800-HP invent (800-474-6836), witch is hp phone support hotline.
One thing you may want to try, is try to get your printer to print out it's self test page. Some times the printer will print out instructions, such as place the printed test page onto the scanner and press the scan button.
It would be helpful to know what model of printer you have.

I have same problem - this doesn't help. Did you did something that worked?

HT1338 problems with Mac Book 10.7.5 printing wirelessly with HP Photosmart 6510e. I must turn off then turn back on for Mac to print.

HP Photosmart prints with PC, Droid phone but will only print wirelessly with MacBook OX 10.7.5 if I turn off printer and turn it back on. HP has tried, Belkin (router) has opened all ports, the problem persists.

That is great, but I recommend channel 11 instead of 10.

Can't turn off twitter text in iphone4s. Tried settings, notifications, twitter is not an app there. Also tried settings, sounds, tweet, none, and still won't turn off notification for twitter texts.

Can't turn off twitter text notifications. I tried settings, notifications, but the notification center doesn't have the twitter option. I also tried settings, sounds, tweet, none- for alert tones. This is still not turning it off. Twitter people said it's not their problem. Is anyone having this problem?

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

My popups won't work. Ex....I can't print an email from Yahoo. Popup blocker is turned off

I just got a pc with windows 8 and I can't use firefox as I can't print emails from yahoo for example....i am assuming that's a popup window that isn't working, but i have pop ups enabled.

Usually Firefox's built-in popup blocker won't block a window if you clicked a link or button to open it. It is designed to block windows that open without you taking a specific action.
One possibility is that the link/button is in a part of the page that is "blocked" by an invisible element. Another possibility is that the script that opens the window is not running correctly.
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

I have a iphone 4s and the wifi settings on my phone randomly went grey and turned off and i dont know how to fix it any ideas?

My wifi isnt working need to know how to fix it because now im using all my data, not sure how to fix it hoping someone will know

How exactly does someone search for a resolution to an issue without the specifics of the issue?
The iPhone never displays any errors with "something about programming".
Before you go any further, stop being vague. READ the error message and post the precise text of the message here or google it. Otherwise you risk wasting time, losing data, or possibly bricking the device by doing unnecessary and irrelevant troubleshooting.

Lose settings after power cycle.

I noticed the iPhone (firmware 1.1.1) will occassionally lose internet WAP settings for my carrier after power cycling (turning off then back on). The top left menu displays the correct wireless carrier and has the "E" for EDGE coverage but fails to access the network via EDGE for email/internet browsing due to the WAP settings are erased. I have to then enter the WAP settings again. Has anyone else experienced this?

I reinstalled my firmware but couldn't find a solution to this. After installing the latest firmware 1.1.2 I no longer experience the issue with the reset settings.

Cannot enable ePrint Web Services - get internet connection error for HP LaserJet 1102W

I have a HP laptop running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. We just changed over to Comcast internet service from AT&T where my HP LaserJet 1102W was set up for ePrint. After several hours, I was finally able to add the 1102W printer to the Comcast network, access the Embedded Web Server tool and print wirelessly but I cannot set up ePrint. I have deleted the printer but cannot get it to connect to Web Services. I keep on getting: Connection Error. Check Internet Connection but again, I can print wirelessly successfully to the printer but would like to be able to set it back up for ePrint. My Comcast router is an Arris TG862.
I have updated the firmware and used the HP Print and Scan Doctor tool but still am not able to get the ePrint Web Services to connect. Here is the information from the Networking page of the EWS:

Hi Surf1981,
I understand that you're not able to enable web services on your printer. I would try steps listed below.
1. Open an internet browser type printer's IP address.
2. Should bring you to the printer's status page.
3. Select networking tab at the top.
4. Left hand side select Network Identification.
5. Under DNS address Configuration select Manual DNS Server.
6. For Preferred enter 8.8.8.8
7. For Alternate enter 8.8.4.4
8. Select apply. You might get a warning saying this could interrupt connection that's fine.
9. Turn printer off for about 30 seconds then try again.

Missing "Print Settings" in Canon printer dialog

Hi,
I've Googled all over for this, but I haven't found an answer to this particular question. Maybe someone in here would know?
I want to print a photo from Lightroom 3 on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. I have a Canon MP800R printer. I want Lightroom to manage the color, and I'm able to choose the glossy paper profile I want in the Print Job pane in Lightroom. However, when I click Print and get to the part where I should turn off color management in the printer dialog I'm not able to do so. There is no Print Settings section in the dialog box. As far as I understand, all the important stuff goes on in this Printer Settings section, see http://www.computer-darkroom.com/lr2_print/lr2-print.htm. Why don't I see Print Settings?
I should add that if I go ahead anyway with Lightroom managed printing the colors are off, but if I use Managed by Printer the colors look decent.
Jan

OK and to be sure: Do you have Color Management by Printer set to OFF ?
It's under -I have a Canon Pixma 5000- Color Intensity-
then:
That works fine here.
(btw A Canon photoprinter like the Pixma 4820 is very good and cheap.)

No Print Settings for Epson printer

I have an Epson 1400, and it was working fine this morning. I usually go to Print Settings to select my glossy paper. But just now, when I went to print, and tried to click the Print settings... button, nothing happens. I have tried using Software Update and installed the latest Epson Printer Software, and tested several other applications, and the printer is connected and working fine in those.
This is PS 12.1 for Mac.
Thanks

Well, looks like I'm dumb. I misread Solution 1. It suggested that I Choose Printer Manages Color, return to Photoshop Manages Color, and then choose Print Settings. This worked perfectly after I realized it meant PS couldn't use the printer to manage color in the case of my printer.
Anyway, you saved my you-know-what!
Thanks again,
J.

Change default print settings in PS

I was wondering if anyone knows how I could change the default print settings so that crop marks and labels are turned on by default. I've tried using automator, and making an action but haven't had any luck. Thanks.
Marcus

anyone??
It would also be nice to have a default set of commands under print settings, like paper size, media type, color management, etc.

Disableing the printer color management in the printer settings box

Hello
I am printing on a Epsonstylus r1800 printer using windows 8.. Printer has new drivers v6.55 The Adobe print setup reminds me to disable the printer color management in the print settings box. I can't find where to do this in the print settings box. Resulting in color that is way off. Any thoughts?

Must be done in the printer driver.
This is an example for the Epson 3880
First click on Print settings and in the dialog that opens look for Color Adjustment but that differs with the printer model...

Turn off color management in printer driver?

Hello folks:
When I select an icc color profile in Aperture 3 in the Print dialog box, a warning pops up that says "Turn off Color Management in the Printer Driver." I have an Epson R2880, but for the life of me I cannot find a way to turn it off in the driver. Any thoughts? The Epson Printer Utility is also of no help.
Thank you!
--David

Understanding that I have not actually used ColorJunki:
-- A printer is always going to have something manage color. Either an ICC profile at the application level, or the printer driver.
-- The warning is poorly worded. It means "Turn off the PRINTER color management and let Colorsync manage colors." Thus on the greyed out screen you will see that Colorsync is selected.
-- To use a printer profiler you normally print a target sheet. Your software should tell you what settings to use.
-- Next you read the target sheet and the profiler makes you an ICC profile of your printer/paper combination. (The same process that Canon, Epson, Red River, Illford, et al. follow.)
-- You can now use your new, ColorMunki created ICC profile to soft proof your image as you adjust it and, finally,
-- You use that same profile to print. (Remember, the profile is specific to a printer/paper combination and you will still have to set Quality/Media correctly for the paper.)
By selecting the correct ICC profile on the first print screen, you automatically kill printer color management and, with a bit of luck, a good profile, and clement atmospheric conditions, you will actually get a good print.
Trust me on this, I have been getting great prints from Aperture for years. My only gripe is that AP3 no longer lets me at the color options which I used to tweak for my cheap and cheerful Costco paper.
