HP LaserJet 1200 series

HELP!
I've noticed recently that more and more fonts are not printing on my HP LaserJet 1220. So far, I have not found any updates to apply. Apple states drives are with OS 10.5. So, now what do I do?

Hi.
You may download the Universal Print Driver PCL5 below, it is compatible with both Windows 7 or 8 64-bit.
For USB select Plug n Play, for network select Tradiotional Mode and follow the steps by setting a TCP/IP Port with the IP Address of the printer:

  • HP laserjet 1200 series not responding

    I just got an hp laserjet 1200 series printer from a friend that used it on his pc. I can't seem to get my computer to recognize it. I have tried going to the hp page and downloading the driver and the software, which I thought I did, but when I open printer setup utility and look for new drivers, nothing appears. Any ideas?

    Is your printer connected through a hub or directly to the computer?

  • Install Failed for HP Laserjet 1200 Series in new Laptop with Windows 8, 64 Bit

    Product Name - HP Laserjet 1200 Series, PCL 6 Driver
    Operating System: Windows 8 Home Edition, 64 bit
    Error Message : Can't find the 1200 Series on the Network. To locate manually click ok ....
    Changes Made - This is an installation on new laptop, running Windows 8, 64 bit
    Description:
    1. Installing to an existing network, that consistedof a desktop and two wireless laptops.
    2. Both Laptops have Windows 7, 64 bit. Above named printer is successfully accessed from the laptops.
    3. Am replacing one of the laptops with the Windows 8 64 bit.
    4. The Series 1200 path is: Wireless Printer to Router, Router to Desktop via ethernet, Desktop to Printer via cable.
    5. The wireless printer configuration is

    Problem
    Unable to recreate this path with the Windows 8, 64 bit configuration.
    a. When I attempt to download a current driver always wind up with a file entitled UPD-pcl6-x64-5.6.0.14430
         This appears to be a universal PCL 6 printer driver, Can successfully unzip the file and create a folder
    b. During installation I can see the the desktop printer ICON (name:\\central\HPLaserj); so far, so good
    c. Process fails to locate a driver and instructs to manually locate.
    d. Browsing to the HP Universal Driver Folders fails because a driver cannot be found .
    e. Attempting to manuall enter fails because you cannot input the above address (\\central\HPlaserj). Can only enter HPLaserj for the address, which obviously does not work.
    f. When the installation did show a list of drivers, the only one I found was a universal PCL 6, which is what I thought I was trying to download originally.
    This set up worked successfully with the Windows 7 64 bit. It appears I need help from a lot more expertise than I have to walk me through this set up.

  • HP LaserJet 1200 Series- Spaces appearing in words of printed document

    I have an HP LaserJet 1200 series printer.  All of a sudden blank spaces began appearing in the footnotes of a document.  For example, "supra" printed as "s upra" numerous times in a row, "in" printed as "i n", and "whether" printed as "whether r".  The spaces do not appear on the computer screen.  I just attached another printer and the spaces disappeared.  Is there a way to fix my HP LaserJet 1200 series printer?  Thanks for any help!

    Hello eaw,
    The HP LaserJet 1200 is a commercial printer. For a better chance at finding a solution, I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support.
    Here is the link to the Commercial Laserjet board:

  • HP LaserJet 1200 series BW USB problem

    I am unable to re install my HP BW LaserJet 1200 series printer. My system is WIN XP PRO, SP3.
    The printer was working fine, then something happened and the printer is not listed in Device manager. The printer self check works OK,, but when I plug in the USB cable, there is no screen respons that a new USB device has been found. 
    Note , I have 2 flash drives attached to the USB ports that work OK.
    I tried to re install the 1200 series driver, but the printer is not  listed in Device manager.
    Any suggestions troubleshooting tips would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    I've often had this problem when I start a print but the 1200 is not connected, or for other reasons. I either:
    1. Turn the HP 1200 off then on; or
    2. Go to Print centre and delete the job.
    One of these always fixes the problem.

  • HP LaserJet 1200 Series + Updates

    I recently tried to update the driver of my printer (HP LaserJet 1200). After countless (manual) uninstalls and reinstalls, messing around in Terminal, i.a., I still cannot get Mac OS X 10.5 to recognize the new driver.
    If anyone is knowledgeable in this subject, I would be greatly appreciative. — A2

    My LaserJet 1200 works fine while connected over an Airport Express with OS 10.5.2. I did not have to download anything from the HP site. I just let the Bonjour configure it.

  • Saving Files through HP laserjet 1200 Series PCL

    Hi,
    So I was recently at the state library utilizing one of their amazing online grant resources only accessible from one of their PC computers ( no idea what version of windows ).  Instead of printing out 300+ pages of information, I chose to Print > Save as a File > chose the location and all seemed fine.  I have about 70 documents saved this way ( as there was no other way to save this web infomation, make sense? ).  I emailed the files to myself, and tried to open them on a Windows XP laptop and also on a Mac ( shooting in the dark ).  I tried opening them in Word, notepad, wordpad, reader, everything and all came up gibberish wiht the expetion of the top 6 lines giving information about the printer.  When I look under the file information, they are listed as "Document" files.
    I tried downloading the driver for the printer in order to open the files, no luck there either.  I opened the .exe file on the pc only to have several .DL_  / .HL_ files and no seeminly installed process.  As I do not actually own the printer, I don't know if this will even work.   Any ideas?? Or should I go back t othe Library and spend the hours printing??
    THANK YOU!
    kate

    The file is formatted for the library printer only.
    Can you save the data the you need in PDF format at the library?

  • Getting unknown error when printing with latest version(using HP Laserjet 1200). I can't print at all using this version. Able to print previously.

    I ceased to be able to print when the latest version of FireFox was
    downloaded. I can print from the same websites using I. E.
    My printer is a HP Laserjet 1200 series. I only get the error(an unknown error occurred while printing) when trying to print through FireFox. I can print email fine and any other instance as long as I'm not going through FireFox.

    Hello Josh,
    We are using a couple of EFI (Fiery) controllers with our Canon copiers and I have been told by Canon support that we need to be using the MacTel (Universal Binary) versions of drivers for Leopard. Luckily for us we have mostly new models of RIPs and the UB drivers exist for these models, but I know that they are not available for all models, which I believe includes your X3e.
    To determine if you have a driver or RIP issue, you could save the file as either PS or PDF and then use the EFI utilities, such as Command Workstation, to import the file to the RIP (select Process and Hold) and then see if you can print your multiple copies that way. If that works then you know that the RIP is probably okay.
    The next test would be to create a generic PS queue to the X3e and print using this queue. If this works then you can narrow your issue down to the driver.

  • LaserJet 1200 Econo Mode 300 dpi 600 dpi

    I just got a new HP tower, and when I hooked up the Laserjet 1200 series printer, It's printing very dark. I went into the control panel, as I had done in the past, and it doesn't show the economode tab for the toner, it says 300 dpi, 600 dpi, I've tried both and they both seem the same, not like the old economode. Please, can you tell me what is the best way to save toner. I do a lot of printing, and LOVE the Laserjet, I actually have two of them,  PS, Just got the hp p6110y tower- It's awesome.
    I thank you in advance for any assistance you might offer.

    Hi , I see by your post that you are unable to set the Econo mode and Print Density on the printer. I would like to help you.
    Did you download and install the latest HP LaserJet Pro Series Full Solution Software and Driver? Check Devices and Printers window and let me know how the printer name is listed. Can you send me a screen shot of the printer Properties please, so I can have a look at it. You could install a separate Universal driver for printing and you should have all the available options. Then the original driver can be used for scanning, just don't delete it from the Devices and Printers window.

  • HP Laserjet 1200 and Driver Updates

    On the "Download Drivers and Software" support page for the HP Laserjet 1200 printer, there is an option, "Automatically check to see if your driver needs updating".
    A machine that I am supporting is having a MS Word collating issue (sometimes works, sometimes doesn't) and I don't know if its a driver issue or not.  The machine is XP SP3.
    If I click on this link, obviously it will check the drivers, but:
    1) Will it give me the option to automatically update the drivers if it finds they are outdated, and
    2) How do I roll back to the old driver if the update introduces problems? 
    Since this potential driver update isn't going through the normal MS XP driver update routine in Device Manager, I'm leery that I won't be able to recover if something goes wrong.

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

  • Using CLI to enter Mac local list on 1200 Series

    I have a number of 1200 series Ap's that are set up for MAC Authentication based on a local list only. From the GUI these addresses are entered from the Advanced Security Screen.
    I wnt to find a method for entering them from the CLI but am running into a problem with the level 7 passwords that seem to be automaticly applied when the MAC addresses are added from the GUI.
    If I enter MAC 0011.22aa.33ff from the GUI and then look at the config from the CLI it looks like this:
    username xxx password xxxx
    username xxxx autocommand exit
    how do I do this from the CLI?

    Hi,
    I think if you need to enter lots of MAC Addresses into AP, the fastest way is to use CLI.
    Refer to the following doc on how to configure MAC from CLI. Look under "Local Authenticator Access Point - Step 11"
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/hw/wireless/ps4570/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a0080341e72.html#wp1039558
    If authentication is purely done via MAC, then you can do like the following example:
    AP#config t
    AP(config-radsrv)# user xxx password xxx group clerks mac-auth-only
    Probably you need to use notepad to list all MAC (as username & password), then copy &paste to your AP's CLI.
    Hope this helps.

  • Cannot add printer- get error message.  LaserJet 1200

    I recently bought a dual powered MacBook. It was working perfectly, and finding my printer both attached by USB, and wirelessly. It shows up as Bonjour LaserJet 1200. Suddenly, it stopped working, and cannot be added to the printer list. I get an error message,"client error message too long", or some other nonsense. I have several other computers, running OS X, and none of them have any problem sharing the printer, which is connected to an Airport Extreme remote base station. I have tried everything, and come up with no success. So eventhough the printer is recognized, with its address, and is sharable, it suddenly and without cause, cannot be added to the printer list, and thus I cannot print. Any suggestions. Peter
    Recent Dual MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I did. before and I did again. and then uploaded and installed new software and STILL get error 1282. the hp people told me there is nothing they can do it's an apple problem. I'm stumped. If you can think of anything else would appreciate it.

  • Printer driver for an HP LaserJet 1000 series for use with Windows 7

    The CD ROM HP LaserJet 1000 series printer driver is not recognized by my new Windows 7 PC. So the printer does not work. I've looked on the HP web site for compatible drives and get the hint that a Vista driver would work. Can someone please confirm if this possible and how this is accomplished? Thanks.

    Where did you find a hint that Vista drivers would work?  This page says:
    Your LaserJet model is not supported in Windows 7.
    For more information regarding upgrade programs and new product information, please visit the HP Trade-In/Trade Up website at www.hp.com/united-states/tradein/home_flash.html or directly from HP at www.hp.com .
    Additionally, this page says the Laserjet 1000 is not supported in Vista.
    If you are using the 32 bit version of Windows 7 it may be possible to download the XP drivers here and install them.

  • HP Color LaserJet 2550 series

    Hi,
    I installed the HP Printer Driver Pack available on the Apple site for my HP Color LaserJet 2550 series printer. It works, but there are some odd things here.
    First, the driver can't read the printer state. Like how much is left for each colour and things like that. It just says, No information available.
    Second, When I print after I already printed something else the printer will be unavailable according to the driver. I need to turn of the printer and back on for it to print again.
    Third, When there is an image on one of the pages (LibreOffice) it takes forever for that page to be printed.
    Via the App Store I get new versions of the driver pack, so I am up to date.
    Also, when I connect this same printer to my Laptop (Linux) everything works. These are HP drivers for Linux. My laptop can read the printer and ink/toner status. I don't have to turn off the printer after each job and images print a lot faster. Ok, real big high ress photos not, but normal images just roll out. Whilst on my Mac it takes minutes.
    So in my opinion there is something wrong with the driver. I reinstalled the printer, and due to some other issue I reinstalled OS X but the problem remained.
    I hope there is a resolution for this.
    Thanks,
    Ricardo

    I managed to get some success by rebuilding as described in another posting:

    Re: HP Laserjet 2550L prints one job then hangs 
    Jun 15, 2012 2:13 AM (in response to Fami R.)
    I had this issue too with my HP 2550. No more printing after the first printjob possible
    I managed to get the printer working as expected by removing the hp_io_enabler kext.
    sudo -s
    mkdir /Valhalla
    mv /System/Library/Extensions/hp_io_printerclassdriver_enabler.kext /Valhalla
    exit
    Wait for the systemcaches to be rebuilt and reboot. You can see if the caches are being rebuilt by opening the Activity Tool, the process is named kextcache.
    You need to have the Valhalla Folder in root of course.
    Not very mac-like, but it works
