HP Laserjet 1320 and OS 10.4.4

Ok, my print queue keeps stopping the job.
I have downloaded the latest drivers, reset the print system, rebooted, restarted the printer, tried a different USB cable, even tried a different 1320 all to no avail.
HELP! I'm about to pull my hair out.

This page may be of help, particularly the part about removing the file: HD/System/Library/Extensions/hpLaserJet_1320series.kext.
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c00278342
You may not have to do the other things this page suggests; removing the kext may be sufficient.
Hope this helps.

Printing problems with HP laserJet 1320 and new Intel iMac

My new Intel iMac won't print to my HP 1320 from Eudora or from web browsers. The applications "quit unexpectedly". From Safari, nothing happens.
I can print PDF documents and Office documents with no problems. The Intel is connected to a router via Airport. The printer is connected to the router via Ethernet. My old G4 iMac prints fine (connected to router via Ethernet) as does my G4 laptop (connected via Airport).

A post from another threat that might help.

Solution!!!
Just spent 90 minutes with some nice folks in level 1 and level 2 support.
Problem seems to be that I used migration utility to import the soul of my old machine into the new machine. When you do that, you bring along the old print system (PPC vs Intel).
I had upgraded to 10.4.5 after the migration and assumed that it would correct any problem like that, but it had not.
After a great deal of trial and error, the solution was to go to move disk/library/printers to the desktop and restart the system
Then use the the install disk 1 that came with the iMac and use the OPTIONAL INSTALLS package to reinstall the printer drivers.
Worked like a champ.
Suspect similar problem might happen for any of you with I/O drivers.

HP Laserjet 1320 will not print ?selected pages

I have the HP Laserjet 1320 and when in a Word document and I want to print a selected page (i.e. page 2 of 4 only), under Pages on the Print Menu, I enter 2 or 2-2 and select print and it will not print! I can scroll down to place the pointer on page and tell it to print "current page" and it will print - why will it not print when I enter the page number I want to print.
Thanks

My printer would not print multiple copies. It would only print one page at a time.

Laserjet 1320 on win 7 (64bit) - cannot access from a networked XP Pro machine?

I have a Laserjet 1320 and a Officejet 6450 attached to a win 7 (64bit) machine - both work fine.
Have a home workgroup network established with an XP pro machine. Both printers are "shared" etc..
I can access the Offiejet from the XP machine, but cannot get access to the Laserjet. Claims that
the proper Driver cannot be located. Have downloaded the PCl5 driver to the Win 7 machine, but when
I point the XP machine to the HP PCL5 Driver folder on the win 7 machine it still cannot find the proper driver.
Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Don
Thanks for the reply.
The version of Visual Studio being used is 2002 (getting on a bit now).
We had a play about with the way we installed the MSI installer we had created that installs the Crystal Reports runtimes (merge modules) and managed to get it to work on both Windows 7 32bit and 64bit.
The solution was a weird one, but seemed to work (but was different to what I had done before to get it to work). We made sure the MSI was local on the PC and right-clicked the MSI and selected the ''Troubleshoot Compatibility' ' option. Not 100% why this would work, but it seems to have done the trick.
Many thanks for your help.
David.

LaserJet 1320 not being recognized, really strange

Hello all,
I'm having a really strange problem that I think is mostly my fault. I just recieved a LaserJet 1320, and when I first hooked it up everything worked fine.
However, I couldn't figure out how to do duplex printing, so I installed HP's Toolbox software. A big mistake, and I ended up having to manually delete all of the file it put in /Library.
Anyhow, now my Mac won't recognize the printer at all. Print Setup Utilities shows nothing. I've reinstalled the HP PPDs from my Tiger CD, still nothing.
The Printer works (Tested on an old Linux Box) and the USB ports on my Mac work, but still I can't get the printer to be recognized.
*pulls out hair*
Any help would be welcomed.
Thanks,
Clark
Powerbook G4 1.5 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I had the same problem with a friends computer.
She had put the CD in also.
I nearly lost the will to live trying to fix it so I plugged it into my powerbook to see if the printer was OK. I could print perfectly.
I then copied the printer from username/Library/Printers/ folder and then dropped in into her printers folder. It worked brilliantly. All you need is another mac that has never been near an HP install CD.

LaserJet 1320, blinking sign interrupts printing

Hello,
When printing on LaserJet 1320, the process in the PC goes well and the document is sent to the printer. But the printer doesn't do the job - the sign "!" starts blinking as well as the green button is lit. I checked the manual and it says:
1. Manual feed - no, I don't feed manually
2. Out of paper for the specified tray - there is enough paper
3. General continuable error - what kind of error is that?
4. Memory configuration error - tried to add an extra 64 MB RAM, no effect
5. Personality/Job related error - tried to print different things, all with the same effect.
So, I tried many things and I came up with one thing - if I push the green button the "!"-sign stops blinking and the printer suddenly starts printing and there are no further problems. But, this is not an option to go press the button each and every time you print, so how do I fix this problem?
Thanks in advance!

You can check to see if your printer device driver is up to date if you are running a Windows operating system through hp.com. At the home page, click on "Support and drivers", then "See support and troubleshooting" and enter your product name (laserjet 1320). Click Go. Choose the model of laserjet 1320 you have from the product list. On the right side of the resulting screen above a pink box advertising the support chat option, you'll see a link to "Automatically see if your driver needs updating". Click on it and follow the steps.
I had this problem and discovered I had to change some options in the printer driver. If you have Windows, get to the Printers and Faxes through your Start button. Right click on the laserjet 1320 and choose properties. Click on printing preferences. My software didn't like having the paper type be automatic, I had to change it to plain. You may have similar problems with the settings for paper source or paper size if they are on automatic.
Some software allows you to adjust the printer properties from the application itself. Use the file, print option and see if there is a Printer Properties button in the dialog box that come up. If so, that may be an easier way to access these settings.

HP LaserJet 1320 Duplex Printing Not working with Windows 7

Hi
I've just bought a new PC with Windows 7 Home Premium. I have an HP LaserJet 1320 printer (Prod no. Q5927A, SN CNGW53RLRY).
I cannot find driver that works the same way as the previous driver HP LaserJet PCL5. If I use this driver and can still get duplex printing but it will only print one copy at a time.
If I upgrade to HP Universal Printing PLC (or PLC v5) I can print multiple copies but not duplex printing. I have searched high and low through the HP site but to no avail.
Any help and advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks
GB

Hello,
I've seen this same issue with my printers (other HP printers) whereby the default setting to support the Duplexing hardware was set to 'off'.
A quick method to check this is look at what the setting is for Duplex hardware in the Device Settings tab, and if it's not set, correct it.
Printer Properties:
From the 'Start' orb -> [Devices & Printers] -> right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printer Properties' -> click on 'Device Settings' tab.
You should see a dialog similar to the mine (attached): look for the 'Duplex unit (for 2-sided printing)' and see if it's set to "Not Installed":
--> in either case, click on 'Not installed' and from the dropdown box, select 'Installed'... Click 'OK' to accept the changes and close the dialog.
Printing Preferences:
again, right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printing Preferences' -> click on 'Advanced' tab.
-->Check to see if there is a 'Duplex Hardware' or '2-sided printing' option in here: mine doesn't show one but thougth I'd mention it nonetheless.
Click on the 'Finishing' tab and select 'Print on both sides'...or simply test print a multi-page document and set those preferences on-the-fly.
Let me know if this helps...

Windows 7 system cannot network print to LaserJet 1320

Recently our office got a new Windows 7, 64-bit laptop, and for the past three days I have been unable to get it to print though the network to our HP LaserJet 1320. I can connet it via the USB cable and print directly to the printer, however, I recive an "unalbe to connect" error with all attempts to connect to the printer through the network .
The LaserJet 1320 is conncected to an XP system and shared over the network. Three other XP systems and two Linux systems can connect and print to it just fine. Also the Windows 7 laptop has been able to print to a shared HP DeskJet 6980 and an ancient Lexmark 4039 though the network.
It does not appear to be a network issue. I've tried varous versions of the HP Universal Printing driver, but so far not has been able to connect though the network. Is there one in particualr I should try? Does the Universal printing driver not support network printing?
Thanks! Any help with this probelm will be greatly appreciated.

Never mind solved my issue using the specific vista x64 (on windows7) driver rather then using the universal print driver...
Might fix your issue with network shared printer.

HP LaserJet 1320 requires user intervention to print after Leopard

Ever since upgrading to Leopard, almost every single time I send a print job to my HP LaserJet 1320 (over the network, it actually connected to a PowerMac G5 in my office), it triggers an error warning (orange flashing light) on the printer. Pressing the main green print button lets the job print, but this is really annoying.
I checked and Apple recently posted a note about the HP LaserJet 1200 having a very similar problem except that an error page was printed after each job. The workaround they suggest for this doesn't work with the LaserJet 1320 problem, however.
A quick Google reveals at least one other Leopard using HP LaserJet 1320 owner is seeing a similar issue. And actually, as I composed this post, I found some 1320 owners in another Apple Discussion post about HP printer issues with Leopard. They suggested using the generic PostScript driver, but then I really like to have the ability to duplex.
Nothing in the /private/var/log/cups/error_log file of note as far as I can tell.
Any ideas? Any other people out there experiencing this problem who might have a solution (other than switching to a generic postscript driver)?

Ok, I think I've figured a way to make the laserjet 1320 stop requiring "user intervention" (e.g. pressing the green button for every printjob).
Try the following:
Open "System Preferences" -> Choose "Print & Fax" -> Choose the Laserjet 1320 printer -> Press button "Options and Supplies..." -> Select Driver "tab" -> In the drop-down-menu "Fit to page" choose "Nearest Size and Scale" instead of "Prompt User".
The chosen driver should be "HP Laserjet 1320 series", because the generic postscript printerdriver dosen't have the duplex option amongst other shortcomings.
I find it odd that the lowest memory-option is 16-31mb of ram. The default configuration of 16mb is not IN that range, but maybe that is a little too nitty-gritty.

HP LaserJet 1160 and Airport Express

I recently got an HP LaserJet 1160le and wanted to hook it up to my network using an Airport Express. I have used other printers with the airport express in its current config with no problems, but now I have an issue.
If i plug the printer directly into my powerbook via USB, the driver is automatically detected and everything is spiffy. When I add the printer through Bonjour, it doesn't detect the driver. The 1160 and 1320 are nearly identical and the drivers are almost the same, so I choose the 1320 driver.
When I print i get a single page with a few lines that state:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0 %RBINumCopies: 1
There are a few more lines but nothing that really seems to point to the problem. When I try and add the same printer to an XP Pro machine the Bonjour Printer Wizard tells me I don't have proper privillages to add the printer through Bonjour. Anyone have any ideas or solutions?

Just as a quick sidenote, I failed to mention that I was able to get it to work on my XP Pro machine selecting 1100 series as my driver. It seems this is only related to my two macs.

Hp laserjet 1320 not working with new mac

i've recently bought a new apple computer, the mac runs with os x 10.9.2.
now i'm trying to get my old hp laserjet 1320 to work together with my new computer - but neither the mac is cooperating nor the old laserjet. i've also installed a new hp officejet pro 8600 - this printer/scanner/fax works well, but i also wanted to use my old laserjet until i run out of printing cartrigdes )
thanks for the help!!!

Hello nyc213,
It sounds like you are unable to use your LaserJet printer with your computer. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article named:
OS X Mavericks: Solve printing problems
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14142
Check the printer
Go to the printer and check the following:
It’s turned on and is displaying normal status lights.
It has paper, and the paper isn’t jammed.
It has enough ink or toner.
Its cables are properly connected.
If your printer is attached to your computer’s USB port, open System Information, then click USB. If the printer’s name appears in the hardware list but the printer doesn’t work, review the printer’s documentation for further troubleshooting information.
Check your device’s USB connection
If the printer is on the network, open Printers & Scanners preferences, then add the printer again to create a new printer queue. For instructions, see:
Set up a printer
Use the best software for your printer
Make sure you have the correct version of your printer’s software (also called its printer driver).
If you’re using a printer that another user is sharing, make sure you’re both using the same version of the printer software. To find out which version you’re using, select the printer in Printers & Scanners preferences, click Options & Supplies, then click General. Note the driver version.
If you’re using a network printer or a printer attached to your Mac, make sure you have the latest version of the software for the printer. If you still have problems, try different printer software for your printer.Change or update printer software
If you still can’t print, reset the printing system.
Reset the printing system
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

HP Laserjet 1320 not printing PDF files

I can't print PDF or JPG files from my MacBook Pro to my HP Laserjet 1320, connected on USB. MS Word files are printing fine and so are Test Print commands. This has morphed today from an earlier problem a few days where only the 1st page of PDF documents was printing. The printer blinks the green light for a while and then goes back to normal. The Print Box on the Mac says "Printing - Sending Data to Printer" for a while, and then the file name, etc disappear, and everything is back to normal, as if nothing ever happened. Meanwhile MS Word files go on printing without any problem.

I have been experiencing the same problem.
(I moved from 10.6.8 to 10.10.2)
I did a lot of searching and these two steps have helped. (possibly fixed it for good?)
Run "Disk Utility" —> Verify Disk Permissions (Repair any errors)
The printer settings need to be reset. (see link below) NOTE: You will lose all the printers in your system settings and have to reinstall them.
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18614?locale=en_US
Please note that HP does not have a update for 10.10.2 for this model.
The last driver version from HP is: 19.8
Adobe does not have a plug-in update that I can find, yet...
The more you change the settings as you use each proram (firefox, word, numbers, safari, adobe reader) the worse the problem seems to get. I would suggest that you pick one setting and keep it. (Program based settings seem to be less prone to errors.)
Let me know if this helps.

Hp laserjet 1320 - networkin problems - networking solution

hi
i had the same problems like some of you with the hp laserjet 1320 n while using this printer in a network.
here is a solution that may work:
connect the printer directly (not via router) to the computer, reset the network settings ofthe printer (press button on the back near the rj-45 connection for 5 sec while starting the printer). wait for 5 min!!!, then print the network status (press shortly the same button onthe back of the printer). read the ip adress, which the printer had given himself. the go to safari an type in the adress. now you are getting connected to the printers settings. set the ip to dhcp an give the printer a certain number inbetween your ip range of your dhcp settings in the tc/ip (mostly 192.168.x.x). then you can disconnect an connect the printer back to the network-router.
then print center: thrwo away old 1320 printers and search again for the 1320. this time it should work, even with the hp installed printer-description from the installation cd.
good luck
imac g5, pb g4, etc. Mac OS X (10.4.7)

it works

Problem print all pages on my HP Laserjet 1320 from my Mac

I am having a strange printing problem.
Happens in almost any program (Mail / Excel /Preview/Word/TextEdit/etc.). I can ask it to print a one page document. It spools, the printer flashes. The computer said it is done but nothing printed. On the same document, if I tell it to print 2 copies of the one page document, it will print one page sometimes and two pages other times. When printing long multipage documents it will sometimes not print the last page. It is almost as if the needs to be something at the end of the print job to push the last bit along to the printer and complete the print job. It only started happening 3-4 months ago. Now I have to check everything I print to make sure it is all there. This printer is connected to my Mac Mini via USB.
If I send the same print jobs to the company network printer....everything prints fine. (Kyocera - copier/printer/scanner/fax combo unit)
Here is some info on My system.
Mac Mini 2.3 GHZ i5 / 4GB memory
OS X 10.9.5
Printer is HP Laserjet 1320
I have deleted and reinstalled the printer several times and no joy.

I've also had problems with the HP 1320 and my Mac. Some things print, while others just give a blinking green light and then it goes off. This recently happened to me while trying to print a series of labels from Word. Giving up on the HP, I decided to print the labels off my inkjet printer and placed a number a labels in the printer and hit print for 100 copies. Since I had being doing some other things in-between, I didn't notice that the print select had also gone to my default printer the HP. Suddenly, thinking the inkjet was to print the labels, the HP starts printing those labels. I then noticed that the HP was the printer selected, but I was at a loss to figure out why it suddenly had started to actually print the item that I was previously unable to do. I finally determined that when I tried printing to the HP with the initial (1) copy it would not print; if I changed that number to (2) it would print one copy; if (3) I would get 2 copies; thus the print was giving exactly one less copy than I selected; thus when I select (1) copy it reads it as 0, will blink green and give me nothing. Give it a try.
