HP Laserjet 3030 always goes in pause state

Hi all,
since install Snow Leopard my usb printer does not print. All job send go in pause state. Problems remain changing usb port or using another Hp printer driver.
On system error log at the end find: /usr/libexec/cups/backend/usb failed
On machine is also installed VirtualBox. Inside it I set a Windows Xp virtual machine: from there my Hp 3030 printer function correctly.
Anyone may help me?
thanks

Delete all of the bundles starts with "hp" (or "HP") in /System/Library/Extensions, reboot your computer, then run software update (in which you should see a HP driver update, install it).

Konica Minolta bizhub C353 going in to a pause state several times a day.

I have a client with a mixed 10.5 and 10.4 network. Since installing a Konica Minolta bizhub C353 MFP we've been having an issue with the NIC on the MFP locking up (not responding to pings, web utils not coming up) and the print queue showing the machine in a paused state. I am certain that the issue is not related to the MFP because we swapped an identical MFP of the clients from another location and the issue remained on the original network (i.e. the MFP having the problem worked fine at the new location that the MFP not having the problem started screwing up).
A recent packet capture showed that a print job being sent from a workstation using a CUPS based print driver instead of the Konica Minolta driver. The print request has several commands preceding it that are NOT generated by the Konica Minolta driver. These commands actually prevented the document from being distilled from the captured packets and once we removed the commands we were able to distill the document.
So question one is: does OSX use CUPS when printing from a generic driver? Question two is: has anyone had issues with using a generic print driver such as network lockups and the like?

The Console application is located in Application > Utilities.
A good trick on the Mac to open applications is to use Spotlight - the little magnifying glass in the top right hand corner.
To open, either click on the icon or press Command Space. Then type in cons and you will see a list of hits, Console being one of them. Select it and the application will open.
Console is like Windows Event Viewer. Just about everything that goes on the Mac is logged and Console lets you see that.
With Console open, expand the entry /var/log. You should see the cups entry. Expand this and you will see the error_log. It may not mean much to you at first but the trick is to look at the left side of the right hand pane. You will see heaps of I's, meaning information, and if there are any errors they will start with an E.
Note that the start of every job is with the creation of a banner page (a leftover from UNIX days). This can also help you find your way around the log. It will also show all the filters and plugins that are being called for that job and may help identify the extra stuff you were seeing with the sniff, although this could have been a port check to make sure the socket was open.
As for the KM driver, it is often not a bad idea to use a generic driver when troubleshooting, but of course this will not provide the user with all the features of the printer - such as finishing options. So that is why I say it is for troubleshooting. If the generic driver works but the vendor provided doesn't, then you have narrowed down your causes. You'd be surprised by how easy most drivers are to install. But unlike Windows it is a two step process - install the driver software first and then add the print queue. If you find a C353 driver for OS X, then it will probably have an installer that you run (by double-clicking) and this will copy all the relevant driver files to the Mac. Note that you will have to authenticate with an admin account, just like Vista, to run the installer.
Hope this helps you a bit more. Feel free to ask more questions if you need to.

Saving always goes to documents folder

Hello,
I've posted this problem before but haven't received a fix for it yet. Perhaps I'm just explaining it wrong. Simply put every time I go to save a document, instead of going to the last folder used in the program it always goes to the documents folder of the user. Also the last folder does not even show up in the drop down of the save window, only the path to the documents folder. The various programs do remember recent documents opened. But the "open file" always goes to documents, not last folder. This was not always the case, but has been for the last 6months or so and I can't seem to correct it.
I've tested the system by adding a new account and seeing if it happen there also or if it is just the one account. But the same situation exists, so it seems to be universal to this computer.
Based on previous threads this is what I've attempted so far:
Deleted in: (myhome)/Library/Preferences
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
com.apple.launchservices.plist
com.adobe.xxxx.plist
com.macromedia.xxxx.plist
ALSO Deleted : /library/caches/com.applelaunchservices-xxxx.csstore (all)
Then restarted computer. This however has not resolved the problem. I know all the work arounds of "put folder in sidebar" and what not, but that doesn't fix the problem. I want to fix this problem.
thanks
mark

I don't know what else you can do, nor why dialogs aren't working correctly. The Open and Save dialogs in most applications are now handled by Apple's Navigation Services, although developers can add some custom things to this basic arrangement. See this article:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Conceptual/ProvidingNavigationDi alogs/nsxconcepts/chapter_2_section2.html
Note especially this paragraph:
"...two types of dialogs can appear—a minimal Save dialog and a full Save dialog. The minimal Save dialog, shown in Figure 1-2, is displayed the first time a user saves a document in an application. This dialog provides a text field for the user to enter a filename. Applications can optionally specify a default filename to display. The dialog has a Where pop-up menu that, by default, suggests the Documents folder for the user. The user can open the pop-up menu to choose from locations previously set in the Finder sidebar or a recently-visited location. If none of those locations are acceptable, the user can click the disclosure button to the right of the text field to access the full Save dialog."
AFAIK the user choices made are then saved to the application's plist file. A list of Recent Items is also written to the com.apple.finder.plist and to the com.apple.recentitems.plist. So if you tossed those two plist files and the application's plist file, plus the sidebar plist for good measure you should get back to the default state. You would then open a dialog, expand it to full navigation view, pick new stuff, and these changes would be written to the respective plists. If this is not happening--if the plists are not being written to--I'm afraid I don't know what else you could do.
If you've never created a test user you might do so (in System Prefs/Acconts), log in to the test user and do some opening and saving (remember you will be at the default of the simple window with the Documents as the usual default). After you've done some open and save actions see if the test user now works correctly, with your actions remembered when you go back after a logout/in. If that is the case, then there is something odd going on in your regular account.

My Screensaver always goes back to National Geographic

Hey.
I've set a personal Screensaver because I like it when a Slideshow will be shown on my screen while I'm not on the iMac.
For some reason my screensaver always goes back to the original National Geographics Pictures and I don't know why. I've been searching for this issue on the internet before and in some other forum they said that I have to delete the "screensaver" file from the Preferences Folder in the Libary. I don't have this file through.
Here are my iMac stats :

Pause state in palm

how do i pause the state of my application running in palm when the user hits the home button or any other buttons not from my application?
kinda like halfway using the app, user wants to view the menubar, or goes to the home page of palm to use other applications without properly selecting exit from my application.
thanks.

Sorry, there's no pause state. Since only one application can be running at one time on the Palm the application cannot be placed in the pause state. What I have done is save the state to an RMS database and look for that on startup of the application.

Parent Concurrent Program executes rest of the logic before PAUSED STATE.

Procedure parent_cp (errbuf out nocopy varchar2, retcode out nocopy varchar2) IS
ret number;
i number;
BEGIN
fnd_msg_pub.initialize;
BEGIN ---Block A
req_data := fnd_conc_global.request_data;
if (req_data is not null) then
i := to_number(req_data);
if (i < 5 ) then
errbuf := 'Done!';
retcode := 0 ;
return;
end if;
else
i := 1;
end if;
for i in 1 .. 4 loop
ret := fnd_request.submit_request('CZ', 'Child','Delete Localized Text - Child Number : ' ||TO_CHAR(vChildNo), NULL,TRUE, vChildMdlRange);
fnd_conc_global.set_req_globals(conc_status => 'PAUSED', request_data => to_char(vChildNo)) ;
IF (ret = 0 ) THEN
errbuf := fnd_Message.get;
retcode := 2;
ELSE
errbuf := 'Sub-Request submitted!';
retcode := 0 ;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;
BEGIN ---block B
dbms_output.put_line(' Block after submitting Child CP ');
END;
END parent_cp;
when i execute the above Parent CP ,it submitted 4 Child CPs and Parent CP went into Pause state. Before Parent CP went into Pause state it executed the Block B.
My Requirement is it should execute the block B after completion of all child CPs.
Please suggest how to achieve the above requirement.
Thanks,
Murali.

     dev_status ,
     message );
END LOOP;
END LOOP;
dbms_output.put_line(' Block after submitting Child CP ');
END;
END parent_cp;
The above procedure was the Parent CP. Here the problem is in fnd_request.submit_request('CZ', 'Child','Delete Localized Text - Child Number : ' ||TO_CHAR(vChildNo), NULL,TRUE, vChildMdlRange); i have given sub_request as True and used fnd_conc_global.set_req_globals(conc_status => 'PAUSED', request_data => to_char(vChildNo)) ; to make parent CP to pause it.
It submits 4 child CPs as expected but the phase as INACTIVE and status NO MANAGER and PARENT CP was always in running state.
If i make sub_request parameter of fnd_request.sub_request to FALSE . It submits 4 child CPs as expected with the phase as PENDING and status NORMAL and PARENT CP was always in running state. But child cps are never changing the Phase as RUNNING. It is always in PENDING STATE.
Please suggest how to use fnd_conc_global.set_req_globals and fnd_concurrent.wait_for_request together.

IP4500 printer always defaulting to "Pause printing". I have to open Print Queue and de-select pause

My iP4500 has started to always switch to "Pause Printing". I am prompted to open the pring queue and uncheck the pause printing box. It then prints, but goes back to pause when it is done. What changed, and what do I change to correct this???

Have you tried removing the printer from System Preferences and then adding it back?

How to fix 'Memory is low' error message on HP LaserJet 3030

I have my LaserJet 3030 connected to a PC that is accessed by other home computers on my LAN...been running without problems for years. The small window on my Laserjet has a statement 'Memory is low'...I press enter with no effect. Can anyone give advise on how to correct this problem?

Hi wbarattino and misterperov,
Please bear with me as I'm not supporting much of business printers but I found a similar article on HP Business Forums.
I also found this article (although it's a Color LJ 2600n printer) from the HP Business Support Center site.
Hope this helps both of you!

When using iPod in my iPhone it plays for a minute then goes to pause, how do I stop this?

When I play iPod music on my phone it will play for a few seconds, even minutes & then will sort of crackle/hesitate and the player goes to pause.
I hit the play again & the same happens.
I have tried a soft reset, any idea what else I can do?

Chea,
8-3 isn't, strictly speaking, a number, so Numbers guesses it's a Date when the default format of Automatic is in force. You can override the guess by formatting the cell to something other than Automatic.
It may seem perverse to you, but formatting the cell as Number prior to enterint the string 8-3 causes it to be presented as Text. This will solve your problem, I suppose, since it will not longer be a Date/Time object.
On the other hand, if you were tring to express an operation involving two numeric values and the subtraction operator, then you could write: =8-3. The resulting display would then be 5.

When i try to open a url from a search, it always goes to a random search engine, not the web page

If I do a search for something, I get the Google search fine, when I click on a link it never goes to the site, it always goes to a random search engine and sometimes freezes my computer. I created a new, alternate profile, but it does it on that one too.

If it's happening on more than one profile, it sounds like a malware redirectiing you. Try doing an antivirus scan first.

Instance going in Running state while invoking DB adapter

HI,
I am stuck in a very tricky scenario.
I have to select data from two tables:- Header and Line table.
I am using a VIEW to fetch data from both the tables by passing Invoice id.
Now when ever i am having single line data in Both the tables Header n Line for a single Invoice id, the instance is running successfully.
But when there is multiple data in Line table for the Invoice id, the instance is going in running state and after every 60 seconds, it is creating a new instance which will also be in running state, thus this will continue and server will go in incompatible state.
I need to resolve this issue.
Please help.

Hi,
What operation did you use to get the data from the view?
Did you use the custom sql or Select operation?

Hp laserjet 3030 would print and now won't

When I plugged in the hp laserjet 3030 all-in-one to my mac mini and added a printer it worked!
Then, I found the driver CD that came with the printer so I thought I'd install the HP Director so I could scan etc.
Now the printer won't print, I used to get an error message that said something about a postscript and the number 13. I don't recall the entire message because I no longer get it, instead ...
I see in the printer que window that it is starting the job, then it just quits without anything being printed.
I've tried to unistall and install the printer multiple times. I'm not sure if I'm doing this right. I go to printer/fax preferences and remove any printers from my list. I've gone to user/library/printers and deleted any printers in that folder. I'm nervous to delete items in the mac hardrive/library/printers folder.
I've repaired disk permissions multiple times.
No luck
The strange thing is that I can use the hp director to use the scanner. The scanner works but printing won't go through.
Please, please help.

Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal.
Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.
If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.
Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.
Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals.
Make sure the router is broadcasting at 2.4 ghz and not 5 ghz.
Hope this information is helpful!

HP LaserJet 3030 not detected

I have connected my HP LaserJet 3030 to my new Airport Extreme yet it is not being detected by the Airport Extreme. I have updated my drives to Gutenprint 5.2.5 to no avail. Please help.

Welcome to the discussion area!
Your HP Laserjet 3030 is not on the list of compatible printers that is published by the iFelix Support Site, but that does not necessarily mean that it won't work...it may not have been tested yet.
The best way to discover if your device is compatible is to work your way through the Apple Printer Troubleshooting Guide.
Not all printers are compatible. If the Troubleshooting Guide does not sort things out, I'm afraid that the evidence then points to your device as not being compatible.

Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL6 Printer does not want to work on windows7 x64, help!!!

Hi to all , i really need some help with this one , i have a Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL 6 all-in-one printer at work on our network and i'm struggling to get it installed , ive tried looking on the net , ive tried the windows 7 drivers with the update function
basically ive tried everything that i can think of and the thing still doesn't want to install , on my x32 bit machine it works perfectly , windows picked it up and installed it automatically and i can carry on , but for some reason the x64 doesn't want to
do anything , please anyone ho can help with this issue , it will help allot since i have been struggling for 2 weeks now

Hi Marcel,
I had the same problem - THe Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL 6 all-in-one printer is connected to a Windows XP machine and from my Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit) workstations I could not print.
By some research and trial and error configurations, I am now able to print from my Windows 7 workstations. You can follow these steps and let me know if it works for you :
Step 1 : Make sure that the printer is shared on the Windows XP workstation and you can see the printer share while browsing your network e.g : \\XPWorkStation\Printer Share
Step 2 : Click Start and go to Device and Printers. Click on Add a printer
Step 3 : Choose add a local printer (Not a network, wireless or bluetooth printer)
Step 4 : On the next screen choose create a new printer port and in the port name type in the path to your printer share e.g : \\XPWorkStation\Printer Share
Step 5 : In the driver list, select HP and your model. In some cases, the Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL 6 does not appear in the list. You will have to click on Windows Update and then you will have an updated list of the printers available. Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL
6 is not available in Windows Update list. I selected Hp Laserjet 3030 PCL 5 and the driver worked fine for me.

Varun
