HP Laserjet 400 M401n won't stop printing when more than 1 copy is specified

I use this HP Laserjet printer on a network. It's brand new. I print from both Macbook Pro and / or Mac Pro running OS 10.9.5. Downloaded and installed latest HP printer driver.
Problem: I can print 1 page just fine. But when I specify more than that, the printer will not stop printing copies for the number I specified. I have to press the cancel button to stop it. I have tried resetting the printer. No luck.

I don't use spell catcher.
I found a workaround posted elsewhere in the Apple discussion forum. When going through the printing dialog boxes, select Preview and print whatever number of pages I need from that window. It works fine so I'll use that method until a future Mac OS X update fixes the problem.
The security update for OS X on 3-1-06 didn't fix the problem even after I repaired permissions.
Thanks for responding.

Laserjet 6P won't stop printing - prints a line of junk on each page -not connected to network or PC

My HP Laserjet 6P won't stop printing. It prints a few lines of symbols and characters at the top of each page. The printer is not connected to a network or computer. I tried shutting the printer off for a long time. This started when I tried printing from a MAC to the printer, but now there is nothing connected to the printer.
Any suggestions for resetting, etc.? I don't know how to reset this printer so I haven't tried anything with the various buttons, etc.

Disable the "Enable bidirectional support" in the P1102w Properties > Ports.

HP Laserjet P1102w won't stop printing

I've just installed an HP Laserjet P1102w from the disk and it won't stop printing. I've disabled the bidirectional support and gotten rid of all other HP devices on my laptop but it still keeps going - just printing blank page after blank page. How can I stop this?

Hi @dionysusthewino ,
I see that the printer is printing out blank pages and won't stop. I would be happy to help you.
Clear out the print queue on the computer.
Then power cycle the printer.
Restore the printer back to factory settings, if you are still having issues. If the printer is networked though, you will have to set it up again.
Turn the printer off, hold down the wireless button and cancel (x button) while turning the printer back on and don't release the two buttons until the printer stops making noise.
If you need further assistance, please provide the results and the following information.

Test page won't stop printing

I have a Hp psc 1315 all-in-one and it won't stop printing a test page everytime I turn it on. I have had this printer for 5 years and it did this once before but I can't remember how I fixed it. I followed the directions over and over and scanned the document after it printed and it still won't stop. I'm getting sick of wasting ink and paper, any suggestions??

It's the alignment page that keeps printing. Check the link below. You need to scan the alignment page successfully so that it won't keep on printing it everytime you restart printer.
Cause
The product aligns the print cartridges every time at cartridge installation or replacement to ensure the highest-quality prints. The alignment page continues to print when the product is turned on or off, or when a print job is started, for any of the reasons below.
The alignment process is not complete.
The ink cartridges are not properly installed.
The ink cartridges need to be replaced.
The product needs to be serviced

HP 7520 won't stop printing

Hi,
I have an HP 7520 with two issues occurring at once: it won't stop printing and it won't connect to web services. This is a recent problem.
I've read through the various self-help posts, but I can't get the printer to stop printing (or the message screen to stay in menu mode) long enough to select the tools menu.
All the pages keep printing with only one line, which reads "CONNECT xmpp008.hpeprint.com:80 HTTP/1.0".
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
KMK

Hello @klauskokott ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that your printer can't connect to the Web Services.
I would like to help.
It sounds like the printer is making a partial contention to the servers.
Just enough of a connection to cause it to try and print the web services information page, but not enough to actually print the page and confirm the connection. This would be why is keeps trying to print the web services page, but you instead get the weird 'CONNECT xmpp008.hpeprint.com:80 HTTP/1.0'.
I would first try resetting the network.
Simply turn your printer and other network devices off.
Unplug the power to the router for at least one minute.
Plug the power back into the router and turn on your network devices.
If that does not resolve the issue, try setting a manual DNS.
The following reply by happytohelp01 has instructions for setting the manual DNS.
It is for a 7510, but the process will be very similar.
Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint several times
Pleas let me know how things work out, or let me know if you need any further help.

My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook. All software is up to date. iTunes just gives me an error. No problems when plugged into a PC. Why the nonstop vibrating!?

My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook. All software is up to date. iTunes just gives me an error. No problems when plugged into a PC. Why the nonstop vibrating!?

When I connect it to my iMac (with up-to-date OS X Yosemite 10.9.5) - it doesn't work.
Specifically - iTunes automatically launches, but then quickly shows a dialog window that says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
Meanwhile - on my iPhone - in the upper right-hand corner (where the battery life is displayed) - you can see the "plugged in" icon (lightening bolt) rapidly blinking on and off.
In other words - it seems like, when it's plugged in - it's rapidly connecting and disconnecting (several times per second).
If I click "OK" on that dialog window on iTunes - it instantly pops back up, and continues to do so as long as I keep the iPhone plugged in.
I have tried all and stile did not resolve my problem. I tried to restart both devices, try different cable (I have original cable). Both devices are new and software's are update it on latest versions.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. how do i fix the problem

Firefox won't let me open more than one window at a time. It use to allow me to open multiple windows before but for no apparent reason it stopped. I uninstalled it and re-installed but I'm having the same problem. How do I fix the problem
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== several days ago

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

How can i order prints of more than one photo at a time?

Hi I am trying to order prints of more than one photo at a time but can only select one photo - if I press command it just jumps to the next photo, not allowing me to select multiple photos.
Thanks

Easiest way is to make an album of the photos you want to order, crop them to the print size, select all and order

Won't let me burn more than 90mb to a cd???

Yesterday something odd happened, I went to write a CD with my mac mini internal writer. All of a sudden it won't let me put more than 90mb onto a cd.
We had changed the make of cd's we use so I thought it may be that, I found on old cd (that already had a small session written to it) and tried that. Again it said I could only put 90mb onto the cd... BUT it actually let me write 200+mb onto it. The blank Cd's won't let me do that, they say not enough room etc.
Anyone have any ideas????
I'm using toast 7, on system 10.3.9.
The cd's i'm using are Imation CD-R 800mb Multispeed (overburning)
The old ones were Imation CD-R 700mb 52x

I wouldn't be surprised if 800MB CD's don't work. I I'm correct, your drive only supports 700MB's (unless you've upgraded it with a SuperDrive. Anyway, the Imation CD-R's should work 52x should work.
Things to try
1) Go to homefolder >> Library >> Preferences. Now trash the file called "com.roxio.toast.plist. Try burning with Toast now. If it does work, you had a corrupted preference file and now the problem is solved. If it still doesn't work, proceed to step 2.
2) Instead of using Toast, use the Finder Burn option. Insert your CD-R into your drive. It'll ask you for a name, name it something and click OK. Now you should see a CD-R icon on the desktop. Drag whatever files that you wanted to burn onto the CD. Now double-click on the CD to open it. You should see all the files that you dragged onto the CD. Now, go File >> Burn Disc. It will start burning. If it works, your Toast program is corrupted, reinstall it. If it still doesn't work, repeat step 1 and proceed to step 3.
3) Use a CD/DVD Drive Lens cleaner. Costs about $10 CAN. Use the drive cleaner and try burning with Toast. If it works now, then you had a dirty lens and now it's solved. If it still doesn't work, repeat steps 1 and 2 and proceed to step 4.
4) Try different discs. Try using Maxell 700MB/80min CD-R's they work with absolutely every mac. They cost around $18 CAN for a pack of 10 w/ jewel cases. Now try burning with Toast. If it worked, your problem was bad CD's, keep using Maxell. If it didn't work, repeat steps 1, 2 , and 3. After all that, if it still doesn't work, post back for more solutions.
