HP laserjet 5100tn stopped working - networked

I have a LJ5100tn and for some reason it just quit working.  It is installed in our small network.  I deleted the printer and reinstalled the drivers and I still get nothing.  When I go to add a printer and browse for networked printers the server sees it there but when I go to print a test page I get nothing.  I tried to power cycle the printer and nothing.  I power cycled the server and get nothing.  Any ideas where to go from here?
thanks
Scott

  • Laserjet p1505 stopped working

    I have a laserjet p1505 that stopped working on my pc (window vista ultimate, 32 bit).  When I check the printer queue, it shows the document is waiting to print, but nothing happens.
    I checked and switched the usb and connections, deleted and reinstalled the drivers.  Eventually (and because it had to be done anyway), I reformatted my hard drive and once again reinstalled the software from scratch. Again, the same problem.  Interestingly, when I connect my laptop (same operating system) directly to the printer, it works.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Kathy

    I would like to clarify that you have 2 computer, the same OS, one is PC and another is the laptop, you installed the same driver on both of them, via the same kind of connection - USB connection, but PC doesn't work,, and the laptop works. Is it the problem you are facing now? If it is the case, I suspect that issue is related to your PC itself.
    To help your diagnostic this issue, I suggest that you can install the PDU (printing diagnostic utility) on your PC to do some troubleshooting. You can get the tool from P1505's product page:

  • Hp laserjet 2605 stop working

    Hi all... After one of latest upgrades (I don't know wich exactly), I'm unable to print with my HP Color Laserjet 2605dn, as a network printer. I tryed to reinstall hplip but nothing. I tryed to remove the printer (I use only cups web interface to admin printers) and add a new printer. All fine, but when I clic on printer model and "add printer" button receive this error: "Unable to copy PPD file!", and printer don't add.
    Edit: Tryed with success to add printer with a separate ppd file (extracting from cups folder), but I don't be able to set options of the printer; the cups error is: "Error: Missing value string"
    Cups version 1.3.8
    Hplip version 2.8.2-2
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Virtualbox stopped working / network connection?

    Hello all,
    I finished installing virtualbox with no dramas last night and loaded windows on it. It was working all fine and dandy. but for some reason now its stopped working (this morning at work). When I load Virtualbox it just hangs with a window with nothing in it.
    I tried deleting all the data inside ~/.Virtualbox. It opens two windows this time both hanging, the second window looks to be the registration confirmation.
    I was wondering does vbox require a working internet connection to run? as at the moment it is setup as a standalone.
    edit: weird it seems to run as root...

  • HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni STOPPED WORKING!

    Will the print driver for HP Color LaserJet CP151ni be included with the MAC OS X 10.6 updates anytime soon? I just bought this printer two months and what a waste if it will not be supported by the updated OS. Really disappointed! Need to print....!

    Never mind. Just realized that it was a network issue. Was able to use the included driver with the 10.6 OS (CP1510 series)

  • G780 wireless stopped working; networks found but can't connect

    I have a G780 bought early this year. It came with Windows 8, which I am still using. Everything was working just fine until today. All of a sudden I can't connect to my wireless networks (I have a router that can have a "guest network" in addition to the normal one, and I can't connect to either of these). I had been fiddling with some of the settings last night, but everything had still been working fine. I can connect with other devices so I know the networks are working.
    The networks do show up in the list of available networks, but whenever I try and connect it just doesn't work. To make sure I wasn't just typing the passwords incorrectly I tried disabling all security on one of the networks (so it was a totally open network with no password), and the laptop still can't connect. I've tried restarting the wireless router, restarting the computer, updating the driver for the wireless card, uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling them, enabling and disabling the wireless card, unchecking the option to allow the computer to turn off the wireless card to save power, and as a last ditch effort I even did this Windows 8 "Refresh" option which uninstalls all programs you've installed and resets options to the defaults. That also included uninstalling my antivirus program, so I've tried connecting without that, too. Nothing has made any difference.
    Edited to add that I also downloaded and ran the diagnostic tool from the Lenovo site for my laptop and version of Windows for wireless networking issues and it didn't show anything.
    I would really appreciate any insight as to what to do next. I'm pretty much at my wits' end with this.
    Solved!

    hi Maltiriel,
    Thanks for using Lenovo Community Forums!
    Can you try doing a system restore, maybe set it 2 days back or when you last work with the Wireless with no issues,
    If that doesn't help,
    Pull up the page on the right where it shows you all available wireless networks,
      > Look for your Network and do a right click make sure you "Forget" the network first,
      >Now Try following this Article and Connect to your Wifi Manually,
    http://www.op97.org/technology/documents/1HowtoManuallyConnecttoaWirelessNetwork.pdf
    Can you also share what it says when you connect to your network
    thanks,
    Best Regards

  • HP Color Laserjet printer stopped working after 10.4.10 upgrade

    I upgraded other night to 10.4.10 and I'm now unable to print to my USB connected HP Color Laserjet 3500 printer. Anyone have any idea what might be the cause and how to fix it?
    FYI, I already tried reinstalling the driver and fix the permission but no luck.

    Hello,
    Same problem here, with a HP aio 3015.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi @Lize2 ,
    I see that you are having issues installing the printer, the installer stops working. Thanks for providing that detailed information. I would like to help you out today.
    It sounds like something is blocking the software from installing, since just the driver are being installed.
    Disconnect the USB cable, run the uninstall from the CD.
    Touch the Windows key and the E key to access the computer window. Right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
    Do a msconfig to turn off any startup programs that might be interfering with the installation.
    Click on Start, in the search box type in Run, enter, then type in Msconfig, click OK.
    Click the Services tab. Click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box. Click Disable All, and then click OK.
    Then click on the Start Up tab at the top. Click on disable all.
    Reboot the computer.
    Temporarily turn off any Antivirus software and Real Time Scanning. Especially if you are using Mcafee.
    Then run the installation again. Right click on the install and select Run as Administrator.
    Test the printer again.
    Then go back into msconfig and Enable the All Microsoft Services and Enable All on the Start Up tab. Turn the Antivirus software back on again and the Real Time Scanning.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!
    Thank You.

  • HP LaserJet P1505n stops printing and blocks network interface

    I have been using my P1505n for over two years without any problem. But it suddenly stopped printing. The scenario is as follows:
    1. The P1505n is connected to a wired home network with reserved IP address in the DHCP server.
    2. The P1505n is used from Ubuntu 10.4, 11.4 , Windows XP and Windows 7 without any previous problems.
    3. The last partial successful print job stopped in the middle of a page leaving the rest blank: no paper jam.
    4. I have reset the printer several times: turn off + press Cancel & Go + turn on while holding the two buttons down.
    5. The first reset was successful: the toner level going from 40 to 100%. The next ones may have been successfull too.
    6. After each reset and also after each power-on, I can ping and access the embedded web server.
    7. Whenever I send a print job, the print queue on the computer (all OS behave identically) says "printing" and stops. I can cancel/remove the jobs from Ubuntu.
    8. After the printer receives the print job, it silently blocks the network interface (no ping nor web) and doesn't print anything. No movementsm no LED blinking either: just nothing happens.
    What is the reason for this problem? And how do I solve it?

    Hi firedude007,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that your HP Laserjet P1102w stops printing files from your Mac but not on Windows, and I am happy to help!
    For further assistance, I will need to know the following information:
    The version number of the Mac Operating System. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
    If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
    If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
    In the meantime, I would try the following:
    Reset the printing system. Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system.
    Verify and repair disk permissions. Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions.
    Hope to hear from you, and thank you for posting!

    Hi，
    So switch a LAN card fix this issue...seems a compatibility issue or maybe some packs or programs you installed recently cause this issue.
    Have you manually check the network adapter driver from the PC's manufacture website? sometimes, it will be a time delay before Microsoft push out the driver update.
    Check if issue exists in safemode with network, this mode will launch Windows with limited sets of files and drivers. 
    if you have a restore point, restore the pc to a previous point at which the pc is functioning fine.

  • Network stops working in Tecra M9 with Vista OS?

    We have four Toshiba tecra M9 (2.2ghz T7500 processor) laptops with factory installed windows vista business version and one with fresh non toshiba installation of Vista Ultimate version. All these laptops have exactly same problem.
    Network sometimes stops working and nothing but restarting computer helps?
    Thing is that usually you cant event restart computer because it hangs to logging off or to shutting down state.
    Theres no clear reason to this hang and it happens now and then.
    Sometimes many times a day and sometimes it works for days. Doesnt matter if you are docked or undocked. We have several desktops pcs and other brand laptops with exactly same configuration/programs and no problems.
    Any help would be great because users are not very pleased to this situation and we wouldnt want to change back to windows XP (which is working in M9 without problems).

    All vista updates are installed to all these computers. BIOS is newest 1.50 that is available from web site. Toshiba Value Added Package for Windows Vista (v1.1.7; 12-14-2007; 38.89M) package is only new driver that has released from Toshiba since purchase of these machines. Four factory installed Vista M9 models have original driver versions (not sure if they are newest ones). One Vista Ultimate has drivers downloaded from Toshiba support site and it even has Vista Servicepack 1 RC-1 version installed.
    I installed that new value added package two days ago and no networks hangs yet but still have to wait because it might work for week and then start hanging again.

    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not synced. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are not touched with the iTunes sync process. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer which is not handled by iTunes. Most importing software includes an option to delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If is my understanding that some Windows import software supports importing photos from the Camera Roll, but not videos. Regardless, the import software should not delete the photos/videos from the Camera Roll unless you set the app to do so.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll are included with your iPhone's backup. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes before the videos on the Camera Roll went missing and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes since they went missing, you can try restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup. Don't sync the iPhone with iTunes again and decline the prompt to update the iPhone's backup after selecting Restore.
