HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!

Hi,
My HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow over the network!
I have connect the printer to a windows XP 32bit SP3 using UBS port. The printer works fine on the local computer but when sharing it over the network it works too slow, for example with print test page it takes about 45 seconds to print and for other documents it takes much longer time.
I have installed the latest driver form HP website and upgrade the firmware it the latest version.
It happens on other Windows XP machines as well.
I connected the printer to my laptop (Windows 7 64bit) and it works fine (No delays over the network) and it seems that this problem have some relations with the windows XP Driver.
I have used local port trick on remote machines (instead of regular method) like this:
''add a local printer;
'new port'
'localport'
\\XPcomputer\HPPrinterName as port name
but still nothing!
There is nothing wrong with the network, we use to use a Samsung printer on the same machines over the network with no problem.
I Really appreciate your HELP!
This question was solved.

BEHZAD_T, how is the printer connected to the network (wireless or Ethernet)? If it is slow wirelessly, I would suggest trying to connect the printer to your router with the Ethernet cord and install it to the networked computer that way.
Another question is, relatively speaking, how close to your router are the Samsung printer and the HP printer? Depending on the distance (and what stands between the devices) there can be a lag between sending a print job and it being received by the printer.
Let me know!

  • LaserJet M1120n MFP - Problems with printing over Wireless Network.

    Hi. I have recently purchased a HP M1120n MFP printer.  There are three wireless laptops (Vista, & XP Pro) that use this printer via a DrayTek Vigor 27000GE wireless router, then via cat 5 cable to Ethernet on printer.
    All three laptops can print, but sometimes the print queue backs ups.  The top print job will say "Printing" but it can say this for hours!  Then if I delete the print job, it will say "Deleting" - but nothing happens.  The only way to clear it is to reboot the laptop.
    Firmware datecode is 20080228.
    If I connect via USB cable directly to the printer it works correctly. 
    Any ideas to help resolve this frustrating problem?

    The bottomline is that this printer has no way of connecting other than a straight USB connection.   In order to make it wireless you have to have a device that will give it an network IP address.  The printer by itself can not do this.
    The only way to get this printer on a network is to buy a SEPERATE USB Printer Server.   Or, buy a separate router, like I said, that has a USB connection on the back that will support printers. 
    You can not connect it the way you want as it stands right now.
    However, call your ISP and have them set it up IF their Gateway device has a USB connection and really can support a printer.  It is their issue.
    Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

  • 2101nw print server (and LaserJet M1132 MFP) – installation problems on Windows 7 (64bit)

    For two years, I've been a happy user of an HP printer (LaserJet M1132 MFP), wirelessly connected to my home network thanks to a HP Wireless G Print Server HP 2101nw.
    A week ago, a new machine came in and – to align operating systems - I had to install Windows 7 (64 bits) also on my laptop (previously we were running Windows XP).
    Then, I went on with the reinstallation of HP software, for the print server and the printer.
    And it was a disaster.
    After the failure of the first installation ("Installazione non riuscita"), I went through a series of attempts of uninstalling and reinstalling, again and again, by various methods. Uselessly. Even Revo Uninstaller did not help.
    Then, looking for information over the web, I read there was a known problem of incompatibility of the print server’s driver with 64-bit environment, and that HP was not going to rewrite it .
    You can imagine my disappointment.
    Now, hopefully, I write in this forum to ask for help. My request is twofold:
    1) I would like to properIy clean up my laptop and remove all that bad installed sw (both of the print server and the printer), so that at least I can successfully reinstall printer software for using it via USB cable.
    For this purpose, can you please give me your suggestions ?
    2) I would like to know: It is true that there is no driver available for use this print server on Windows 7 (64 bit) ?
    I’m asking because I found these pages which seems to give some hope, but I’m not so sure  ... :

  • CS3 slow over local network

    I'm on a MacBook Pro 2.33GHZ Core 2 Duo w/2GB RAM.
    Websites are shared from a Windows XP machine using normal
    built in file sharing.
    In Dreamweaver CS3, opening a document takes a while. And
    once it's open and everything looks good, I can click on an image
    and count out 2 seconds before the image actually highlights. Click
    on another image or in a table cell to type text, and it's another
    two seconds.
    This site website, copied to my own hard drive, responds as
    fast as it should - near instant.
    The website and images aren't large by any means, 43k with
    HTML, images, and css. It seems weird that it'd be slower over the
    network than locally. Once Dreamweaver has the document open and
    everything loaded, just selecting different elements shouldn't take
    a performance hit.
    I didn't have this problem with Dreamweaver 8.
    Anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

  • Mac painfully slow over mixed network SMB/CIFS

    I am using a Mac mini over a mixed office network. Several network operations are painfully slow. I posted a previous topic when I was using my G5 over the same network. Nothing has been resolved. G5, Mac mini or any Mac are slow over the network.
    -photo previews take at least 2 minutes each to view while on a PC the whole drive of previews are instantly seen.
    - Entourage common network calendar takes 5-10 minutes to view/update while the same common calender on a PC takes a few short seconds.
    - Browsing folders on network drives is slow.
    - Transfering files is slow
    Basically any work done over the network from the Mac is tediously slow. Burning CD's and hand carry the files to other offices would be faster. The PC's instead all work fine over the network.

    This looks very interesting and worth looking into. I've got the info in the hands of our net administrator.
    I am making progress. I switched the mac mini from ethernet to airport. That has helped dramatically. A folder of 175 mb that was going to take hours and hours to copy to my local drive (I finally gave up) only took about 2-3 minutes over wireless. Previews of photos now happen in a few short seconds. The Entourage common calendar still takes a while to upload but that's probably an Entourage issue.
    Our network administrator is going to string new cable to my office and we'll check the switching as well.
    Thanks everyone for your continued help as we solve this issue and rescue the Mac's reputation in a windows environment.
    This sounds alot like a duplexing issue, whereby
    your macs are connecting eventually to a switch, that
    isn't properly auto-negotiating your ethernet speed.
    You can try going into the Network preferences and
    forcing your mac to either 100 full duplex or 100
    half duplex and do some testing. Some Bay
    Network and Cisco switches must be set (if they are
    managed switches) for fastpath operation where they
    will autonegotiate better with equipment like our
    Broadcom manufactured network interface cards. I
    had the same issue at home with a Netgear switch, I
    replaced it with a Dell gigabit switch and the
    problem went away.

    Hi, i've installed HP LASERJET M1132 MFP in my PC with windows 7 ultimate 32 bit and it works fine. But when i connect using remote dekstop with  our Windows server 2008 r2 64 bit. its not printing. error "test page failed to print , would you like to view the print troubleshooter for assistance?" and it doesnt solved the problem.
    please help

    Thank you for your interest.
    The situation is a bit different than the picture. Windows Server 2008 R2 is available through the WAN. LAN is plugged into the PC-1, PC-2 and Konica Minolta printer. HP LaserJet M1120n MFP is connected via USB to the PC-1. OKI ML 3320 printer is connected via LPT also to the PC-1. PC-1 has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 also has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 is also available for PC-1 HP and OKI.
    It seems to me that I found the explanation for the printing problems - some of "my" printers are simply not compatible with Windows Server 2008 R2. I found on the net the following information:

  • HP LaserJet M1132 MFP does not print from a remote desktop

    Hi,
    I have a HP LaserJet M1132 MFP (product number CE847A) connected to a PC (MS Windows XP Home Edition + SP3) via USB. There is no problem with the printer. However, when the connection using Remote Desktop (it's set to use local facilities and resources, or in my case, printers, and serial ports) to the server (MS Windows Server 2008 R2), I can not even print a test page from a remote desktop.
    Error message: "Print a test page failed. Do you want to display a tool to solve problems with printing to get help?"
    But it does not lead to nowhere, as expected is access to the internet, and I have not it from a MS Windows Server 2008 R2.
    The same error is for the HP LaserJet M1120n MFP.
    I have installed on my PC other printer - old OKI ML321 (needle) connected to a PC using LPT cable and network printer Konica Minolta 1690MF (in another room). In both of these printers can easily print a test page from a remote desktop.
    Please help me.

  • HP LaserJet M1132 MFP: unable to save scan to file

    Hi,
    I just purchased a new HP LaserJet M1132 MFP. Everything is working fine except when using HP Director. It detects the device and scans. But when I try to save the file on my computer it doesn't succeed. Nothing is saved in the folder. What seems to be the problem?

    Hi,
    Did you installed the printer using teh original CD?
    If so, can you see Mac OS X v10.7 listed as supported on its label?
    I assume the CD will not be compatible with 10.7...
    If this is the case indeed, go to Applications > HP Laserjet MFP folder (or anything similar) and follow the HP Uninstaller..
    After uninstalling the software be sure to remove the printer from Print & Scan if it still exists...
    Download and install the latest software for Lion below and check if that may resolve the problem:

  • HP Laserjet M1132 MFP on Mac OS 10.7 - No Scanner Detected

    I just installed the HP Laserjet M1132 MFP on my mac mini (mid 2011) with OS X 10.7 (Lion).
    I have the printer working fine with the right driver comming from the installation disk.
    I have also upgraded the firmware to the latest one available for download from there site.
    One thing happen during the installation was that I couldn't finish the installation properly at the time of applying custom settings, the wizard prompted me "You must have administrative right ....", which I have, and when mac OS needs it, he asks for it anyway. The only choice was to cancel, but drivers were installed.
    Then, I launched HP Scan to check the scanner, and I have ... "No scanners availables" !!
    I also run apple software update, but nothing!
    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Trezi!

    Sorry if there are errors of grammar. I'm using google translator because I am Brazilian and I do not write in English,just read.
    I bought my printer M1132 After installing the Lion, and came across the same error message. I managed to solve this issue by enabling the root user and installing the drives by the super user root. When you finish the installation, it did not show the error message described above, and the scannerfunctioned normally for the program "HP Director". The image capture MAC did not work, even the Readiris program that came with the printer. But the point I'm getting now typicallyscan the "HP Director"
    As the root user is disabled by default, you should follow the tutorial below to activate the super user. Log in by root in the Login screen, click "Other User". Then type in the spacereserved for root user and then type your password. Shortlyfollowing section to install the printer driver as usual.
    Steps to enable root user in Lyon:
    From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
    From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
    Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
    Click Login Options....
    Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
    Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
    Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
    Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
    Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
    Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.
    Important notes
    Only the owner of a computer or its designated administrator(s) should have an administrator account or the root password.
    Any user with an administrator account can become the root user or reset the root password.
    A root password should be difficult to guess, containing both numbers and letters within the first eight characters.
    A root user has the ability to access other users' files.
    The root user has the ability to relocate or remove required system files and to introduce new files in locations that are protected from other users.

  • Laserjet M1132 MFP status offline

    My laserjet M1132 MFP does not print.i tried some tips in the troubleshooting.all does not work.even the doctor scan after it is downloaded it closes automatically without opening.i dont know what is the problem

    Hi , I see that you are experiencing issues printing. I would like to help you. Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation. Make sure the printer is directly connected to the computer by the USB cable and not a USB hub. Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.On the control panel, press and hold the Cancel button until the Ready light starts blinking, and then release the button.Did the self test print? Please go through the steps in this document to see if it will help.

  • Fax over the network with HP LaserJet 400 ColorMFP M475dw

    Hi there, I was trying to send fax over the network with  HP LaserJet 400 ColorMFP M475dw, I have connected the printer/scan/fax on a wired network, just have 3 computers on it, all of them  can scan or print. But I can't find any option to just FAX from Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat Reader, going to File ---> Print ---> and select M475dw "FAx", I installed the lasted version of the drivers downloaded from hp.com and there's no way to install this multifunction printer as a FAX.
    So I can't see the FAX on Printers in the control panel of windows.
    I have never got an error message from any computer during the installation process either.
    Does anyone has an idea of what to do here?
    Thanks ahead.

    Thanks for your quick answer, I really appreciate it. But unfortunately, it didn't resolve my problem  
    Actually any of the workstations after complete the installation (with the last version of drivers downloaded just now from hp.com) can't recognize the HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color MFP M475dw, as a fax. I can print and scan over the network, or connecting the printer with a usb cable. I just can't see the icon "HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color MFP M475dw FAX" in Control Panel ---> Devices and Printers.   I did a full installation when I were asked during the installation process... I did then I custom installation and neither of them seems to work to me  
    This is very strange, it never happened to me with any other models of all-in-on (printer/fax/scanner)

  • Time Machine over the Network: Terribly Slow

    Hello,
    I've been using Time Machine for over 3 years now with no issues over the network; the destination being a 2TB external Seagate connected to another iMac connected through gigabit ethernet. Everything has been working flawlessly: Every hour Time Machine would MOUNT the sparseimage it created on the disk, BACKUP the data and UNMOUNT the disk image when finished.
    Until I upgraded to Lion. The above process is still working per se, however it is PAINFULLY slow! A 50MB backup can take up to AN HOUR! Searching around on the net, advised that there could be an issue with Spotlight as well, however this is not the case for me, since Spotlight finished a new index in under 30 mins. Followed every tutorial I could find on the issue, to no avail..
    I then upgraded to Mountain Lion with the hope that the issue will clear itself. Cleared my old backups, resetted Time Machine by erasing its .plist file, restarted my iMac just to make sure and connected Time Machine to the network share anew, creating a "sharing only" account on the host iMac, i.e. the one that has the external HD connected through USB. Still no luck.
    I painfully realize that I still have the same issue. While backing up, network traffic is under 100KB, and activity monitor does not show any backupd or mds or any similar processes taking anything over 3% of CPU time.
    What could be wrong?

    Hello again,
    Tries on the other iMac (also running 10.8.2) and things are exactly the same: Image creation takes almost half an hour, and copying crawls at under 1MB/min. While time machine image is mounted and Time Machine is "backing up", accessing ANY disk on the host Mac is VERY slow. Seems like something hogs up appleshare when Time Machine is in use. Mind you, there is insignificant network traffic as seen by Activity Monitor, as well as insignificant CPU usage while backing up.
    Stopping backup and using tmutil to set the Time Machine destination to the mounted image as mounted by Finder, solves the issue again, revving up Time Machine throughput to over 20MB/sec! There is also no issues acessing the other Mac as well, under this scenario.
    Up to this point, the only way I have managed to use Time Machine over a networked external HD is through the NAS server. Both configurations where I am using a Mac running 10.8.2 as a server of the external disk have failed with very low throughput while backing up. Something must be wrong in 10.8.2's afp when Time Machine is mounting the image by itself.
    I may need to remind you that I have been successfully backing up to the external HD for 4 years now; something broke a few months after the client iMac was upgraded to Lion and at the time when the host iMac was upgraded to Mountain Lion. Will try to locate a Mac running some later OS X version to do some more testing.
    Also reminding that I have used two distinctive iMacs and two external HD drives for my tests so far. The client iMac has remained the same, however 10.8.2 has been reinstalled on it a couple of times. Have also used an afp-enabled NAS server which worked fine with Time Machine.
