HP LaserJet P2015 not printing via network

Hi,
looking for help.
I cannot print via the network on HP LaserJet P2015. It works via USB. When I try to add the printer it is identificable by Bonjour (Nearest Printers). It tries to configure the printer and appears as being active (green dot) but when try to print it says Connecting to Printer but then reports an error message of The printer is not responding.
Any ideas on how can fix ? Thanks in advance !

You can connect to Bonjour printers in Mac OS X, just select the Printer in the Print & Fax preference pane as usual and click on Add

LaserJet P2055DN - will not print via network

Set up the printer last night as a network printer (replacing an older LJ 2300dn). It would not print a test page. To verify that the printer was good, I loaded the drivers into my laptop and connected via usb. Was able to print a test page via usb. Disconnected usb and reconnected network cable. Released and reset ip address. Verified ip address by pinging from host. When I ping the printer I loose usually half of the packets. There are two other HP printers on the network, a P2015dn and a LJ color 2605dn. Pinging their ip address returns 100% with a ttl=255. Pinging the p2055 produced 4 packets sent, 2 packets received, 2 packets lost, ttl=64 on the 2 returns. I have changed cables to the printer and interchanged ports on the network switch (verified the ports on the network switch by printing to the LJ 2605) with the same result. I cannot get the internal web server to come up, or it partially displays, or combinations of the above. If this had the older style removable print server like in my lj2300, I could swap it out, but it doesn't look like I can do that with this model. When I send a test page to the printer, it displays "printing", the green light on the top is flashing, the activity light on the network card is flashing, but nothing happens. Eventually, I get a "this document failed to print' notification on the host, but the printer still indicates "printing" and the lights are still flashing. Anyone have any ideas? I think I'm looking at a bad network/print server card in the P2055.
This question was solved.

I also had problems printing via the network to hp p2055dn. There was no problem printing via USB. All network settings were ok. Can ping, etc...
Many days of wrangling, finally found that the Network Config.Security had to be Reset on the printer's physical control panel.
Press Ok on the printer control panel --> press down arrow, you get to Setup Menu Network Config --> press Ok --> A number of down arrows down you get to Network Config. Security --> press Ok --> you have two options - Keep or Reset --> Choose Reset........ Network printing should be working fine.

Pages will not print via network printer

I have purchased and installe Pages and Numbers and neither one will print to my network printer. I have been using my DeskJet 970 on my network without trouble.
I can print from other apps installed on my iPad via this same printer.
In support of printing I have purchased Print-N-Share as well as PrintCentral Pro. I have also install wePrint on my desktop.
When I open Pages and attempt to print I am asked to select a printer. The message that comes up is that no Airprint printers were found. It totally ignores my wePrint server app which connects Print-N-Share and PrintCentral Pro.
I have already requested a reinstatement to my account for $9.99 which Apple has thus far ignored.
Has anyone experience this or found a solution to this problem.

Hi All printers are different. I suggest you contact the printer manufacture. Do you have the installation disc that came with the printer?? Try installing the printer on all computers that do not work?? Also unplug the printer for 20 seconds. Some times I have to unplug my HP to get it to work wireless. It's kind a like rebooting your PC
Dokie!!

HP LaserJet 3015 not printing with 10.5.6

I just upgraded from 10.5.5 to 10.5.6 and my HP Laserjet does not print. I removed it and added it back but when I try to print it always gives me the following error when the printer queue is trying to connect:
Printer busy (status:0xe00002e9)
Please help.
HGCali

<Is this because i just upgraded to 10.5.6? </i>
No, probably not. I have no problems printing to my 3015 from 10.5.6.
Is apple going to do something about this?
Doubtful since it's almost certainly not Apple's problem, per se. Make sure you have the latest printer update, HP Printer Update 1.1.1, which should appear in Software Update if you haven't installed it and will probably appear in the "Installed Updates" pane of the Software Update preference. And if course if it's a networked printer you'll want to ping it to make sure that your system is actually reaching the printer.
If you continue to have problems, you'll probably want to take it up with your IT people or with HP. But you can keep an eye on this thread and see if suggestions to the OP would apply in your case as well.

Laserjet 2600n not printing black on one side of page. already cleaned the laser/scanner assembly.

laserjet 2600n not printing black on one side of page. already cleaned the laser/scanner assembly. i've cleaned the assembly a few times beofre to restor the colors as the printer is in a semi-dusti environment. after cleaning the printer was fine, then about a week later, the black - and only the black - stopped printing on the right side of the page. the text is straight across left to right then starts to waver and then then stops altogether. i tried a different black toner cartidge and the problem remains.

> so this is strictly a hardware issue as no drivers are involved. Yup. > Still prints all black. Ok its not the controller. > Still prints all black. Ok its not the fuser. > its still prints all black. OK its not the laser itself > it still prints all black. Not that part either. > What else left is there? Formatter board hasnt been mentioned. Something is sending a command to the printer that is telling it to open up the doors and charge the entire page. Normally the laser is responsible for charging the media. As the media passes over the toner doors it atracts toner particles. Then as the paper continues it rolls past the fuser where heat melts the particles into permanent place. > The power supply board maybe? Perhaps but not likely. If you have a spare you could try it but power supply problems usually result with the machine unable to boot or print correctly, not printing too much as you have described here. > Is there another part you would reccomend I look at?
You could try the old Halfway test just to verify that the problem is coming from teh laser/toner part of the printer. http://www.printertechs.com/printer-troubleshooting/halfway-test Your paper may have somehow gotten a staic charge that opposes the charge of the toner, thus auto attracting all particles in range as it passes over the toner doors. Might want to grab a fresh ream of paper to test and rule somethign crazy like that out. Not very many options left after that.

CUPS - printer via network /printserver

Hi there,
I have got some problems with a printer via network.
Situation:
Me - Arch (updated)
The Printer is connected with a printserver (Canyon) - this one is normaly conected with our LAN and is run by our Server (Windows 2000).
Normally (which also worked with Ubuntu) I have to install the printer via the Window2000-PC.
This I did with the gnome-cups-manager (the whole process with the ppd-files and so on)....
Now the problems: I can't print: All the time, when I want to print a test-page, the printer is stopped - the job, too!
I saw the part in the wiki (deleting the printer and adding it again) but it doesn't work!
Next problem is, that I'm just able to print or configure the printer as root,
what can I do?
If you need more information, you'll get them
Thanks
Martin

With network printers the better way, at least in my opinion, is to use the printer's IP address and use that to communicate with it. I tend to add it to my /etc/hosts and that gives me a simple way to "talk" to the printer accurately.
Hope this helps.

Hp laserjet 100 color mfp m175 does not print from network nor via usb cable

My hp laserjet 100 color mfp m175 just stopped printing last week. I have tried everything recommended but nothing works. I have re-install it both on wireless network and usb connection = nothing works. It prints all internal reports but nothing from any computer. I have 3 computers which I have tried to print from. It even does not print the test page. Please dont recommend to update drivers etc. as I have spend 2 whole days on this and nothing works!

Hi @einar1854,
I see by your post that you are unable to print by a USB or Wireless connection on 3 different computers, but the printer will print the hardware self tests. I can help you with this.
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
For the USB connection, follow these steps if the there are no errors from the Print and Scan Doctor.
(once we get the printer printing this way, we can setup the wireless)
Here are steps to remove the jobs from the spool folder and restart the print spooler.
How to Clear Current Print Queue In Windows Vista & Windows 7.
Follow the steps in this document to get to the device manager to check for the printer entries.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Then click on Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
In the list click on Universal Serial Bus controllers and look for USB mass storage device and USB printing support, (make sure any other printers are turned off or disconnected)
Let me know what it showed in the device manager.
Check to make sure the proper port is selected.
Go to start, Devices and Printers, right click the printer and left click Printer Properties, select the Ports tab.
Make sure the USB has a check mark beside it, if not put the check mark there and apply the changes.
Check the print Queue.
In the Devices and Printers folder.
Right-click the name of the product and then click See what's printing .
Click the Printer button, then click Cancel All Documents if there are any documents in the queue.
Click Yes to confirm the action.
If documents remain in the print queue, restart the computer.
Try printing again.
What operating system are you using on the 3 computers? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
Print a configuration page to see also if the printer has a valid IPV4 address, so we have that information for when we setup the wireless. Printing a Configuration Report.
Provide the first 3 sets of numbers in the IPV4 address.
Please provide in detail the results if you are still having issues.
Have a nice day!

Laserjet 200 will print via wireless direct but intermittently (once) via wireless network

Tried various troubleshooters on Hp and Apple websites to get this working consistently.
Installed new drivers for OSX Yosemite 10.10 - thought all would work fine as went through installing, printing test page etc. Then printer becomes unavailable - although it is on the list of printers.
Same thing has happened variuos times after re-installing it.
Will print directly via USB and wireless direct - but I want to print via the wireless network.
tried all the usual things - making sure on the right wireless network, restarting everything etc.
Using an airport router - are there some settings on this that may be causing an issue - odd though as will print once when initially connected to the wireless network.
Any ideas?

Hi @iphonebore,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that your HP Laserjet 200 M267NW will not stay connected to your wireless network running Mac OS X 10.10. I am sorry to hear this, but happy to help!
Please see the following guides:
'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print. (Follow the steps for Mac OS X 10.7, and 10.8, as they will work on 10.10.)
Printer Does Not Maintain a Wireless Connection. (This will help you with maintaining the wireless connection.)
As well, please see this post, Incoming and Outgoing Printer Ports, by @VisionAiry, and verify that none of these ports are being blocked by your router.
One more place for some more wireless printing information is our HP Wireless Printing Center - Troubleshooting Issues website.
Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting!

New HP LaserJet Professional M1212nf MFP Will Not Print Over Network

We have a new HP LaserJet Professional M1212nf MFP. I've assigned it an IP address, static, and it pulls up on it's web interface. I loaded the printer for network printing on our Small Business Server 2003 and installed it on several PCs. No matter what we do, it will not accept a print job, even the test page. Nothing sent to it will print. I've checked print spoolers, drivers, etc. Nothing seems out of place. Any suggestions?

HP Laserjet 1010 & Wireless printing via Airport USB - Not working in SL

Hi There,
After just upgrading to Snow Leopard on my MacBook I tried printing wirelessly to my HP Printer, but no luck!
Printer: HP Laserjet 1010
Connected via: Airport with USB cable
Snow Leopard recognises the printer and is fine to print when the printer is connected directly to the MacBook via USB cable, but:
When I set up wireless printing, it finds the printer (via Bonjour) but simply will not print. The print monitor gets to 24% or so of the file processed and then just stops & fails.
Everything was fine under 10.5 Leopard. It seems it should work, but no printing occurs! Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Paul

I had a similar-sounding problem with my HP1012.
The fix:
a. power-cycled the Airport Extreme.
b. Updated firmware.
c. Select Print in an application.
For an extended discussion of what I did see here - some of this may help:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2142906&tstart=60
Actually, at this point I have two printers connected: Airport Extreme ->USB powered hub ->2 printers. One is the HP1012, the other is an HP 4300 series inkjet. Took sometime to get it right, the first hub I tried apparently was not powered enough. In that vein, one earlier thread (a response to one of my posts) pointed out the possibility that the AE -> printer USB connection might not be adequately powered, and to try using an intermediate hub. Assuming your AE is performing properly in all other respects, don't rule out a cable or other printer connection issue even if the setup was working properly before.

HP Officejet Pro 7580 networked & not printing via PC or Mac

I have a hp officejet pro 7580 and I'm unable to print. I'm unable to communicate with the printer via Mac or PC. I have added the printer again and downloaded a recent update via the PC. I have restarted the ethernet router and the printer, still not printing. I have had this problem before but it "magically" started printing. Now the communication problem is back and I need help! On the PC (HP Officejet Pro L7500) shows the port in the print que address so it does see it but there is a printing error. I have an iMac (intel) running Mac OS 10.5.4 and a PC running XP Pro We have had the printer for about 3 months and this has happenned twice before. I am able to print an "Self Test Diagnostic Page" from the Mac. But any other document results in a communication error.
The first time I reloaded the software on both computers and it still didn't work then later it worked and later it happenned again and then worked days later.
Now, I've tried a "fixed IP address: 192.168.173; Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0; default gateway 192.168.1.2; Configuration source: manual; DNS Server: 192.168.1.2; Link configuration: 10TX - half (network printing). It was working for awhile.
Now, It is back again communication error (not printing), why is this happenning? Please, please help! Thanks.

Printing via Network USB print server suddenly not working any more

I have always been able to print with my USB
printers connected through a small, pocket-sized Keyspan USB Print server, Model US-4A, very easily and seamlessly, - until the very latest update to Snow Leopard.
This server is connected to my router and the rest of my in-home Mac network by means of an ethernet port, and it has four USB device ports, 1 each for my various printers and a flatbed scanner. It worked well under OS 10.6 until just now.
Now, all of a sudden, though the server hardware can still easily "see" and connect to
the printers, when I actually hit 'PRINT', then the Mac OS
print dialogues are showing some of the printers as "offline." They show up as 'unavailable' in the dialogue where you choose which printer to print to and the print dialogue boxes show the print jobs cused but then report - 'printer offline'
When I bypass the print server - and connect the same
printers directly to the Mac's USB ports, they print fine.
It suits my setup to be able to continue printing via the print server, however, and I am wondering what sort of new issue could now begin fooling the MAC OS into thinking printers are not connected when it has had no trouble with the same print server and exactly the same physical connections previously ?
I've already tried 'deleting' and uninstalling the printers and then reinstalling, and this attempted fix does not work.
Any suggestions here ? Is this a known issue with 10.6.3 ?
What has happened to suddenly bring this about ? Any ideas ?

It appears that 10.6.4 has essentially broken the US-4A usb server. Keyspan's (now Tripp-Lite) response is that the latest driver is for 10.5.x and Snow-Leopard is still not supported. (1 year after 10.6.0 was released to the public). In fact, their response is that they do not even know if they will continue to produce the US-4A. Note that the U2S-2A (2 port USB 2.0) server does not support 10.6 either. Shame on Tripp-Lite for continuing to advertise, and sell a product that does not work with the current version of OS X.

Unable to get LaserJet M175nw to print over network

I have just installed a new LaserJet 100 Pro M175nw printer on my network. However I am unable to get it to print via the network.
The printer is connected to a ethernet cable and configured with a static IP address on the network
I am using a Windows 7 computer for printing
All internal functions of the printer work correctly e.g. copy, reports
Printing works when connected via USB to a computer
When using the printer via the network:
Scanning works correctly
The embedded web mangement page for the printer works correctly
The HP Print & Scan Doctor diagnostics give the configuration all green ticks
Print jobs stay in the print queue until they change to an error status.
The printer does not seem to recognise the print job at all - no progress message indicating printing document on the console
If the printer is in sleep mode it does not wake up
Test print pages from the HP Installer, from the Windows Printer Property dialog, from Acrobat Reader and from MS Word all fail.
All symptoms remain the same when I turn off the Windows Firewall
Another HP LaserJet 2605dn printer on the network prints correctly on a different IP address but also using the RAW format on port 9100.
I have removed all drivers for other HP printers in case there was a conflict - no change after re-installing the software.
Can anyone suggest what I might have overlooked? Thanks for your help.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I am confused by your last statement, a TCP/IP is a network connection, which is why the universal print driver is suggested.
From what you have described, there is an issue with the print queue. Try running the Print and Scan Doctor :
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c03286146
Also, I am not sure if you tried the PCL6 driver or not, but I would like you to at least try it so that I know what its behavior is.
Let me know how that goes and I will get right back with you!

HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni & Windows 7 via network

I have a HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni connected to the network, not via a USB cable. How to I setup this printer so I can print to it from my WIndows 7 machine? Will HP be coming out with anything other than the Universal Print Drivers for this printer? If so, when?

The full feature download for your printer supporting windows 7 will be available for your product in late January 2010.
