HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents & envelope problem

My HP LaserJet P2055dn Printer won't print the last page of documents until i send another document, then it will print the last page of the previous document, but omit the last page of the current document. I need to keep printing a blank page or any other page to get my previous documents completely printed. Also, the envelopes print with large rectangular boxes on them and no address (I don't know if this is a result of the previous stated problem or not - it started happening at the same time) I use the envelope feature in Microsoft Word 2010. I never used to have either of these problems - didn't make any changes to the system or add any software to the computer, so I know it's not that. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

Hey @wmowafi,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing a slow printing issue on Windows 8.1 when printing to your HP Laserjet P1006 Printer. I would like to work with you today at resolving this issue. Now the only driver available for your product on Windows 8.1 is a hostbased plug and play basic generic driver. Therefore, there is limitations for what can be done for troubleshooting. As you stated, you have already attempted an uninstalled and reinstalled of the driver to no avail. I'm going to suggest some further steps and tools to resolve this issue for you.
Step 1: Uninstall Your Printer:
Disconnect your USB cable
Click the following link: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to access the Microsoft Uninstall Tool.
Once the website opens, select Run Now on the right hand side
Allow the Tool to run.
When prompted choose Uninstall
A list of programs should populate and you're looking for the Laserjet. It may appear as LJ P1000 series. Please select the Laserjet series and Uninstall it.
If the Laserjet doesn't show in the list of programs than your Windows 8.1 computer does not see the Laserjet driver as properly installed.
Step 2: Clear the Temp Files:
Launch your Start screen by right clicking on the Windows icon on the bottom left of your screen or by select the Windows button on your keyboard located to the right of the Ctrl button.
Once the Start screen launches, type the word Run
Click on Run to launch it
In the Run box type %temp% and select OK
Once the Temp folder opens, hold down Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard and everything will highlight in the folder. Select 'Delete' on your keyboard. Don't worry, no files or folders on your actual computer will be removed during this process. If a file is still be used on your computer you will get a pop up to 'skip' the file
Once the Temp folder is emptied of its files, close the window
On your Desktop, right click on the Recycling Bin and left click on 'Empty Recycling Bin'
Restart you computer
Step 3: Reinstall the Laserjet P1006:
Please keep your USB cable disconnected
Click on the following link: HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver
The driver page for your product will now launch
Select Download and allow the download to Run
Once the download is complete an extraction will automatically run and once completed the installer will launch
Run through the step-by-step on screen instructions.
Please do not plug in your USB cable until prompted
Ensure that your USB cable is plugged in from the rear of the printer directly to the computer. Avoid extenders or docking stations as they can cause printing and communication issues.
Test printing!
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your issue. Good luck!

HP LaserJet P2055dn prints PDF's inverted

Hi,
I'm having a problem where PDFs are printing inverted from 10.6.1 from any of two new MacBook Pros or one MacBook Air in the office connected to a networked HP LaserJet P2055dn. The HP LaserJet P2055dn is connected to the computers wirelessly via a late model Apple Airport Extreme.
To reproduce the problem, I choose any PDF file where the background is white and the text is black and print from any of the above mentioned computers in the office and the output from the printer on paper is a black background with white text.
I have tried:
- Rebooting the computers, turning the printer on and off
- Changing the color matching between in-printer, and any number of profiles on the computer
- Saving the PDF in preview using a Quartz Filter for Black and White, Reduced File Size, Gray, etc
- Printing from Adobe Reader
- Changing the paper type in the print dialog box
- Changing output resolution (600dpi, 1200dpi, etc)
- Changing the output quality (draft, proof, etc)
- Going through the options menu on the printer itself (no obvious related settings to be found)
I have tried this with PDFs created using Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500m (the primary source for PDFs around the office) as well as PDFs coming from the eFax on-line service (the other typical source for PDFs around the office). Color documents with black text on white backgrounds authored in Apple's Pages program print correctly with black text on white backgrounds.
If I import any of the problem PDFs into Photoshop (forcing me to choose a specific pixel resolution and pick a specific page) the resulting image prints correctly (black text on a white background).
I have tried printing problem PDFs using Preview, Adobe Reader and PDF Pen.
My first thought was to update the printer drivers, but HP's customer support site says that there are no driver downloads for this printer for Snow Leopard because Snow Leopard ships with the latest drivers.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
Jeremy

I should note that these documents print normally on an LaserJet 1320n, and always have.
Furthermore, when viewed onscreen using Pages, they appear normal. Since what we do is "fill out" these forms using Pages, we put black text on the scanned image and then print it. The scanned image comes out in negative, while the text comes out black as intended. Net result: black text on a black background, just in case you didn't follow that.
So there's something screwy about the image itself and how the printer and/or driver handles it.
More data: this happens with multiple computers, all running the same version of the OS, all with the latest printer drivers. Only one of the computers has the Fujitsu software on it. The rest do not.
It happens consistently, each and every time the document is printed. It is not a random occurrence. But whether or not it happens in the first place does seem to be random. I.e., we cannot nail down which documents cause the problems and which do not. I am having a test run to see if OCR'ing the document using the FineText (or whatever it's called) OCR program solves the problem.
I'll also have a go at letting ColorSync "reduce the file size" to see if that does something to the image that helps us out.
Will post more as I find out more...

HP Laserjet P2055dn prints the word JOB first

I have installed HP Laserjet P2055dn as a local printer. But when I print a document, it prints the word 'JOB' first before printing my document. I wanted to know how to stop this option. Thank you in advance.

Yes and No. Yes, its fixed but not me. The printer resolved itself. (I don't know how). The last thing I remember is that after setting the default paper size (A4), I tried printing without changing the paper size in the printer settings, I left it as default, hit the print button, then voila! It's fixed! no more "JOB" on the first printed paper. I hope will someone will help us soon. It's been a while.

HP Laserjet P2055dn printing erratically

We have setup the P2055dn printer on our network (most PC's are Win 7 Pro - 64 bit). When printing large documents the printer will not print all of the pages missing a few of them.
Also when printing multiple copies the printer only prints 1 or 2 not all of the requested copies.

There's no printer setting for BITMAP. However, I did find 2 settings that I changed.
1. In the PRINT window there was a drop down asking for document and markup. I changed this to just document.
2. There was a checkbox that says: PRINT AS IMAGE. I clicked this.
NOW, it prints fast like all of my other stuff. I'm not sure which of the above 2 items did the trick but it did. Now I have to figure out how to set these as DEFAULT SETTINGS.
What do you use to open PDF files if not Adobe Reader? Last week I moved Adobe Reader to the trash but none of my PDF files would open without it.
I appreciate any comments suggestions.

LaserJet P2055dn is not printing the last page

Hello! Our LaserJet P2055dn prints all pages in a multipage document but not the last one. When a new document is sent to the printer, it first prints the final page of the previous document, then the new document (again without the last page). If a one page document is printed, it works without a problem.
Anyone know how to solve this?

Laserjet p2055dn installation software for windows 7

Just bought a HP Laserjet p2055dn printer and got error message as soon as I started to install software on my Windows 7 computer. Is updated software available for this printer? If so, how do I get it? Will go back to store tomorrow if necessary.
Thanks for any advice.

I see this msg has been moved to the hotsync group - maybe I didn't state my question clearly - I'm no longer using my palm pilot - I am [was] only using the software onh my computer and using it as my contacts list. I now need to retrieve the information from those files and transfer them to another contact program but can't open the files because the new computer w/Win 7 won't accept the original software CD - what I need is to know if there is other software that can open the files.

Hp color laserjet 2600n, very dim grayish film when printing black only

For some reason, my hp color laserjet 2600n has started printing with a very dim grayish film over each page. I've had this printer for about a year, and it didn't do this at first. Does it no matter what program I print from. I'm sure it's a setting issue, but haven't been able to figure it out. Any ideas?
And, when I select to print in black only, it still prints the color on web pages. Is there a way to print from only the black cartridge? These are the options in the printer dialogue box under color: print in grayscale, black only, 4-color. Under these settings are other options, edge control, half-tone and RGB color. I've tried each setting individually and still the gray film. The only other possibility I can see is under Print Options, it has draft quality or image quality. I've tried both and still the film.
Have any ideas.

1. take out all of the ink cartriges and look at the big black roller on the door for streaking, if streaking, clean with a lint free cloth dampened with windex (window cleaner) then close the door.
2. let it run to initializing.
3. open the door and look and the black roller on the door to see if you have streaking. If no streaking put one cartridge in and close the door and repeat the steps until you find what cartridge is causing the problem.
I did this and found that my cyan was creating the lines on my paper. I cleaned the cyan roller with a Qtip and some rubbing alcohol and it works fine now, no more lines on the paper.
Cheers

Laserjet p2055dn is slow printing pdf files using mac

My Mac is very slow printing pdf files on my hp laserjet p2055dn. I have noticed fixes for this problem for people using Windows. Is there a Mac solution?

Do you want to create PDF files using Java? If so, there is a library available at http://www.lowagie.com/iText/docs.html Check out this site. There are many more similar PDFGEnerator tools that you can use..

Is there any way to print from the iPAD 3 to a HP LaserJet P2055dn? I called Applecare and was told I could not print to my wireless HP Printer.

I own a iPAD 3. It will not print to my wireless printer: a HP LaserJet P2055dn. I called Applecare and they had no solution. I don't see such a basic function--printing--is not available. Does anyone have a way to print from the iPAD 3 to a HP LaserJet P2055dn?

HP LaserJet P2055dn and Printing from Adobe Reader

Everything prints just fine from my Mac Mini, EXCEPT: for some strange reason PDF files that are opened via Adobe Reader are taking forever to print. It's as if it's taking a break. One page will finally print, then it stops and nothing happens for over 5 minutes.
The green light on my HP Laserjet is blinking which shows that it's planning on printing another page. What is up with this?
Typically, in regards to Word, Excel files OR even when I print an email OR even a page from a website.... the printer starts immediately and knocks it out.... FAST!
But, when I go to print PDF files that are opened using Adobe Reader.... its like pulling teeth.
My software is OS X 10.8.2.
My printer is HP LaserJet P2055dn
PLEASE HELP! THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS!

There's no printer setting for BITMAP. However, I did find 2 settings that I changed.
1. In the PRINT window there was a drop down asking for document and markup. I changed this to just document.
2. There was a checkbox that says: PRINT AS IMAGE. I clicked this.

HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print pdf files

I have just hooked up a new iMac with Mac OS 10.9.5 and now my reliable HP Laserjet P2055dn won't print .pdf files anymore--it just hangs for hours. I am an academic and work 50% with pdf's. I tried to download a new driver from the HP site for all MAC OS systems 10.7 and up, but the message when the download was finished opened up in a little box that reads: "ljp2055_Firmware_Upd Image not recognised."
I've unplugged, plugged back in, turned off, turned back on countless times. Don't know what else to try?
Thank you.

Hi john, I did some looking around and maybe try this page for some tips, sometimes the microsoft forums help me out dearly.

TS3147 Photos print very dark on HP1025 LaserJet, and solutions?

Photos print very dark on HP1025 LaserJet color printer. I have installed and reinstalled software several times, both from CD and HP site.
Asides from going into PhotoShop and manually manipulating each color photo, is there something simpler to correct this problem?
I have read similar comments on other boards, and have not found a solution. Is this just the nature of the beast for the HP1025 for Mac?

What system and iPhoto versions are you running? What type of Mac do you have? Have you tried calibrating the screen in the System/Display/Color preference pane.
Does the print window for the HP have any of the options that are shown in this screenshot for Epson or Canon printers?
If it does you can change the color management and color matching and color management to see if you can get what you want. Once you do you can save the settings as a Preset like the R280 Color Glossy in the screenshot.

Hp Laserjet 4200, Printer Virus or Software Failure?

Have been using a HP Laserjet 4200/4300 series, very few issues, very good printer.
Background:
Small office, this printer is attached to my computer but able to be used by 4 other machines on the network.
We are using everything from windows ME to Windows 7 xp.
What happened:
all day long we were printing & by the afternoon it just stopped. At that time only 2 computers had sent in print requests. Mine was sending Page prints of gov web sites using the latest version of mozilla firefox and I am running Windows 7 xp and the 2nd was sending Word Perfect docs and its on XP. In going through the Que, the printer says they all now have unspecified errors and will not print.
Printer/Proterties/General - print test page
Will not print
Hardware/Menu/Print test, cleaning, Menu map.. all print
Device is Working
Paper is full
Ink is in
Since then I have cleared the Que and sent several different types of things to print from all different types of programs.. the print manager say they all have errors.
So.. Printer Virus or Software Failure?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!
thank you for reading. Sorry for not being more technically savvy.
Please ask for any details.

Just got off the phone with a friend (who is a lot smarter than I) and recommended turning off the printer, then truning it back on and holding down the mainuser button (the one with the check mark) and letting the printer do its thing.
just printed the test page.. so good news there. Still not sure what exactly happened..
