HP Laserjet p3015 Major Issue

I recently purchased a brand new Laserjet p3015 printer to run our service dept. work order printing. The problem I am having is that the print test page comes out fine, and so will the first actual print from the printer, as long as it is only one page. From there on out, the printer processes the file and then just freezes up and stops loading. It appears to be getting stuck in the printer queue as not all of the print job loads, (e.g. 156kb/356kb). This is the ONLY printer we have for us, and it is not allowing us to do our job. I have tried the driver from the disk, the PCL 5 and 6 universal drivers, all having the same issue. One PC runs on Vista and another on Windows 7, the Vista machine being mine and the one that I have tried all 3 drivers from. Even the HP diagnostic tool gets hung up stating the print queue is stuck. This is very frustrating to have happen as I have tried everything my fairly confident and educated technical mind can think of, and the fact that our business just spent $500 on a printer we cannot use. If anyone has any sort of help, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot and have a nice weekend.

Having a similar issue with Windows 7 machines.
PCL XL error
Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: MissingAttribue
Operator: BeginPage
Position: 3
One user started having problems, so I have deleted and readded the printer, which works for awhile, then stops. Deleting and readding the printer seems to make it work again.
Another user cannot print at all ... Deleting and re-adding doesn't make a difference. This user wasn't affected until we updated our print server w/ 38 or so Windows updates. The print server is running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise (64-bit); some of or users are on XP, some on Win7 (all 32-bit); soon all will be on Win7.

Hp LaserJet P3015 printer "waiting for printer to become available" message

Hello All,
I have searched through many message boards about this issue (some steaming back to as far as 2009) and I have yet to find a solution that has worked for me.
Background of situation:
In my office we have a dozen iMacs and Networked hp LaserJet P3015 printers. Most work perfectly fine with out issue. We are currently running 10.8.4 OS. There are a few issues that seem to be unique to users or types of iMacs. 1) Three brand new iMacs (the skinny ones that come without the CD drives) where showing a message prompting for the "printer operator group". I have that setting turned off but reguardless I added the user accounts to the "printer operator group" as well as the "printer admin group". After I did that the users started to recieve the message "waiting for printer to become avaible". When this message appears it never printers (I left it for a 20 minute period to no avail). I have tried a whole host of fixes with short term success but the issue keeps reoccuring. Here is a list of fixes I have tried:
What I have tried
1) I plugged the iMac directly into the printer via USB cable to install the drivers locally
2) I added the user to the printer operator group and the printer admin group
3) I checked all settings on both the printer and computer
4) I have removed and re-added the printer several ways (from the network and directly via UBS cable)
5) I checked the Ethernet connection to the printer (all are fine) (also eliminated the need for it by directly plugging her in via USB cable)
6) I have "power" shut down the printer
7) I restarted the printer settings on the network to eliminate any lingering issues
8) Made sure the software is up to date (which according to some message boards is what the problem is)
9) I have replaced both the actual Computer and Printer (with another brand new iMac), while additionally creating a new user account to eliminate hardware and faulty user settings as the culprit, as well as plugged the printer directly into the computer and removed it from the network.
10) I prayed to the IT gods
Other Notes:
I did see a solution from a message board that said to delete all "hp_" files in system/library/extensions and then directly plug the printer into the computer to install the drivers that way (which he said worked) but the guys also said that if he ran software update then the issue would re-occur. This seems to be counter productive as I like to keep all software up to date
What I have noticed:
- The issue seems to affect the newer iMacs in my office more then the older machines despite everyone running the same OS version
Thank you all so much in adavanced for your time reading my post. The issue has been extremely frustrating for both me and the end users and I appreaciate any help that anyone can provide (even if its just pointing me in the direction of another message board)
- Chris

You have not mentioned it but based on some of the things that you have said, I would assume that the Mac's are bound to a domain. So, for one of these Mac's, if you logged on locally and then created a print queue to the network printer, do you get the same message?

Hp LaserJet P3015 randomly miss prints random letters.

Hi
I wonk as a It technician in a College environment. We have a computer lab with 40 Dell OptiPlex 390's connected via a local area network to a Hp Laser Jet P3015. The students have to use a water mark during exams as a way to identify on witch computers they wrote the exam. Now on random occasions Radom alphabetical characters are being miss printed for example all the "I's" or "T's" in the document won't simply print. To get the machine to print correctly I have to reboot the pc and printer and this can cause a lot of trouble during the exams. I have tried using different drivers (UPD PCL 6 and UPD PLC 5) but the miss prints still occur. Microsoft office 2010 and 2007 was running parallel on the computers, but I uninstalled 2010 due to the fact that our text books for 2010 will only be available next year. Please can anybody assist me.

The majority of the tools in the PCL Paraphernalia application generate print jobs; the Target menu allows the user to select the target (network-connected) printer, or to direct the output instead to a file.
However, four of the tools do not interact directly with a printer, and the Target menu is irrelevant for these tools; the PRN File Analyse tool is one of these, and with this tool, the file to be analysed is selected via the Open Print File ... button in the dialogue of that tool.
The Downloads page of the website provides a link to a Windows .chm Help file, which describes the application and each tool.
The TrueType Courier New display font is usually mapped to an equivalent printer-resident scalable Courier font on most LaserJet (and clone) printers - I don't have access to a LaserJet P3015, so I don't know for sure which printer-resident fonts are available - you could find out by printing out a PCL Typeface (Font) List from the printer.
Your captured mytest.prn file:
Shows that a font selection sequence for the printer-resident Courier font is present, but also downloads 11 different PCL soft fonts - 10 of these are in resolution-specified bitmap font format, the other one is in PCL Encapsulated TrueType (PCLETTO) format - without a lot of additional checking, I don't know which font is used for which bits of text in your print document.
Prints (2 pages), without any apparent problem, on my local LaserJet 1320n printer - there do not appear to be any missing characters, so either you have captured a sample which does not exhibit the fault, or the problem is within your own printer, not the driver-generated print stream.
I can't post the analysis output here, as this (Consumer) forum does not provide file upload facilities; the equivalent Business forum (see http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-and-Digital-Imaging/ct-p/bsc-412 ), which is probably more relevant to your printer model and configuration, does provide this feature.

Upgraded to Yosemite now print to HP Laserjet P3015 on the network

Have been using the office HP Laserjet P3015 with my MacBook running Mavericks with no issues.
As soon as I upgraded to Mavericks, cannot print:
First, I tried the existing printer configuration and got nothing as it showed the document stuck in the queue.
Next, tried deleting the printer to add again. The Mac does not see the printer on the network anymore. So I tried the IP address method of adding the printer and specifying the IP address of the printer and the exact printer model.
Here, the error message was "Unable to verify the printer on your network. Unable to connect to <IP address> due to an error. Would you still like to create the printer? I clicked Continue and the printer appeared on the printer list.
Again, when printing, the job gets stuck in the queue and says the job is "Printing - The printer is in use"
Note that before trying all of this, I tried resetting the printer system, rebooting, and then installing the latest HP Printer Drivers v3.0 for OS X.

HP LaserJet P3015 phantom paper jam?

Hi,
We just bought two new HP LaserJet P3015 printers in the last month, one works well while the other seems to have a phantom paper jam. We seem to notice it when someone is printing a longer document, say 10+ pages. The printers will stop printing, the red light will come on, and the screen will ask to open the top and remove a paper jam. Once you open the top and close it, and hit OK, it will continue to print. I have gone through t he machine top and bottom and cannot find a scrap of paper in there. The other machine that is working well is using the same type of paper, and actually sees a great volume of printing.
We have updated the drives on the computers. Any suggestions?
Cheers, Paul

Have you upgraded to the latest Firmware? You can find it here:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3815801&...
I didn't notice a specific fix listed for the issue, but it's good to have the latest FW. Also if you have one device that works and one that doesn't, it might be good to see if they have the same FW version. This will be listed on the configuration report.
I also found a reference to a change to the duplexer pan design.

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on

I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues. The screen is very slow to respond. When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on. I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off. It is very, very frustrating. The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly. I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues. They tell me to do different things that never help. We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues. Help! It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract. Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

I have done that several times. In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly. I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time. It never does. After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying. I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not. I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine. I know I got a bad phone. Verizon just does not listen. It is a bad phone. I just want a new phone that works properly. Is that too much to ask? I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one. Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this? It shouldn't be this difficult! Help please!!!

Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse. The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

I am having major issues with links in keynote! Even though the links (a navigation system) are on the master page, they are only working on some of my slides. Anyone have ideas on how to fix this or similar issues? Help!
I have created a navigation system on the master pages and set the presentation to links only mode. I also have other links scattered throughout the program, like a linkable table of contents, etc. Some of them work, some of them don't. Not sure why. Anyone out there having similar issues? Or have any idea on how I can solve this issue? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Links should not create any problems in Keynote. If they are set up correctly on text, the text will be underlined. Objects that have links will have a curved arrow bottom right, if you click the arrow a popup will display the link information.
Try this repair for Keynote, ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:
1
delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application
2
empty the trash: Finder > Empty Trash
3
Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in.
4
Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
5
when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click repair disc permissions
6
when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart
7
install Keynote from the Mac App Store
let us know if this helped

HP Laserjet P3015 double sided - the last odd page prints on the same page when printing two copies

HP Laserjet P3015 double sided printing is set up on Windows 7. When printing two copies of a document, if it has odd number of pages, the last page is printed on both sides of the page. There is no page feed for the last page.
Suppose say there are 3 pages in a document and you want to print two copies. It prints like 1/2, 1/2 and 3/3. The third page (odd number) print on the same page. The last page page does not print on two pages.
It works alright on Windows XP.

Hope that you have configured the correct paper type and size in the printer hardware and also selecting the same paper tray, size, type from the printer driver while printing.
It may be caused due to the job formatting done by the application software or some jobs settings done from the job/application or printer driver. Check by toggling the 'collate' option and also try to print from a different application software.
Please mark the post that solves your problem as Accepted Solution

What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analys

What are the major issues to consider in code review? Or performance analysis?

I would not recommend you to try to optimize performance by checking the coding.
There is the code inspector which can do all which makes sense automatically.
The above mentioned points are not the real issues.
Instead of code review you should execute test cases and measure the exection time.
1. With STAD if you want to get good time measurement
2. With SE30 and ST05, if you want to have data for further anaylsis.
Check total time (SE30), check whether DB part is large, then go to SQL trace. Do the check mentioned here
/people/siegfried.boes/blog/2007/09/05/the-sql-trace-st05-150-quick-and-easy
to find the SQL bottlenecks.
The major point about SQL problems is index support, if there is no proper index support then the performance will be poor. Be aware, that problems are only visible, if you tables are filled.
In a test system where you have very little data, you will never encounter performance problems.
Check also the Top10 of the SQ30 hit list.
Be aware that a proper performance analysis is not a 5 minutes job.

Dear All,what are the major issues in implementation in sap hcm

what are the major issues in implementation in SAP HCM project scope is PA ,OM,TIME, INDIA PAYROLL

Hi Ramjan,
Try to have a clear understanding of requirements and find the best solution in SAP. Keep as much as possible everything standard and based on SAP best practices.
In PA look for a comprehensive enterprise structure. It's base for everything.
DON"T do anything through development(ABAP code) as much as possible specially in PT and PY. Try to do claculation by PCRs and Schema.

What are the major issues in implementation SAP CRM sales and CIC.

Hi
We are newly implanting the project to the mobile Manfaturing Company. Our Clint is going for are looking to implement the CIC interaction center win Clint and the Sales modules of CRM .
We have some 3rd parry raw data with us with that raw data we are calling to the customers and we want create the opportunity in the CIC after that we will convert the opportunity as a sales with our other sales people. After that they will sale that product to that customers.
We have the back end of the R/3 SD, MM modules implemented for Clint.
Now 1) I want to know after implementation what are the major issues will come in the project normally for the conman Sales and CIC Win Clint projects kindly give the some issues normally come and solutions for the problems also.
My motto is that if I know the issues I can make preparation for that conman issues and I will make my project with good effective and smooth running ..
with Regards,
prakesh
Edited by: prakesh on Dec 9, 2009 6:04 AM

hi prakesh,
firstly, cic winclient is an older version and obsolete so its better to implement the new crm version.
secondly, in any case if you want to implement, then your 3rd party raw data has to be mapped with the SAP system which could be a problem. Middleware could be a lot of effort. Rest all depends on how much customization you need for your business requirement in cic and sales. In case you are implementing standard functionality mostly then no major complications are expected otherwise lot of development effort may be required.

Having major issues with InDesign CS6

Having major issues with InDesign CS6. Not only is it crashing, but it is corrupting the existing file. Then when I relaunch, it is not allowing me to open the file again.
In another instance, yesterday I opened an file created 3 months ago and it allowed me to make changes, however I could not save them to the existing file, or not even to a new name.
I had to copy each layer on each page to create a new document. NOT GOOD!!!

Yes, I would certainly get the latest update. That we often solve issues like these, for this is not normal. Some further tips would be quite InDesign, then to trash your InDesign preferences and then re-start InDesign (it will rebuild them again). Some further areas to look into would be:
* Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
* Corrupt Image(s)
* Power Failures (power surges)
* Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
* Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
If all else fails, we as Markzware (I work for them) also offer a Service to fix corrupt InDesign documents. See:
http://markzware.com/support/faq/recover-bad-file-service/
Hopefully this helps you.
