HP Laserjet pro P1606 wont print certain pdf documents

My HP laserjet P1606 won't print certain pdf docs. It's connected via USB to my imac (OS 10.7.5; Adobe Reader 9.5.5). My wireless HP Photosmart 6520 has no problem printing my pdf docs. Not sure why some pdf's are able to print on the P1606 and others can't. Any solutions?

Hi @JL_MAC,
I understand that you aren't able to print all the PDF documents from the HP Laserjet P1606dn, but the Photosmart 6520 can. I can help you with this.
Run all the Adobe Reader updates to see if that helps. The latest version is 11.0.
It might be a issue with the printer language.
The Laserjet P1606dn printer is hostbased and the Photosmart 6520 printer language is PCL3 GUI.
Hope this helps.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

HP 1300 printer fails to print certain PDF documents with OSX 10.7.5.

HP 1300 printer fails to print certain PDF documents with OSX 10.7.5.

I solved this through the phone call help ( which cost me $25 ...) - there was some name colusion in the printer name - the rep basicallt uninstalled everything, did hard resent to all devices - printer, router and Mac, then installed the printer again under new name , seems to solve the problem .

I can't print certain .pdf documents in Adobe Reader?

When I try to print certain documents from in Adobe Reader XI, instead of going to my printer screen, it goes to a SAVE screen? What is happening, and how can I fix it? I am using a Brother MFC-J460W All-in-One that I just purchased a few months ago, and just download the latest available driver for it. I am using Windows 8.

In the Print dialog click the Advanced button and make sure that "Print to file" is not selected.

OfficeJet Pro 8610 Not printing certain documents

My 8610 OfficeJet Pro is set up ALMOST perfectly. It prints almost all documents including email, word, website info, etc. HOWEVER, it will not print certain .pdf files and Word documents with Drawing Tools using within them. I have run every test & shows successul setup of wireless printer. I also did the HP Print & Scan troubleshoot in which the program found any problems & Fixed them. I did not hook up the Fax part of this system. Otherwise, all parts are working fine. However, in trying to get it to work I have disabled my Print from phone as well. It was working prior to trying to print a document with Drawing Tools & changing settings on the printer to try & get it to work. It is showing me it is connected but my phone is not recoginzing the printer. When I try & Print the document with the Drawing Tool within it, it sends it to the printer, and printer shows "Printing Report", But nothing happens.

HP LaserJet Pro 400 color Printer M451dn won't print

My HP LaserJet Pro 400 color Printer M451dn stopped printing after a short usage of non hp toner. How do I get this printer to accept these toner cartridge ? My 3600dn never has a problem

If you are using non-HP toner cartridges, then I would say that the onus is on the supplier of these to resolve the problem.
Or to accept that these cartridges aren't quite as compatible as they've no doubt been advertised to be.

HP Laserjet Pro 400 color printer M451dn Driver needed

I need to install an HP Laserjet Pro 400 color printer. When I plug in the USB - it provides a driver which I can open and get to the install process - The process takes me to the point of plugging in the USB and starts to install.
After 10 minutes and getting to 99% complete the install stops because it is taking to long.
I have searched for the driver on the web site but when I click on the printer name - the HP web site goes into an
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Need help with installing this printer - this printer is only available to me by USB

Can I have you start by running through the following HP Support document:

Please respond to this post and let me know if the print quality troubleshooting steps resolved your issue. Good luck!

Getting Darker Blacks from My HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer

Hi. I own an HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer and am on a Windows XP system. For regular printing, it works great. However, for some graphic work I am doing, I can not get the blacks to print out dark enough. I can not find any settings on the print properties panel that would allow me to set a darker black coverage. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hey,
I see you are having an issue with Air Print on your CP1525nw Color Laserjet Pro. Have you tried a full network power cycle?
Unplug the router and printer while on
Power down the iOS device completely. Check out the following link for how: http://ipod.about.com/od/iphonehowtos/qt/turn_off_iphone.htm
Wait 30 seconds
Power the router up and wait for it to completely initialize before proceeding
Power the printer up and wait for it to completely initialize before proceeding
Power the iOS device back up
It sounds like the network most likely lost communication with the bonjour service of the printer.
If you need to update the firmware of the CP1525nw please click the following link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=lj-86473-9&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...

HP Laserjet Pro P1102W not printing even though it's installed...

Hello everyone. I'm relatively new to Arch, especially new with configuring cups. I just bought an HP LaserJet Pro p1102w wireless printer. I set it up on my dads laptop via plugging it into the usb and it automatically ran the setup program and I selected to set the printer up for wifi printing. All went well and the printer works now wirelessly from his computer (Windows 7). I've been working at getting this printer to actually print without error but it refuses.
I'm trying to print from leafpad, just a simple text file with little in it other than "linux test print" in the file. The print queue states "Processing - Not connected?" then it fails and gives me the option to "diagnose" the issue. So I click Diagnose. Then it pops up with a message stating that the "print server not exporting printers". It tells me to enable the "Publish shared printers connected to this system" through the printing administration panel which is in Gnome apparenetly (I'm in XFCE) under System>Administration>Printing from the main menu. In XFCE there is no such area.
I have cups version 1.5.0-1
hplip 3.11.7-2
What else should I do? Apparently the printer was installed successfully. I tried installing it and selecting the HPlip driver which installed fine but wouldn't print. Then I removed that one and installed it using the Apple driver (airprint?) and it won't print either.
I've tried searching for help but all I find is that it will work with hiplip installed... It isn't working with that installed.
I can't access the cups server via a browser. Is that the problem? I've opened the cups config page but I don't understand it and it says allow,deny under localhost or ugh i dont know, something about which users can access the server. Should I remove the "deny"??
Please help me if you can. I'm totally lost and have no idea what to do to get this printer working on my installation of arch. Arch is fully updated as of a few days ago.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
-Brittany

I can't access the cups server via a browser. Is that the problem?
Absolutely.
If you are starting cupsd from DAEMONS in rc.conf is it starting correctly or failing? If your not you should be. if it failing does start manually work?
if it's running you should be able to access via browser. localhost:631
also see/try
$ hp-toolbox
CUPS interface better option IMO tho.
EDIT spelling.... to much scotch B4 posting

HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer with Apple iPad & iPhones

I have an HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer that I've successfully used as an "air print" device to print from both iPhones and iPads. For some unknown reason, I can't print from iPhones and iPads anymore. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Is this a result of Apple most recent iOS upgrades? Everything was working with iOS 6.0.x and seems to have stopped working with iOS 6.1.x.
I "think" I'm try to determine what I need to upgrade (printer firmware or iOS device firmware . . . or both).
Thanks in advance.

HP LaserJet Pro 200 m251nw - Printing Gray instead of Black

HI,
Hoping someone can help. I'm currently using a HP LaserJet Pro 200 m251nw printer, just over a year old, and it all of sudden started printing gray where it should be 100% black. From what I can see all the other colors seem to work fine.
I saw similar posts but nothing clear.
A new black toner cartridge was replaced, system settings restored, multiple cleanings, etc. I currently use a Mac Laptop running Mavericks with the latest drivers that I downloaded.
Am I out of luck? Is this beyond a software issue?
Thank you,
Chris

Thanks for providing that information clodsgn.
Since the self test is printing in gray, it would be a hardware issue. Possibly the toner, hardware or the fuser.
What are all the toner levels?
This can affect the output of the black printing.
Are you using all Genuine HP Toner?
The options are probably different, since you changed to Laserjet 251nw drivers. You can change driver back if you like.
Since right now we are looking at a hardware issue.
Run a calibration on the printer.
On the printer touch the wrench, system setup, print quality, color calibration calibrate now.
Print a Diagnostics Page to see if you have the same results. Trying to determine if it is a hardware or software issue.
Go to Setup, Reports, arrow down and select Diagnostics Report. Check the color blocks, any shadows, each corner check the L-shaped to see if the printer is alignment.
Here is a screen shot:
Try this document to see if it will help.
Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues.
Start at the section for Check toner cartridge status and finish up on Check the paper and printing environment.
What were the results of the Print Quality Page and Diagnostics page?
Thank You.
