HP LJ CP1215 Unable To Print over Network Sharing

I'm having trouble with my CP1215 printing over the network via microsoft sharing. It was working fine and then one day stopped working. I've already removed it and re-installed it on the remote PC with window XP and removed a re-installed the physical connection and the software and drivers on the host PC with Windows XP, as well. The host computer has no trouble printing anything. The remote computer can't even print a test page. When I send a job to the printer from the remote computer it appears in the print queue on the host computer as "Printing" but hangs there for a minute or two and eventually disappears and nothing happens on the printer itself. Firewalls have all been turned off/disabled during tests, as well. Anyone have any ideas?

No one has any ideas on this? From looking around in Google a bit, this seems to be common, but no one has had any answer for it yet.
I just talked to HP.  I had to set the cp1215 as the default printer on my wireless laptop for it to print. 
As long as it is set to default printer it works fine, but if something else is the default, it goes to the cue and eventually disappears without printing.

  • Unable To Print Over Ethernet Network on HP 6520 all in one

    All computers are on windows 8.1. My question or issue is this: Prior to purchasing a Mediabridge wireless router, wireless-n broadband 300 mps router, I had a Zyxtel wireless access point router. I am both Ethernet and wireless. Prior to the Mediabridge I would network print to my HP printer both wireless (iPhone) and over an Ethernet network (PC's and Laptop).
    There is an improvement in printing wirelessly on an iPhone. I cannot print over my Ethernet network any longer. I have to unplug my laptop prior to printing before my laptop can see the printer online. With my second PC in another room I am unable to print over the Ethernet network. The printers are installed, drivers and such, but as with the laptop, I would have to unplug the Ethernet cord to print.
    My error messages are showing as cannot find printer or or my control panel printer devices show as offline. If I unplug my laptop I can see the printers online. However I don't want to have to take disconnect a second PC in another room to print.
    Can you offer any suggestions. Do I need to plug my printer directly into the Mediabridge wireless router?

     Hi Nancyh1030,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Photosmart 6520 Printer and getting the error and not printing. Here is a link to the HP Print and Scan Doctor. The HP Print and Scan Doctor will run a check on your system and connect the printer to same network as the computer. You do have to be connected to the same wireless as the printer to print to it. Unless you are using Eprint. If this does not help you contact Mediabridge.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Unable to print to network HP 3845 using Windows 7

    I have an HP 3845 Color Deskjet connected directly to a machine running Windows 2000 with printer sharing enabled.
    All of my Windows XP Laptops have been able to print to this printer over my wireless network. However, I have been unable to get my new laptop running Windows 7 to use this printer.
    The Windows 7 laptop could not find the correct driver when I tried to configure it using the wireless connection.
    I then connected this printer to my laptop directly using the USB port and the laptop detected and configured the printer correctly for this connection.
    I then re-connected the printer to my Win2k box and tried to change the configuration of my Windows 7 box to have the printer accessed via a TCP/IP port. It looks to be configured correctly to me but it never successfully prints a test page.

    James,
    I'm sorry to hear that you were having the same problem under 9.5.  I had recently updated to Adobe Reader 10 under Windows 7 and yesterday my "default printer" simply disappeared from the options on my control panel.  I re-installed my printer, but today whenever I would open a PDF document and try to print it, the document would simply close with no further ado.  After a bit of trial and error, I ended up uninstalling Adobe Reader 10 and going back to Adobe Reader 9.5.  Now everything is working just fine.

  • Printing over network printer (HP Officejet 8500)

    Hi,
    I have a HP Officejet 8500A which is connected over ethernet to our intranet.

  • C7280 AIO won't print over network. Was working on WiFi, still works on USB.

    My AIO quit printing over the network after 2 years of service. The USB port still prints OK. My Linksys utility still sees the printer, and I even get ink levels back, but print jobs are hung up in the queue with status 'Error - Printing'.  I tried a wired ethernet connection and got the same result, so it's not a wireless problem, but rather networking in general. The network report indicates everything is normal, but I still can't print. I re-installed the driver but that didn't work.
    I am running Vista, and the printer had been working fine till two weeks ago. My wife would use the USB port to print, and she said she got updates for the printer. HP doesn't distribute f/w updates for the printers themselves, does it? It's as if the networking f/w in the printer got hammered.

    No joy.
    I'm connected with Ethernet port. I have disabled the firewall. The IP address matches on the printer's network status report, and on the Printer dialog box on the computer. I can see that the printer is connected when I run a Linksys utility. I can get the ink levels and I can print an alignment page.
    But I can't print a document. About 60 seconds after I initiate the print job, the status changes from 'Printing' to Error - Printing'.
    I clearly have connectivity, but something is preventing me from sending a document. Any ideas to try, or tests to run?
    I think the same behavior occurs in wireless mode, but I think I have a better chance with a wired connection right now. As I said, USB works OK.
    Thanks,
    SWW

  • Problems printing over network

    i have a macbook pro and a macbook air running os x 10.5.8 that i usually print with over my wifi network to a kyocera mita fs-1010 that is connected by usb to a powerbook G4 running 10.3.9. the past few weeks there have been problems.
    at first when i printed something it looked like the doc was spooling to the printer but then nothing came out the other end. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, and the printer over LPD and IPP but it didn't improve.
    i found this kb article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2275 and ran the terminal command
    cupsctl BrowseProtocols='"cups dnssd"'
    next time i went to install the printer, the fs-1010 was there in the default list, i added it and all worked fine.
    until today, the fs-1010 has disappeared from the printer list & i can't add it back & it's not showing up if i run the terminal command.
    what may be the problem, and can anyone please help with a fix ?
    thanks.

    Well there must be something blocking the cups broadcast. Do you have the firewall enabled on any Mac or router? When the browsing is set to Bonjour, these packets will typically be allowed to pass through the network. But since you had to change the broadcast detection method to include CUPS (to support 10.3.9), then maybe this is being blocked between the PowerBook and the other Mac's?
    If there is no firewall blocking, then another possible cause could be IP addressing. By default, Mac's on the same subnet as other Mac's will receive information being broadcast about shared printers. However, if the Mac is on a different subnet to the Mac sharing the printer, then the packet will not be seen. To resolve this you can ensure all Mac's are set to the same IP subnet (typically the first three numbers of the IP address).

  • Unable to printer through network

    Hi, I am currently unable to print through the wireless network.  I set up the printer yesterday, and it printed ok. The printer is a HP Office Jet Pro Preium . When I try to print I get the message "Unable to communicate with printer.  Printer unavailable or not connected".  The printer says that it is properly connected to the network.  Any ideas?

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having trouble installing your HP Photosmart c4580 printer on Mac OS X 10.5.8. And, I am happy to help! I would recommend to try uninstalling the software again, (in case their is still some software partially installed.) Uninstall the Printer Software. And, then try resetting the print system, and verifying and then reinstall the software using this direct link.  Hope this helps!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

  • Photosmart D5160 printing over network

    I have a Photosmart D5160 connected to a Dell desktop PC running Windows 8.1 64bit, and 2 laptops, a Toshiba running Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit and a newer Sony running Windows 7 Pro 64bit.  
    From the Toshiba I can connect to the printer over my wifi network and print happily.  And this used to be the case for the Sony laptop as well, but recently that has changed.  I can still connect to the printer connected to the Dell over wifi, but I cannot print.  The print jobs get stuck in the Sony's spooler and eventually disappear without printing.  If I connect the printer directly to the Sony it works fine.
    I have tried deleting and reconnecing to the printer over the network.  I have tried running the Printer Install wizard, but that doesn't find the printer if it's not USB connected.
    Comparing the properties of the printer on the Toshiba and the Sony, the driver list is different - partly because the Toshiba is 32 bit and the Sony 64 bit.  But the driver list on the Sony is the same for the printer whether it is USB or network connected.
    Help please!

    Oh, and Print & Scan Doctor only finds the USB connected instance of the printer, not when it is connected over the network

  • Unable to print to network printer // sometimes with port error

    I upgraded to Leopard and am now _*unable to print to my network attached*_ *_Lexmark x9350_*. In prefs it shows the printer and driver installed. Once a print job is submitted, it reads printing, but there is no action on the printer. Other times it gives a port error. I tested the printer under OSX 4 and it printed with no problem. I also have a similar problem on the XP partition of this system. Please advise.

    I don't think Lexmark has a Leopard driver for this printer yet. This problem was discussed earlier here

  • 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?

  • Windows 7 64-bit cannot find HP C5280 printer over network

    I've had this working under the same conditions for several years, same computers, same printer, same network configuration.  One day, my computer stopped being able to print to the network computer, coming back with errors.  I uninstalled the printer and when I went to reinstall, it cannot locate the printer at all.  Everyone else on the network can see and use the printer, I can see and access the computer that it's plugged into, but going through the add a printer wizard, even specifically going into that computer manually, it sees no printer.
    I've run through the Microsoft Fixit, no results.  I've run through the HP Network Troubleshooter, no results.  I've rebooted all computers in question, no results.  It's not a networking problem, as I said, because I can fully access every other computer on the network.  The printer has been verified as shared and operable from every other computer on the network.
    Ideas?  Thanks.

    Check that printer sharing is still enabled on the host computer.  If it is, let's delete and re-add the printer on the host PC:
    1. Unplug the printer's USB cable.
    2. Go to Start > Control Panel > Devices and Printers and delete all instances of the printer.
    3. Plug the printer USB cable back in and wait for the PC to re-add it.
    4. Once it is re-added, right click the printer and enable/setup Printer Sharing.
    Try again from the ohter PC(s).

  • Can't connect to my printer over network anymore

    We upgraded to ox10.9 and since then we can't connect to the brother laser printer connected to our other computer. I went to brother's web site and downloaded the newest driver and now when I click on "add printer" it's not even there. I don't know what to do. I reset my printers and it's still not showing up... only if I connect it via a USB. Before 10.9 I could connect to the printer over bonjour because I was connected on my other lap top..
    any ideas?

    I figured it out. I had to create a new location on both the Powerbook and G5 and click "Apply Now". Then the PB showed up as a server on the G5.

  • Windows 8 Printer over network offline -HP

    Hello
    I am using windows 8 in my office.I have installed HP Laserjet 1020 on one system and I have shared it.
    Now on another PC i have installed it as a network  shared printer.
    But the problem is it shows offline after reboot.Sometimes though it work but it shows offline in another machine not in local machine to which printer is attached.
    I have downloaded latest driver for my printer but still same issue

    Hi,
    Since this issue happened when you reboot the computer, I consider that the driver is not loaded propertly.
    I suggest we disable fast boot feature in Windows 8 to see what’s going on:

    Then let’s uncheck the power management on your network adapter:
    Open Network and Sharing Center.
    Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
    Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
    Click Configure .
    On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.
    If the issue still persists, please help to collect event log on the computer with shared printer and upload here for further research.

  • 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!

  • Can Printer over network but can't scan over network with Officejet 6500 E710n

    Got an odd problem... I can print all day via my wireless network, I can even ping my printer's IP with no issues.
    I can't scan at all, it keeps giving me connection related error messages (Scanner Unreachable, etc). I checked the "Update IP Address" tool and the IP address was correct. So I figured I would install on a different computer.
    I installed using the software from this website (I have never installed this HP printer on this computer, I always did eprinting from this computer), it worked perfectly, it found the printer almost instantly. Installation worked perfect with no issues, errors, etc.
    Printed the test page perfectly but I still can't scan over the network, I tried both clicking on "HP Officejet 6500 E710n-z" and clicking on both "Scan a document or photo" and "Activate Scan to Computer" and also I get a connection error if I try the "HP Scan" software.
    I ran the "HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility" but it can't find my printer (odd that it found it to install the software and I can print/ping it all day).
     I also ran the "HP Scan Diagnostic Utility 4.2" and it DID find the printer... It also got past the "Connectivity" and "Device Manager" steps and put a check next to them.
    It then failed on the "Windows (WIA) Scan" step. I skip it and it fails on the "HP Twian Scan" after giving me a connection related error message. It will not let me continue the test.
    I have restarted both computers and printer multiple times. I am running Windows 7 on my laptop and Windows XP on my desktop.

    I suggest uninstalling the full feature software from both PCs and re-installing and configuring the software on both.
    Are you using the HP Solution center to scan? It is in Dutch, but the images are the same as what you should see in a correctly installed full feature software package.
