HP P1006 firmware download error

P1006 suddenly stopped working for no reason.
Error just said firmware download error. I hadn't asked for any drivers or downloads.
HP print and scan doctor recommended removing the drivers and reinstalling the most recent one.
So I have done this but the problem still persists.
The documents just sit in the virtual printing tray and no printing happens.
I have scanned my pc for viruses and ludicrously the only detection is the Malsign.Generic.97C which is part of the driver for this product!!
Any suggestions welcome as to how to get this printer working again as it has been brilliant. If it was working last week I don't see why some software glitch should stop it working now.
Many thanks

Hello @MarieCurie ,
Welcome to the HP forum.
I understand you got an error message from your printer, and now it is no longer printing.
I could not find an NVM reset for this unit. I could only find a hard reset.
This is just a different way to say:
While the printer is turned on unplug the power cord.
Wait thirty seconds
Plug the power cord for the printer directly to a wall outlet.
If this does not help, I would call technical support. There will be a support fee, but if they can't get the unit working, then it is refunded.
I recommend this because the firmware is the programing inside the laserjet.
They may be able to provide the NVM reset that I can not locate.
Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html

P1006 "Firmware Download Error" for non-administrator accounts

Hello all,
I have a problem with a HP LaserJet P1006 when printing from a user account that does not have administrator rights on a new Windows Vista 64-bit machine.
The error message reads: "Firmware Download Error. The printer was unable to communicate with your computer. Please power cycle the printer, check the connection, and try again."
On the original machine, this problem could only be fixed by unplugging and reconnecting the USB cable. On another identical machine, it still prints, but the error message still occurs.
Everything works great when logged in as administrator. Also, there is no error message for the common user when bidirectional support is disabled, but then the printing is horedously slow and ties up the system.
Anyone else see this error message or have any clues what to look for?

Hi! I don't know how it's described in english, but I will try to tell a solution that worked for me. I just changed the security definitions of Windows for this printer. I'm from Brazil and I really don't know how it's show in english version of Brazil, but I'll try to explain: First of all, you need to log in as Administrator in the domain where the printer is installed. So, go to Start -> Configurations -> Printers and Fax Devices (shown "Impressoras e aparelhos de Fax" for me) Select the printer device that is reporting the firmware download error and open it. Go to the Printer menu (Impressora) and Properties (Propriedades). Select Security in the top of window. Ok, all you have to do is modify the Permissions for the users who have this problem. Allow they all to print and manage documents. This proceedement worked for me, and I hope works fine for everyone too. See you, bye. AtÃ© mais, tchau!

P1505 Firmware Download Error

I have recently begun purchasing P1505 printers to replace our 1018 and 1020 units which are having problems printing PDF documents.
I now have two printers producing the same exact result. Both computers are running Windows Vista Business x64. Both units, produce the error, "Firmward Download Error" in a big dialog box that freaks out my users. This error pops up when the user attempts to print. The print job is always successful, but the error shows up and they are required to close the box. At first I thought this was a problem with just one of the units since it appeared there first, but now that I'm having it on both units, I'm a little upset.
What information do I need to supply in order to expedite the resolution of this problem?
Thanks!

Maybe this will help?

Here is the message my IPhone 4 is stating, "Error no successful firmware download after 60000 ms!! Giving up..."ITunes will not even recognize it, any ideas?

No, it has something to do with the firmware on the phone itself. The phone won't do anything. I have used redsn0w to try and put the firmware back on, no luck though. The farthest I am able to go is DFU mode. The message on the screen says, "Error no successful firmware download after 60000 ms!! Giving up..."

HT1725 I have downloads that have a download error, and won't download. How do I delete them

How do I delete podcasts and movies that won't download due to download error?

AHA, you have Firmware password protection in Mac OS X , disable it & try Option/alt...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.

Ready 2 download error on Laserjet pro 200 color m251n printer

I tried using the firmware downloaded from hp site but gives "Fatal erro 7 while erasing.
Please somebody help me. It's very urgent.

Hi Seun1965,
I see you are getting an "error 2 download" message and can not complete the firmware update. Please complete the steps in the following document; A 'Firmware Corrupt Ready 2 Download' Error Message Displays on the Control Panel.
If the issue persists, I recommend calling HP and letting the know the issue as well as the steps you have already completed. It may be helpful to even let them know you completed all of the steps in HP document #c03109721.
If you are in Canada or US call 800 474 6836, or you can Contact HP Worldwide.
HP printers generally have a 1 year warranty from their purchase date, you can verify the warranty using the following link if you would like; warranty check. Even if the printer is out of warranty I suggest still calling HP to see if there is something they can do to help.
I hope this helps.

I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry.

I purchased tv shows from iTunes and keep getting a download error tap to retry. Why don't the shows download? What can I do?

Hello there Julfos,
I recommend this part of the article named iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725.
If you cannot complete the download on your device, you can finish the download in iTunes on your computer and then sync it to your device. For instructions, see the following articles:
iTunes Store: Where can I download and sync my purchases?
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
Additional Information
If your purchase does not resume downloading after following the steps in this article, you can also try the following steps to troubleshoot the download issue.
Restart your computer or device.
Check for updates for your Mac or PC and install any software updates. Also, check for and install updates for any security software you may have (anti-virus, anti-malware, firewall, and so on).
If using Wi-Fi for Internet access, try using a different Wi-Fi network when downloading. If you are connecting to a home network, try restarting your Wi-Fi router. Also, check for and install any firmware updates for your Wi-Fi router. (Refer the manufacturer's website for your router to get information on updating its firmware).
If that does not resolve the issue then I recommend quitting all the apps running with this article, and trying again.
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Perhaps even forgetting your home network and rejoining it.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap > and Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
Or resetting your network settings.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings including: previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords, recently used Bluetooth accessories, VPN and APN settings.

NSS6000 "Firmware Update Error: The firmware image file is corrupt."

Hello All,
I've recently run into a problem trying to update the firmware on our NSS6000 to either 1.20.1 or 1.21.0. We are currently running 1.16-3.
Each time after I click "Upgrade Firmware", the upgrade fails with the same error: "Firmware Update Error: The firmware image file is corrupt. Obtain another copy of the file and try the firmware upgrade again".
I've tried re-downloading the NSS6000_FW_1.20.1.tar.gz and NSS6000_FW_1.21.0.tar.gz several times from multiple PCs, and using multiple browsers. I've tried several combinations of Windows Server 2003R2, Windows Server 2008R2, Windows 7, and Firefox, Chrome, and IE 8/9.
The downloads all appear to be fine, and they all can open/extract with 7-zip without issue. The file sizes are always the same.
No combination of OS/Browser yields a different result on the upgrade attempt either.
I tried renaming NSS6000_FW_1.21.0.tar.gz to NSS6000_fwupgrade_0121.tar.gz to match the convention used in early versions (thinking that the extra "."'s could be the issue) but no luck either.
I was able to successfully re-apply the NSS6000_fwupgrade_0116.tar.gz firmware without any issues at all.
A strange thing I noticed, though, was on the "The system will reboot now. Please close your browser." window, it shows the device as an "NSS2000 2-Bay Gigabit Network Storage System" (please see attached screenshot). I'm chalking that up to a simple reusing-the-same-web-code issue rather than the root of the problem, but thought I should mention that as well.
Has anyone else run into this issue, or have any suggestions for workarounds in order to successfully upgrade the FW on this device? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi,
Not sure what is going on i haven't see the issue you are having, can you try downloading both images at a different location; instead of behind your router. Also upgrade to .20 and then .21. Im pasting the release notes upgrades step.
When upgrading the firmware from v1.12 to v1.14, v1.12 to v1.20.1, or v1.12 to
v1.21.0 the Configuration GUI displays a "Programming images.." message
for more than 12 minutes (the time it takes to upgrade the firmware is
usually 5 to 10 minutes).
The workaround is to wait at least 15 minutes to complete the upgrade and
then power cycle the NSS by removing the power cord. Do not try and
access the Configuration GUI during this time. (CSCsx17923) When upgrading the firmware from v1.12 to v1.14, v1.12 to v1.20.1, or v1.12 to

Getting firmware update error. disk write error message

i installed the lastest ipod shuffle update and when I try to restore ipod shuffle I get the error message "firmware update error. disk write error" have no idea what to do. ipod does not show up in itunes

ok, someone else with similiar problem, I just opened the box 5 days ago, installed iTunes (the June 2005 version) that came on CD with it, ran iTunes, downloaded some music, plugged in Shuffle, goto download, fails, no device found, can see it under XP ok, goto apple.com to find support FAQ, I then ran up Ipod Updater, thinking that since it was new, firmware must be recent (little did I know ) so I thought do the Restore straight off, it started, then failed with the "disk write error" and havent been able to talk with iPod Updater since, then tried installing iPodUpdater to another PC, no luck, then downloaded later versions of iTunes and uPdater, installed on a 3rd PC, same deal, unable to communicate to Shuffle, rang phone support, spoken to two different support people, finally they agree its faulty (something I figured out 4 days ago) and suggest I return it to Apple for replacement, and fill out a Service Request form, which opened a can of new worms, like there is no "Warranty Replacement" option, lots of questions like Credit Card details and nowhere to actually define that I have a "faulty" or "dead" or Shuffle to return and they obviously did not read the comments, that were requested, as they simply sent docking station in the mail, so now back to square one, trying to lodge a Service Request to "replace" a brand new, dead shuffle. Not having a nice iPod experience here !!, but Itunes is good, although expecting it will take a couple weeks all up before I get a working Shuffle to actually download to. Tried again phone support, to sort out this mess, waited in queue, then line goes dead. Oh Well ... I blame my daughter for this heartache, she insisted on having an iPod.

Guide download error.

Hi,
This is my first message. So Hello to all.
I'm not able to download the guides on Nokia Maps. Either if I use the 3G connection or a wireless connection I get downloading and after some seconds "download error"
I had the same problem with Maps v1 and now with the v2 beta. The mobile phone I'm using is a Nokia N95 8GB.
Is someone else having this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Most likely computer Anti-Virus and or computer Fire-Wall is interferring with the download of the Firmware. Turn them OFF, so your computer can download the Firmware.

BB 9790 firmware download problem via Desktop software

Hi , i am using desktop software to download firmware 7.1 for BB 9790 and i always have a problem of the firmware download bombing out at around 95 percent of the total download, and the error says my i must check my internet but there is nothing wrong with my internet.
i have loaded the latest Desktop software but still get the same error, Help!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
You can bypass the Desktop Software automated download by, outside of the Desktop Software, first downloading, from the official download portal, the OS package you desire:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/apps-and-software/desktop-and-device-download-sites.html
Then, install that package to your PC. (If the package is from other than your carrier, you will need to delete the VENDOR.XML files.) Now run the Desktop Software and it should offer you this specific BB OS update.
Good luck!

Firmware Failure Error & Run chkdsk Utility

Hi We have 2 ipod nanos and we kinda have the same 2 problems with each.....We go into itunes make a play list, the ipod is connected, and it tries to update a pop up box appears and tells us there is an error and to write the chkdsk utility. Then to try and fix this we are supposed to download the latest update but can't do that either because when we click on restore an error box pops up saying firmware disk error - how can this be fixed as we have 2 ipods unable to be used. We are using Windows XP & have broadband connection (if that is of use) We have read replies to this problem before but we can't fix it...

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I think are lost as to the structure of how Apple Discussions works.
Go back to where it says Discussions, and pick up:
Windows Compatible Technology's section, iPod, and post there.
This is the Mac OS X Mail & Address Book forum.
Someone here may still be able to answer your question, but it is usually best if you post in a section where people are known to have the same setup as the one you are having an issue with.

Nazeer

@lalit_205
If you have a valid warranty you could go to a Lenovo service center to update the phone or flash/install (at own risk) the latest S062 update.
If you decide to flash the latest firmware->
Download and unpack the latest S062 firmware and follow the installation instructions from Message 2(refers to a different model but the driver and flashing procedure is similar.The S660 battery is removable....You do need to remove the battery to install the vcom/sp driver.Also the firmware installation is done with the battery removed in the S660 case).
I suggest to select ''Firmware Upgrade'' instead of ''Download Only''(DO NOT SELECT ''Format All + Download).
Alternative instructions link.
Hope this helps.

Download error in (osx) adobe desktop app (corrupted download link).

Here is a discription of the problem. Please consider that some of the wording might not be correct, as I do have to translate the error message from German into English.
Using OSX 10.9.2, when clicking inside the adobe desktop app (top of the screen bar) on the tap "apps", the following screen (screenshot) appears, which states, translated from top to bottom:
download error
download error. Please contact support.
(link) contact support
(link/button) download creative cloud -> This button unfortunatly leads to the following error page "http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html"
All apps, like Bridge, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. are installed and work just fine. So no problem here. I seem however unable to redownload the desktop app (in order to reinstall). As stated above the provided link inside the desktop app itself is coruppted and within the (online) web-based download centre (user logged in) I am only adviced to use the desktop app. This is a dead end and I do not know what to make of this error, let alone solving it. Please help!

I am sorry Romsinha but this doesn't really help.
I already restarted the desktop app and while I am obviously online and connected the problem (error message) remains the same. Information within the "home" tap is recieved/loaded (little blue spinning wheel) stating that various apps recently have been updated. Yet the same loading wheel within the "apps" tap results in an error. My best guess is that some internal link within the app is corrupted, leading to a source on a server that can not be reached.
UPDATE
I clean uninstalled adobe creative cloud as discribed in the article you provided (using the cleaner tool) and even uninstalled the browser plugin. After downloading and reinstalling creative cloud the problem however remains the same. "Apps" tap still shows the same problem. "Home" tap now displays the following:

"Download Error" - Can't download/install any programs.

I downloaded CC on my Win 8.1 machine (after a windows crash and upgrade to 8.1). Previously it was working fine (on Win 8). Now the CC desktop app connects to my account but the Apps tab has a red exclamation error and when you click the tab it says "Download Error." and to "Please contact customer support." (See below:)
Apparently this seems to be a prevalent issue as I see multiple threads and support requests with this same error.
I got on Chat and followed all the troubleshooting advice, uninstalled, reinstalled, used the Removal tool, deleted folders from the AppData locations, everything. Finally was getting ready to do something else and the Adobe server disconnected my chat session.
I know it is not MY internet connection because everything else is up and running fine, including streaming radio progams and other chat programs.
I tried visiting something on Adobe's siteand received the following error:
So what is going on Adobe? I need to get my programs back so I can get back to work.
Edited to add - After another hour of being on chat support I got disconnected again. Same error: "Sorry, we're having technical difficulties."

So after four hours and dozens of troubleshooting issues, I figured out what was wrong. I am on a fixed-wireless system at home. I have used this same system and network setup in the past for CC. My average DL speeds are 2.0 Mbps. Not super fast but it has worked in the past. On the 3rd or 4th chat session I was told that you can't use wireless with CC and I need to be on a fixed wired connection. Finding that as rediculous as possible, I decided to test my network. I logged off and used my AT&T CELL PHONE as a hotspot (which gets me about 4.0 Mbps download speeds, albeit with a higher ping) and VIOLA the Apps tab is there and I can download programs.
