HP P1102w - won't stay on, firmware keeps rebooting ?

Just picked up a new HP P1102w to finally replace my old trusty HP Laserjet 4p.
Unpacked printer, installed via USB on Windows XP, and printed test pages, and config/status pages.
Next, setup the WiFi config, and again printed test pages, and config/status pages.
However - the printer seems very flakey now - just sitting there...
The power/trouble lights alternating on/off, then all off -
then green on, and blue blinking, and then on solid.... until they all go off again - in 15 secs.
The printer is just sitting there -
repeating this firmware reboot,  WiFi discovery, connect,  - then all off again - firmware reboot -
Formatter - W4378e5
Firmware - 20130213
IO timeout = 120 secs
Jam recov = off
Sleep = 15 mins.
Auto Off = never

Hi ps56k,
I see that the printer keeps doing a firmware reboot.
I will be happy to help you.
Disconnect the USB cable if it is still connected.
I would do a power reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
With the printer still turned on, disconnect the power cable from the back of the printer.
Then disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet.
Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cable back to the wall outlet first, then the back of the printer and power it on again.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
Try holding down the (X) Cancel button and the Power button at the same time. 
Turn the printer on again to see if that will make a difference.
There is a newer firmware version: 2013-07-26 , Version20130703, 5.13M. But with the printer in this error state it probably won't update at this time. HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer Drivers.
Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.
Restore the defaults on the printer by turning the printer off, hold down the x and wireless button.
Turn the printer back on and when the printer stops making noise release the two buttons.
See if that will take it out of initialization.
Here is a document on blinking lights.

Please let me know the results.

  • Mail app won't stay open and keeps crashing

    I use iPhone 7.1. Every time I open my Mail app, it crashes. I don't know why.
    I have maybe 700,000 unread emails, fourteen different email accounts (8 Gmails, 2 iClouds, 2 Gmx's, and 2 AOLs, all of which are linked together through my Mail app), over 16,000 photos, and 0 bytes of free space left on my phone.
    I've had my phone since 23 May 2013.
    I bought it off Amazon for $161.
    How can I get my Mail app to work again? Whenever I open the Mail app, it stays open for about 60 seconds, then a black screen appears, and the Mail app crashes.

    Hi don290022,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's Mail application becoming unresponsive, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • Mac won't stay on; fan keeps speeding up; then it goes to sleep every 3 min

    What the heck is going on; its got a new logic board; its an older G5 PPC mac; and it keeps "going to sleep" on me; every 3 minutes.... is this the start of a hardware failure? In fact it even died on me during an OS installation....
    Imac G5 PPC running 10.5 (trying to upgrade to 10.5.2)
    Message was edited by: raspberryaddiction

    It's unlikely that an OS upgrade will solve things, your problem is most probably a hardware, thermally related one. If the machine works for a little while after an overnight rest, the chances are very high that its heat related, and that in turn means hardware failure somewhere along the line. Ultimately, you will have to take it in and have it checked out. Depending on the model, you might qualify for one of Apple's Repair extension programs, however, they expire three years after the purchase date of the computer...

    I've seen one report of that happening for a person because EyeTV was set to open iTunes when an export was finished.
    Could you have some application set to start iTunes after a task is completed?

    Very annoying!

  • Curve 8520 - white screen, phone won't stay on after constant rebooting

    My phone has been playing up for absolutely months because quite frankly I just don't think a Blackberry will ever NOT be faulty.
    But basically the past week or so, the screen has been going white after some phone calls, in the middle of doing something on the phone or even when the battery reaches a certain point (usually when it has maybe about 2 and a half bars left).
    Usually the screen would go black after this and if I put it on charge, it would reboot and the battery would be on red as if the phone had just died because of low battery. 
    But tonight has put me at my wit's end because AGAIN it gave me the white screen in the middle of a phone call, so I took out the battery and put it back in, it took 15 minutes to reboot, stayed on for about 30 seconds then turned off again. Then rebooted itself. And did the same. And this is a continuous cycle because it is rebooting itself for about the 12th time tonight. It won't let me do anything and it is absolutely infuriating. I have never been so angry at an inanimate object in my life.
    Any ideas? I have a warranty so I can just get Orange to send me a replacement but it's so much hassle losing contacts and BBM contacts and such so I want to avoid having to replace it as much as possible.

     For the last few days, right when I'm in the middle of something, the whole screen will go white and all buttons become unresponsive.  My first thought was to do a battery pull which led me to the normal startup screen with the loading bar, however when the loading bar gets to around halfway, the phone powers off again.  Won't switch on using the power button and battery pull just starts the same cycle again.
    The first couple of times it happened, my battery had been quite low and I thought the power needed to boot up had just zapped what little power was left in the battery but last night my phone was on almost full charge and the same thing happened.  The only way I can get the phone to then go on is if I plug it into my mains charger.
    Hello emmer
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    From what you described , my assumption is the problem is within your battery or the battery is too weak ! before going for a new battery I suggest if you can barrow or arrange a good fully charged BlackBerry battery then test it on your device. The test will reveal and let you know if the problem is within your battery or the device itself. If device works well well within a good battery then you can simply order a new battery which will fix your issue .
    If problem remains then it's a device issue and for that you can try a OS reload which might fix this problem .

  • Blackberry Bold 9700 won't turn on and keeps rebooting!

    My blackberry is loading, but doesn't work. I continue loading to the halpf of bar, then start loading again, and again start. But It never turn on or isn't opened screen. There has only a loading screen. How can I solve this problem?
    I tried to remove battery and again place it and I tried to connect with software in computer, But It isn't connect, and I can not back up my files, or reload my blackberry

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
    KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
    It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
    If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
    But if the behavior continues in Safe Mode, then you may need to consider more drastic actions -- WIPE, OS Reload, BBSAK Wipe/Reload, and the "Bare Bones" OS Reload Process. To prepare, you should be sure that you have a full backup to your PC...please review the Backup link in my auto-sig on this post for instructions.

  • New monitor profile won't stay selected

    I've been using Snow Leopard for 2 years (Mac Mini) and had two different monitors in that time. I just got an Asus VE228 monitor and it was really bright and washed out. So I made a setting that looks good but it won't stay selected after a reboot.
    When opening the System Preferences and going to the Display section, it switches to the right profile the moment I click on the Color tab. I have to do this every time I reboot.
    Repairing permissions did not fix it. I tried making a new user and it does the same thing with that user. I tried a system reinstall and it didn't help.
    I tried a different mac mini with mountain lion and it works fine with this monitor.
    Can anybody help me get my monitor setting to stick?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Ok I have a new plan to do this.
    It would work if Spry didn't keep overwriting my colours.
    I have spry:odd and spry:even set on this table. I have also now removed spry:select
    When someone clicks on something I make a note of the rowID and store that globally. I also set the clicked row to have the correct color and have added an id to all the rows which includes their rowID so I can easily do a document.getElementByID to find the row that should be selected.
    Now I have added an onPostLoad to the notification which finds the correct row by the id I have set and then sets the color. If I put in an alert directly after I can see that this has worked.
    The problem is that spry then overwrites the background colour with the spry:odd and spry:even colours.
    So... what I need to know now, is how I can do something to the row directly after spry has finished setting colours.

  • My mac wont turn on and keep rebooting

    can please anybody help me?
    my mac suddenly won't turn on and keep rebooting half way then turn gray green and shut down
    i dont know what to do

    I suspect the HD is failing.
    If you reboot holding the option key, I would expect it shows your Macintosh HD as a bootable option.
    You can try running Disk Utility from the Recovery and Repair Disk to see if it shows any problems, but this is probably not the cause.

  • Anyone know of a fix after updating the last ios...ipad keeps restarting or won't stay on.  Very aggravating.

    Anyone know of a fix after updating the last ios...ipad keeps restarting or won't stay on.  Very aggravating.

    Have you tried resetting your iPad? I don't have a lot of confidence that it will work for you, but it's an easy thing to try and a good place to start.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't help, you should probably restore the iOS software. You may even need to use recover mode. Both are covered in this in article.

    HI:
    It does not sound like a battery problem.
    Try a couple of things:
    1.          Reset the SMC
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    2.          Reset (if you can) the PRAM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    If that does not help, delete the mouse in system preferences, turn it off, restart, and turn the mouse back on.

    P.S.  I only needed it once, but I have an old USB mouse in case my Bluetooth one decides to quit.

  • Wi-fi won't stay on keeps asking for apple id

    Hi all - since updating to I0S6 my wi-fi won't stay connected and it keeps asking me for my apple ID which I put in but it keeps coming up with wrong!!!! Please help

    If you have more then one Apple ID you may need to log out on everything and start over. Be careful, using more then one ID can really get you into trouble if you don't keep track of them.
    The only other things are these. You could be typing it in wrong. (I do this all the time.) Slow down with the fingers, and make sure the screen is clean. Or, your internet connection is messing up causing it to lose connection before it logs on.
    I had a friend that tried to type her password in, and she kept typing it wrong. She finally got it right three days later she told me.

    Hey my iPod won't stay on a game im playing or apps I open and sarfi keeps

    Try closing all apps via the taskbar and then see if they then stay open : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    For Safari you could also try clearing its cache, cookies and history via Settings > Safari
    If that doesn't work then you could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
