Hp photosmart premium C309g-m - trouble with scanner

I scan the image but am not able to get it off of the 'scanner' window to the computer

Try scanning from your Mac. Use Image Capture app in your Applications folder.
Click once on the scanner on the left side, then click on Show Details along the bottom. Along the right side you will see LOTS of options for scanning and saving.

Hp photosmart premium C309g-m - trouble scanning

I have an hp photosmart Premium C309g-m - printer states scan saved but can't figure out how to print it

Hello NancyDonohue,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand when you scan a document to your computer, you would like a option to print. I will do my best to assist you! Please reference the Photosmart Premium C309G Manual here. The manual doesn't state you can perform this feature. It does states you can scan to, then reprint a photo.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Issues with McAfee IPS and HP PhotoSmart Premium C309g-m performing port scan

Trying to run a HP PhotoSmart Premium C309g-m printer wirelessly and connect to a laptop computer with Windows 7 32-bit operating system. Printer is available for about 3 and a half minutes and then is blocked by McAfee because the printer is trying to perform a UDP port scan. The IP address of the printer is blocked for 10 minutes and then becomes available again. After about 3 and a half minutes, the printer IP address is again blocked by McAfee IPS for 10 minutes and the cycle repeats again. Goes on all day. Difficult to get any work done. Anyone have a fix to stop the port scans? Thanks

Hello JWB46,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand when you scan a document, it takes longer and the background is black with horizontal white lines or a greenish background. I will do my best to assist you! First, I need to find out your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?
How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB?
Please make sure you have followed this entire HP document on Color or Brightness Level of Scanned Image is Not Correct. I would like to test out the hardware within your printer. Try copying a blank document on the scanner glass. Let me know if you have the same results. I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!

Hello
I have been experiencing a problem when I attempt to scan a Document or Photo on my HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. Specifically when I scan it now takes longer to do so and when finished I save it to my deskstop but the result after saving consists or either a totally black background with horizontal white lines or a greenish background. I have tried resetting back to ‘default’ properties but nothing changes and the result is the same. I have shut down the printer, and unplugged it for several minutes and restarted it..but still no luck
Anyone out there with an answer on how I can fix this?
Thanks

Printing problem with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

I'm running windows XP sp3 on all of my machines with this printer{HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m} wireless network.Recently everything starts to print one inch lower on the paper and cuts off the bottom of each document I try to print.I print mostly from microsoft word 2007,and I have checked all the settings in word.It is almost like the printer skips an invisible header then starts to print the document.Any ideas would be appreciated.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the DSL modem HW. There might be an issue with how print data is being routed though.
Please try the second experiment where you blank-out the default gateway and DNS entries from the printer's internal web configuration page. Open the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address. Select Networking and then Wireless (802.11). Under the IPv4 Configuration tab, select Manual IP:
For Manual IP Address, use the existing printer IP address.
For Manual Subnet Mask, use 255.255.255.0
For Manual Default Gateway, leave blank. This is important.
Select Manual DNS Server:
Leave both the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields empty. This is important.
Press Apply.
Turn off the DSL modem, the printer and all computers connected to your network. Wait 60 seconds then turn on the DSL modem and then turn on the printer. Then turn on the computers. See if this corrects the printing speed.

HP Photosmart premium c309g-m printer prints blank pages even with new cartridge

I have an HP Photosmart premium c309g-m printer and I tried to copy a black and a color document. The printer goes through the motions but the page is blank. I have tried put a new black cartridge in and still prints a blank page.

Thank you everyone who responded. I would like to let you know my printer is now up and working. It was so nice and helpful of you to respond with links and suggestions. I appreciate it.

Extremely slow wireless printing with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

I'm seeing extremely slow print speeds when printing wirelessly from a Mac or a Windows XP system to a new HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. The printer begins printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will then take about 15 minutes to print the rest of the page, printing each line after a very long pause. Demo page printing doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents from programs like Word 2008, Safari and Firefox (tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.
If I connect to the printer through a USB connection it prints fine, so this problem appears to be with wireless printing only.
Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
Computer: Mac mini (Late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop as a comparison, using latest drivers from HP's website)
OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
Computer connection method: Wired Ethernet connection to wireless router
Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple supplied, HP drivers never installed as system shipped with 10.6)
Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (Early 2009) 1TB, running in a/n and b/g modes on 2.4 and 5GHz. TimeCapsule is in bridging mode as the DSL modem handles DHCP service
Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hiding of the SSID.
IP addressing scheme: All addresses are handed out by DHCP server with no reservations of any kind
The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates full signal. Connection of the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went without a hitch. Only when printing a test document did we discover the problem. The wireless network is behaving as expected when accessing the Internet from both Mac and Windows devices (tested with a Dell laptop running XP and a MacBook running OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any overall problems with the wireless network.
Attempted remedies:
1. Rebooting and powering off, waiting, powering on computer
2. Resetting the print subsystem, turning the printer off and on again and reinstalling the printer
3. Unplugging power from the printer and letting it sit for several minutes before trying to print wirelessly.
None of these worked.
This question was solved.

HP Photosmart Premium c309g wireless network printing problem with 64bit Windows 7

A problem exists where the c309g is installed on a wireless network where one of the PCs on the network is running 64bit Windows 7. Amongst other things, the printer may print very slowly, appear disconnected or unavailable through the HP Solutions Centre and may not be pingable from any of the PCs on the network. The problem will affect ALL the PCs on the network !
Network monitoring software will also show an enormous level of network traffic between the printer and the Windows 7 PC. As soon as the Windows 7 PC is switched off, everything returns to normal.
The problem is solved by disabling the HP Network Devices Support Service on the Windows 7 PC as follows;
Run services.msc from the Run command on the Windows 7 PC. This will display the list of all the local services running on the PC together with Description, Status and Startup Type information for each.
Scroll down the list until you see the HP Network Devices Support Service.
Right click on it and select Properties to bring up the Properties window.
Use the dropdown list to Change the Startup Type to Disabled.
Once disabled, the printer will start to work normally. HP are aware of this problem which may be unique to the 64bit version of Windows 7.

Thanks but no luck... I tried it..... Got back from son's baseball game.. checked on printer - as in tried to have printer print something... nothing... prior to going out I went ahead and deleted the 6 c309 print devices and reinstalled a new one and got the printer to work... after the game it was back to ignoring print commands... When I go to printers there again are 6 print devices for this printer - one titled HP Photsmart Premium C309 g-m... then 4 copies of that and then one version titled HP0AC58C (HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m).
As I just finished writting that... the printer came alive and started printing some previous jobs... so maybe it helped - not sure but what about the 6 versions of print devices? I just checked the statuses of all the versions and the default is offline... the various copies have different amounts in que but have a pending status of pending deletion... When I tried to make one of the other copies the default printer - it errors out with 0x00000709

HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m will not connect wirelessly to laptop

Hi
I am having huge issues with my HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m. I have had it for just over a year, and have NEVER had any problems with it.
I am going to give as much information as I can.
I have:
HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer
Samsung ML-2010 Series (Working wirelessly)
Gateway (Acer) NV5915h laptop
Windows 7 Home Premium
64-bit Operating System
Intel(R) Pentium (R)CPU P6200 2.13GHz
4.00GB Ram
Norton 360 Premier Edition
Wireless Logitech Mouse
Wireless Microsoft keyboard
It started about 2 weeks ago
At first it would lose connection, and then I would have to reboot my laptop and the printer, and it would come back. Then I had to start removing the printer and then re-installing it. It worked for a bit, but now I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
I disabled my Norton while I did everything.
I tried adding the Photosmart through the install CD, Manually adding it, disabling the HP services, and I downloaded the setup from HP, in case there was something wrong with my CD. I have gone through the entire trouble-shooter.
I have run through the install CD over a dozen times, it finds the printer and goes all the way to the end, and it says “printer setup has failed to complete. Click retry to try installing again or click next to continue without connecting to the printer now, I will connect later."
I also went to
Start typed in cmd Services.msc located the HP Network Devices Support right click Properties changed start up type to Disabled. Then re-installed the printer. It didn’t work!
I uninstalled all the HP software, and then installed it again.
I even tried typing the IP address in.
If I open a webpage and type in the IP, it brings up my printer; it shows everything with no problems.
When I added it manually I tried to set it as my default printer and I get error0X00000709. It won’t let me set it as the default, so I tried leaving my other one as the default, and then selecting the HP Photosmart from the dropdown list, then print. Same thing happens I get the error.
I also installed through a wired (USB) connection, so that I could get all the driver updates. It updated everything, and I was able to print to it, but then when I went to switch to wireless, it errors.
I also installed it by:
Start Devices and printer add printer add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer.
It searches for my printer, it finds it. The problem is it finds 3 of the HP Photosmart!!
It shows them as follows:
HP0AB1A0 (HP Photosmart premium c309g-m)              IP http:\\192.168.1.70:3910
HP Photosmart on OWNER-PC                                             IP: \\OWNER-PC\ HP Photosmart
Samsung on OWNER-PC                                                        IP \\OWNER-PC\Samsung) (working)
Photosmart Premium C309g-m (HP)                                   IP 192.168.1.70.
I have gone through and installed them one by one, and deleting it when it didn’t work.
I have gone through the entire fix it problems on the HP website.
I can print to both of my printers through our desktop computer. I can print to my Samsung wirelessly from my Laptop; it’s just the HP that won’t print.
This is so frustrating! I used to work for HP, so I have gone through all the tricks I know.
Please help I really need to get this working. My email is [email protected], if you want to contact me directly. I might forget to come and check this.
Thank you in advance to anyone who has any ideas!

I am having the same problem with our hp 5514 printer.
IT SHOULD JUST WORK!!!!!
Why will hp not answer anybody here?
We have even changed printer from 5510 to 5514 and it will not work.
Please answer as this is very frustrating.

HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m connection decay problem

Hello,
I bought a HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m today and have it succesfuly connected to my wireless N network. My problem is that everytime I reboot the printer it's connect lasts for about 30 seconds and then gets intermitent and then stops responding all together. This is repeatable and happens every single time I reboot the printer. All other nodes on my network continue to work just fine so I do not think it is my router that is at fault or any of my computers that I can reproduce this problem from.
As you can guess this is really frustrating to have a printer that works wirelessly for 30 seconds and then just stops. The printer itself shows a very good wireless signal the whole time so I can't understand what the problem is. Any help would be appreciated as I rather like this printer and would rather not have to shop for something else.

The Linksys WRT600N is a simultaneous dual-band 802.11n wireless-router. There are a couple of things to try:
Please check that the channel width setting and for 2.4 GHz band is set for 20 MHz only (you can always use the 5 GHz band for 40 MHz clients).
Make sure that you're not running in 802.11n only mode (it's not well defined by the IEEE 802.11n standard).
If you still have trouble, open the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address. Select Networking, then Wireless (802.11), then Advanced. Scroll to the bottom of the page and check the setting for In an infrastructure network use 802.11b/g behavior. Press Apply.
If the printer doesn't stay connected long enough to make this change, you may have to use a LAN cable to temporarily connect the C309g to the WRT600N.
BTW -- how is DD-WRT working for you? We have a WRT600N in our test lab that I just decommissioned and I was considering reflashing it with one of the Open-WRT FW images.

My HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer frequently gives me false "low ink" readings

My HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer frequently gives me false "low ink" readings, which wouldn't be a big deal except that unlike other printers I've had, instead of just printing as best it can on low ink, it refuses to print at all.
I know the readings are false:
(a) because I've only recently refilled the ink - (since this started I write down when I refilled the ink and note the number of print jobs, which can be as low as 10 and the false readings can occur) and
(b) my only work around so far is to turn the printer off and on until the false readings stop, it then shows the correct ink levels and does print, but his can often take 5 or 6 times of "off and on." Very annoying.
Questions:
Has anyone else experienced this?
If so, is there a fix?
If no fix, is there a way to change the printer default configuration so it will print anyway -with low ink - instead of simply refusing to print?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you

Maybe there is some ink on the connections to the cartridges. This document may help with checking those areas after you installed new cartridges last time:

HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m on wireless for a wired PC

I have a Photosmart Premium C309g-m connected wirelessly to the LAN, as also are several other computers (both Windows and Mac). No problem here, all connect and print fine. I also have an older desktop (windows) connected to the access point wired. How do I get the desktop to print/scan on this device? It appears HP desktop software only gives me a option of having both the devices wired to the access point or both wireless. This is silly. This is a network printer and I should be able to simply connect to it at least with its IP.
What am I missing?

What is the model of your router? Some routers have settings that prevent communication between the wired and wireless devices. The network diagnostics here may help.
