Hp printer not hooking up

I have a new wireless hp photosmart 7520. I am unable to connect. In eprint setup, it wants a proxy address. Tried everything. Finally used ip address, now it wants a port. New at this, what do I put there?

Hi sconnelly,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that you are trying to enable the web services on your Photosmart 7520 and you are encountering an error prompting you for a proxy address, etc.
Please set a static ip address and manual DNS servers for the printer. I have another post with screen shots on how to do this. Please don’t' worry that the screen shots are for an Officejet Pro 8500. The steps are the same. Please note that when asked to click on 'IPv4' on the left-hand side menu you might have "Network Address (IP)" or "Network" on the left hand side menu.

Printer not printing completely

I purchased an HP2540 all in one printer yesterday, hooked it up to my Dell computer, running Windows Vista. I did the complete set up, downloaded software, registered the printer online, etc. Everything seemed to be okay until I tried to print the first document. The page did not print completely. At approximately every inch part of a line did not print correctly. The printed line looked faint and only partially printed. The document did this throughout. Any solutions?

Printer not responding message

My computer no longer works with my printer. I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.9.2 and a HP C 6280. Original problem started today when I tried to print, intial indication was normal but after a minute or so computer print info shows "printer not responding" message. Printer is plugged in, works as a copier and I printed a HP Network Configuration Page from the printer itself. I followed instructions on the forum and took the printer away System Preferences>Printers Scanners> Delete and when I tried to reinstall the printer it's not finding it. Looking online it seems the printer should appear as an option when I click the plus on Printer Scanners page I get an ADD screen but the printer isn't listed there either and I can't add it. IP address typed in Browser window doesn't find anything but I don't know how to fix that. I am using a Cable set up and the printer is hooked up via ethernet cable to the modem. This printer has worked fine till now I would certainly appreciate any help getting it back online. Thank You

Hi di757,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you can't get your printer back online with an Ethernet connection.
I would recommend to try and power off the Mac, turn off the printer, unplug the router for 30 seconds, plug the router back in, turn the printer back on, then turn the Mac back on. After that unplug the Ethernet cable from both ends and plug it back in.
Then I would try to follow this guide. OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
Hope this helps, and have a great day.

Hp 5535 will not scan, error message printer not found

I have a HP Envy 5535. I have only been able to scan one time with it. I scanned 22 documents, after running HP Scan Doc 4.4. Each time the HP Scan Doc states that everything is OK, yet as soon as I try to do even a test scan, I get the error message "Printer not found." I have also tried to run this scan with my McAfee virus firewall off, and it still doesn't work. I have also identified it on McAfee as part of my network.
This question was solved.

Hi @prazdancr,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I am sorry that you cannot scan with your HP Envy 5535, but I am happy to help!
For further assistance I will need to know:
If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is connected, Wireless, or USB.
If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
In the meantime, please try going through this scanning guide. A 'The computer is not responding' Error Message Displays During Scanning.
Hope to hear from you soon, and have a nice day!

HP diagnostic tool etc. turned every device off including router, modem, and rebooted. reset router to defaults. now for some reason printer not finding wireless router in NEW network name wheni run wireless wizard from printer. says no link on printer. on new comp says printer disconnected. diagnostic tool says incompatible with windows 7. have downloaded updates from HP as of december. wireless network test says fail under wireless working. all other comps in house can get on wireless internet. attempted to manually type in routers info... ip address etc... still says no link on printer. did the routerlogin.com for my netgear router thats 3 years old....for ip's etc...
i need to get the printer to find the wireless router!!!!!!

First, let's make sure the printer is OK. From the front of the printer: Setup > Network > Wireless Network Test. Does it pass all its tests?
Next, in the same Network menu, Reset Network Defaults.
Now, if all that goes well, from the same Network menu run Wireless Setup WIzard.

Installed a wireless canon Pixma MX432 printer back in November for use with my Mac Book Air. All was working normally until this past week when I began getting a message, "printer not connected." What is going on? Netgear Wireless N Router seems to be ok

My new canon Pixma MX432 printer is not printing. It was printing fine until about ten days ago. I use a Netgear Wireless N router, which is also new. What do I need to do. I get a message when trying to print that says "printer not connected." In addition, my old Gateway laptop will still print fine apparently because it has a cable connection to the printer. Puzzled!

Have you tried rebooting the router? I would unplug it, wait a few seconds, then plug it back in. Be sure you know the password etc. if that doesn't work, try unplugging and rebooting the printer. Good luck!

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. Any tips on how to do this?

I am trying to connect a Windows 7 / 64 bit to an Epson printer on my Mac. The printer is hooked into the Mac via USB; the Mac is networked to a Linksys wireless router with an ethernet cable, as is the Windows box. I installed the current Bonjour printer services software on the Windows machine, and separately installed the driver software for the Epson printer on the WIndows machine. Running the bonjour wizard, I get an alert saying 'I don't have sufficient access to my computer to connect to the selected printer'.
The printer has 'sharing' turned on from the Mac end; this works with a Powerbook via the wireless connection. Sharing is also turned on in the Windows printer control panel for this printer (under properties). The Mac is a G5 running 10.5.8. When I try to print a page from the Windows machine it gets hung in the print queue.
Any advice how to proceed would be appreciated!
thx,

When I try to print from web page I get "printer not activated - error code 30", but I can copy text into Word document & printer works.

I am unable to print anything from an internet web page. I continually get "printer not activated, error code- 30" followed by "An unknown error occurred while printing". I can copy the material from the web page, place into a Word document and then print. This just started yesterday and I have no idea why. Would appreciate your advice!

When I try to print from web page I get "printer not activated - error code 30", printer works on Internet Explorer

When I try to print from web page I get a dialogue box "Printer not activated - error code 30" followed by a dialogue box "An unknown error occurred while printing". The printer works on websites when I use Internet Explorer. Also, if I copy the web page and paste it into a Word document, I can print a copy. This issue just started this week; I have not encountered this problem prior to this week. Please advise.

What does that error message say?

I recently replaced my dead airport router with a netgear91-5g router and synced it successfully to my Lexmark Pro 915 printer and my computer and yet when I try to print wirelessly I get the message: "printer not connected; printer offline".

I recently replaced my dead airport router with a Netgear91-5g router and synced it successfully to my Lexmark Pro 915 printer and my computer; yet when I try to print wirelessly I get the message: "printer not connected; printer offline". Lexmark support verified that my printer was connected to the new router and the problem was with the computer's printer configuration and they could reconfigure it online if I paid for their "Premium Support" services ($119 for one year, 3 fixes). I declined, feeling sure that this is something I could do if I knew how. Could it be an incompatability issue with OS 10.8.3?

You saved me $$$ that I can ill afford on my fixed income. I was very unhappy with the "support" from Lexmark... what a rip off! Thank you dwb!

Printer not printing AND Matching Screen colors to Print colors. Any advice is apreciated!!

Hello - I have 2 questions regarding printing to an Epson and also regarding the monitor colors Not matching the print colors working from Photoshop CS4 on a Mac with a Maverick [ 10.9.3 ] OS. My issues are Not about my own printers or software. I have been tutoring a friend via phone in Photoshop; he has CS4 and is working on Mac OS 10.9.3.
1- We found that he could print nearly fine [ nearly accurate colors ] from Lightroom on his computer, version 5.4. But when he tries to print from Photoshop he cannot make a print. There is clear communication between the computer and the printer, as, when he sent the file to print, the printer [ an Epson 3880 ] responded by automatically changing to Photo Black from Matte. Then, it opens the rollers as if to print, but, it them stops and the menu [ on the Printer ] says 'Ready.' The paper is 4x6” Moab Lasal paper 300gsm. This issue of Not printing is only with this Moab Lasal luster paper, for which he Does have the IIC profile, and we always make sure ‘Photoshop manages colors,’ not the printer. To address the issue of the printer Not printing at all using a non-Epson brand paper, we have tried seemingly everything from deleting and re-adding the printer from the Library / Printers, resetting everything [ printer computer software etc ], trying different settings in the Printer window and the Print Settings window. Including changing the media profile, platen gap, etc.
2- My other and more important question is – after we Do get a print, we cannot match the monitor color to the print. [ We havE been able to get a print using Epson brand paper. Which is odd because we have the ICC profiles for both papers ]. To address the color matching issue, he has told me he calibrated the monitor with a Spyder, and here are a few other variables that I can relay that may or may not be affecting his color-issues:
He iS viewing his prints in a dayliglht-rated lighting environment
The monitor is an iMac glossy finish monitor, not an anti-glare
We tried working and printing from both an 8-bit and also a 16-bit color-space and also 16-bit printing
The color shift is slightly but noticeably toward Magenta.
His printer is Not calibrated
Please let me know what else we can do, any known glitches that may be an issue with his older version of CS, any tips you can suggest.
Thanks very much!

I don't have that printer and I'm not on Mac, so someone else has to step in there. Generally a green/magenta cast indicates none/double printer color management. But then I don't know what you mean by "slight".
The Spyders aren't the most consistent and reliable calibrators out there. I had a Spyder 3 sensor that I just threw away because it gave a distinct red cast (I have several other calibrators, so there was no doubt). Another potential problem is that with most calibrators you can only adjust the white point along the blue/yellow Kelvin scale, but not on the green/magenta scale. This is often necessary to get a good white point color. In this case you need to use the monitor's OSD controls, and if possible the "pre-calibration" function in the calibrator to measure and monitor it - if that function exists. And I don't know if this is possible with an iMac.
This is basically a question of getting the white point right, both on the blue/yellow and the green/magenta axis (and luminance of course). The goal is to get a visual match to paper white on screen. With the white point properly set, neutral color balance relates to that, and the rest more or less follows by itself. (In addition you should set the proper black point/contrast for full control, but that's not the issue here).

Printing notes only?

I have a presentation in Keynotes 09 which is finished but I am trying to print the notes on the various slides. I only seem to be able to print them with the slides and then they get reduced down to an unreadable font size.
In (dare I say it) powerpoint you used to be able to select file > send to> Word> and print notes only but I can't seem to be able to do it with Keynotes can anyone help please.
No point in saying send it to powerpoint as it does not work either as I have used the bits in 09 to make it ....
Thanks
Nick

According to the 4th level deep in Microsoft Office Support. The only way to print just the notes pages is to select each page or series of pages that you want to print (in a single print action) and print it, skipping the slides with not notes. You can't even print a few pages of just the notes, where they could print a few lines for every slide identifying the slide number. and if there was no note, leave it blank, and if there was a note, put it in.
It's no wonder I only use Microsoft when I have to. Does anyone know if Keynote would have given me this option?

Printing notes in Tiger

The last "I can't print notes from iCal, just headers, which is stupid" post mentioned that they were running Panther. Has there been any fix for Tiger, so that I can print the notes?

the only solution i have found is to change font size to times 12 and be aware of how i lay things out, eg unnecessary returns etc, that take up real estate
it is a shortfall of the program. i sent them a feedback suggestion.....but no one listens to me
