Hp psc 1210

hp psc 1210 has started printing soooooo slooooow i'm ready to throw it out the window ...more than one minute to print a page
It is connected to my iMac OS 10.6.8 and has worked fine until a couple of weeks ago.  I've tried several suggestions on a help site;  1. unplug printer from power surge unit and plug into wall outlet. 2.  Unplug USB cable from printer and computer, wait a while and plug back in.  3. cartridges are hp product  4.  Disconnected USB cable from computer, unplugged power cord from wall, waited 30 seconds+, reconnected both (used differect USB outlet), plugged into wall outlet.  Still sloooow

  • PSC 1210 Mac OS 10.6 Scan multiple pages into one pdf., and ink levels

    Now that I upgraded my Mac OS to Snow Leopard (10.6.8), I have needed to scan on my HP all-in-one psc 1210 either from Preview or from Scan & Fax in System Preferences. Once I scan a page and that page opens up, I AM able to scan additional pages, but each becomes a separate document. The only system driver available from HP is print only and also doesn't include a utility to check ink levels. Can someone help me with these two issues? (1) how to scan multiple pages into a single pdf. doc with my configuration, and (2) how can I check ink levels
    This question was solved.

    Hi C_Maier,
    I can not see the available options when it is disconnected. A screenshot when it is connected would be best. I have done some research though, and believe the option to select 'save all pages to a single file' may only be available if your printer has a document feeder, and of course as you know, yours does not
    I know with 10.7 and higher the option is there even with flat bed only printers. You might consider upgrading the OS.

  • HP PSC 1210 - Scanner Not Working

    Dear All,
    I am using HP PSC 1210 Printer. And the scanner function suddenly stopped working after I've upgraded my Mac ver to V10.9.4.
    I've contacted Apple Support for help and they advised to contact HP for the latest driver. 
    Can someone help me with this? Thank you.

    Hello @ksl123,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're unable to scan a document using the PSC 1210. I will do my best to assist you! There isn't a full feature software available for your printer. Please follow this HP document on OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
    You can only install a basic print driver by using the Apple update. All this information is in the HP document I provided above. Since you're unable to scan a document, there are three workarounds you can try to achieve scanning from this document. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Have a great day!

  • Installing software for my HP psc 1210 all-in-one printer on to my Mac?

    I have downloaded new software and drivers for my all-in-one printer. I am running OS X 10.5.2 on a 20" 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. The computer recognises that a printer is present and I can print with no problems. The problem that I'm having is with the scanner function. I don't think that the HP software is registering that there is a printer present. When I go into the HP setup assistant no printer comes up in the selection window. When I go into Printer & Fax via system preferences the HP psc 1210 series comes up as the default printer. I've had this problems before but cannot remember how I rectified it. I'm sure it got something to do with erasing the driver's off the computer and starting over again. Can anyone please help me or point me in the right direction. Thanks

  • HP psc 1210 all-in-one printer and Mac OS 10.9 (Mavericks)

    I just installed the new OS X (Mavericks) on my mac yesterday, and now my printer, an old but reliable HP psc 1210 all-in-one, will not install.  I was previously running OS 10.6 (Snow Leopord) and had no problems with the printer.  Is there anything I can do to install my printer on the new OS?  My computer doesn't even recognize that there is a printer connected via USB when I try to install it... is there anything I can do?

  • How do I configure my AirPort Extreme to allow printing from my Macbook to an HP PSC 1210?

    I currently have an AirPort Extreme [model A1354] connected by cable to an iMac [3.2 GHz i3 / 10.6.7]. I have an HP PSC 1210 series "All-in-one" printer attached to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. Printing from the iMac works just fine.  However, I cannot print from my Macbook [ 2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo / 10.5.8]. While the printer shows up when I go to "Add a printer", I still cannot print to the printer.  When I hit print, the print window closes, but nothing prints.

    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with AirPort base stations. In addition, the  AirPort's USB port does not support the "advanced" printer functions, like scanning, copying or faxing, of multi-function printers.  
    To see if your printer is compatible, take a look at this iFelix Unofficial AirPort Printer Compatibility link. If your printer isn't listed, it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, but simply that it has not been verified. iFelix also provides the following workaround for printers not on the list that would certainly be worth a try. 
    Also you can try this Apple Tech Support article to see if it will help: Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Base Stations and Time Capsule 
    Finally, check out this IBM support article to see if your printer is listed as having a Postscript or PCL3 interface. If it does, then it will most likely work with the AirPort's USB port. Printers that use the "HP LIDIL" interface must be connected to a computer directly and will not work.

  • HP PSC 1210 All-in-One Printer -- need Software (scanner directory), for windows 7 (64) bit

    hi,

Please help me to find software for this (scanner document) I have lost the CD lont time back can i download This some where?

    Hi there,
    I understand you're looking for drivers for your PSC 1210 on Windows 7. I will certainly do my best to guide you in this issue.
    At this time there are no HP drivers available for this printer for Windows 7. You can still use the printer with Windows 7, you will just have to use the drivers available within Windows 7. That document will walk you through what you need to do in order to get printing again, and will also show you how to scan with this Windows driver.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • HP psc 1210 all in one printer - Printing photos with Green Hue

    Hey folks,
    it used to work fine, now for no apparent reason, it is printing out photos with a strong green hue. They all come out looking very green and yellow.
    I have done several things - i have downloaded and updated all printer software and drivers, i have ran all printer calibrations and cleaning programs, i have accessed Macbook utilities folder and ran all colorsync utility's such as repair and adjust hue. What is going on here? I am completely stumped with this one.
    Thanks,
    Steve.

    Hi,
    What application you are scanning from? is it Paint or Windows fax and scan?

  • HP PSC 1210 all-in-one pen failure issue

    I have an hp psc 1210 all-in-one printer and recently replaced both print cartridges.  Then, when I went to print it said that i had a pen failure.  I then discovered online that this could be because of dirty cartridge contacts, so I cleaned them as instructed.  After allowing them time to dry, I returned them to the printer and plugged it back in.  However, now the printer will not turn on at all.  What is wrong with my printer?

  • My HP psc 1210 all-in-one, suddenly stopped printing any text. it will print the graphics.

    I believe I have tried everything. The HP psc 1210 series all-in-one refusses to print text. nor will it scan or copy. I have done all the troubeshooting that I can find. Still will not print from PC or copy. I think it will scan to the computer. Icon with gray circle around it, states it is offline, yet from the control panel, printer and faxes, shows it as being online and ready. What else can I do to remedy this problem? Thank you in advance.

    There may be 2 separate issues here.
    -For the offline portion, check this document out:
    Printer is offline
    -For just printing graphics, this would make me think that the Black cartridge is empty/low on ink/malfunctioning. Try printing a black and white picture. That would let you know if it is the cartridge or not.

    Will Vista 64 drivers work for PSC 1210 on WIndows 7 64 bit?

    The PSC 1210 drivers are available from Windows Update, see here.  You can go to the Printers folder, Add Printer, Local Printer, LPT1:, Windows Update.  It will take a few minutes to load the updated set of drivers.  When the updated list appears cancel the installation, then connect the USB for the PSC 1210 and it should automatically install.
    If you do not have a high speed internet connection the Windows Update process may be prohibitively slow.  In this case you can use the Microsoft Catalog Site to select just the drivers you need.  Unfortunately it can be difficult to find the specific drivers as there is no apparent way to search for the x64 drivers automatically, you will need to click on the titles and read the description to see what architecture the particular driver supports.  The Microsoft Catalog site requires IE, it does not work with other browsers.

  • HP PSC 1210 OUT OF PAPER MESSAGE

    My HP PSC 1210 printer will copy documents with no problem. However, when I try to print a file it does not go ahead. The printer setup indicates it is "out of paper", although the paper is there, and as I tell you, it will easily print copies. It also prints test pages normally, when  pressing Cancel and Start Color buttons.
    This printer has been working fine for years. The problem with printing files is one week old. I have already tried disconecting the printer from power for a minute with no solutions. Also changeid its connection to other USB plugs in my laptop. Opened the try from behind. Everything seems clean and fine.

    Hi WALTER-GOMEZ,

  • PSC 1210 page feed before and after printing

    My PSC 1210 has been working fine for years but it has just recently started feeding a blank page before and after printing. That wouldn't be a problem except that the blank pages are not fully ejected, this means that I have to grab the first blank page, as it comes through the printer, and pull it out, otherwise it gets drawn back in causing a paper jam when the actual print job starts. Once this blank page has been removed the print job continues perfectly.
    This occurs when printing documents, copying using the scanner, and printing a test page.
    I have removed and reinstalled the printer driver/software and performed a partial reset on the printer, neither fixed the problem.

    I see you mention that the issue also happens when you are copying, that means that this issue is not related to your printer software. So that's good to know!
    Now, since this is not a software issue, this must then be related to your hardware. Is this printer plugged into a wall outlet directly or is it plugged into a surge protector? To be sure that the printer gets all the power it needs make sure that it is plugged directly into a wall outlet.
    First things first, I would recommend unplugging the printer for about 30 seconds from both the back of the unit and from the wall outlet, and then plugging it back in. Try making a copy or print and see if the issue persists.
    You can also try cleaning the paper feed rollers in the printer, here is a document that can show you where all of those are located and how to clean them.
