HP PSC 2210 all in one printer - slow printing

I have had this all in one printer for several years.  Just recently I attempted to print two pages from a PDF file and it took over 1 hour to print.  At first I thought it was the PDF but now I realize it is with anything I try to print.  I went through all the troubleshooting steps and none of them have fixed the problem.
I have a Dell Dimension 8400 Intel Pentium Computer,  Windows XP 4 cpu 3.20 GHz, 3.19 GHz, 1.00 GB of Ram.
It will begin to print but then it will take at least an hour to print 1 page.  I have already uninstalled, re-installed, etc...
This question was solved.

This is likely caused by the failure of one of your cartridges.  Remove the black cartridge and print a test page.  Does the printer print at normal speed?  Is so the black cartridge was the issue and should be replaced.  If not then put the black cartridge back in and remove the color cartridge and print test page.  If the printer now prints normal speed the color cartridge was at fault and needs to be replaced.

  • HP TouchSmart 600 and HP psc 2210 all-in-one printer

    Hi SiobhanF,
    I just registered and this is my first post.
    I recently bought a new PC...an HP TouchSmart 600.  My printer is a HP psc 2210 all-in-one.  I need advice on whether the two are compatible and if so how to get them working together.
    Thank you,

  • After the latest update printing off the web has moved from readable to font size 6. How to I get back to font size 10 or 12? hp psc 2210 all-in-one?

    When I print coupons or e-mail from my hp psc 2210 all-in-one the font has changed to 6 where before it was size 10 or 12. I have made no changes in my printer settings nor any other changes that I am aware of. This happened after the latest update of Firefox.

    I have a carriage jam on my HP Officejet 5510 which I cannot correct.. I have tried everything I know to do. There are two black pieces that will not spring down when the cartridges travel across. I th en get a carriage jam message.
    Do these pieces need lubricated?
    How can I get t hem to go down when the carriage goes across?
    Thanks for any information or help options

  • Psc 2210 all-in-one.

    I have an old workhorse, a psc 2210 all-in-one. Can I easily turn the color off and on? Anybody know?   Thanks.

    Does the printhead take a swath and then delay 10-15 seconds before the next swath?  Does the delay also happen when you make a copy?  If so likely one of the cartridges has failed.  Try removing the color cartridge and printing (not copying) a page.  Does the page print at normal speed?  If so the color cartridge is at fault and should be replaced.  If not then remove the black cartridge, put the color cartridge back in and try printing a page.  If the printing now completes in approximately normal time then the black cartridge was at fault and should be replaced.  
    If the failed cartridge is an original (not refilled or reman) HP and not empty you can check the warranty information as shown here.

  • 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.

  • HP psc 2210 all in one printer hung up

    My HP PSC 2210 is stuck with an internal software hang up. It thinks it is printing a job, but there is no job, it also (correctly) wants to align the cartridges, but when I press enter to do this is says it is busy printing.
    (I have cleared any print jobs from the computer print queue).
    It will not copy or anything either , because it is trying to align the cartridges. any attempt to print test pages etc similarly fails, whether from the computer, or direct from the printer.
    I need to reset the internal memory of the HP PSC 2210 in some way.
    I have tried powering up with # and 6 held down, this effected some sort of reset, I had to choose the language again.... but I cannot get rid of the phantom print job.
    I cannot even switch the wretched thing off with the power button any more ?!
    any advice greatly appreciated

  • HP PSC 1410 All-In-One no longer prints

    I have an HP 1410 all in one. I also recently updated to Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. My printer no longer prints. It will show up in the print queue and the status will say printing but nothing will happen. After a few seconds it claims the printer is ready to print and stops any jobs in the queue. I have tried resetting the printer, tested all the connections, power cycled it both with the power switch and power cable, restarted my computer multiple times, I've tried updating the drivers (but I'll try again here in a minute), and I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions?

    Am (attempting) to print direct from my MacBook - admittedly I did not install any printer drivers during the Leopard (clean) install and am a bit confused as to whether I'm now using the right one, but from what I can gather from the threads like this now littering this forum it wouldn't have made much of a difference. I had infact presumed my problem was just that - that I hadn't the right driver.
    Like I hinted at previous; I can reconnect the HP to my old G4 running Tiger and print with no trouble whatsoever.
    Trying to print from Leopard brings up the print dialog, and subsequent utility as it should but then nothing - as if the MacBook's not talking with the HP (though it happily recognises it as being there and what model it is etc.).
    I have not yet attempted to print over the network, mainly because I couldn't succeed as is. Or tried to scan as it happens (I hardly ever use the built in scanner as I have a better one and the PSC is my backup - I scan a lot in my job).

  • PSC 1350 all-in-one not completing print jobs wirelessly with windows 7 64 bit

    I have a acer 5542 running windows 7 (64bit), connected wirelessly to an Orange Livebox hub, to which my HP PSC 1350 printer is connected (via USB cable) therefore using the Livebox as a USB printer server. This configuration has worked very well for my 2 XP laptops for the past year or two. I set up the printer on the windows 7 laptop by connecting it directly, via the USB cable, letting windows install it, and download the latest drivers, (although HP say they have no specific 64bit drivers for this printer, but the drivers they have, and that windows downloaded, work fine!) then i changed the port to the livebox ip address.
    All this worked fine (as on the xp machines), I printed out a spreadsheet, which worked fine untill it approached the end of the page, then just stopped. I troubleshot the printer which didnt return any sprcifics, Just that the print job had failed, and that it had rectified the problem, then the printer starts reprinting the same document, to the same point, (about 95% complete) and again stalls, and so the cycle continues. I have tried it with various different documents and photos, to the same ends. But if i connect the laptop directly to the printer, via USB, it completes the jobs fine
    I have posted on microsoft answers forums, but the one answer i have recieved (re installing everything) did not solve the problem. Although i am not too savvy on computers, i kind of get the feeling it is a spooling issue. (not processing or holding onto the last part of a print file! But its only a feeling!)
    any help would be very much appreciated

    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!!

  • PSC 1510 All in One won't print black

    Had printer for couple of years. Suddenly has decided doesn't want to print black. Tried everything. Have noticed other HP models on forum have same problem. One tag mentioned taking colour cartridge out and then it prints in black. Tried this but printer goes into fault mode as soon as I take colour cartridge out.
    Any other ideas?

    OK, if there is some black after manually cleaning the nozzles then the problem is the cartridges, not the printer.  I would suggest running up to 3 cleaning cycles from the front panel.  If this does not fix the problem then likely you need a new HP cartridge.

  • Hp psc 1110 all-in-one printer-co​pier-scann​er

    Recently I've been experiencing a problem with my printer (hp psc 1110 all in one):  it will print fine, then suddenly it will not print even though the print job is listed in the que.  If you turn the printer on and off, it will then "flash" in the system tray, but still won't print.  I've tried restarting the print job, deleting the print job, etc. but nothing will make it print except to restart the computer.  Then it repeats again where it will print a job or two then stop.  I've checked connections, and unloading and reloading the drivers, but none of that helps.  This is a great little printer -- I'm thinking it may have to do with the computer?  It is connectly locally to a stationary, but we can also print wireless from several laptops.  Has previously been working great, until just recently. 
    Hope there is an easy fix.

  • Can I share HP PSC 1610 All-In-One series printer through Bonjour?

    I have an iBook G4, and a Mac Mini (10.4.11- Tiger) with a HP PSC 1610 All In One series printer connected to it by USB. On my iBook G4, the printer comes up under Shared Printers in the Printer Setup Utility but when I click on it, and press Show Info it freezes.. so I was wondering, is there a way to connect to the printer wirelessly with the correct driver (because the driver doesn't show up in the driver list... and the driver is installed.)

  • Can't scan from brand-new HP PSC 1600 all-in-one printer/scanner/copier

    Just installed this new all-in-one, and the printer and copier work perfectly. But when I try to scan, it won't do anything. Error message says to configure a "scan destination." But the menu to do so, on the desktop, won't open at all. Just stalls and stalls. Everything else seems to work fine, so no connection problems. Anybody know how to shake this menu loose?
    iMac G3, iBook G3   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I've been using the HP psc 1210v for about a year now, and I've always been able to print, but scanning (which I do very infrequently) has always been a problem. Typically, to use the scanner, I have to remove the printer and re-install with the latest drivers from HP's (currently 7.7.2).
    So, after doing this again, I was able to scan a couple of images by using the "HP Device Manager". I just double-click on "Scan Picture", which opens the "HP Scan" application, and I can choose from there how to scan; either opening in another Application or Save to File.
    I'm using 10.4.6, but I know I originally scanned some images using this printer in 10.3.9. Hopefully this will continue to work!
