I have an HP C6280 all in one. Can I leave my printer on all the time so it is ready to go?

Everytime that I am done using my printer I turn it off.  In a nearby business place they have many printers and I was told that they never turn them off, even when the employees go home for the night.  [Same with PC's]  When my printer is turned on it goes through a preperation mode which renders it unusable for several minutes.  Not a really big deal, but I wondered...Does it hurt to leave printers on 24-7 just like PC's?  Thanks, Joe

HI,
You should be able to just leave it on, it should have a sleep mode which it will enter after a while.

  • I have a HP 3055 all in one attached to a wireless print server. I got in working on one laptop Win7

    I have a HPa  3055 all in one attached to a wireless print server that works with one Dell laptop that I upgraded from XP. But I can't get a New Toshiba Win7 to work wireless, but only with cable.

    Do you have a wireless router?  How is the print server configured with that?
    On the Win7 machine, download and run this utility: http://h20180.www2.hp.com/apps/Nav?h_pagetype=s-926&h_lang=en&h_client=s-h-e17-1&h_keyword=dg-NDU&ju...

  • HP8500A all-in-one can no longer scan thru wireless network but prints fine.

    HP8500A all-in-one can no longer scan thru wireless network but prints fine. Have used this device several times over past 2 years on different wireless networks (at home) but usually at some point I lose wireless scan function but maintain wireless Printing.  I used to be able to reload the software and resolve the issue but now in this "new network" cannot get wireless scanning to work.   Setup software; original software (CD) and current download as well as "Print/Scan Dr"  hangs-up at "network check"  for hours.  Compaq laptop, Dell Laptop, Cell phones and Roku work fine thru network.  Scanner works fine with USB to Laptops.

    Which model Epsons are they?
    I'm assuming you're using Yosemite (OS X 10.10), and that the problem developed when you upgraded from a previous OS.
    (Your profile says 10.6.7 BTW).
    Maybe the scanning function is not compatible with Yosemite.
    You could try a few things:
    reset your wifi system:
    power down everything: modem, router, computer, printer/scanners.
    wait a minute.
    power them all up again, in that order: modem, router, computer, printers. Let each power up completely before going on to the next.
    try a factor reset on your printer/scanner (if there is such a function). You'll have to check your manual for how. If you do that you'll have to enter the wifi password in your printer/scanner, assuming you have security on your network.
    uninstall any printer manufacturer "utilities" that are on your Mac, and try Image Capture again.
    If it is a compatible software issue, you could try VueScan, but I've never needed to use it.

  • All in one laser black and white printer

    I currently have a Canon IM MF4150 and it prints and faxes fine but I cannot get it to scan with my Mas OSX v 10.6.
    1. Can anyone help&
    2. What similar laser b7w all in one can you recommend that will scan as well as print and fax.
    Thanks

    The MF41xx series did not support scanning to Mac OS X. Later models, such as the MF43xx and MF45xx series, do support scanning to Mac OS X via USB using Canon's MF ScanGear application.

    how to print to my wireless all in one  photosmart prem c410 when printer is not powered on?

    Hi,
    You cant print to a printer that you physicly turned off. Most network printer have a sleep mode, so leave it on and after a while it should go into a sleepmode. And should wake up when a printjob is being sent.

  • I have a new mac computer but i can sync my iPhone because clean all my application, what can i do???

    i have a new mac computer but i can sync my iPhone because clean all my application, what can i do???

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

    David.  Thank you very much.   The problem was not with the canvas but rather the Viewer.  But the solution was the same.  Somehow, the Viewer window was re-set to Alpha.  I changed it back to RGB.... and the picture is back.   These issues are often very simple.... but they can drive you bats if you don't know the answer.   Very grateful.  Tim

  • Does the hp deskjet f380 all-in-one can work on a mac os x 10.7.5 ?

    does the hp deskjet F380 all-in-one can work on a mac os x 10.7.5 ? I bought my all-in-one F380 in october 2007 and I would like to use it on my new computer Mac OS X 10.7.5 bougt in december 2011. The DVD from 2007 seems to be unavailable now on my computer. Can you provide me a new way th install the F380 ? Thanks in advance,

     Update:I use mac OS 10.10, but i scrolled down in the driver download menu and selected mac OS 10.6. There I downloadedHP Deskjet PSC and office jet full feature software and drivers v 10.3. This gave me access to full feature software including utility, customer partcipation and scanner software. HP printer software V. 3.1 then automatically downloaded when i clicked apple update in the application store. Interestingly however this is not the version mentioned in the software I use though. Post download, the version of the printer driver mentioned for Deskjet F380 is v2.05 and the version for the utility software is 5.24.2 valid till 2015. Now both my HP Deskjet F380 and  HP PSC 1310 all-in-one PRINT Thanks HP! ISSUES: HOWEVER neither can SCAN! while the F380 shows a scanning error, the PSC 1310 doesn't even pop up as a selectable device to scan with! PLEASE FIX THIS HP! FAST!!     

  • My HP7280 all in one can't find my wireless router

    My HP Photosmart C7280 all in one can't find my wireless router even after I enter my WEP key and ESSID. My other computer is wired into the printer and it works but not wireless. Can anyone help me?

    Is the other computer wired with USB?  if so that is fine.  If it is wired with Ethernet, that is the source of the wireless problem.
    What router?  Oh, and don't use WEP, it is not in the least secure.  I recommend changing your router settings to WPA, create your own password and then try to connect the printer.

  • My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from Internet Explorer (v8.0).

    My All-In-One 6500A Plus won't print any color from IE (v8.0).  I can print all colors from Word, PDF documents, photos, etc. - but not from ANY web page.  At first it only printed Magenta ink, now it acts as if it's printing (feeds the paper, moves the print heads across the page and sounds like it's printing) but the paper comes out blank every time.  If I change the print options to print grayscale and only use black ink, I can get a black only image of the web site.
    As I said, ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS PRINT FINE.  ONLY WEB PAGES WON'T PRINT, so please don't tell me it's the ink cartridges.  ;-)  

    Fourteen views and no answers in two-and-a-half days!! 
    I guess it's time for me to change printer brands.  It will be a long time before I get an HP anything again!

  • I'm waiting for my new iPhone 5s to be delivered. I lost my iPhone 5 but did have it backed up on my MacBook Pro. I was using iOS6 at the time. Will I have a problem restoring the data to my new iPhone 5s assuming it will come with iOS7?

    No, you should not.  There are problems trying to go the other way, but updating a newer iOS release from a backup of an older iOS release has always been supported and is the basic means of setting up a new device from a previous one.

    Remember security on a TC is an illusion.
    Simply press the reset button for 1-2 sec.. you must not do too long .. it will then hard reset.. but soft reset will revert all passwords to default for 5min. ie TC password is now public.
    Remember this the next time because anybody at all can change your passwords.
    Once into the TC you can then open the view passwords if you wanted any weaker security. Click and open the TC.. and click on edit.. then go to the top menu..
    Voila .. all your passwords in plain sight to any Tom Dick and Fred.
