I have an HP Laserjet 2430tn Experiencing Ghosting issues

I'm experiencing ghosting when ever i print from our above mentioned printer. I have tried blowing nad cleaning it out, all with no success. the ghosting is taking place about 1/2 way down the page from the original and where it should be. Any and all ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I'm wondering if it may need the maintenance kit for the device. The printer has around 60,000 prints through it, not sure if this will help.

Hi @DWD2444594 , I see by your post that you are no longer able to scan as a PDF after updating to Windows 7.
I can help you.
I checked the drivers online for Windows 7.
They are HP LaserJet Hostbased Print/Scan Plug and Play Drivers. No additional software.
The Plug and Play Bundle provides EZInstall to assist with installation for direct USB connections and offers basic print and scan for all-in-one and multifunction devices.
The Windows scanning software doesn't have the feature for PDF scans.
You would have to use a Third Party Software for scanning by PDF.
I would just go to www.google.com and search for free scanning software for PDF in Windows 7.
There should be a lot of different ones available.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

  • I have like five GB's of ghost data (data the device claims is not there but it is still taking up space) on my I pad 2 from a failed movie download attempt. How do I fix that with out resting my iPad? I have only 1GB left of storage

    I have like five GB's of ghost data (data the device claims is not there but it is still taking up space) on my I pad 2 from a failed movie download attempt. How do I fix that with out resting my iPad? I have only 1GB left of storage
    The movie had gotten to the point that I could watch it all the way through but it still said processing and got stuck at that point and when I turned off the wifi to try to restart it, it deleted its-self but did not free up any of the storage It was taking up
    Restarting my iPad does not help
    Some thing similar also happened to my old laptop when trying to download the iOS 5 update to my laptop when it came out. It kept getting disconnected and every time it would try to start over and act like what had already been downloaded was not there though it was still taking up the storage space.
    And it continued repeating until it took up all of my storage space. The data file would not show up anywhere so I had to restore my laptop to the factory settings and that worked for awhile but I eventually had to get a new laptop.

    Did you try to set it up as new device, as explained in this article?
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If this does not work, use iTunes to set it back to factory settings, which would also install the latest software:

  • I have an HP LaserJet 8150N that I am trying to get connected via ethernet cable directly to my iMac. I always had this printer connected via a network so I don't know if I am able to connect directly with a cable since it is a network printer.

    I have an HP LaserJet 8150N that I use for my work and I have had this printer for ever and it is one heck of a work horse! I am trying to get it connected via ethernet cable directly to my iMac. I always had this printer connected via a network so I don't know if I am able to connect directly with a cable since it is a network printer. I have tried to reconfigure the printer using the JetDirect menu giving it a new IP address but still no luck. If anyone could help me through this issue I would appreciate it.

    Second, seeing "connecting" and connection failed is normal. You must click on "Connect As" in the Finder window and then enter the username and password for the admin account on the other computer. That should fix things.
    Thanks for responding.
    When does clicking on "Connect As" happen in the process above?
    After step six? Seven?
    After the connection has failed?
    Is this the FInder window that shows the icon of the computer you want to copy the file from?
    You should see "Connect As" in the Finder near the top right of the window as shown below:

  • How do I connect a network printer to ipad 3. I have a HP LaserJet P2035n.  It is a network printer. Not Wireless.

    How do I connect a network printer to ipad 3. I have a wireless router on my LAN.  I have a HP LaserJet P2035n which is a network printer and it is connected to the LAN.  The printer is not on the AirPrint list. The printer is not wireless.

    Hello,
    I am using a Mac with this router. Any ideas how I can set it up to print wireless. Im not a tech person so this gets confusing for me sometimes. 
    Thanks!

  • I have an HP Laserjet 5m monochrome printer that I have used for years with our three Mac computers

    HP Laserjet 5m monochrome printer C3917A (1997)
    Operating system: OSX 10.7.4
    Error message: Printer busy
    No known changes made to system or configuration
    I have an HP Laserjet 5m monochrome printer that I have used for years with our three Mac computers (two on OS X Lion and one on  Leopard). I'm using ethernet to connect to a router and then my computer (although I have also tried to connect directly to no avail.) We went away for 2 weeks, returned and got “Printer busy” for all 3 computers. I reset the printer to factory settings. Same problem. By the way, the printer says READY. I then went to System prefs and clicked ‘–‘ in the Print & Scan section to remove the printer. When I tried to add back the printer, nothing shows up. I now remember that this may be because the means of communicating with the printer has now changed and that I had found the printer by somehow adding its address settings (or something). Can anyone help me to reconnect with the printer? 
    This question was solved.

    Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Reset the printing system:
    - Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.

  • Windows 7 printing dark to HP LaserJet 2430tn

    Our office has a HP LaserJet 2430tn, networked with multiple computers printing to it. One of those computers was recently replaced with a Windows 7 machine. Since then, documents printed by the Windows 7 machine are coming out much darker than the other computers. I can't seem to find the option to adjust on Windows 7 to correct that.
    All the other computers print with no change, and everything looks normal. It's only the Windows 7 machine, and it works, just prints a little dark, and makes parts of our invoices hard to read.

    Located a solution:
    Go to Control Panel - Printers ---  right click the printer and select Printer Properties.
    Select the PORTS tab and disable Bi-Directional Printer Support.    Seems to work whether the printer is installed either via USB or Cat5 to the Airport Extreme network.
    For HP printers, if that first fix doesn't work, download and install the HP Install Network Printer Wizard  - allow it to replace your 'newer' driver, but check hp.com for step by step instructions.
    Third suggested fix is to download a PCL6 driver, or a different model-driver altogether that is more generic than model specific.

    I have a HP Laserjet M1120 but I don´t know how to scan. Can you help me?

    Your Model apparently needs to use Apple's "Print & Scan" which is found in Applications>System Preferences>"Print & Scan".  There you will follow the following instructions from the HP Support site to Scan, for instance:
    Place the item that you want to scan on the scanner glass, or load it into the automatic document feeder (ADF) if your printer has one.
    Click the Apple menu (# ), and then click System Preferences .
    Click Print & Scan (# ).
    Click your printer in the left pane.
    Click Scan , and then click Open Scanner .
    Click Show Details . The details of the scan display, including options to change scan settings.Figure 4: Example of the Show Details scanning screen#
    Change any scan settings as necessary, and then click Scan .NOTE: Make sure to select either the Flatbed mode or the Document Feedermode, depending on your printer and how you plan to scan.
    Hope this helps

  • Do new Retina Macbook Pro's still have ghosting issues.

    If I buy a 13.3 inch Macbook Pro Retina today will it have a ghosting issue, or has it been resolved?

    These are user-to-user forums where everyday folk post "technical" questions and offer answers to each other voluntarily.  No one here works for Apple nor does Apple get involved in responding.
    The only way we would know if Apple has "fixes" is if they have publicly announced it on their website and Knowledge Base articles.

  • Is anyone else experiencing password issues?  Every few weeks I have to reset mine and I'm writing them down!

    Is anyone else experiencing password issues?  Every few weeks I have to reset mine and I'm writing them down!

    If you are receiving repeated password reset e-mails, there are two possibilities.
    One is that they are simply phishing e-mails. Do not click on any links in those e-mails, and do not respond to them in any way.
    The other is that someone is trying to hack your Apple ID. You can prevent that by enabling two-factor authentication:
    Apple introduces two-factor authentication
    This will prevent anyone from even attempting a password reset without entering a special code that only you will have, and should keep in a very safe place.

    Hello Steven.
    There have been similar reports, yes. You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
