Laerjet 1022 + Express = error -9672 +frustration

Hi,
Whenever I try to add my Laserjet 1022 w/ Bonjour I get error -9672. I've tried everything I can think of--installed new drivers, deleted Printer Setup utility preferences, repaired permissions. Nothing works. Any ideas?
It worked flawlessly the last time it was set up in May, so I've no idea why it has decided to stop working.
Powerbook G4 1.67 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

I finally figured this one out, so I thought I'd post it in case it happens to someone else.
The Laserjet 1022 doesn't like WEP encryption. I reset my Express to the default settings, and was able to add the printer via Bonjour, and I could print just fine. Then, I added my settings, including 40-bit WEP encryption. Printing still worked! Also works on my roommate's PC. (A side note, I could never get 128-bit WEP to work on the PC––I could add the network, but could never print or surf the net.)
So, to get the 1022 working with encryption:
1. Add the 1022 FIRST, making sure you can print.
2. Set your encryption.
3. Print securely.

  • Airport Express error 9672 on ip2200 printer

    Hi folks,
    Can't seem to get the ip2200 connected by USB to my Airport Express. I keep getting the error 9672 message, and I have tried following the manual, done an update on the Canon drivers, checked all the details on AE Admin, and they all seem hunky dory. When I go to connect the printer on Bonjour, this message keeps coming up. Can anyone assist me please.
    Cheers

  • Getting an Error:-9672  when trying to add printer through airport express

    Hi everyone, I have a canon colour laser printer (LBP5000) works fine when I pop the usb straight in to the mac, but when I try setting it up by plugging the usb into my airport express I get an Error:-9672 this happens when setting up the printer in print & fax system prefs.
    I have another printer set up on a different airport express, which works fine.... could this be a problem?
    Any help would be great
    Thanks
    Lee

    Hello Lee,
    When you select the LBP5000 in the Printer Borwser > Default Browser view, the Print Using menu should automatically set. If it isn't, and you are having to manually set the printer, then that will be a likely cause for the error (which usually occurs when the wrong driver is selected).
    Try turning off the Airport Express and the printer. After a few seconds turn the printer on first and after it finishes making it's warm up sounds, turn on the Express. Now try to add the printer via the Default Browser view.
    If that doesn't help, check your Airport Express firmware version. Some previous postees have found that their problems are resolved by updating their firmware on their Airport Extreme/Express.
    Regards,
    Paul

  • Error -9672 when adding an Epson 4800 via Airport Express & Bonjour

    I cannot add my Epson 4800 via Printer Setup Utility connected via USB through an Airport Extreme. Windows PC's via Bonjour have no problem but my Mac is just not connecting. It correctly sees it via the add printer dialog and even recognizes it as a 4800 but when I go to add it I get the Error -9672.
    Any ideas?

    What is the printer make & model that you are connecting to the USB port of the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)?
    You may want to double-check this iFelix site to see if it's compatible with the AEBSn.

    Printer appears in printer setup utility but always gives Error: -9672 and then the driver hardly works - jobs are not sent, stopped, stuck in cue, etc.
    Hours on the phone with HP after many manual uninstalls and reinstalls yielded the answer that it is an "Apple problem". An hour on the phone with Apple yielded the answer it is an "HP problem".

  • Dreaded error -9672

    have set up home network using Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) with eMac and MacBook (Intel), both running OSX 10.4.11 and 2 printers: HP Laserjet 1022 and Canon Pixma iP4500, both connected via the USB slot on the AE. Able to print from both printers via MacBook, and Airport Utility shows both printers are connected via AEBS. Problem printing from eMac: although both printers are found in the Printer List (when using Printer Browser) whenever try to add them get the dreaded -9672 error. What needs to be done to resolve this? (am aware there is a long-standing problem resulting in these -9672 errors)

    See the following for possible solution:
    HP DeskJet: 5150, 5650, 5850 -- Driver not installed or Error -9672 in Mac OS 10.3 when trying to add the printer under USB to the Printer Setup Utility.
    Macintosh OS 10.3 was shipped with the DeskJet v2.3.1 driver. The installation CD's for the 5000 series DeskJet printers listed above unfortunately have an older driver release then the one HP has worked with Apple to include in OS 10.3.
    These steps will delete the necessary files to be able to install the 2.3.1 or greater software package to you operating system.
    Resolution:
    Deleting the Current driver (drivers) and preferences:

    Note: There is no need to empty the trash after this step.
    2. Close all windows that are open at this time and reopen the Macintosh Hard Drive.
    • Open the Users folder on the Macintosh Hard Drive.
    • Open your user file in the Users folder. The one with the little house beside it.
    • In the Little House there should be another Library folder. Open this folder.
    • Open the Preferences folder that is located in this Library folder.
    • In the Preferences folder locate all the files that start with com.apple.print. and drag them into the trash.
    WARNING: This will delete all your printing preferences for all printers.
    3. Close down all the windows that you have open.
    Download the current driver:
    4. Connect to the internet and go to www.hp.com.

    • Delete any existing 5000 series DeskJet printers that may have been added automatically by the Operating System. Click on the name of the printer and click the Delete button in between the Add button and the Utility button at the top of the current window.
    • Add the printer to the Printer Setup Utility by clicking the Add button at the top of the current window.
    • Select USB from the drop down box at the top of window. NOTE: For the 5850 you will want to select rendezvous or hp IP printing if it is connected through one of it's network connections.

  • Hp3420 + AirPort Bonjour = Error -9672, (on 10.4.8)

    Hi all.
    I have a hp deskjet 3420 printer connected to AirPort Express,
    which was working fine on my G4 Mac mini a few month ago
    (I think it had OSX 10.4.5 around that time)
    I bought a new intel iMac expecting it to work just like it did, but for some reason it now gives "Error: -9672" when I click "Add" button from printer utility.
    The printer itself is detected fine in the broweser, and
    driver is automatically detected as "HP inkjet 3.3."
    Annoyingly the same now happens on G4 mini too!
    I haven't used the printer in a while but it has to do with something in the OSX update?
    The printer still works from my wife's iBook G4 (10.4.6) and Windows XP, on real PC and on Parallels Virtual PC on my intel iMac! so I know it's not a hardware issue.
    Does anybody have similar experiences?
    It works fine if plugged to the iMac directly on USB,
    as it should since it's supported by Tiger out of the box

    Do you have any software that might be causing this?
    I just realised that I have Adobe Creative Suite2 with the Adobe Acrobat 7.0 installed on both machines (iMac & Mac mini G4), but not on my wife's iBook (the one that's still working fine).
    My friend's new MacBook also failed last night. Not sure what software was installed on it.
    Why isn't Apple making list of error codes available?
    That "-9672" must mean something for troubleshooting, yet only info I could find was this article which is hardly helpful.

  • Error 9672 when adding wireless HP printer

    I am trying to add a HP 1315 printer for wireless printing through a Airport Express. I am using a MacBook Pro. Each time I attempt to add the printer, I receive a "error -9672". I am using the most uptdate HP driver downloaded from the HP site. The computer prints without problem when connected with the USB cable. Thoughts?

  • Error -9672 when adding printer

    I've looked on the posts, guys, and I can't find something that will help. I had a Brother MFC-201C on my Airport before, but I disconnected it and used it directly through USB. I have just tried reconnecting it to the Airport, and it is identified as a rendevous printer, but when I try to add it I get the "error -9672" problem. Any ideas how I go about getting this printer added? I've updated all the firmware of Airport.

    Try this first:
    1. Unplug AirPort Express, and turn off the printer.
    2. Disconnect the USB cable from the AirPort Express.
    3. Plug in AirPort Express, and turn on the printer.
    4. After AirPort Express finishes starting up, reconnect the USB cable from the printer.
    If that fails, read Printer troubleshooting for AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express

  • Error -9672 While Adding Printer

    I have connected an HP Deskjet Printer to my Airport Express. When I go into my Printer Utility to Add this printer, I am able to see it and select it. The location is correct and everything seems fine until I click on the Add button. This is when I get the following message:
    An Error occurred while trying to add the selected printer.
    Error -9672
    I have tried everything and can't seem to get this to work. Any ideas anyone?

    That is a common error, did you download & install the latest hp drivers, generally the ones that come on the CD are out of date!?
    Might try these two after reinstalling the latest driver and repairing Permissions with a reboot afterwards...

  • My HP Deskjet D2330 shows up but says "Error:-9672"

    My printer shows up in the Printer Setup Utility connected via Bonjour, but when you click add printer, there is an error and the details are Error:-9672. Does anybody know whats going on with my crummy HP printer?

    Having used Macs since 1988, this issue of noncompatibility with USB printers over AX is the most baffling and frustrating PC-like experience I've ever had.
    Why Apple can't release a firmware update that would allow broad compatibility with most new printers is simply thoughtless. I brought home a new HP Deskjet F340 printer today, could see it in Bonjour but got error 9672 upon trying to connect. Gimpdrivers would not work, returning the message that the network connection was "busy."
    I took the printer back and am asking you guys...

  • Printer error 9672!!

    every time I try to add my printer on the printer set up utility it responds error 9672. I am using an HP photosmart 3180 printer and my airport express is connected with the printer.
    please help, its driving me crazy!

    Unfortunately, not all USB printers are compatible with the AirPort base stations. The following iFelix website list the known compatible printers. A quick look at the site didn't reveal yours. However, there is a link for "General HP Printer Support" that might prove helpful.

  • Trying to add Canon MP500 printer via Bonjour; get Error -9672

    I have my Airport Express hooked up to my Canon MP500 printer. My computer recognizes the Airport Express. I go to Print & Fax in System Preferences and try and add the printer via Bonjour - it stalls and then displays Error -9672. I have had this printer hooked up successfully before. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    From HP Support
    Reset the device when it is not functioning properly.
    If the device is not functioning properly or to clear memory, reset it.
    On the operator panel, press and hold the <ON/OFF> button for one second. (The display will go blank.)
    Wait approximately ten seconds and then press the <ON/OFF> button again.
    Wait until the device has completed its cycling process before submitting another job request.
    A number of site online mention problems with different brand printers on intel macs. Some have correcedt the problem by downloading an older driver that that which came with the computer.

  • Getting Error -9672 on installing Canoan IP4300 Printer / Bonjour

    Printer is connected to a ReadyNas NV+ server via USB and is provided to the Mac via Bonjour.
    I can easily create a new printer, Mac OS even finds the printer driver - "Canon IJ Printer". But as soon I try to confirm it, I get the eroor "Beim Hinzufügen des ausgewählten Druckers ist ein Fehler aufgetreten. Fehler: -9672"
    This translates to something like "Error on adding new Printer. Error: -9672"
    If I choose by hand the driver "Canon PIXMA iP4300 - Gutenprint v5.1.3" I'm abel to install the printer and use it for printing - BUT the quality of the printout is very miserable. If I print an image, it is almost complete black, its much, much to dark.
    In the Consol Log Files the following error shows up:
    06.01.08 23:54:08 [0x0-0x15015].com.apple.print.add[142] Error -9672, badly formatted ticket XML - Bad XMLStart:
    06.01.08 23:54:08 [0x0-0x15015].com.apple.print.add[142] Bad XMLEnd
    What's the problem here? Why cant the printer driver not be installed? Gutenprint drivers seems not a usabel replacement for the original Canon IJ Printer drivers.
    Any help welcome, Max

    As I wrote in my original posting, the Gutenprint Printer is working over Bonjour, but is only usable for text printing and not for image printing.
    I understood you. However the driver should be giving you good quality printing of images. Since it is not, then I suggested you try deleting it and installing either the stable release (v5.0.2) or the new development release (v5.1.6) and see if that resolves the quality issue. Or, there is the PrintFab option which may also work correctly.
    But the Canon BJ Drivers can not be installed using Bonjour, I get the 9672 error.
    True again. You cannot use the Canon supplied drivers for network connections, other than Mac to Mac printer sharing or Airport connections.
    Apple says Printer IP4300 is compatibel to Leopard
    It is compatible, when connected directly to the Mac via USB or using Mac to Mac printer sharing or when connected via an Airport base station.
    What I do not understand is, if I try to install the printer, the correct BJ Printer driver is selected automatically by the printer system settings - so the printer is detected correctly - the system chooses the BJ driver, not I'm doing this. But if I click OK, I get the error.
    This does happen. The Canon printer driver is not designed to work with your setup, hence the error.
    I do not know if it's Apples or Canons fault, but fact is, the printer is detected correctly an the correct driver is suggested by the system but can not be installed.
    Yes, and this is due to the way Canon has designed the driver software so I believe it is Canon at fault. Note that they have some models of printer/driver that do work with your type of connection. But for your iP4300, the driver does not configure correctly after detecting the printer.
    I also tried all the tips I found and you gave me too, deleting printer folder and reinstall latest driver from Canon, but with no luck at all. This is really annoing, and as much as I like my Mac (I'm a "switcher" I did not expect so simple stupid problems.
    I understand your frustration. If Canon and other vendors put as much effort into writing their Mac drivers as well as they do for Windows, then using a Mac would be more enjoyable. There has been so many times when I have found a function that the Windows driver provides that does not exist with Mac. I would like to think it has nothing to do with Mac having such a small market share of the PC world, but you have to wonder?
