Laser Jet CP1215 Color Matching Issues;

Colors are abnormally darker than the photos, art and copy especially those in red.They appear to be redishbrown.
But, not all the photos/art on a page are effected.
I have been working with HP Thech service guy who has put me through several days of worthless exercises, The printer's Self Test is perfect. I also created a custom color to no avail.
The problem evolved over the past month. I have replaced all the origional cartriges with 123 Inkjets HP Copatibles over the past year with no problems until now.

My printer HP color laser jet CP1215 seems to have frozen and no matter what i do it won't restart

I have the HP color laser jet CP1215 and it seems to have frozen. I have tried unplugging and replugging the printer as well as just turning it on and off. I was able to delete some of the documents in the queue but there is one that I cannot delete and it is freezing the printer.

Hi,
If that did not work there is more wrong than just a hanging printjob, the step should have removed it.

Welcome to the HP Forums MillaMagia,
I see by your post that the USB isn't being recognized.
I can help you with this issue.
Are you using the same USB cable? (known good USB cable)
You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 cable and not the latest USB 3.0.
USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
Try another USB port on the Laptop, some of the USB ports are more powered then others.
I have provided a document to see if the printer is partially recognized in the device manager, which is causing the printer not to be recognized again. (the uninstall from the CD should have removed the entry and the printer from the registry)
Leave the printer turned on and the USB cable connected directly to the computer and the printer's power cord directly into a wall outlet.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Here is a document for Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
Check to see if there are any hardware driver conflicts, you might see a ! mark or a red x beside a device with a conflict or unknown device, look under universal serial bus controllers, look for USB printing support or mass storage device, delete the entry by right clicking and select uninstall, OK.
Let me know how it was listed. (screen shots welcome)
If this is a Laptop then check the power management settings.
Access the device manager. Windows 8-How do I access the Device Manager.
Select universal serial bus controllers from the list, for each USB root hub, right click and left click on properties, for power management remove the check mark for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". It allows the computer to limit or turn off power for this device.
Disconnect the USB, run the full uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

HP Laser Jet 400 Color Printer won't print from my mac but will from others on the network.

My HP laser jet 400 color printer will not print from my mac except when I send a test page. The other printers on the network are printing with no problems. Has anyone else had this problem? Help?

Hello ElizabethF,

Hp Color Laser Jet 5550dn Print Quality Issues

Good Afternoon,
I have a Hp Color Laser Jet 5550dn that has some print quality issue. I've attached a black and white scan, but the color is a light blue to blue that form the blotches. On the back of the page there are blue and pink streaks.
I can print more sample pages or print them in color, but anyone have any idea what could be going on here?

We are encountering a similar problem. The streaking is coming fromt the Cyan cartridge and has continued for over a year now, despite numerous cartridge changes and replacing the transfrer case. It is progressively getting worse and I have yet to find a solution to this problem online. Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Color match issue in FCPX 10.1.4

I recently upgraded from FCPX 10.0.9 under OSX Snow Leopard to FCPX 10.1.4 under OSX Mavericks. In th latest version of FCPX I recognized that the results of the color match function are very different compared to version 10.0.9 of FCPX. I used it a lot with great results, in the latest version the colors don't match anymore. I re-installed FCPX version 10.0.9 under OSX Mavericks and the color match function is working perfectly. Anybody else has this issue? For now I'm back to the old version until I find a solution to my problem.

Still, the question remains - if one adjusts for it in the display calibration (uncheck the box in color)
THEN one's rods & cones just get bleached out. Snowblind. Yes?
Here are 2 solutions. In my opinion, Larry is best (do it at export in compressor)... Apple's H.264 is an issue, I do use the x264 encoder.
http://www.larryjordan.biz/compressor-x264-improve-video/
I like this guy's idea:

--And here is the "Ready Made" "plug ins":
http://bananamanafilms.com/gamma-and-yuv-plugin-for-fcpx
Alex4d on his "Old Site" has both Gamma & YUV plug-ins as well. He is most generous.
I do miss having the "super white" setting from FCP 7 - however - one really always has to
"finish" the look after exporting to file - or at least I do. In fact i usually need another pair of eyes
for really subtle stuff. Prefeably youngsters that aren't part red/green color blind like me.

Color matching issues

I'm working in CS3 Web premium. I had to make jpgs for a rollover link in photoshop to drop in Dreamweaver. The black background in Dreamweaver and Photoshop are off a couple of shades and this shows when viewing in a browser. Is there a preference to color match across the apps as I run into this often.
anybody?

hello,
dreamweaver is not color managed, so on a mac, it will apply your monitor profile
the short answer is to
calibrate/profile monitor to 2.2 gamma, d65/6500
convert to sRGB before Save For Web or importing in dreamweaver

Can you install the HP color Laser Jet CP1215 on a Mountain Lion Macbook Pro?

I can not get the HP Laserjet CP1215 to work with my Macbook Pro running ML. Please help.

It's hard to answer without know which variant of the iMac you have or what Mac OS version you have. However, when I checked the HP web site, they do not show Mac driver support for this printer model.
Sounds like they plan no Mac support for this model in the future, per this quote from their support page for that printer:
We have received inquiries about Macintosh support for the HP LaserJet 1018, LaserJet 1018s, LaserJet 1020, LaserJet 1020 Plus, LaserJet CP1215, and LaserJet CP1217 printers. We are sorry to inform you that there is no Macintosh support available for your HP product.

Epson R1800-color match issues solved

I had reported issues with the printer no longer matching the monitor colors
many of you said to get a hardware device and calibrate monitor
instead I downloaded a newer driver for the printer
still had issues
SO:
I changed from printer manages colors to PS managed workflow and decided to use color profiles from ILFORD (smooth glossy)
document space sRGB-IEC61966-2.1
printer profile- ISGP9.....etc
relative colormetric (recommended by Epson document)
black point compensation ticked
then in Epson interface:
turn off printer mgmt (check ICM box>> then check off)
if you use preview before print, the image will look hideous in the interface, but prints fine
looks pretty good
prints match monitor colors
so I am thinking it is the Espon color profiles that are whack
Kat

This is all good info, but for me at least, the real issue is not whether you can get the driver/printer to function (most people seem to be able to get it working) but when you get it functioning under Snow Leopard are there color issues.
Although the printer may work fine for basic documents etc, it is for color-critical photo work that I need my 2200. Many other posts are reporting that although the driver is functioning, there are fairly severe color issues when trying to create high-quality photographic prints using the standard color-managed workflow. This would be rather crippling for photographers and other artists who rely on their 2200.
Maybe those posting here could comment on whether they have been using their 2200 for photographic purposes and whether or not they have seen color issues. I wonder if some people just aren't noticing a problem because they aren't doing color-managed photographic work.
I haven't installed Snow Leopard yet and I'm trying to determine if this is affecting a very small percentage of people or if everyone is having trouble getting proper color from their 2200 since Snow Leopard. So far I haven't seen a single post specifically stating that they they are using the 2200 for high quality photo printing and have had no color issues under Snow Leopard.

Laser Jet 100 Color MFP M175nw "Very low" message even after changing cartridge

Hello, Windows 7, 64 bit. Connection: USB. After a "supply very low" message for the black cartridge, I changed it to a completely new one (HP original toner with the hologram), but I still got a "very low" message and the print quality remained faint. Nothing worked: I tried the 3 solutions posted by Shirlzz1 to another user that had exactly the same problem (Alan_Gilmore), i.e. 1) taking out and reseating cartridges, 2) hard reset, and 3) taking cartridges out and hard reset, then reseating cartridges. I also tried a cleaning and a print quality report. All looked fine, but still "very low" message and faint print quality. The only thing that worked was changing the cartridge a second time to a completely different (new) one -- now everything's fine. So I'm guessing the first replacement cartridge I used is defective. However, is there anything else I can try with the apparently defective cartridge? They do cost a pretty penny, especially here in Denmark. Thanks for taking the time to look at this.

Hi,
Please check for these settings
setup menu> system setup>supply settings
Under this you have a option
Black Cartridge
very low settings>stop/Prompt/Continue, select continue
low threshold> on/off
same for color too
Hope this helps

Laser Jet Printer/Color Text Prints Grey

Hi everyone, I have a HP LaserJet 2430, black & white printer hooked up to my iMac. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.6. When I want to print, for example, an email where a color was used for the font, the colored font prints in grey. When I was able to use the printer driver of my choice, I believe I used a PS or post script driver and everything printed in solid black. Now that the operating system is choosing the drivers for us, I seem to have this grey text issue. I've tried going to HP and downloading older drivers but they wouldn't install on my system, something about the drivers being older versions or something. I'd sure like to be able to choose my own drivers. Can anyone lend any help on this?
I am able to make the colored text print a little darker but I have to go through many dialog boxes to change different settings and I just want to print quickly but any application but be able to read the text a little easier.
Thanks for any help!

I understand you are having issues printing a custom size. I would like to help, but I will need some more information.

Converted is 4.9 x 9.84 in inches.
I have included the manual for setting up custom sizes on page 51. LASERJET PROFESSIONAL CP1020.
