Laserjet 4 - C2001A, Windows 7 64-bit, Not printing

I have a C2001A (Laserjet 4). I had it completely rebuilt a year ago as it is a great machine. My previous computer started having problems, so I bought a new one with Windows 7 (64 bit), and now the printer does not respond. I bought a USB to parallel cable and followed all of the various directions from the HP site and the Windows site to no avail. There has to be a solution to this problem...what is it? Please help! The printer works fine with Windows XP on my old computer.
I also tried deleting the driver, hooking up the cable, turning on both units, and the computer recognized a new device and downloaded a driver. When I tried to print, the printer didn't even blink. This is the same result I had with all of the other things I tried. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.

The product you have seems to be a commercial printer. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!
You may find the Commercial Laserjet board here.

HP Laserjet 4100 on network will not print

Since I’ve installed Snow Leopard, I have not been able to print with my HP Laserjet 4100.
My set-up: new 24” iMac, many hard drives and more. Two devices: HP Color Laserjet 5550 and HP Officejet J5750 are connected to the iMac through a USB Hub. Although initially scanning did not work with the J5750, I was able to make that work once additional drivers were downloaded from HP. Both work fine.
I also have an older HP Laserjet 4100 which has been my steady workhorse for years. It only has Ethernet and serial port outlets. It is connected to an AT&T 2-Wired Ethernet Hub/DSL Modem (model 2701HG-B) that is connected to the iMac.
I’ve contacted HP and Apple about this problem. None of the three people I worked with at Apple could help and the HP representative was unsure if they could help but that it would cost me $40 to find out. According to HP website, since Apple Talk no longer exists, we are required to input the IP for the device. For the 4100, the IP address is 10.0.1.100. I tried this two ways: in the “Add Printer” window under “IP,” inputted as the IPP, and inputted as the HP Jetdirect Socket (as per the HP instructions). When this is done, the printer shows up when you give a print command. However, it does not show up in the “Add Printer” window under “default” or anywhere else.
Status: If I connect the 4100 Ethernet cable directly to the back of the iMac, the “Supply” level indicates the true level of toner in the 4100. However, it will not print. If I connect the 4100 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet hub, the supply level does not show nor can I print.
Any suggestions?

I am struggling with the same problem. I have two HP 4100dtn printers on ethernet. Each has a manually assigned IP address. I can set up the printer(s) just fine in the Print & Fax Preference and Snow Leopard finds the printer just fine when I enter the IP address and chooses the correct HP Driver.
When I try to print, my print job appears in the queue as expected, than an error appears that something about a "bad command". Sorry, I'm home right now and don't have direct access to the printer so I can't give you the precise language of the message, but the gist of the message is that the system tried to connect to the printer to send the print data but the printer does not know how to respond to the command that was sent.
It's as if the firmware in the 4100 just doesn't have something in it's lexicon that Snow Leopard needs. The HP web site is no help. One page I found says the printer is supported (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&obje ctID=c01664444&jumpid=regR1002USEN ) and another page I found says that it is not supported (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&obje ctID=c01879014&jumpid=regR1002USEN). The HP on line chat won't let me log in and hold a chat with HP unless I know the Serial Number of the printer, which I don't have here at home.
More to follow tomorrow.
Anyone have any ideas?

Laserjet P1006, Windows 7, won't print readable maps (poor greyscale - halftones)

Laserjet P1006, Windows 7 64 bit,
won't print readable maps (poor greyscale - halftones)
The HP website shows a "density" slider control in the print driver, but the driver that they have for download doesn't have this control. I did set the driver to RET1600 but that made little improvement.
Tips to correct this flaw greatly appreciated!
AHI

2nd Request
I set this printer up with a Windows XP computer, and the printer works fine with the XP driver. The problem is with the WIndows 7 driver - the print density is too low to print maps in a readable fashion.
Can anyone please help with printing greyscale (maps in this case) in the HP Laserjet P1006 with Windows 7 ???

HTTP Server for Windows 64 bit not on the companion CD

Hi,
I cannot find the HTTP Server for Windows 64 bit on the companion CD. Any idea where I can get it from? For the 32bit version the HTTP Server is on the Companion CD.
Thanks in advance,
Florin

If i am correct reason should be : Oracle Application Server 10g will run as a 32-bit application
Following platforms have the same media in either case:
Microsoft Windows 32-bit and EM64T/AMD64
(Not Itanium-64, which is separate and referred to as "Windows 64-bit")
Linux x86 and Linux x86-64
Solaris Sparc 32-bit and Solaris Sparc 64-bit
As the Oracle Application Server 10g will be run as a 32-bit application. See the Installation Guide or readme files for any specific steps on these 64-bit platforms.
Refer the Note.433061.1 - How to Obtain Application Server 10g Media, Patchsets, and Patches

Hp running windows 8 will not print black on printer's

I have a hp running windows 8 and two different brand printers both will not print in black when hooked up to this computer. One is a hp photosmart and the other a lexmark. Both with cleaned heads and full cartridges. Both will scan using black or test page will print black, but will only print in color from the computer. If i change black text to blue or another color it prints but not black. My best guess is some setting on the computer thats causing this seeing how two different printers will not print black on this computer but will on other computers

What is the HP Photosmart printer model?

Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and/or a malfunctioning Real Player browser plugin.

HP LaserJet 400 MFP M425dn does not print 1/4" of the page when using the feeder

Hello,
When using the feeder to make a copy I lose about 1/4" of my copy along one side.
We copy a lot of full page sheets with little or no margins.
Any suggestions on how to correct this?
Thank you

Most (if not all) commonly available laser printers have 'unprintable margins' on each edge.
On most LaserJet printers, these margins are about 4 mm (0.167"), although on some devices I believe that smaller unprintable area margins (of about 2 mm) can be selected when printing (although possibly not when copying).
When printing with PCL5 drivers, there is also the minimum logical page margin to be taken into account - this is about 6 mm (0.24") by default, although the printing options mentioned above (on some models) can reduce this slightly.

New HP LaserJet Professional M1212nf MFP Will Not Print Over Network

We have a new HP LaserJet Professional M1212nf MFP. I've assigned it an IP address, static, and it pulls up on it's web interface. I loaded the printer for network printing on our Small Business Server 2003 and installed it on several PCs. No matter what we do, it will not accept a print job, even the test page. Nothing sent to it will print. I've checked print spoolers, drivers, etc. Nothing seems out of place. Any suggestions?

Latest iTunes 10.1.1 for Windows 64-bit NOT recognizing iPhone 4...***?!

Hey All,
My iPhone 4 is not being recognized by my brand new PC laptop - Dell Studio 1558 with Windows 7 (64-bit).
Each time I attempt to synch the iPhone 4 with the PC, I get the same error message below:
"This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes."
I've installed and uninstalled and installed and unistalled latest iTunes 10 (64 bit version) and keep getting this error message above.
Surely this can't be an overall iTunes 10 glitch with the iPhone 4?!?! When does next version come out? Apple staff has been unable to help me so I thank anyone in advance who has a solution for this. Happy New Year =)
-josh

I've also got a similar problem. I upgraded yesterday & today I find (mainly with previously purchased tracks) that iTunes only playes about 51sec of a track. The whole track plays when using "Quicktime" but this doesn't help me when I'm trying to put together a playlist.
Can anyone out the help?
