Lenovo IdeaPad v560 Network Printer problem

Good morning, I am connecting wirelessly to a Canon imagerunner and the computer will install properly to the printer, but the printer constantly says offline and any other printer that I try to connect to. The other computers on the network, print to the Canon and Sharp printers just fine, but recently it completely reads every printer as offline. Has this happened to anyone else?

hi uchm12,
first of all, which model of canon printer are you using?
secondly, have you tried to setup the printer by using the disks provided?

HP LaserJet - network printer problem FIXED

Hi,
I'm aware this may not work for all, but I've sorted my own problems, which I suspect are common to many who still have a really solid HP (or other) network printer that was no longer available since Snow Leopard did away with Apple Talk.
The answer is to do a cold reset on your printer, give it a new IP address, find this IP by printing a configuration page and enter this IP when you go to set up a new printer. In my case, it automatically found the correct drivers. The drivers were never the issue with vanishing printers; it was all about the network IP address. A quick search online and you will find how to do the cold reset and config page. For my 2100TN, it was a case of holding down the cancel button when powering up the printer until the lights flashed for a new IP, and to print, press both buttons.
Hope this helps.

Problem solved.
I upgraded the printer's firmware which resolved the issue.
Thanks anyway! :-)

HP Laserjet 1606dn , network printing problem.

Hi all,
I have new HP Laserjet 1606dn. When I setup for USB printing, it can print fine. But when I setup this printer to be network printer, when I order to print 1 page, it always continue printing. I can';t stop printing. I have 5 printers for this model. When I setup another printers, it is still be the same. Anybody can give me the solution. Thank you very much.

I retried the installation from the driver after having cleaned previous installation and having unplugged the printer.
Same problem re-occured

Lenovo IdeaPad V560 AC Adapter

Hello all,
I am having an extremely difficult time locating an AC adapter for my IdeaPad V560 laptop. I purchased it from BestBuy a few weeks ago. There is basically no information about this laptop on the Lenovo website. I am looking for a back-up AC adapter for the V560, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone have any information on this? Thanks.

Network printing problems using an iMac as the server

I am running an iMac OS 9 computer as a server. There are three computers (an iMac, an iBook both running OS 9, and a Powerbook G4, running OS 10.4) connected to the server via ethernet.
Here is the problem: all three computers have been printing from the network printer for over 2 years with no problems whatsoever. As of late, all three stations are attempting to print unsuccessfuly with a message stating that the document cannot be printed because the printer could not be found. The error message asks if you would like to cancel printing or try again. After trying again the document successfully prints (sometimes after one attempt, other times after several attempts). The chooser is recognizing the printer and all settings seem to be correct. I have notice that when selecting the chooser the printer icon does not show up immediately. There appears to be a bit of a delay before the network recognizes it. The printing funtion will work, it is just a bit frustrating that you must sometimes make more than one attempt to print. It does not occur everytime you attempt to print, only most of the time.
One more note, in conjuntion with this error, I have noticed that other applications running through the server will run lightning fast and then all of a sudden will seem to run very slow. When working within an application, windows will appear to freeze for a short time and them resume normally.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I personally use ElGato and it works great, and I too don't use the DVR functionality.

Cups/Xfce network printing problem

I'm really pulling my hair out over this problem, I've tried everything I can think of and everything suggested to me by helpful #archlinux users... So let me start by saying what I am trying to do... It is quite simple in theory.
I have a box running Debian etch with a printer which I am trying to use from this local Arch box.
So Debian has Cups on it and one printer which is shared and published and I have access to the Cups server from this box. I can successfully access the web interface of that box and print a test page. The Cups version on Debian is 1.2.7 (old).
On this box I have a fully updated Arch and I have Cups (1.3.7). Without any configuration, my local Cups web interface shows the printer from the Debian box. I'm not really sure how this works but it appears to relay everything to the remote Cups. I cannot test this printer properly because this leads to a maybe unrelated Xfce issue. Xfce will not show any of my Cups printers (the printing system is set to Cups).
I have followed this section of the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CUP … x_to_Linux And lpq gives me this error:
# lpq
lpq: error - no default destination available.
So instead maybe I will try to add the printer to my local Cups as a network printer. I choose ipp (http) and add the correct url, select either the foomatic HP 940C drivers (correct) or Generic Postscript drivers. The printer is now shown in my local Cups web interface (but not Xfce). If I try to print a test page, however, I get this error in the log:
E [03/May/2008:17:26:24 +0100] [Job 11] Print file was not accepted (Quota limit reached.)!
So in a nutshell I have two possibly unrelated problems. Xfce/lpq cannot find my Cups printers and my Cups cannot print to the remote Cups. I've got to the point where I will just try anything... so any suggestions are welcome, but I don't really want to touch the Debian box, so backporting a newer Cups is not acceptable. Thanks!

You have to check the following:
1. First of all, having access to your remote cups *doesn't means* that you can print. Do you have the same user/pass on both machines? What about printer permissions? Are you able to *manage* (and I mean _manage_) your printer jobs remotely? What about adding a printer remotely?
2. In my case was as simple as installing the printer on the remote computer and enable *internet printing* (on server management). This enables the ipp stuff for remote printing.
3. About printing publishing, have a look on the checkmark "publish printers connected locally to this machine" (or something like that).
And that's all. I don't like to play with lpr because ipp seemed easier, but YMMV. I hope this works for you.
Greetz.
1. I don't have the same username and password... The printer allows the user "guest" to print, which does allow me to print a test page from the remote web interface. I can manage jobs using the remote Cups web interface. I can't add a printer remotely because that needs admin permissions...
2. Not sure where the server management part is. The printer can be used with IPP but it says Quota limit reached.
3. I have checked the printer publishing stuff. The publishing is working as far as I can tell but the printer just won't take any jobs...

P1102w with USB, wired network print problems

Net work is a wired LAN, all workstations run Windows XP SP3
Installed Laserjet P1102w using USB cable. Turned sharing on. Was able to install P1102w on other workstations as wired network printer - But can not print from network work stations - document just sits in print que - Printing from the station printer is hardwired (USB) to works fine

All workstations need to have the printer software installed.
If that does not work, make sure the firewall (on the host and/or remote) stations are not blocking access to the printer. Windows software is usually not the problem, it is more often the antivirus software's firewall. Disable it and retest.

WRT54GP2 - network printer problems

Hello,
My connection to my HP2605dn network printer just disappeared after working for almost a year with no problems. I've checked everythig with the printer and it seems to be fine, the printer and the router are talking. I followed the HP instructions to ping the printer and its just not getting through. I have 4 computers that access this printer through the router and none are getting to it. There have been no changes and the internet and VOIP are working fine.
I tried the usual things:
Shut down all computers, printers, routers and r-started
Changed ports on the router from 101 to 102
Checked the router settings
Still can't figure it out. Any help here would be appreciated.
Regards,
Warren

Run a configuration page on the Printer's Menu and see what network settings the printer has. Sometimes the ip address of the printer somehow changed. Download the driver from the hp website and when you find the ip address from the reports menu just use the add printer, local printer, next, create port and in the drop down choose tcp/ip, next and just follow the rest of the steps. Try to upgrade the driver of the printer.

Found a possible solution to HP 7520 network printing problems

My problem, as seems to have been reported frequently, is that although my HP 7520 printer is active on my wireless network (i.e., printer network diagnostics all OK and printer can receive HP ePrint jobs), my home computers have generally been unable to submit print jobs directly to the printer. The error is something like "Unable to Connect blah blah blah". I used all the methods documented in HP Support articles, and nothing resolved the problem. I am using a Verizon wireless router, Westell A90-9100EM15-10 (http://westell.com/support/ultraline-series3/a90-9100em15-10) running FW version 50.03.00.10. After poking around at random, I found the printer's web interface (i.e., at 192.168.1.20) and found an option in the Network -> Wireless (802.11) -> Advanced webpage. At the very bottom in the "Compatibility" section, there are two options: "In an infrastructure network use 802.11b behavior." and "In an infrastructure network use 802.11b/g behavior." Neither were checked. Since my router was configured for both 802.11b/g, I checked the second option. After clicking "Apply" and allowing the printer to re-connect to the network I do not have the same kinds of printer problems. I have not done enough follow up testing to be certain, and in one case, a laptop on a wireless connection to my 7520 printer did not seem to be able to connect. I used the Command terminal and pinged my printer. Once I did that, the laptop was able to detect the printer, and I was able to submit a print job. I will follow up in the next day or so to report whether or not I have any further problems.
Here is a screen shot of the HP 7520 configuration webpage I mentioned, and I've circled in blue the option I changed.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and make your router secure and hack proof.
1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual).
    This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers. Verify your DHCP range and change this
    first if needed. More Wireless Printing help is here.
2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off' is disabled. Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the
    printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click Settings Tab/Auto Off. Or use the Printer
    Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS).
In the router: (Refer to your router manual for information)
3. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1,6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
4. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router.
5. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode.
6. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security. Nobody can hack your
   system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web).
7. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same,
   they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks.
8. Save all settings. Power off both, wait 2 mins. Power on router wait 2 mins.
9. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router.
Windows 7/8/8.1   Is Network Discovery on or off?

Network printing problems

I have a powerbook G4 running 10.4.9 in a small office setting and every time I send a document to print on the network printer (Lanier LD430C) it prints out a bunch of garbage. Any suggestions? Do I need to buy any software?
THANK YOU for any help you can offer!!

Greg,
I couldn't find the HP Laserjet 6 series, but I did find the gimpprinterdriver.pkg. Again I'm assuming that is it. Unfortunately, the installer was not able to install the .pkg. It began to install and then quit giving me an error message.
Thanks for sticking with me for so long on this. Do you know what might be going on? Thanks

Network Printer Problem from Mac to Windows

Hi all, hoping someone can help. I have a Canon MF4350d printer which is shared on a windows machine. I can access the windows machine, I have installed the latest drive for this printer onto my mac, from the canon website and when i go to print I get the following:
Canon UFR ll Printer Driver
An error occurred.: -50
Then the printer icon starts jumping and when i click on that I see the following under status:
On Hold(Authentication required)
I have yet to print from this macbook to a networked printer. Very disappointing.
Anyone have this issue? Anyone know of a working fix? Thanks Guys.

If you search within this forum (search block, upper right), you will see that PAHU has answered this several times. For example, search for "UFRII windows."
Printing on OS X isn't quite as simple as on Windows - quite often, manufacturers provide drivers that are limited to the comm protocol "they want you to use," and Windows Printing (SMB) is usually not one of those. In fact, most USB printers get USB-only drivers.

Home wireless network printing problem

Hello,
I have a Canon MP610 which I can use just fine connected directly to my Macbook (running Leopard). But I am trying to connect to it wirelessly through a D-Link DIR655 and Windows XP workstation (the Windows computer is connected to the LAN port and the Canon printer is connected to the computer via a USB connection).
I have Printer sharing checked under the Windows Printer Properties and I can “find’ the printer’s name wirelessly on my Macbook when I “add a printer” from the “Print & Fax” box, but I cannot find the driver. I have looked under the “Select a driver to use” option, and “Other” selection. I have installed the latest driver on the Macbook, but don’t know where it is for me to select when that window pops up for me to select one (“Print Using...”).
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Royce

I had the exact same problem with my Canon MP760 when i was using Tiger. The only solution i found was to use an Airport Express base station to connect the printer, then it worked flawlessly. Seems to an issue that some Canon USB printer are not networkable unless they are connected to an Apple product.
I hope you can find a solution other than having to buy another piece of hardware.

Network Printing Problem (cgpdftops)

I'm attempting to print to a networked HP color laserjet 2550 and I'm getting a strange error message in the print status dialog box on every print:
The process "cgpdftops" terminated unexpectedly on signal 10
When this message appears, only the first page of the job is printed. Any idea what signal 10 is as my attempts to find out the meaning have failed.

I added the printer through the IP tab of the add printer dialog box, using the IP of the server as the address and selecting HP Jetdirect-Socket. I accepted the default "Generic PostScript Printer" driver option. I sent a print job, but it hung on an "Network host 'balder.bme.unc.edu' is busy;" error message. I removed and added the printer and added it again, this time selecting the proper driver, but received the same error message.
Issues with this might be related to the fact that there are two printers shared through the server.
I'm also leaning towards this being a printer driver problem, given that I was able to print to another printer (an HP 3500) using the "hp color LaserJet 2.0.1" driver. This driver was automatically selected for the 3500, but I can't seem to find the 2.0.1 driver in the list when attempting to add the HP 2550.
If I add the HP 2550 using the generic PostScript driver, the printer works as expected, all pages print from documents, but the cgpdftops error still appears in the printer queue dialog box.

Hp Officejet Pro 8600 Plus network printing problems

I hard wired my Hp Officejet Pro 8600 plus with an ethernet cable to my router to enable other computers on my network to print to my printer. Several problems have resulted because of this:
1. I cannot find my printer in the Device Manager: it shows as an "unknown device"
2. Sometimes pdf files will print and sometimes they will not. Word and Excel files sometimes print, and sometimes don't.
3. Sometimes documents will spool, but then I get the following message: "Unable to communicate with printer." Then it asks me to make sure all cables are connected and power is on, which is the case.
I have tried all kinds of troubleshooting with information found in Hp forum and on Hp website. Finally, using the HP Print and Scan doctor, I deleted and reinstalled the printer and updated the Full software and drivers. Then I got a message saying "the printer is on your network, but the network software is unable to find it using the typical network discovery method. You can install the printer and operate it normally over the network using the IP address of your printer." I inserted the IP address and it took me through various steps to final installation. I typed a short message into a new document on Microsoft Word and it printed, Then I tried to print some information from the HP website, but this did not print; it didn't even spool.
My router is not detecting the printer on the network either, the light on the port bearing the network cable connected directly to the printer has never been shown to be on, like the other lights. I have been struggling with this for the last several months.
I have an Hp computer, running on Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit). I prefer to use my printer over a network ethernet cable instead of wireless. Please help!

I believe this is the cause of your problem. First, try another known working port in the router. Next, change the Ethernet cable with a known good cable.

HP Photosmart Premium c309g wireless network printing problem with 64bit Windows 7

A problem exists where the c309g is installed on a wireless network where one of the PCs on the network is running 64bit Windows 7. Amongst other things, the printer may print very slowly, appear disconnected or unavailable through the HP Solutions Centre and may not be pingable from any of the PCs on the network. The problem will affect ALL the PCs on the network !
Network monitoring software will also show an enormous level of network traffic between the printer and the Windows 7 PC. As soon as the Windows 7 PC is switched off, everything returns to normal.
The problem is solved by disabling the HP Network Devices Support Service on the Windows 7 PC as follows;
Run services.msc from the Run command on the Windows 7 PC. This will display the list of all the local services running on the PC together with Description, Status and Startup Type information for each.
Scroll down the list until you see the HP Network Devices Support Service.
Right click on it and select Properties to bring up the Properties window.
Use the dropdown list to Change the Startup Type to Disabled.
Once disabled, the printer will start to work normally. HP are aware of this problem which may be unique to the 64bit version of Windows 7.

Thanks but no luck... I tried it..... Got back from son's baseball game.. checked on printer - as in tried to have printer print something... nothing... prior to going out I went ahead and deleted the 6 c309 print devices and reinstalled a new one and got the printer to work... after the game it was back to ignoring print commands... When I go to printers there again are 6 print devices for this printer - one titled HP Photsmart Premium C309 g-m... then 4 copies of that and then one version titled HP0AC58C (HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m).
As I just finished writting that... the printer came alive and started printing some previous jobs... so maybe it helped - not sure but what about the 6 versions of print devices? I just checked the statuses of all the versions and the default is offline... the various copies have different amounts in que but have a pending status of pending deletion... When I tried to make one of the other copies the default printer - it errors out with 0x00000709
