Linux firmware install utility for LJ Pro P1606dn

Hello, world.
I have an old (2010-ish vintage; datecode is 20100223) Hewlett-Packard LaserJet Professional P1606dn laser printer. I want to cloud-ify it so I can print from my Android tablet and my laptop as well.
I don't have a Windows computer, and my Mac is broken. I use Linux almost exclusively now and refuse to install Windows, even if you paid me to. It's the principle of the thing.
Anyway, if Linux drivers are available, why isn't a Linux Firmware Updater? It's not fair.

@toryboy
Thank you for posting your question regarding the p1606 and printing to the cloud using Linux. Unfortunately, we do not have a firmware update that is linux based that will help with your request. However, there is an ubuntu forum that should be able to help you answer your question regarding how to connect your android device to the cloud in order to print to your print. I have included the link below in case you would like to post over there. Unfortunately, while I have experience in printing from mobile devices to our laserjet printer, I just don't have the level of linux experience you need to help with your issue.

Good luck.

The download wouldn't have occurred if Software update detected he had 10.6
It installed and rebooted three times, sot it's obvious it was intentional.
Usually firmware updates are for the hardware itself to fix things and to prepare for features of the next operating system.
You see, I have it too and I'm on 10.6.8 with a Early 2011, the reason I haven't installed it is because it's been constantly changing and causing people issues like this fellow.
EFI 2.1, then 2.2, then 2.3 and now it's 2.7? LOL

Disk Image for Firmware Update Utility for LaserJet p2055dn is corrupted

Yep. Not sure what happened with that one. I have submitted the issue to the software team. Hopefully I can get a copy that works out to you soon. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Update to my previous post: HP confirms that their Firmware Update Utility is broken, but there is another way to update the firmware on a LaserJet P2055dn using a Mac running OS X, and here it is. HP tech support walked me through this procedure and it worked for me: Getting the printer ready: ensure that the LaserJet P2055dn is connected to your computer and make it the default printer. In System Preferences / Printers and Scanners, find your HP LaserJet P2055dn, select it, Click “Open Print Queue” and on the Printer menu, choose “Make Default.” On that same menu, choose “Print Test Page” and verify that the page prints.Using your Web browser, go to the following page on the HP website and click the “Download” button. Don’t worry that the page says it’s for Windows Vista. The file you’re about to download is for your HP LaserJet printer and doesn’t care what kind of computer you use to install it. Here’s the link:
http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ja-143142-1#tab1
When it finishes downloading, go to your downloads folder and find the file HP_LaserJet_P2055dn_20141201_build155964.rfu
(note: you'll probably get a “Preparing for HP separation” message;. Just click OK)In your Applications/Utilities folder, find Terminal, and open it. In the Terminal window, type lp (space) but don’t press “return” yet. Drag and drop the above file from your finder window into the Terminal window. Then press “return”Watch the LCD display on your printer. It should go through several steps, beginning with “erasing” and finally saying “ready.”Go back to the printer’s “Print Queue” window and print another test page. If the test page prints properly, congratulations. You've done it!

Unable to install updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and MS Office 2008

This is a followup post to a nagging problem last fall that prevented successful installation of product version updates for Acrobat Pro 9.0 and Microsoft Office 2008 running under OS X v10.6.5. Days of fruitless, circular pursuit of solutions from both Adobe and Microsoft tech support provided no recognition of the problem…let alone an answer.
Fortunately, a few helpful techs at a nearby Apple Store yielded results. They were initially as perplexed as their counterparts but it gratified to this customer when each recognized the problem was real and was sufficiently motivated to track down a solution.
By process of elimination it was suggested: i) reinstall the original Snow Leopard 10.6.0 upgrade disk; ii) download the v10.6.5 combo update to bring the OS current; and iii) download and install the Acrobat and Office updates. It worked—perfectly—the first time.
The consensus seems to be that a combination of many successive installations of OS and product version updates eventually produced conflicting instructions resulting in stalemate.
Remarkably, it hasn't been necessary (or appealing) to perform a clean install since some point prior to the introduction of OS X. Nor has it since. A 'rollback' to the original Snow Leopard version with one subsequent update to the current OS version appears to have cleared out a nest of remnant conflicting instructions. Kudos to Apple's tech support and Occam's Razor.

Hello,
You can download the Acrobat 9 updates manually by following link:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
However, PDF Maker plugin would not be enable in Outlook, as Acrobat 9 is not support with Office 2013.
Please refer to following compatibility chart:
Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications
You need to have Acrobat 11 to get PDF maker plugin in Office 2013.

Re-install procedure for Premiere Pro CS 5.5

My instalation of Win7 Premiere Pro CS 5.5 is corrupted and I have lost the ability to handle HD files/projects. I can still process SD projects. I have also lost the ability to capture HD video over Firewire (no video, only sound) and I can't work with my earlier completed HD projects. I can't export work areas.
I don't know how to resolve this problem. I have tried rolling back Windows without success. Any suggestions?
I think I need to reinstall Premiere Pro CS5.5
Is there a detailed procedure for the efficient removal and reinstalation.of Premiere Pro using my CS5.5 CDs.
Roger

If you are going to re-Install Premiere on the SAME computer, would it not be better to suspend activation to avoid using an activation "life"?
Indeed a post in this thread
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3650498
by an Adobe staff member who was involved in setting up the activation system, states that if you are re-installing on the same computer, there is no need to de-activate , and no "life" will be used up.
Hunt thinks that we have 8 lives, I am sure I was once told by Adobe support that we have 20.

Can't Install Drivers for Officejet Pro 8600

I have a fresh install of Windows 7 Enterprise, everything installs and works perfectly except for this printer!
I keep getting this error message!
[Window Title]
C:\Users\Annette\Downloads\OJ8600_1315-1(1).exe
[Content]
The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.
[OK]
The rest of my PCs in the network use Windows 8 and Windows 7 Home Edition, all able to install the driver without issues! Please help!

Hello @gicanktrl and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are running into driver errors. I would like to help.
I would suggest Uninstalling the Printer Software.
Once it is uninstalled, I would suggest putting your system into clean boot mode within the Microsoft configuration. You can do so by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.
Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest reinstalling the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

How to install driver for Intel Pro 1000 PCI Network-card

Hello,
I just bought the a.m. Intel Pro 1000 Network adapter, but I don't know at all how to install the driver for Solaris 10.
The installation instructions delivered from Intel didn't help me at all, because I can't uncompress the INTCGigae.pkg and the INTCGigaE.tar.z files.
I copied them to /tmp and folllowed Intel's Installlation Instructions.
Please keep in mind I am new to Solaris 10, with no Linux/Unix experience, when helping me.
Thanks in advance for help and assistance.

Hi!
And what happens if you install the driver from the Toshiba WLAN portal:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan
I still dont know what you mean with Askey for Toshiba
You should try to install the driver manually. Choose in device manager the WLAN card, right click and select Update Driver. Choose the advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself and navigate to the folder where you have stored the downloaded driver.

Emagic Logic Control firmware install file Logic 8 pro

Can anyone help by telling me how to install the firmware on my old Logic Control. I have tried to run the Mackie midi update and now the Logic Control will not boot, I thing the firmware has been damaged. Emagic used to send a .mid file does anyone have it? I was burgled and all my software discs were taken. Please help if you can.

its not showing in my audio midi set up - but never has previously...but the device it connects via does show up - From what was said in the quick start guide, you only have to add it as a control surface within logic...Where logic already has the relevant driver; waiting to be selected from a list...As for updating anything; I havn't touched a thing. It was literally a case of one day, everything worked; the next day it didn't - mackie said logic had made a corrupt preference file (user/whatever your user nameis/library/preferences/logic) that their would be a file named should be something like
(Com.apple.logic.pro.CS) which there was, and to drag the file to the trash then restart the
computer...This did work to an extent; the 'v-pot' part of the control which had stopped working came back to life and everything now works fine...accept the jog/timeline issue...
I have added it in Audio Midi set up...in the hope that it will help - What properties should I set it to have? anything special - Appologies for seeming dense, I just make music; normally things just seem to have worked! And my technical knowledge is somewhat lacking im affraid.
Thanks for your help - it really is appriciated

What is best cloning utility for MacBook Pro

I am about ready (finally as Mountain Lion's release approaches) to upgrade my mid-2009 17 inch MacBook Pro from Snow Leopard to Lion. Only pieces remaining are a hard drive to clone my internal 750mb hard drive to and the Lion sw itself.
I know there used to be free and paid utilities to clone Mac drives. Which would you current pros and experts recommend? I'd prefer free if possible but if not too expensive would pay for the utility.

I use CarbonCopyClone. Free download. Makes a bootable copy of the drive. Makes a full baseline copy first, then adds to it.
SuperDuper!. The free version always makes a full copy clone. The $30 version will make a baseline clone and then incrementally add to the baseline. Also makes a bootable clone.

Trying to install InDesign (Adobe) but when I double click the Install it calls up FTP Client Ultimate?? What is the install program for MACBook Pro?

I'm new to MAC, that said I really haven't had much trouble with it except today I am trying to install Adobe InDesgin but it keeps trying to use FTP Client Ultimate to do so.. What is the installer that it should be using? I was hoping it would auto start and install but no such luck..

Thanks, I have posted to Adobe regarding their program, but my question here ( I'm new to Mac world) is what install program would normally install this? For some reason my MacBook pro keeps calling on FTP Client Ultimate to do the install and clearly that's not the right program to install a program..
I Love mu Mac, but getting help is a it frustrating...
i'm sure Apple has a program similar to InDesign, but have no idea what it would be..

Where can I download an install file for Acrobat Pro version 9 for Mac.

I had Acrobat Pro version 9 running fine under Snow Leopard but since upgrading to first Mavericks and then Yosemite it has issues. I was running it under Snow leopard Server and parallels but after some problem it needs reinstalling and I can't find a suitable install file.
I searched the Adobe web site and came up with the Windows version but my Mac version Serial number is no good for that. Any ideas where I might find the file?

You can find the download on http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html

Re-install questions for Logic Pro 8

I have recently switched from a G5 to the new Mac Pro. I installed the two hard drives from my G5 into slots 2 and 3 on my Mac Pro. Each is 300GB. Slot 1 is the 320GB hard drive that came with the Mac Pro. My plan is to use the main drive (slot 1) for all other applications, do a clean install on my second 300GB drive (slot 2) and update to Mac OS 10.5, then re-install only Logic Studio on this drive. I use my third hard drive (slot 3) to record audio to. I will probably add another hard drive to slot 4 to use either for virtual instruments (Vienna Strings, Wallander), or use it as backup for my system.
I am a long time Logic user (since 1995) and have been continually updating, my last update being to Logic Studio from Logic Pro 7. I want to avoid any unforeseen issues with re-installing from an update, so I would really appreciate any advice on the best procedure to accomplish this re-install. I also am intending on keeping an alias of Logic Pro 8 on the dock of my main drive to open and use Logic from my second drive, and will store all logic song files on the second drive with the application, and continue to record audio to the third drive, as mentioned above. Any helpful wisdom or suggestions for improvement on this configuration would be great too, but I'm mainly asking for help on Logic Studio re-install.

Happy New Mac
My plan is to use the main drive (slot 1) for all other applications, do a clean install on my second 300GB drive (slot 2) and update to Mac OS 10.5, then re-install only Logic Studio on this drive.
That's fine except that most applications (and certainly Logic) have to be installed on the boot drive, and the library or user library +on that drive+ will contain all library files such as application support, preferences etc.
I use my third hard drive (slot 3) to record audio to
That's where old and new Logic projects should live.
I will probably add another hard drive to slot 4 to use either for virtual instruments
Good idea.
or use it as backup for my system.
I'd suggest an external drive for backups, with a basic system on it in a separate partition, solely used for emergencies. Most of the time it should be 'off' except when actually backing up.
and will store all logic song files on the second drive with the application
Shouldn't they be on your 3rd. drive? All projects, old and new, should live on that, I think.
Also, be aware that if you plan to install Logic 7 (for old projects) re-install this first, before you install Logic 8. You can't do this in the wrong order. This will be on the same boot drive and Logic 8 (and your system).

Change the install path for Acrobat Pro X

Hi everybody! I just downloaded the AcroX trial to see what's beef with the new release, but I ran into a very annoying problem:
I'm quite nitpicking about my Applications folder, and I installed all of my other Adobe software into an "Adobe" subfolder.
I just noticed that during the installation is not possible to easily change the installation path like you can do in other Adobe setups...
I found this in the KB
(http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/877/cpsid_87775.html#main_Known_issues_on_Mac_OS)
"You cannot install Acrobat to a custom location." and other stuff...
The question is: do you have any idea of the priority of this bug? Will this be fixed anytime soon?
Thanks, Agia

Hi,
Just followed the link you gave. In the try option for Acrobat X Pro the dropdown only has options for Windows installers and not MAC Installers.
Secondly to answer your issue for customize installation to a path on OS 10.6, follow the following steps:
1) Mount the dmg on MAC
2) Launch the installer package
3) Click OK on popup that you need to close running instances of Acrobat
4) Click next to go to Read Me.
5) Click next to move to Installation Type screen where we have buttons "Install", "GoBack" and "Customize". Click on Customize
6) In this screen you will see 3 checkboxes "Application", "Browser Plug-In" and "Print Workflow" with columns as Package Name, Location, Action and Size
7) Corresponding to Application Checkbox there is Location specified (With a small folder icon) - Adobe Acrobat X Pro. Click on this to select your location (2nd column)
This is similar to what traditional Apple products installers do like XCode installer. There is nothing new in this.
Thanks,
Karan
