Hi,
i have a problem.l
i would to configure IP address on hp laserjet p2015dn but the linux driver and toolbox do not allow this.
using winXp i can configure Ip address using the "HP TOOLBOX" that comes with the cd-driver, but I can not do it with xubuntu.
Please help me.
P.S. i'm sorry for my english

I was not clear about the question. i can not access the router.

Difficulty installing HP Laserjet 2015dn printer

Receipient of a fully functioning Laserjet 2015dn but am at a loss how to install. In past have only installed direct connect printers using the pin type connections. I have read the manual and gone to try to download the the driver online.
My OS is Windows XP 32 bit.
My questions are:
1. There is a network port plus another port which the manual identifies as a USB port. However, it is shaped completely different to a standard USB port. It is more or less rectangular (with bit of a hex on one side) in shape with a largish square plastic piece in the middle of the hole. A USB cable does not fit into it. What sort of cable will I need to use to connect the printer to the computer? Or, would I be able to connect the printer by using the network cable (RJ45 10/100) directly from the printer to network port on my desktop? In the manual under available ports it is described as "compatible with high speed USB 2.0 specifications"
2. What driver should I download? When I go to the page to download the driver there are so many choices I just don't know which one to download for a direct connect to a PC (i.e. no network) on a 32 bit XP OS.
This is the page for the drivers. http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=1845555&...
Can anyone offer any direction/help/assistance? Thank you.
PS : Happy to send an image of the so called USB port if anyone is interested.

Hi Crelle,
When the manufacturer says they don't support something, it's generally best to stay away from it.
There's almost always 3 ways to do any 1 thing, but you may need you printer to do more than 1 thing and therefore you're going to have issues with all the other things.
Printing to a printer sounds like 1 thing, but it's not.
It's many things working together to get ink on paper.
My advise is get a supported printer and live without a headache.

Universal Printer Driver for HP LaserJet 2015dn & 64-bit Windows 7 Lacks Many Features

On my new computer with 64-bit Windows 7 Professional, I tried installing the drivers from the LaserJet 2015dn's CD in Windows 7 Compatibility Mode. It produced error messages, but one time it got far enough to print, but it did not provide all the feature functionality present on my XP machines. (Such as Print On Both Sides, Correct Order for Straight Paper path, selectable customized settings I can save, etc.) When I went to the HP site directly, for my specific printer with "Windows 7 64-bit", I was directed to a Universal Driver file (the only choice) that gave essentially the same result -- except that Print On Both Sides is now available, but not any of the other features I use regularly. (For example, on my XP machines I am able to set up multiple Print Task Quick Sets in the Printing Preferences "Finishing" tab so that I can quickly select one with the features I want for a specific print job. That feature is not available with the Universal Driver.)
Please tell me how I can get the full functionality of the P2015dn to be available in 64-bit Windows 7.
I hope there is a specific driver set available for that printer that accesses all the features.
Thank you.

Changing the IP Address manually for Laserjet 2100TN

Hi there--
We recently updated all the IP addresses for our LAN to facilitate the set-up of a VPN. Due to problems arising from DHCP address assignment in the past, we maintain addresses manually on the network. Unfortunately this has led to a problem where our old 2100TN is now unreachable on the ethernet network and we are unable to change its IP address; ordinarily this would not be an issue as the Macintosh computers on the network can still find it via AppleTalk, but the PCs are unable to locate it. I tried running HP's network set-up wizard from a PC connected to the network the printer's on and was unable to locate it even when I searched for the printer's hardware address; this was also the case when I connected directly to the printer with an ethernet cable.
Is there any other way to reconfigure the printer's network settings without potentially disrupting our entire network again? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried changing the printer's IP address manually from one of the Macs that can see it?
I include a copy of a reply on a related subject, from the person on this forum whose user name is IronBadger. Some of it may be helpful. Thank him if it helps.
I am a Mac consultant in Chicago, familiar with the 2100TN.

IronBadger's helpful and informed post begins here:
Since Apple removed AppleTalk from 10.6 it may be slightly more complicated to connect your 5100. But it is possible.
A lot depends on what your internet connection is. Do you use wired or wireless ethernet to connect to the internet? If you are using a wired connection your 5100 will need an IP address that matches your Macintosh. This will involve using the printers control panel to manually assign a TCP/IP address that is in the same range as your Macintosh. Wireless instructions below.
If the Mac has an IP address of 169.254.12.54 and subnet mask as 255.255.0.0, change the IP of the printer to 169.254.12.55, change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 and change the Gateway to match what is shown on t he Mac. If your Macintosh gets an IP address directly from your ISP (via DHCP) you may be required to obtain an additional address for the printer.
If you are using wireless (airport) to connect to the internet and just have the printer connected to the Macintosh with wired ethernet the information below should help you get connected.
I have copied a document below that discusses putting the printer on the same network as the Macintosh.
These are the instructions for manually configuring the IP Address on a Macintosh to match an AutoIP generated IP address on a printer.
When some HP LaserJet printers are connected to a network but there is not a DHCP or BOOTP server available it will generate an IP address in the AutoIP range of 169.254.x.x where the last two numbers are derived from the printer's MAC address.
To verify the printer's IP address print a configuration page.
If the printer configuration shows the IP in the Range of 169.254.X.X then the printer has typically self configured an IP address.
If the Macintosh is either not connected to the internet or is not using Built-in Ethernet for internet connectivity the IP address on the Macintosh can be configured to connect to the printer on a local network.
This can also be used to temporarily connect to a printer with no control panel and change its IP address.
Check the IP address on one of the computers on the local network:
1. Click on the Apple menu.
2. Select System Preferences.
3. Select the Network System Preference.
4. Click the TCP/IP tab, click the Configure IPv4 dropdown. and select “Manually.”
5. Change the IP address as mentioned in the following example.
• If the printer has an IP address of 169.254.12.54 and subnet mask as 255.255.0.0, change the IP of the computer to 169.254.12.55, change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 and change the Gateway to 0.0.0.0.
Connectivity to the printer can be confirmed by:
Opening the embedded web server using a browser by typing http://<ip address of printer>.
Setting up a print queue for the printer using Print & Fax System Preference.

Laserjet cp 1025nw - in linux pictures too dark, print can be blur by hand

Hello,
I have bought LJ CP 1025NW to work in my mostly linux based network. Iam disapointed by prints it produce from linux systems. Text documents are good, but when I try to print picture, it is too dark. And if I use (hp laser) photopaper, pictures can by blur by hand, it contains waste toner. But when I use windows machine with windows drivers, it prints quite good quality photos (for laser printer).
Is there a way to force linux drivers have similar results as windows ones?
Regards,
JR

Hello there @JR_Ewing!
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
I understand your getting some quality issues when printing photos from the Linux operating system to your LaserJet CP 1025NW printer. If the printer is printing the photos from Windows operating system OK and the self test report print fine, then the only thing I can really do is refer you to the Ubuntu Forums.
I hope this helps! Thanks again for posting on the HP Forums!

IPv4 Gateway Issue? - HP LaserJet 400 M401dn / 400 MFP M425dn

Hello,
I work in healthcare and in our environment we have mostly HP LaserJet printers. Within the last 6 - 12 months we have started using some HP LaserJet 400 M401dn and HP LaserJet 400 MFP M425dn printers. They all have been updated with the latest firmware (20 printers) and connect to the network via ethernet using IPv4. We are having an issue when trying to print to them from a specific application. It's only happening on these particular models. All other HP LaserJet printers DO NOT have this problem (HP LaserJet 2015dn, 2055dn, P4015dn, 600 M602dn). The application is a telnet client using SSL that connects to a server. This server is on a different subnet (128.1.x.x) than the printers (10.92.x.x) that the clients print to.
It is possible to 'ping' the printer within the application using the printer hostname or IP address. The problem is, there are times when the printer status says 'Ready', and we can ping the printer from within the Windows operating system (Win7 Pro), but we cannot ping it via telnet SSL client. There is no response. The result is, we cannot print from the application to these printers. This problem isn't consistent either. There are times when it does work!
If we assign the printer to the same subnet as the application server, the issue appears to go away. Unfortuantely this is not a feasible permanent fix for us as the printers need to remain in their current subnet.
Sleep Mode is disabled on all of these printers. IPv4 settings are all correct and have been verified by various IT staff.
We believe there is an IPv4 gateway issue within the NICs on these printers. Has anyone ever had a similar issue? Are there any other additional details that I should provide which might help resolve this issue?
Regards.

To start off, the issue you are having may be caused by the softare you are using or the HP software. I am gonig ot to do some investigating to find out. I will want to to make sure that the softare is the most current version, follow the link below and reinstall if necessary (do not rely upon the CD-ROM):
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?prodNameId=5096244&lang=en&cc=us...
Then if it is the same or you are still having issues I would recommend trying to use the PCL6 drivers for this. They offere a broader support to some of the more code specific programs :

LaserJet pro 200 color MFP M276nw Network Setup Issues

Successfully set up the printer. Elected to use Wifi option. Wireless computers are able to print to it no problem. Went to go do my first scan, and it tells me to setup the print to network drive. So i go to do this, and the HP software on the host computer (with USB connection) tells me that it can not setup unless is printer is connected to a network.
Obviouslly it is connected to a network....
So turned off Wifi. Turned off printer. Wired it to the router. Turned on. And still get the error message. For that matter, can not find in the Printer menu (on printer) where i can "setup" a wired connection.
I am a computer nerd, but for some reason i gots the dumb today. Some pointers would be appreciated - regarding the printer that is.
This question was solved.

Hi @joe_smoe ,
I see that you are having issues Scanning from the printer's control panel, you are getting a message to setup the printer to a network drive. I would be happy to help you.
I have provided some steps for you to try. I would suggest though, since the printer is already on the wireless network with the other computers, to just create a new port for wireless on the computer that was setup by a USB connection, instead of setting up the Ethernet connection. A Ethernet connection will turn off the Wireless on the printer.
Since you are now connecting the printer to the router by a Ethernet connection, you can print a Configuration Page to get the printer's IPv4 address. HP LaserJet Pro 200 Color MFP M276n and MFP M276nw - Printing a Configuration Report.
Then you can create a new port for the Ethernet connection.
Then go into Devices and Printers, right click the printer and left click Printer Properties, select the Ports tab.
Click Add Port, select Standard TCP/IP Port, then select New Port and follow the wizard.
Type in the proper IPv4 address for the printer.
Make sure the printer is online.
Test the printer.

HP LaserJet Printer Network Replacement for AppleTalk

Have found the fix for making the HP LaserJet 2100 TN work on an Ethernet network with Snow Leopard OS. The key was finding the address of the LaserJet on the network. This was done by holding down the two buttons on the top of the printer simultaneously for five seconds. This causes a ‘JetDirect Configuration Page” to print. On that is the IP Address of the printer.
With that information, open the ‘Print and Fax” page of the Systems Preferences. Under the list of printers click the ‘+’ sign. This open a dialogue box. Click the ‘IP’ icon at the top. Under Protocol, chose HP Jetdirect – Socket. In the Address space enter the IP Address of the printer. In the Name space enter ‘HP LaserJet 2100 Series’. You may have to select the print driver from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the page, or it might self select. Then click ‘Add’.
Should do it.
This is all caused by Apple not including AppleTalk support in Snow Leopard. The process could work for other printers.

Just keep in mind that if there is not a permanent address assigned to the printer, if the network resets itself for whatever reason, there may be a new address assigned to it, and you will have to go through this process again. You should be able to configure a permanent address for the printer to avoid that problem. Check with the documents for the printer or the print server. You can also reserve addresses through your router so that address will not be assigned to another device.

HP Laserjet 2200 problem solved v2

I was having problems getting Snow Leopard to recognise my old HP LaserJet 2200 (in my case a 2200DN which I was trying to access through the Ethernet port of a Time Capsule). Tony from London in this post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10073041&#10073041 explained how to find the IP address of your LaserJet (for the 2200DN you press Go and Job Cancel buttons simultaneously, and the details are printed out). In my case Tony's solution of using this to connect via the Internet Printing Protocol did not work. Instead I found it did work using the HP Directjet - Socket protocol. The steps are:
1. Find the IP address of your printer as described above.
2. Click the + sign to add a printer in the Print & Fax preferences window
3. Select the IP option (globe symbol) in the toolbar
4. In the Protocol pull-down, select HP Directjet - Socket
5. Enter the printer's IP address in the Address box
6. Select the correct driver in the Print Using pull-down
7. Click the Add button
Hope that works for you!

Trouble connecting HP Laserjet 5M to iMac G5

I'm having difficulty hooking up an HP Laserjet 5M to an iMac G5 directly with a crossover ethernet network cable at a friend's house. I've tried resetting the ip address in the control panel of the HP printer, and then adding the printer on the iMac with the print and fax preferences box, selecting the IP tab, selecting HP Jetdirect-Socket, adding the ip address of the printer, and finally selecting the Laserjet 5M driver.
The iMac (running 10.5.8) is connected to the internet via AirPort, and checking the Network settings, the ip address of the iMac is 192.168.1.75. I've set up the ip address of the Laserjet several times in the range of 192.168.1.XXX, and matched the ethernet network settings manually to match on the iMac. Nothing seems to work, so any help with the settings would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping I haven't bit off more than I can chew in setting up the printer to the iMac with a network connection. Any step by step instructions would be really appreciated, thanks in advance!

You may need a Gefen DVI to Mini DP Converter. Although my G5 (In my opinion) is relatively new, it needed this adapter.
When I first tried to hook it up, I very carefully followed the instructions that come with the adaptor. That did not work as the screen picture was broken and continuously scrolled. I took it in to my local Genius who determined that the adapter is made for single processors, and the G5 is a dual processor. According to the genius, if you turn the monitor on before you power on the G5; the G5 will search for its old processor and will not properly recognize the new one. If you power the computer first and then the monitor, the G5 will recognize it as a new model and all will be fine.
I'n not sure I have the explanation correct, but I do have to power the computer first before the monitor.
Hope this helps solve your problem, even if it costs $90+.

Oracle DB sessions on Linux and Windows

Actually I am confused the way session memory is allocated on 32 bit windows and linux OS.
Windows is a thread based architecture where all user sessions are treated as threads of oracle.exe process. The addressable space is 4GB and oracle.exe can use up to 3GB in case you use /3GB switch in boot.ini file. It means that combined size of SGA ,PGA and other memory structures can not be more than 3GB. When a session gets connected with a database a PGA is allocated. It means that memory required by database sessions also comes from the 3GB limit. If your memory usage goes beyond 3GB you wont be able to connect new sessions with database or you would require to reduce the size of one of your SGA components.
Linux is a process based architecture where each user session is treated as a separate process and has its own addressable space. Even on 32bit linux the addressable space is 4GB i.e. 2GB for process and 2GB for kernel. It means we need to accommodate our SGA and PGA in the 2GB limit (there are ways to increase the size of SGA but let assume we are doing nothing to raise the 2GB limit).
As PGA is allocated for every session when it connects with database.
My question is how PGA memory is allocated against a database session on linux.
To further clarify my question I am stating the results of an experiment that I did on linux and windows.
On windows I set the total size of SGA to 1730M and PGA aggregate target to 1024M. I was able to able to startup the database instance without any issue. Then I started connecting sessions with the database and even ran a query doing a heavy sort in one of the sessions but after connecting 10 sessions with DB I started getting ORA-12500 TNS Listener failed to start a dedicated server process error on windows.
Then I did the same experiment on Red Hat Linux. SGA size was 1633MB and where as PGA aggregate target was only 10MB. I was unable to start instance when I set the SGA size more than 1633MB.
With that setting I was able to connect more than 200 sessions with database inspite of running query doing heavy sort in 4 sessions without getting ORA-12500 error. I was even able to connect more than 400 sessions with database after setting PGA aggregate target to 1GB on Linux.
Now my confusion is why linux was able to handle more DB sessions. I know it’s a process base model and each session is a separate process and has its own addressable space but as PGA is allocated against every session and PGA memory comes from 2GB limit then why PGA memory did not exhaust on linux. Is PGA allocated differently on linux as compared to windows?

Perhaps the problem is easier to understand if you leave PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET out of this issue completely.
The out of memory problem you had, has nothing to do with PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET setting directly. The difference in number of processes comes from architectural differences in how Oracle uses memory in windows vs unix.
On windows the SGA + ALL PGAs must fit into one 4GB address space (in practice even smaller as youve noticed). This is because there's only one process, oracle.exe. One process = one address space.
On Unix, you have many processes and every process can use portion of their own address space for PGA.
So, on windows (32bit) you run out of address space for the single oracle.exe process. On unix you dont hit this limit just because the number of processes grows (but if some process wants to use a lot of PGA memory, then they eventually run out of address space (talking about 32bit again))
On unix you probably ran into another limit - amount of total usable virtual memory (RAM+swap) available in your system
