Mac won't add HP LaserJet 1022

Hello,
I have HP LaserJet 1022 printer and it used to work fine on my Mac OS X 10.5.8 until I accidentally (stupidly I should say) deleted it from my printers list (clicked "minus" button in Print&Fax). Since then, I just can't add this printer to my Mac and I tried many things. I have my drivers installed. When I click + in Print&Fax, the Default window is empty and there is no HP printer on the list. What do I do? Hope you can help.
The printer is USB connected.

Hey , Thanks for getting back to me regarding this issue. At this time I am going to have you check the driver that is being utilised by your HP Laserjet on your Mac OS X 10.10 computer. There is a chance that a generic Apple Airprint driver was loaded onto your printer and is preventing you from printing. Can I please have you follow the steps below to confirm that the correct driver is being utilised.
1. Click the Apple menu, and then click System Preferences. 2. Click Print & Scan, and then check if the name of your printer displays in the Printers list. 3. Click the name of your printer, click the minus sign (), and then delete the printer.  4. Click the plus sign (), click Add Printer or Scanner, click the name of your printer, 5. Click the Use or Print Using box, and then select the name of your printer in the pop-up menu. Ensure that the Laserjet driver is selected and not the Airprint.
  6. Click Add to add the printer to the list.  Once your HP Laserjet has been confirmed as installed with the correct HP driver, please test printing again. Please let me know if these steps resolve your printing issue. Good luck!

Mac 10.6.5 HP LaserJet 1022 printing problem persists

Hi All,
I still couldn't get my HP 1022 prints after updating to 10.6.5 where the release said it fixes some HP printer problem connected to Airport Extreme. (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4250) Mine is connected to Airport extreme too. Installed the 2.5.2 HP printer update too!!
When I print document with multiple pages, the alert LED started blinking after printer the first few pages... Sigh... I did those reset printing system procedures and restarted my Airport extreme... no dice...
Wanna ask if other HP LJ 1022 printer owner has got their problem solved or not.
Thanks
Bill

Hello,
*BUGS IN UPDATE OS-X 10.6.5*
Updating new or older Intel Mac's to snow leopard to 10.6.5 will result in problems
with several HP printers (both wired and wireless with airport express basestion).
It doesn't mather if you also update the HP-printersoftware to version 2.5.2.
The problem exists...
After printing only one page, all the lights on the printer itself are flashing
(see also youtube video from German Apple users: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0s7gZYA2Kj4)
No more than one page is printing.
And the printer won't print anymore, untill you turn it off and back on (hard reset).
SOLUTION
Connect the HP printer (for instance the HP 1022) wired to your Apple Intel computer.
Choose the Gutenprint driver (in stead of the HP driver 1.3.0.261) when adding a (standard)
printer in System preferences.
The printer will now work fine.
Unfortunately the Gutenprint driver won't work in combination with with wireless printing
to a HP printer with a airport express basesation.
*EPSON printing problems*
Other printer problems are reported with professional Epson large format printers.
Several Epson drivers won't work in OS-X 10.6.4 and in 10.6.5
Not directly and not tru a RIP printing server (Windows or Mac).
The temporary solution is choosing a general post script printer driver,
in stead of the Epson driver, when adding a printer in system preferences.
Good luck!

Messages for Mac won't add my phone number

I've been using Messages on Mountain Lion for months with no problems. I added my phone number to the Messages app in account settings as soon as it was available and the app was functioning perfectly until about when I updated to iOS 7. Now my phone number is no longer included in the "You can be reached for messages at:" section in the account settings in Messages. When I select "add email" and type my phone number it just disappears when I hit return. Even if I don't hit return and just check the box next to it, eventually it just goes away. I have tried adding it every way I can imagine (adding +1, adding "()", etc.), and still nothing. I have also tried signing out of Messages on my Mac and iMessage on my iPhone, then signing back in, and still nothing. I'm at a complete loss here. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

I have been using the beloved 1022 for years now, and have managed to keep it going with Gutenprint etc.
But a few days ago it started printing blank. All the drivers I can find online don't get it working.
I've tried it on Yosemite and the previous OSX, nothing.
Please can anyone suggest anything?

Hi @mattymoo ,
I see that you are experiencing issues printing with the Laserjet 1022. I would like to help you out today.

On the Apple menu bar, click Go, click Applications and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left.
Click Verify and then Repair Disk Permissions.
Restart the computer..
Reset the Printing System:
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Click the Apple icon and then click System Preferences.
Click Printers & Scanners.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left white side panel, then click Reset printing system.
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system.
Then click the + sign to add the driver, highlight the printer. (you might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name) Then click on the Add button.

Hp laserjet 1022 windows 7 (64 bit) won't install printer, what can i do?

1. HP LaserJet 1022 Printer
2. Windows 7 64-bit
3. No Error Message
4. The only changes made to the system are security upgrades from Windows Updater. This is a new computer and the old one was running XP.
I have tried removing the printer, downloading newer software (lj1020-HB-pnp-WIN64-en) and trying to install it, adding the printer through windows and still the printer will not work. The cd version will run until it asks you to plug in the printer and then nothing happens. I even tried leaving it running overnight to see if it would find it and install, but nothing happened. This printer is a workhorse for me and I would like to keep it running, any suggestions on getting this printer recognized and running again?
This question was solved.

LaserJet 1022 MAC Snow Leopard 10.6.7

Since upgrading from G5 to Intel iMac I have problems printing on the LaserJet 1022. Other printers work OK.
* After printing, the print queue doesn't clear the printed document.
* Only 1 page prints out of a multi-page Word document.
* After printing a page, the printer lights flash in the sequence TOP & BOTTOM LIGHTS together, then CENTRE LIGHT, then TOP & BOTTOM LIGHTS together etc etc
The only solution seems to be to manually delete the document from the print queue, then turn OFF then ON the printer if its lights are flashing.
Is the software not working?
Has the LaserJet broken down? How?
Is the LaserJet not able to work with OS 10.6.7?
Anyone with thoughts?

Thanks for your reply to my problem. Although your general advice was theoretically correct, the problem appears to be that the latest version of HP’s driver is buggy, so I wasn't able to fix things in the way you suggested--indeed your best endeavours kept me in a loop that didn't work.
I have solved the problem by reinstalling an old HP driver “HP LaserJet 1022 Series OS X Universal Binary Full Solution” and that is HP Version 1.2.0.
As soon as I installed 1.2.0 the printer worked. As soon as I accessed HP Version 1.3.x the problem recurred.
This solution came from a posting on http://automatica.com.au/2011/04/fix-printing-to-the-hp-laserjet-1022-series-under-10-6-snow-leopard...
Automatica also gives a link to HP’s site to download the 1.2.0 drive, which is HP LaserJet 1022 Series OS X Universal Binary Full Solution HP LaserJet 1022 Printer – HP Customer C...

HP LaserJet 1022 Printing Problems - Please Post Here

Sorry, I hate to create a new thread, but tracking so many different threads on this one issue is becoming problematic for me. So with that being said, if you are still having a problem with printing to a LaserJet 1022 after the full uninstall I detailed in the FAQ thread followed by installing version 2.2 of the HP driver package, then let me know here. And specifically I want to know is which device you have, how your device is connected, the print driver version, and what apps are giving you problems. In my own personal testing, here is what I have found:
USB direct connect - OK, I have yet to run into a problem here.
USB connected to an Airport Extreme N - OK, I have yet to run into a problem here.
USB connected to an Airport Express G - Paused problem. I got print job/page out and then the printer paused and would not resume. I don't have a functioning work around here yet, but I'm trying.
So if I were going to fill out my own form, it would look like this:
Printer: LaserJet 1022n
Connection: USB connected to an Airport Express G (Firmware version 6.3)
Driver Version: 1.1.0.182
Apps: All
Problem Description: Printer queue goes into a Paused mode and won't resume
And to get you started, I have left a blank template at the end of this post.
Also please make sure to include whether you have the 1022, 1022n, or 1022nw AND how it is connected to your Mac. If users of the 1020, what to chime in on this thread that is OK. Anyone else, please post in the FAQ thread or a different device specific thread. As the 1022 seems to be the most problematic at the moment, I'd like to track this down as quickly as possible.
Just trying to help.

My HP LaserJet 1022 does not work with my new computer with Windows 7. Can you help?

I just purchased an HP p6803w CPU that runs on Windows 7. When I try to connect my HP LaserJet 1022 it won't work. Apparently, I need a compatible driver downloaded. When I tried to download drivers from the HP website, it appears one of two did not install. Help! I am an online college student and desperately need my printer to work.
This question was solved.

From your previous post, it sounds like at one point you are getting the pop up that says "installing device driver software," correct?
If you are not getting this pop up in the lower right hand corner of you screen then I need you to:
1. Try a different USB port on your computer. Some computer USB ports are "touchy" and if you try a different one it will work. It all depends on the make of the computer.
2. Try a different USB cable. You might have a bad USB cable. Also, be sure that the USB cable isn't longer than 3ft long.
3. Go into your device manager and see what printers have been installed. They should be listed under "printers" or "other devices" You might have to go to view and check show hidden devices to see these on your computer. If there is a yellow triangle or question mark on this device then you have a conflict with your computer. This is something in your computer causing this and not the software download.
Keep me posted.

Printing interrupted (with HP LaserJet 1022)

Hello,
I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Since doing so, my printer (a HP LaserJet 1022, bought with my Mac from Apple) has been working only intermittently.
If I print a document, from any application, of more than one page, it'll only print the odd pages and will stop some way through printing those odd pages and the lights on the top of the printer will start flashing red. (I have checked the settings and they're set to print all pages, not just the odd ones.) The only way to move on is to switch the printer off and on again.
This means that 1) I can only print one page at a time and 2) that every few pages or so, I have to switch the printer off and back on.
Does anyone know what's going wrong or what I can do to fix the problem? I thought the SL installer updated my printer driver.
Thanks, in advance, for your help.
Jonathan.

HP has simply abandoned the 1022 printer on Snow Leopard. For a time there was a HP software engineer posting here, gathering information from users, advising us that they were working on the 1022 driver. He even sent a beta driver to several people with specific problems. Then he suddenly disappeared and we haven't seen or heard from him since. My 1022 works fine with the Snow Leopard supplied driver, except for the manual duplex option which no longer exists. Others report that their 1022 only prints every other page or stops after a couple of pages. There is a very long thread here about the 1022 problems. The HP guy's name was Andrew but, as I said, he vanished. 1022 owners were starting to get testy and frustrated so maybe he just got tired of trying to help.
As for me, I will never buy an HP printer again because of this abandonment.

LaserJet 1022 on Windows 8 64-bit driver problem

Hello!
After I've upgraded my computer and installed Windows 8 my printer LaserJet 1022 won't work - the drivers fail to install.
Operating system: Windows 8 64-bit
Printer: HP LaserJet 1022 connected via USB
I 'm trying to install latest drivers for 64-bit system (driver version 2012.918.1.57980 [18.09.2012]) and getting an error message that the driver cannot be installed because of a policy blocking NT4.0 drivers.
In the device manager the printer is listed in the 'Other devices'.
I have read forum topics on Windows 8 drivers installation but none of the solutions worked for me.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Pavel.

Hi @debblong ,
I see that you are having issues installing the printer on Windows 8. I would like to help you resolve this issue.
To access the Start in Windows 8 to do the steps provided in the previous post, in desktop mode, press the Windows key and R at the same time, to show the run command line. Then you can type in %temp% to access the files to delete them.
For the printer not being detected, we can try a few things.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet and turned on, and the USB cable is connected directly to one of the back USB ports on the computer if using a Desktop, if you are using a Laptop try another USB port.
The USB cable shouldn't be longer then 6 feet.
Is the cable a 2.0 or 3.0 cable? How to determine whether a USB 3.0 device is operating at SuperSpeed?
Is the USB port on the computer 2.0 or 3.0?
Follow these steps in this document to get to the device manager to check for any printer entries.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Then click on Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
In the list click on Universal Serial Bus controllers and look for USB printing support, (make sure any other printers are turned off or disconnected) right click and uninstall it. If you have any others with exclamation mark or other devices in the list, delete them also.
Let me know what it showed in the device manager.
Then click on Action, across the top of the window and scan for new hardware.
If the printer wasn't listed at all in the Device Manager, try another USB port on the computer and another USB cable.
Restart the computer and the printer also to see if the printer will be detected.
If the printer still isn't recognized, if you have another computer, connect the printer to it to see if it is recognized.
Just to rule out a USB port on the computer, USB cable or hardware issue with the USB port on the printer.
Here is the link to the driver page, if you need it. HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a great day!

Hp laserjet 1022 driver not available

I am running 10.8.2 on a MacBookPro. After the recent update of the OS my HP Laserjet 1022 stopped functioning. In Mountain Lion, the HP drivers are meant to be installed by the OS. However all my attempts to update the driver software from within System Preferences, to to install a new printer have failed. I always get an error message saying that the appropriate software was not available on the server. Anyone have any ideas on hwo to fix this, or where to get driver software that I can manually install?

Power cycle both devices and try by downloading manually necessary drivers:

Hp laserjet 1022 printing problems

Hi,
I use at my office a HP laserjet 1022 printer. Is used in a wireless router.
I have a problem with printing:
When i print a document from Google Docs, after the document was printed, the printer comes offline and all 3 leds start to flash. This flashing repairs only if i restart the printer.
When i print from my mac, all works good, other sites also works. The problem is, i use google docs for my work, so i cant exclude this.
I use a MPB mid 2012 with OS X Mountain Lion installed.
Anybody can help me?
Many thanks,
Regards,
szabomatrix

Hello Szabomatrix,
Thanks for the post. I ran across this thread that may address this issue. Just curious, with your case, do you experience these symptoms when printing PDF's/Adobe? Good Luck!

Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier)

I just got off the phone with an AppleCare agent. My iBook OS 10.4 wouldn't start - it just went to a blue screen. I'm happy to say that the agent got everthing working again and said that she would email me an article that would help if it ever happens again. She emailed me "Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.3.9 or earlier)" I have 10.4, is this article any use for me or was I emailed the wrong articel. Is there an article "Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X 10.4 or later)"????

Thank you for yoiur response. I'll click on that link and add my input..
Don't be put off by the title. The document's just as
valid for Tiger, especially if those are the same
steps that fixed your problem. The article was
revised Feb 2006 and someone forgot to update it to
mention Tiger. Go to
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464
, click on the It's good, but... link and
tell them it should be updated to include a reference
to Tiger.

Iphoto 9.5.1 won't add picasa to the export list

I have always been able to get picasa as one of the export photos options in the past versions of iphoto. Now it won't add that option. I re-downloaded the latest version of picasa web uploader for mac and restarted both apps but I just can't get it done. It would be ridiculous to have to export a whole album to another place on my disk just so I can upload.
Does anyone know why this isn't working now? or how to get it to work?

iPhoto offers a plug-in architecture for export plug ins. DIfferent folks then make plug-ins for that architecture. You'll need to ask the makers of the picasa one why thay haven't updated that plug-in in years.

Netbook wireless printing to HP LaserJet 1022

I have a HP LaserJet 1022 connected (USB port) to desktop computer running Windows XP pro and it is working ok. I also have a laptop also running XP that I can print from using a local network with a rooter. Just bought an ASUS netbook 1201N the uses the same network with a wireless connection. My problem is the netbook will not print to the LaserJet even tho it shows up as a printer. The error message I get is “Error 0x000006ba”. Have tried several things suggested on the web. Need help!
Thanks, RB Curry

The Sharing is through Microsoft and not an HP function. This particular configuration where you are shared on XP USB and wired to a router, then trying to connect via a wireless laptop is not an HP supported configuration.
You can try to add the printer local - Devices & Printers, Add Printer, and choose a local printer then add the shared name (if it is listed).
As stated, this is not a supported scenerio, but that is not to say that it is not possible.
Thank you,
