My Ricoh Aficio MP 2500 only prints postscript stuff when connected to my OS X Yosemite

My Ricoh Aficio MP 2500 only prints postscript stuff when connected to my OS X Yosemite. When printing one page of something, ten pages or so of machine language will print out.  It is on my home network and the IP address is correct.
Thanks for any help.

This can also happen when you use a Postscript driver but the printer does not support Postscript. According to the Ricoh Australia web site the MP2500 supports PCL standard while Postscript is optional. So it would be safe to assume that you don't have the Postscript kit and that's why you are getting all those pages with Postscript commands.
One thing you can do is remove this printer from Printers & Scanners and add again, this time selecting the Generic PCL Laser printer in the Use menu. Note that this printer is set to 300dpi by default, but you can change the resolution to 600dpi via the printer menu so that you get better looking prints.

    Ricoh Aficio SP 240DN cannot print after Yosemite installed

    I have this problem too.
    I've installed the most recent drivers for these printers and unfortunately it's still not compatible with Yosemite.
    I guess all we have to do is wait until Ricoh/Lanier brings out an updated driver for us

    Check the Energy Saver and Screen Saver settings, sounds like you have Energy Saver kicking-in before Screen Saver.

  • Can't see printer or shares when connected via Internet Sharing

    I recently switched from a 2006 to a 2008 Mac Pro. Rather than do a migration I simply took the hard drives from the old machine and put them in the new one.
    I then upgraded to Mountain Lion.
    I use Internet Sharing to share my Mac Pro's Ethernet connection via wifi, but the other Macs can't see the Mac Pro's printer or shares when connected in this way. They can access the internet. If I connect a machine via the LAN rather than Internet Sharing, the shares and printer are visible.
    This worked fine on Lion on the old machine. Any ideas?

    Seems that the issue is something to do with connecting via WPA2. When I set Internet Sharing to use WEP (by option-clicking the security menu), I'm then able to see the network shares and the printer.

  • I have a lot on books on my Kindle account. I have downloaded the app onto my IPAD but can only access my books when connected to WIFI, i would like to read them offline. Have I missed a download step. Thanks for any help you can give.

    I have a lot of books on my Kindle/Amazon account. I have downloaded the Kindle app onto my IPAD mini by can only access my books when connected to WIFI, how can I read them off-line?

    Yes, you've missed the download step.
    Open the Kindle app and navigate to your Library. There is a tab at the bottom that says Cloud | Device. Tap the Cloud tab and tap the books you want to download to the device. You will see a progress indicator during the download. Once it's done, read away!

  • Acrobat 8.1.4 only prints 1 page when I select "all"

    Hi all,
    I'm hoping you can help me. Just spent 27 minutes on hold with Adobe tech support and gave up.
    I have an iMac running OS 10.5.8 and had successfully used other versions of Acrobat. I bought a ScanSnap printer and it was bundled with Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.1.4. Installation seemed to go fine, but now when I try to print a multi-page document, it only prints one page, even when I check "all" on the print menu.
    Also, when I try to click on print prevue, it says "Prevue is not supported." That's new, too.
    So far I'm not thinking this is such a great bargain, even for free! Can you help?
    Thanks,
    Kathy

    Print preview is not supported any longer. I think it is due to the fact that both use pdf technology and there may be a conflict.
    As to why it only prints one page rather than all, that is a hard one. You could try deleting the printer driver and re-installing the driver to see if that helps.

  • Photosmart c4780 is only printing half way when I print on 4x6 photo paper.

    I've having problems on my HP Photosmart C4780. When I load a 4x6 inch photo paper it pulls the paper in, starts printing, pushed the paper out, but has only printed half of my photo. 
    It looks as if it starts printing before it reaches the paper becasue the back has ink lines on it and when comparing it with what prints, to what should print, the photo looks like it starts printing at the middle and is right up against the leading edge of the photo paper.
    There are no error messages at all.
    I'm using windows 7
    the printer is connected via wireless
    I have no other problems printing 81/2X11 or from any programs.
    Any help would be great.

    i have same on photosmart 5510 wireless notebook windows 7 added a small length of blank paper to entry of photopaper and it works but why does this happen

    Hello,
    I see that we are having some issue when attempting to print in colour.
    I have done some research in to this issue and I have found a document that deals with when the Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.
    Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions or concerns.

  • IPhone 4S only powers up, works, when connected to wall power

    Brand new iPhone 4S, arrived two days ago on the model's launch day.  Few glitches, expected w/ new phone, not a big deal, worked through them, initially did restore-type installation to transfer all info from old AT&T iPhone 3GS, still w/ AT&T.  It was working fine.
    Then, connected to wall charger last night.  This morning, before disconnected from wall charger, charge showed 87%, then disconnected and screen went black.
    Phone did not, and does not, respond when unconnected.
    Connected iPhone to MacBook Pro, result is same as when unconnected, no response.
    However, when iPhone connects to wallpower, it works fine.  Powers up, all functions seem to be normal, but noted that charge now shows only 84% and it's not going up, as it should.
    I have been studying these boards today before typing this post.  Have tried the reset procedure (hold down sleep/wake + home buttons simultaneously for 30+ seconds) when iPhone is unconnected and when iPhone is connected to computer, still unresponsive.  Also tried reset procedure when connected to wall power, it eventually goes into reset mode and it eventually got to the point that it said connect to iTunes, but when I disconnect from wall power and connect to computer, it is again unresponsive.  After doing that, connected to wall power, and it powers up normally.
    With iTunes open and running, the iPhone does not appear therein when connected.  Left iPhone connected to computer all morning, no changes in nonresponsiveness.  Before last night, this was not a problem.
    Before I even starting using this iPhone, I'd put it in a nice, new OtterBox case.  It has not been dropped or mishandled or gotten wet.
    My conclusion is that there's a hardware problem that I cannot fix, and even if I had a clue what to do, I'd probably void the warranty.
    Looking for suggestions as to what to do short of calling AppleCare.  Any help will be most appreciated.

    Called AppleCare this morning, confirmed that this is a hardware problem. Getting replacement.

  • Why can i only see my music when connected to wifi

    i started to use icloud when i got the new iphone and new ipad.  but i can only see my music when i'm connected to wifi or 4g.  what can i do to use the music when no service is available.

    Under the music tab in your settings you will need to turn on cellular data, with itunes match if your not connected to the internet either through celleluar data or wi-fi it will not play the music because it is streaming from icloud. The only other way to have your music play with out connection is to actually sync them to your phone. See attached.

  • My HP LaserJet CM1415fnw Printer keeps rebooting when connected to my ethernet router.

    I bought my HP Laserjet CM1415fnw Color printer in 2013 (don't remember the exact date). The CM1415fnw printer is plugged into its own AC power outlet and has been connected to a NETGEAR Nighthawk router for the past 2 years. My network and computers have not changed in the past 3 years. About a month ago, July of 2015, the printer started rebooter itself about every few minutes. These are the things that I have tried: 1. I turned off the printer for several minutes via the power off switch located on the side of the printer. This failed to solve my reboot issue.2. I turned off the printer for over night via the power off switch located on the side of the printer. This failed to solve my reboot issue.3. I unplugged the printer from the AC power outlet for several minutes and over night. printer. This failed to solve my reboot issue.4. I turned off the printer setting "WS-Discovery" with no success. It continued to reboot.5. I turned off the printer and Unplugged the ethernet cable and phone line cable from the printer. I then turned it on. Itstayed on for hours without rebooting. I plugged the ethernet cable and it continued to stay on without rebooting for over an hour. I then plugged in the phone line cable and within a minute the printer starting rebooting again. I unplugged the phone line cable again and the printer stopped rebooting. My wife and I have been printing happily. Problem solve! NO! This past week, on July 27 2015, the printer started rebooting again. I went through the same steps above except this time whenever plugging in the ethernet cable, within and few minutes the printer would start its rebooting. Sometime between reboots it would stay up long enough to print a job. Other things that I have tried: 1. I connected the printer directly to my workstation computer via the USB port and plugged in the phone line cable. This work great for hours. I could print jobs. No rebooting. It is just not the solution the I need. I need a network printer.2. I connected the printer directly to my laptop ethernet port with phone cable connected. This worked also. So while in this configuration I took the opportunity to upgrade the Firmware from date 20120216 to 20140616. 3. I reconnected the printer to my network router and the printer started rebooting again within a few minutes. I did notice that in between reboots, with the phone line cable plugged in, anytime a phone call came in the printer immediately rebooted. I have mulitple home devices that rely on network connectivity to this printer. SO, right now this printer is offline toeveryone. I need to get this problem resolved ASAP.  I have a temporary work around item #6. But, I need a real solution. Can someone please help. My Configuration: HP LaserJet CM1415fnwFormatter Number: QD51YOP
    Serial Number: CNH8C9KRHB
    Service ID: 21334
    FIrmware Datecode: 20140616

    I wish to thank you davidzuts and muj851 for your quick response and help in this issue. I will give you the short story of my troubleshooting efforts and solution. I was able to isolate the printer reboot to my wife's computer located in another part of the house. Anytime that I connected her computer the the network the printer would start rebooting within a minute. I then uninstalled all HP printer software. I then reconnected her computer to the network. Within a minute the printer went into reboot mode. After a few install and uninstall of the HP printer soffware and drivers I took notice that the printer device for my printer still appeared after uninstalling the software and drivers. I clicked on the printer device and manually removed it. After rebooting the computer within a few minutes there was a system message stating that the device driver was being install. Reinstalling the Printer software and drivers create a new instance of the CM1415FNW Printer. Uninstalling removed all but the orignal printer device. Connected the network caused the printer to reboot. So, looked at the printer queue and found that there was a document in the queue waiting to be printed. The status of the printer showed that the document was ready for print but then the printer would reboot and the status would appear as ERROR Printing. I cancelled the print job and the document in the queue was removed. I then removed the Printer Device. When I connected my wife's computer to the network the printer did not reboot. I have reinstatlled HP Printer software for the CM1415FNW printer and everything has been working fine for the past two days. A conversation with my wife uncovered that the day all of the issues with the printer started she attempted to print a Barnes and Nobles discount coupon. Something with the printer formating codes or the B&N coupon was causing the printer to reboot. The next time this happens I will know to check the print queue. 

  • Hi I'm trying to install an HP C4180 printer as net printer through Alicegate router (Thompson technicolor). Printer works ok when connected with USB to Macbook air, but cannot be seen on the printer installation configuration. Mac OSx 10.7 (Lion)

    Hi folks.
    From this morning I'm trying to "see" an HP printer C4180 connected on the USB port of the wi-fi router (TIM Alicegate ADSL2 Wifi+N, manufacturer Technicolor).
    I installed latest drivers and checked everything is ok and works fine until printer is connected directly with USB to my Macbook Air.
    Then I connect the USB to the router and try to find the printer.
    On Alice help suggest to find it by ging to system preferences, then printers, add printer with "+", select "windows" sheet. There I can see - not always in reality, but sometimes - the "workgroup" in the left column, select, "alicegate" in second column, select, and here instead of finding the printer list there is a pop up saying that "the server version you are trying to connect to is not supported".
    Reading other forums, it may seem that the problem is Lion not yet supporting this kind of connection.
    Here a photo of the situation when the message occurs:

  • HP 6500 Wireless Printer Stopped Printing Black Ink When Connected to PC

    My printer stopped printing with black ink.  All the other colors seem to work fine.  I hooked up my Mac to test and see if that worked and it did!  I've concluded that it's something to do with the driver since it worked on my Mac, so I re-installed the driver and it still does not print black ink while trying to print from our Dell PC.  Any Ideas?

    Hello Libertyb,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand your Officejet 6500 stop printing black ink on your Windows computer. What is your operating system on your computer? Windows.
    How is this printer connected? Wireless or USB?
    What type of programs are you printing from?
    Please verify this information and I will assist you further.

  • My new ipod only lasts 2 hrs. when connected to my docking station ?

    My new 7th. generation ipod only plays for 2 hrs. when docked to my docking station.Will Apple bring out a new docking station to overcome this as I only ever play tunes using the dock.

    What is the make and model of your docking station? Shouldn't it be charging the iPod?  How is it connected? With the appropriate dock connector and lightning to 30 pin connector or via a line-in port?
