New Printer Printing Problem

I have a home network centered around an Apple Airport Extreme BaseStation. The base station is wired to a Linksys network switch which, in turn, is wired to two computers - an Apple Dual G5 running OS X 10.4.10 and a PC running Windows XP service pack 2. I also use two Apple notebook computers that communicate using Airport cards. Until last week, I was using an HP Deskjet 842C as my printer, wired into the USB port of the Airport Base Station; with this setup, all computers could print to the printer. Last week, I bought a new HP LaserJet P1006. I first connected this printer to each computer's USB port to set up the drivers and verify that it worked. I then connected it to the USB port on the Base Station in place of the 842C. Each of the Apple computers recognized the printer and can print to it. However, I cannot get the Windows machine to print to it. I have Bonjour for Windows loaded, after I added the printer with the Add Printer function, it should up in the Printer Panel. I can ping the Base Station from the Windows computer and it responds. If I unplug the new printer from the Base Station and plug it directly into the PC, it will print. But, when I reconnect it to the Base Station, nothing happens. I've tried everything suggested at the Apple Support page but that didn't help. I could find nothing at the Microsoft site. When I contacted the HP help desk, they sent me the printer set-up instructions from the Apple site.
Anyone got any ideas???

Well, i just want to pile on here to see if my info can shed any light on this problem. I bought an HP P1006 to use over an Airport Express with a Powerbook (15"/1.5Ghz/PPC G4) and an iMac (20"/2.16Ghz/Intel); both run 10.4.11. I loaded the drivers provided with the printer then tried to add the printer to my list of printers. No luck. The driver was not available through Print & Fax. I tried plugging it in via the AE and still no luck. Went to the HP site and downloaded the latest drivers. Still no good. Did a bunch of research. Did a Clean Install via Archive and Install. The printer now shows up via the USB on the PB but not via AE, AND I had to basically fake out the Print & Fax dialog by picking another closely related printer because even after all this effort, the P1006 driver still does not appear as an option. I'm ready to hurl this printer into the street and run back and forth over it with my car (could be some anger management issues here). I have an HP1012 that's about two years old on my system (listed below) that works well, but this P1006 is driving me nuts. HP - I hope you're scanning these forums for information about your printers. You ain't what you sued to be, I'm sorry to say. Since you're able to stamp these things out for about 4 cents in Asia I think your QA has really suffered.
If anyone has any new developments in this saga, I'd love to know about it.

    Peter,
    deggie gave you that link so you'd know that airprint is a reduced-options print system, designed for mobile devices (not Macs), and you need to use the specific airprint driver on the Mac when adding the printer if you want Airprint, no-options printing. Otherwise, select the "non-airprint" driver when you add the printer.

  • Have an iBook G4, 1.5 gigs ram, need 10.5 to run new HP printer, should I anticipate any problems?  Where should I look for 10.5?

    I have an older iMac G4 running OSX 10.4.11.  I need to upgrade to 10.5 to run new drivers for new HP printer.  Any upgrade problems to anticipate, and where is best place to find 10.5 software?

    Hi Don, & welcome.
    Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
        *  Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
    minimum system requirements
        * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    You have to call Apple & likely ask for a Product Specialist to get it, if they still have it! Helps to tell them you have an iPad/iPhone & you can't run 10.6.
    There are workarounds if the 867MHz is the only hangup...

  • Print quality problems on Fuji Xerox printers when printing from ArchiCAD and/or Preview.

    Hello,
    We experience major print quality problems when printing directly from Graphisoft's ArchiCAD, Nemetscheks Vectorworks and from Apple's Preview.
    Basically we see various artefacts on our printed drawings, e.g. line thicknesses change and hatched patterns / fills are reproduced with patches where the lineweights and clours change completely... which is not acceptable.
    This affects the following Fuji Xerox printer models on both 10.6.x and 10.7.x with the latest FJX PPDs:
    ApeosPort C5540I
    Xerox LF6605 MF
    The workarounds for us are to either print PDFs from Adobe Acrobat Reader or via the rather dated Accxess Tools, besides that we prefer at times to print directly from a given Software it is also not always possible to generate a PDF and print it from Acrobat Reader... especially since the latest Adobe Reader update to its print dialogue makes printing from it extremely tedious - in fact we are considering going back to 9.5.2
    Obviously, we have approached FJX Tech Support and are awaiting a reply - however we are disappointed that this is happening on relatively new equipment and wonder if anybody else has already found a solution.

    The symptoms you mention could be related to the FJX engine and Acrobat is masking this fault. To test, you can create a Postscript file from the print dialog of ArchiCAD or VectorWorks and then download this to the Apeos RIP. If this produces the same result as when using the printer driver from the applications, then it would indicate that the engine is not capable of handling the data being sent to it from these applications.

  • Print Cartridge Problem: Tricolor - HP Officejet J4680 All In One

    I am seriously going to have an anxiety attack. I run a business from home & I HAVE to have a printer. I just spent $50 on new ink cartridges. My printer was working fine for the last week, and then tonight I have this error message:
    Print cartridge problem: [Tri Color] . Refer to device documentation to troubleshoot
    SO I reset the printer, shut it on and off, cleaned the cartridge and the printer, switched out the new cartridge with the old one ~ same problem. Over and over.
    I called HP and they said that since my printer is out of warranty they can't help me unless I purchase a new warranty plan. What horrible customer service. This printer is a product of HP and I should be able to get help regardless of when the warranty expired.
    This is so frustrating. If I can't get help, I think I would rather buy a new printer of a different brand instead of paying for a warranty after I just spent 50 bucks on ink. GRRR!

  • Connecting to the printer, driver problem

    I'm trying to connect to the printer (hp business inkjet1100) that's connected to a computer running xp (pro sp3) from my laptop running vista (home prem 64x). That just seems confusing reading that so: (printer)>>>(xp/desktop)<<<(vista/laptop). I already have a network set up and can share file with no problems, so I thought it'd be easy to connect to this printer. I was wrong.
    I try to connect to the printer by going to control pannel>printers>add printer>networked printer>printer's name after making it share on the xp computer (the name showed up on the vista computer so there's no problem there). Then vista tried to connect to the printer (bless it's heart) but had a problem (no suprise) it couldn't find a driver and wanted me to manually find the .inf file. No problem I'll just download the driver for the hp website, right? Wrong.
    Apparently there are no drivers for my printer for windows vista, however there is a workaround. You can use the drivers for the 1000 series printer and basic functions should work (hopefully that includes printing). The problem is that the workaround tells me to manually set up the printer (port, driver, etc) and then reconnect the printer to the computer (the problem being the printer isn't connected to the computer in the first place).
    Now I consider myself pretty good with computer and able fix most problems without help (and unfortunatlly end up helping plenty of the family with their problems), but this is just annoying. So I decide it's time to call in the experts (from india).
    I choose the live chat becuase it always seems faster and I haven't yet had one that would play me music while I wait (some may consider this a positive thing). The problem is that I have to find my serial number and product number. I copy down the 2 easily labled numbers, but that isn't the right combonation. So I search for "finding product number" and I get a page just like what I search for (finally some luck). After clicking on printers I get to a page called "Finding Your Product Name." At this point I give up on the hp website and just write down every number on the back of the printer. Finaly the stars align and I get to start chatting with a person. A couple of auto messages pop up and then he asks me to confirm the information I just entered (if it was wrong how did I get into the live chat?) and then continues to inform me that my warrenty has expired and it'll be $25 for support. I ask him if there is any other type of support and he says that the most he can do (probono) is give me a link to a webpage on the hp site (I've been there believe it or not), I thank him for his time and move on. Hopefully the expired warrenty doesn't matter here (but if it does just ignore that part it was a total lie just to see if you'd really help a guy without a warrenty (to test if you were really good people or just .....))
    Thanks in advance for your time

    The following worked for me, even allowing me to manually select the driver
    Alternative method 1. 1. Click on the Windows icon>>Start Search>>Type printers and press enter. 2. Click on 'Add Printer'. 3. Click on 'Add a local printer'. 4. Click on 'Create a new port:'. 5. Do not change the 'Type of port:'. By default it is selected as 'Local Port'. Let it remain the same. 6. Click on 'Next'. 7. In the small 'Port name:' window, type the following under 'Enter a port name:'
      NOTE: The names should be exactly the same. They are case sensitive.
      \\computer name\printer name   
      For instance: If computer name is 'John' and printer name is 'HPprinter', you have to type the exact name with all the characters including spaces. Hence in this case it would be the following:
    \\John\HPprinter
    8. Click on OK.  9. Click on Next and complete the Wizard. (It will now install the printer and driver) I used the 7400 series driver for my 7550 but it works.10.

  • Windows 8/8.1: Printer Offline Problems

    Windows 8/8.1: Printer Offline Problems
    Are you getting an error that your network or wireless printer is offline when you try to print?
    When you print to your network printer, does it fail, and when you check the printer status it says Offline?
    Do you have problems printing to your wireless printer after your PC has been asleep?
    If you answered YES to any of the above questions, then you have a problem with your network printer being offline.  After some investigation into this problem, we recommend updating windows.  Run Windows update to check that your version of Windows 8 is up to date.
    There are a few windows updates that may help with this problem
    1)    Install this Microsoft patch to make sure this private-public-private network issue does not reoccur. It is part of the April 2014 Windows Update package for Windows 8.1 and Server2012 R2 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2919355).
    2)      Install this Microsoft patch for the WSD service.  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3000461
    If this does not help, then please follow the steps list below which will give you a Workaround that may help with this problem.
    Assign the printer a static IP address
    An IP address is an Internet network address that the computer can use to communicate with the printer. Enter a static IP address to make sure that the wireless connection remains stable. Follow these steps to assign the printer a static IP address.
    Get the printer IP address.
    Press the Wireless button on the printer control panel to view the network settings.
    Access the Network menu on the printer control panel.
    Print a Network Configuration Page or Wireless Test Report page.
    Once you have the printer's IP address, open a new web browser window or tab.
    Type the IP address in your web browser's address bar, and then press Enter.
    Make sure that you type the IP address into the browser's address box. If you type it into a tool bar search box, the EWS will not open.
    If the message 'There is a problem with this website's security certificate' appears in the web browser when you try to open the embedded web server (EWS), or when you navigate within the EWS, click ' Continue to this website (not recommended)'.
     note:
    Choosing 'Continue to this website (not recommended)' will not harm your computer while you navigate within the EWS for your printer. If you encounter this error outside of your printer's EWS, your computer could be at risk.
    If the browser fails to open the EWS after you click 'Continue to this website (not recommended)', refresh the browser window.
    The Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the printer opens and confirms that the printer is on the same network as the computer.
    In the EWS, click the Network tab.
    In the Wireless section, click the Network Address (IP) or IPv6 configuration, depending on your network setup.
    Click Manual IP, and then click Suggest a Manual IP Address. A manual IP address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway displays.
    After the manual IP address populates, click Manual DNS Server.
     note:
    Keep a record of the manual IP address for reference.
    On the Network Configuration Page you printed earlier, locate the DNS Server addresses, type the DNS addresses in the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields, and then click Apply.
    If the DNS addresses are not listed on the Network Configuration Page, or if you have trouble accessing the network or Internet with the original DNS addresses, use one of the following methods to obtain DNS addresses.
    Method one: Use publicly available DNS server addresses
    Configure the printer using publicly available DNS server addresses. To find available DNS server addresses, search online for 'public DNS servers'.
    After you find public DNS server addresses, type the addresses in the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields, and then click Apply.
    Method two: Get the network DNS information via your computer
    Select your operating system, and then use the following directions to obtain the DNS server addresses.
    Right-click the Start button () or the lower left corner of the screen, click Run, type cmd, and then press Enter.
    When the command window opens, type ipconfig /all, and then press Enter. Information about the computer's network displays.
    Scroll to and locate the DNS Server addresses.
    In the EWS, type the DNS addresses in the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields, and then click Apply.
    Print a test page to make sure that the printer's IP address is the same as you assigned.
    Right-click the Start button () or the lower left corner of the screen, click Search, type HP and click your printer in the results. Click Utilities, and then click Update IP address to update the address in the software.
    Adding a Wireless Network Printer using Control Panel
    Go to Control Panel and choose Devices and Printers
    Click on Add Printer
    The PC will search the local network and display the network printers.
    Choose the printer and select Next
    The system will then try and auto select a compatible driver
    Select the current driver and Click Next
    The system will then ask for a name for the printer. The user can change the name and then click Next
    The User can then choose to share the printer
    The user can select to make this new printer the default and then click Finish.
    The new printer is now setup but this printer may be using the In OS driver (Class) rather than the HP Full Function driver.
    To change the printer to use the HP Full Function driver follow the following instructions. I would recommend changing the driver to the HP Full Function driver as the User can then use features such as Custom paper sizes.
    Go back into Control Panel and choose devices and Printers, right click on the newly created printer and choose Printer Properties
    Choose the Advanced Tab
    Click on the driver section drop down and choose the Driver for the printer that does not have the words Class driver after it.
    Click apply and then OK and the driver will be changed to the HP Full Function driver for the printer.
    The user should try this configuration and see if they still experience problems.
    Please Note:
    DO NOT Remove the Original Printer Icon from Devices and Printers as the HP Printer Assistant will stop working.

    I work for HP

    I have the printer offline problem. It started when I ran out of toner. I have now installed a new toner cartridge.
    Your solution does not help me because I have tried to install Win8.1 and it failed.
    I would just reinstall my printer but I have a long list of items in my print queque and I don't want to lose them.
    Is there another solution? 
    Or is there a way I can save the print queue?

  • Officejet Pro L7590 Print Quality Problems - Black/Yellow Printhead

    Officejt Pro L7590 All-In-One
    Running on Windows 7 64 bit, USB connected to computer
    Approx 2.5 yrs old; has printed 30,000 pages.
    Issue:  Black/Yellow printhead replaced about 500-1000 pages ago; new unit only tested as "Fair" in diagnostics, even though it was fresh outta the box.  Print Quality good.
    About two weeks ago, printer refused to print, flashing ambler "!", etc., error message regarding black/yellow printhead.
    Ordered replacement ($71 again -- ouch!  Whole printer only cost $199 30 months ago).Again, new unit only "fair" in diagnostic (original Cyan/Magenta printhead still reads as "good"). 
    New printhead required much cleaning and aligning, and now prints with large gaps on a regular basis down the page.  Talked to tech guy @ Staples where i bought it; his only "helpful" suggestion was that most people just toss the printers the first time the printheads go bad.
    Print heads are separately warranted.
    My questions:
    (1)  What else is there that's screwing up my print quality,a nd is it fixable?
    (2)  Can i get my $ back on the two printheads that didn't fix the printer's problems?

  • Epson Print CD problem

    It appears at some time in the past few months a problem with directly printing to CD/DCDs on Epson printers has developed. It occurs on older 10.2, 10.4x and the new intel based software. My G5 running 10.4.8 was working fine with a R300 epson, when suddenly a few moths ago the CD printing would not work with the Print CD software. It gave an error message that the CD/DVD tray is open. I though the printer CD tray maechanism was busted so I bought a new R340: same problem. Resinstalled software, deleted software, reinstalled origional 10.4 OS. Epson says that the error message you get now when you attempt to print (the epson printer driver dealing with CD Printing is not installed) is "normal" you should click OK, next screen click manual print upper right, settings-page attributes, format-pick your printer, paper size-A4 (this is critical there are two A4 choices you must pick the plain A4). Click OK. make sure your printer is still selected. in copies and settings pick media type and then pick CD/DVD. You can now save this as a preset.
    If you uninstall the software make sure that you delete the Epson folder in applications, the epson printer utility in utility folder, The epson files in the home users/preferences folder, ultility/ printer delete epson folder. empty trash restart computer, reinstall software, go to printer setup in utiltity folder and locate and add your printer

    thank you thank you thank you! I've been pulling my hair out with my Epson R1800 print to CD issue (no driver etc...) called epson an hour later they were no help... this post gave me the info to try that DID allow me to print on my CD/DVD's.
    I know this was an old post, but it was a NEW problem for me - so again - thanks!

  • Deskjet 3520e all in one printer network problems

    Hi All.
    I have a brain teaser for the technical types out there hoping someone can shed some light on a weird sort of problem.
    History: All has been fine with my g6 Pavillion latop 64bit W8 and 3520e all in one printer and working as always very well.
    Oct 16th 2014 My broadband service went down and after many communictions with ISP eventualy received (Nov 4th) and installed a new "super hub modem".
    OK so far, Managed to connect laptop via wireless router and connect to internet etc., however . . . I cannot get my printer to network as before, I can use it via USB port but if I try to network it, The Cyan ink cartridge reports as being broken or damaged even though 3/4 full and will not allow printing, but when connect via USB port the Cyan ink cartridge registers normal and will print as expected.
    Has anyone else come across this problem?
    If I go down the route of uninstalling and reinstallin the Printer software is there a set order in which to do so?
    In the list of programs these four are shown. .

    HP Deskjet 3520 series Help
    HP Deskjet 3520 series Product Improvement Study
    HP Deskjet 3520 series Setup Guide.
    I would like very much to get back to network printing if at all possible.
    The router IP address is 192.168.1.3
    The printer IP address is 192.168.0.1
    I have been led to believe that as the addresses are so close this shouldnt be the cause.
    I must add that in the past I have had occasional printer software problems which I was unable to resolve without help from the technical centre and I would prefer not to restart the installation if at all possible.
    Your comments would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Un1corn.

    Hi @Un1corn 
    What exactly happens when you try to convert from USB to Wireless and configure the printer to the Virgin Media Super Hub? Do you get an error message of some sort?
    Maybe there is a firewall on the Super Hub. Do you have the model number for this device? I can look up some information to see what could be casing the issue.

    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

  • Why do I get "error" on all print attempts after installed a new HP print driver?

    I installed a new HP print driver today and now I get an "error" message on ALL print jobs - even to printers I have used without problems for months.  Any idea what got changed on my Mac?

  • Print selection problem

    when i select a page to be print from my pc the page select in

    Hello. I feel your pain and frustration with the print selection problem in safari, especially in Snow Leopard. I have spent hours trawling help pages and forums etc. BUT YEE HAA (sorry got a bit excited, but it really was hours) I found the answer. So here goes.
    Click on Safari
    Scroll down to services then slide to right
    Scroll down to services preferences and click
    Scroll down to the Text section
    If you Tick the Text box it will choose all options for you. Or if you don't want all options in the Text list, then untick Text box and tick options you do want.
    BUT for your print selection problem make sure you tick NEW TEXT EDIT WINDOW CONTAINING SELECTION.
    Then when you want to select something in a web page you want to print (including pictures etc) then highlight it, then Right click. And low and behold, in the list is NEW TEXT EDIT WINDOW CONTAINING SELECTION. Click that, Then press cmd+p and your printing.
    I really hope that helps with your problem
    I can now go to sleep.
