Officejet 7000 networking problems with usb printer

connected up my new officejet 7000, replacing my deskjet 1280 on my pc, running xp sp3, networked on my work network. set up as shared printer. Showing on shared printer list on network, but when I try to install network printer on another machine on network it wont have it. comes up with cant connect, name may have changed or printer lost connection to server.
anybody help?
tried reinstalling, turning off firewall etc.. all to no effect.
please help.........

Tell me about your network - router brand/model and ISP type (DSL, Cable, etc).
Is the printer also connected with USB and print sharing turned on?
I am a bit confused as to your exact setup, sorry.

  • Airport Extreme - problem with usb printer and usb disk

    I have Airport extreme with firmware 7.1. I try connect usb disk and usb printer with usb-hub to airport. I can't get disk or printer working. Also try connect only disk or printer without usb-hub to airport getting same problem. How I get disk and printer working with wireless network (windows pc computers)?
    1)
    My printer is HP PSC 1210 all-in-one ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=90764&lc=fi&cc=fi&dlc=fi&lang =fi&cc=fi&y=0&x=0 )
    - printer seems working fine after installing bonjour printer installing wizard.
    - I get error (in windows) when I try print document from word. Error only says "error printing" in status value.
    - In airport utility all seems ok. Airport see usb printer "Hewlett-Packard psc 1200 series"
    - printer protocol is RAW and driver manufacture HP (also try with microsoft driver)
    2)
    USB disk is Targa Databox II 250
    - Airport utility says "Disk needs repair. Errors were found with a disk connected to your airport base station. please connect the usb disk to your mac or pc and use disk utility or another disk application to repair the disk"
    - I have connected Targa usb disk to windows pc and run scandisk and defreg. No errors found in windows. Result..no help for airport

    I have a similar problem to your second issue. Tried connecting a Netdisk to the USB port of the Airport Extreme and it also said there was a problem with the disk. Have performed a low level format on the disk and Airport Extreme still complained the disk had a problem.
    After unplugging the disk, my route decided to stop allowing wireless connections even after rebooting. Ended up having to hard reset the Airport Extreme and reconfigure it with my old settings to work again.
    FWIW, the first Airport Extreme I purchased today only worked on 802.11a and steadfastly refused to work on b/g so had to get a replacement. I suspect Apple's quality control is not quite as good as it used to be.

  • HP Officejet 6700: A problem with the printer or ink system.

    I'm not sure what the problem is anymore since I've bought new cartridges and applied them carefully and correctly.
    My printer uses 933 for CMY and 932 for Black. Interestingly, it gives me this error when I installed the black cartridge. I don't understand why. I bought and applied the XL. Maybe it doesn't like XL?

    I have tried that and so much more. Finally, I chose to contact HP directly and was told to do a number of troubleshooting tasks (that which I've done on my own a hundred times over). She put me on a conference call with an HP Engineer and we finally deduced that it most likely is the printer. I am receiving a conditioned printer by the end of next week and sending my defective one back to them. Thank you for your help!

  • [SOLVED] Problem with usb printer HP Laserjet P1606dn

    This printer requires the instalation of a plugin for color and two-side printing.
    When I execute the commando hp-plugin in root mode, appears this:
    "No protocol specified
    hp-plugin cannot connect to X server "
    And of course, the plugin is not installed and I don't realize how to solve this problem...

    make sure you have installed hplip and the hplip-plugin from AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44646)
    after everything has been installed (cups hplip foomatic-db-engine hplip-plugin ...), run 'hp-setup -i'

  • Problems with my printer HP Officejet pro 8600 Plus + Yosemite

    Hi got problems with my printer HP Officejet pro 8600 Plus till I installed Yosemite it is not recognized so what can I do now.. No new drivers found by HP

    Thanks for this AnnRT!
    I've spent the best part of a day trying to figure this out. Everything was fine and then one day nothing worked! I have narrowed the issue down to Bonjour via WiFi as everything worked fine via USB, and via IP over WiFi.
    I've now set a static IP for the printer and things seem to be working fine again
    Thanks!

  • There is a problem with the printer or ink system.

    Will not print. Turn it off then back on; will print one document, but not the last page. Try printing only the last page, but will not print. Will not print one page documents at all. Will not print more than one document without repeating this process.
    First Error message: "There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn the printer off, then on. If you continue to get this message, contact HP." Out of warranty.

    Now that the ink cartridges are removed as instructed, the carriage will not return to the center of the access area.

  • I am unable to print a proper playlist in the jewel case format.  Lines print on top of one another.  No problem with other print formats

    I am unable to properly print a playlist in the jewel case format.  All lines bunch together.  I have no problem with other print formats.  Help please.

    If it is a USB powered external, no AC adpater, that may be the reason. Mac notebooks are known to have low powered USB ports. You can get around that with a Y USB cable to connect to 2 USB ports at the same time.

  • Printing in another room with USB printer

    Printing in another room with USB printer.
    I have modem/wireless router from my ISP (my current network), a time capsule (version 2?) not currently online, an AirPort Express, a USB photo printer (Epson 2200), a recent Retina Macbook Pro.
    I would like to print photos in a room across the house. Can I accomplish it with these tools? If so, how?
    I'd like to keep the Express unit nearest the modem/router.
    Should I set up a second network?
    If Bob Timmons is out there, I've added the express to the previous formula.
    Thank you.

    If the current AirPort Express is configured to "join" the current network there, and you can move it to the desired printer location and try things out as a test......that would give you an idea about whether buying another Express would allow printing in the remote location.
    There are some real "Ifs" here. One is whether the Express can pick up a strong enough wireless signal in the remote location. The other is whether the Epson and Express are compatible with each other, since Apple does not support all USB printers.

  • Photosmart 7520 error. there is a problem with the printer. turn printer off then on.

    I have a photosmart 7520 experiencing the following issues.
    Problem #1:   Randomly all the lights start to blink off and on and the display reads the following :  
    Error . There is a problem with the printer. Turn printer off then on.
    I cannot find any one action that triggers this to happen.
    Problem #2:  When the printer is turned on and idle,  also at RANDOM times, the printer will "Ding" followed by the  wireless light blinking. Then what sounds like the cartridges being cleaned, then a sound like the feeder spinning or the print head running full track from side to side, then ending with a "Ding" and then returning to normal.
    When this occurs, the wireless connection is disconnected then reconnected. Also this Disables the "Scan to computer" function to all the computers on the network and requires manually re-enabling all .
    From what I can tell the printer is restarting itself. 
    It is plugged directly into the wall outlet, no surge protector.
    Tech support has already run me through the clean the print head steps, escalated me up the chain, and ultimately replaced the printer with a brand new one.
    THE NEW PRINTER IS DOING ALL THE SAME THINGS AS THE PREVIOUS ONE.
    This printer is connected wirelessly to a Netgear N900 router. My computers all running Windows 7, all are on the same network and workgroup and all are running Mcafee Total Protection.
    If anyone is or has experienced the same or similar problems, I could sure use some help.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    How did you fix this?
    I replaced an HP printer recently for a new Photosmart 7520 after a complete ink container emptied into the printer.
    The old printer sometimes had difficulties switching it on and the new printer has the same problem.
    Also the wireless connection regulary drops and can only be reenabled by switching of the printer and switching it back on, only this sometimes takes more than ten minutes before a simple push on the power button is translated in a power on of the printer.
    Since the previous printer also suffered from these "power" issues, I think the problems are power related, but I have to check this first before I can say anything more about this.

  • Problems adding USB printer - "Driver not installed" - but it is

    Apparently, 10.3.9 has some problems with USB printers. For the record, I had already installed this earlier prior to the upgrade and everything worked fine - but due to crashing due to a faulty power supply - I've had to re-configure everything.
    I, and many others in this forum, have found a strange problem when trying to add a printer (And yes, other people have asked about this but I haven't seen any answers at all that are useful. The only possible solution seems to be "upgrade to 10.4" and that is unacceptable. Does Apple check these forums?).
    After clicking "add printer" in the utility, the software finds the correct printer (so obviously the physical connection to the printer is OK) and displays it with a question mark over it's icon and "driver not installed" next to it. I can't select this image or text.
    After searching for a couple of minutes, a dialogue box pops up saying "New drivers detected. Do you want to reload the browser?" (I assume the printer setup utility is the "browser"?).
    I click yes and nothing happens. No PPDs show up in the list. This happens when I select USB as well as Apple Talk from the printer-type pull-down menu.
    How can I start printing again?
    iMac G5 17" Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    iMac G5 17" Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    iMac G5 17" Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    iMac G5 17" Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    iMac G5 17" Mac OS X (10.3.9)

    First, welcome to the discussions.
    For the record, Apple does not normally respond to these Forums.
    You mention (Due to Crashing) Whenever you have an issue with your machine it can disrupt in almost any area, and is normally caused by SOMETHING.
    As of right now it would appear you might be chasing your tail.
    When you choose to upgrade your Operating System there is No Guarantee that your Printer and it's drivers will work on another completely different Operating System.
    Your best bet at this point is to drag all of your printer related folders to the trash, empty your trash, and plug your USB Printer (What KIND) into your machine directly.
    Shut your machine clear OFF for a minute or so and do the same to your printer, pull the power adapter from it.
    Now plug in your printers Power Adapter, Plug in the USB to your Printer to your computer and restart it.
    Take the Disc that came with your printer and re insert it and download the Installation Folder and any utility folder that may come with it.
    After you have done this don't try to print, Go directly to your Printer Manufactures Web site and search for the latest updates to your printer and the Operating System you are using.
    These will more often than not download to your desktop.
    You must drag these to the setup folder and or the utilities folder and then double click them to launch them. after you have completed this your printer should work.
    One other thing, If you have Classic and or OS9 on your machine you might have to do the same for OS9 Applications , and Utilities for it to print in Classic. Don

  • CUPS problems with PDF printing

    I am having all manner of problems with PDF printing.  Recently added a Lexmark MX710 and have 7 machines that were previously printing fine to an X652de a T652 as well as a Samsung CLP770.  All network printers.
    Now there are bizarre issues with PDF printing. CUPS version 1.6.1.  The MX710 will blue screen and reboot when printing one specific pdf without fail.  There are all kinds of random nonsensical results when printing from different locations.  A pdf that stalls the X and T652 with "filter error" will print from my own machine to the same printer, using the same versions of cups, .ppd file, and everything package related to cups.
    Yet other PDF files will print, while some print complete gibberish, I can't find any rhyme or reason or anything predictable about any of it other than to say printing postscript files works fine all around.
    This has been universally in KDE printing through Okular.
    I've tried some things I've found suggested, such as modifying the mime.conv as suggested by an old ubuntu thread, adding the a2ps package, all to zero effect.
    Last edited by TheWretched (2012-12-08 00:27:41)

    At this point the only reasonable explanation I can think of is that the ppd package I downloaded and installed via included shell script from lexmark for the mx710 caused this whole catastrophe.  The only common thread for this problem starting was that I used this on all of the affected machines and they now all manifest problems.  And on four of these machines this is literally all that was done, they were loaded in september, have not been updated via pacman in any way, and are running the exact same version of cups poppler, and okular that they were then, which was working, and now cannot print pdf to any printer at all without causing one of several problems depending on the printer.
    I cannot seem to get this reversed though.  I've gone so far as to force remove all the cups packages, and delete the files associated with the install script, but the problem remains afterward.  From what I can see so far all this lexmark package did was display a license agreement, then copy the ppd files in it's folder to /usr/share/ppd/Lexmark.  This particular printer, the mx710 has no .ppd available that I have found other than this one from Lexmark directly.  Open printing doesn't have anything for this model.
    This printer's driver has some kind of a cups filter driver with it that the install script presumably installs, I suspect this could be what caused the problem specifically, but I must not be removing it correctly, despite following the file removal suggestions in the Lexmark readme for uninstallation.  CUPS printing is something I am new to and only have a basic understanding of.
    To answer some specific questions I nearly forgot, I don't have cups pdf installed.  I have chrome installed which can successfully save pages to PDF, previously it could also print pdf, and presumably it prints everything as pdf given the cups pdf workflow.  That is also broken now too, so printing from the browser causes the printer to fail as well.  If I save as pdf from chrome, and print with adobe reader, it works.

  • ENVY 7640 error "There is a problem with this printer"

    Hi guys. I got this printer 4 months ago and it has been working marvelous. But this weekend when I turned it on the error "There is a problem with this printer" appeared, just after it connected to my wifi network.I made several tests and the error comes only if the network is connected to the internet.When it is not connected to the internet the printer works fine (prints, scans, all via wifi).I have a MAC and an AirPort Time Capsule.Is there any set up that solves the problem?

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are getting the error message, "There is a problem with this printer," with your HP Envy 7640 on Mac OS X 10.10. I am happy to help!  Is this error message showing on the printer's display screen, or on the computer screen? If the error is on the computer screen, try resetting the print system. If the error is on the printer's display screen, please try a hard reset, by going to this post, How to perform a Hard Reset, by . It is important that the printer's power cable is plugged directly into the wall outlet, and not a surge protector. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well. I would also double-check that your printer's firmware is up-to-date. Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates. Hope this helps!  “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”
