Officejet pro L7590 always goes offline on my hp pavilion

My HP Pavilion notebook is "wirelessly hooked" to my wireless router (mororola). my hp officejet pro L7590 is also physically tied to my wireless router (not using the printer wireless). When i install the printer, my computer recognizes the printer on the network/wireless and allows me to install using the appropriate driver etc. I can print fine for a little while. If i turn off the computer or it goes to sleep, somehow, the printer goes "offline" and I'm unable to print. I'm having to uninstall & re-install the printer each time this happens. It's as if my computer is not recognizing that it's still communicating with a printer once it's gone to sleep or restarted. Such a pain.
BTW - my home desktop computer (also hp) is hooked to the printer and never goes offline. It probably doesn't have this issue b/c the desktop isn't having to connect wirelessly via the router.
Advice??

There are several updates on this page. You did not state it but I assume you are using WIn7 64-bit.

OfficeJet Pro L7590 - wireless printer issue

Hi,
I have a 2008 OfficeJet Pro L7590 printer. I'm just now trying to get my printer to print wirelessly and I'm having multiple issues. I lost the disk for installation, but downloaded the installation via hp.com/support
After installing it, I tried to connect it wireslessly. On the final step, it says "
Unable to communicate with your printer. Not all diagnostic tests could be performed. Check cable connections and then retry."
I've checked all my cords and everything and they are plugged in correctly! BUT here's the thing. When I go to my start menu, and click control pannel → network and then click on a tab, such as "Network and Sharing Center, Connect to a Netowk, or set up a connection or nework. The window absolutely freezes and I'm not able to click on it at all. Also, I don't see a wireless conection icon on the bottom bar, right corner. (not sure what that's called) All i see are two computer screens and a red X ontop of them (icon)
I really need to connect my printer wirelessly, so I can use my phone, ipads and ipod touches! Please help. I've spent so many hours trying to figure this out!
HP doesn't offer me anymore help because it's out of warrenty

Hello iAliciaa.
I understand you are trying to installing your Officejet L7590 and you are receiving a message indicating "unable to communicate
with your printer". Are you connecting this printer Ethernet or wireless?
Please follow this entire HP document if you are connecting your printer using an Ethernet connection: Printer Is Not Found During Installation.
I understand completely what you are talking about, but could you verify what type of Operating System you have?
Click on this website to find out: Windows.
Look forward to hear from you.

Unable to install Officejet Pro L7590 print driver in Windows 8.1

I have lost days of time trying to get my OfficeJet Pro L7590 to print properly and otherwise operate in a stable manner. My computer is a new Dell XPS8700 running Windows 8, upgraded to Windows 8.1 via the "Store" app after purchase. My problems started soon after the 8.1 update.
The primary problem symptom is the printing of about a half page of text fine, then the printer spits the page out and prints several more pages of mostly blank paper with random symbols around a top or side edge. This occurs regardless of the program doing the printing, i.e., MS Word, Excel, Acrobat, etc.
I have run the Printing Doctor program many times which doesn't fix anything, despite its claims to the contrary (more below).
I have been on this forum many times and tried multiple instances of uninstall/reinstall without success. The HP Installer may make it through the whole installation process but unstable performance of the printer is the outcome. Uninstalling the printer software using HP's uninstaller ALWAYS crashes before it can finish uninstalling. I get a message of "HP Installer Uninstaller has stopped working". I would attach a screenshot here but I does not seem an option in this window.
I have run multiple versions of HP's scrubber programs which also crash by level 2 with same message. I still ran L4 regardless but that crashes, too. That's the constant of every uninstallation or scrubbing effort using HP's programs: a crash without an error message given beyond the "HP Installer Uninstaller has stopped working".
I run the Printer/Scanner Doctor tool when the software was malfunctioning and it always finds a Print Spooler problem, "fixes" it but the problem remains. This posting is coming after the "Doctor" tool told me to uninstall the program. HP's uninstaller crashed, as usual, but the I was told to use Windows Add/Remove programs to finish the job. I did. I have not tried to install the program again and am becoming close to 'Refreshing' my entire Windows program, which will require reinstalling and updating Windows and every program I use - which will take days. I hope to avoid that step.
Dell's hardware analysis utility tells me everything hardware is great!
I truly believe HP's software IS THE PROBLEM and would love to figure this out. The printer has always worked great - until the Windows 8.1 update. The scanner will work fine (usually) after I reinstall the software. I used the printer before on my prior computer running Windows 7 with no trouble.
Going into today's crash info, via Event Viewer, I have this message from the error log:
Application 'C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\Digital Imaging\bin\hpqbam08.exe' (pid 3960) cannot be restarted - Application SID does not match Conductor SID..
And this error occurred just after:

There was an earlier - about 30 minutes earlier - warning saying:
The application (HP Solution Center, from vendor Hewlett-Packard) has the following problem: To function properly, HP Solution Center must be reinstalled after you upgrade Windows.
I have reinstalled it many times. I have used HP's installation & uninstallation utilities, including the Installation failure utility, none of which install the program properly, CERTAINLY not well enough that I can EVER uninstall it without a crashed uninstallation per description above...
I think I have reviewed and tried every "canned" HP quick solution, and not so quick solution, on this forum.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 won't print correctly after it sits a few days

I have a HP Officejet Pro L7590 All In One. It all of a sudden will not print correctly after it sits a few days. I purchased a new black/yellow printhead recently and it did print well for about a week. If it sits a few days, it acts up again. All I have to do to fix it is take out the yellow/black printhead clean with sterile water on a q tip the printhead, put it back in, and walla it prints again until the next time I want to use the printer, and the same thing again. Today I printed out some pictures after not using the printer for 5 days, the pics had large vertical stripes in them, the stripes have colors in them. I cleaned the printhead and it worked perfectly. Any ideas. I have replaced the black cartride, and the yellow recently.
thanks for your input

Hello pcmtgrl
Which model of the Officejet 8500A series do you have? Typically you can find it inside the printer where you change the ink cartridges. Example: A910g, A910a, etc.
Has anything changed recently since the problem started? Is the printer plugged into a wall outlet or a surge protector? Do you have the latest firmware installed? I also suggest running the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility. Let me know if it finds anything out.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 networking problem

Hi!
I have the following problem:
I have an Officejet Pro L7590 All-in-one printer. It is connected to my wlan router (ASUS WL-500G Premium) through its ethernet port.
I have two desktop PCs, i've installed, and using this printer on them without problems. One of them runs on Vista, the other on Windows 7.
But i can't get it work with my notebook. It connects to the router through wlan (Intel WLAN 3945ABG adapter), runs on Windows 7. When i try to add the printer, the installer detects the printer on the network, but during the installation of the device, i get an error, that the device cannot be set up.
I have tried:
-Other (older and newer) versions of printer software.
-Updated printer's firmware, doesn't work either with the original, or the newest version, the problem is the same.
-tried with all firewall settings, it doesn't work even with fully disabled firewall (I'm using Eset 4.0, even tried to remove it)
Does anybody have some idea for this? Please help!

The following are the details about network printer problems in Windows 7:
    “Access is denied” Error
     Not getting Add Printer Wizard
     Choose compatible drivers
“Access is denied” Error
If the “Access is denied” error is showing up on the computer, just go through the steps to fix the error. First, open the Printer Wizard through the Control Panel. Select the ‘Add printer Wizard’, then click ‘Add a local printer’ and then click ‘Create a new port’. Make sure that local port is there in the list and then click ‘Next’. In the Port name dialog box, type computer name and printer name and then click ‘Ok’. Complete the wizard steps to finish the process.
Not getting Add Printer Wizard
In some cases, the Add Printer Wizard may not be available to you. At that time, just open the Printer Wizard through the Control Panel. After that choose the ‘Network Printer’ page and go through the ‘TCP/IP’ page and complete the additional steps in the wizard.
Choose compatible drivers
You need to choose compatible driver in Windows 7. First, you have to click the ‘Start’ button and select and ‘All Programs’. Then, go to ‘Accessories’ and select ‘System Tools’ and then click ‘System Information’. Then, you have to select the ‘System Summary’ and then review the OS Name and System type to find out which version of operating system you are running. Then, accordingly choose the network printer driver for your computer.
Set peace of mind as your highest goal,and organize your life around it.

Hp Officejet Pro L7590 Paper Jam and Ink is not working well

My HP Officejet Pro L5790 says paper jam, but I went through all of the printer, and there is no jam. When doing to self printing test, the ink is not full on the page. There are lines through the words making it difficult to read. It is as though the cartridge is low or empty, but the cartridge is brand new and all the cartridge levels are fine.

Hello DakotaRidge,
I understand that you're having issues with your Officejet Pro L7590. I will do what I can to help you.
I have two documents for you to attemp for the issues you have specified.
For the paper jam message try this one: 'Paper Jam' Message Displays on the Control Panel or the Computer.
And for the ink/printing issue try: Troubleshooting Print Quality Issues.
Please let me know if this was helpful.

Hp officejet pro L7590 all-in-one printers - 'door open' message

We have a 1 and 1/2 year old HP Officejet Pro L7590 all-in-one . "Door Open" message would not go away even if all the doors are intact, or after we shut it down and turn it back on after 60 seconds. We could not print, fax nor copy. We talked to HP customer service which no longer support this series. How can we bring our printer back to work?

There are at least three interlock switches that can cause this error. One is on the door that covers the ink cartridges, one is on the top lid (covering the "guts" of the printer) you lift up to service the printheads and the third is on the back duplexer; if you don't have a duplexer, there should be a cover in place. You'll need to check all three to be sure they're in working order.
I know the door covering the ink cartridges has a tendency to break off the little tab that keeps the door closed so that would be the first one I'd check. The top lid that covers the "guts" of the printer also has a small tab that goes into a hole that activates an interlock switch. If that tab is broken off, the switch does not get closed, giving you the error message you see. I've seen this broken off also, usually from closing the cover when misaligned with the receiving hole. If this one is missing, you can ball up a small piece of paper and shove it in the hole to activate the interlock switch.
The 7590 is a great printer. Much better built than the newer models and cheap to operate, IMO. Hope you can get it working again.

HP Officejet Pro L7590 goes "offline" from my HP Pavilion laptop

My network printer (HP Officejet Pro L7590) goes "offline" from my HP Pavilion laptop often. I have to uninstall it and reinstall it in order to print again. It doesn't happen all of the time but about 90% of the time.
Documents will stay in queue but not print. I can't uninstall it completely without deleting any documents in queue. It's so frustrating!!
How do it get it back online without having to go through this? Do i need to reinstall a printer driver or update it? How can I tell if I need to do that?

There are several updates on this page. You did not state it but I assume you are using WIn7 64-bit.

HP OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink.

My OfficeJet Pro L7590 suddenly won't print yellow ink. The cartridge isn't empty. It still prints everything else. Things that require yellow ink come out a different color (ie: green comes out blue). I've cleaned the printheads several times from the "tools" menu and the report says the printheads are in "good" condition. I've also tried soaking the printheads in hot water for 5 min like was mentioned on here. Still nothing. Any suggestions?

Hi - you've worked through all the steps in the support document here? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01957673&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc...
If you have, and still see bad red and green blocks on the PQ Diagnostic page (as described in the document), you may have to replace the black/yellow printhead (even if the printhead health is reported as 'good'). You can check your warranty on that printhead here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&docname=c00206040

Helvetica Font Available for HP Officejet Pro L7590 All-in-One Printer

I have a client that needs to use Helvetica for the HP Officejet Pro L7590 All-in-One Printer, but we are not seeing this as an option.
I assume the driver doesn't provide this font? What other options exist for using the Helvetica font with this printer?
Thanks,

Officejet Pro L7590 will not print in black

I have an All in One Officejet Pro L7590. When I first got the printer 3 months ago, everything was printing perfectly. Now, out of nowhere, it will not print in black. It only prints in color. I have done all the aligning, printhead cleaning, changing cartridges, etc. I am at a loss as to what to do. Has anyone had this problem with this model? Can anyone help? Thank you.

Thank you so much for responding. After (3) HP printers all having the same difficulty and support not knowing what the problem was, (also many hours with Support) I determined it was the printheads also. The printheads don't seem to last very long and can be more costly than the printer itself if you have to keep replacing them. I changed over to a laser jet. No printheads needed. And I have not had any problems so far. Just need to replace the ink cartridges when they run out. I have the HP Color LaserJet CP1518ni.

Windows 8 driver cannot find HP Officejet Pro L7590 ethernet printer on my new router

I'm changing to a new router and had to change the IP address of my ethernet Officejet Pro L7590 from fixed assigned 192.168.1.7 into fixed assigned 192.168.2.168 (my new provider provided router doesn't support the 192.168.1.xx range). At installation my PC Driver cannot find my HP Officejet Pro L7590 ethernet printer, both not by it's search function, nor by giving the specific new IP address. Browsing and login into the printer by adressing the new Static IP address works however fine: de printer is well attached. What do I wrong with at PC driver installation, any suggestions to have the printer coupled to the PC driver?
Update: Connecting the printer directly to the router instead of via a switch solved the problem!

The Officejet Pro L7590 unfortunately will not be updated to support AirPrint. Check out my [FAQ|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2658560&tstart=0] thread for some other options.
Just trying to help.
