Photosmart 5510d printer keeps saying "busy" when i try to print something but nothing prints.

I just bought a HP Photosmart 5510d printer and installed it on my Mac to work wirelessly.  It seems to be working when I do a test print but when I try to print a document, the printer says "busy" and doesn't print at all.  Any advice?  Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your troubles. Could you post a little more information about your setup? Here is a quick list that should allow us to troubleshoot the issue.
What verion of Mac are you using (10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7)?
How are your trying to print (wired, wireless, from mobile device)?
Thanks!

    Anything is possible.
    it could be off or not connected to wi-fi. 
    It could have been found and restored.
    In any of these cases you will not be able to find it.

  • TS4036 My icloud keeps saying incomplete when i try to back up

    My iphone4  refuses to back up on icloud it keeps saying incomplete

    This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your phone that is preventing the backup.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.
    If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

  • Updating my Iphone 4 then it said error 1604 and now keeps saying that when i try to restore it

    is there anything i can do or do i have to take it to apple?

    I had exactly the same problem. It happened today after I upgraded to Lion and the latest version of iTunes.
    Then I did some search on the net and got a solution and was able to restore.
    What you need to do is, connect your iphone to a different USB port on your system, make sure it isn't connected through a USB hub, only connect directly. If that doesn't work change the USB cable you are using and try again.
    Good luck.

  • Firefox keeps 'Not Responding' when I try to load something

    When I close and open Firefox again when I go to a website and for example I go to click on a picture, it doesn't crash but it doesn't respond and after about 30 seconds it works, this happens a lot now and I have reset my firefox but still it keeps doing this and it is quite annoying. After sometime it seems to settle in and it works, but I would rather this not happen because this has never happened before.

    Mozilla seem to be losing the plot. In the past, people expected Microsoft to release software which contained security problems and then re-release it, only for it not to work properly. Now it appears Mozilla is taking over that role! And the solution to this? Install a Beta version, a version still under development!
    I suspect that the very great majority of software users look for stability, for a program which works well and meets their immediate needs and which will continue to do so for some time - certainly months rather than, as it appears, days, before a new, "improved" version is developed. Maybe Mozilla should think along these lines; meanhwile, I'm going back to the latest 15 release.

  • My Macbook Air keeps freezing up when i try to download something

    Ok so i am trying to learn how to develop for android and I was trying to download the android studio.  I have the app memory clean on my bar at the top, and when i start downloading the program my memory drops from around 3-4 gb to mb and even kb and my mac freezes. When i go into activity monitor the kernal task and installer is taking up all my memeory. I have never had this problem before, and i was wondering if someon could help me.

    Hello kram_eflow,
    Due to the freezing issue you've described, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It features a number of helpful tips and troubleshooting steps:

  • Mozilla will not allow me to update flash player and java and keeps saying 'oops crashed' i need to uninstall it but nothing works

    Please help me uninstall mozilla. I downloaded it ages ago but didn't use it. I have Vista 32 bit computer. Every time I try to update java or flash a box pops up from mozilla to say it's crashed and wont let me update.

    I would have preferred to help you get Mozilla Firefox working, although I will admit that Firefox is currently having some problems with FlashPlayer on Windows. Note by the way that FlashPlayer for Internet Explore is a completely different installation.
    Instructions for uninstalling Mozilla Firefox are here:
    * [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer]]
    If you have not used Firefox you will have no saved passwords or bookmarks to worry about, but most users would normally wish to transfer these where possible to another computer if so see
    * [[Export bookmarks to Internet Explorer]]
    *also this list of help articles [/products/firefox/download-and-install]
    I have not attempted to provide a solution to crashes, but there are several help articles on that, and on Flash issues and java.

  • Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer (photosmart D5160) will not print to CD/DVD when I try it says my printer doesn't support CD printing. any help will be welcome

    Since upgrading to lion and updating HP software my printer ( HP photosmart D5160 driver 3.3.0) will not print to CD/DVD,when I try it says "your printer does not support CD printing". any help will be welcome.

    I see those are old posts above but I'm just now having the same problems. I have the original software CD that came with my Photosmart D5160 printer but I can't load it. I get the message "You can't open the application "HP Installer" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported". So I don't have that going for me, which is not nice! But I couldn't really care less about that if I can just find a CD labeler software that will print from my Mac to the D5160. I'd rather by new CD labeler software than a new printer. I've tried a few free CD labeler software downloads, including iWinSoft Label Maker, but nothing has worked so far. I think there's an answer somewhere; I'm able to print documents on regular paper using this printer, but I only bought it (many years ago) to print CD labels and some pictures. It's been used only sparingly and it's been in storage since I bought my Mac 3 years ago, mainly because a I got a free printer with my purchase. Any help is vertainly appreciated!!!

  • I have a Canon MG3520 and it keeps saying it's OFFLINE and it won't let me Print from my MACBOOK Air

    Hello, I have a Canon MG3520 and it keeps saying it's OFFLINE and it won't let me Print from my MACBOOK Air.  I purchased this printer in late Dec 2013 and it HAS worked before & continues to "make noise" when it is turned on.  This is Very Frustrating and Inconvient since I have a Business from my home.  Please Help asap! Thank you,  Tracey

    traceyss--this might work on mac air:  on google cloud print i went to the cloud site http://w.x.y.z(put in your numbers) and then menu-utilities-energy saving settings, where i turned off "auto off" (clicking on it leads you to this choice) and turned on "auto on."  then i turned off printer and restarted in 5 seconds to get the changes into the mg3520's little brain:  so far, so good(on a chromebook). hope this works for you!--ceaisland55

  • Just upgraded to Mavericks and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported.  Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks?

    Just upgraded my 2009 iMac (3.06 Ghz, core 2 duo $GB 1067 Mhz DDR3) to Mavericks OSX 10.9.5 and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported.  Printer says the software was improperly installed. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks or do I need to go back to Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard? 

    It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
    I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):
    http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
    Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

    I am having problems with the InDesign it won't download it keeps saying extract when its about 30% then it says failed. How can i get it to download all the way?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • I have a iPad 2 I brought it yesterday and it has an update for iOS 6.1 but it won't let me download it. It keeps saying your no longer connected to the Internet but I'm connected to my wifi. Can you help please

    Hi Blueandpink,
    If you are running iOS 4, you will need to update the iPad via iTunes on your computer (can't do OTA updates unless you have iOS 5 or higher).
    If you have a first generation iPad, unfortunately you won't be able to update to iOS 6 (iOS 5 is the highest you can update to on the original iPad).
    If you are on an iPad 2, 3, or 4th generation with iOS 5 and it still isn't working, try holding  down on both the Sleep AND Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds (ignore the red slider button). Keep holding it until the Apple Logo appears. When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of the buttons. This “reset” fixes a lot of iPad issues and might work to resolve the update issue. Try updating again.
    Hope this helps!
    ~Joe
