Photosmart 5514 won't print or scan for Mac 10.5.8

I suddenly can't scan or print. On the screen it will say page 1 of 4 printing but the printer doesn't do anything. It's critical that I fix this before Thursday. Any suggestions? I tried unplugging printer and then replugging. I restarted Mac. What else should I do?

My new hp photosmart 7525 won't print

my new hp photosmart 7525 won't print and says it is "offline". In addition, the tray app error keeps coming on. I uninstalled my old printer. I have Vista.

Hi @hannabanna
I would like to help you print to your 7525. Let's first address the tray app error, then we can focus on the printer offline message.
The tray app error seems to be stemming from the older software you have uninstalled, it appears something did not fully uninstall. Please complete the following steps.
Please note; I simply choose the printer I did for steps 3 because of the version of software, we will not be installing this printer, I only want to use it to perform a comprehensive uninstall.
Hold down the Windows Logo key () on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box, type %temp%
Delete all files and folders from the temp folder. Choose skip if any pop ups appear saying any of the files could not be deleted
Download the software and choose to save as, save to desktop > HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Printer
After the software downloads and extracts, open the temp folder again, use the instructions from step 1.
Look for, and open the folder starting with 7z (Example: 7zS2356)
Open folder Util
Open folder CCC
If you have an HP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have anon-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
Follow these steps to reset the registry settings and options for Windows Installer.
Hold down the Windows Logo key on the keyboard and the 'R' to open the run box
In the Open box, type msiexec /unregister, and then click OK.

Hello,
Is your printer connected to a wireless network with Internet access?
Do other web services work on the printer? Meaning, can you use ePrint or the Printables on the front panel? (printables = apps on the printer like Disney, Menu Planner, Quick Forms, and so on.)

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off

I'm running Adobe 9 pro on snow leopard and when I save or print from word for mac 14 the bottom gets cuts off. Can someone help?

Ah! You're creating a PDF out of Word through Acrobat. The cutoff is most likely being affected by the printer chosen.
When you call up the print dialogue in Word, check to see what printer is being used. If it's a typical inkjet printer, Acrobat is using the print margins of that printer as the cutoff area. Since most such printers can't print to the last inch and half or so of the paper, that's where it would be cut off.
Near the bottom, under the preview of the document, click on the Page Setup button. It doesn't really matter which printer you select here. Under Paper Size, choose Manage Custom Sizes. Under the Non-Printable Area heading, choose the same printer and set the paper size you're using.
Note that the unprintable margins for that printer will be filled in automatically. That's what's being cut off. Click the + button to create a modified version. The default will be "Untitled". Give it a new name if you want. Then set all of the margins to zero. Click OK. Now you'll have that as a choice under Paper Size. Doesn't matter that the actual printer can't use this setting since you're going to a PDF. Click OK to get back to the main Word print dialogue.
Now choose Save as Adobe PDF. It should give you an exact duplicate of what's on screen in Word since as far as Acrobat is concerned, your "printer" has no unprintable margins.

My printer (HP Photosmart D7360) won't print from my computer.

When I try to print something like an Open Office (.odt) or Word (.doc) document, I get no error message, it just doesn't print. The same thing happens when I try to print out recipes that I've downloaded, or e-mail. When I go to "printer settings" I get a message that says: "No default printer found. Please choose a printer and try again." When I click on OK, I get a screen up that says: "Printer Setup/ Name: (((hi-lited)))HP Photosmart D7300 Series/ Status: Default printer; Ready/ Type: HP Photosmart D7300 Series/Location: USB001/ Comment: (((none)))" Below this are 4 buttons, (Options) (((alone on the left))), (OK) and (Cancel) (((Center right))) and (Help) (((alone on the right))). If I click on the "OK" button, the screen disappears, and nothing else happens. Exactly the same thing happens with the "Cancel" button. The Control Panel/Devices & Printers screen shows the HP Photosmart D7300 series as the default printer. Without questions, I don't know what else to say. This is a great pain in the butt.

Hello @CBJack,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing issues when trying to print from certain programs on your Windows 7 computer to your HP Photosmart D7360 Printer. I would like to assist you today with resolving this printing issue. It does appear that there is a driver conflict occuring on your computer. That may mean that your driver is not correctly installed, or the correct driver is installed but certain programs aren't 'agreeing' with that driver. I will be running you through some troubleshooting steps below to isolate this issue and resolve this issue. Can I please have you follow the steps below.
Step 1: Run HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool:
To start troubleshooting I am going to have you download and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool. This Tool will run on your computer and 'fix printing' issues for you. Should any driver, software, or connection conflicts be found than the HP Print and Scan Doctor Tool will attempt to resolve those conflicts for you. Please click here to download the Tool. Once the Tool has downloaded please run the 'Fix Printing' option under the Tool. Once the Tool has completed please test printing again. Should no issues be found under the HP Print and Scan Doctor, but the printing conflict still occurs, there is likely a driver issue occuring between your printer driver and the programs that you're experiencing an issue printing from. Please proceed with the steps below to resolve this.
Step 2: Alter Driver:
I am going to have you install an alternate print driver on your HP Photosmart. Once the alternate driver is installed I will have you test printing to verify if the issue is resolved.
Click on your Start menu
Select Devices and Printers
In the Devices and Printers folder right click on your HP Photosmart D7360 Printer and left click on Printer Properties
Left click on the Advanced tab
Left click on New Driver
When the New Driver window opens just hit 'next' until you see a list of Manufacturers on the left and a list of Printers on the right.
Select HP as the Manufacturer on the left
Select Deskjet 9800 as the printer on the right. If Deskjet 9800 doesn't appear than select 'Windows Update' on the bottom left and once the update completes you will be able to select Deskjet 9800.
After selecting Deskjet 9800 hit next to complete the New Driver Wizard
Under the Printer Properties window select 'Apply' but don't hit OK
Select the General tab
Rename your printer back to HP Photosmart D7360 Printer
Hit OK
Lastly, right click on your HP Photosmart D7360 Printer one more time and left click on Printing Preferences
Left click on the Paper/Quality tab
Left click on the 'Normal' dropdown for Print Quality on the bottom right and change this to Fast Normal
Hit Apply and OK
Now that the alternate driver is added in please try printing from the programs you were previously experiencing issues with.
Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. Best of luck!

Hp photosmart plus won't print and alignment failed

HP Photosmart Plus stopped printing without any warning bells/error messages. Changed the black ink cartridge, used the clean and allign tools...alignment failed is the error messge I get and it still won't print.

Hi @jmfmls,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP Photosmart Plus will not print and the alignment failed. I am happy to help you with these issues!
For further assistance, I will need to know some more information:
The Product/Model Number of your printer. Follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number.
If you are using a Windows or Mac Operating System, and the version number. To find the exact version, visit this link. Whatsmyos.
If the printer is connected, Wireless, Ethernet, or USB.
If the printer is able to make copies by itself.
If the power cable is plugged into a surge protector, or directly to the wall outlet. Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector. This applies to Inkjet printers as well.
Please see this post, Want Good Answers? Ask Good Questions, by @Bob_Headrick, so you can get the most out of these forums.

Photosmart C4580 won't print - push a button on printer it shuts down

The Photosmart C4580 has been reluctant lately to print anything at all. The documents sit in the spooler but won't print.
I've searched for this problem here and haven't seen same printer, same issue and solution, so here goes...
Dell Dimension 3000
Win XP Pro Service Pack 3
I've had this printer since February 2009. I've set it up on the USB port.
Three weeks ago I upgraded the memory from twin 256 module setup to twin 512 using Dell products. Obviously, I took the PC apart, cleaned the dust bunnies, installed the memory and everything worked great after rebooting - including the printer.
About two weeks ago a carriage jam error popped up. It wasn't jammed but I pulled the ink, reset them and restarted the printer. It worked fine - no noises, no jams, nothing.
Yesterday the printer quit printing at all. It said documents are printing but they just sat in the queue. I've done:
1. HP Solution Center guided solution
(when it asks to hit the Cancel Button and Start Copy Color buttons to print Self Test, the printer shuts down every time)
2. Windows troubleshooter
3. The HP Support solution online
4. Reinstalled printer using original CD
5. Reinstalled using the latest install software from HP online.
*After the latest reinstall, where the program asks you to print a test photo page, it did not print. HOWEVER, after I shut down and restarted the printer, that photo printed! But I can't print anything else since.
Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

Won't print information sheet for network printer

I have accessed my printer on two different computers wirelessly. I need a "printer code" for other devices, which apparently is printed on some "sheet"....which won't print. I get a message that "a web services information sheet will be printed...." but nothing ever comes out (but documents do so I know it works.)
How do I get this information sheet to actually print?

Thank you SO much for your quick response! I think it kept dropping the connection intermittently and screwed up the request to "enable" the network printing. (That was on the page where you enter the ip address in a webpage) so when I asked to print that info page, it just lost the request every time.
I did google around a little and reset the router and the printer by replugging in the printer. I also reset some automatic IP stuff to manual setting (I am REALLY not familiar with this kind of thing...can you tell!? ha ha!!!) Anyway, I followed the instructions for a different printer (with a similar connection issue) here on the hp site...the DNS thing seemed to make the difference:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/HP-Photosmart-5510-Printer-Wireless-Net...
I hope other non-techies like me can follow those instructions too. That 8.8.8.8. and 8.8.4.4. stuff and the re-plugging in seemed to somehow make it work!

HP Deskjet F4850 won't print but scans

HP Photosmart c410 won't print magenta after I cleaned the printhead

I recently tried printing a document but the black came out faded, even though I had a lot of black ink left. This has happened before so I figured I needed to clean out the printhead to clear up any gunk stuck inside. I rinsed the printhead out and let it air-dry overnight. The next morning, I put it back in and inserted all the ink cartridges, which I also left out overnight (not sure if that was a bad idea, since I've done it before). The printer came up with an error message, warning me that magenta won't work or something along those lines and said to change the cartridge or to click OK to continue. I clicked OK, because I had quite a bit of magenta left so I didn't want to just change it; I've never seen that message before. Magenta hasn't worked since then. I've tried re-aligning the cartridges, I've tried clicking clean printhead. When I Print Quality report, it shows black, cyan and yellow (yellow is kind of streaked though). I changed the magenta ink cartridge to see if that might help afterall and it's simply not working! Please help me out! I think I fudged my printer

Hi tracyhuynh,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the Magenta not printing. I also see that you stated that the black in was faded as well.
Here is a document that deals with Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One Printer Series (C410a, C4....
I am also going to give you a document that deals with when the Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Officejet 6500 All-in-On....
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
