Photosmart 8050 energy star mode

How do I tell if my HP Photosmart 8050 is in Energy Star Mode? Is that the default? Does the front-panel menu provide a path for setting this?
(Maybe this is in the manual, which I don't have, though I suppose I could download one. It's not obvious how to get this info on the website though.)

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @thinola
After checking through the User Manual , this image below is the only information I could find on the power save mode feature on the printer. I hope this helps!
Have a great day

7510 photosmart printer energy mode

I just got this printer and I like it a lot. I set it up and was able to print from my macbook, ipad and iphone with no problem--this was a few days ago. I just tried to proint something from my macbook and wasn't able to because the printer wasn't connected to the wireless connection. I believe that this has to do with the printer going into energy saver mode. After I turned it off then back on, it worked. Is there a way to stop the printer from going into sleep mode? Thanks

From the front of the printer: Setup > Preferences > Auto-Off > Off.

Downloads don't prevent ML from going into energy savings mode

Since installing ML (clean install) most of the downloads (no matter what program) I do cannot be left unattended because as soon as I leave the computer alone, ML eventually goes into energy savings mode, causing my downloads to cease.
Any idea how to prevent that (other than switching the energy saving off)?

None of the available setting suit my needs. I could turn the settings to "off" anytime I want to download something, but I never had to do this before on my Macs.

HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw screen frozen on hp logo and energy star icon

My HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw screen is frozen on hp logo and energy star icon. It has only printed the test page, and will not print otherwise. I have tried unplugging for 60 seconds, and even uninstalled it and reinstalled it with the latest download - still no change. None of the other icons outside the screen work either (home, help, etc.) about all i can do is turn it off and on. Also, I obviously cannot make copies etc since I cannot access any of the functions. Please help! and thanks in advance!

Hi , I read your post and see that the printer is frozen on the HP Logo and Energy Star Icon. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
I have provided some steps to try to see if we can resolve this issue. Disconnect the USB/Network/FAX and power the printer on Standalone. Check and remove any packaging material inside the printer and toner. Do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation. If the issue persists, perform a power drain by disconnecting the power cord from the back of the printer and keeping the power button pressed for 30 seconds and in case of a power switch keep the switch in ON position for 30 seconds before reconnecting the power chord. Update the printer's firmware, make sure you run this through a USB connection. It may not detect the printer in this error state though. Software and Drivers. Select Option 2 and wait for the page to load and then select the link for firmware. I can send a private message with some another step to try.
In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it. How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless) Please let me know the outcome. Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Is there still any hope to have virtualization feature for my compaq 620 energy star notebook?

Dear HP Support,
it looks like that the motherboard of my compaq 620 energy star notebook doesn't support virtualization technology, even though replace the processor with one with virtualization feature, my notebook still can't have virtualization feature. moreover it is said the CPU socket type of notebook is soldiered to the motherboard, so the processor of notebook can't be replaced. if this is the case, it seems that i can't replace the processor of my notebook.
am i correct? is there still any hope to have virtualization feature for my compaq 620 energy star notebook?
thanks,
q.s.

The processor can be upgraded; it is socketed. However, virtualization must be implemented in the motherboard and BIOS and without that, upgrading the processor will do no good. Which processor do you have?
Here is the Service Manual:
Manual
See page 120....virtualization is possible on some models but I am going to assume only the models with a Core2 Duo processor. Celeron and Pentium Dual models use a different chipset on the motherboard so even if you put in a Virtualization capable CPU it would not work.

My AppleTv keeps dimming as if it is in energy saver mode. My DVD player and TV do not do this. How do I disable the energy saver feature on AppleTv? BTW this is my second AppleTV device so it does not appear to be a product defect.

My AppleTV keeps dimming as if it is in energy saving mode. My TV and DVD/Netflix player do not do this. How do I disable the energy saver feature in AppleTV? BTW: This is my second AppleTV device so it does not appear to be a product defect.

I keep seeing versions of this same question, and it's always the same answer: it's the TV. Well, it happens to me as well. But it only happens when viewing programming via Apple TV. My cable is totally fine: no dimming. Only with Apple TV. So what's the answer?

Monitor goes to energy saving mode

I have a macbook pro 13" (mid 2010) and i also bought the mini display port to vga adapter from apple, one day the computer went to sleep with and external monitor plugged in, and when i tried to wake up the computer the display still in energy saving mode, y tried typing in the keyboard and clicking but nothing, I had to unplug the external monitor and since then when y try to plug any external monitor (i've tried with several) it always goes to energy saving mode. I have tried installing the Mini DP VGA Update but it doesn't recognize that there is an external monitor plugged in.

VGA Card - ATI Radeon 7200 64 SDR, built by ATI, so there are no problems with it.

Computer won't sleep on Energy Saver mode

All of a sudden, the computer will not sleep while on Energy Saver mode. Any ideas on how to locate the culprit?
Thanks!

Hi, seb29. One possible culprit is a fax software setting: if the computer is set up to receive faxes, it either won't sleep at all or won't stay asleep for long. In the Print & Fax pane of System Prefs, click the Faxing tab and make sure "Receive faxes on this computer" is not checked.

Permanent low energy consumption mode in Lion

Hi,
Is there a way to make the machine always work in low energy consumption mode, no matter how much workload there is, like pre Lion machine?

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Photosmart 8050 won't communicate with my computer

My Photosmart 8050 printer has stopped communicating with my Dell computer. I have run the HP Print Diagnositc Utility scan and just get an alert that there is a connectivity issue. I have tried three different USB cables and determined that the cable isn't the issue. Also, I have gone through most of the utility steps and had no success. I am fairly certain that the printer connection is the issue but not sure what to do from here. Any thoughts or recommendations?
I istalled the printer software on a Mac I have and the Mac doesn't recognize the Photosmart printer either.
Thanks!

Do I have a battery charge problem? HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-p258na (ENERGY STAR)

Hi all, I bought a HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-p258na (ENERGY STAR) just yesterday, charged it fully. I notice that even after a full charge the batterly does not last very long. Perhaps two hours at most. I have had laptops in the past that can use battery power for much longer.
At 88% battery life the laptop has approximately 1hr 30 mins left. Just a few minutes later I check back to the battery icon at 76% charge and it has 2 hours 22 mins left (I have not stopped running any programmes on my laptop).
Update: Has 3hrs 1 minute charge at 66% power remaining
Update: 2hrs 24 minutes at 65% power
Is this usual for a HP? Never had one before and am so far not won over

Hi @lucyjoanne87 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion 15 p258na Notebook and getting an error on the battery information. Try performing a hard reset.
When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
This is usually cause by needing an update. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating.
Here is a link to test and calibrate the battery.

How to upgrade Compaq 620 Energy Star from non virtualization to virtualization support?

Dear HP community,
My Compaq 620 Energy Star notebook with CPU Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4500, not support virtualization. For supporting virtualization, I want to upgrade it, e.g. upgrade motherboard (if necessary), upgrade BIOS, upgrade CPU etc. Please recommend the correct and compatible version/model of parts to be upgraded to enable virtualization in this notebook.
It is said it is not easy to upgrade the notebook, but I think with the correct tools and approaches, it shouldn't be difficult to upgrade the notebook.
Thank you very much for your help !

Hi,
Given all those plus labor cost. My suggestion: buy a new machine, a lot cheaper.

Photosmart 8050 and 'Out of Paper' Error

I own a Photosmart 8050 photo printer. I have had it for a little while now and i only print on it every so often when I need to print pictures or other color documents. I use my laser jet printer for printing most of my documents. I've had no problems with the print quality or the ink cartridges at all, but all of a sudden it wont take in any paper. I hear the rollers spinning, and if I push the piece of paper along to "help" it, the paper feeds in. However, with a single piece or 25 or 50, the printer just refuses to pull in any paper. I have examined it closely and there is no obstruction of any kind. No jammed paper, no foriegn objects, no excessive dust or any dried up or spilled ink, yet the paper refuses to feed into the printer on its own. When this happens, the printer inaccurately displays "Out of paper". When I try to "help" feed the paper into the printer, it sends the page halfway out, then displays a paper jam error, at which point I have to press the paper feed button to clear (is it so hard for the printer to do that itself?).
So, I ask, is there an easy fix for this problem? Is there a recall or otherwise warranty covered repair for this problem?
If not, I know the warranty is well over, however I will still have to go out and purchase a new printer to replace this one, and you can be sure it wont be an HP. I am also aware that there is a repair/cleaning kit made for this very issue, like it was some kind of widespread problem that HP just wanted to make money off of instead of fixing for their customers. To me, to spend that kind of money to repair something I know will just break again is just more money than it is worth.

I would second that! Exactly same problem and i have wasted hours on this stupid issue. Seems as if some kind of sensor does not work - am scratching my head now - what a waste of money and time (sigh). HP folks, if you see this, please help for at least your namesake if not customer service (my warranty period has expired too).
And other folks looking for HP Photosmart 8050 - its a nice printer while it works, but don't go for it, its a trouble in slightly longer term.
