Print jobs fail to print on 1102w. Installed as USB. Seems to happen when printer is in sleep mode

Have uninstalled an re-installed drivers, etc.
Is there a conflict with wireless?

A long shot: Your machine is acting *as if* you had the "Logout after x minutes of inactivity" box checked in the System Preferences-Security-General pane. Have you looked at this yet?

Why does Lookout fail (freeze) when a print job fails?

I've experienced this only a few times for several years now, but it is repeatable. Basically, if Lookout sends a print job (panel or alarm/every) to the default printer and the printer is not online for whatever reason, the Lookout.exe consumes 100% CPU according to task manager and when commanded to close or exit, a popup indicating "x number of print jobs in progress" displays repeatedly and I must "end program" and restart Lookout to continue operations. Shouldn't Lookout offer the option to abort the print job and resume service within a couple of mins or when commanded rather than stubbornly lock-up if a printout fails?
John T. Sampson

I'm runnning the latest build of Lookout 5.1 on a Windows 2000 PC. I have experienced this on several other of the same systems as well. For example, I have a report panel configured to print automatically at 0700 and typically there's no problem, but if the default printer fails for some reason and is not able to complete the print job, Lookout's app consumes 100% CPU and will not shutdown when commanded - instead it reports a "print job in progress." It would ne nice if Lookout would let the print job timeout and resume normal operations. Instead, I must "end task" Lookout and restart it to resume.
Any other thoughts? Can we configure a timeout on the print job?
Thanks again for your comments, JTS

My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer. I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function. Ideas?

My Macbook pro OS 10.10.2 suddenly will not communicate with my Cannon MX890 printer. I reset all printers and now I cannot seem to add a printer by using the Add a printer function. Ideas?

The appearance of the printer in the Default view of the Add printer window relies on a protocol called Bonjour. There have been quite a few users who upgraded to Yosemite only to find that their wifi printer is no longer visible. Until Apple resolves this issue you can add your printer using the LPD protocol. To do so you will need to determine the IP address being used by the MX890. This can be done via the touch panel under Device Settings > Network Settings.
Once you learn the IP address then on the Mac you can click to add the printer and select the IP icon. Here you can enter the IP address, set the Protocol to Line Printer Deamon and leave the Queue field blank. Then change the name to Canon MX890 and in the Use menu, browse for the Canon MX890 series driver. Then click Add to complete the printer creation.

How do I wake up the tablet on a HP Photosmart eStn C510 printer when it goes into sleep mode.

I have tried to wake up my tablet attachment and it won't wake up. I have tried on/off switch and pressing the home/and the other 2 buttons beside the home button but still won't come on. This happened once before and somehow got it to wake up. This happens when printer sits idle for a long time. I try to press the home button every now and then to keep active.

HP210a print jobs fail over wireless, but can still print Test Diagnostic page over network

Help! I cannot print over the wireless network anymore. When I try, the print job queues up and I get "Error - Printer" message. I can print the Test Diagnostic page just fine over the network. I can also print fine when connecting via USB port. I have the latest firmware. Any ideas?

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP 210a printer and not printing over wireless. HP Print and Scan Doctor.

Printer requesting to load legal paper so print job fails

The printer is a HP Laserjet 4 series PCL-5, device driver: HPLJ4.
It has 3 trays: #1 is a bypass, #2 and #3 have 8.5x11 paper.
This printer has been in use for some time, but suddenly the printer is now requesting to "load plain legal" when a print job from SAP originates. If the user disregards this message and prints anyway then only part of the print job comes out. If legal paper is loaded, the print job comes out. But the users do not want it printed to legal, they want the 8.5x11. I have tried specifying the 'Tray Info' as letter in SPAD. The printer works just fine for any Windows applications like Microsoft Word, but not with SAP. Another printer (same brand and device type) does work as expected and the config in SPAD is the same for these 2. The printer support group says nothing has changed in the config in the printer itself and that the issue has to be on the SAP side.
Any feedback on this would be appreciated!

Since you say another printer of the same brand using the same device type works with the same settings in SPAD I think the problem is with the printer itself.
This issue comes up occasionally at my site - often after someone prints something out of the ordinary like labels. Nothing changes in the configuration menu of the printer but the printer asks to load legal when printing from SAP.
I think there is a lever on the side of the paper trays on HP Laser Jet4's that can be adusted for paper selection. Have your printer support group compare the paper tray lever settings of the printer that doesn't work out of SAP with one that does.

After installing CS5 all pdf printers crash when printing

Hello!
I'm having really annoying problem with pdf-printers. After CS5 has been installed all pdf printers stop working.
I've tried to print with Adobe PDF, pdf x-change, PDF-converter and all of them hungs upp and takes down also the program where im printing from. I have same problem on two differents computers (both win xp sp3). Uninstalling other pdf printers and leaving just Adobe PDF wont help. All updates are applied. No help from event viewer or any logs, just notify of crashed program.
I'm pretty sure that this is some kind of shared .dll or driver problem.. What should i do?

Hi Theo:
Just out of curiosity, did you set up your printer using the OS X built-in drivers, or did you use the HP stuff? I have seen posts from people who have had difficulties with the HP supplied drivers.
Also, by the latest Adobe Reader, I am assuming that is 9.0.0. I had a similar problem sometime ago, but it seemed to disappear when I downloaded the aforementioned version of the Reader.

What happen when printing hyper black?

Hi all
Imagine you start a new document...after create any element and fill it using C=100, M=100, Y=100 and K=100. In the Illustrator preferences I have set output blacks accuratelly. So we will have 100% of colors at all the plates in press.
Ok..this is my question: Why would occur when printing this element hyper black? Would it "crash" the paper because it´s to much concentration of ink? or what?
It´s a question about graphic production..not how to do do anythin in Illustrator.
Thank you a lot
See.

It might be that nothing would happen; for example, if the four seps were not printed on the same press run. Suppose the four color job was run on a two color press, with plenty of drying time between runs.
More than 300% ink coverage is not really uncommon. Spot varnish is often printed over areas already pushing the recommended total ink coverage limit; but again, that's on a separate press run after adequate drying time. Same goes for spot inks, like opaque metallics.

HP Photosmart 6520 not printing when coming out of "sleep" mode

A few months ago I bought an HP Photosmart Model 6520 e-All In One printer. It has never performed properly and I've tried everything I can think of to fix it.
When in "Sleep" mode (how I wish you could just stop it from "sleeping"!!) it seems to just quit. If I send something to the printer and it is in sleep mode, sometimes it will wake up and after a LONG wait print. However, most of the time it will inform me that the printer can't communicate with the computer. At this point I can sometimes get it to print after completely rebooting the printer, sometimes several times. There have been times that even doing this won't work and I have to delete everything in the que and reboot the printer and hurry to get whatever it was I needed printed back into the que.
There have been times that nothing I did would work. I would end the day and leave things in the printer que. Next day, after turning the printer back on..everything starts to print. Well at this point, whatever I needed printed isn't needed anymore.
Waiting even several minutes for this printer to respond is crazy and waiting hours is not acceptable period!! I have no idea why you are not given the option of keeping the printer from "sleeping" at all. If the option is available, there should be some way to opt out of using it.

These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.
1. Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual). This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers. Verify your DHCP range and change this first if needed. More Wireless Printing help is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).
2. Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off/Sleep' is disabled and/or the System Mode Time Out is set to zero (0). Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click Settings Tab/Auto Off. Or use the Printer Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS). Also check your Printers Properties.
3. If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, turn off IPv6 in the printer.
4. If needed and you assigned a static IP address, try using 8.8.8.8 for the Preferred DNS server and 8.8.4.4 at the Alternate DNS server.
5. Verify the printer is on the latest firmware by checking with the HP Support site.
In the router: (Refer to your router manual for information)
1. Use a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
2. Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router.
3. Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode.
4. Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security. Nobody can hack your system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web).
5. If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same, they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks.
6. SSID broadcast must be enabled.
7. Save all settings. Power off both, wait 2 mins. Power on router wait 2 mins.
8. Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router.
Windows 7/8/8.1 Is Network Discovery on or off?
1. Control Panel/Network and Internet/Network and Sharing Center/Advanced sharing settings.
2. Under Home or Work (current profile) / Network Discovery.
3. Select "Turn on network discovery" and save changes.

Print problem - prints fine in photoshop and windows but direct from illustrator is off centre when printed.

when printing a full page image from illustrator the print is off centre and does not print the image in line with the paper. the same image prints just fine in photoshop and as a jpeg from windows own program. the positioning is zeroed in the dialouge box and the preview image shows how it should print, but it does not print as shown. please help.

clarke,
What happens if you Save a Copy as PDF, then print from Acrobat or Reader?
If that helps, you may consider trying to (find and) use a PostScript (emulatin) printer driver to your printer, if possible.

3055 when printing pdf the text is full of symbols and rubbish. No problems when printing Word

I have a HP Laserjet 3055 and when printing pdf, the text is full of symbols and rubbish.
I use Adobe 8.0 and never had problems before. Who can help me, this is driving me crazy! Printing Word is okay.
Thanks

Thanks a lot!

The print font is gigantic when printing gmails only. How do I reset the size of the font when printing a gmail message only.

Only when attempting to print a gmail does this occur, but the print size is so large that it takes 3-4 pieces of paper to print something that should be a short half page. Font must be about a 48 size.

orange Firefox button > Print -> Print Preview
Use the '''Scale''' control to change the "print" type size to what works best for you. Note that once you change the scale Firefox will remember that setting for the next use of printing.

Only 1 of my 2 Thunderbolt displays restarts when coming out of sleep mode now that I have installed Mavericks

My setup:
Early 2011 Macbook pro
2 Thunderbolt monitors: one monitor connected to the macbook pro, the second monitor connected to the back of the first monitor
Everything worked great until I installed Mavericks. Since installing Mavericks, when my laptop comes out of sleep mode only the monitor that is connected to the macbook wakes up. The second monitor does not wake up.
In order to get the second monitor to wake up I have to either unplug the thunderbolt connection from the back of the first monitor and plug it in again or unplug the first monitor's thunderbolt connection from the macbook and then plug it in again.
I've tried changing the order of the monitors that are connected to the macbook and rebooting the machine as well. Nothing works. Help?

Okay thanks, but I am a newbie who is not a very tech kind of a person. The only periphals I have are a kodak camera dock, a Canon 310 copier/fax/scanner and a pair of altec speakers. How do I determine if they all have drivers for my MAC? They all seem to work okay, if that is a sign, though the Kodak camera Dock is a bit slow. How also do I determine if they are Apple energy compatible? With each of these peripherals, do I simply disconnect them from my MAC one at a time to see if there improvement?

Strange things happen when printing

when I print I have what seems to be some random faded 'boxes' appear in the background. They seem to be related to elements which have a drop shadow or transparency applied to them.
I have changed 'All Spots to Process' in the ink manager as that fixed some transparency issues in the past but no dice with this problem. Any ideas?
http://cellocelli.com/KCH051308back.pdf
Thanks!

thanks guys,
Peter, I'll try your suggestions. As you see, everything looks fine on screen with the PDF. These little 'boxes' appear only when I print.
"Also, make sure your transparency blend space matches your backgrounds." How do I do that?
Ken, as you may remember from my previous posts, I'm new at this so forgive my lack of knowledge. Does 'banding in the gradient' mean you are seeing horizontal lines down the image? I don't get these on my prints but the text box holding the "Cello/Celli! A Celebration of the Cello" prints with the background of the box visible against the gradient behind it. I also get a similar effects below the blue box holding the 'time & place' info. both of these elements have a drop shadow applied.
BTW, my PDF does show faint lines oulining the 'CC' logo text boxes. These don't seem to print but I want to be sure. The logo was created by grouping two text boxes and applying a transarency to them. Hey, now that I look at my print problem it seems as if these 'logo' text boxes might also be having 'compatibility' issues with the backgroung gradient?
I don't know nutin. Thanks for the help!
