Printer goes offline after reboot (windows vista)

I'm running the latest version of bonjour for windows and vista is running the latest patches. Here's the problem: I can use bonjour to add my HP Laserjet with no problems and its prints perfectly. All is good until I need to restart the computer. After reboot, the printer is listed as offline and nothing I've tried can change the status. I can delete the printer and rerun bonjour and it works again until the next reboot. I don't know what changed but I use to be able to print all the time without this problem. Anyone have this problem or any solutions.
Thanks

Same problem with here, except I've got three computers: one Mac and two WinXP (SP3) pc's. The mac has no problems but both PC's see my Canon PIXMA ip1800 as offline after they reboot. A re-run of the Bonjour setup fixes the problem until the next reboot. I've got the printer connected to an Airport Extreme Gigabit N base station. All software and firmware (on everything) is up to date. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Printer goes offline after printing

    Hello, I have an HP Laserjet Pro MFP M476DW used wireless, which worked fine until the upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.2. Now go offline after you have printed a copy and must be turned off and on for printing. And then press the last thing in the print queue and then goes back online. I uninstalled / reinstalled updated drivers etc but the problem persists. Can anyone advise please?
    Thank you, Emanuele.

    If you haven't done so already, try resetting the printing system.

  • ITunes not "seeing" iPhone except after reboot (windows vista)

    I'm having the most irritating problem with my iPhone and iTunes. Every time I want to sync up, I have to reboot (at least once). For some reason, the USB connection makes that Windows sound like it's connected the device, but then it doesn't show up in iTunes to sync it.
    Usually a reboot cures the problem, but I've not ever been able to successfully sync more than one time without a reboot in between.
    I've tried all the ideas suggested at:

    But none of those have helped. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    technabob,
    What version of Windows Vista are you running (32-bit or 64-bit)? Please note that 64-bit versions of Vista are not supported as stated in the minimum requirements:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305703
    In addition to iTunes and Quicktime, you will also want to remove/reinstall Apple Software Update and Apple Mobile Device Support as listed in:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
    If you are still having issues, you may want to test the iPhone in a new user, or use MSCONFIG to see if there is any software that might be conflicting with the iPhone. For more information on using MSCONFIG, see this article:

  • Hp 4000n, WIN 7 HOME NETWORK PRINTER GOES OFFLINE ON REBOOT

    I have 2 WIN7 desktops and 2 printers.  One HP L4000n is attached locally to one computer and shared by the other computer on the home network.  It is attached to a standard parallel printer port (via) a IEEE1284 controller card.  The other printer is an HP m175nw connected directly to the router and shared across the network by both computers.  Every time I reboot  the 4000n goes into an offline status as to the non host computer and I must uninstall and reinstall it to be able to use it on the non host. Sometimes I have to jump through hoops and waste a lot of time even when I go through the uninstall reinstall process (it is hit or miss).  The M175nw is never a problem and is usable by both computers.  Is there any simple solution to this problem?
    Thanks

    The 4000N appears to be a commercial LaserJet printer.  I recommend posting in the commercial LaserJet forums.

  • HP OfficeJet 6500A Printer goes offline shortly after setup

    Hi,
    Question is: How do I stop my HP 6500A e710a-f printer from going offline? (this is NOT the 6500A+)
    I have a Dell laptop running Win8.0, connecting wirelessly via a Huawei B593 LTE router. Printer is HP 6500A using the E710a-f driver. Printer is attached to the router via an ethernet cable.
    I can create a new HP 6500A printer and print a test page over the wireless network. However, shortly after this, the printer goes 'offline'. I have tried to re-connect by restarting the Printer Servies, but - again - this only helps for a short period of time. i have also re-created the printer from scratch by deleting and then re-creating the printer. Again, the same result. 
    This should be a standard offering for what is an expensive home office printer with standard ethernet ports. Most home offices use wireless routers - so this should be a simple connection. 
    I have looked through the Forums, but not seen any definitive answer - a lot of suggestions over the last few years, but no straight answer.  Apart from the guy who left and bought an Epson instead........!
    It cannot be that hard to fix what should be a standard offering for this printer.
    Can someone help me?

  • HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m wireless goes offline after system is shutdown

    I am using the HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m on a Dell XPS 16 with Windows 7 64bit. I have setup the printer to connect to the Belkin wireless router so it is on the network. I have setup the printer numerous times and had it working over wireless many times. After the PC is shutdown the printer goes offline. I have to rerun setup over and over again to bring wireless back online. I added the MAC address to the Belkin router, and I have the device trusted in my Norton Firewall. I keep seeing "HP Network Support Automatic (Delayed Start)" in services, but changing it does not seem to make any difference I still need to rerun setup again after the system is shutdown. I am also seeing two printer icons in Devices and Printers. One is just the Photosmart Printer with a generic printer icon; and the second is Photosmart Printer, Scanner, Copier with a picture of the Photosmart which I believe it should be. I have run the setup at least 10 times, and I keep getting a good working wireless system then after the machine is shutdown for the day the printer goes offline and will not print again. How can I prevent the printer from going offline in wireless mode?  
    This question was solved.

    Setting a static IP address may help this issue:
    - Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
    - Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
    - Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
    - On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). If you know what that is, set an IP outside that range but no higher than 254 (the last number in the address). If you do not know this, enter the current IP address.
    - Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
    - Leave the gateway and DNS blank. Click 'Apply
    Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
    After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

  • HP LaserJet 600 M602 printer goes offline every night

    Hi,
    I have a HP LaserJet 600 M602 CE991A printer on a wired network. I have quite a few other printers on the network as well and do not show me this kind of behavior.
    But for some reason, this printer, from as soon as I bought it, goes offline every time from around 5.20-5.30pm to around 8.30pm. I have a ping tester running as I am trying to figure out what's going on and I got 100% drop every night for that time period.
    I looked to see if there was a setting that puts this device to sleep or so but no, I cant find anything. I have tried with the energy setting sleep mode on or off, wake up events to trigger a wake up call to the printer but no luck.
    Firmware Bundle Version3.2.5
    Firmware Revision2302908_435019
    Firmware Date Code20140529
    I am out of options, in our other locations, we have sam printer but a CE993A models and they do not show this kind of behavior at all.
    I am at a deadlock here.

    Hi @Halan ,
    I see by your post that you aren't able to print when the laptop isn't in the same area as the printer. I would like to help you out today.
    What is the distance of the printer and the Laptop when the printer goes offline?
    Try these steps to see if it will resolve the issue.

  • OpenGL games fps going down after install Windows on RAID 0 on K9A2 Platinum

    Hello .
    Description of problem :
    The problem was showed right after installations Windows on RAID 0.
    When I had one HDD, the problem was not.
    The problem was showed on both integrated RAID controllers (both on SB600 and on Promise T3).
    When I play games (just games in OpenGL!!! for example conter-strike 1.6, Quake3, on Direct3D such problem is not present), and simultaneously I copy (or other users on FTP:)) a plenty of small files, game frames per second going down.
    If to stop copying in current of minute, frames per seconds goung up.
    If in 2-3 minutes, will help only restart game.
    Processor type: "AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ (Brisbane)"
    Motherboard: "MSI K9A2 Platinum, AMD® 790FX and SB600 (+ Promise T3) Chipset,  AMI BIOS v1.3"

    I have established last version Dual Core Optimizer.
    Tried to clean in boot.ini a key /usepmtimer and reboot has helped nothing.
    The similar problem was on absolutely another motherboard (Biostar nForce570SLI) and hdd (Hitachi 80GB) with the same processor and Windows. But , installation Dual Сore Optimizer and a key/userpmtimer has helped.
    What reasons of a problem? 
    How to eliminate a problem?
    In advance thanks for the answer.

    Oops, missed the PSU....
    Quote
    But why when copying to stop in 3-4 minutes, game fps not going up.
    In fact after copying files system resources are not used, also reading and writing from a disk does not occur.
    I understand that at copying Soft-RAID use some system resources. But when system resources not use game fps not going up.
    Will help only restart game!!!

    See that? You went from single disk to RAID and then the problem started...... I guess it's not very hard to conclude that one is related to the other. Just try to use single disk again an and see what happens.
    Then: did you have two disks installed before going to RAID-0? Or did you add one disk for that? If so, then your PSU may be the troublemaker, not providing enough juice to feed all devices.
    About your English: it is fine, don't worry. We do not mind, as long as it looks like English and we can understand it and as long as there's no MSN-crap in it... so, you are doing fine.

  • BSOD after installing Windows Vista Update Package

    Ok, so I am not good with computers, so I have no idea what to do. I have looked everywhere and still cannot find a solution that seems plausible with my error. 
    The other day I was on my computer and it was running perfectly fine. No freezing, no slowness, perfect. Then, my update thing told me that the most recent Vindows Service pack was available for update, and I like to keep up-to-date with them, so I installed and it was set to automatically update. 
    I have an IBM ThinkPad t61p with Windows Vista Ultimate.
    After restarting the computer I left for a while and came back to the checkdisk running. I had not told it to run, and it had frozen at 74% on step 5/5 of the checkdisk, which I am assuming means that I have some sort of hard drive corruption. So, I was forced to turn off with holding the power button and when it turned on again it went straight to the diskcheck and I watched it until it froze at the same point again. The next time I restarted I got the blue screen of death and now that is all I get whether I start in safe mode, or any other mode. 
    I had a virus or something a while ago that kept freezing my computer, but I think I got rid of it as it has been working fine over the past 5/6 weeks. I also don't think it is a problem with not having enough RAM because I just uninstalled a couple programs that were taking up a lot of space, and even before that it wasn't close to full.
    I get stop: 0x00000024 error and it goes into a restart loop
    When I press the blue ThinkVantage button and go to the F11 menu it tries to open rescue and recovery, but after about 2 minutes it goes back to the infinite restart loop.
    I also tried running the hard drive diagnostics program and IDK how to interpret the results, but it says:   
    Main Hard Disk Drive.......HDD0: HITACHI (gives me the id code)
    Status......Test in progress 100%
    Result......Pass: Controller Diag, Pass: Read verification and speed test
    I have no idea what is wrong and it is so frustrating!!!!!!! What should I do if I can even do anything?! I need help!!!! T_T
    (As a last resort I also tried installing XP on my Vista machine. I didn't think it would work, but I put boot CD in the first spot, and put cd in, but it just goes to the BSOD again.)

    this error is so much obvius.
    just look on internet on how to disable readyboost. additional just turn off the hybrid function and u will never see this bsod again, even i dont know how dumb ur mediacenter edition is and want to give u other bsods. btw i only seen bsods couse of **bleep** driver on my devices. donno how u manage to get such bluescreens......
    btw according to the results i recommning ya to use ckhdsk /f to ur disk. mstWorker is mentioned wich means read write issues on access files. mstworker is microsoft Tiworker, an process wich examines files an bit. used by winupdate and the indexer. 

  • SOLUTION to your HP printer going offline and/or constantly disconnecting from the network

    If you are having a problem printing, scanning or faxing with any HP Printer because of it going offline and constantly disconnecting from the network, here is the fix!
    I figured this all out after many unsuccessful attempts with HP Support, my Internet Service Provider and various troubleshooting tasks including reinstalling HP software over and over and over.  Well, through self teaching on the internet and 6 grueling months of research, I FINALLY figured it out.  OMG!  I am a Paramedic (not IT) and somewhat computer literate but by far no expert.  I here all of you!  Nobody seems to have the answer but I am 97% sure that I do.  Either way, please reply back and let me know that this did in fact work for you!  :-)   
    It doesn't matter if your printer is installed wirelessly or wired.  Don’t worry about reinstalling your software, no recycling your printers’ power or your Router/Modem.  The reason your printer is unstable on the network and continues to either go offline or disconnect from the network is NOT because the software is glitched, it’s not a firewall problem per say, it’s not a router problem, there isn’t a problem with your power cord, it’s because most networks use a “range” of IP addresses and for security purposes, it sort of “cycles” the various devices’ IP addresses to decrease the chance of an attack.  A printer is no threat but the “network” doesn’t possess human intelligence so it doesn’t know this.  Below are my step by step instructions on how to basically make your printer hold its IP address (static IP) instead of changing back and forth through a cycle therefore dropping your printer off the network or disconnecting. 
    Funny, if you are someone who has had items in your print cue, they won’t print, and you turn your printer off and then back on and suddenly your documents print…well, join my club.  The reason this works is because when you first turn on the printer, it starts with the same IP address before it cycles.  If you are someone who sits there for a while and suddenly your documents print without you changing anything…this is because through the IP cycle change, it hits your printers IP address and the network will allow it to print.  Not very funny, I know.  It took me forever to figure out why my printer would print sometimes but not all the time.  Since I figured this out, I can SCAN, PRINT and use all of the features of my installed HP software such as HP Solution Center, Photosmart Essentials.   
    On your printer, go to menu/setup/network and press OK.  Inside the network menu, print a "network configuration page" so you can see the IP address and other settings for your printer.
    Now, go back to main menu on your printers’ screen.  Or you can go to your web browser and type in the IP address using the decimals too and this will take you to your printers’ web page.  Choose: setup\network and press OK.  Look for IP settings and press OK. Choose "manual" instead of "automatic". Enter the IP address there manually as well as the default gateway which you can see on the network configuration page that you printed earlier.  Note: If you manually set the printer's IP, make sure that it is outside of your router's DHCP range. Otherwise you may run into an issue with duplicate IP's on your network. (If you don’t know how to do this, write back and I will explain).  Don’t forget to click “save changes”.  Now, restart your computer and print anything you want.  :-) 
    A trick I often use with printers in DHCP networks:
    In Printers and Faxes right click on the printer and select “properties”.  Click add a new port.  Choose standard TCP/IP port configured to the printer host name. Read the hostname from the printer's network configuration sheet.
    Using my method means that you always connect to the printer even if its IP changes (which may happen with dynamic configuration). This does not jeopardize your network security.  It just tells your printer to stay put and stop traveling the IP address highway.  :-)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The DHCP range is the range of IP addresses the router hands out automatically as devices join the network.  The DHCP range is determined by the router and each brand has a range set at the factory (that can be changed by you).
    Your D-link's DHCP default range is 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199.  So, outside the DHCP range is .2 to .99 and .200 to .254.
    Attached is a handy cheat sheet.
    You can change this range by entering the router's settings page - type the router's IP address into a browser, enter the login info and navigate to the DHCP settings area (varies based on router, hunt around).
