Printer not available

I have recently purchased an HP B9180 - it is attached to the network and when I print from most apps the printer is available from the printer selection box.
When I try to print from Aperture the printer is not in the printer dropdown, when I try and add the printer via the add printers option it goes through all of the normal processes but then it does not appear on the list.
When I connect the printer directly via USB I can print fine, but I cannot seem to locate the printer via the network?
Any suggestions?

Hello @Robbo1963 ,
welcome to the HP forum.
I understand that your Zeen is telling you that the printer is unavailable on the wireless network. I would like to help.
Your Zeen can be on the network, while the printer is not.
Place the Zeen in its dock on the printer.
Goto settings.
Choose wireless, then select Sync Networks
If that does not fix the issue try the following document.

HP Laserjet Printer not available in Time Capsule settings

I have an HP Laserjet P1005 printer; very basic stuff. I had previously set it up so that it was connected to my Time Capsule. There were a few issues (I had to connect my MacBook Pro to the Time Capsule via LAN cable for the printing jobs to actually print) but I could use the printer.
I have recently moved offices which required disconnecting everything including my TC. Again, nothing unusual here and when I connected everything in I got back to work no problem. However, I can no longer use the printer (not even when I connect my laptop directly to the TC. I've gone into the TC settings to see that there is no printer linked to the TC. I've tried many times to set up a new printer in my preferences, but when I try to manually change the settings through Airport Utilities there is no printer available for me to choose.
Am I setting up the printer incorrectly? Maybe someone can help me set up the printer so that it comes up when I open Airport Utilities? And why do I always need to connect my laptop to the TC when I want to print; is it because the printer is pretty basic and can't link this way?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Andrew

I'm not sure if the following will help but here goes. I have two printers on my time capsule---A Brother multifunction that I have had on for about 2 1/2 years and recently added a HP Deskjet(both on USB). I first installed the printer directly to my iMac to make sure that I have no printer driver issues etc. Then I plugged the two printers into a USB switch(forgot to turn the HP printer on).. Then I figured my problem out. Printers only show up in the Airport utility if they are turned ON.
May be this will help.

Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro PC with Windows 7 - error mess "Adobe PDF Printer - not available" Help?

Just loaded my old Acrobat 7.0 Professional on new PC with Windows 7 - Error message "Adobe PDF Priner not available. Therefore do not have option of Adobe printer when using Word.
Any ideas as to what - if anythjing I can do?

Hi,
Technically acrobat 7 not not designed for windows 7 OS. You can try to install the pdf printer manually but it's not guaranteed :
Click the Windows "Start" menu, select "Control Panel," choose "Hardware and Sound," click the "Add a Printer" link under Devices and Printers.
Click "Next" and select "Local Printer Attached to This Computer."
Remove the check from "Automatically Detect and Install My Plug and Play Printer" and click "Next."
Select "My Documents\\*.pdf (Adobe PDF)" in the port selection drop-down menu and click "Next."
Select the "Have Disk" option and click the "Browse" button to open a dialog box.
Select the "AdobePDF.inf" file located in the AdobePDF folder in your Program Files directory under "Adobe" | "Acrobat 9.0" | "Acrobat" | "Xtras."
Select the first item on the list of Adobe PDF Converter options and click "Next."
Type "Adobe PDF" in the field for a printer name and click "Next."
Wait for two minutes for the system to process the drivers and click "Finish" to close the Add a Printer wizard.
Hope this helps.

Bluetooth printing - "printer not available" message

Set up HP Photosmart 8250 with HP bluetooth device and set up iBook with D-Link Bluetooth DBT-120. The Mac Bluetooth Setup Assistant appeared to recognize the printer and told me I had it configured for use (and the printer works great when connected by USB cable to both Macs we have) but when I try to print or choose the Photosmart from the printer list and click on "configure", the iBook tells me the printer is not available. Has anyone solved a similar problem. Many thanks for any help...Charles

Hi Charles,
I'm having similar problems with my Canon i80. Bluetooth setup assistant tells me all if configured correctly yet printer is not listed in devices under bluetooth preferences - as yet I cannot print wirelessly.
Have you managed to solve things at your end yet? I'll keep you informed of any progress over here.
Thanks

IPrint on Mac -- printer not available

Hi!
OES 11 SP1. MacBook Air (Apple Mac OS X). Just few days ago installed printer and printed out page and everything was ok, but today "printing", but nothing happen. Then I uninstalled printer and tried to install again, but ... "iPrinter encountered a problem trying to install the printer -- iPrint Printer - The printer is currently not available.". Printer is there and idle and printing from Windows device ... no problem. Maybe something with password ..., but it does not offer to enter anything and correct password was set initially.
Any ideas to try out?
More thanks, Alar.

Which version of OS X?
Which version of iPrint Client?
How up-to-date is OES11 SP1 server re patches? What version of
iPrint-related packages are installed? Please post output from "rpm -qa
| grep iprint"
HTH.

Duplex printing not available on Photosmart 5510 properties window

My Photosmart 5510 All-in-One has avery limited choice when I go to properties options i.e no duplex printing (which I use regularly) no choise for colour , gray or black and few others diferent options. My old HP Al -in One had a fantastic number of options to choose from for printing.
I've noticed that only the Basic driver is downloaded and installed and I can not get it to download and install the full version. I have tried with the installation CD it came with as well as directly from HP web site.
Can anyone help?

Is there a link for installing the Photosmart 5510 all-in-one on a Mac with OSX? My friend needs to have draft mode available and I will be installing this new printer for her. Too bad it doesn't offer duplex printing.

Duplex printing not available on HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw

There are multiple posts on here and all over the internet from Mac users who simply want to print duplex, but I don't see any answers, so I thought I'd add my voice with a new post and see if it gets any attention beofre I start emailing HP's support VP directly.
I'm using Mavericks and have downloaded the latest HP driver. The 2-sided printing option is greyed out.
This is a fundamental problem. Come on HP, this is not good enough.

Hi,
The Twwo-Sided option expected to be grayed out as the M276nw does not support automatic duplexing.. you may find the product specifications listed below:
http://shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Printers/HP-LaserJet/CF145A?HP-LaserJet-Pro-200-...
You may perform manual duplexing by opening the print dialog, click the lowest drop down which appear as the name of the software (e.g. TextEdit / Safari, will appear as Copies & Pages within MS Office).
Select Manual Duplexing and change the settings as required.
If you cannot see such an option, go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners and click the plus sign.
Select the listed printer and set the Use drop-down as the pritner model rather than the default AirPrint option.. then the Manual Duplex option should appear.

Laser Jet CP1025nw: Duplex printing not available from Mac

I just bought a new HP Laser Jet CP1025nw printer and have installed it for wireless use. When trying to print from my Mac (OS X 10.9.3) the option for (manual) duplex printing is not showing up (greyed out) in the print dialogues in applications (e.g. Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat Pro).
How can I get duplex printing workingfrom my Mac?
Thank you!

Reverse page printing-not available with 10.5 & Photoshop CS2

Re printing images - With Tiger (10.4), I had the option for portrait, portrait reversed and landscape. When I upgraded to Leopard (10.5), I lost the portrait reversed. Instead there is a "reverse page orientation" square to check in the layout panel in SOME programs. It's there in Preview, but is NOT in Photoshop CS2 where I really need it. Oddly enough, in the summary panel (with Photoshop) reverse orientation is even mentioned as not turned on, even though there is no way for me to do it.
Does anyone know if there is a way to make this work with my current setup? (10.5.8 & CS2)
Does 10.6 resolve this issue? (I realize that I can't install it on my current Power PC computer)
Do updated Photoshop versions (CS 3, 4 or 4) solve it?
In the next 4 - 5 months I'm planning to upgrade to a Mac Pro, but for now I'm trying to get the most I can out of this old computer. Problem is - I'm not sure if even the new system would give me what I had with 10.4. It's a shame to LOSE function with system upgrades, when one hopes for more function.
Thank you very much in advance for any help or insight into this issue.

I confused the matter by saying reverse page printing rather than reverse page orientation (or reverse image) printing which is what I meant.
I use it for double sided printing in which I need the back side printed in reverse to come out properly.
The problem with using preview for printing is that I lose the dimension measurements which must be precise for the work I do.
But - that's a GREAT IDEA to save a reverse form of an image in PS, and then use that for my back side prints. I don't know why I didn't think of it myself, but THANK YOU for the insight. I appreciate the help very much

Printer not available officejet 6700

Trying to use "all in one" printer app to scan to Nook hd+ with latest software from B&N.
I can print from hp eprint app where printer is selected/available.
I have no problem using the app on my verizon samsung galaxy s4 with latest software.
On the nook, the printer is listed but cannot be selected. On the main page no printer is listed and it shows "printer unavailable".
Any advice?

Hello Suisun_Sue,
Welcome to the HP Support forums. I understand that you are unable to power on the Zeen from your Photosmart eStation printer.
Please follow the steps in the Resetting the HP eStation Zeen document. Once you have reset the zeen and are able to power it on, please follow the steps in the trouble shooting document titled The HP eStation Zeen (Detachable Control Panel) Lost the Wireless Network Connection.

I just recently purchased this e station. My printer says printer not available,

my baby grandson unplugged my printer the other day and ever since
the zeen acknowledges the wifi but the screen says that the printer
is unavailable. Also the pictures when I print them are dark. I'm
new to this e station printer.

Here's an old post (from doing a search)
The C4580 is not an AirPrint printer. HP has a list of their AirPrint printers here:
http://www.hp.com/go/airprint
and Apple has their list here:
http://www.apple.com/ipad/features/airprint.html
Your one choice is to connect your printer to your computer and then get an app for the computer that routes AirPrint jobs to the printer. On a mac, buy Printopia. Don't know about a PC.

Laptop (Running Windows 8.1) no longer able to print and now see message Active Directory Domain Services is not available

Have a very recent Lenovo Ideapad Laptop running Windows 8.1. Connected via USB port to HP LaserJet Pro CM1415 frw Color MFP Printer. Was able to print fine nearly 2 weeks ago, but something recently happened - either a new windows or office 2013 update
or perhaps I blew away a certain file by mistake. I can see the printer installed but cannot print to it from anything (Word, Notepad, IE, Firefox etc.). The one thing to note is that usually when I plug or unplug a USB related device, Windows 8.1 recognizes
this and makes a certain chime noise, but with the printer USB cable it never makes that noise - making me think that it never fully recognizes the printer. Also when I select the printer (from within the control panel) and right click for properties (via
admin rights) It never lets me fully connect to it.
I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services, etc. Its really annoying because this printer was working fine nearly 2
weeks ago. Looking for any advice now. Thanks.
-Chris

Hi Chris,
à
I have tried all the usual remedies - remove, install all drivers, reinstall printer, Windows update, start/stop print spooler and all other printer related services, etc.
I noticed that you had reinstalled the printer. Just a confirmation, when un-install this printer, please check
if this printer still exist in registry. For more details, please refer to following KB.
Registry entries for printing
If printer entry still exist in registry, please delete that printer entry and re-install this printer again,
then check if this issue still exists. (Please backup registry entries before operating registry. It will help us to avoid unexpected issue.)
àand now see

By the way, would you please let me know where/when get this
Active Directory Domain Services is not available error message? Or provide a screenshot of it?
