Printer Not Working After I Removed Paper Jammed Using Force

Hi!After years of never having this happen recently a paper jam occurred, and I pulled the sheet of paper out in the front using some force. Only now do I see on this forum that it is possible to remove the paper from the back. But since then the printer doesn't print anymore. It makes sounds, like something inside moves, and it seems to want to take in the paper, but that doesn't happen. The scan light moves a bit, but not to the end. The lights act differently than normal, as if something went haywire with the programming. Any way I can fix this?

Printer Not Working After I Removed Paper Jammed Using Some Force

I emailed a local repair shop who let me know they'll fix it for me for between €15-30 (Euros) depending. So problem solved.

Canon S750 printer not working after upgrading to Leopard

Leopard is brilliant, and everything works after I upgraded from Tiger except... my Canon S750 printer gives error messages and fails to print. This is VERY annoying. I can't seem to find an S750 driver for OS X 10.5 on Canon's web site. So, what to do next? Just wait, and keep logging on to Canon's web site in the hope that, one day, the driver will be there? I can't find any official statement from Canon as to what they're up to. Are they currently working on drivers for Leopard? Do they have any projected "release dates"? Are they at all interested, or would they prefer to sell me another printer perhaps? Any information on what I should do now will be gratefully received. Thanks.

UPDATE... my S750 printer has suddenly started to print OK! This is rather bizarre, since I've not re-booted, haven't un-installed/re-installed the printer. End of topic!

Windows Server 2012 Standard - HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus printer not working after promoting to Domain Controller / AD Services

An associate and myself installed the built-in drivers for the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus multi-function (network) printer on a Windows Server 2012 Standard server installation and everything worked fine whenever I want to print anything directly from the
Windows Server machine (there's a reason for this, so please understand that ;) ).
We were able to print without any problems from the Windows Server 2012 machine, using the drivers from Microsoft. Mainly, because HP has not listed any specific support for Windows Server 2012, only Windows Server 2008 R2, however, the drivers that
came with Windows 2012 seem to work very well.
PROBLEM: I later had to promote the Windows Server 2012 to a Domain Controller, and created the Active Directory configurations, even enabled the Print Services. After doing all of that, the HP printer will not print anything. It's like all print
requests directly from the Windows Server go to Nil.
Has anyone encountered a problem like this before? The only thing I can think of is that after perhaps something affected printing directly once we promoted the server to being a DC, and added other features / roles. I even tried installing the
HP drivers for Windows Server 2008 R2, and the results are still the same...nothing prints. Trust me, the printer is set as the Default Printer and even when choosing to print, we make sure the HP OfficeJet Pro is selected, and is on, as other Windows
Client PC's can print to it directly.
Does anyone have any suggestions we could try? Thanks in advance.

While it is quite a while since this was posted - I can concur a similar issue exists.
We have spent the better part of a day trying to work out why other HP printers work fine but our 8620 prints are not printing and going to Nil. The print server is hosted on a shared DC. Comparing to the initial posters details, for some reason
it seems to be most commonly related to the OfficeJet Pro 8600/8610/8620/8630 series printers.
I ended up doing a print server migration from the domain controller to stand alone host and all printers now work from a single server rather than a mix. Domain controller OSes varied from 2008, 2012, 2012 R2 (tested with multiple) and only after
all of those failed then tried a stand alone server os machine as a last resort which worked fine. Printing directly from Win 7 / 8 /8.1 clients to the IP always worked.

Epson printer not working after maverick 10.9.5 update

I recently updated my 2011 Macbook Pro with the OSX 10.9.5 software. Since then I have had a lot of trouble printing on my EPSON NX430 small in one wireless printer. I have tried deleting the printer from the printer list as well as removing the EPSON software, and re-downloading the EPSON print driver package from the apple website again. When I go to add the printer, in the print list, it seems to see it, but can't automatically find the print driver (I have to manually assign it.) When added the printer appears to be on "idle" and when I try to print the job seems to be sent though (the printer returns to idle) but nothing prints! I'm at my wits end with this - it is so annoying, and I've spent way too much time trying to troubleshoot. I do NOT recommend updating to Maverick!

Try some generic maintenance (we're trying to avoid reinstalling OS X):
Restart into Safe Mode, which does some system repairs. When it's finished, restart normally.
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
Next, Reset the Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
Now, add the printer in Print & Scan prefs.
(PS - even if this doesn't fix it, it eliminates many possible glitches for troubleshooting. The things you've done just scratched the surface.)
BTW - you didn't need to download the Epson package. The new Apple driver paradigm is that the driver is automagically installed when you add the printer in Print & Scan prefs. And if that doesn't work, you have other issues with OS X.

Quick Print not working after upgrading to Reader XI on Citrix

Hi,
I've upgraded from Reader 9.2 to 11.0 on our Citrix farm.
After the upgrade the Quick Print function in Outlook 2010 is not working anymore for PDF files. (other files are working fine)
Also, the RightClick --> Print on PDF files in Windows Explorer gives an open-with prompt. (other files are working fine)
Even if I choose Adobe Reader and chech the box "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file", the open-with prompt re-appears the next time I rightclick and choose print.
If I DoubleClick PDF files in Windows Explorer or in Outlook e-mail attachments, Reader opens as it should.
I've also tried to install the latest 11.4 update, without any luck.
The same installation sources were used on several local workstation, where everything is working fine after the upgrade.

It's definitely a Lion's issue as I rolled back to Snow Leopard after struggling with the card reader and surprise....all my cards can be seen again and my MacBook early 2010 works perfectly. Just as it was working before I purchased Lion. What to do? Well I guess there is only one way to fix the problem. We should demand from Apple to debug Lion from this and many other errors in the code. Overall I am not very impressed with my first Lion encounter and will stay on Snow Leopard untill people would be able at least to use the MacBook hardware properly under any Lion built. I have also had so many other issues with Lion that it may take a few hours to list and it's not a purpose of my visit of this thread. Cheers to all and stay cool.

Wireless printer not working after 10.5 upgrade

My Canon All-in one MP600 was working fine using 10.4.11 and Airport Extreme Base Station. I upgraded to 10.5.4 and now the printer does not work. I checked the Airport utility and the printer shows under printer. The printer works fine on my wife's MacBook. The old printer setup utility app is not present on 10.5. Am I missing something? I followed the instructions to install the wireless printer but it still does not work. It works fine when I use the USB cable directly to my powerbook G4.

Found problem. Removed printer from Sys Prefs -> Printers and Fax and re-installed it. Works now.

[SOLVED] Printer not working after reboots

I recently built my won desktop running Arch. Every thing works fine except for printer. Printer is Brother MFC-290c. It is a Multinational printer (i.e Scanner and printer together).
Once I configure the printer it works fine until the next reboot. After reboot printer user/group changes to root:scanner.
# ls -l /dev/bus/usb/005/002
crw-rw-r-- 1 root scanner 189, 513 Jun 9 07:17 /dev/bus/usb/005/002
So after every reboot I need to do "lsusb" to look for Bus and Device ID for the printer and change its owner/group to root:lp. After this step is performed Printer works fine until next reboot.
$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 04f9:01fd Brother Industries, Ltd
Bus 005 Device 004: ID 045e:00f9 Microsoft Corp. Wireless Desktop Receiver 3.1

Bus 010 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 011 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
How can I make sure that whenever I plugin this printer its user and group is root:lp instead of root:scanner

SOLVED :D:D:D
Thanks Strike0. That was a push in right direction. After reading your reply, I decided to take a look at my udev rules. There was not one for my printer but there was one for the Scanner. I do not yet know how to read udev file, but sure enough it looked as if it was causing all problems . Renamed the rules file for the scanner to see if everything works fine in its absence. Rebooted, Printer and scanner are both working fine now.

Trackpad/point not working after keyboard removal

Earlier today I opened up my T510 for maintanence. In doing so, I removed the keyboard. After putting everything back together, the trackpoint/trackpad did not work. That includes the the **bleep**-mouse, trackpad, and all mouse buttons. The trackpad wasn't even removed, but I guess the data connection for that goes through the rest of the keyboard (?).
I took the keyboard out several times to make sure the connection was secure and inspect for physical damage. There was nothing.
The obvious thing to do here is replace the keyboard and desperately hope that the problem is not with the mobo connector, but the problem is sufficently strange (keyboard working but not mouse) thatI figured it would be worth posting here to see if anyone has any insight.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Solved.
As I mentioned in the last post, the trackpad connects to the mobo through the cable labled as a speaker wire in the manual (this can be easily seen after removing the keyboard bezel/trackpad from the machine). There is a small latch to hold this cable in place on the mobo end. I had mixed up the secured and unsecured states for this latch, which apparently broke the connection. Fixed that now and everything works.
It's probably worth explicitly pointing out that the **bleep**-mouse and mouse buttons on the keyboard do seem to be depenent on the trackpad being properly plugged in, despite having a seperate connection to the mobo.

Printer not working after 10.6.8 update

Hi,
My printer was working fine until I updated my imac to 10.6.8.
Now, i have been getting this error whenever i try to print:
Error:/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpII.app/Contents/ MacOS/rastertoescpII failed
I have an Epson stylus PHOTO RX640.
Im not sure about the driver as i havent needed to download a driver manually, before when I first tried the printer(before update) it automatically worked and printed and didnt ask me anything about drivers..
I tried deleting my print queue, restarting everything, changed my printer to factory settings. (I've looked on other places and i wasnt sure what it meant bby manually adding printer queue..?o.O)
My printer only doesnt want to print. it scans fine, just doesnt print.
HELP PLEASEEE

I don't think that it was the 10.6.8 update. There was an update to the Epson drivers that came out only a couple of days before 10.6.8 became available. You most likely installed the Epson 2.7 drivers along with 10.6.8. That version of the Epson drivers will not work with your printer. See my post in a similar thread on how to revert back to the Epson 20.6 drivers.

Why does printer not work after network password changed?

I changed the password on my Airport Extreme (5th Gen) which is connected to an iMac,base, and now my HP Photosmart C4750 will not print. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the printer software using the original HP printer CD. The error message "The selected WI-Fi Network "network name" is not within the reach of the device." Do I have to change the password back in order for it to work on my wireless?
Appreciate any assistance.

Hi,
The software provided for Mountain Lion does not offer any wireless configuration, therefore it may not work well on the OS.
Connect the printer to the network through the EWS by following the steps below:
Step one: Restore the printer's network default settings
Touch the ATM button () next to Wireless / Scan .
Touch the ATM button () next to Wireless Menu
Touch the ATM button () next to Wireless Settings .
Use the up and down ATM buttons () to select Restore Network Defaults , and then press OK .
Touch the ATM button () next to Yes to confirm your selection.
Step two: create a temporary network connection with the printer to access its EWS
Click the Wi-Fi icon on your Mac.
Click on Join Other Networks.
Click on Show Networks.
Select the HPSETUP network and click on Connect
Allow 2-3 minutes to establish the connection.
Step three: Follow the Wireless Setup Wizard from teh EWS
Open Safari and click the Bookmarks icon, select Bonjour from that window
Note: if the Bonjour option is missing under the Bookmarks menu click on Safari > Preferences > Bookmarks and check the Bonjour box within the Collections section.
From Bonjour double click the C4750. the EWS appears.
Open the Networking tab.
Click on Wireless.
Click the Start Wizard button on the bottom right side of that screen and follow the steps to connect the printer to your network.
Once you are done, reconnect your Mac to your home network by following step two but selectng your home network.

Printer not working after changing network to public IP from bridge

I had my TimeCapsule reset to change my network connection sharing from Bridge mode to Share a public IP address, and now the printer does not work anymore. Can someone help me to set it up again? Thank you in advance!

You may have turned off DHCP on your network. What's your DHCP server now that the TC is in Bridge Mode? How is the printer connected to the network? How is the computer connected to the network? What are the IP addresses of the assorted devices on the network, Time Capsule, computer, printer, router, modem, anything else?

Printer Not Working After Update

I saw an auto update from HP that popped up and stated it was to correct current reading errors in the hp printer from the computer? I NEVER update my printer hardly ever because I KNOW that HP has a reputation for messing up with messages about ink etc. BUT, I went ahead with this one, just in case! NOW my printer won't print anything from my laptop, and I am so pissed because I was in the middle of a printing project and my printer was working JUST fine until I did the update! I swear, I will now have to go buy a NEW FRICKING PRINTER when it was working perfect a few minutes ago!!! GUESS WHAT, I will never by HP printers again!!!! I have the HP Photo Smart Plus, and it is wireless, and it is about two years old, got it in around 2009. It always says it's out of ink but yet continues to print just fine for several months over when it says I should replace the ink. Hmmmmmmm. Now this!!!!! What am I supposed to do??? HP isn't going to answer this. Looks like they set up this conversation to just get FEEDBACK from the public? I don't have the time to wait for a response from the public or to try and call someone at some odd number and wait on the hold for two hours. My job is in two hours and I needed my work printed before I went.. I AM PISSSSSED!!!!! How can I ever TRUST HP again!!!!!! I could never do an UPDATE with you eVER!!!!! YOU CRASHED MY PRINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did I mention how mad I am????? I am going to tell the world about this!!! You know why??? You don't care, and you will just ignor this!!!!! Norine Mungo

Running the diagnostics at http://www.hp.com/go/tools may help resolve the issue.
In the future please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? What operating system? Are there any error messages on the printer or computer screen?
Please be aware that this forum is a peer to peer support forum, it is not a direct link to HP support. Likely if you had called HP your issue could have been resolved in one phone call....
