Printer wireless pages waste paper and ink

I just attached my new laptop to the wireless printer and each print adds a statistic report about what has been printed.This does not occur in the usb connection.
I don't need to waste paper or ink.
I only see fax report settings with scrolling through using the arrows.
How do I turn off wireless printer page report?

Hi @treat2day,
I see by your post that the printer is printing out a statistic page after every print job is sent by the wireless connection.
I can help you with this.
Update the printer's firmware. HP Officejet Pro 8600 e-All-in-One Printer - N911a Drivers.
Select your operating system, click next, click the link for firmware.

I print 2 pages to pdf and file size is 600k, I print 1 additonal page and file size goes to 6M, what would cause this (graphics are same on all pages)

I print 2 pages to pdf and file size is 600k, I print 1 additonal page and file size goes to 6M, what would cause this (graphics are same on all pages).
I know the colour graphic shading in the document that causes the issue of larger file size, but it doesn't make sense that printing 1 additional page with same information as first 2 pages would cause this.

I cannot print certain pages from websites while in Firefox. I have checked my printer by printing the pages in IE and they work. Please help

I cannot print certain web pages while in Firefox. It is not a printer problem as I checked by printing the pages in IE and they print fine.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

I have reset the selected printer in my Firefox preferences as described in the link that was sent from the-edmeister.
I am still having problems printing. All I see in the print preview is the address link on top of the page and that is all that prints.
I have tried using the print-selection also with no luck.
My printer works with any other application such as Word or Excel.
This all started after I updated Firefox to Ver. 3.6.3
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Stop print test page for HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515 All-in-One Printer

How do I stop my HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515 All-in-One Printer from printing a test page every time I STARTED printing????
This question was solved.

Hello JoshSimon ,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with the printer printing off a test page before printing.
If you are shutting the printer off at the end of the day, please don't. Turning the printer on and off will result in it printing off a test page. If you are concerned about the printer wasting power and this is why you are shutting down, the unit actually has a built in sleep/stand by mode that will kick in when the printer is not being used.
Once a print job is sent to the printer it will then wake up and do the task at hand.
Also, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.

How do i get Firefox to print web pages in black and white only (colors are interpreted in grayscale and some are too light to be read)?

i have a black and white laser printer. Firefox prints web pages by sending color images to my printer. The printer uses greyscale to interpret the colors. i really want Firefox to send black and white images to my printer, because with greyscale some of the colors are translated to print that is too light to be seen clearly.
Can this be done?
Thanks,
Chazbo

i just tried disabling adblock and checking if i had any no script or noscript sort of addon. i do not have a script killer. disabling adblock did not solve the issue.

C5280 prints black page when copying and scanning

Can anybody help please.
C5280 prints a black page when I want to copy or scan but it prints ok from the computer. The light seems to be working on it. I am unable to reinstall with the disc as the CD drive is not working now. Does it need to be reinstalled.
Thanks for any help possible.

Hi @Dani77 ,
I see by your post that you are getting a black page when copying and scanning from the printer. You can print fine and you updated the HP software, the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet and you have the same results.
I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
I wasn't sure whether you just updated the printer software on the printer or the firmware.
If you haven't already, please update the printer's firmware. HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf Multifunction Printer Drivers.
Disconnect the USB or Ethernet cable from the printer.
Make sure the printer is still connected directly to a 3 prong wall outlet.
Try making a copy with a blank sheet.
If the output is blank, then try and copy a text document.
I will send you another step to try in a private message.
In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet)
Please let me know the outcome.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Printer wireless for Mac Pro and I pad.?

Need to get a printer wireless for Mac Pro also can be use with the IPad this is possible? Thank you

Any of the current HP e-Print capable printers support AirPrint capabilities without even having to enable the e-Print stuff that's purely HP.
Also, make sure your exisiting network router at home supports multicast protocols. The majority of retail routers support this and you won't have issues, but I've run into problems with carrier issued modem/router combo units from Comcast made by Arris that don't support multicast and other protocols and hence, will not allow for the necessary discovery protocols for AirPrint to work across the wired or wireless network. In cases like that, the fix is to place those units in "bridge mode" and then use your own router behind it that doesn't restrict that capability. Just FYI.

Printer will print wirelessly from my iphone and not my laptop!

Specs:
Printer - Photosmart D110a
Operating System - Windows 7 64 Bit
laptop - toshiba if that's relavent
So when I got my printer, I'd like to say around two years ago, it was working fine. I don't recall when or why it stopped printing wirelessly, but at the time I was too caught up in my school work and extracurriculars to have time to try to fix it. There is no error message really. I have tried reconnecting it to my router and the connection is totally fine! The other day my mom printed off something from her iphone and that really ground my gears because I just can't figure out what's wrong with my printer!
The solution center just says that my printer is disconnected until I plug it in with a usb I have.
I think wireless printing is really cool and I paid for a wireless printer so I might as well fix it. Help is appreciated Thanks!

What router?

How can I print a selection in Firefox 11 without it wasting paper and printing blank space in place of the non-selected material?

In Firefox 10 and before, I could select a small portion of a web page and it would print the selected portion on a single page. In Firefox 11, it prints blank space for the portion above my selection before printing my selection. This blank space could span several pages, and my printer prints those several blank pages with only headers and footers.

Still happens with Firefox 12. I wish they'd just fix it, the way it used to be in Firefox 10, without the complicated workaround suggested above.

How to test java printing program without wasting paper?

Hi,
I had written a java program that prints my document. I want to know how people test their printing document generatation program?
Because I think people don;t wastes papers..
So can anyone tell me to test these programs efficiently and preciesly what are the best testing tools available ?
Thank you.

1) find a program that prints to pdf, or some other file
2) print to pdf or some other file instead of printing to a printer.
3) To test it perfectly you will eventually have to waste some paper.

Printing to a C3180 printer wirelessly from a macbook and windows XP PC

OK, this is crazy. I followed the steps ifelix outlined in his links, and much to my satisfaction, everything worked great.......for about a week. Suddenly, I cannot print to the HP anymore from either the macbook wirelessly (I get the 10.0.1.1. is busy message), or the windows XP PC connected to the Airport! If I attach the printer directly to each computer, it functions fine. Any thoughts? I cannot understand why it worked for a while and then suddenly..poof!

Have you tried deleting from Printer Setup and re-Adding?

Summarize Comments or Print With Comments -- Wasting Paper

In 6.x pro, when I would summarize (or print with) comments and connector lines on a single page, the output file (or printed output) would include only those pages with comments. In 7.0, you get a page that says "no comments on this page."
It would be nice to have the option of not printing pages without comments. If you have a book, finding the one or two pages with comments can be a pain.

I've developed a tool that allows a much more efficient comments summary to be created.
Have a look here and contact me by email if you're interested in it:

Officejet Pro 8620 cannot print without page number, date and time stamps

I have just bought this printer and spent a few days trying to get to grips with it. I managed to solve one problem when I could not access the printing preferences by reinstalling the driver. I cannot remove the print page number and date and time stamps from a print. Please help!

I have managed to solve this by changing page settings. These were oddly reset when the printer was installed.

My HP Laser Jet P1006 Printer ran out of paper and it does not recognize that I have paper in it? I

What do I do to let it know that it has paper. I have turned it off & put paper in and out?

Hey , Welcome to the HP forums! I hope you enjoy your stay here. I see that you are having issues with installing your Laserjet CM1415fnw on your Windows 7 PC. I can certainly help with that. First, since you said that the install is timing out, we're going to remove the print queue. To do so:If the printer is connected through a USB cable then remove the USB cable.Click on Start and open Devices and Printers.In this window right click on any listed printers and click on Remove Device.Now we'll do a few things that may help with the install.Click on Start and type in cmd where it says "Search Programs and Files". Now click enter.In this window type in msiexec /unregister and click enter.Now type msiexec /regserver and click enter.To make sure we're using the latest drivers click on this link to download the latest drivers.Once it's downloaded try installing.If this works then please let other forum users know by clicking on Accept as Solution below this post. If this does not work then please let me know if you see any errors or provide more details about what happens when you install so I'll have a better idea of how to help you further.
I hope this helps and I hope you have a great weekend!
