Printing interrupted (with HP LaserJet 1022)

Hello,
I've recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. Since doing so, my printer (a HP LaserJet 1022, bought with my Mac from Apple) has been working only intermittently.
If I print a document, from any application, of more than one page, it'll only print the odd pages and will stop some way through printing those odd pages and the lights on the top of the printer will start flashing red. (I have checked the settings and they're set to print all pages, not just the odd ones.) The only way to move on is to switch the printer off and on again.
This means that 1) I can only print one page at a time and 2) that every few pages or so, I have to switch the printer off and back on.
Does anyone know what's going wrong or what I can do to fix the problem? I thought the SL installer updated my printer driver.
Thanks, in advance, for your help.
Jonathan.

HP has simply abandoned the 1022 printer on Snow Leopard. For a time there was a HP software engineer posting here, gathering information from users, advising us that they were working on the 1022 driver. He even sent a beta driver to several people with specific problems. Then he suddenly disappeared and we haven't seen or heard from him since. My 1022 works fine with the Snow Leopard supplied driver, except for the manual duplex option which no longer exists. Others report that their 1022 only prints every other page or stops after a couple of pages. There is a very long thread here about the 1022 problems. The HP guy's name was Andrew but, as I said, he vanished. 1022 owners were starting to get testy and frustrated so maybe he just got tired of trying to help.
As for me, I will never buy an HP printer again because of this abandonment.

Printing Problem with HP LaserJet 1022 and OS 10.4

I am having a problem printing one page of a document on my HP LaserJet 1022 with OS 10.4. All other documents seem to be printing fine, but when I try to print one particular page of a 90 page WORD doc, that page consistently comes out with a big black streak across it and it does something to the printer because all the lights start flashing.
I have powered off, unplugged, reset the printer subsystem, reinstalled the printer driver, and even tried to print on my laptop, and the same thing keeps happening. The document printed for me fine a few weeks ago.
Any suggestions on a work-around for this or a permanent solution? I really need to print this page on my printer ASAP. Thank you.

The page looks perfect in preview and as a PDF. I can't print from the PDF, however, because it shrinks the text and expands the margins ...
Something's fishy. Save as PDF should result a file that looks exactly, precisely, like what you'd get if you printed directly to your printer.
I suspect your Word document has been corrupted by a few bytes of random data that is causing your printer to go nuts. Try cutting that portion out of the document, and pasting it in a new blank document so you can incrementally isolate the damage.
This isn't going to be as easy as it sounds, because when the PostScript printer driver encounters the errant code in the Word document, it's essentially telling the printer "now, go to the top of this page, print a nasty black smudge, and then crash." You might have to cut a whole page before and after the suspected corruption. If you're lucky you might be able to cut the portion then paste it right back as "unformatted text". Try that.

Printing files to HP laserjet 1022

I have had problems with printing to a HP laserjet 1022 printer ever since I installed Snow Leopard. I did not have any problems with printing under Leopard.
1. Now whenever I try to print a word document or a PDF document, it would print only odd number pages and skip even number pages. Only very rarely does it prints all the pages without skipping.
2. When a document finishes printing, sometimes it is not cleared/dropped from the print queue, so that when I send a second document to the printer, it starts to print the 1st document again. I have to manually delete the 1st document to prevent it from printing again.
I have tried to download and install the latest printer driver for this printer from HP, but it does not seem to solve the problem.
Thanks.

There was just an update of HP printer drivers the other day.

Printing problems with hp laserjet cp1515n [found problem]

Dear Arch users,
A couple of weeks ago I installed for the first time an Arch linux on my brand new Dell laptop with an UEFI MB. It took a while until I could understand how UEFI works but eventually I sort it out and got Arch installed. Unfortunatelly there are some small problems to be straiten out. One of them is the fact that printing with my laser printer (see subject line) is not working.
for the last couple of days I was searching through all post I could find around on the internet, mainly here at the Arch forum. Unfortunatelly I could not find anything nearly describing what I am living on my system. Well here is a brief description of what is happening. After installing Arch, I opted for KDE desktop environment and I made the full instalation. After installing additional software (gimp, inkskape, etc.) I needed to install my printer. At first I couldn't get permission. Than reading the Arch tutorial for CUPS, I saw that the 'lp' permission was not setup properly. Well Have done as described there. Then I tryed to install using the GUI from KDE for installing an usb printer and for my surprise there was not such an option. I intalled than de hp-toolbox, and than it was easy to install the printer. It was automatically recognized and everything was there. The problem was, when I open an archive (text, web page, doesn't matter) and send it to print, the spooler went well theoretically sent to printer and then popped up a notification saying printing finished. Opening the printing cue, I can see that the archive was still there and marked as pending. That was the point where I started to search around for potential solutions or similar solutions.
After sudying a lot I came to a conclusions that it probably have something to do with permissions. Unfortunately I could not find out where or which permissions to change in order to get something printed. I found some "debugging" and information commands and I am posting the results here;

OK here am I again.
as mentioned before I created an bogus printer with:
lpadmin -p test -v file:/dev/null
verified the presence of the printer;
lpstat -p
$ lpstat -p
printer Color_LaserJet_cp1515n disabled since Fri 01 Feb 2013 02:55:59 PM BRST -

printer test is idle. enabled since Fri 01 Feb 2013 02:54:57 PM BRST
At first "test" printer was disabled for an uknown reason.
tried to use lpadmin -p test to enable the printer as described on the previusly mentioned web site, but couldn't get to enable printer "test". After reading alittle more on the internet I found the command cupsenable <printer> and indeed it changed the printer status.
tried to print;
echo test | lp -d test
result:
$ echo test | lp -d test
lp: Destination "test" is not accepting jobs.
I tried to change the condition of the Color laser printer but did not made any difference with the cups command.
Conclusion: how can I modify this status to make the printer accept jobs?

Printing problem with HP LaserJet Printer since Mavericks Installed

Hello,
I'm working on iMac and I have recently installed OSX Mavericks.
I have now printing troubles with my printer HP LaserJet P1102w.
Sometimes it prints, sometimes it doesn't.
When it doesn't print I often need to suppress the file in the printer task and then print again. And there it works.
I have tried to solve the problem by installing all the HP drivers, and also made a Reset printing system, but it does'nt change anything.
Any Idea ?
Thank you for any help.

Printing problems with HP Laserjet P2015DN

We are using SAP Business One software and are trying to print Delivery Slips using HP Laserjet P2015DN. The problem we have is when we use this printer it prints boxes around the entry fields. I have tried several drivers but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am using a print server with 2003 opreating system
Thanks Jim Dyer

JIm,
When you say it prints boxes around the entry fields, do you mean for all reports? If only selected reports have the boxes, check the border for entry fields
Thanks,

Cannot print duplex with hp laserjet 1536dnf mfp

I am using a HP LaserJet 1536 dnf MFP printer in Windows 8.1 with USB 2 connection. Cannot print on both sides of sheet because clicking on print properties does not bring up the properties dialog window. There is a momentary flicker as though it is trying to activate, but no window. It worked fine until a few days ago and I can't think of any change that might account for this. Any help with this problem will be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Marlin1 ,
I understand that you are having issues duplexing, the printer properties aren't opening to make any changes. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
You can always restore your computer back to a earlier time when everything was working properly. It may have been from a Windows Update. How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC on Windows 8.
If you would prefer not to do the System Restore, you can try the following steps provided:
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
Uninstall and reinstall the printer software.
Uninstalling the Printer Software.

If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
Have a nice day!

Printing problem with HP LASERJET P1007

SINCE I UPGRADED TO MAS OS X SNOW LEOPARD I AM NOT ABLE TO PRINT TO MY HP LASERJET P1007 CONNECTED TO AIRPORT EXPRESS. KINDLY HELP

HP LaserJet 1020 Wi-Fi SOLUTION (after 10.6.3 update)
Our 1020 stopped printing via Airport . . .
SOLUTION:
* Take usb printer cable from Airport base, and plug into Mac
* "Add Printer" in System Preferences
* Choose "HP Laserjet xxx.224" driver (tip: type digits of your printer model ## in search bar to find more quickly)
* Test print via the USB
* Return usb cable to the Airport base
This worked for us; your mileage may vary . . .

Leopard printing problems with HP Laserjet 5000

Hi to anyone who might be able to help.
I've just installed Leopard, and now my HP 5000 Laserjet (hooked up via ethernet) will not print. When I print, the computer says it is printing, but the printer never prints anything, and even though the printer shows up in the print window, the computer never actually finds the printer. I have downloaded the latest driver from the HP web site, which hasn't helped at all....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Angus

Hi Gus1,
Since it's hooked up via Ethernet, I assume then it's a 5000N? We have one of those and it works just fine in Leopard. So there must be something wrong in your setup. Two things you can try.
1) It's an old, kind of slow protocol, but it works. Turn on AppleTalk. It's in the System Preferences under the Network tab. Choose "Ethernet" in the left pane. Click the "Advanced" button. Click on the AppleTalk tab and turn on the check box for "Make AppleTalk Active". Choose "Print & Fax" in the System Preferences and remove any entries for the 5000. Click the Add button and then the Default button. The 5000 should show up and show AppleTalk as its connection. Choose it and click Add.
2) On the printer. Press the Menu button to the right once so the display reads, "Information Menu". Press the Item button twice to the right so the display reads, "Print Configuration". Press the Select button. The printer will kick out two sheets. On the first page under the "Printer Information" heading is the IP address for your printer. It's the second entry from the bottom labeled, "HP JetSend Address: ip: 192.168.5.6 (your actual address will of course be different).
In the "Print & Fax" heading of the System Preferences, remove any entries for the 5000. Click the Add button and then the IP button. Under the Protocol pull down menu, choose "HP Jet Direct - Socket". Under "Address:", enter the IP address on your printout, like my example of 192.168.5.6. Under "Name:", put in something meaningful, like "HP LaserJet 5000N". Assuming you have the PPD installed, then under "Print Using:' choose "HP LaserJet 5000 Series". Click the Add button.

Printing With HP LaserJet 1022 Has Stopped!

Hi All,
I have had my Express and HP printer for a year never had any problems, my configuration is this. My AirPort Express connects to my wireless NETGEAR router, my HP is plugged into the AirPort Express. Yesterday I changed the password on the router and had to reconfigure the AirPort since then all **** has broken lose... I just cannot print, the printer can't be found or added! How is this even possible, if nothing has changed and it was all working before!? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

HP has simply abandoned the 1022 printer on Snow Leopard. For a time there was a HP software engineer posting here, gathering information from users, advising us that they were working on the 1022 driver.

Cannot print with HP Laserjet 1022 when connected with USB to Time Capsule

Installed HP drivers
Connected HP 1022 (not the network printer) with USB to Time Capsule
Printer appears in "Standard" section of printers, marked with Bonjour
Correct driver is selected
When printing, printer appears to be connected. Printer queue shows the item being managed and no errors are posted. After a rather long time, the print disappears into the void. This goes for the test page too.
Connected the printer directly to my iMac with USB, no problems at all.
I would prefer to have it connected to the Time Capsule though...
Bjarne Havnen

Getting it to work with Windows is super-easy. You'll need to install the printer's drivers and Bonjour for Windows ( http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/windows/bonjourforwindows.html ). Install both of those, open Bonjour, select the printer, done.
I have no experience with Linux, sorry.

Printing problem with HP Laserjet 2600n

I recently bought a HP LaserJet 2600n and connected it to my router. It worked! I could print from it using my laptop. That was yesterday. Now for some reason it doesn't work. CUPS just says completed as soon as I send it. It can connect, because there are no error messages. Can someone help me fix this? I'm using the foo2zjs drivers from the AUR. I even made it print colour! I am really confused why this isn't working...
EDIT: Seems it works with Abiword...?? Yesterday it worked with my KDE4 apps and not Abiword. I'm confused!

Printing problem with HP laserjet 1100A after upgrading to Mac OS Maverick

Good afternoon,
I have always been able to use my HP Laserjet 1100A with my iMac till I upgraded to Mac OS Maverick.
After giving a printing order just one order will be carried out.
In case I have 3 printjobs I have te restart the iMac twice to carry out all the print jobs.
I am using USB for connection.
When I use the printer with my Windows computer (Windows 7) there is no problem at all with the required printjobs.
I guess the driver Gutenprint v5.2.3 is the cause of the problem.
Is there a new printerdriver available?
Thanks in advance.
Fred

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
I have provided the HP LaserJet 1100 All-in-One Printer series Support page.

Printing problem with HP Laserjet 2550

I have an HP Laserjet 2550 which is having problems with my Macbook Pro with 10.6.3
Snow Leopard has the drivers for the HP 2550. So when I added the printer it picked up the drivers.
The problem I am having is that it send the job to the printer but the printer does not print it. When I restart the printer on startup it prints the job. I have to do this every time.
Is the problem with the Mac or the printer?

Have you run Software Update to check that you have the latest HP drivers? They have done a couple of revisions since SL was released. Of course, if you are still running 10.6.3 SU will come up with many other updates some of which might be relevant to the problem.
You might also do some maintenance - repair permissions, etc. This could make a difference. There are lots of other steps that might be taken but try these first.
