Printing to HP 4250 via IP Address

I am unable to print to a HP Laserjet 4250 in Windows 7 64-bit.
Here are the steps I have gone through:
1 - install using the default printer driver included with Win7 (PCL6) everything installs - will not print test page (error pronting in jobs )
2 - install using the default printer driver included with Win7 (PCL5) everything installs - will not print test page (error pronting in jobs )
3 - install using the default printer driver included with Win7 (PS) everything installs - will not print test page (error pronting in jobs )
In between each failure, I uninstalled
4 - Download updated drivers from HP for all of the above, same result
- Installed as a local printer to a TCP/IP Port
- AM able to Ping the printer
- AM able to connect to the printer via explorer and see it's management page
- Have tried with and without WIndows Firewall enabled
- I was able to print from teh same computer previously in Windows XP 32-bit (however this was going through a server print queue)
- Are there any logs that can help to identify this issue. I see nothing in the event viewer

see as you followed above expects views.....still your facing the issues means, may its the printer queue problem, printing pending works are not allowing for more printing under waiting process. once try that too...as all issues will be fixed by driver
update, once again try to upgrade with latest drivers of hp 4250 with win 7. as i went with some resource for fixing issues on different issues. you may resolve those type in future too. once try that one too.

HP 6500 printer not working anymore via Time Capsule

I used a Linksys access point, and all my printers and Airport Express were working fine.
But since I swapped my Linksys WRT160N v2 access point with the Apple Time Capsule, my HP 6500 printer cannot be installed anymore on my iMac.
I have a very flat network :
Telenet router connected to internet, other side : wired Time Capsule (and then wireless to my iMac, iPhones, iPad and Airport Express), wired ethernet switch with wired Brother Laser printer and wired HP 6500 printer. All having fixed IP addresses (except of course the iPhones and iPad).
When adding the HP printer the iMac system finds the printer as "Officejet 6500 E710n-z (59F608)", but gives an error "Unable to communicate with the printer".
And to make it totally weird : I'm perfectly able to address the printer from the iMac via ip address in Safari !!
No double IP addresses are used in the network : swapped the network already several times with different tools.
Regaring the Airport Express, I cannot set it up again, the light flashes and is not recognised anymore.
My biggest concern is the HP printer ... weird ...
Please advise !
tx a million

Did you completely remove all earlier instances of the printer and even its drivers. If not do so.. after reboot of the iMac download direct from HP any new drivers they may have and reinstall. We have seen it on other occasions.. it is very stubborn if it has any previous setup or drivers.
When you swap the two routers.. are you keeping the old IP addressing scheme.. ie moving TC from its default 10.0.1.1 to the Linksys standard 192.168.1.1 .. as occasionally again.. devices can sometimes be finiky off their default.

OSX 10.5.4 printing to HP Deskjet via USB on Time Capsule

Mac has a problem printing to a Deskjet 6122 connected USB to a Time Capsule. The Time Capsule is set up as a LAN wireless access point to the ISP.
Wireless clients are:
1. Macbook with Leopard OSX V10.5.4. All OSX updates were applied Dec 5, 2008 in the shop when the Mac got a new HDD and the Leopard upgrade.
2. A Windows Vista box (Time Capsule runs 802.11g because of the wireless adapter in this box).
Printers on the LAN are:
1. HP Deskjet 6122 connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule, and
2. HP Laserjet 1022NW connected Ethernet to the Time Capsule.
Printer sharing is OFF for both printers/clients
Addition of both printers to the Mac was normal. +*But when printing multiple page documents to the Deskjet 6122, the Mac only prints one page*+ (the last one) without error message of any kind. The Mac’s driver version for this printer is 3.3.3. I deleted the printer from the Mac and re-added it – same problem. I followed the procedure in “Printer Troubleshooting for Airport Base Stations and Time Capsule” – same problem.
The Mac prints all pages of multiple page documents to the Laserjet 1022. The Windows box prints all pages of multiple page documents to both printers.
Any ideas?

Thanks Greg.
I don't want to hijack RetP3Pilot's thread, but I may be having a similar issue.
I've recently been experiencing a "connection failure" error when trying to print to my HP Deskjet 950 connected to a Time Capsule via Bonjour. I tried your suggestion of using the latest Gutenprint driver and adding the printer via IP Address. It appears to connect but anything I send to it stalls at 24% and there is no visible activity going on with the printer. ANy suggestions are welcome.
Again, sorry to hijack the thread. Let me know if you'd rather I start a new one.

Trouble printing to a parallel printer over a router via a print server

My G5 and my Windows laptop once happily coexisted (past tense) using a Linksys Cable/DSL Router (BEFSR41) which also fed a Linksys PPSK1 10/100 Ethernet Print Server connected to my trusty dusty NEC SuperScript 1800, one of the greatest monochrome laser printers ever made (1200 DPI and lightning fast!) featuring only a parallel interface. This nifty arrangement allowed me to print over the router and through the print server to the Superscript. Then one fateful day, OS X 10.4.1 installed itself on the G5 via Software Update. This most recent OS had some kind of personal problem with the Linksys router and nothing I did could not settle their petty squabble. After 45 minutes on the phone with a Linksys guy named "Raj" I gave up. I bought a NetGear Cable/DSL Router (RP614) and magically, my PC and my Mac started getting along, happily cruising the net together once again. But the Linksys print server must have gotten jealous: He refused to work with the new Netgear in town. I have now laid the foundation for my question: Does anyone know how I might get the Linksys Print Server to play nice and let documents printed over the Netgear router find their way to the NEC Superscript?
Thanks loads.

Greg,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I added another printer using LDP protocol, specified the address as 192.168.1.100, Identified the que as "LPT", then, on a hunch, clicked the "More Printers" button. The dialog box defaults to AppleTalk in the Local AppleTalk Zone and after a brief moment the "Name" of the printer appeared as SCF** (Hex) which, lo and behold, is the name of the PPSX1 as printed on the bottom of the device! At this point I selected the NEC's PostScript print driver and VOILA! Super duper 1200 DPI PostScript output, just like the old days!
Man...whew! Thanks again. Your Guru status is well-deserved.
Regards,
Bill

Problems printing from OS-X via timecapsule (Airport extreme)

Just bought 500GB Time Capsule with my Macbook Pro and Brother HL-2070N. I have connected the printer via Cat 5 and provided it a static IP of 10.0.1.199 (airport is 10.0.1.1).
I can print a test page via the Brother BRAdmin software tool, which means I am talking to the printer. When I create the printer under the System Preferences (printers & faxes), it 'validates' the printer address and does not give an error message.
HOWEVER, when I try to print using this 'named' printer using the OS-X print option on word or safari, it spools the job but shows the status as STOP. I press PAUSE and RESTART in the printer spool status box, and get a response that "Cannot resume client connection error".
Any suggestions on how to print using Cat 5 and Time Capsule?
thanks

Hi,
Apple's AirPrint only support specific models while using wired or wireless network connection.
Plugging a printer into a USB port of Apple base is not supported for AirPrint:
AirPrint printers connected to the USB port of the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsules are not supported with AirPrint.
As well you must use AirPrint enabled printers for a such, none of your printers are AirPrint enabled:

There are 3rd party solutions which allow sharing a printer connected to your Mac as AirPrint, Printopia as example provide a such:

Can't print from iBook G4 via Windows XP to an HP PSC 1410

Hello,
I realize this question is very similar to others on this discussion but I haven't been able to find an answer to my problem.
I cannot print from my iBook via XP to an HP PSC 1410.
I can print from my iBook via XP to an HP LaserJet 4L.
I was able to print from my iBook via XP to an HP882C that was connected
to the same USB port that the HP PSC 1410 is connected to now.
I have an iBook G4 running 10.4.3
I have a PC running XP with an HP LaserJet 4L on a parallel port and an HP PSC 1410 on a USB port.
I installed the following from http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/hpijs/
hpijs-foomatic-2.02.ppc.dmg
espgs-7.07.1.ppc.dmg
HP-PSC_1400-hpijs.ppd
I think I correctly followed the instructions at:
http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3015.html
They worked for the LaserJet printer.
When I attempt to print from the iBook to the 1410 the HP doesn't print at all.
I don't see any error messages on the iBook. The document gets spooled onto the Windows print spooler, the printer even starts making noises, the print heads move about a bit and then stop. The print job just sits there in the queue with a status of "Printing". The print job is then stuck and hard to delete.
I don't need to be able to scan or check ink levels from the iBook.
I would just like to be able to do color printing.
What else should I try? Given the symptoms where might I be going wrong?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3) 1 Gig RAM

Hi all,
I finally figured out what the issue was, Why it fixes it I can not say,
but it does.
On the Shared printer on the Windows side, go to the properties of the Printer.
Go to the Ports tab, and deselect the "Enable bidirectional Support" (do not
have it checked). Once this is done and you also do not have any firewalls
setup on the Windows machine (Windows, MCAfee, Norton, ....). You should be
able to print.
Finally!!!!! I hope this helps many many people. As I have had many
people asking for the solution if I found it.
Thanks,
Steven Stuart

How do I print envelopes for everyone in my address book?

How do I print envelopes for everyone in my address book? It seems so simple but after half an hour... no joy!!

I have spent most of the morning in a frustrating search of a way to print labels for my contacts. I have a couple of problems. I want to send every label to a different person at the same address. I have hundreds to do and most of them do not have a mailing address so I tried to do a bulk change of the address ... without manually changing every contact there is no way to do this. I've tried to create a template with a table (10x2) and added merge fields to each of the cells but when I do a mail merge all I get are hundreds of pages with a page dedicated to each contact whereas I want to merge on a cell by cell level, i.e. 20 different contacts on the same page.
How do I do this? I can't find label style that is appropriate and I'm not sure how to create one with 10 by 2 labels per page.
Help!

HP LaserJet P1505n Printer frequently loses assigned static IP address and goes offiline

We have replaced printer several times, assigned printer static ip to eliminate network related issues. Ran, Scan Doctor;
- reinstalled printer drivers
- power cyled printer
- check for network connectivity
- Printer works perfectly ( for a brief period of time.)
What's mind boggling, ( if I may) is that IPv4 service was turned off when printer went offline. Logical right? Turned it back and it works for a while and goes offline again. Boggie man stops by that printer to turn-off network connections repeatedly. This is frustrating and makes my department look bad. May be we should try a different brand of printer. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Hi gr---8 ,
Sorry to hear you are still having issues setting up the printer on the wired network.
We will need to find out if it is the Ethernet port on the printer, or the network causing this issue.
Do you have Mac filtering on the router?
Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the printer.
Restore the printer back to factory settings.
Print a hardware test page to test the printer's hardware. Make sure the SSID and IP address is cleared from your router's setttings. Printing a Configuration Page in Windows.
Connect the Ethernet cable directly to the computer.
Print the configuration page again to see if you get a IP address to test the Ethernet port on the printer.
What is the IP address?
Run the add printer wizard to install the printer.
Test the printer.
Were you able to see the printer, add the printer and print?
What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
Please provide in detail the results.
Have a nice day!

Is it possible to connect an HP LaserJet P4015n printer to a computer via the ethernet ports?

My usb port on my Laserjet P4015n no longer works and I am unable to connect this printer to my network router because it's in a different room. Is it possible to connect an HP LaserJet P4015n printer to a computer via the ethernet ports? Of so, how would I go about making this connection? Will I need to install ethernet drivers for this to work?
Thanks,
Greg

Hp f2280 printing only black&white via time capsule

HP f2280 printing only black&white via time capsule
anyone have this problem before?

I have just purchased the latest Time Capsule and have exactly the same problem with my HP F2280 when printing from my iMac. Very odd. So started surfing the web and it appears we are not alone and there is no easy fix. Anyway it appears the scanner will not work via the TC either, never crossed my mind when I purchased it that I would have such problems. Two thumbs down for TC

Is it possible to trace unauthorized users? (via ip address or terminal id)

Hi friends
I was wondering if you can help me out with our Logon Securities predicament: We have set up some generic apps ids that are only known to a handful of users. Regular but unauthorized users are trying to sign-on using these generic ids by guessing the password and end up locking them when they exceed sign-on attempts. Is it possible to trace these unauthorized users? (via ip address or terminal id?) (We are on 11.5.10)
Thanks in advance
Ankur

We look at the time of the failure from the fnd_unsuccessful_logins and then correlate it with the AppsLocalLogin.jsp entries in the apache access logs. The ip address is in the access_log.
If you have a lot of logon failures combined with a lot of logons it may be tough to find the offending users but it might help you. Most of our users connect via SSO so finding our offenders are relatively easy. Very few users logon with AppsLocalLogin in our environment.

Trying to update firmware on my canon printer MG5320 but in doesn't recognize the printer being plugged in via USB cable

I am trying to update firmware on my canon printer MG5320 to be able to use the airprint feature but in doesn't recognize the printer being plugged in via USB cable. I have tried restarting the macbook, turning on and off the printer, repairing permissions, deleting and redownloading the update what else can I do? The prinyrt works fine otherwise...

If there are no drivers for Yosemite you might be in trouble.. HP will tend not to support printers once they are EOL.
Getting it running over wireless rather than USB might be worthwhile.
Can’t connect wirelessly HP Photosmart C4780 to MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.2 Mountain Lion.
Has the printer been working and now failed after update.. what update caused the failure if that is the problem??

Printer won't work via Airport

I bought a Canon MF4550d Printer which works fine via USB, but not at all via airport extreme with my MacBook Pro from 2008. All my other printers work fine via airport extreme. Canon support checked everything they could, installations are correct. They referred me to apple but my support there has run out. Any idea? Many thanks!

That's the problem. You've configured a printer to use the USB port of your computer and moved the printer. So when you print, your computer says to itself, "Time to print to the USB port.....hm can't find it."
What you'll have to do (assuming the printer supports network printing) is to configure the printer now that it is connected to the base station. Go to the Print & Scan control panel of System Preferences and see if you can add the printer now that it is connected to the base station. Then when you print, select that printer. (To avoid confusion you may want to start by deleting the configuration that already exists.)
