Problem Printing to a Networked Windows 7 Printer Since Upgrading to 10.6.2

I have my macbook pro networked to a PC (running windows 7) and have had no problems sharing files and printing from the Mac to the PC connected printer (Epson CX 8400) until I updated Snow Leopard to 10.6.2. I can still connect to the network and share files, but a can no longer print. When I print from the Mac, the job stalls. The printer utility gives the following message "on hold (authentication required)". I do not have a password set up on the PC or the printer. I have no problem printing from a XP laptop connected to the network. I have updated the printer driver ,deleted and re-installed the printer. If I connect the printer directly to the Mac, it prints OK. Any suggestions?

An updated driver was posted to the Apple Software Update on 12/15. Run the Software Update and it should automatically update your driver.
Hope this helps,
Syd

  • Hp photosmart 7525 not printing since upgrade to windows 10

    Unable to print since upgrading to Windows 10.I've deleted the printer and reinstalled the driver to no avail.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums, and thanks for posting! :cathappy: I'd like to help you get your HP Photosmart 7525 e-All-in-One printer up and running on your new Windows 10 operating system. You've mentioned that you already tried installing the drivers from the HP website. If the Windows 10 driver that you have downloaded does not work, I'd recommend trying the Windows 8.1 driver (the operating systems have the same core functionality, so the Windows 8.1 driver works fine on Windows 10). You can also try uninstalling the software you do have, and re-installing using the HP Printer Install Wizard. The Printer Install Wizard, can fix many software issues automatically. Hope this helps!

  • Can no longer print since upgrading modem.

    can no longer print since upgrading modem.  none of our apple devices see the HP printer anymore.  they used to.  says no airprint printers found.  any thoughts on how to fix?

    If you upgraded the modem......but you have not reset the printer back to its original default settings and then set it up again......now would be a good time to do this.
    The printer still has the programmed settings to connect to your old modem, and it cannot find it, because it is no longer there. The printer is lost, and does not know how to find its way. It needs to be set up again with new settings to match your new modem.

    If a reset doesn't help, visit the website for your printer manufacture then search for v10.10 Yosemite drivers to download and install.

  • Can no longer print to a Samsung CLP-310 laser printer since upgrade to LR 4.3

    Sometimes I need to print a draft photo to the Samsung for various reasons. I have had this printer for 4 years and never had a problem printing from LR until now. The printer will go on, go through its cycles and then shut completely off and then come back on and eject a blank sheet. I can print from any other program including photos from Aperture without any issues. Only since LR-4 had I had this issue.
    I tried many settings such as smaller scale pictures, draft mode, etc., to ensure I was not exceeding the Samsung printer's parameters. Again, this printer worked since Lightroom Beta. LR-4 prints great photos to my Epson inkjet printer w/o any problems. Any ideas what changed? Thanks! Andy

    I should probably rephrase my question:
    Has anyone had a printer of any kind that worked fine until the latest LR version and were you able to fix it without resorting to printer specific methods (drivers, etc.)? If yes, what adjustment did you make to correct this? If there is one, it might be universal.... thanks!
    My computer is an iMac... thanks!

  • Microsoft Office 2008 crashes when printing since upgrading to Yosemite

    Ever since upgrading my Macbook Pro (late 2009) to OS X Yosemite I'm having trouble with Microsoft Office 2008. Whenever I try to print from any of the Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint), the program will crash and the file will not print. I am still able to print from other programs (Safari, Preview, etc...). And aside from this I'm having no other issues with the Office programs. So at the moment I'm reducing to having to save files as a PDF and then printing from Preview. Can anyone help me troubleshoot?

    I'm not sure if the printer driver is updated, it usually does that automatically...
    That sounds magical but I have never had printer drivers automatically update themselves. After your upgrade to Yosemite, did you setup your printer using Print & Scan in System Preferences?
    ...office programs are the only ones crashing when I try to print, so wouldnt that indicate an Office issue rather than a printer driver issue?
    No, not necessarily. See thread "microsoft office crashes when trying to print."
    If you believe the your problem is an "Office issue" then you might try the Microsoft forum.

  • Hp officejet 6110 not printing since upgrading to windows vista

    I have recently upgraded my hp laptop from windows xp to vista and am now unable to print to my approx 4 yr old hp printer (officejet 6110). I get a message on my computer saying USB device not detected. I have tried all the solutions suggested by hp on their website under "print jobs are stuck in the print queue and will not print with a USB connected printer in windows vista" but problem unresolved. Can anyone help?

    No.Currently using it as a fax and photocopier only. If you find a solution please let me know.Thanks.

  • Re: Any problems printing since 10.6.8?

    Hi, Since I've updated, everytime I go to print on any of the printers I'm connected to at work, which up to a couple of days ago and the update I keep getting that printer is paused, but won't resume no matter what.  Any thoughts? 
    Printers are Toshiba printers at work, couple different models, none of which now will print for me.  I'm using a MBP Late 2008, 8GB ram. (have repaired permissions). 
    Thoughts and thanks in advance for any ideas you may have.

    A number of users have experienced the same problem as you after the 10.6.8 update. Have a read of this thread. For many the solution has been to replace the 10.6.8 cups backend services with the versions present in 10.6.7. So if you have been using Time Machine you can follow the same procedure of restoring some of the files located in /usr/libexec/cups/backend. Depending on what protocol the Mac is using to connect to the Toshiba you can just replace this backend. To determine what backend is being used, open Print & Fax and select the Toshiba queue. Then click on Options & Supplies and look at the General tab. You will see the print queue URL and this will show what protocol is being used, such as lpd, socket or dnssd. Once you know this you can then just restore the old backend service and replace the new version.

  • Problem Printing after upgrading to Yosemite

    I was using Mavericks with no problem, I decided to upgrade to Yosemite without checking for compatibility with my Kodak 6150 All-In-one printer Now I can't print from anything using safari.  Is there any way to go back to mavericks?

    Hi, KenMotoh.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would first recommend making sure the printer driver has been updated.  If the issue persists, try all the steps in the article below.

  • Printer is offline when I try to printer since upgrade to Windows 10

    I upgraded to windows 10 and now when I try to print it says printer is offline.  Does my printer work with win 10. Also mine is wireless printer.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see that your printer is offline since you upgraded to Windows 10. I will certainly do my best to help you. The Full Feature Software and Driver is available for your printer for Windows 10. I believe we need to update the driver to get it to work. Please download and run the Print and Scan Doctor, it will likely diagnose and resolve the issue you are experiencing. What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)If the Print and Scan Doctor tells you to install the HP Software for your printer. Please go here, and use the Printer Install Wizard to get the latest HP Software for your printer.  Alternatively, you can download and install the latest HP Software here. Please respond to this post with the result of your troubleshooting. I look forward to hearing from you. Good Luck!
      

  • Problem printing since Yosemite update.

    We run iMacs on 10.10.2.
    We run an HP 55100 Photosmart printer wirelessly from a BT Home Hub 3.
    The iMacs run on an ethernet via a router.
    This has been working fine for a long time but since the most recent Yosemite update we can't print until we reboot the home hub each time we turn the computers on. I've spent hours on the 'phone to BT Broadband experts but they don't know what is wrong.
    I don't know where to start. Computers? Hub? Printer? Anyone any ideas???

    What's the real model of the printer - Photosmart C5500 or 5510 Series or 5510d Series or what?
    Try Resetting the Printing System, then Add the printer again. (This forces use of latest driver, among other things)

  • Cannot print since upgrading to Maverick

    I have just upgraded to Maverick and my printer stopped printing. I have a HP 8600 Pro Office Jet. The printer is running low on ink but will print from Windows and also from the mac when printing a test page. When I try and print an email for example it goes to the print queue but will not actually print. There is a warning the ink is low (but not an error). Could it be the ink level even though a test page works fine or are there other likely problems.
    Thanks

    I have an HP Laserjet 3055 All-in-One Printer and am experiencing the same problem. It has been printing just fine from my iMac running OS 10.9.5 (Mavericks) until after the HP Printer Software Update, Version 3.0, that I installed on 1 Oct 2014. Although the 3055 is shown as connected/idle to my iMac via USB, after clicking "PRINT" for a document, the print queue status soon changes from "printing" to "waiting for printer to become available", and the printer never becomes available. I have tried rebooting everything (printer, computer, Word software), checking USB cable connections and changing USB ports, deleting and re-adding the 3055 printer (numerous times!) even after resetting the print system, but could there be something inherently wrong with the latest HP driver (version 19.9 for HP Laserjet 3052)? Or is it possible something else is going on?  In other words, I have exhausted all the solutions I've found in these and other forums to no avail.
    I have tested this printer by connecting it to my MacBook Pro also running OX 10.9.5 but without the HP Printer Software Update, Version 3.0. (Hadn't gotten around to this update...) The printer works fine, even though the driver has the same version number--19.9. So could the version 19.9 driver in the latest HP Printer Software Update be corrupted? Is there any way to reinstall that driver? Or copy the 19.9 driver from my MacBook Pro and install it on the iMac? HP only refers to the Apple Software Update process for Mavericks compatible drivers for this printer. Can I manually uninstall the HP driver for the Laserjet 3055 from my iMac and then have the iMac download the driver again in the process of re-setting up the 3055? Any suggestions appreciated.

  • I have an mcc issue with my canon printer since upgrading to OS Maverick

    is there a software update for this?

    My Canon iSensys MF4660PL wouldn't talk to my MBP after Mavericks installed, just after it was released; Canon were no help, basically saying it was an old printer.....So I reverted back to Mountain Lion and all was OK.
    Whilst footling around round the Canon support website yesterday (the UK one) I noticed that the printer driver now included OSx 10.9. So I downloaded and installed this: printer still working (the printer is networked to the router and thence wifi to household devices)   Then downloaded and installed Mavericks and....printer wasn't working. Reinstalled the latest Canon printer driver, still not working. I sulked and went for lunch.
    Now I am not sure why I did this, but I deleted the printer from the Printer Scanner Control panel and then added it back in. Tried a test print and it whirred into life.....printing rubbish! Progress! I then removed it and added it again, this time choosing the correct printer from the drop down list in the "Use" box as opposed to the wrong one...durr...and....success!!
    SO dwb's advice seems the way to go.
