Samsung CLP300 prints via old G4 Power(10.4) but not with MacBook (10.5.5)

I bought an Airport Express so I wouldn't have to keep my old power-hogging G4 running as a print server. If I try and print wirelessly to my Samsung CLP300 printer with the G4, it works fine. But when I try and print via my MacBook (10.5.5), the print queue just stalls at a certain percentage. The only solution I've found is to unplug the Airport Express and then plug it in again, but schlepping up to my 3rd floor and waiting 5 mins for the Airport Express to start up can be a real PITA.
Any solutions?

I'm also having issues with Airport Express 802.11b/g, firmware 6.3 that used to worked fine with my Brother MFC-2040 in 10.4 but now struggles in 10.5 with my new Samsung SCX-4300. Like you, it will print one job fine, then it stalls on the next. Printer dialog shows "Printing page 1, 14% complete..." Then it gives up and the dialog shows "Printer Paused". When I resume the printer and resume the job, an error message pops up, "Operation Could not be completed. client-error-not-possible". But when I click OK, the dialog returns that shows "Printing page 1, 14% complete"
I reinstalled the latest printer driver (1.2), deleted the old printer profiles and created new ones for the printer, and followed the directions on the Airport printing troubleshooting guide. I had no problems printing on a Brother MFC-2040 with OS X 10.4. I suspect this is a Leopard issue. Any thoughts?

How can I send emails to a list of email addresses using mail merge feature in Microsoft Word for Mac? It would work with the power pc but not with macbook Air

I want to send an email and personalize it to several contacts. I could always do it with my old Power PC using Microsoft Office Word for Mac but cannot access my emailoption when I use the Macbook Air. Anyone have a solution??

No way for us to know for sure (without similar product/issues) but the
HP Support site suggests that with the current Mavericks OS X 10.9.x
their drivers should be available through Apple Software Updates:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mac-Printing-and-Scanning/HP-Product-Support-using- Apple-Software-Updates-for-new-OS-X/td-p/3086229
However that may be limited to certain models of printers or scanners that
already had been known to be working under OS X as of that date in a
prior OS X (such as 10.8.5, 10.7.5, 10.6.8, etc) with earlier product support.

{According to this page, your old printer has only Windows & Linux drivers

You may be able to get a deal on a new printer as they are rapidly obsoleted.
PS: edit to add... there was a Gutenprint driver reference for T65 Printer here:
Mac OS X 10.5: Included printer drivers
Yet a driver for ancient Leopard 10.5.x may not be suitable for Mavericks 10.9.x
but the Gutenprint lead may be helpful to locate whatever may exist; or not.

Hi ryanfromstockbridge,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing when you try to add the printer or print to the printer. If you continue to have issues printing to this wireless printer, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

HP Photoprinter C7280 printer. The wireless radio is on but not functioning - so no wifi conection.

HP Photoprinter C7280 printer. The wireless radio is on but not functioning - so am unable to gain wifi connection and print! - Why? How do I fix, Thanks

I would guess that the printer's wireless radio has died. Have you tried plugging the printer into your wireless router with an Ethernet cable? It should work and give you the same functions as wireless. Your computer or router will not care how the printer is connected.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

My computer recognizes my old iPhone, iPad and iPod but NOT my new iPhone. What the heck???

My computer recognizes my old iPhone, iPad and iPod but NOT my new iPhone what the heck? It was fine last week, now nothing

When you plug in your phone go to the sidebar on the left, select the device, and select the menu you want to sync.
For example at the top there is summary, info, apps, movies, etc.
If you wanted to sync movies go under there and pick and chose the movies you want on the device.
Let's assume you are doing that and syncing is not going properly. Then first double check that there is a checkmark in the top left of that page that says sync movies
If there is uncheck and then hit apply. Then it will take all the movies off. Now re-check everything and hit apply.

HT3669 Hi I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer. This works with my Windows-based Toshiba laptop but not with my i-Mac. Can someone please advise me how I get the printer to work with my i-Mac? I have installed it but documents don't print. Thanks

Hi I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer. This works with my Windows-based Toshiba laptop but not with my i-Mac. I have the latest (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) OS-X software.
I have installed the printer using 'System Preferences' on my i-Mac and it appears on the list of available printers but documents that I create just don't print.
Can someone please advise me how I get the Konica Minolta PagePro 1300W printer to work with my i-Mac?
Thanks, John Lee

Looking at the Konica web site for the PagePro 1300W, I saw the following note.
Please note: This printer is designed to be used in computer operating systems running MS Windows only. Operating systems such as UNIX, Macintosh, or Linux are not supported nor do we have workaround drivers available. Older MS Windows versions, such as Windows 3.1/95/98[pre-SE] and NT 3.51/4.0, are not supported.
So KM are not going to help you. But the LinuxFoundation does provide a workaround that should allow you to print. Have a look at this web page. You will need to install all three packages as per the instructions from that page.

I can't send emails via mail. I can receive but not send. I have set up gmail on mail. Any ideas? No problems with the set up previously to this.

Go to Mail Preferences- Accounts and confirm you are providing Gmail what they require to send and receive mail. And DON'T specify Secure Socket Layer. Some mail accts don't like SSL
Good Luck to you.

"printer is offline" appears on one computer but not the other (both windows 7)

This is pretty common to see when your firewall kicks in and blocks certain communication paths the printer takes.
Here's a list of ports and programs that when allowed through the firewall, will restore communiction.
Ports to open:
UDP ports: 427, 161, 139
TCP ports: 9200, 9220, 9290, 9500
Programs to allow:
hpiscnapp.exe
hpoews01.exe
hpofxm08.exe
hposfx08.exe
hposid01.exe
hpqkygrp.exe
hpqste08.exe
hpqtra08.exe
hpznui01.exe
hpzwiz01.exe
SLP_Service (also known as UDP 427)
Have your security software provider walk you through allowing these items through your firewall.
If this does not fix your issue, it is most likely an issue with the driver configuration. Your router may have assisgned the printer a new IP address and this can be changed in the properties of the existing driver.

Are you properly selecting the content to sync in iTunes? I mean you have all of the headings - Sync Music, Sync Movies, etc. checked to sync and all of the content as well?
Is the iPad signed into the same iTunes account as your PC? You are using the same Apple ID and iTunes account on both devices. On the iPad go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - is that the same ID that your iTunes library is using?
Lastly, did you ever transfer the purchases from your iPad to the PC? Is all of the content that you have on the iPad in your iTunes library?
I can't think of any other reasons why the iTunes on the PC as seeing this as a new iPad.

Printing from web pages is excruciatingly slow with most recent upgrades of Firefox .Use an iMac and an HP officejet printer. Printer works fine with Safari and woodprocessed files, but not with Firefox and web pages.

Printing from web pages is excruciatingly slow since downloading most recent upgrades of Firefox Mozilla. I have a desktop iMac, OS 10.6.8, and an HP officejet printer 4500 G510n. The printer works fine with the Safari Browser and with woodprocessed files, but not with Firefox and web pages. Help please! It used to print fast with earlier versions of Firefox.

Hello and welcome to the Apple Discussions Forum.
I have hardly any experience with HP printers but since your posting has not been replied to yet I thought I'd offer some assistance.
With the printer status and ink levels working, it shows that you have a connection to the printer. So I would look at the issue being with the protocol being used for the print queue on the Mac.
Since you have XP and Vista working, I would check the printer queue configuration on either box. In XP, go to the Properties and select Ports. Click the Configure Port tab to view the connection. If you are using RAW, then this is known as HP Jetdirect-Socket on OS X. So if you are not sure what protocol was used before I would create another printer queue, this time selecting IP > HP Jetdirect-Socket. Then enter your IP address and select the K5400dn from the Print Using menu.
If this still fails to print then please reply. There may be limitations with adding the HP driver this way that I am not aware of. There may also be other driver options you can look at, such as HPIJS. If Greg Sahli reads this posting he has expert knowledge on this matter and will be able to offer some guidance.

Can't print now with Leopard w/iMac but can with MacBook&PowerBook

This is my 3rd upgrade (iMac) to Leopard. First two were on MacBook & PowerBook and printing on Epson C88 via AEBS works both remote and via USB.. Now iMac does not print to C88 attached to AEBS nor to Epson CX4200 attached by USB to iMac. Tried downloading new drivers from Epson. Even down loaded Gutenprint 5.2.0-beta2 forEpson Inkjet Printers. But not successful in getting printing from iMac. For C88 keep getting "Printer is currently off-line" and no printing. For CX4200 sometimes get printing and sometimes get blank page. Tried to delete printers in Preferences-Print&Fax. After hi lighting each printer got drop down asking if I wanted to delete printer but when OK clicked on printer does not get delete but stays listed in Printers panel. Any suggestions of how to solve this problem. would be welcome.

No problem!
I would recommend repairing the disk permissions on your computer by following this Apple document here. Once this is complete, make sure your Apple updates are complete by following this Apple document here.
Now, I would reset the printing system on your computer. Please follow this Apple document here. If your USB connection isn't responding correctly, then follow this Apple document on USB: Troubleshooting Error Messages. I will be looking forward to hearing from you again!

E-print works on some e-mail address, but not others?

HP Officejet Pro8600
Windows 7 Ultimate
error: "550 5.7.1 Command rejected"
I am able to send and print e-mail print jobs from @hotmail.com and @live.com addresses, but not from @q.com (a Century Link primary domain for customers, not a corporate account). I have set up "Anyone can send ePrint jobs to this printer." These failed print jobs never appear in the ePrint Center listing of Recent Print Jobs. I have tried sending via Outlook 2010 and via the Century Link web based e-mail application -- they both return to me as bounced messages. What's going on here?
This question was solved.

There are certain email clients that are supported for ePrint. I included a screenshot of supported clients. Also, I am adding a link for helpful information about ePrint.

HP LJ4mv wireless printer worked with OS 10.5.5 but not with 10.6.3 - help!

My ancient HP worked with 10.4.11 and 10.5.1 thru 10.5.5 wirelessly. With 10.5.6 thru 10.5.8 installed, the printer did ot work and only the Adobe printer appeared in the Printer/Fax setup. With 10.5.5, I was experiencing random horizontal gray lines, polygons with gradient colors (cyan and magenta) flashing on and off and smeared dialog boxes and drop down menues. So, I upgraded to 10.5.8 and lost the artifacts and my wireless printer. All drivers are current (Software Update delivered/installed updated drivers today.)
10.6.3 is now installed and I still do not have a wireless printer. The Adobe PDF printer pops up and in the Printer/Fax dialog, it indicates "Kind" as HP LaserJet 4V/4MV Postscript. The Default button is active but all other buttons are grayed out and my printer does not appear.
Summary: the printer works, the wireless router works and the drivers are current.
Q. How can I get my wireless printer back? I need it badly.
Thanks.
Leonard

Kappy, thx.
The driver that is appearing now with the Adobe printer worked fantastically with 10.5.5, HP LaserJet 4V/4MV Postscript. This is from Apple, I believe. My printer does not show up when + is selected in the Print & Fax dialog and the Printer Name/Kind list appears. Only the Adobe is there.
I d'l'd/instld the Gutenprint. I cannot select it until the printer appears in the Printer Name/Kind field.
What is SL? :S
Greg, thx.
The printer is cat 5 to the ISP's wireless router and I am wireless. This has always worked up to 10.5.5. I incrementally d'l'd os upgrades 10.5.6, 10.5.7 and 10.5.8 and found the printer would not appear when I tried to add it. With Leopard, up to 10.5.5, my printer appeared automatically and I just had to make a selection from the "Print Using:" drop down.
Bruce, thx.
AppleTalk was a part of the setup and in 10.6, I cannot find AppleTalk. So you may be right about the IP route. Would Apple change this in the middle of Leopard with 10.5.6 (it worked up to 10.5.5) and not with 10.5.0 or 10.6.0? Would there not be an announcement that AppleTalk printer support was ending? No one in these forums knows that AppleTalk printer support was ended (I first posted in the Leopard forums)?
Sorry for the skepticism. I just did not think this was a possiblity but maybe you are right.
Is there a way to get an Apple reading on this? Should I set up a print server for wireless access? Any other suggestions?
Thanks again all. I much appreciate your help.
Leonard
