Solaris 8: Configuring HP 1300 Laserjet on

Hi there,
I had just add this printer as a �HP� PostScrip
printer to a SUN Blade 1000 Workstation.
The Printer daemon looks ok and It says that
it is printing; the problem, as usual is that
there is no impresion at all.
The Blade workstation has 3 conectors A, B
and Parallel and I tried to plug the printer on
any of them. There is some kind of special
configuration to make the printer do some
real work?
Thanks in advance
C�sar Bravo

I have the same problem with my laser printer 2605dn.  the color is pale, i replaced the cartridges with original hp's but it did not help.  I also lost the capability of double side printing that I had when I originally loaded the printer drivers.  I noticed this all after I checked the internet for software updates for my printer.  Are there any solutions for these problems?
please let me know.

  • How to configure ePrint on LaserJet CP1025nw Color Printer

    Solution found:
    How to Configure HP ePrint on the LaserJet CP1025nw Color Printer
    System:     Windows  (Widows 7)
    Step 1 – Install Printer
    Install the CP1025nw Printer to USB, Wifi or Ethernet.
    (Printer needs to print correctly in order to pass to the next steps).
    Step2 – Check Firmware Version
    Press the “Info-Button” on the CP1025nw LaserJet for five seconds.
    The printer will print two info pages.
    Look at the first Page on the top-left for Firmware Version
    Firmware version must be 20120103 or higher.
    Step 3 – Update Firmware
    Download Firmware Update utility (LJCP1020_FWUpdate_signed.exe) from the following link:
    Utilidad de actualización del firmware de HP LaserJet CP1025nw
    or
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=lj-86491-5&cc=es&dlc=es&lc=es&...=
    Execute the Utility on the computer were the CP1025nw LaserJet is correctly installed.
    Find the CP1025nw Printer on the list. The selection Window might show the printer several times depending on how the printer was installed. Select one option and press the button “Update One”.
    Step 4 – Retrieve the Printer Code for your CP1025nw Printer
    ATTENTION:
    The “Host Name” of the printer is not the “Printer-Code” you need  for ePrint setup.
    To retrieve the Printer-Code you must run the ePrint-Setup-Wizard-Utility.
    To download of the utility, go to the link: http://www.hp.com/go/ePrint .
    Find the “HP LaserJet Pro CP1020 Color Printer Series” option in the Drop-Down-List.
    Click “Windows” to download the wizard (EPrintSetupWizard.exe ).
    Execute the Wizard on the computer where the CP1025nw Printer is correctly installed. After running the wizard press the “Info-Button” on the CP1025nw LaserJet for five seconds. The printer will print three info pages. The third info-page offers the Printer-Code you need for ePrint setup. The code is valid for 24h only. When time elapses you have to reprint the info-pages to get an actualized Printer-Code.
    Step 5 – Get Printer Email for your CP1025nw LaserJet
    In order ePrint on your CP1025nw Printer you need to assign an email address to your Printer. To do this, go to the following link: http://www.hpeprintcenter.com/
    Log in with your HP-ID. If you don’t have one, register for a new account.
    When logged in, click on “Add new Printer”-button. You will be asked to enter the Printer-Code. (On how to get the Printer-Code, see step 4).
    While evaluating the Printer-Code, be patient, the program needs its time.
    When the Printer-Code is accepted, you can assign an email address for your CP102nw5 LaserJet. Done this, your con print your CP1025nw Printer just by sending the documents per email to the email-address of your printer.
    Done.

  • Network Configuration for HP LaserJet 200 color MFP M276nw

    Can the HP LaserJet 200 M276nw can be configured to scan to a network folder without initial set-up from a PC? Without the need of initially connecting the device to a computer first.
    We are running a virtual environtment and the printer will need to scan to a configured network folder and this should be done via the device. Of course folder permisisons will be completed prior. I believe I saw a manual where the Embeded web server had this configuration, but would to make sure prior to committing to the purchase. Thanks in advance.
    This question was solved.

    You are gladly welcome.
    Yes, the printer support the SMB protocol indeed.

  • Solaris 10 Configuration

    I am having trouble configuring my internet connection in Solaris 10. I don't really know where to start. Any help would be appreciated.

    Did the Solaris 10 installer recognize a supported network device?
    If that is the case, the installer should have prompted you for the
    NIC's configuration. And when you boot Solaris from the harddisk,
    the command "ifconfig -a" should list a network interface in addition
    to the loopback interface "lo0". (And in a next step we can try to
    configure the NIC to access external systems)
    Otherwise, if all that is listed by "ifconfig -a" is the loopback interface
    "lo0", then you have to find a 3rd party NIC device driver (or maybe
    modify / extend the standard Solaris PCI device -> device driver
    bindings), to be able to access the NIC. The command
    /usr/X11/bin/scanpci can help to identify the PCI cards available in
    the system. If you know what kind of ethernet pci hardware is
    present in the system, you can start looking for a Solaris x86
    NIC device driver (e.g. here: http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/index.htm ).

  • Solaris Internet Configuration in VMWare and installation

    Hi !
    I'm really passionate about this unix-solaris thing.
    But these nudges are pulling me back from installing it actually in my hard drive.
    And also there is the Internet configuration problem.
    Problem:1
    I have 2 IDE HDD.
    Primary HDD: 80 GB
    VolumeName-Type-Size
    SystemBoot-Primary/Active/NTFS-100 MB
    Extended Partition:
    VISTA-Logical/NTFS-20 GB
    2008-Logical/NTFS-10 GB
    Data-Logical/NTFS-25 GB
    Music-Logical/NTFS-9.42 GB
    Solaris-Logical/BLANK-10GB .....Blank = No FS. Used Acronis DD10 for it.
    Slave HDD: 40 GB
    Extended Partition:
    XP-Logical/NTFS-10GB
    Fedora9-Logical/ext3-10GB
    SWAP-Logical/SWAP-2GB
    OpenSUSE103-Logical/ext3-15.25 GB
    When I came to HDD configuration stage of installation,
    I selected the pre-selected c0d0(bootdisk) ---Primary HDD/80GB.
    But when I proceeded further it showed me:
    Warning � The initial fdisk information found on the disk
    c0d0 was invalid. Defaulting the entire disk to a Solaris partition.
    So I aborted the installation.
    I tried one more time, by changing the Solaris Blank logical drive to a primary partition.
    But it didn't work.
    Now I think Solaris 10 cannot be installed in a logical drive or more broadly speaking(assuming) it cannot be installed in HDD having logical drives,it should be all primary partitions.
    Please help me on this.
    I'm sick of installing it in VMWare.
    Problem: 2
    How am I supposed to configure my network connection.
    I connect to my ISP using WAN Miniport(PPPOE).
    It allots me dynamic IP(v4).
    I read somewhere DNS should f.root-servers.net and in a magazine, a.solaris.net
    I never came across such a thing in even in linux.
    Problem: 3
    If there is not so �feasible� solution to problem 1, VMWare Workstation comes into play.
    And here too, I need help for configuration of network connection.
    These are the values that I got when I installed Windows XP in the VMWare.

  • HP 1300 Laserjet & HP 2605dn Laser Jet printers print density problem

    I have both an HP 1300 b/w and HP 2605dn color laser printer.  In the last week both printers have changed the output density. The 1300 print is coming out lighter than it used to, and the 2605 is not print the color tones as it used to. What used to be orange is now only yellow.Other colors are not right either. I can compare them to output a few weeks earlier, and they are much lighter and different color tones.
    Both printers have plenty of toner in all cartridges. The toner cartridge on the 1300 was changed 2 weeks ago. The toner on the 2605 is 3/4 full.
    This was like something got into the printer drivers and reset some parameters on both printers at once.
    Can anyone help me here to check this out and how to correct the problem?

    I have the same problem with my laser printer 2605dn.  the color is pale, i replaced the cartridges with original hp's but it did not help.  I also lost the capability of double side printing that I had when I originally loaded the printer drivers.  I noticed this all after I checked the internet for software updates for my printer.  Are there any solutions for these problems?

  • Solaris 10 configuration parameters for Oracle 10g

    Hello all,
    I have installed:
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit
    on the latest version of Solaris 10 SPARC. My /etc/project file looks as follows:
    user.oracle:101:Oracle:::process.max-sem-nsems=(privileged,256,deny);project.max-shm-ids=(privileged,256,deny);project.max-shm-memory=(privileged,17179869184,deny)
    I followed the installation guide for 10g and used the max-sem-nsems and max-shm-ids that were recommended. However, the guide was for a 4GB SGA and we are using a 8GB SGA on a machine with 32GB of memory.
    Now, my question is, do those nsem and shm-id parameters hold true for larger SGAs? We are having a problem that, when new oracle shadows are created, any processes that check the /proc table becomes painfully slow.

    As allways kernel parameter could be found in documentation: http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15667/pre_install.htm#sthref258
    Maybe you will be intersted in Werner Pushitz's article "Tuning and Optimizing Red Hat Enterprise Linux for Oracle 9i and 10g Databases" - http://www.puschitz.com/TuningLinuxForOracle.shtml

  • Solaris Network Configuration

    Hi,
    In solaris7 I am able to connect server from local network.
    But from external network, I could not.
    Where should I configure the server to allow connections from external >networks.
    Thankful to you.

    Hi,
    When you say not able to connect, generally it means ping is not working. This could be due to many reasons. Like:
    1. Firewall or router access list setup at your place.
    2. If there is no firewall, server does'nt know how to route packets to external network. In that case you need to define default route in routing table. ( /etc/defaultrouter ).
    If you need to discuss it further, please mention your e-mail address, I would contact you for resolving this problem.
    Thanks

  • Sharing HP LaserJet 200d on Windows 7 to XP machine

    I need help sharing  my LaserJet 220d running on Windows 7 with another computer running XP.
    The HP LaserJet was originally installed on the XP 32 bit machine and it ran fine. I bought a new computer with Windows 7, 64 bit and Windows automatically installed the software for the printer and it works fine on Windows 7.
    I have printer sharing turned on and the XP machine CAN find the HP printer across the network.
    In reading the HP web support on this topic I did try to configure the HP LaserJet for both 64 bit and 32 bit (x86) drivers. However, when I follow through the step outlined on this page -
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c02030517
    I run into a problem in locating the proper driver. I keep getting an error message saying that I do not have the correct file.
    I tried all HP 2200 PCL 5 drivers that I could find on this link, including the universal driver -
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=28862&pr...
    but non of them worked. I kept getting the message that I do not have the correct driver. The exact error message is "The requested location does not contain the driver for the HP LaserJet 2200 Series PCL 5 for the requested processor architecture.
    What driver do I need to install on my windows 7 machine in order to allow the HP 2200d PCL 5 printer to be shared with my 32 bit XP machine and where do I find it?
    Thanks very much,
    Dan

    HP seems pretty damned indifferent to its customers' problems.  I have about the same problem.  My computer has Windows 7 SP1 x64, with a LaserJet 2200D connected via USB.  I have been trying to share it with another computer, which is running Windows XP SP3 x86, on home network.
    I am able to use the printer from my computer, but not from the XP machine.  I've tried to download "additional drivers" for the client machine, but keep getting messages "no driver found" after unzipping.  Also have tried installing drivers on the other computer, again to the same messages there. 
    I've had the printer working on both computers before, but only after hours of fiddling around with different drivers on both machines and then, only by luck it seems, did it work.  Can't seem to get it work this time around.
    I usually reinstall Windows (win7) about once a year, and really do not want to have to go through this problem yet again next year.  I want to fix this problem now.

  • Solaris 10 Dev. Edition - Network config issue (NIC,DHCP,Can't ping router)

    I am a developer getting started with Solaris 10 configuration. I recently installed Solaris 10 and have run into an issue with network connectivity.
    I have done much research on this and I was able to get communiction to the internet established once, but the settings were lost on reboot.
    Overview - The Solaris box is connected to a router which is acting as a DHCP server.
    AMD 64 dual 2.6
    nForce4+ integrated NIC
    1) I am not able to obtain an address from the router. Nor do I get a respons back when I ping it. I get an IP etc if I boot into Windows so phyicial connectivity is fine.
    2) Upon reboot the device nfo0 as shown using ifconfig -a has an IP of 0.0.0.0.
    3) If I run ifconfig [hostname] my machine gets the ip from the hosts file, but I would like to obtain this from the router.
    4) NOTE - the machine shows as active on my router, but the Solaris box cannot be reached from other computers on the networ, nor do I get a reply back when pinging the router from the Solaris box.
    GOAL - reach and obtain a DHCP from the router and have the changes stick upon reboot.
    /etc/hosts contents
    127.0.0.1 localhost loghost
    192.168.1.55 solarisX /*<-- this is what I get when I do ifconfig nfo0 solarisX */
    /etc/hosname.nfo0
    netmask + 255.255.255.0
    solarisX
    /etc/defaultrouter
    192.168.1.254
    /et c/netmasks
    192.168.0.0 255.255.2550
    Specific Steps taken:
    Using the driver nfo-2.4.5 locate at http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/ I did the following.
    % cd /.../nfo-x.x.x
    % rm obj Makefile
    % ln -s Makefile.${KARCH}_${COMPILER} Makefile
    % ln -s ${KARCH} obj
    where ${KARCH} is the result of `isainfo -n`, and ${COMPILER} is
    "gcc" or "suncc" which you want to use to make the driver.
    4. Testing
    Testing before installation is strongly recommended.
    # cd /.../nfo-x.x.x
    # /usr/ccs/bin/make install
    # ./adddrv.sh
    # /usr/ccs/bin/make uninstall (for solaris7, don't remove the file )
    # modload obj/nfo
    # devfsadm -i nfo (for solaris7, use drvconfig and reboot with -r )
    # ifconfig nfoN plumb ( where N is an instance number, typcally 0 for first card)
    # ifconfig -a ( you will see an entry for nfoN)
    # ifconfig nfoN YOUR-HOST-NAME
    # ifconfig nfoN ( ensure IP address is correct)
    # ifconfig nfoN up ( and then you can test with ping, telnet, ftp ...)
    5. Installation
    After you ensure that the nfo driver is fully functional, install it.
    (1) copy the nfo driver into the kernel directory
    # cd /.../nfo-x.x.x
    # /usr/ccs/bin/make install
    If you do not test the nfo driver yet, execute the following commands:
    # ./adddrv.sh
    # devfsadm -i nfo (for solaris7, use drvconfig and reboot with -r)
    (2) Configure the network interface. Create and/or modify the following file:
    /etc/hostname.nfoN
    (3) Reboot the system.
    # init 6

    Thanks Alan. I worked on trying to get the NIC working again last night. I had it working once, although the settings did not perist. I can still get the device to load, but I can't communciate with the router (it's not physical because another OS can reach it.
    I took your advice and tried the sys-unconfig. But I did not have much success.
    I am wondering if plopping in a new PCI NIC would be the most efficient route to get the server up.
    What kind of NIC do you utilize and have had success with?
    I am looking at possibly a DLINK DFE-530 or NetGear FA-311. I don't need wireless at this point just a rock solid DEV box.
    Thanks again for the previous info.

  • HP LaserJet 2605

    There seems to be a few problems with poor color printing qualities.
    Laser colours don't match screen colours on 2605dn
    Options
    07-10-2010 08:31 AM
    I have a LaserJet 2605dn. I recently replaced all 3 colour toner cartridges (with the exception of the black). When I printed a photo from PS CS3 the colours-especially the skin tones were off.
    Before I replaced the cartridges the colour printing was fine.
    What has changed the output of the 2605dn since I replaced the cartridges?

    HP 1300 Laserjet & HP 2605dn Laser Jet printers print density problem
    Options
    03-02-2009 12:49 PM
    I have both an HP 1300 b/w and HP 2605dn color laser printer.  In the last week both printers have changed the output density. The 1300 print is coming out lighter than it used to, and the 2605 is not print the color tones as it used to. What used to be orange is now only yellow.Other colors are not right either. I can compare them to output a few weeks earlier, and they are much lighter and different color tones.
    Both printers have plenty of toner in all cartridges. The toner cartridge on the 1300 was changed 2 weeks ago. The toner on the 2605 is 3/4 full.
    This was like something got into the printer drivers and reset some parameters on both printers at once.
    Can anyone help me here to check this out and how to correct the problem?
    poor quality prints

    Hi
    I ned help. Color Laserjet 2605 dn. When I print a test sheet colors look normal but every time I print a file from any DTP prog. the colors are very washed out.
    I seem to have no software control of how the printer prints, so how can I get good solid colors to print accurately.
    I set up using correct ink and paper etc.
    Hope you can help
    Thanks
    Can we get an expert to address these multiple problems-please?

    I am having the same problem with the Magenta cartridge... Have you found a fix for this?
