Spooler problem with Laserjet 1018

When trying to print a PDF document sent to me by an insurance complany my printer froze. I wanted to install a new driver but I cannot uninstall the old driver -- I get a message saying it encountered an abnormal program execution and setup will shut down. I used the Printer and Scan Doctor and a test page was printed, but when I used their 'Uninstall' I was again informed that Windows cannot add a printer as the local spooler is not running. I am running on a Vista, 64 bit platform. ???Help!

Hello,
I see that you're having an issue uninstalling/reinstalling the software.
You will need to restart the print spooler in the device manager. You can follow this document which will show you how to do so.

Can no longer print with Laserjet 1018 under Yosemite (10.10.1)

Hello all,
I used to be able to use the HP Laserjet 1020 driver from Apple's HP Print Drivers 3.0 kit to print documents on my Laserjet 1018. It worked like a charm. Now that I have done a clean install of Yosemite, updated to 10.10.1, and installed the HP Print Drivers 3.0 package, the documents get sent to the print queue but no documents are printed...
What are my options, short of buying a new printer or downgrading to Mavericks?
I really resent regressions.... especially those you only find out about after the fact.

I just realized I had been trying to use the HP LS 1200 driver for my 1018, while I should have been using the 1022 driver, which is the one that works with the 1018 (since there is no specific driver for 1018).
So now that I have already upgraded to 10.10.1, I'm not sure if the update fixed anything for me or if I was just using the wrong driver from the start.
Anyway, the HP LaserJet 1022 driver works on the 1018 on Yosemite 10.10.1. Confirmed.

Problem with LaserJet CM1312nfi MFP : restart infinite loop

LaserJet CM1312 MFP seems to be stacked in an infinite reboot loop. While was sending a fax it rise the error of full memory and start the power cycling but never get to properly restart. After disconnected from the power source and be like that several days it start up properly and printing right. When we intended to use the fax function the same thing happened. Since then it never starts up.
First appear the blue screen with the HP logo and the progress bar, the motor inside is in function. The screen changes to the “black” screen and the ready & exclamation sign leds are blinking. At this point I can access the printers menu, but after several second restarts again. When I don’t touch the printer, after the black screen the leds remain in on and the display becomes white. Blink once and again starts the reboot.
Connected directy to PC (WinXP pro) through USB cable
Any suggestions ?

Wireless Connection Problem with Laserjet Pro MFP M126nw (HELP) :(

I have Laserjet Pro MFP M126nw just bought it last day.
Everthing working fine but i can't able to connect it to my wireless router via WPS PushButton or PIN tried both many times but failed.
I also reset my Router even changed the security level to
·  WEP key encryption using either Auto or Open authentication
·  WPA and
·  WPA2
Tried many times but it says connection failed on the LCD Display.
I have Linksys WRT120N wireless router.
Please help its urgent!

Hi @AjayKareer,
I understand that you are unable to setup the printer on the wireless network. I can help you with this.
Make sure the network name doesn't have any spaces or special characters. The printer won't recognize it.
Restore the printer defaults.
On the printer control panel, press the Setup button.
Press the Right Arrow, to select the Network Setup, and then press OK.
Press the Right Arrow, to select the Restore Defaults, and then press OK.
I have provided a document with some steps for setting the printer up on the network.
Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or Wired (Ethernet) Network.
Configure the wireless by a Ethernet connection if the issue persists.
Print a configuration page to get the printer's IP address.
Printing a Configuration Report.
Then type the IP address into Internet Explorer's address bar to bring up the printer's web page.
Select the networking tab, wireless on the left hand side.
Fill out all your network information, select infrastructure, select your network name, put in the password and type of Encryption if you have this setup or Open for no password. Apply settings.
Then disconnect the Ethernet cable.
Then wait a minute to see if you get a wireless light on the printer, print the configuration page and check the IP address again. Then type the IP address into Internet Explorer's address bar to bring up the printer's web page. That way you will know that the printer is now networked.
Then run the installation.

ALV Grid Report spool problem with column with no data

Hello All,
I have created a simple alv grid report the report has a description field of 40 ch for which I have made the display length as 20 ch . This works fine in the foreground but when I run the report in background when there is no data in this column this being overwritten with the next column. Which is causing a mismatch between the header and the data below it.
Also when I try to download the report in foreground into excel the columns are not matching with the headers this again happens for columns when there is no data.
Kindly please suggest what is going wrong.
Thanks,
ranjan

Hi,
For checking the output from background job, check the job and enter JDBG in the command bar and execute.
Check the field catalog and the table contents in debugging just before display.

Printer spool issue with HP LaserJet 1018

I seem to be having a recurring problem with the HP LaserJet 1018 that I am hoping someone has also had and can help me resolve. When I go to print I get a message that I need to set up a printer (it does not recognize the printer is there). When I click on set up a new printer, I receive a message that the local print spooler service is not running. Nothing I do seems to solve the problem.
This happened to me with my previous 1018 printer. The exact same thing. I had a second 1018 available to me that I connected and it worked just fine for about two months and now is doing the same thing as the first.
I have an HP Pavilion Entertainment PC with Windows 7 (64 bit) operating system. I previously had a Dell with Windows XP that the first printer worked on for a long time (maybe 2+ years). I got this new computer within the past six months and both these printers stopped working while on this computer.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Welcome to the HP Forums fastndfury,
I see by your post that you are only getting the error on the Windows 8 computer, "The scanner is currently in use. Please wait until your previous task is completed and then try scanning again." I can help you with this issue.
I have provided a document to go through the steps to see if it will help resolve this issue.
'Another program has control of the scanner' Message Displays on the Computer When Scanning.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Hp laserjet 1018 with windows 7-32 driver problems

We've used this printer with our new computers for 2 yrs now. The last 4 months, we've had issues with it not printing all of the time, but. Could turn it off and back on and it would work. Now it's not printing at all. I have downloaded driver and utility, it works to print 2 things and then quits again. If I reinstall the driver again, same thing, prints 2, then quits. I have replaced the cable, tried everything. This is my main printer at my front desk (billing, patient receipts, etc), I need thirinter up and running ASAP! Having to reinstall the driver every 15 minutes is not going to work for me!

Hi,
Please delete the LaserJet 1018 printer driver from device & printers. Then click on 'print server properties' -> driver tab and delete 1018 driver (if listed).
then from server properties, go to 'port' tab-> delete printer IP port (in case of network printer)
download basic host based driver from following URL:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-58503-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
and complete the driver installation.

Problem with installing HP LaserJet 1102 printer driver

Hi there,
I have got realy annoying problem with printer driver installation on HP LaserJet 1102.
Basically I downloaded driver from the website and tried to install printer. When the installation is almost done, the message pops up(image attached).
I've checked printer spooler service, tried almost everything.
Any suggestions/ideas?
Thanks
Minhoquinho

I would suggest going into your control panel and uninstalling everything associated with the p1102, rebooting your computer and trying a fresh install.
If this does not solve the install issue, please repost and error message along with your OS so that we may better help you.

Problems installing HP LaserJet 1018 printer on new MacBook Pro

Hi all,
I just entered the wonderful world of Mac and I am really enjoying it. Too bad I waited so long. However, I have a problem installing my printer, an HP LaserJet 1018 printer, on my new MacBook Pro intel based computer. I checked at HP's website and it says that the printer is not supported for the Mac environment. Could there be other possibilities with drivers to download or should I buy a new printer?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Christian
MacBook Pro 15", Intel based Mac OS X (10.4)

Hi Crelle,
When the manufacturer says they don't support something, it's generally best to stay away from it.
There's almost always 3 ways to do any 1 thing, but you may need you printer to do more than 1 thing and therefore you're going to have issues with all the other things.
Printing to a printer sounds like 1 thing, but it's not.
It's many things working together to get ink on paper.
My advise is get a supported printer and live without a headache.

HP Laserjet 1018 working in MacOS with 1022 drivers

Hello,
I was experiencing problem of using HP Laserjet 1018 in MacOS. I read some of the articles at http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/INSTALL.osx which you to send a firmware file each time to the printer. However, I also found that there is an update by apple called "HP Printer Drivers v.2.8 OS X" at http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907 but there is no HP 1018 in the list of compatible printers. Anyways, I installed the update and added the new printer and in the software pane, I selected HP laserjet 1022 drivers.
Now, the printer is working fine with my OS flawlessly.
Hope it help others having the same problem.

I just discovered this as well. In case anyone is searching for HP1018
Download the newer HP drivers 2.11 for SL/Lion/ML at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
Add the 1018 in the Printer Setup and then select the HP LaserJet 1022 1.3.0.261 driver.
It's working for me in 10.7.5, prints beautifully.
Hope this helps.

Laserjet 1018 paper feed problem - started suddenly and now wrinkles paper but does not feed it in

This HP Laserjet 1018 is 4 years old, has worked flawlessly. But a day or two ago it fed a sheet of paper, there was a ripping sound, and the paper emerged, printed, but with a 1/4" wide, 5" long missing bit near the bottom, running the long way of the paper. I found and removed the crinkled up torn strip of paper, and have restarted this printer numerous times. Since that incident, it refuses to feed paper correctly, but bunches it up and wrinkles it a bit from the left to right and does not feed it in. Thus, won't work. I can't see any broken parts or anything stuck inside -- and taking this printer apart is v. complicated -- no easy panel to remove to see the feed mechanism. I'm doubtful I can take it apart enough, and still get it back together. I've cleaned the feed roller (small half-round gray rubber thing) and it does not seem to be the problem.
Questions:
a) anyone experienced, and solved this problem?
b) is it worth trying to send this for repair (I got it on special for $69, and the replacement equivalent now appears to be the HP P1102w, which is selling via Amazon for $94.99
Thanks

Hi. Thank you for your post.
