Start to print and then it prints really slow or stops all together. Desktop computer "Compac"

My printer is an HP DESKJET3050A ALL-IN-ONE J611 SERIES.  Operating system installed is Windows XP  No i have not made any changes

It sounds like the printer is not getting enough power or there may be a faulty ink cartridge.
To confirm if it is isolated to the printer or somewhere else, try copying a page to see if it is printing slow from a copy.
Is the printer connected to a surge protector?  If so, try connecting the printer directly to a wall outlet.  Did this help?
The next step is to look at the ink cartridges.  An easy test to see if the cartridges may be at fault is to try printing a text only document with the black ink cartridge removed.  
Did it still print slow? It will still be slow since it will be mixing the colors to make black, but it should be faster than it was before if a faulty cartridge was at fault.
If it still print really slow with the black cartridge removed, try putting the black back in and removing the color cartridge.  Did it still print slow?
Let me know what happens.

    Sorry for late reply i was not at work
    I have a default set excel is still throwing error. Interestingly winword , powerpoint and publisher are working fine. I am able to print from all office applications except Excel.
     Probably excel behaves differently from other office applications.
     Probably it is a bug in excel
    Workaround : Log on to a system once using newly created account then runas excel using this account then print works fine.
    It means something in user profile should be configure to run excel print operation. Could you please somebody help what I need to configure in user profile that makes print operation success?

  • I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto.  You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone.  How do you turn your document into a jpeg now.

    If you chose print, you can save as PDF. If you open the saved PDF in preview, you can save as JPEG, GIF, PNG. FYI you can crop in preview.
    Another option is you could use command + shift + 4 to do a screen shot of a specific part of of the screen.

    Acrobat on OSX does not use printer preset. Every single time I have to print I have to click printer and then print to load the preset and then click print again from the main dialog. I am printing to a Xerox that has the copier code in the preset so if I don't do this it will not print. This has been broken for in every version I have tried. This extra clicks are taking years off my life. Did I remember to do the extra clicks? I don't know, I guess I will run down the hall and check. Please fix this.

    What operating system are you running? I assume they had you install the latest BIOS. True? If it were mine, I would suggest forcing it to use integrated graphics (in the BIOS) to rule out a problem with the NVidia driver.

    Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode?

  • HP C310 printer and Google Cloud Print Problems

    I am using a Chromebook with a C310 printer and Google Cloud Print. The print dialogue does not allow for multiple copies. Additinally, the print dialogue box does provide for specifying which pages in a given  document to print, but ignores it, always printed all the pages of a documebnt.  Can HP address this problem or is it a Google Cloud Print problem?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Unfortunately, is you are using the Chromebook and the dialog box does not allow for multiple prints, then it is likely a feature that has not been put into the Chromebook yet. I would suggest contacting them for support, as the printing software for our printer can only digest the commands it is given - if the command isn't there for multiple copies then the printer will not have any other choice but to print them one at a time.
    I hope this helps!

  • I don't have a wireless printer, and want to print things off of my iPad.  I know that I can use the iPad Camera Connection kit to connect USB devices like keyboards and I am wondering if I could do the same with a USB printer.

    I don't think you can connect a printer since you won't have the printer drivers. I use FingerPrint from collobos.com to print to my non-AirPrint printers.

  • My LabVIEW exe starts to run and then stops in Windows 7

    I have built an executable in LabVIEW 2010 on a Windows XP machine and set the properties to be built for Windows 7 or later but when I try to run the exe on the Windows 7 machine the application starts up briefly and then stops running with no error message. Has anyone seen this? I have disabled the firewall on the Windows 7 machine.

    Hi Wassa,
    It's very strange that your application window opens and then slowly fades away while "LabVIEW shuts down." Can you first verify that the VI itself runs properly on the development machine? Can you then build a .EXE and ensure that it too runs properly on the development machine? If we can get the .EXE working on the development machine you have two deployment methods:
    1. If you are deploying to a computer that already has the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine and any additional drivers required for your application, then you simply need to copy the .EXE to the deployment machine
    2. If you are deploying to a fresh computer that has no NI software, you'll need to create an installer. When creating the installer, you will need to look through the 'Additional Installers' sections and select any of the additional drivers etc. that are required for your application. By default, LabVIEW only includes the Run-Time Engine. If you are missing any of the 'Additional Installers,' the application will not run properly.

    Guitar21,
    your MacBook Pro has booted into its Recovery mode. From the OS X Utilities menu, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it get to the login screen now?

  • Adobe PDF Printer and Adobe Distiller Printer, from where to get these?

    I installed Acrobat 7.0 Professional from the CS2 suite.  During installation a message came up, "Warning 20225, Adobe Acrobat 7.0 set up was unable to create a new item: The Adobe PDF Printer Converter may be unavailable.
    Get last Error: The specified module could not be found."
    To convert WORD files to pdf I get "unable to find "Adobe PDF Printer or Acrobat Distiller" printer. I have run the installer in repair mode several times without success.  Where from and how do I get the Adobe Printer and/od Distiller printer from.  I have searched the Adobe web site with out success. Please help anyone who can.

    Yes, the software was installed while logged in as administrator,
    anti-virus was disabled too.  I first installed AA7 using my original disc
    and the same messages came up and the same problem existed i.e.. could not
    convert to PDF.  Uninstalled the software and installed again using the
    serial no given to me by ADOBE help,CS2. Nothing seems to work.

  • HT1515 can i hook up a ethernet printer and a usb printer to the same airport express

    I want to hook up an ethernet printer and a usb printer to an airport express? Is this possible and how should I set up the airport express?

    I have an Airport Extreme, 5th generation, that is hooked to the internet and is the source of my home network. I am replacing an old AXs 801.11g with an 801.11n unit. The need to run a printer on the USB port is because it is an old HP 7400 all in one with a wireless g card. I want to set the network up for all wireless N and 5 Ghz for hopefully faster network speed. It is my understanding that if the network is set that way, the wireless g printer will not be recognized on the network. Since I currently am running a ethernet only Xerox Laser on the ethernet port, I would need to hook the HP using USB inorder to keep it on the network for scanning and such. Thanks to you and your information, I think I have the bases covered. If there is a best way to set up the AXs, or if I am missing something more, I thank you in advance and look forward to your assistance.
    Thanks
