With Lion no connection with my HP Photosmart

Hello everybody,
I got Lion and now I am not able to connect the MacBook Pro with my HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-one C410b printer anymore!
I am really disappointed! I connected them also with USB. Nothing! The software had recognized the printer and automatically downlawded the driver.
Neverthless no printing, no utilities readability, nothing!
I checked the compatibility but the HP and Apple sites are not in accordance!
Is anyone able to help me? Thank you in advance.
Sorry for my English, I am still improving it!

According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669, your printer is supported. Try deleting the /Library/Printers/hp folder and the printer from Print & Scan. Then download the drivers using Software Update or from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
Hope this helps.

HI beachgrl,
Welcome back to the HP Support forums. I understand that you would like to learn what printables are available for your Photosmart C410 printer in HP Connected.
Once you are signed into your HP Connected account, if you type the link listed below into the address bar on your browser it should take you to a page that shows the printables you already have on your printer. Below the "Recommended Printables" section there is a search function. If you type in your printer model it will list the printables available for the Photosmart C410a. The results will be grouped by category. I have included a screen shot.
The address you need to type into your browser address bar is https://printables.hpconnected.com

Hp Photosmart 7510 keeps going offline. Any advice? Have tried everything I can find online about it but the answers are all dated 2008. Surely Apple has a way of correcting this by now. I have IMAC 10.6.8. It did this with my hp photosmart premium a

I have tried everything I can find online to correct this. Nothing works and all I can find online is dated 2008. Surely Apple has found a cure for this problem by now. This happened with my hp Photosmart Premium c309a as well. I thought it was a printer problem but It's happening now with the 7510 that is only a week old. And please, if you have a cure, don't explain in high tech computer language. I'm ok with the computer but not that up on high tech stuff. Thanks.

It is connected wirelessly. The other printer was connected with a USB. Getting it to print again---usually by just turning printer off and back on again. This usually results in getting 1 page printed. Then I have to do it again. I have deleted printer and reinstalled. I have changed IP from automatic to manual. I unplugged printer for a short time (1-2 minutes) and plugged back in. I have restarted both IMAC and printer after each process. This is really frustrating and time consuming, driving me nuts.

Is anyone having an issue with the hp photosmart premium c310a? I keep getting a "paper jam" error

I hope someone from hp is monitoring these posts. I am very disappointed with the new photosmart premium eAll-in-one. I just bought this printer in april and recently when printing, an error message "paper jam" will pop up after just printing 1 or 2 pages. I did all the recommended troubleshooting steps hp has online but after printing a couple pages error message comes back. And thats not even the worst part! I called hp tonight 4 TIMES to get this issue resolved because at this point I want a new printer sent to me! I have been hung up on 2 times and then told the other times that I need to talk to a case manager. Guess what? No case manager available to talk about my printer issue!! I spoke to 6 different representatives with NO help to be found. I cannot return to staples store where I bought it because its after the 14 day return policy hp has with staples. That is the MOST STUPIDEST policy I have ever heard of!! If I knew in advance that I could not return this printer to the store I got it from after 14 days have passed, I would have NEVER BOUGHT IT!! I am still waiting for a case manager to call me back so that I can get this thing picked up ad a new one sent to me.

Try this:
Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
Apply this.

My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC??

My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC?? Checked for software updates and are none. Talked with HP help and they say it's an Apple problem

I noticed that you said you uninstalled the printer, but you didn't mention resetting the print system. Resetting the print system will reset the drivers the Mac has installed and make them work like they should. Give this a try and see if it gets the printer working like it should. The document below will expalin more about doing this.
Basic Printer Troubleshooting Steps for Mac
If that doesn't help, see if you are using the AirPrint driver, or the printers driver. By default 10.8 uses the AirPrint driver if the printer supports it, so I'm betting that's the driver you're using. If it is, try using the driver for the printer itself. To do this, access Print and Scan. Click the + sign to add a new printer. Select the printer from the list. Click the dropdown next to Use and select the 7515's driver. Let me know what happens.

My OS is windows 7 64bit. My computer will not communicate with my HP Photosmart A 646 portable printer.

Printing on custom-sized pages (10.625" x 11.69") with my hp photosmart pro b8350.

I need to be able to print on custom-sized pages (10.625" x 11.69") with my HP Photosmart Pro B8350. In fact, it's the only reason I have this printer. I used to be able to, and don't know why I can't now. I did upgrade my OS to Win7 a while back. That may have been the killer. It would really annoy me if my OS upgrade has rendered my printer totally useless.
(In case there's no solution to my problem, then here's my next question......)
If I can't do this anymore, I will need to buy a new printer that WILL allow me to print these special custom pages. Any suggestions?

The envelope size that you might be talking about is a 6.75 Regular, or 6.75R. If you were printing on window envelopes, it would be 6.75W. In all my life, I have never heard of a #6 ep. Yes, you have a challenge with 6.75 because the rollers are not in the correct place for this size of item. In order for me to print 10R envelopes, I have to insert a precut sheet of paper inside the envelope so that the envelope pulls correctly and doesn't get jammed. You might try this with your 6.75 and see if that works for you.

Mac lion os x 10.7 & hp photosmart c5500.

I am need of DESPERATE help. I've searched all over the internet for answer to this problem I'm having with my HP Photosmart C5500 Printer, I am trying to either connect it via Bluetooth or Network Connection (If this printer is even capable of that?), it will not pair with the bluetooth on my Mac Lion 10.7 for some reason, when I try to link the two devices I get an error message saying "the device does not have the necessary services". If anyone has a solution PLEASE HELP.

Hi aig91,
I had the same issue but I'm afraid that duplex printing isn't possible with this printer. Arrrrrgh! I wouldn't have bought this printer if I'd noticed this fact in advance.
It seems crazy that a brand new printer model from HP would ship without this capability.

Can No Longer Connect Wirelessly to HP Photosmart D110 after Comcast All-in-One Modem Upgrade

Hello,
I just replaced my former modem +router setup with a new "all-in-one" "Wireless Gateway 1" modem from Comcast (model # TC8305C). The setup guide for the new modem states: "The Wireless Gateway 1 is an all-in-one product that connects XFINITY internet and home networking. It provides wired and WI-FI connectivity, so there's no need for a separate router." I was previously able to connect wirelessly to the Photosmart D110 from my laptop. When I tried to update the network information on the printer sing the printer's Wireless Setup Wizard, the network name did not appear in the list of available networks. I added the name, as requested, and then added the network password associated with the new modem. However, the printer's Wireless Network Test Report said that "the printer cannot find my wireless router." Specifically, the Test said that the new network name was found, but said that the passcode was incorrect. I repeated the setup 3 times and did type the network passcode correctly. Will the printer not work wirelessly due to the new all-in-one modem? Is there a way to remedy this? I apologize for being pathetically non-technical, and would be grateful for any assistance! Thanks.

OK, first wireless Gateway (modem/router combo) units are terrible for wireless connection. It is always, always best to use a separate modem and router in your network that YOU have control over instead of Comcast. If you have your old router it would be best to call Comcast and have that Gateway put in Bridge mode (disables the router section) and connect your own high quality router. With that said, let's try this. Set the router to a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto'. If you still can't connect, remove all security off the routers SSID. Now try to connect to your SSID with no security. Are you successful?

How to connect to the HP Photosmart 7520?

How do I connect my Mac to the HP Photosmart 7520? I've been trying to do this all afternoon.
Error message is Setting up Photosmart 7520 Series [D52F8A]
The software fo this printer is currently unavailable. lase the printer's manufacturer for the latest software."
I realize that I should contact HP. Have you ever tried to that? I've written in capital letters over and over.

I am having the exact same problem. I have downloaded the HP software for OSX. But, when I install it, and the system asks me to add the printer, the dialogue goes out to Apple's site and comes back with:
Setting up Photosmart 7520 series The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software.
I cannot get it to find the HP software that has been loaded.
Any ideas?

Losing connection with wireless hp photosmart printer: tried everything

Hi there,
I'm a new Dutch guy here, so sorry if I appear newbie-ish and if my English is imperfect...
I've recently bought an iMac (finally!) and a wireless HP Photosmart B210a printer. I'm having trouble with my printer, which is connected wirelessly through a TP-Link WR1043N router.
After I installed the printer, I was able to print and even scan wirelessly. But after a while, I somehow can no longer print or scan. This problem persists even after re-installing the printer.
This is what I did trying to solve the issue:
1 uninstall the printer using the hp uninstall utility, using the 'scrubbed method' (pressing <ctrl><option><command> when clicking Uninstall)
2 delete any item containing "hp" of "print" in its name in the preferences folder in the library
3 reset the printing system by pressing <ctrl> and clicking the printer list in system preferences
4 run software update from the apple menu
5 download the latest printer drivers from hp.com (PSAIO_08_B210_USW_Full_Mac_WW74.dmg) and install the printer
6 reserve an IP-address for the printer in the router settings
7 set the ip-address in the printer's wireless settings
8 download the latest printer drivers from the apple website via this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907 and install them (executing packet scripts takes a lot more time than indicated: 'less than a minute' appears to be an arguable period of time)
Unfortunately this doesn't do the trick for me
When I print a page, it works the first time but after that I simply can't print. The print job is stuck, while the print task list keeps searching for the printer indicates that it is off line.
I can access the printer's built-in web server by entering it's IP-address in my web browser (I can even scan using this web page!). When I run the wireless setup wizard on the printer, the stuck print job comes out eventually...
Any suggestions?

It did not work after all...

Does anyone know how to get apple mail in Lion to connect with Exchange 2007?

Does anyone know how to get apple mail in Lion 10.7.2 to connect with Exchange 2007? It worked perfectly with Snow Leopard... upgraded to lion and it won't work. We use Exchange 2007 with SP 3 and Rollup 4. Won't connect... and I can't get Apple to give me any direction.

We finally got it to work today. We had to call and pay for the microsoft support service, but the issue was on the server end. We had to go into the iis manager... went to sites... when to default website...and changed the SSL settings for Auto Discover, EWS Exadmin, echange, exchweb, owa... and the rest..
Change the settings to ignore client certificates.
Problem solved. Can finally send and receive.
