Cannot print from my Mac OS, but my other computers work

Have you experienced an impression of your Mac computer problem and it seems to work for everything else?

I looked at several positions with regard to printing to a Mac.  PrintDoc seems has a solution that can solve most of the Mac printing problems when other devices work.

1 reset the printing system by clicking on Mac OS x: how to reset the printing system and following the steps exactly.  This will reset just the printing system to a new beginning.  This works for 10.5 to 10.7.

2. download and install the driver package Apple has here.  This package will work for most HP printers.  There is a link at the bottom of the page of the driver to check that your printer is included.  If this is not the case, check the HP support and page drivers at www.hp.com for download the driver package for your printer.

This will solve the problems printing on Mac systems when the problem is related to the Mac.

I just wanted to share this information, as it seems to be a problem that arises, and who has an easy solution.

  • print from my Mac

    When you try to print a document of 3 pages of my computer, my ENVY 7645 select all pages, only print Page 1. When I try to select, say, page 2 and press on print, I receive a message that no page has been selected to print even if I chose «from page 2 to page 2»

    Hi @tposh,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you cannot print from your Mac OS X 10.10 to your printer HP Envy 7645. I'm happy to help you!

    To get help, I'll need to know:

    1. If the printer is connected, USB, Ethernet, or wireless.
    2. If the printer is able to make copies. Copy of the Documents or photos with a HP ENVY 5640 5660, 7640 e - all - in - one, HP Officejet 5740 and 8040 e - all-in - One Printer Series.
    3. If the power cable is connected to a surge protector, or directly to a wall outlet. Questions when it is connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power. This is true for printers and ink jet.

    In the meantime, please have a look through this guide, "Printer is off-line" Message appears on the computer and the printer does not print: Mac OS X. Select v10.8 Mountain Lion OS X and OS X v10.9 Mavericks and follow these steps as they will work on Mac OS X 10.10.

    Hope this guide helps and hope to hear from you soon!

  • HP 6520: Cannot print from 2016, Word and PowerPoint 2016 but may leave Excel on HP 6520 2016

    Have charged the current driver... Can print from Excel 2016. But can't go to Word or PowerPoint-2016. Paper goes through but not print.

    Thanks for getting back to me with this information.

    The first thing I would do is check the software and printer drivers. This can be easily done by downloading and running the tool HP Print and Scan Doctor. This tool can diagnose and solve many software issues of print and printer.

  • Cannot print from Firefox 3.6.13

    Cannot print from Firefox. 3.6.13. says it's printing, but only a blank page comes out of the printer. Safari works fine, but I like Firefox. With the help of Mac 10.6.5.

    Probably caused by a Bug in Firefox, which is supposed to be fixed in versions of Firefox 4.0. Until Firefox 4 is out, my suggestion is to use the preview before printing and if the preview is empty use Safari to print this page. This extension will allow you to click right into Firefox and open the same page in Safari, so you don't have to copy' only paste the URL.

  • My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air

    Hello

    My HP Officejet Pro 8600 cannot print from my MacBook Air. It keeps on showing "the printer is not connected", but the display on the printer connected. I often reset the printer "EVERY TIME" I want to use. I also tried to turn off my laptop and printer several times before printing. If I'm lucky, it will work maybe for one or two prints. If no luck then I have to reset everything again. Sometimes I reset the printer, the printer is not displayed on my selection.

    Hello boojoo1tw,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are unable to print most of the time with your Officejet 8600. How is the printer connected? USB or wireless? What is your operating system on your Mac computer? Click here to find out.

    If your wireless printer, then I recommend the award of an 'IP address' by following this HP document on printer does not maintain the wireless connection.

    Please post your results, I'll be looking forward to hear from you.

  • Why: print from a user account, but not the other?

    On a computer, we have two user account: an admin mastering (Bev), the other without (BevsGuest).  Note that this is not 'the' guest account.

    We have no printing problem on behalf of Bev.  But we cannot print from the BevsGuest account.  Sorry, but I forgot the error message we get.  But we receive the error of several applications - Excel, Word, Google Maps, etc.

    This who should I seek to explain the problem?

    I'm sure that's enough information for someone to propose a specific solution.  And I cannot possibly answer follow-up questions because I'm away from the computer at 400 miles at present.

    I'm looking for simply advice.  I'm not familiar enough with the Windows o/s to find out how this could happen.

    My WAG is: it's a permissions problem.  But if this is the case, I don't know where to look for the permissions property, which may be the cause of root, let alone how to fix it.

    The problem started a few times in a few months; He worked many years.  I can't say exactly when the problem started, or what has changed in the meantime, because: (1) I use the computer only every few months. and (2) someone else maintains the computer, for example to install Windows updates.  Not to say that this person could have; but usually it is very minimal.

    The computer is located in a private residence, not not part of a corporate network.  Is there any other computers.  The printer is wired, not wireless.

    I could try to roll back to a system restore point.  But it would be a shot in the water, and I'd rather make minimal changes.

    Hello

  • HP MFP M225: cannot print from my computer while receiving a fax

    We cannot print from our jobs while receiving a fax.  Just had a big fax that took 20 minutes to come through, our work was at a standstill because of this.  Have had other multifunction machines that we could print or copy when you receive faxes.  Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing?

    Hi @spd9602,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! I understand you want to be able to use your HP LaserJet Pro colour M225 while she receives a fax.

    There is no setting or feature that you are missing. When a Fax is coming through, you cannot use the other features of the LaserJet printer.

    Even if you print a document, you would be unable to receive a fax or make a copy.

    One alternative may be scanning and sending larger documents then the LJ is not supported by a function for so long.

    I hope this helps!

  • Cannot print from FSX w/acceleration, no further questions. Running Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have FSX w/acceleration installed for a few years now on my HP G71 dual core laptop and it works great, that I had no problem at all. It was my first attempt to print from it however. I wanted to print a flight plan, click on the "print" button and nothing happened. I went to the Panel, open Printers and devices, and my printer was there, online and ready without papers pending. I went to properties and even printed a test page, so I know that the issue is not with the printer. For some reason any FSX does not send the document to the printer. How can I remedy, which should look and where? Thank you in advance for any light that can be shared.
