DeskJet 3050 a print Virgin pages

I have a HP3050a all in one printer which works very well on my windows laptop 8.1.  However today, I tried to print a word document and I got was blank pages.  When I went into the HP print and scan the doctor, I was able to print the test page. Can someone help me please?

Hi @homesickblues,

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I appreciate it.

I found a thread of the Microsoft forums that solves the problem you are experiencing with MS Word send blank pages to print.  The title of the thread is Word 2010 Prints Blank Pages With No Text and there is a validated solution.

Please let me know the results.

    No matter whether this printer is default, I also have a Canon iP2600 and it works perfectly, it was also in the years of system, once again no change, I can't see that would not cause this problem.  There is probably a change, but it is over my head as to what.

    I see you are having problems printing with HP Deskjet 3050 a printer. I would be glad to help and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I understand how frustrating, it would be for you. You mentioned that you uninstall and reinstall the HP software. Looks like the drivers are corrupt, it is necessary to clean your system and try to reinstall again.

    Is the Canon iP2600 that printer as plugged in USB?

    You say that ' no updates Windows 7 or changes ", you have automatic updates is turned off? Please make sure that your Windows updates are up-to-date.

    When you install a USB printer, it is recommended that you disconnect the other USB printers during installation. In this way, the computer does not confuse the two and installs the correct driver.

    You unplug the Canon before reinstalling the HP Deskjet printer?

  • Example: Deskjet 3050 - J610: printer removes items in the print queue

    Please see problem posted on June 9, 2016 and thread support. Sorry, I don't know how to go on this subject but the problem that I've marked as being solved is no longer is. It it is possible to mark as resolved and to reopen the thread please let me know how and I would be glade to do. Essentially sent items to the queue printing are deleted until they can print. They show in the print queue and then are marked "delete." I ran Print ahd doctor Scan of my desktop PC, and he says that everything is OK with the printer. I can see what the ink levels in the printer, and it printed on the printer succcessfully diagnostic information when asked to do so. I can see all of the information on the model of the printer, the serial number etc. so it seems that the PC can see the printer. But it will not print emails or Word documents - while he has done it before. Problem seems to have started when I tried to scan a document in and it would not. Printer is connected wireless and has an IP address, it doesn't seem to be the firewall attached - I disabled the Anti Virus software and it will not print. It runs the Windows firewall good that cause issues? I disabled that too, but it did not help. I followed the intstructions given by Gemini02 a HP Support Agent and it seemed to solve the problem but it only did it once and then continued to remove items from the print queue. I also tried to turn off the printer and then the PC, left for a while and then restarted them and that seemed to work. He already showed the printer as offline and printing and scanning doctor fixed that but when I ran it but still it only printed once and then returned to the deletion of items in the print queue. Grateful for any advice anyone can offer please.

    OK, thanks for that.

    Here is the link for the drivers and software for your printer page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-deskjet-3050-all-in-one-printer-series-j610/4066450/model/4066451#Z7_3054ICK0K8UDA0AQC11TA930C7

  • DeskJet 3050 J611n print quality project to save ink

    DeskJet 3050 J611n.

    seems to have a very simple choice for the print settings in the printer properties. How do I change print quality of presetting of the premium for quality project that uses less ink per page?

    I don't need the full quality print every time and it is a waste of ink.

    Ditto paper waste: there is no setting for duplex printing automatic option?

    appreciate any thoughts on this

    Thank you

    I don't have a Vista machine handy to check, but in general settings don't 'stick' in Windows if done from an application but do when made from the Printers folder.  Try to go into the printers, right click on the Deskjet 3050, folder select Printing Options, choose what you like draft mode, apply, OK.

  • DeskJet 3050 j610a - printing problems

    I have a Deskjet 3050 j610a, who is about to throw in the trash. Print quality has deteriorated so that color printing is catastrophic and I tried everything suggested in the documents on this forum and HP assistance. The ink levels are OK. The paper is OK.

    When you browse the suggested fixes, when I get to the "page" to print and scan alignment, the alignment page is not detected.

    I completely deleted the software and drivers and re-installed the ' software HP Deskjet full feature driver and "of here.

    I am running Windows 7 and now when I go to start > all programs > HP > HP Deskjet 3050 J610 series > HP Deskjet 3050 J610 series, nothing happens.  Same thing when I double-click on the desktop shortcut pointing to 'C:\Program HP HP Deskjet 3050 J610 series\Bin\HP Deskjet 3050 J610 series.exe' - UDCDevicePage begin. Small swirling icon indicating the program trying to start and then nothing.

    I can't reach the 'printer' Actions / areas 'Tasks of Maintenance', etc..

    It takes too long to fix for a printer under $100.

    Should I persist or throw him out?

    Problem solved.

    I threw and bought an Epson.

    My time is worth more that it took to solve these problems.

  • HP Deskjet 3050 a print small images

    We use a printer HP Deskjet 3050 has to work and it's ok if we want to print just the text and images and text together on the same page, but when you go to print a picture on a page it prints just a small version of the image and puts it in the upper right corner, no matter the size make you. It is an iPad 2, I don't know if it does the same thing from a PC.

    Thank you

    Gareth

    With the help of the iPad AirPrint won't let you print on a different size. To be able to print on different sizes, you will need the HP ePrint app for iOS devices. You can get it on the App Store. I'll link more below. This should be everything you need to make it work. Let me know what happens.

  • DeskJet 3050 wireless printing

    I am using windows

    Is it possible to print to Deskjet 3050 wireless? No router?

    I wonder if it is possible to print wireless and have the printer to connect wirellessly to the laptop without going through a network (router).

    Currently I can fine prnt using the USB cable, but as for not using USB cable and wireless directly on the printer.

    I downloaded the manual and read it here...

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DocumentIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&ContentType=SupportManual&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=4066450

    It supports no special printing, so not, you must use a router or a cable.

    Hi @F45 ,

    I understand you are having problems printing of Yosemite. I'd love to help you.

    The drivers are installed by the Apple updates. Install a printer driver Mac using Apple Software Update.

    Check the name of the driver that is installed by the printer. Make sure that it shows just the name of the printer.
    Click on the Apple menu, click System Preferences. Click on Printers & Scanners, highlight the name of the printer on the left side and right side of the screen it should show the name of the printer. (Deskjet 3050)

    If the full name of the printer is not correctly, delete and add the printer name back from the list. Click on the sign - to remove the driver and then click on the + sign to add the driver, you may need to click the drop-down list to select the printer name to add it in.

    Try to print again.

    If you're still having problems, try the following steps:

    Fix permissions of the drive on the Mac:

    Close all applications.

    In the Apple menu, click OK, click Applications, and then click utilities.

    Double-click disk utility.

    Highlight your hard drive / partition on the left.

    Click on check and then repair disk permissions.

    Restart the computer...

    Reset the printing system:

    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

    Click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    Click on Printers & Scanners.

    Make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left white side panel, and then click Reset printing system.

    Click OK to confirm the reset.

    Type the name and the correct password.

    After using the cartrage of the color provided wih the printer, I never had the new fixed color cartrage, I used only black cartrage for my work. last week, I set a new color cartrage is the date of their importation, printed in the coverage of July 2013. Even after trying evrything like allignment, cleaning etc, I am unable to print color page prints always in black and white. Earlier maybe I did something to stop the impression that, even if not necessary it used to print in color if the document is in color. Help, please. its urgent for my son's school assignments

    Kind regards

    Hi Mihsra,

    I see that you can not print in color of the Deskjet 1050. From your description, I suspect that the problem may be in the settings of the computer.

    If you have a Windows operating system, review the steps below;

  • DeskJet 5550 cannot print the page to clean cartridges.

    DeskJet 5550, Win 7 64 bit, after clicking on the clean print cartridges, it does nothing. Power light is solid on. The menu box arrives with Click clean to clean the cartridges now. Clicking on clean makes this area of empty menu and nothing happens. No error or no program has stopped responding. Can the text and images fine print except that I need to run the utility for a few minor flaws. Past to the best setting which helped a lot. Does not print the calibration page either. Prints all the tests and the test page.

    I believe you can force a cycle of cleaning as follows: power on press and hold the power button, press on and release the button X twice quickly, then release the power button.  No page will print, but you should hear the printer to clean.  A more aggressive cleaning can be done by pressing the X button twice and once the page break button, a still more energetic cleaning by pressing the X button twice, then press the page twice break before releasing the power button.

    You can print a diagnostic page holding the power and then button by pressing the X button eight times followed by the button to jump to page four times, then release the power button.

    I had already completed a Page SEVERAL times.  I understand a solution: uninstall the basic version (originally installed from the CD at the time of purchase).  Downloaded and installed the version of ALL the FEATURES.  After alignment over a few guest, all right.
