• HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format: HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format Printer - E809a - loss of connection through router

  We have a problem get sustained response of our HP Officejet 7000 Wide Format Printer - E809a which is connected to the network wireless ethernet to a router Netgear cable.  We tried stripping on the software driver & uninstall of the printer of the registry, and then re-setup from latest downloads from the HP site.  It works, especially if the device is set as the default printer, but the printer greys out less than an hour in the device registry and the default value automatically resets to another printer.  Does anyone know why this printer loses his connection?

  Hi @Harry64,

  I see by your post that continues to change the default printer. I'd love to help you.

  Disable the SMTP setting in print, to see drivers if this will help.

  Devices and printers, click with the right button on the printer and click on printer properties, click the Ports tab, select Configure the Port, clear the SMTP check box and the printer should display online.

• Connected HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus status reads "problem with printer."

  I could just ePrint on an OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus replacement and them have not used for printing yet. I was in the devices page to manage the settings and change an address for one of my devices. The newly added column 8600 State reads 'Online', but also 'problem with printer '. Instructions I was referring to the display panel of the unit for Outlook2003 on the given problem. A check of the display surface showed no information, just a typical home screen. I checked through the display print and found no problems-all functionality is enabled and fully functioning. I checked then the functions of printer in the window 'Printers and devices' of all computers (all running Windows 7 Professional) on the office network. The 8600 are active and full functionality works correctly between the printer and all the computers.

  I then close the printer 8600, left for several minutes, and then lit it back and reconnected. The State says 'Problem with printer' remains in the device window HP.

  I am at a loss as to what this supposed problem can be and don't know what should be a next step. Does anyone have any advice or information that could help in this situation? It would be appreciated. Thanks in advance to those who could help

  HP support responded to my question by e-mail. I was told that the message 'Problem with the printer' is due to a bug in their system. Also said that as long as the status column indicates the printer is "Online" and everything else is fnctioning correctly, don't worry about this.

  I consider that a resolution of the post!

• Configuring the network for windows7 and computers portable XP with printer connected to the router

  Computer laptop windows 7 works with the printer lexmark that is connected to the router, but the laptop XP who worked with the printer can't find using the "add a Printer Wizard. Two portable computers connect to the internet O K

  Printers configured in this mode are better develop a fixed TCP/IP address.  Your printer manual should tell you how to do this.  In general, there is a 'Settings' menu on the printer where it can be defined.  The IP address should usually have the first three digits than other devices on the subnet (for home networks it would be something like 192.168.1.x) and the final number should be unique and apart from the DHCP numbers range that your router would normally assign (see the manual of your router).

• Printer not responding not connections (wireless printer) is good and solid. I replaced my old router wirelessly with a router of valuation. I had to plug it, but the printer does not respond now.

  Printer not responding not connections (wireless printer) is good and solid. I replaced my old router wirelessly with a router of valuation.  I had to plug it, but the printer does not respond now.

  Is what brand and model of printer?

  I do not work unless your new router has the same SSID and password wireless as the old. Consult your printer documentation to find out how to handle the situation. For example, some Lexmark wireless printers have a program called Configuration Utility Wireless in the Lexmark folder under all programs on the start menu that is used to set up the printer when changes are made to the wireless network.

• I have a printer HP (part of the package with the computer) which will connect via the USB port is no longer in my office. He has worked previously so, any ideas on how I can get it to work again?

  While I do not know there have been changes to the system (updates and so on), I don't know what modifications have been made or that one; If any, may be the cause of the problem. Compound that with, I can't get back far enough to get to the last time that I used this printer with this computer and it is a puzzle all around.

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

  A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

  A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

  Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

  Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

  Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

  How connect to this printer?

  Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

  Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

  Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

• If my printer USB cable is connected, my computer won't start?

  If the printer is on and the USB port connected.  The computer won't start.  If I turn on the laptop with the USB plugged in and as it starts and then turn on the printer, everything works fine.  Almost ok.  I think I should be able to leave the printer on all the time as I do at work.  Then when I start the computer, the printer is ready.  Every other printer I've ever had worked this way.  Any suggestions?

  Maybe the printer looks like a hard drive (some printers have card readers that make them look like a disk) and the computer attempts to boot from the USB drive instead of the hard drive?  It would be a modification of the settings in the BIOS
