Help: Connect printer Brother Fax 2820

Attempt to connect existing Fax Brother 2820 printer to new desktop, Lenovo with Win7Pro. Have already tried:

1. download of at least 3 times the selection of Microsoft; removed 2 of them.  By the 2nd try I chose to "update" any incoming pilot, so this shouldn't be a problem.

2. in one of these attempts, I configured a new port with the printer. \\computer\printer name, as suggested by some.

So far - no test pages are printed for any of my attempts. Queues are form, and when I chose "Troubleshoot", the system says 'his removed from queue', so 'its fixed "; but still no test page printed.

And it's also weird: using 'ctrl-p' only results in the "print window" which appear SOMETIMES, not all the time.

My pc is for domestic use only, it is not an office; no sharing, BTW.

Can someone please help and in doing so, also answer a few possible problems:

3. is there a problem with the 'sharing' of my pc, but not the printer, or vice versa? (I am familiar with all the intricacies of 'networking') do I have to re - try 'no sharing' of the two?

4. is there a certain port, I have to use simply because I have a certain pc?  I just used 1 port usb 2.0 at the back.

5. Finally, I have to worry about deleting completely each add printer. That is to say, "admin" level withdrawal - I selected 'removed the device' in 'devices & Printers' and the icon is deleted; is that enough?

I'm so frustrated...

Thank you all for reading and especially for all those who would be kind enough to help!

THANKS, Stubham!

Very nice of you to respond w / another suggestion (I don't know if I could have used this suggestion because I have a different Win7 on this new desktop PC), but - I just use a different port and voila!  This MARKET!  Until one of my downloads worked with some port - I am so relieved!

Thanks again for your kind spends time and experience - your answers also gave me a positive impression of the real customer of any society (a rarity these days) service, in this case, a "Monster business."

    @dman51

    Assuming that the full feature software is installed, the following may be enough to solve:

    Set as the default printer

    I don't know how 'disable' the fax software - if you do not set the parameters, fax is essentially disabled the fax program does nothing - useful or harmful.  You need a landline connected to use fax - leave the disconnected landline and fax is essentially disabled.

  • Hp7520 prints a fax several times

    My HP 7520 just started to print a fax several times. It was working fine before this. It seems to be of those who fail after 3 attempts to fax service.

    Hi chitchman7000,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems with the printer print fax several times.

    Please remember that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a strip bar. HP printers have built in surge protector and if you have connected it to a strip bar, the printer will NOT get all the power it needs to function properly and it could cause communication problems with the part of the printer fax.  Here is a document that explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

    Please note that the printer listed in the document is a LaserJet printer, and it is used only as an example and that the document is intended for HP products in general.

    Please also check the telephone cable that is plugged into the number 1 slot in the back of the printer to make sure it's the appropriate cable two connectors of copper for the fax.  If you remove the cable from the phone and look at the transparent plastic at the end of the cable plug, you will be able to see the copper strips. If you see 4 strips then you have poorly connected phone cable and this could very well be the question.

    Please do not hesitate to write me again and I'll be happy to offer more assistance.

    Thank you for your time.

  • HP Laserjet P1102w does not appear in the list print and fax OS 10.5.8

    Receive a HP Laserjet 1102w and tried to install it on Mac OS 10.5.8.  I downloaded and ran the HP drivers but when I go to add the printer in system preferences/printers and faxes in the list of available printers is empty.  I tried several routines suggested by a search on the web about the problem without result.

    Everyone out there solved this problem?

    Thank you for your attention.  I found the solution.  See below.

    The printer is connected by USB and I also tried to get the wireless connection.  I had intermittent progress on both fronts, but could not make a successful installation of USB connection or wireless connection.  The printer would "disappear" the list of available printers (using the '+' to add a printer, OS 10.6.8) or does not meet the installation commands.  And I could not connect the printer wireless to my network of 'take'

    Print the configuration page was of no use.  If the printer is unable to connect to the wireless network, it reports the IP address of the printer such as 0.0.0.0.

    TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM

    (clicking + under "Print and Fax" printer is not displayed or the name of the printer is removed)

    (1) replace the USB - the original was sensitive to cut;

    (2) give up the wireless - to - wireless set up methods - no amount of factory reset does not erase block of connection of mystery;

    (3) set up the connection through a USB cable wireless (good);

    (3) to switch the browser used to display the configuration page from the printer in Firefox (for Mac OS 10.6.8 34.0.5) for Safari

    (4) use security mode WPA (WEP not as suggested by HP help files).

    The main troublemaker was the bad USB cable.  Go to put wireless in place assume that the printer can connect to the network. As already mentioned, the WiFi was not working.  Network blue light would not come into balance.  A transmission option was blocking handshaking between the printer and my wireless router.  I tried unsuccessfully recommended factory reset methods.

    I needed a good USB connection to access the printer configuration options.

    Don't know which increased with Firefox - a plugin bad or something?  It would be not just connect them to the printer via IP addressing.  Safari worked fine.  (The printer is now successfully Setup that Firefox has decided to work too.)

    THE SOLUTION IS:

    (1) connect the printer and Mac via a cable (good);

    (1) use Safari to go to the printer setup functions (through the system preferences/print & / fax options & supplies show printer web page);

    (2) follow the recommended configuration options (HP support for Laserjet P1102w, OS 10.6, via a USB cable to connect wireless);

    (3) select the appropriate wireless in the list;

    (4) restore WPA security mode; and

    (5) to give the printer the correct wireless network password.

    Thank you and the forum, for your help.

  • Office Jet 8610: Print the faxes that I missed

    How to print the actual faxes that I've not received when I was out of ink printer? I have a list of fax numbers - tried - to send faxes for me, but what I can see is the fax number, that they sent, the date and time they sent and the total number of pages. Any ideas? Thank you! StarSema

    Welcome to the HP community @StarSema,

    I read your post on how you're looking to print the faxes in memory of your Officejet 8610, and I hope I can help you. From my memory, you should be able to access the Fax Menu in the configuration Menu of the printer and look for the history of Fax and reprint the faxes in memory.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see you are trying to have an all-in-one Officejet 5610 printer. The printer has no permanent memory and does not store the work print or fax. It is useless to try to obliterate the memory of the printer.

    (1) what is the serial number and model of the printer?

    (2) was there any software or hardware changes made on the computer before this problem?

    This problem occurs because the print spooler service is damaged.
