HP 4630 quit print with my Mac by USB cable

My Mac will print on my HP 4630 all-in-one - I had used USB cable.  He has done for about 5 months, but now I have the "looking for printer and not connected" message.  Please help because nothing has changed.  Thanks, Tammy

Hey @tammyj1000 ,

Thank you very much for the question, now lets get you an answer!

I understand that you are no longer able to print from your HP Officejet 4630 that is connect to your Mac via USB.

Did you check both ends of the cable to make sure it is plugged in back? I recommend you unplug both ends and blow the slits and insert the cable again.

Have you upgraded to all operating systems?

When you go to the folder of the printer that you see your printer there? Or is it not there?

Let me know the answers to the questions above and the results of autocorrelation. Have a great day!

  • OfficeJet 4630: Problem printing with Officejet 4630

    I just replaced an OJ4620, who was not black printing, with a new OJ4630.  I am now having a problem with the OJ4630.

    It prints text most very well, but does not always print the Abobe reader messages.  I tried to install a printer driver for the 9800 without great success.  It seems that sometimes it will print the pages of Adobe, but most of the time will not.  I feel guest, and when I click on print, it does not appear that the message arrives at the printer.  The machine will then lock up and I'll have to reboot the system.  The thing that puzzles me is that sometimes the feeling will pass, but it doesn't seem to be a reason that I can understand why it happens.

    I never had this problem with the 4620, but he feels now.

    I have Adobe X and when I check the updates on the site, I thought there is not everything.

    Hi @Fran47,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that you have a problem with your HP Officejet 4630 of printing when using Adobe Reader on Windows 7. I'm happy to help you!

    A few questions for you:

    • What happens when you make multiple copies? Copy the text or mixed Documents.
    • What happens when you print from other programs, such as Notepad. (The same issue happen?)
    • How is the printer connected? USB or wireless?

    In the meantime, I suggest to try our HP print and Scan Doctorand see if that can solve the problem for you automatically.

    Hope to hear from you soon and thank you for posting!

  • How can I check the interface of the printer with my Mac?

    I use a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.9.5.  I have a Kodak hung printer which worked beautifully until 3 days ago.  Now it is printing very light, barely able to read.  I did everything what others have suggested: changed ink, the printer cartridge out and cleaned, printhead maintenance - nothing works.  I know that a week ago, I received a message that there is an update of the software for my printer.  I wonder if that could have anything to do with it.  I don't know how to check this.  I love my Mac and my printer.  Help!

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus - Can no longer print with my Mac

    I have been using a printer HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus via my MacBook Pro (OS X Yosemite version 10.10.4) for about two years with no problems until recently.  Since a few days ago, I'm more able to print wireless, despite the fact that the printer is connected to the network.  Interestingly, the print queue reflects the print job completed, but pages do not print.  In my attempts to solve the problem, I have (i) restore factory settings and re-written information of network required on the printer; (ii) disconnected the printer and waited five minutes;  (iii) unplugged and reset the router. (iv) deleted and reinstalled the software and drivers printer on my laptop.  My laptop is in communication with the printer as evidenced by my ability to scan using HP Scan wireless, but I'm unable to print the document once it is scanned.  Finally, I am able to print the network settings Page in the menu of the printer, but not the printer web page... I get an error message saying 'the printer is busy. Try again later.  Any ideas to fix this frustrating problem would be greatly appreciated.  I apologize if my descriptions are not technically accurate because I am a novice when it comes to computers and networks.  Thanks a lot for your help.

    Thank you for your response and suggestions. I really appreciate it.  You beat me to the punch... only a few hours ago, I was able to get the printer working again... but I forgot to update my post.  As you recommended, I have reset the printing system, downloaded a new driver... hpprinterdriver3.1.dmg... added a new printer... restart the printer, my router and my laptop... and the printer from work once again from my Mac.  Yet once again, I appreciate your efforts... Bravo.

  • black and white printing with a mac

    I've recently upgraded from a Dell Windows PC to an iMac with OS 10.9. I use my old HP 6500e 710 a Officejet All in One.

    In general, I print most of my documents in black and white that was available on version Windows 7 driver.

    On the iMac OS 10.9 driver version, I can print only in black and white in "draft" mode

    Based on another ad I saw on this forum, the drop-down list for a different HP printer (I think than 8300) had the function Select B & W print in any quality. In addition, she had 'gray levels' selectable.

    I seems that my version of the pilot V2.4.0 - 2 does not have the full options compliment. HP needs to update this driver OS 10.9.

    Can anyone HELP!

    happytohelp01,

    I got an answer from HP Support pointing me driver for Apple on the support site software Apple; HP v.2.16.1 for OS X printer drivers.

    This is to "'http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907 '. "   Once I loaded it, I was given the following instructions:

     

    Step 3: Change the print settings

    1 open the document you want to print

    2. click on file , then print

    3. make sure that the correct printer name is selected.

    4. we'll find the orientation option, there are menu drop-down. Select the Type of paper/quality (see the attached screenshot)

    5. click on Color Options.

    6. Select the Grayscale under color

    7. click on print.

    You can create a preset using the procedure below so that you don't have to change the settings every time that you print.

    1. click on menu presets

    2. click on create new preset

    3. assign a predefined name

    4 confirm to create the preset.

    Next time, you can select the predefined name for the settings that you have made.

    This allowed me to print in B & W normal quality.

  • Printer will not connect via USB

    HP lj1022 printer will not connect not not via the USB port after the installation of the new driver upgrade hp lj1020/1022 for Windows 7 (64-bit). Driver seems to install properly until the moment where he is asked to connect the USB cable. Then he hangs up. HP lj 1020 printer appears in the display to the dashboard as the default printer. Computer recognizes the printer as hp printer lj1022 but in another "device not specified Panel when and only when the printer is on and the USB cable is connected." When printing, nothing ever comes from queue.

    Diagnosis is only that something is stuck in the queue and remove the task from the queue, but does not. Diagnostic shows no problem.

    The lj1022 printer accepts data from two other computers, as well on Windows xP and using the same cables. Three other USB ports have been tested on the new Windows 7 computer without results. The USB ports on the Windows 7 computer accept keyboards, mouse and flash memories wireless dongle without problem. The Windows 7 computer also sends data to a printer wireless with no problems.

  • Is it possible to connect the HP Photosmart C4780 Wireless printer without USB cable?

    Hello

    My family and I recently moved and while moving, something inevitably get lost or left for account.  I am fighting to get this printer and will so I don't have to bother people at the front desk at school to print my documents for me.  I have lost/misplaced both the HP Photosmart C4780 printer software disk and the USB cable.  I have no idea where these things are and have not found them within two months, we've been in the new House.

    I solved the issue of the loss of the installation disk by downloading it from the HP site.  My problem is now getting beyond the USB connection and get the currently installed software.  Because I run on a MacBook Pro, it always tells me that I need the USB key to continue the installation.  I'm on a Verizon Wireless router, and I even tried to find the printer on my wireless network with no luck.

    Help, please!

    Thank you.

    It's the type of cable you will need (ignore the color of the cable, the ends are the important part).

    Have a new router is not a problem, but remember the SSID and password wireless exactly, otherwise it will not work (if you decide to try Method 1). It's a bit like "trick" your printer into thinking that your new router is your old a long enough to configure the network settings for the new (desired).

  • How can I get my Konica Minolta 2430 to print with os 10.11.3 on my new mac mini

    How can I get my Konica Minolta 2430 to print with os 10.11.3 on my new mac mini? I have seen several threads form 2013 on 10.9. someone knows something about 10.11.3. I'm a novice, was fiddling with used Mac for several years, but don't want to lose a lot of time to understand. Thanks for any ideas you may have.

    Konica says that the printer is taken in charge by El Capitan?

    Konica has drivers for this printer? If it's an old printer, it is not supported in El Capitan

    Maybe:

    Apple may provide drivers for older printers?
