HP Color Laser Jet 1600: Hp color laser jet printer1600

Receive an error message when I try to print-"pilot error".  Don't know what to do.  Since 2007, I have the printer and I have no problem printing.

Hi ocean 67,.

Most likely, it is a problem of driver on Windows 10.  Did you recently do an update?  Some of the updates of drivers to kill.

First of all, just try dumping the entire driver from your computer.  Erase any trace of it.  Then, download and reinstall the drivers and reconnect/reinstall.  If you have USB, then it can never work right.  Windows 10 hate really older printers connected via USB.  You may need to connect through the network.  If you have a wired or wireless router, get a Cat5 cable and plug.

If reinstallation does not work...  Search for a 2605 driver and see if it will work.  The 1600 is a 'Lite' version of the 2600/2605 and rests more on the computer for the execution of the work. (aka host after)

This may or may not work.  I'm just you try things I would do on a customer site if I called on this issue.  Unfortunately it's so some 1600 running left that few people will have answers.  I don't have answers on the 1600 specifically, but am just relating to other similar situations, I've met.

I got color printers and multifunction not working on Windows 10 and other motor coaches next models.  It seems that they ignored the wishes of the printer when it is fighting the drivers and just forced to work.  You may have few features as the standard mode only, not the modes of picture or project, etc.

Also, do not try to print documents network or the internet.  This will give you a buffer overrun.  Place them in a folder on your PC and then open and print.

Good luck and please let me know if it works for you!

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    From your description, it seems that photographs in color of emails only print grayscale to HP Color Laser Jet 1600 printer.

  • Color Laser Jet MFP M277dw Pro: frequently updated software

    I am the owner of a color Laser Jet MFP M277dw Pro. I get updates almost every week, and the software update is very strange. I'm clicking on the update system, it takes a lot of time to meet up with the text saying I'll remove the actual update or add another device. When I say no, thanks, I'll get a message saying that my update was successful (but only if I have to cancel this message). I don't understand why I have to go through this illogical question. Also, I don't understand why it is not necessary to update very frequently, especially when there is no explanation of the reason why.

    The two just exclamation points annoy me because I think that there must be a problem with the software, even if the printer works well.

    Greetings @ahw,

    Thank you access the Forums from HP Support for extra support! I see that you have problems with updates of window for the printer software. I'd love to help you.

    Given that the printer works, I would say to hide updates.

    A poster tried to show or hide updates and it solved their problem.

    You can also give your feedback to Microsoft, and if all goes well, they will release an update to correct the function of the operating system. You can learn how here; Updates and feedback.

  • HP Color Laser Jet MFP M177fw Pro - Scanner Error 22

    I get the same Scanner Error 22 on the Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M177fw like many others have posted.  Tried uninstalling\reinstalling the software and tried the most common loading drivers but Scanner error prevented this piece of finish.  Support and I was told we would have to pay $49.95 for them to help us solve the problem.  We just bought this printer 5 weeks ago.  Is this all we can try?

    Thank you!

    Thank you for your response. This solution does not solve my problem. HP customer service had travelled me several tests (took about 20-25 minutes total) but ended up sending me a replacement printer. It arrived within two days and so far, the replacement works great. HP has also paid to have the original shipped in return. The process was fairly hassle.

  • 1525 laser jet color calibration

    I have a 1525 color laser jet that has 2 problems. One is a very pale yellow stripe on the right side of the page.  I can live with that, but it would be nice to get rid of him.

    The big problem is that blue color for printing is not properly calibrated, and there is a shift to what makes it fuzzy.  I tried to 'calibrate' the printer several times, and it makes no difference.  He got only 40K pages printed on it overall, is hardly old.  What should I do to solve the problem of calibration? As far as I can tell, I have all the software/firmware updates.

    Sorry for the late reply, I was not notified by e-mail. I was looking for all messages unanswered and came across yours.

  • HP Color Laser Jet CP1215: print - guard 'book light' flashing - printer stops charging of paper does not alter

    Hello!

    For about a week, I have the following problem with my HP Color Laser Jet CP1215: after 2-3 pages of printing, the device stops abruptly in the middle of a job and the light number 5 (paper) continues at the flashing light.

    However, the bin is full with paper.

    Ignitions and extinctions help only for another 2-3 pages, then printing will stop again as described above.

    Is there maybe a photoelectric cell that needs to be cleaned or a mechanical part that gives the status of bad paper from the paper tray to the printer?

    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Best wishes

    Herwig

    Hi @wigl,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that your HP Color LaserJet CP1215 printer stops printing when the print jobs. I'd be happy to help you 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 can see how frustrating it would be. To determine the cause, we need to use more than one document. Redundant that some steps may seem, I would execute all.

    Please, try the steps in this these guides:

    If the problem persists, try a hard reset:

    • Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
    • Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector. This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.
    • Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!
