• HP Color Laserjet 2550n will not print in color?

  My HP Color Laserjet 2550n will not print in color?

  I spent half a day Googling this issue and could not find any solution?

  When I press the go and cancel the 3 test pages print fine in color set button.

  But if I try to print anything from my laptop, it's all B & W.

  I already installed the latest version of PCL5, PCL6 and PS drivers from today:

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/readIndex?sp4ts.Oid=388401&lang=en&lang=en&cc=us&cc=us

  None of them print in color?

  I think that is the question:

  http://i.imgur.com/WM8Oy92.PNG

  But, how to fix this?

  My OS is Win 8.1Pro x 64 with all updates installed.

  The colour toners are 100%, black is at 28%.

  rk_russelking: your suggestions have been COMPLETELY & TOTALLY USELESS.

  I found the answer here:

  ... «in the printer properties, select the tab settings of the device, scroll to the very last item at the bottom, which is 'Device Type'.» The value displayed (which of course got auto-installé as a default value, for both PCL6 drivers), is "AUTO-DETECT". You would think that would work, but it apparently does not.

  In any case, by selecting the drop-down arrow, it turns out that there are three available values: AUTO-DETECT, COLOR and MONOCHROME.

  Of course she then had me select COLOR, click APPLY and then click OK. I repeated the process for the other printer PCL6. »

• HP Color LaserJet M553: M553 - cannot print two-sided

  Hello

  We have a new HP Color Laserjet M553 (B5L24A) which is not allowing us to automatic duplex.  He is currently runinng via a Windows 2008 R2 server and is network connected via IP static on the Ethernet cable.

  I tried several steps of troubleshooting so far:

  -Several including UPD PS 6.0 5.8 PS, PS 5.5, PCL5 printer driver

  -Several print on print server objects

  -Confirmed the 'device settings tab' has the duplexer enabled on the local print server and print objects

  -Updated firmware for the last datecode 20150731

  -Tested printing from several applications, word, outlook, pdf, internet Explorer, textfile, etc...

  -The same problem happening to all connected users

  The printer accepts orders for manual, automatic duplex printing simply cannot.  No error messages didn't report on Panel print, printer, client or server.  Trying to get your hands on a 2nd M553 so that I can confirm a double problem or not.

  Feels like a problem with the firmware where he does not understand the command duplexing automatic normal or did not recognize the duplexer is installed.

  Any ideas?

  Your model is not the two-sided model.  The duplex model is B5L25A and will say about this M553dn not M553n who is your model.

• M251nw color LaserJet pro 200: does print in black only, no color

• HP color laserjet M252dw: trying to print envelopes

  Have a new 252dw. Does not correctly print size envelopes. Prints gibberish? CCM, $JcC... across from the end of the envelope.

  Hello @mcrep,

  Thank you for showing your interest in the HP Forums! I see that you have problems printing of envelopes, they come out with truncated text. I want to help you.

  Here is a document to double check all the parameters of the print driver when printing envelopes (OS X).

  I checked the website and couldn't find the Full CV drivers for this model featured with 10.11. We can check to see what drivers are installed for 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. (Laserjet M252dw)

  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 might have to drop-down list to select the name of the printer to add a click.

  

  

  Let me know how was the name of the printer.

  You will have to perhaps download and install the HP v3.0 for OS X printer drivers.

  Can you print correctly from other applications?

  What application you use to print envelopes?

  If you're still having problems, please give the steps you have taken and the results, so I can help you more quickly.

  I would like to know if these measures worked for you. You can select the 'accept as Solution' and the 'Thumbs Up' buttons, which will help us and others see that we have the answers! Good luck!

• Color Laserjet 2605dtn - deteriorated quality printing (with images for comparison)

  I have had my HP Color Laserjet 2605dtn for about 5 years and have been very happy with it.

  But last week, I noticed that my print quality has deteriorated over time.

  I noticed by accident after the reprint of a color image, that I had already printed two years ago and after that comparison of the two it became clear that both the sharpness that the colors are not what they used to be.

  I use my printer quite often but not on this scale it might show "wear" already. I'm a teacher and so my wife and we print and photo assignments at home from time to time, but the printer is not used as a printer of office of all kinds.

  Attached to this post, you will find two pictures of the same image (a board game cards, I have DIY'ed two years ago) and you can see that the images either crisp and bright colors while the other is a little blurry and pale colors.

  I've already printed or a configuration page that is useful for the experts here determine what teard ant normal wear due to the "age" of the printer or is something else.

  Number of pages printed: 21192

  Number of pages printed colors: 5612

  Monochrome RET = enabled (not sure what that means)

  Toner hp original with black again (to see if it was the cause of my problem)

  All color toners are 25%

  The "bars" of green toner are clean.

  I hope someone can give me an easy solution...

  Thanks in advance.

  I do not see your spare part but the seal should help.

• Color LaserJet Pro 200 M251nw: bad Color Laserjet Pro 200 M251nw print quality

  Hello

  I've owned the above printer for 1 month and for the first two weeks, it worked fine. On his return from a week leave. When I now print the image resembles what I can only describe as if someone has dribbled water down causing the toners to face each other.  I cleaned and followed all the troubleshooting of things without success. I also checked the toner drums and they appear fine. Any help would be appreciated as I now seem to have a printer expensive usless

  Thank you

  Alan

  Hi @Al24,

  I read your post and see that when printing now, the image looks as if someone has dribbled water down causing him the toners to face each other. I will definitely do my best to help you.

  You use Genuine HP Toner?
  What are the levels of toner?

  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.

  Run the printer calibration.
  On the configuration of the system key touch printer, print quality, color calibration calibrate now.

  Print a diagnostic Page to see if you have the same results. Trying to determine if it is a hardware or software problem.

  Go to Setup, reports, arrow down and select diagnostic report.

  

  I have a document with several steps to run a clean and check the settings of the printer driver.

  Troubleshooting print quality problems.

  Make sure the paper type is selected and no paper said.

  Check if the drum unit for damage:

  1. remove the cartridge of toner product and check that the tape has been removed.
  2. check the memory chip for damage.
  3 examine the surface of the imaging drum on the bottom of the toner cartridge.
  CAUTION: Do not touch the roller (Imaging drum) on the bottom of the cartridge.

  His fingerprints on the imaging drum can cause print quality problems.
  4. If you see the scratches, fingerprints, toner or other damage on the imaging drum, replace the toner.
  5. If the imaging drum does not appear to be damaged, rock the toner cartridge gently several times and reinstall it. Print a few pages to see if the problem is resolved.

  The test pages come out the same?

  What kind of paper do you use?

• Problem: Shadow of light color on black background when printing

  Using InDesign CS3, PC.

  I have a book cover design that looks perfect on screen. There is a section with a black background and the letters of color above it. Also on top of this black background is a picture of a dinosaur (made in illustrator CS3). The image was placed in the InDesign file and has no color to the background. But when printed (Xerox Phaser), there is a colored shadow where the image superimposed on the black background section.

  There are also colored boxes on the other black background sections where shadows (35%) occur on black background.

  Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I've never dealt with 100% black in my drawings before and I have to do something wrong.

  Again, on the screen, you don't see none of these colored areas on the black top. It's only when I print as they appear.

  Thank you

• HP Color LaserJet 2605dn: 2605 HP prints in black

  After changing a blue and yellow cartridge, printer flashing but not print and not of documents in the print queue. NVRAM and Super NVRAM but still wouldn't print.  Configuration of network in the menu report (I'm not on a network, just a USB port on my computer) and supplies Status Page printed fine.  Tried rebooting, uninstalling and reinstalling anything does not. After trying to reports menu print a text page simple and solid black on 90% of the page was printed, no text.  After a few minutes, printer would print a blank page with only the following on this subject: GET /DevMgmt/DiscoveryTree.xml HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:8080.

  I looked at the pdf page to reset but return of my printer does not match the pdf page and I could not find any hole or test switch.

  It was working fine!  Until I changed two cartridges and the black cartridge is still 3/4 full.  I read on other posts on scanners goes wrong, but this seems very strange to happen suddenly after just changing the cartridge.  Can anyone suggest something before you buy a new printer.  Thank you.

  Update on the problem - the cause is not identified and I can assume only it had something to do with the Windows operating system rather than a fatal accident of mechanics in the printer.

  I was out of town for a week, the printer was not hooked; and I bought another printer HP in the meantime to be able to print (LaserJet Pro 400 which I am extremely satisfied).  HP support person called me on my cell phone while I was traveling and I asked that he call me when I'll be back and he said it would be and gave me a date and a time so I'd be available.  In anticipation of his call, when I got home, I connected the printer to my Win 7 Home laptop (64 bit) to test and it printed without fail!  No sign of the original problem.

  So what - the?  Some driver in Windows suddenly Act?  Who knows.  But the printer print documents and photos with no sign of problem.  So maybe a solution to some printer problems is unplug the printer, don't use it for a few days, plug it again and see if the problem recurrs.

  In the meantime, I am so happy with the b & w LaserJet Pro 400 that it became my main printer and I'm reserving the color HP 2605 for instances when I need color.

  Consider my problem solved unless I am writing again she reappears!

• Color LaserJet 2605 does not print

  My ColorLaserJet 2605 was printing very well - I finished work, then fed the following work and therefore, everything he says "print document" with the green light flashing - but nothing ever prints! I rebooted, reinstalled, nothing changes - it lights, initializes, said it's "Ready", and then when I try to print a 1 page, simple text without color or photos document, I get the same situation of non-printing - saying the document print, but nothing prints ever. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! Aggie 55

  First, go to the reports menu on the printer and see if you can print a configuration page. If it works, check your driver. If this does not work, then you can be problems to trainer.
