• New router, same info. Printer does not connect. Help?

  I have a printer all-in-one Officejet 4620 wireless. I have a new router (the same brand and model brand new), and none of my info has changed. My printer does not connect to the internet more. Always has the info saved just does not connect. I had to re - enter the password in all my other wireless devices, but how do I do on this printer? I'm sure it's my fix. I have searched all over the Control Panel, all the web help HP, used the scan doctor and even called HP and they said that my warranty is out I have to pay for my support. Still an issue like this... Was a bit irritating. Or if I have to reset the printer to the factory and Redo setup wizard is too cool. I tried this one on board printer under network without success. Any help on this would be great! Thank you!!

• My HP Deskjet 5740 printer does not recognize my new HP Photocartridge 348

  My HP Deskjet 5740 printer does not recognize my new HP Photocartridge 348. It is brand new, not expired, official but I only get black prints. I can't find anything useful on the HP support site. The printer is not set to only print in black.

  The cartridge goes in the slot for cartridges of blacks, there is no colourcartridge in the other location at this time. So either he needs a color cartridge to work together (but how to know I'm not only to print my photos with the colourcartridge and using the photocartridge as a black cartridge cheap?) or the printer believes that the photocartridge is just one other black ink cartridge.

  Any suggestions?

  The Photo cartridge has not all the colors, Photo black, cyan and light magenta.  It is used in conjunction with the color cartridge (which feeds the cyan, magenta and yellow) for photo printing.

  If you want to print in color, you will need a color cartridge.  The color cartridge can print in black (approximately) by itself, but the photo or black print cartridge cannot print without the color cartridge color.

• HP deskjet 2540: HP 2540 printer will not connect to new router

  Hi, we just changed internet service providers and the printer will not connect to the new router, our HP laptop computer presents the printer in the list of network devices / wireless, but will not accept the password of network to the router when I ask him to connect. Makes me crazy! I have re-installed software etc. to connect the drive and make me anywhere I hope someone can help!

  Replacement/change your wireless router, try here.

  http://www.HP.com/global/au/en/wireless/reconfiguring-system-Help3.html

  Make sure that your router is set to a fixed channel wireless as the 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto '.  Try channel 1 first and then the other one at a time.  Make sure that the printer and the router are spaced at least 5 feet.

  However, if you have a gateway device (modem + router), all gateway devices are terrible for connectivity and wireless performance.   If this does not work, suggest you put this bridge in full bridge mode device and install your own router of high quality that YOU have full control over.

• HP Deskjet 3055 A does not connect to the WIFI with security

  I'm trying to configure a Deskjet 3055 A on my DD - WRT router.  I am a highly qualified network engineer, so I don't know 100% what I'm doing.

  First, DD - WRT supports WPS connection, because these are very precarious.  This means that my only way to connect the pritner to my home network is to connect to my PC and use the Setup utility (downloaded from your page drivers) I use the 28.8 version.

  My router supports the 2.4 and 5 GHz and I know the printer is only 2.4 GHz.  I disabled completely the 5 GHz network in order to connect the printer, even though it shouldn't have any effect.

  I restarted my router and reset the printers wireless network using its integrated control panel.

  In any case, after a shameful 2 hours troubleshooting, I did discover that the printer WILL NOT CONNECT to the WIFI network if any security is applied against it.  It works 100% fine with open security however, it is totally unacceptable.

  I tried both WPA Personal and WPA2 Personal, both with the same effect.

  For reasons to try, I added also the printer to my network WIFI open and tried to manually change the setting WIFI via webinterface of printers, however, whenever I try and access the wireless configuration wizard, I simply get an error message saying "Internal system error" - eventually I managed to work around this another bug that has been there for years (see http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/Internal-System-Error-prevents-access-t...

  After installing printers web interface WIFI, the problem is always the same and it does not connect.

  HP, we were in the order of 2500 of these printers for users of our remote site.  If you don't come to the top with a quick solution/bug fixed, consider the lost business!

  Concerning

  Ian

  After playing well, I managed to find a solution for this!

  For all users who are unable to find a solution by using the other methods, here's what to do.

  Change your local network to open the safe but note your WIFI settings for your default installation.

  Connect the printer to the open network the HP software (via USB cable)

  Go to the URL of the printer, but make sure that you connect through HTTPS - if you get an internal system error, keep refreshing until it works (WHAT A JOKE!)

  Click on 'Network', then click 'Advanced' on the left.

  Enter the network settings as they need to be secured.

  Downstairs, check "in an infrastructure network, use 802. 11b / g behavior (assuming that your assisted supports g, otherwise use the b only option), then click on apply.

  Turn on your wireless security, on your router and then the printer should connect!

  I am really confused as to why this is not automatically enabled, if the printer is not working with security on a Wireless N network wireless, then have this as the default!

• DeskJet 2540 print do not.

  Newly implemented and worked fine but now 26 stacked elements ready to print and nothing have reloaded diskprinter installation doesn't work is no higher as indicated in the subject line

  Hi brugar,

  Thanks for getting back to me with the information on the computer.

  I have a few steps we can take to try to solve this problem.

  First of all, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a bar/power strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer for example, but it is intended for HP products in general. Please click the link which explains the problems when connected to an uninterruptible power supply/Strip/surge protector power.

  Please remove the USB from the printer and computer, and leave that it disconnected until further notice.

  Please click on the link that explains the steps to uninstall the printer software.

  Once the uninstall is complete, reboot the computer.

  When the computer is back running, disable the firewall or anti virus protection so that it does not all conflicts cause when we do the installation.

  Please click on the following link for the HP Deskjet 2540 all-in-One Printer series full feature software and drivers.

  Save the file on the desktop so that it creates its own icon.  This will make it easy to find download.

  Double-click the new icon and follow the installation steps.  The installation will prompt you as to connect the usb cable then please do not it connect before hand.

  If troubleshooting doesn't help not solve your problem, then I would say call the HP Technical Support to see all the other possibilities for you. If you call in North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, please click here: click here.

  Thanks for your time.

• DeskJet 2540 software does not open

  I recently bought a HP Deskjet 2540 and it was fine for a while. It still prints well but I'm not able to open the software to analyze things more. It asks me to choose if I want to use the wireless or the USB option, and then he said: it is "recovering the device information", but then it just closes and nothing happens! What should I do?

  Hi there day, thanks for the reply

  Try power cycling network devices:

  Turn off the printer and the computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press the buttons on the router).

  Plug the router back in and wait another minute, turn on the printer and the computer.

  Also, if it isn't already, plug the printer directly into the wall, avoiding bars, surge protectors, etc.

  If the power of the cycle does not work, uninstall the printer software and reinstall the printer using the printer HP install wizard for Windows.

  Good luck

• Canon printer does not connect via the IPP Protocol

  I work in a company that sells printers offices/schools/etc. Yesterday, we received a call from a customer indicating that the Copier, we sold them connected not to a new computer they bought.

  I went to the site and noticed that the computers in question were all purchased during 3 months and all loaded with Mac OS X El Capitan. Most was registered on 10.11.3, and some 10.11.2 and 10.11.1. All computers work turned Yosemite.

  We receive a message somewhere in the sense of "Communication error. This printer may not be able to [print], you want to save it anyway? »

  It was a cannon imageRUNNER Advanced C5235. The client declares that if he saved the printer, it would not be able to print, but would still see jams paper, messages and other statutes of the computer printer toner. After attempting to remove and reinstall the printer using the most recent driver available on the Canon Website, we received the same error, the customer received. We escalated it to Canon support, who asked us to choose LPD instead of the PPI for the Protocol, allowing the printer to you connect and start printing on all devices running El Capitan.

  After further research, to my knowledge, the ISB is more recent and has more features that the LPD, although I couldn't find much on it so I was uncertain about the origins of these two protocols, except that they were introduced in the 1990s. I know it's kind of vague, but is better/more recent than PPI LPD? If so, great. Otherwise, is there a way to solve this problem and get computers that run El Capitan to connect correctly using IPP?

  The problem here is that the driver Canon UFR2 or PS that was used on the Mac to print in ADVANCE of Canon C52xx does not support PPI. This is why you must use an alternative Protocol.

  Note that it is possible to print to the C5255 using the PPI, but you need to use the Canon PPDs which means the copier must have the kit installed Postscript printer and you get not the pretty picture base views the pilot UFR2 and PS to give you.

  Second point is that the Canon UFR2 and PS drivers, it is preferable to use HP Jetdirect-Socket to the LPD protocol. He sent larger packets and verifies the status of the target unit - LPD simply sends data to the fixed IP address so if the printer has a problem you don't get this information until you walk up to the photocopier.

  I hope this helps. Answer if you need more information.

• My printer does not connect to Web Services.

  I wish I could ePrint.  I use my wireless (Apple's Time Capsule) and I am able to print wirelessly on my Photosmart 7515.  The printer is connected to the wireless network.  BUT Web services will not work and ePrint now does not work (it worked when I first set up the printer, but is no longer works).

  Troubleshooting page here used on... off site and return on internet connection and printer from the console, then on to connect to Web services, somehow that had been extinguished, but has not been highlighted by one of the errors provided, lit, which allowed ePrint and then after waiting a few minutes while pending jobs do not print , he returned to cancel the manual DNS entry proposed in the above posts and chose automatic DNS.  Immediately the ePrint and printed elements works now.

  Thank you.

• My Mac Pro and HP Deskjet 3070 PowerBook does not connect via a wireless network from dorm

  Both my laptop and printer (an all-in-one) are connected to the same wireless network dorm, but they do not connect on it.  They connect only wire using a USB cable.

  I have for the MacBook Pro and the Deskjet printer IP addresses but no way to use to establish a connection.  I don't have access to the network router.  When I test the connectivity, the software tells me, "too many networks."  He can't make a choice!

  Interestingly, I have my MacBook Air along this journey, too, and the two MacBook have no problem of communication on the same network of dorm.

  Is it possible to plug these devices such as computers connect or should I remain attached to the USB cable to use my new printer?  I guess you know how I feel about this.  Thanks for your advice.

  You are right.  There is no way to bypass security protected by password and thus to connect a Mac to a Deskjet 3070 via a secure network without access to a router, and a password.  However, even without access to a network or a router, there is a workaround solution.  In my case, where the technical ability to correctly configure the router and the printer is beyond the understanding of the management of the dormitory, qualified through the difference to happen anytime soon, it is the answer I need.

  The solution is to build your own Mac + network printer and make it private, protect it against unwanted entry.  This offer you little mobility in the area of the printer, which is much better than nothing.  A sofa can be more conducive to creative thinking as an Office Chair.  The unconventional twist that Johnny introduced the user, the printer that generates the sender-recipient, not the Mac network.  Very smart.

  I refer you to the thread,

  "Deskjet 3070 cannot connect to the ad - hoc network (Mac)"

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/printer-networking-and-wireless/DeskJet-3070A-cant-connect-to-ad-hoc-network/m-p/1446819#M38598

  Then the only question is to know how to connect your Mac on the Deskjet 3070 printer via the generic (as he calls it, "ad hoc") network created by the Deskjet printer.  The Mac has abundant features for this purpose.

  Thanks for the categorical assertion, however.  No sense to break down the walls looking for a nonexistent hidden tunnel...!

• DeskJet 1512: Deskjet 1512 print does not correctly chosen size

  When I choose to print an A4 photo size the last 1/2 inch is missing from the picture? Lenovo windows 10 laptop running

  Hello

  The Deskjet 1512 does not support printing without such margins listed in the paper handling section:

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/products/printers/product-detail.html?OID=5285093#! tab = specifications

  Minimum bottom margin is 0.57 inch, the material must not exceed these margins that you will find listed in "specifications of paper output > section of the print margins:"

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/product/HP-DeskJet-1510-all-in-one-printer-series/5157551/model/5385180/document/c03775352/

  You will need to resize the print job to supply the printable area, to get a game of margins even the top and bottom of the margins like 0.57 inches.

  Kind regards
