HP Deskjet 3055A - queries

Hey guys,.

I'm about to buy the HP Deskjet 3055 A, do you think it's worth?

I wanted to know was, can I use this printer with just the black ink because that's what I usually use. If there was no cartridge present color ink I'll be able to print in black & white? If this is not the case, what printer is able to do this?

PS - It will be compatible with windows 8, right?

Thank you.

All HP inkjet printers require black ink and color of the function. This is to avoid damage by not having not ink colors available.

There are installation models laserjet to print in black ink only and have only a black toner box. I hope this helps.

  • DeskJet 3055 has J11n: connect Deskjet 3055a J11n wireless network without PIN or WPSA and with Mac Mavericks

    Hello

    I run a Mac with Yosemite and would like to add the printer Hp Deskjet 3055a J11n for the wireless network.

    My router doesn't have any a WPSA button and not a PIN code.

    Before, when I used Mac OS 10.6, I could run the features of the CD that came with the Hp Printer.

    When I try to open the Setup from the CD on Yosemite, he says 'cannot open only on Mac 10.6.

    How can I connect the printer to my wireless network?

    Thank you!!

    Marjolein

    Hi @MarjoleinPeters,

    A driver full features for Yosemite is not available for your printer, or from the CD supplied with your printer from the HP website.  This document applies to the HP printers supported in versions of Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion), 10.6 (Snow Leopard), 10.9 (Mavericks), and 10.10 (Yosemite) who have only drivers available via Apple Software Update.

    I can help you put the printer on your network wireless software. I use this method for iPads, iPhones and other devices that have no software.

    1. Restore default network settings on the printer by pressing the wireless button, by going to settings and then restore the default settings. The wireless button should then start flashing, this means that it is now in auto wireless mode.
    2. To connect to the network that broadcasts the printer. It is usually HP-setup-3050 has and then a part of the MAC address. Always wireless light will blink on the printer at this stage, which is normal since it is not a real ad-hoc connection.
    3. Load up the built-in webserver (EWS) in the browser of your mobile device. For automatic wireless default IP address is 192.168.223.1.
    4. Go to the tab network along the top of the SAP.
    5. Click Setup Wizard along on the left hand side to begin to set up the printer wireless.

    You have now completed the configuration of wireless network, follow the next 3 steps to start printing.

    1. Blue wireless light will be solid, put the Mac on your network.
    2. Add the printer in system preferences.
    3. Print

    Please let me know if that solves the problem. I look forward to hear from you.

  • HP deskjet 3055a: can't choose my network on the printer hp deskjet 3055a

    I changed my router with an Apple Aiport Extreme 2nd generation but now I can't connect my printer to the wireless network: the integrated printer display does not provide a menu in which I could choose any wifi network. I have already connected this printer to the network even a couple of years ago, but at that time there I probably used the software from the cd provided, which is no longer compatible with OS X 10.10 Yosemite. I can not even find an update to this software on Hp.com, since he says that it is just enough to use the Apple driver for the use of the printer.

    How can I configure wifi now?

  • DeskJet 3055A: not Black not printing

    Hello

    I am getting very frustrated and I hope someone can help.  Quite simply, my black ink stopped printing but it still showed as being almost full of ink.  Thought it might be a faulty cartridge so I bought another HP, so I know I have the correct ink, but it did the same thing.  I tried all tests, checks, cleanup options, I can find and it still does not print.  My printer is not that old, and I find it really frustrating not being able to use it now.

    Can someone please help me solve this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    First the first place you need to talk to is the it Department at your Uni. And secondly I would normally not connect my printer to this environment, I'm not asking people to use my printer. You can try to connect directly or use USB.

  • DeskJet 3055 has J611n and I touch

    I bought an HP Deskjet 3055a J611n printer to my i pad. A logo in airprint is indicated on the box of the printer.

    But I can do this job and I doubtbif it is indeed an Air printer? Can someone help me?

    Oh if the printer is not connected to your network it probably won't work...

    You must install the printer on your computer to connect the printer to your wireless network without first that your router does not support WPS connection...

    Only if the problem persists once the iPad and conneted to the network printer, and then try the steps listed in my previous post...

  • Maverick OS 10.9 HP3050A J611 series

    Hello!

    I did get my printer wirelessly connect once I upgraded to Maverick. I tried without success to the following:

    1. Temporary connect the printer to your MAC using a USB key.
    2. Go to Applications > Hewlett-Packard > utility device and launch of the HP installation wizard.
    3. Select the device from the list and follow the instructions on the screen to configure the wireless connection.
    4. Once prompted, unplug the USB cable

    I also tried the instructions on this page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03967522

    It does not either because the printer will not connect to the radio. At this point I don't know what else to do. All of the Apple software are updated.

    The only way that the printer works is if it is connected directly via the USB port.

    Everyone knows this?

    Thank you!

    Finally, this post solved my problem. Thank you!
