• 5520 HP does not print with Mac 10.7.5

  Hello

  I have a wrong setting to the top of my 5520 new after my 5510 went kaput!

  I downloaded the drivers and have reset both the printers on the MAC and printer.

  I removed and redownloaded few times.

  When I try to add the printer, the MAC doesn't seem to see my son in the other room printer and not mine!

  Initially, I was able to print when first purchased last month but not with airprint and turn all the time the printer. I was trying to solve this particular problem, and now I can't print anything except gibberish.

  Now, all the printer will print (when it is printed) is strings and strings of computer-speak. HELP... Please! I use 5 HomeHub BT as a router...

  Hello TraiJay,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  For starters, it sounds as though that there could be a small mixture upwards in the Mac software of the printer. So a rule I always followed is to ensure that all software are completely removed, and the computer cleaned the printer software.

  The first step will be to uninstall the printer software. I've included the document "uninstalling the printer software. If you still see the Photosmart 5510 still on the list, please ensure that it is also well uninstalled.

  Once the uninstall is complete, the next step is to check and fix permissions of Mac disc. I've included the document '12.x disk utility: repair disk permissions'. Verify and repair disk permissions has finished. Please completely off the Mac for a minute and the Mac is restarted.

  The next step is to install the software. I've included the link to "HP Photosmart full feature software and drivers - Mac OS X 10.6, OS X 10.7, OS X 10.8. As soon as the software has finished downloading, open the software and follow the instructions on the screen for the installation.

  Please make sure that if you are able to install the software correctly, you click on the Apple icon and search for the software updates.

  The installation software sees your printer? You are able to install the software correctly? When you try to print now, is it always felt strange text?

  Thank you.

• HP Photosmart C4580 does not print with Mac Book 10.5.8

  I tried all the "solutions" made the HP Support.   When I click on the HP Photosmart C 4500 series icon, it says printer is connected but 'lazy '.  Honestly, I disconnected and reconnected everything.  I added no and added the printer.

  I tried all your advice and directions to troubleshooting in the manual.

  Finally, I tried pressing the x button and the ok button on the control panel.   He printed things on my queue.

  Can't imagine why it worked, but it did.  Yay!

  I want to thank you for taking the time to help me.   Katie

• Why my printer does not print with Windows 8?

  Why my printer does not print with Windows 8?

  Did you just upgraded or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can't get your printer to work?  If so, this can help you.  Many people have questions about the installation of their printer on a new OS.  This will help you answer these questions and make sure you get everything installed.

  Before you start

  Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8, you should check to make sure that the printer is compatible with the new OS.  The link below will give you a list of printers that will work in Windows 8.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03168175

  If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 formed another version of Windows, make sure all software uninstall complete of your printer.  It should still print, but to use all the features, you will need to reinstall the software, if available.

  Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer.

  1. USB.  You must ensure that you have a USB cable which does not exceed 6 feet (about 2 m).  Be sure to connect the printer directly to the computer.  Do not use a USB hub.
  
  
  2. Ethernet cable.  Make sure you have the network configuration, you have a free cable port on the router, and you have an available Ethernet cable.
  
  
  3. Wireless.  You must ensure that you have the configuration of the wireless network, and you have the password of the wireless network.

  1. installation Via USB

  Installation via USB in Windows 8 became much simpler for users of HP printer.  In other versions of the Windows operating system, you need to launch the installation and wait that it asks for the USB connection.  If you do not, you will need to uninstall the printer from the devices and printers folder and then launch the installation.  In Windows 8, which won't be a problem.  If you plug the USB cable from the printer and then install the printer software, work remains.  Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via the USB port click on the link below.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03521864

  2 installation Via an Ethernet network connection

  For an Ethernet connected printer, the installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It's really as simple as that.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  3 installation Via a wireless network connection.

  For a wireless printer, network installation is disconcerting.  All you have to do is to connect the printer to the network.  Once you have done so, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you.  Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if available.  It is roughly the same as just Wireless Ethernet installation.

  http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/support-drivers.html

  Alternative installation methods

  With Windows 8, the drivers of many printers are installed with the operating system.  These are called pilots InOS, since they come built-in to the operating system.  If you have one of these printers, you should have to do simply connect it to the computer via USB, or connect to the network via Ethernet or wireless.  Once you have that makes Windows will take care of the rest.  There are other methods of installation of your printer if normal methods don't work for some reason any.  You can install the printer is using the printer, or through Windows Updates Setup Wizard.

  Set printer wizard:

  Windows Update:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03460648

  Note: The drivers of Laserjet for the Asia-Pacific and the Japan will come only at a later date.  See below the link support site for the availability of the driver.  I will update this post once they become available.

• Apps print does not print with eStation C510a. Draws thin line at the top of the page.

  My C510a eStation printer does not print using printing applications.  Only, it prints a thin line at the top of page.  Everything works fine until I feel.

  All other functions seem to work.  It prints computer via WiFi.  It prints when I send an email to it.  It copies via the Zeen.  It does not print using printing applications.

  Does anyone else have this problem?  What is the solution?

  2010-12-23 15:00.  I just got got off the phone with a HP engineer.  She said that the station is still in TESTING phase and to call to report problems, allowing them to improve the product.  (I thought that the product would have been fully tested before being released to the public!)

  She had me reset the zineb display by pressing the volume keys during power on.  This erases everything that had been done on the Zeen by me and gave rise to no HOME screens, which will need to be implemented by me.  The only application at the bottom of the blank home page was Yahoo!.  The app of the printer was still missing.  I had to move the tray app home page.  Now, I have to spend hours, once again, setting up the Zeen.

  After the reset, the printer apps seem to work now.  The Zeen will copy by using the application of the printer.  My computer seems to still be able to print and scan to/from the station.

  The printer station eStation C510a and zineb display are very exciting.  However, they are not for someone do not want to spend the time necessary so that it can work properly.  If you have a cell phone, be prepared to use a lot of minutes while on the support.

  The HP engineer said that soon will be a new version of Android on the Zeen enabling it to be faster.

  Note: I've updated the original post with new information.

• HP photosmart 8150 does not print with Vista

  Why my printer does not print how can I solve this problem

  The pilots say they work properly even though they may be bad drivers (not always, but often enough). You can get in trouble with your device drivers.  Go to Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers, firmware and/or software (and you should get those updates for the printer and all you have time to do - they can help way beyond simply solve this problem), let the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows:http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.  The versions supplied with the printer are more likey obsolete and you want the most recent available.

  Do you get errors on the screen or on the printer (and what do say EXACTLY)?

  Pay attention to the installation instructions.  Not only certain tasks requuired, but sometimes they should be done in a certain order or the process will not work.  Check again the indications (or contact the HP support) and follow them to the letter.  Frankly, I would contact HP who willl be faster and much more liekly to work in the end. http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support_task.html.  Why fuss about it when they will be more than happy to help you?

  I hope this helps.  Really shouldn't be much more difficult than with the previous printers unless you've never used Vista before - that can make a big difference.  Installation and configuration of sharing are very different.  Also, there may be some settings of the printer itself that need to be addressed to make things work correctly - but I do not (but HP will be).

  Good luck!

• my hp 6500 has does not print with my laptop running Windows 8.1 (big difference)

  I try to print from a computer running Windows 8.1 to my HP 6500 has everything in a printer. It will not print anything except 6 x 4 photos. If you want to print a document on A4, I get the message of size mismatch. I tried on a second PC (with Windows 8.1) and it still does not print.

  Sorry I don't have a service manual for the 6500 has.

  Try to use compressed air to clean the inside of the 6500 a. (just in case it's dust)

• HP LaserJet 6 p printer range does not print with windows 7

  I installed the drivers that came with Windows 7, but the printer does not print. I run the diagnostic tool; It removes the work and says it's fixed.  It is not the case. HP says they cannot help.   I love my 6 p and would rather not have to buy a new printer.  Can anyone help? Thank you.

  Windows 7 does NOT support printer HP laserjet 6 p.  It is a HP note:models 6L and 6 p in the LaserJet 6 series are NOT supported in Windows 7  I got and downloaded the driver on the Internet somewhere by typing: driver of HP laserjet 6 p.  You can check the box to add printers over the Internet.  I'm not looking for the process.  Try and I hope it helps.  In the meantime, I'm troubleshooting why my 6 p prints (parallel to 6 p and USB for laptop HP cable).  Don't forget the impression of 'biodirectional' is not checked in Ports (USB001, 2 or 3) place (lower-left) in Device Manager. Right-click on your printer, you will see 'printer properties '.  I say that linear, but you will get it.  Let us know.

• Printer does not print with new cartridges

  After I changed the cartfidges the printer does not print anything. No black and no color. Out of curiosity, I noticed that the old cartridges were still half full because I compared the weight. So I put the inside once again but not print. Only a few pale almost unreadable characters. This happens usually when the printer is dirty then I ask for a cleaning. But I'm still without printer.

  My printer is a HP 980CXi and I have now, I was very satisfied. I've heard that some printers are programmed to be used a period determined, while they are blocked. If this is the case. Please be so kind to tell me does not search for a solution. Too bad I bought a pair of cartredges for nothing.

  Hello Yaio,

  Welcome to the HP Forums.

  I see that you experience a problem when you attempt to print in black ink and color.

  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.

  I also suggest that you take a free cloth and some bottled water and clean the contacts on the ink cartridges as well as contacts in the printer and then dry them off, reinstall the ink and try a test print.

  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.

  Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

  You could try the following:

  Assuming that you have installed the printer on your daughter's cell phone software previously, then start here, else scroll down...

  • Everything, including the router restarts

  > If it does not (reboot the router), you can try this:

  • Remove Panel printing software > set view icon > programs and features > click with the right button on the program > Uninstall
  • Shut down the computer
  • Stop / power off the printer
  • Turn off the router
  • Wait 2 minutes...
  • Turn on the router and wait for it to start completely - say, 1 minute
  • Start the computer and connect
  • Turn on the printer

  If you have never installed the software of the printer on your daughter's cell phone, then you might start here:

  • Install the full functionality for the printer software by following the instructions

  Install the full software features - like 5530

• Scan does not work with Mac Mini Maverick

  Just got a new Mac Mini Maverick.  While the printer (HP Officejet 4500 Wireless) works very well, the scanner does not at all. The installer downloaded the appropriate driver, but the scanner is disabled. Does anyone else have this problem?

  Hello Chata3,

  Welcome to the forums,

  I understand that you are unable to scan from your wireless Officejet 4500 to your Mac with the Mavericks.

  There is no comprehensive driver features available for this model of printer with the Mavericks, which is probably the reason why you are facing this problem. There are, however, bypass the options for you to scan.

  See this link and see under 'How to scan with the Apple Software Update driver'? :
