HP LaserJet 4 Plus with PostScrip SIMM = LaserJet 4 M Plus?

I have a printer HP LaserJet 4 Plus old wonderfully connected to a home network Windows XP via a JetDirect card and a Linksys router.  I'm now hoping to enter the 21st century with the purchase of an iMac.  Not wanting to leave a friend behind (the printer, not the router), I installed additional memory and a map SIMM PostScript printer.  So now, have I not a HP LaserJet 4M more and I will have any problems of connection/print worldwide Apple iMac Mountain Lion, using an AirPort base station?

Thank you

Old guy from Windows

No, I won't leave my LaserJet 4 Plus.  OS X Mountain Lion to install the printer as a "Generic PostScript Printer" allowed the addition of a map SIMM PostScript (eBay, $10).  Additional memory was not necessary, but I did add 32 MB to the printer (eBay, $30).  And, after 30 + years (dark) in the BACK/Windows/PC world, I must say that my iMac is a joy to own and use.  I hope I never see another 'window '.

    Thank you

    Motherboards for the 350 c and 330 are the same.  The only difference is the chip ROM.  The part number for the ROM chip for the 330's C4699-60104.  Hard to find part.  If you can find a substitute your current ROM with this simm will change the model of the 330 which I believe is black only.

  • LaserJet 4 Plus: can I use my DSL modem/router for my LaserJet 4 Plus a network printer home?

    My LaserJet 4 Plus was connected to my old XP computer with a parallel port cable (?).  Can I make this printer to my Windows 7 and Windows 10 computers using ethernet cable port to connect it to my ADSL modem/router?  I tried to make the connection, but other computers can't 'see '.  This printer has been used as a network printer in an office environment.  I see an IP address when I print a test page, but I am unable to ping this address of my Windows 10 computer when I have the printer connected to my modem/router.  What should I do to make this visible printer?  Is there a way to check the IP address on the test page is still topical to the printer?  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Thank you very much to clear up the mystery as to why the reset cold was not change the IP address and why I was not able to see the MIO menu!  Thank you for the suggestion to replace the card with a card HP from ebay.

  • LaserJet 4 Plus: installation of LJ 4 + printer in Windows 10

    I have a PC with Windows 10.  It was working fine with my LJ 4 + printer using a TCP/IP connection. I had problems with the PC, so back up my files and reinstalled a fresh copy of win 10.  Now I can not find a driver for the LJ 4 + on the web that works with Win 10.

    There is a thread that deals with this problem but using a parallel port connection, and I want to use the TCP/IP route.  I know that the number of TCP/IP.

    My question is in two parts:

    (1) does anyone know where I can get a driver HP LJ 4 + without having to download crappy software to sites that try to rope me?  This driver - if available - work probably even if originally designed for Win 7 or an earlier version, because it worked after that I initially put updated my PC to win 10.

    (2) If this is not feasible, then are there any HP LJ printers available on the HP list on 10 win that work with the same codes as the LJ 4 +?  for example: HP LaserJet 4350 or 6 L or something like that?

    This LJ 4 + maybe 20 or 25 years, but it is a beautiful beast of burden and should not replace.

    My Professional 10 64-bit Windows system has a driver for printers LaserJet 4 and LaserJet 4 Plus :

    You may need to click the Windows Update button in the Add Printer dialog, then wait (possibly several minutes) while additional drivers are downloaded, until the list is filled again.

    Of course, I have no idea if this driver is not working properly, or if it will offer all the features that you can.

  • Can send but cannot receive faxes on HP Laserjet on Mac 10.9 Mavericks with answering machine TAM

    I have an iMac running OS 10.9 (Mavericks) and a machine to print/scan/fax all-in-one HP Laserjet Professional M1212nf MFP connected by USB.  I have a phone with answering machine connected system.

    I can send faxes of the HP and the Mac (using the pdf fax).  What I can't do, is to receive faxes on the HP (I know that the Mac cannot receive faxes with this machine).  I tried all the combinations of parameters without result even unplug the phone/answering machine without result.

    Any ideas what I need the settings?

    Hi ChuckStewart,

    It is definitely a head scratcher! I found some additional information from the following link, you use a product of Fax HP with a telephone answering machine (TAM).

    I found this interesting presentation text, when recording the outgoing message on your TAM, share of voice must be at least 10 seconds of time, but not more than 20 seconds . Save 5-7 seconds of silence at the end of the vocal part of your outgoing message (message coming out would be your voice message length plus the extra 5 to 7 seconds of recorded silence ).

     

    I wonder if you might find something useful in the document.

    Please let me know. Thank you.

  • Windows 7 and HP LaserJet 4 Plus

    I have a new laptop with windows 7 and a printer LaserJet 4 Plus old (but very reliable).  I managed to download drivers from the HP site, but it still won't print.  I get no error messages, just nothing happens when I try to print a document or test page.  I have to change something in my settings?

    There are three areas major problems installing a Laserjet 4 in Windows 7:

    • Ports.  The Laserjet 4 and its derivatives have a standard parallel port, but most of the Windows 7 machines no longer have a parallel port.  The most common solution is a USB-parallel conversion cable.  This can be problematic, because many of the converter cables do not support Windows 7.  [Edit - here marked positions have the models of cable converter in the forum users has reported as working in Windows 7]. In addition, most cables have no documentation (or even a brand name) makes it difficult to solve problems.  The converter can provide a parallel port simulated as LPT3: or it may be a port USB001.:  Another option with the Laserjet 4 would be adding a JetDirect card that would provide a network for the Laserjet 4 port.  This will require the Laserjet connected to a router and would provide access network on multiple computers if you wish.  A typical JetDirect card for the Laserjet 4 is shown here.
    • Drivers.  The Laserjet 4 drivers (and 4 M and other derivatives) are sent through Windows Update.  If Windows Update is enabled (as described in the method of step 2 here in the section "configure Windows Update for"...) you may be able to simply plug in the USB cable and install the driver correctly.  If not do the following: click on start Orb, devices and printers, add printer, and then select the appropriate port.  When the list of printers, click Windows Update.  It will take several minutes for the list to repopulate, when it is finished the Laserjet 4 series printer won't be available under HP (Hewlett-Packard).
  • LasrerJet P2015n: Low error when printing with ePrint to a LaserJet P2015n on iOS supplies

    "Hi, I'm using the HP LaserJet P2015n, which works very well, however try to print using ePrint on iOS 8.3 seems to cause problems. If the application finds the printer on the network, and try to print, it invites a mistake "we have detected you are low on supplies error" obviously is not the case, because it is more than 50% of the full and prints very well using the desktop computer. The printer error LED keeps blinking and won't not even respond to a request for printing office. It must be restarted to work again.

    Tried all kinds of reboot and reset. I also tried to find a solution with no luck, there is no updated firmware for this printer can be found as well.

    Any help will be very appreciated!

    @hussain316

    Thank you, based on the information you provided... the p2015 is not taken care of with ePrint. That's why whenever you send a print job for printing, the printer responds with error messages and you have to pick up then power cycle the computers can be printed successfully on it.

    If you want to start mobile printing, then you will need to upgrade to a new printer with function ePrint. Depending on your price range, the new m277 is a nice little printer and has this ability.

  • Color Laserjet PRO MFPF 377dw: problem with Color Laserjet PRO MFPF 377dw and HP network scanner

    After removing the package of printer drivers HP, all attempts of resettlement via WLAN regularly fail before the end, which indicates that the device is not found. I physically connect the printer to the computer by USB cable to install the software successfully. When I go to WLAN Wireless thereafter, the printer works perfectly within the network.

    It seems that your printer can be supported, although I have to admit that I'm not 100% familiar w/LaserJet models.  You must confirm that your is part of the printers HP Color LaserJet Pro M1536 series, it seems that it is.

    If it is supported, you can follow these steps to activate ePrint in the post below:

  • MFP M277 dw: Color LaserJet MFP M277dw Pro issues with iMac

    I have a 2015 21.5 "iMac running El Capitan (10.11.3) and a HP Color LaserJet Pro M277dw MFP that falls in offline mode when it is idle for a while.

    Once the Mac has been sleeping, I can no longer copy, scan or fax without having to restart the printer and the iMac. And it is intermittent. This does not happen everytime the iMac goes to sleep, but no doubt it happens once or twice a week.

    The printer is connected both wireless (so that I can print from my iPad in other parts of the House.) and directly to the iMac via USB.

    I have updated all the HP software related and have applied the last update of the HP firmware for the printer as well. I also ran through all the game instructions that were provided with the printer.

    Other troubleshooting tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi @RBurgett,

    Thanks for joining the Forums of HP Support for a solution to your fall issue offline printer.

    I understand you have a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw connected to a wireless network for your iPad and connected with a USB to your iMac running Mac OS X 10.11.3 El Capitan, but the drops of the printer is offline after has been idle for a while and becomes also insensitive after mode "Eve". I would like to help with that.

    If you see the message on the printer offline on the iMac, it would be because the iMac think he's using the wireless printer, when it should be using the USB connection.

    You should be able to solve that by unplugging the USB cable. Once the USB cable is removed, reset the Mac printing system. If you don't know how to reset the Mac printing system, here is a document of support that can help - reset the printing system.

    After printing Mac system has been reset, you should be able to reconnect the USB cable and add it to printers and Scanners.

    As far as being not able to copy, scan or fax without having to restart the printer and the iMac that could be solved by resetting the printing system and making sure the USB printer is listed in the printers and Scanner. When the printer seem to be insensitive, the first step is to perform a reset of the power on the printer.

    Please let me know if that solves the problem, or if you need assistance.

  • HP 1020 laser jet: the hp laserjet 1020 printer is compatible with windows 10

    I deleted the printer & he reloaded several times, updated computer and always gives me error code "printer could not print Microsoft Word (document name).

    Bradhartsoe

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    To answer your question, YES, it is compatible with Win10 - but you must use the HP software and drivers, not the one that is provided by Microsoft.

    Here are the drivers and the software for your printer page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-LaserJet-1020-Printer-series/439423/model/3329726

    You must download and install full feature software and drivers for the printer.

    Remove all the drivers and software that Microsoft install for the printer.

    Then unplug the printer and install the software.

    Do reconnect the printer until the installation program invited to do so.

    Once the installation is complete, restart.

    You should then be able to use your printer in Win10.

    Good luck
