• HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m stopped working with a Macbook, still works with others

  We had this printer wireless printing of 2 Macbooks a running OS X 10.8.2 and another OS x 10.6.8 without any problem for some time when it suddenly stopped working with the old Macbook running 10.6.8.

  When we tried to print anything in that nothing happened, when we open the print queue, there's an exclamation point to the left of the print job and to say an error message something about the levels ink (ink levels were very well as it print to the other Macbook without problem).  We tried the buttons pausing and resuming.  I can't provide exact errors that we had because now that we have tried to reinstall the drivers we get a new series of errors.

  We redownloaded the drivers for OS X 10.6 on HP website and tried to go through the HP setup assistant.  When we arrive at step 'Select printer' and he takes us into the preferences system to add a printer - our printer shows up, but when selected, we get the following error message: some of the software of the printer is missing.  You may not be able to print to "HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m" Please reinstall the printer. software - and of course, we are not able to print.

  We uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers several times without any effect.  The only way that we were able to print off the computer is if printer sharing is enabled on the other Macbook (with OS X 10.8.2).)  Then, it presents itself as a separate printer and can be used by the old Macbook only if the other is on.  This isn't how it was put in place when we had the two work before.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  What router are you using?  I guess that the 10.8 machine can print correctly?

  Let's start with that on the 10.6 machine: download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907

  Restart your Mac.

  Reset the printing system:

  -Go to System Preferences > print & Scan
  -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
  WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
  -Select the sign more to add a printer. Select the default tab on the top of the window. Search for the printer, select it, and then beside the dropdown 'Use', select the model of the printer (not AirPrint). Wait for the 'Add' button becomes available. Until it clicks.

• Photosmart Plus B209a-m installation CD is not compatible with Windows 8.1?

  For the ninth time now, after that some updates from HP that I'm no longer able to use the scan function on the HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m all-in-One printer I've owned for more than two years now.  I tried all the things suggested the HP Support Assistant, including the feature troubleshooting and restarting.  So I took the next step in uninstalling the printer and put it back, eventually.  Or try to reinstall, it is.

  I had a Windows 7 HP laptop when I bought the printer, but now I have a newer HP laptop who initially missed out on Windows 8, but has recently been upgraded (?) to 8.1 Windows.  I was able to install the printer, after that I'm the new laptop under Windows 8.  But when I put the CD is no longer allows me now to proceed with the installation.  Of initial pop-up box tells me to click on 'Install', but the only available choice is "quit".  In addition, it has a red square with a white 'X' in the upper right corner of the popup box.  I have never seen that in any of the previous eight times I had to re - install the printer.

  So now what should I do?

  Terry Sullivan

  The original CD was manufactured before Windows 8 or 8.1 have been released, I would suggest downloading the recommended full 8.1 HP here windows driver.

  Hey there @LB84105

  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums.

  I want to help! I see that your computer keeps trying to install the printer software.  I recommend you to go to "Add or remove programs" and making sure that all the printer software are uninstalled. When it is finished, run the "Disk Cleanup" and mark all the boxes to remove the folder temp and other junk. Restart the computer and let me know if the message stops.

  Thank you!

  Hit the "accept as Solution" if we reached a solution and the "thumbs up" to say thank you for my help.

• HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m wireless disconnects once the system is shut down

  I use the HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m on a Dell XPS 16 with Windows 7 64 bit. I have set the printer to connect to the wireless router Belkin isn't on the network. I have setup the printer several times and had it work wireless several times. Once the PC is shut down, the printer goes offline. I have to restart the installation time and time again to bring wireless online. I added the MAC address of the Belkin router and I have the camera had confidence in my Norton Firewall. I keep seeing "HP Network Support Automatic (delayed start)" in services, but by changing it seems to make a difference, I still need to run the installation once after the system is shut down. I see also two printer icons in devices and printers. We're just the Photosmart printer with a generic printer icon; and the second is Photosmart printer, Scanner, copier with a picture of the Photosmart which I believe it should be. I ran the installation at least 10 times and I get a good wireless system work then after that the machine is stopped for the day the printer is offline and do not print. How can I stop the printer goes offline in wireless mode?

  I solved the problem.

  I put the IP address to the MAC address of printers in the router.

  I put the printer to TRUST in the network settings on Norton Security Suite.

  The printer works wirelessly all the time now.

• Why did TMP_00 attached to my name of the printer, Photosmart Plus B209a-m

  I had to reinstall my network from my HP Pavilion DV6 laptop, an HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m and a router D-links.

  Since I did it, the laptop is fine, but I was unable to get the printer works wirelessly.  I spent hours chatting with HP printer location, but they have not yet set.  I was told that I had to uninstall my USB and let him resettle.  I saw on an attempt there is a shift of the IP address to reinstall.

  It seems to me that either uninstall and install does not completely remove/replace all necessary files because I saw things like TMP_00 and Copy_1 attached to the end of my name of the printer also, when I looked "Protected from the network connections for the domain profile", he mentions 3 connections.

  Wireless Connection2

  Wireless network connection

  Connection to the local network

  I need to delete all files after uninstall, so that my printer name is not a TMP_00 or copy2 attached to it when I reinstall?  Is it important that the names are extended or if multipul connections listed there?

  Thank you for your response.  It seems the best answer I got, here or through conversations, HP Solution Center, original install disc, etc.  I saved it in case I have problems in the future.

  My printer seems to work fine now, even wireless scan.  I looked in the start menu and click the HP folder, inside was my printer.  I clicked on that and chose the option to change to wireless USB.  I went into the menu and in the end I pulled out the USB cable and everything seemed to work.  The screens were all as the orig. install screens and he acted as if it was a new printer with options to save my new product HP and the HP etc shop offers.

  After hours I spent on it, the solution was still within my reach.  Not sure I should give congratulations, because I'm not going to try your solution.

  Thanks anyway.  Mark Brorson

  Lightning struck the power line outside our House. We had to replace the modem. Now our HP Photosmart Plus b209a-m shows that it is not connected. Connect us wirelessly. What should I do to get this operational return.

  Go to Applications > Hewlett-Packard > [your printer model] > setting up the printer and software.  Run it to re - connect your printer to your wireless network.  Need you a USB cable temporarily.  Connect it only when the software asks you.

• HP Photosmart Plus 209 a - m does not detect my wireless

  I have a HP Photosmart Plus 209 a - m wireless all-in-one printer and I use Windows 7 for my OS. The printer does not detect my wireless. I checked the setings wireless to the printer. Wireless is on and working, but it fails to detect our SSID.

  I used print and Scan doctor but who could not connect to the printer. I tried the printer on my computer but my computer does not detect it. I tried to download the HP software to reinstall the printer, but I received a message stating that the printer was not connected.

  This printer has worked with wireless network in the past. I suspect a recent change in the disposition of our wireless network might have caused the problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

  Any suggestions?

  So I solved the problem by uninstalling the "upgradeprinter" (that's what my computer was recognizing the HP Photosmart Plus 209 as). Icon in the list of printers for the HP Photosmart wouldn't let me not uninstall this printer at that time where (the button uninstall is not usable). I kept the HP software installed and I kept the printer connected to the computer. The computer uninstalled you 'Upgradeprinter' then restarted. When the computer restarts automatically began to reinstall the HP Photosmart Plus printer correctly. I don't know if he has begun to do this because I tried redownloading the installation software, because the HP software installed always, either because the printer is connected to my computer. I decided to ask it was useless as long as it works. The printer is installed properly, but after you run a scan with print and Scan doctor, I found that it was only installed to run on the USB port. I ran the software Wireless USB. Attempts to do this before the reinstall failed because the software failed to detect an HP printer connected to my computer. This time, it worked. My computer can now print to the printer HP Photosmart Plus wireless. Added to * beep *, then I could uninstall the previously installed printer because the Uninstall button, which wouldn't work not before, now worked.

• My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-one will not print text correctly in black, color print very well.

  My HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One does not print black without be eliminated text or streaks in the text. Will print fine text color.

  Have tried all the "patches" you list and much more. The printer prints fine on my old PC Windows XP and worked fine on my

  new PC using Windows 7 until recently.

  Please don't tell me to... Reinstall, download the new driver, install the new cartridge, clean align the print heads, different paper or go to 'solutions '... Etc... Etc.  I HAVE ALREADY BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT!

  Everything you "patches" end with 'the unit of service... " WHAT IN THE WORLD WHAT THAT MEANS!

  This has been a nice printer for more than 5 years, but is somewhat glitch spoil me when using the BLACK INK?

  Gordon,

  Thanks for the reply, expecting not one, but what you say is all that we need to buy another printer if we did all the "fixes", etc... etc. you know that take a printer to a repair shop will cost more

  then buy a new one.

  It was stupid of saying me to check on the warraty of HP page when I already told you that the unit is 5 years old.

  But don't thank you for the reply... even if it was a joke!

• Photosmart C4480: Copies of brands, does not print, makes a jump to page instead of print.

  WinXPSP3, 2bg RAM: Photosmart C4480 makes copies but does not print.  Print jobs sent to the cause of the printer that a page break without any movement of the ink cartridges, then the print job is deleted from the print queue, as if it was printed.  This printer was working fine for a long time and only recently started doing this.
