Impression of failure of communication with Mac Mountain Lion and Photosmart c7280

I have flowed through many messages about the printing and problems of Mountain Lion (10.8.3) faults and cannot get the answer I need.  I use this printer (HP Photosmart c7280) very well with the Lion of mountain for several months now and just recently have had problems printing.  I can scan very well, but printing is another story.  I deleted the printer, re-installed, restarted, unplugged, replugged, reset the printing system, deleted and reinstalled the drivers, ad nauseam!  I don't know what the problem is.  I am connected with a USB cable.  I send a print job, it can get 30 to 67% of the way sent and start printing and then I get this error: failure to communicate: the computer is therefore more able to communicate with your printer. Turn off the printer, check your printer connections and look for errors in the printer and turn on the printer.
Check the printer to find errors.

I just tried to install the new driver and new hpprinterdrivers2.14 and they used to install.

Today, I can't get more than one or two lines to print before it stops.  I don't know what else to try.  Help, please!

Hello

First make sure that the material can print without problems by printing a test page:

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01448018

In addition, have you tried plugging the USB stick on another free port of your Mac?

Be sure to use a USB 2.0 standard, not longer than 2 m long cable.

Make sure it is directly connecting to your Mac and not through a USB extention or a hub port on an Apple keyboard, which is not powered.

So I recommend you try a different USB cable, then check any change.

  • I updated my operating system Mac Mountain Lion and my CS2 no longer works. Is there a solution?

    I updated my operating system Mac Mountain Lion and my CS2 no longer works. Is there a solution? CS2 works great for my purpose.

    Unfortunately it is the control of Adobe on the outside. Recent versions of Mac OS x simply do not contain the necessary components to the system more. Short of signing up for creative cloud / purchase CS6, there is no way to fix it, though, if "CS2 works just fine" for you, PS Elements could suffice just as well these days, given that all of the features is similar to your old version of PS...

    You need get the software from the HP site as the original version of the disc manufactured prior to Mountain Lion and so not compatible.

    You can find the software for your operating system below:

  • HP officejet 6500 a printer works with Mac Mountain Lion but scanner is not

    had a 10.6.8 imac and I used and scan with hp printer HP officejet 6500 a.

    Just got a mac mini 10.8.4 and the wizard migration used to move all my programs and information.

    The printer works just fine but the scanner does not work.  When I try to start the scan by pressing the printer screen it says computer no. detected as part of the message.

    If I click on the scanner icon on my dock it says

    HP Scanner 3 cannot be opened locks of Aproblem.  Check with the developer to make sure that HP Scan 3 works with this version of Mac OS X.  You may need to reinstall the application.  Don't forget to install the updates that are available for the application and OS X.  There is also a report I can click on and sent to apple.

    I got a free mini mac technical support - they helped me with the migration, and then a few days later, I called for what they help me with things that were not working as before.  All resolved but this.  They said contact that HP may be there is something that I can download to make the scanner work?  Hope I don't have to buy a new printer.

    Thanks for the tips .

    Hello

    Yes, go ahead and put this folder in the trash, I would also suggest restarting the Mac and repair disk permissions in order to avoid any possible permissions errors that can impact on the installation:

    Hello
    Follow the steps below to repair disk permissions:

    1. open the Applications folder.
    2. go to the Utilities folder.
    3. double-click on disk utility.
    4 Select the hard disk that contains the boot volume.
    5. go to the first aid tab and select Repair disk permissions.
    Note: This process may take several minutes depending on the Mac and the amount of the permissions that need to be repaired. The progress log shows when the process was completed.

    Once you have finished my steps above to reinstall the software.

  • Director of HP with the Mountain Lion

    I recently bought a new MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion, and although I have no problem using my MFP HP LaserJet Pro M1212n impression, I can not install HP Director, so can not scan, etc.. When I try to use the software disc to install and install the Director, he keeps returning an error message: I need the administrator privileges (which I have). Any advice to get the software installed on the Mountain Lion?

    Thank you.

    Hi Don,

    Great to hear that the issue of AirPrint been resolved now!

    By your description, it seems more likely that only the printer has been installed and not the HP software.

    Try the following steps to install the Lion software and check if this may work:

    1. Go to System Preferences< print="" &="" scan="" and="" remove="" the="" current="">
    2. Go to System Preferences > security & privacy. Modify the security settings to allow to install all software (you may need to click the lock icon to allow changes).
    3. Download and install the software 10.7 below:

    4. After completing the installation I highly recommend allows you to change the default security settings...

    Now try to use the HP scanning application in the folder of Laserjet Application\HP.
    Although it was not tested and not for the OS, so it may work or may not be not and cannot be stable as expected, I personally have it stable software on ML with very satisfactory results...

  • scan mf1522nf to show Mac mountain lion

    Hello!

    I just got a Mac and it works on OS Mountain Lion.

    My MF1522nf shows any ideas on how I can get it to appear in my printer/scanner options, printer and fax but not the scanner?

    Can I use HP Director if I absolutely have to but he's so picky and I'd like to use an excerpt...

    Thank you

    Hello

    The only specific model supported by Director software and can be used via the preview or the Image Capture.

    In fact the request of the Director is not compatible with Mountain Lion and currently only print and fax features provided for the operating system.

    As you find listed here, scan support charge later this year:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c03411615#A4

    Try to use software Director for Lion is the only possible option right now.

  • After upgrading to MAC Mountain Lion, the drivers for my HP C4680 were removed (accidentlly)

    After upgrading to MAC Mountain Lion, the drivers for my HP C4680 have been deleted (accidentally). I downloaded the drivers from HP, but my Macbook it not install because the drivers are not available on Mac Store. How can I get the printer installed?

    Hello

    First of all, make sure you restart your Mac, and then try to add the printer again.

    If it persists, ensure that the USB port directly connected to your Mac and not via a USB hub or extention.

    Ensure that the USB is not longer than 2 m and check to see if that can help you.

    Also, if you have an iMac, be sure to plug the USB in the port at the back of the Mac and not in the Apple keyboard, which is not powered.

    Also, try to reset the printing system, then try to add the printer and check any changes:

    * Be aware that reset the printer system will eliminate any existing queue and reset all custom settings driver.

    Click on the Apple menu and then click on System Preferences.
    Select Print & Scan.
    Right click (or Ctrl + click) your product with the Printers list in the left panel and then click on reset printing system.
    Click OK to confirm the reset.
    Type your user name and password.
    Click OK. The printing system resets.

    Now, click on the Plus sign and try to re-adding the printer.

    If none of the steps above does not lead to any progress, go to the library and place the HP folder to the trash.

    Enter PPD\Contents\Resources, search for C4600 and move the files to the trash, then try to add the printer again.

    Hope that helps,

  • I have CS5 [was: Creative Suite, Creative Suite 2] on MAC running MAC Mountain Lion. They will work on Yosemite or Elcapitan?

    I have CS5 [edit: Creative Suite, Creative Suite 2] on MAC running MAC Mountain Lion. They will work on Yosemite or Elcapitan?

    My iMac and Powerbook pro both run processors intel based. The operating system is 10.8.5 Mountain Lion.

    Do you mean you're under CS2 on OS X 10.8.5?

    It is not possible in a native Mac environment (unless you use the Windows of Parallels or Bootcamp on Mac version)...

    CS2 is a PowerPC application designed to run on Mac computers with PowerPC processors. When Apple has switched to processors Intel, Apple briefly provided a translator called "Rosetta" to run the applications on Macs PowerPC to Intel processors.

    Rosetta was not understood or supported since OS X 10.7 "Lion". If (including CS2) PowerPC applications does not work on OS X 10.7 go.

  • Updated to mountain lion and now, I have continual errors in PS!

    I have the latest version of photoshop CC. As the update to 10.8.5 Lion PS CC mountain lion does not work correctly. Many of the tools I give 'cannot use the tool due to the program error. " It's useless! I installed the latest version of photoshop CC. It worked fine before. I can't use the pipette, but the clone tool is very good. The painting tools are very good. Several other tools give this error. I do not see why some work and some do not.

    I have worked very well in Leo, so there is no reason it shouldn't work in mountain lion. It's so frustrating because it means I can't use the software I paid for. I updated via the adobe Update Manager as the CC Office system does not work

    What is causing this error message?

    Everything is identical to what existed before imac 2011 - late with loads of memory and a wacom bamboo with an ancient Tablet graphire Tablet driver.

  • Printer HP Photosmart more B210 loses the wireless connection. with MAC 10.6 and Linksys router.

    From time to time my printer HP PSt + B210 indicates not 'online' in the window of the printer utility and do not print.

    I have spend hours to review what I did in th past and become confused.

    Should I start with the HP utility and make sure that my printer is listed only once in the queue (as is sometimes show 2 forms - for the same printer) OR should I stop MAC PB > router > Modem and then restart in correct, reverse order?

    Given that I need to choose "IP automatically...". ", I used Safari and put the 192.168.1.1 in the address bar and follow these steps, as already suggested.  What would be the clear measures to reconnect my HP printer status online? Thank you very much!!

    We will set an IP address of the printer:

    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). You can find the beach DHCP from the router using its internal settings page or in its manual. Use the CD that came with your router or type the IP address of the router (ends para.1) in a browser.
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the bridge and the first DNS. Let the second white.
    -Click 'apply '.

    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that, you will have to redo 'Add printer' using the new IP address.
