LaserJet P1102w: Router reboot printer wireless problem cures - why?

Ive had this printer (P1102w LaserJet) for a year now. Sometimes its been very well, other times as recently happened constantly offline. Its driving me crazy.

I just read online that can help to restart the router and the last two times, my printer went offline, restart the router has healed (power cycling of the printer, by running a utility that stops & starts the spooler - did any of these things).

So my question is - why reboot the router to fix this? Both times I was surfing online with this same router, and I have not noticed any problem with this router. And secondly, is there a setting that I can change into my router so that it will not goof the printer wireless?


HP LaserJet p1102w

OK, I'm about ideas.  I suggest check the firmware, there is a version 20150114 which was released end of March 2015 available here.

It can also help to go through all the steps described in the paper here.

If none of these solves the problem I will ask one of the HP support officers rush in this thread, they may have some additional suggestions.

  • HP Laserjet CM1415fnw does not print wireless

    Original title: HP Laserjet CM1415fnw

    My printer has stopped printing wirelessly from my PC (but prints OK when connected with a CAT5 cable). My PC is connected to the router (BTHomeHub) wireless, I can browse and enter in the config. My printer says it is connected to the router with the identifier SSID is correct and past Network Test Wireless HP on all points. I got the impression of having a fixed IP address in case it was a DHCP problem and a static IP address reservation in the router. However, in the router settings advanced, the router says the printer is not connected and I cannot ping the router from my PC. It was working fine until recently. Any ideas? THX.

  • Printing - Windows 7 and HP printer wireless problem

    I'm having a problem with wireless printing on... I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, on a a new HP laptop and an hp officejet pro 8500 wireless device.  As another user on this forum... it will work if I plug in the usb cable, but it is not an acceptable solution for me.  I have two other computers on my wireless network... a mac and an office (both on different operating systems) that are printing the printer wireless without a problem.  It will remain not connected my laptop (Windows 7).  What seems to happen, is that I lose my connection to the network.  This is not moved until I started trying to print wireless.  But now that I am printing wireless I can print a job or two, and then I lose my connection.  If I run upstairs and power to the bottom of my router, I'll be able to print again... briefly... and then I lose my wireless connection and I start over again.  I uninstalled and reinstalled.  I installed the correct drivers (and I am able to print... but I'll have to restart my router every 30 minutes approximately).  If I'm not looking to print wireless from my laptop (with windows 7) I don't have this problem... I lose no connection between my laptop and the wireless network unless I'm wireless printing.  Other computers on the wireless network will continue to work very well, but I have to restart my router in order to get reactivated the ability to print.  Print a couple of jobs and then * poof * I can't print more.     My router is a Belkin N + B1F688.  My printer is connected wireless to my router and is recognized and used by two other computers.  I spent COUNTLESS hours trying to solve this problem.  I have lived my configuration of the firewall.  WHAT SHOULD I DO?

  • Unable to set up LaserJet Pro 1025nw to print wirelessly on a PC of Windows 8.1

    My HP CP1025nw printer will not work in my new laptop and Dell technical support is unable to help me.

    The indicator light (blue on top) flashes slowly.

    I have a NETGEAR router and it worked after that first implemented by a Dell technician.

    The printer works fine when I connect with the USB cable from the laptop.

    any suggestions?

    moon2

    Hey moon2,.

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    With the indicator (blue up on one) flashes slowly, it means that the printer is not connected to your wireless router. When the light is lit in blue, this means that the printer is connected to the wireless network.

    To start, I suggest to unplug printer form the rear of the unit for 30 seconds, then plug the power supply back in. Then, you will need to reset the default settings. I've included the document "reset the printer to factory default settings".

    Once this step is completed, you will need to uninstall the printer software. I've included the document "uninstalling the printer software.

    Now once the installation is complete, you will need to install the printer software. When installing the printer software, you first need to connect with a USB cable when prompted, but you will be able to configure the parameters by installing wireless. I've included a link to "Full Feature software and driver".

    Please let me know if you are able to print wireless following the steps above.

  • LaserJet P1102w: two side printing on Laserjet P1102w

  • LaserJet P1102w - lack of printing problems and sleep-wake duplex in ML

    I have my printer installed via AirPrint, the latest firmware and all that.

    However, the attempt of Apple to a driver treats this as a very basic printer, and I can no longer print double-sided. There also problems waking up to print if it has not been used for some time. I have to turn on the printer, cancel jobs, place them again and hope it works. Sometimes it takes two or three attempts.

    When will they be available for Cougar your real drivers? I want that my printer to work as if it was in SL and Lion.

    Chris

    No, this isn't

    When I run the setup I get to step 'Select device' and the printer does not appear. I connected it via USB for it and still nothing. I removed the printing device configured to AirPrint and the same thing. I installed it using the generic 'PCL' profile via the port USB, and the installation program still shows nothing.

    However... I returned to the page produced and found another download

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-80684-8&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=219&product=4110396&sw_lang=

    It is for 10.4 to 10.7, but I gave it a shot. Updated the firmware on my printer (again). Now I can add the printer as "HP LaserJet Professional P1100w, 5.0", and the duplex option is enabled and works!

    If this page needs updating to include bones x 10.8. I don't know why it says version 8.0 when the control panel no longer reports as 5.0. Whatever, I print double-sided once again.  I'm a happy camper

    PS I am that mark it as resolved because it was in a roundabout way, but not with the link you provided.

  • LaserJet m1217nfw mfp - Dungeon print wireless failing / falling on Mac OS 10.7.5

    I installed my LaserJet m1217nfw mfp at least 4 times during the month using my Mac running on OS 10.7.5. The first time was with the CD supplied with the printer, and the last was 3 times with the latest version of the software downloaded from HP.

    Each time, wireless printing is set up and works without a problem (using these official instructions from HP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48mLZoRjJm0). But a few days later, when I try to print the same Mac Wireless, it does not find the printer on the network. And nothing on the network or router has changed.

    It is quite frustrating. I doubt for the 5th time will solve the problem once and for all.

    Any ideas much appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hi SC_W

    I understand that you keep losing wireless connection.

    I have included a document for printer is not maintaining the wireless connection.

    To configure the static method IP go to step 6: your HP product of the assign a static IP address.

    If the printer deposits the wireless again follow step 4: perform a power reset on the HP product and a wireless router and then restart the computer.

    Hope that helps.

  • LaserJet P1102w: Double-sided printing will not turn off

    Even if double-sided printing is NOT selected in the printer properties, printing all ask for double-sided printing.  So if I go to print a single page printjob, the computer asks to have the blank page that was 'printed' just to get back in the tray.

    How can I get this fixed?

    Hi @Skunkeeper,

    Welcome to the HP Support forum.

    I understand that you use a HP LaserJet Pro P1102w printer with a Windows 10 computer and when you try to print a single page, the printer ejects a blank page and ten invites you to put in the tray, so the second side can be printed, even if double-sided printing is not selected. I would like to help with that.

    This really looks like a software problem. I would like to start by running this HP print and Scan Doctor. It is a tool that allows you to diagnose and solve the problems of printing software and printer.

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

  • Since USB to printer wireless problem. Help!

    My computer is a windows xp from 2002.  Recently, I spent a WiFi modem with connection wi - fi and got everything hooked up okay, except for the HP printer will not print from the computer now.  I can only use the printer manually now.  It shows that it is connected wireless now, but I get an error when I try to print anything the computer off "work has not print due to an error in the printery system".  I ran the wizard wireless to the printer, but still nothing.  I'm not very good at that kind of stuff.  I need someone who knows what to do, cause I sure can't seem to solve this problem.

    You need to "install" your printer as a wireless printer.  The icon is now displayed in the printers and faxes is connected by USB installation.  After the wireless installation is finished, you can either leave the premiera or delete it.

    For your printer user's Guide should be on the CD supplied with the printer. It may have been copied to your computer when you did the initial installation.  If you don't, go here--> http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01856408.pdf

    The User Guide of your Motorola cable modem (which includes a wireless router) is here--> http://tinyurl.com/bayh7wt

    I'm not sure from your description, but I think that you run the "Wireless Setup Wizard" using the controls on the front panel of the printer, as described on pages 62 and 63 of the printer User Guide.  Assuming that's what you were doing, you seem to have stopped before moving on to step 6... which is actually an entirely additional process which is described on page 66 of the use and copied below Guide.  When you perform this procedure, your computer must be connected to the cable modem, or with an Ethernet cable or its own wireless connection.
