  • Unable to communicate with the printer HP 4630

    Continue error message of "Unable to communicate with the printer." Even when connected by USB.

    Have reinstalled the software several times, checked the wireless (no problem), printed many pages of configuration directly from the printer.

    I keep trying to add the printer to my preferences. One thing is that it will only add like a scanner or fax, a PRINTER. It is also called Hello Scanner. Why can't I add as a printer?

    Now, it will not also let me COMPLETE reinstallation of the software, it freezes at the section add printer and I can't move forward. So frustrating...

    Help!

  • SE error message saying the printer cannot communicate with the computer cause of blocked files.

    Original title: DRIVER of PRINTER BLOCKED

    I SEE NO REFERENCE TO THESE FILES IN THE WINDOWS FIREWALL AND TO THIS DAY THE ONLY WAY AROUND THIS PROBLEM IS TO REMOVE THE PRINTER AND REINSTALL, BUT IT WORKS FOR A SHORT PERIOD. I USED (BY REMOTE CONTROL) THE STATION OF SOLUTION DELL THREE TIMES BUT EVEN THEY EVENTUALLY REMOVE ALL AND REINSTALL THE PRINTER.

    SOMEONE HAS AN IDEA HOW THESE FILES CAN BE UNLOCKED?

    I suggest to disable CAPS LOCK key since your message is all in the capital and difficult to read. Have you tried to add to the exception in the Windows Firewall? Try also to change your network connection for work or at home instead of public. Also make sure you installed the latest version of the driver and are compatible. Also try to run the tool:

    If the problem is not resolved, contact Dell customer service.

  • My Dell all-in-one 962 stopped printing all of a sudden. The error messages are that the computer cannot communicate with the printer.

    My Dell 962 All In One Printer suddenly stopped to print. I get an error message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer. The error message suggests that I unplug and plug back the power plug and the USB cable to the printer and make sure that there are no restrictions of firewall to the printer. I did what was suggested and still no printing. I have resinstaled the printer from the CD software, I got with the computer and also installed the latest driver using the software of the software upgrade wizard.

    and also installed the latest driver by using the Software Update Wizard software.

    That would not have been the best idea... but it is unlikely that the cause of your immediate problem.

    The next thread does not make much sense to me, but it describes a situation similar to what you described and the proposed solution is supposed to have worked.  Try it and see--> http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/peripherals/f/3528/t/19483019

    I suspect that what really happens is that the driver has become corrupted.  In many cases, simply reinstall the driver is not fix things; you have to clean the old corrupt driver before installing the new.  Thus, it is more likely that the part "Uninstall" the related response is what is helping rather than playing with services... but go ahead and follow these directions, just in case.  In fact, I suggest that you run under first antimalware scanners before following the tips in the above link.

    If I had not found the link above, that's what I would have suggested (whichrequires that you have Windows XP):

    Often, but not always, the symptoms you describe are caused by a corrupt print job stuck in the queue or a damaged printer driver.  However before you clean things up, on general principles, that you can download, install, update and run full scans with each of these two free programs.

    MalwareBytes AntiMalware

    SUPERAntiSpyware

    Use the free version, not the free trials of "pro" versions  Pay attention during installation uncheck any prechecked boxes that would install some additional third-party programs.

    Do not run the scans at the same time.  Each scan will take a while.  Start one and go do a non-it chore.  Once the scan is finished, leave the program to deal with anything it finds.

    Once done, you can keep or uninstall programs, or both.  If you keep SAS, I suggest to change its default setting does NOT automatically when Windows starts.

    Uninstall all software from Dell to control panel > Add / Remove programs

    Download Microsoft Fixit 50126 impression: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9662904

    Close all running applications (anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    Run the Fixit routine.  Note: The routine Fixit has two modes, light and complete.  It will run in full mode when you check the box "Reset the spooler to print on values."  This will remove all printers, so if you have any other printer installed, I recommend running the Fixit in full mode.  If you have other printers and you do not (necessarily) want to reinstall them, run the Fixit in light mode (box unchecked).  This may work anyway.  You must restart the computer after you run in full mode; you need not restart after the Chase mode.

    After the Fixit has executed and you have restarted if necessary, make sure that the printer is disconnected from the computer and run the installation software.  You will be asked to connect the printer to a suitable place.  You can use the CD that came with the computer or download the software here (which is relatively hard to find, the claims of the main page of the 962 product support it cannot find the drivers)--> http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=R89490

  • HP1515: MAC: unable to print with the black print cartridge only

    I would like to print the document with colors black and white. There are two options of color paper Type/quality. I tried to use the black cartridge grayscale mode only. However, only the white paper printed.

    I checked the supply level of ink that are in good condition (they are in any case the new cartridge).

    I also tried the high quality grayscale Mode. Things have been printed, but the result was unsatisfactory because of the color of melted from the police. The color of the police were too light being visible.

    What I can do to make sure only black and white for printing. No gray color is fine.

    Hey @yy1992,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

    I see you have a problem with print quality with the all-in-one printer HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515. I would like to help.

    I recommend you try two Solution in this article from HP. It is oriented towards users of Mavericks, but it should be pretty close to what you see on your Mac. Note that you can run the utility of cleaning printheads up to three times if you do not see a clear improvement immediately.
