Photosmart B109n-z printer: printer HP Photosmart Wireless B109n-z-horizontal gray stripes on a black background

My printer has started to produce printing black ink poor quality despite the change of cartridges and all other things related quality control. Black text is periodic display faded horizontal lines with sharp text blurry. All switches quality of ink have been increased to the highest quality without result.

The Test page shows no problem with black type face being perfectly crisp and clear and colours print normally.

The diagnostic test page horizontal gray bands shows in the black print ONLY. See below. Is it a matter of change, printing headed into black ink?

Thank you

Hi Chatsworth52,

Sorry to hear that none of the steps has helped solve this problem.

Most likely the print head needs to be replaced, but no guarantee that will fix this problem either.

Thank you.

  • Photosmart Wireless B109n-z: Impossible to connect the printer wireless to the new router

    I just changed my wireless router and can not get my printer to recognize the new router.

    When you try to reinstall with the disc that came with the printer it keeps "quit unexpectedly" at the end of the installation, but before I get to connect to the printer.

    The drive indicates that it is for use with Mac OS X v10.4; 10.5, but I can't find an option to update the web site HP despite it stating that my printer is still supported.

    I can still use the printer with a USB cable connected directly to my table, but this is no help for the other devices I have.

    Hi @Paulwrow,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!
     
    I understand that you are unable to connect your HP Photosmart Wireless B109n-z to your new router wirelessly. I'd be happy to see this with you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.
     
    The CD/DVD software will not work with newer versions of Mac OS X. HP doesn't have the drivers for this printer in Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan. The last driver out of this printer is for Mac OS X 10.6. The only driver available that uses the driver update from Apple. This causes a problem when reconfigure the wireless, as this is the software for help. It would be easier if you have another computer running an operating system that is supported so that you can install the full feature software to configure the wireless.

    As an alternative method, you can try doing as a guideline to connect the wireless printer. We will use the ad-hoc connection. With the ad-hoc connection, you can launch the built-in web server (EWS) to access the wireless configuration wizard.
     
    Use the following steps as a guide:
    Restore the default settings of the network:

    1. Press the button next to the wireless Menu.
    2. Press the button next to wireless settings.
    3. Press the button next to network by default.

    Once the network is reset, the printer should disseminate the ad hoc connection. It should look like "hpsetup" or "HP Setup (and part of the printer name or MAC address). With an IP address like 169.82.12.44.
     
    Then, connect to the network printer, that is broadcasting.

    1. On the Mac in the upper right corner, click on the wireless icon and connect to the network "HP Setup" or "hpsetup".

    Print the wireless test report:

    1. Press the button next to Scan.
    2. Press the button next to the wireless Menu.
    3. Press the button next to wireless settings.
    4. Press the button next to run the wireless network Test.

    Browse the test report wireless IPV4 of the printer (IP address) 169.82.12.44.

    1. Launch your internet browser and enter the IP as shown. This should load the printer EWS.
    2. Click on the tab network across the top.
    3. On the left side, click on wireless or network.
    4. Run the Wireless Setup Wizard.

    This is the only way to reconfigure the wireless, unless you have another computer that has supported the software.

    For more information on the ad-hoc connection, see the User Guide.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. I can't wait to hear strings attached good luck!

  • HP Photosmart B109: cannot connect the printer to the wireless network

    I have some setting wrong my printer for wireless printing. It has worked well in the past, but with my new macbook air - this isn't.

    I can't access the function where to add the printer to the wireless network (my router does not support WPS so his password WPA).

    I remember setting this up on a PC - easy with the driver provided by HP, but on the Mac, the configuration tool does not appear to be a function where I add the printer to the wireless network - and HP did not provide a driver, because it is supposed to work with the mac built-in software.

    The manual says only: "follow the instructions on the screen", but the printer does not have instructions on how to connect - on-screen tests, only that it is connected...

    Anyone who knows how to add the printer to a wireless network?

    Hello @Joahkim!

    Welcome to the HP community!

    I understand that you have a problem to set up all-in-one printer wireless HP Photosmart (B109n) with your new MacBook Air OS x 10.10. I want to help you with this.

    Have you changed your router or your password since the MacBook Air? If this is not the case, your printer can still be connected to the network and the trickiest part of that place will be done for us already.

    We will print a Network Configuration report to see if it is connected:

  • HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110

    Hello

    I have the above printer and I m finding difficulty in ordering ink cartridges.

    The available cartridges are:

    HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110a

    HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110b

    HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110c

    HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110d

    HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer series - B110e

    I don't know the one to choose. Can someone help me choose the right cartridge please.

    Thank you

    Presho

    In the United Kingdom, the cartridges would be 364 series.  You can order black, cyan, magenta, yellow or pack combo with three cartridges.  The cartridge photo and four packs of color with the photo cartridge are not applicable for your printer.

    You can also use the XL 364 cartridges, they have more ink at a higher price, but at a lower cost per page.

  • HP Photosmart C6280: cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10

    Cannot print on C6280 wireless after the upgrade to Windows 10. Have removed the device, but try to re install the printer when is not found. Can print if I connect USB. Tried to reload the driver using HP Support software help, but when he arrives at the end of the download fails.

    Hi @Ron9871,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that you are unable to get your printer HP Photosmart C6280 wireless printing. I'd be happy to help you and don't forget to come back to this thread and check "Accept as Solution", if I have successfully helped solve you the problem. If you want to say 'Thank you' to my effort to help, click on the "thumbs up" to give me a Kudos.

    I would like to try the steps in this guide, "offline" Status Message printer (Windows 10).

    If the problem persists, you may encounter an IP address conflict. It's a good idea to assign the printer a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For example, some routers default DHCP is located between 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.200. So, I would use 192.168.0.232.

    • Print a Page of Network Configuration menu of the printer front panel. Note: the IPV4 IP.
    • Type the IP address in the browser to bring up the SAP.
    • Choose the network tab, then wireless on the left side, and then select the IPv4 tab.
    • Select Manual IP.
    • Enter your IP address manual (192.168.0.232)
    • Enter 255.255.255.0 for the subnet mask, except if it is different.
    • Enter the IP address of your router that sits on the Network Configuration Page) for the default gateway.
    • Please, click on manual DNS server. For the preferred DNS Server Manual please enter 8.8.8.8 and the Alternate DNS Server Manual, please enter 8.8.4.4.
    • Click on apply.

    Please restart the router, the printer and the computer in this sequence.

    If you're still having problems, please download and run the print and Scan doctor, it will be probably diagnose and fix the problem you are experiencing.

    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (she print or scan, error messages)

    You can try to change your WSD printer port by a Standard TCP/IP port.

    To do this, you will need your current IP address printers.  The Network Setup page shows the parameters of network for the product. To print this page; Press the button of network () on the control panel of the product.

  • Photosmart HP 7520: CHANGE THE configuration FOR MY PRINTER HP 7520 wireless

    When my printer has been set up by my neighbour she has implemented using his MAC wireless network.  She moves and will dismantle its printer and now I wonder if my printer still works or I need to set up wireless myself.  If so, how do that before she moves so my printer does not work?  A computer expert quoted me the sum of $150.00 to do this for me, but I hope I won't have to resort to that.  Thanks for your help.

    Hi @filgrastin and welcome to the Forums!

    I see that you are looking in the wireless options. I would like to help.

    There are two routes, you can opt for printing, if you lose the network, sure it is.

    First of all, if you have your own wireless network, you can connect to:

    The software configuration of the printer to a wireless network for the e-all-in-one printer series HP Photosmart 7520

    Second, you can connect a USB cable and print via a wired connection.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!

    AT THE END OF THE YEAR, I BOUGHT THE HP PRINTER PHOTOSMART WIRELESS E-ALL-IN-ONE (B110A).  I REPLACED THE COLOR (364) CARTRIDGES, BUT THE CARTRIDGE BLACK (364), I BOUGHT IS NOT SAME SIZE ONE PROVIDED WITH THE PRINTER, IT IS MORE SMALL AND DOES NOT FIT IN THE SLOT.  DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM?  NOW PRINTER CANNOT USE AS BLACK IS EMPTY AND CANNOT REPLACE IT AS THE 364 PROVIDED WITH THE PRINTER IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PURCHASED SEPARATELY.  VERY FRUSTRATING.

  • Photosmart b109n-z: Photosmart wireless b109n-z pilots

    I am trying to download the driver for my printer Photosmart wireless b109-n-z. The wizard detects the printer, but then crashes with the message "HP is compile your results." It could take up to 3 minutes, depending on the speed of your computer and connection. Thank you for your patience. "and not going anywhere.

    I saw a recent request for the driver to a different printer for someone who was having the same problem as me with the HP Web site.  The problem was solved by a direct link to the download.

  • fake disconnected ' HP Photosmart Wireless B109n-z. ' message

    Hi all

    Using the center of HP sollution, I see the message offline wireless HP Photosmart B109n-z.

    However, I can print, I can see the cardriges levels filling and I have no problem to reach the printer via IP address.

    However, this issue would prevent me from scanning documents.

    I already reinstalled the app once, but it was a disaster even more great, even scubber not having to uninstall the HP printer software.

    Any ideas?

    GRZ

    Hi there @robhoe

    Welcome to the community

    It sounds to me like driver installation has not filled completely and correctly on your system Windows 8.1, which could be the reason why you do not have the scanning features in the software.

    Please make sure you that the printer will make copies before make you any software troubleshooting, as if there is a problem copying (printer hardware problem), the installation will most likely never complete successfully.

    I know you tried a scrubber, and that's what I would try again to remove completely all the components of your PC printers and then reinstall them later. If you want to give a shot of this, I'll post all the steps below for you to try!

    1 run this cleaner tool to remove the printer files. Use only an uninstall of level 3.

    HP Officejet software and driver removal utility

    2. restart the computer entirely to complete uninstallation.

    3. download and run the installation of your PS B109: HP Photosmart Wireless all-in-One Printer series - B109 Full Feature Software and Driver

    I hope this works, good luck!
