Photosmart HP 6520: iMac HP printer

I have a printer HP Photosmart 6520.   I was printing via wireless to my network.  Still, it worked very well, but then for some reason some a few weeks ago my iMac suddenly could find more of the printer.

I've tried everything.  HP network driver download. Restore the default settings of network on the printer and then re-login to the network.  Reset the print on my Mac system.  Try to connect to the printer by IP address.  Nothing works.  And I don't understand why my Mac can't find the printer.  The Mac is connected to my network.  The printer is connected to my network.  I don't understand and I don't know what I can do.

Help, please.

Thank you

Larry

I called HP support and got the problem solved.

I did the following:

(1) unplug my router, wait 10 seconds and then reconnect.

(2) unplug my printer, wait 10 seconds and plug back in and turn it in

(3) restart my computer

After these 3 steps, my computer could not find my printer.

  • PHOTOSMART HP 6520 does not print black. And the ink levels estimated for the other inks are not correct.

    Hi, I bought my photosmart Hp 6520 year last, October. But it is no more print black after replacing ink twice. I tried to clean the print head with water and tried "clean print head" in tools, does not solve the problem...

    What is wired is that I bought 4 new 564 inks the hp of the target 2 days ago, printed only less than 10 pages to see if the problem is resolved. Then my printer told me that the cartridge is too low... Is this possible?

    It makes me crazy now... What is even worse, I used a tool to detect my printer, and he said that is no longer under warranty... But he was only 9 months... How can I solve this problem? Thank you.

    The document here can help solve the black does not print on your Photosmart 6520.  Be sure to check the vents, as on the three solution.

    If this does not resolve the issue I suggest you call HP (1-800-HPINVENt to the United States, see here for details by the way).  The warranty online tool is an estimate, they will have a process of updated the status of the guarantee if necessary.

  • photosmart HP 6520 trying to print from the ipad, but it keeps telling me tray paper empty

    I try to print from my ipad and it still says that the paper tray is empy, when it is not.  I think he wants to "photo paper" and I don't want to print a photo.  ??

    HI Vicki_O,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that when I try to print from your iPad using Apple's AirPrint feature that you have found an error output of paper for the printer Photosmart 6520.

    I suspect that you are right and the AirPrint feature is that the document is printed as an image file, so it's like a photo manipulation. I have included document Basics AirPrint from Apple. For any additional consultation, I've also included HP How to use Apple AirPrint on a wireless network.

    If you want more that what is available with Apple's AirPrint printing options, you can use the application Mobile HP ePrint. I've included the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ document.

    If you want to scan from your printer directly on your iPad, you can always download the AiO Printer Remote app from HP.   I've included the HP all-in-One Printer Remote Mobile App FAQ document.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 - black not printing

    I have a printer HP Photosmart 6520, it was working well until recently. A couple of days it color printing black with lines through their departure or much lighter than it should be. The ink level was almost empty, I bought a new set of 564 cartridges staples (genuine HP ink cartridges). After that I put them in the black was always light and got lighter with each printing. I cleaned the heads a few times, but has not made a difference. Finally the black stopped printing altogether.

    I have old ink cartridges, so I put in the dark, thinking that it was not good. Even the old one does not print, so this leads me to believe that the print head is clogged. On this model the head does not come out so I can't follow the posts on cleaning using this method. The printer is out of warranty this HP difficulty is not an option.

    Is there a way to clean the printhead without deleting? What other options can I here?

    @mikelbeck

    As it is a 6520 I would advise calling the HP helpline a call - even if it is out of warranty, as they will probably provide you with a replacement printer

  • Printers HP Photosmart 6520: Photosmart HP 6520 does not print black

    When I print from my Dell Inspiron One 2330 (wireless), the black ink does not work.  I ran 10 Windows troubleshooting link on your site and it did not help.  I printed a "quality report" directly from the printer and the black letterng was very good.  I installed the new (564XL) black ink but it did not help.  Several weeks ago, I installed Windows 10 and until this week, everything was fine.  My printer is configured as a default network printer.  I'm having the same problem when I print from my iPhone 5 and iPad.

    My problem turned out to be a hardware problem - bought a new printer.

  • Photosmart HP 6520 prints only in black, even if only selected

    When I select 'black fast project only', I get a printing color. I replaced the black cartridge and the test print just fine. So everything I do or try, can't do the printer to print black scale and Yes more, I have this default :-).

    I use OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

    Driver software & installed properly.

    Please advice. I have about 400 slides to print for studies and most of them is color pdf, it's expensive to print in full colour.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hey Ladyli

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see you try to print in black and white for your Photosmart HP 6520, but since I use Mavericks even if you have defined, printing prints always in color.

    I would like that you do the following:

    Reset the printing system

    1. click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

    2. in the hardware section, click Print & Fax/scanning. Dialog Print & Fax/scan opens.

    3.right - click (or Ctrl + click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system...

    4. click OK to confirm the reset.

    5 type the name and the correct password.

    6. click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows any selected printer

    Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

    Now go ahead and add the printer to the back and continue here: OS X Mavericks: set the print options

    You are now able to print without color? I'll watch for your reply.

    Thank you

  • Photosmart 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 will not print black

    This seems to be a common problem for these printers.  Rank of ink so I bought new cartridges and everything prints fine except for blacks.  Diagnosis of print quality page show an empty bar for black.  The cartridges are brand new inks authentic HP.  Thought maybe I had a bad so I bought another black cartridge and same problem.  Have done some research and I saw that a few people had succeeded by soaking the cartridges in the hot water.  Tried it with hot water from the tap for 15 minutes and it will always print in black.  I cleaned the print head 5 times but still nothing.  Warranty expired on 24-03-14.  So 9 months warranty and I have an anchor instead of a printer.  Help please.

    Hello people,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! I see that you are facing some print quality problems on your HP Photosmart 6520, you cannot print in black ink.

    I wish you continue troubleshooting here: printer does not print black ink or color of ink or prints blank Pages, I understand, you may have made some of these steps already but I need you to complete all the steps in order to solve the problem of the missing black, you encounter.

    Please note: there are three stages of print head cleaning. Three steps if necessary. If the print head is badly clogged, it may require another round of cleaning. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last step of cleaning (third) to start the first stage of the cleanup process.

    If you are unable to print in black ink, I think that the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. I highly recommend call you our technical support at the 800-474-6836, I'm sure they will be able to help you regardless of the status of the guarantee. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number. http://www.HP.com/cgi-bin/hpsupport/index.pl

  • HP Photosmart e-all-in-one printer 6520, find or reset the PIN code to send scanned documents

    With regard to emailing documents scanned for laptop running Windows Vista 32 - bit, Home Premium edition

    HP Photosmart 6520 model of printer e-all-in-one, CX017-64001 FPU: find or reset the PIN code to send scanned documents

    I set my printer up to send a scan of documents for me whenever my laptop isn't on. It requires a code PIN to send the document. Unfortunately I misplaced the PIN code and is forced to locate or reset. Reflected on the printer to the title web services, I can't see an option to do this. I have also recorded in the centre of ePrint online but have been unable to locate or find a reset it either.

    Any ideas how to do this? Thank you

    Hi lime,

    The best way to access the app is actually access your ePrint account and add the scan for app by email to your printer.  Once you add the application to your printer go to your apps on the front panel and you should see the scanning to e-mail.  I hope this helps.

    Let me know how it goes.

  • Photosmart 6520 does not print text in black.

    Photosmat 6520 will not print in black.  Cleaned up the wind of the cartridge and ran maintenance twice.  Test page, all the colors OK and text was correctly printed in black.  However, in attempts to print the text later, printer would not print in black.

    Almost enough money has been spent for the ink to try to correct the problem, as well as the cost of travel for the purchase of new cartridges, to pay for a new printer.  Therefore, I decided to remove the printer.  I was never as happy with it anyway.  I din't print a lot, but when I print, more ink is used in the maintenance process for the printed book.  Once again, you guys have been great, and I really appreciate your efforts to help me with the problem.

  • Photosmart HP 6520: HP Photosmart 6520 - error message when you try to use the apps

    I can't access is more apps on my Photosmart HP 6520.  I get the error message "error connection server - 1".

    I don't know if this problem just since I recently changed from a Windows PC on a Mac.

    I very rarely use the apps, so I don't know when it started.

    Everything else seems to work very well I would say.

    Can someone please tell me what could be the cause, or if there is something I can try to sort it out?

    I seem to be going round in circles, and I can't work on what is happening.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hey @TraceyMac,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.  I hope you enjoy your experience here.

    I understand that you are unable to use the pads (Print Apps) on your HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer.  I want to help you with this.  A recent installation of printer would not affect your performance of platelets but no loss of connection or wireless Web services could be a factor.

    Note that to access the applications and their use from the front panel of your printer requires two ingredients to be successful: 1) Wi - Fi connection and 2). the ePrint feature (webservices are enabled).

    • Touch the wireless icon () on the front panel of your printer - is the printer connected to your wireless network?  (If not, run the wireless configuration wizard, select your network name/SSID and enter your password wireless reconnect).  If you are connected, proceed as explained below.
    • Tap the icon of webservices/ePrint () on the front panel of your printer.
    • If webservices are not enabled, press OK in order to enable them and allow the automatic updates of printers.
    • This will cause your printer to print an information document describing the characters before @hpeprint.com your printer (ePrint address).  This is known as the claim code.  As another way to use printing applications available for your printer, you can sign in to http://www.hpconnected.com to program applications printing to print and review all the content that ideally will reappear on the front of your printer.
    • From there, you can click the devices tab and use the claimcode to add your printer to the site and take advantage of the available applications, it.

    If these basic steps to respond to a resolution, please, try the following:

    When users encounter this type of problem in general, I suggest from scratch with wireless printer, webservices, and apps printing configuration.  You can clear all of these parameters in a swoop by the factory default restore * your printer.

    Here's how:

    * Note that this step resets the setting up your printer wireless, address ePrint and other custom print settings. If you have created a custom address @hpeprint.com it is permanently erased. For more information about custom addresses ePrint, click here.

    • Front panel of the printer, arrow down and select Tools
    • Select restore default

    Then touch the wireless icon, run the Wireless Setup Wizard to restore your network connection, and then tap the Webservices () and reactivate your webservices.

    If you are able to successfully reactivate your webservices, tap on the icon of your printer wireless () and make a note of the IP address of the printer.  Then, follow these steps to configure a manual DNS:

    • Enter the printer's IP address in a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and press ENTER to go directly to this page.
    • Click the network tab.
    • In the submenu on the left, click Networking.
    • Then click on the network (IP) address.
    • Click Manual DNS server.
    • DNS preferred as 8.8.8.8 manual entry
    • Auxiliary DNS server entry as 8.8.4.4
    • Click on apply to finalize this change.

  • Photosmart HP 6520: Photosmart 6520 unable to analyze text editable

    I'm unable to analyze text editable my Photosmart HP 6520 to my pc HP Envy Phoenix running Windows 8.1 64bits.

    It is possible to scan the document to the pc in pdf format.

    It is possible to convert the PDF into a Word document, but the text is not editable.

    Is anyone able to help me with this please?

    Note: I am able to convert pdf files sent to me by e-mail in word with editable text documents.

    Hello @petermfwlet,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you want to scan files editable text your Photosmart HP 6520 e-all-in-one printer to your Windows 7 computer. Because it is a Photosmart printer text editable reading iris (OCR) software does not come with this printer model. In order to have the editable text supported HP options offers you will need to use a model of the Officejet printer. By saying this, you may be able to use third-party software of the seller to scan documents for editable text. You can also analyze your HP Photosmart camera PDF files and use a third-party vendor software to convert the PDF file to a Word document.

    Please click here for instructions on how to scan a PDF document via the HP scanning software. Once the PDF file is saved on your computer, you will use the third-party software to convert the file.

    I can not recommend a third party software to convert or analysis files to editable text. However, I did a search on the internet and found a list of programs that can suite your needs:

    PDF to Word Converter

    The editable text - Windows scanning software

    Please let me know if the information provided has been helpful. I wish you good luck going forward with this!

  • Photosmart Premium c310 will not print from the photo tray. Market power does not work.

    HP Photosmart Premium c310 refuses to print from the photo tray.  I use an iMac.  I shot tray in and out, nothing.  I stoked market, nothing.  Whenever I try to print a photo, it pulls the main tray.  He doesn't even try to pull the photo tray.  And I select in the settings of Photo paper in the photo tray.  Oh, and I have never tried to print before photos.  This is my first time and it won't work.  Printing regular documents from the main tray works fine.   Can someone please help?

    Are you printing from iPhoto?  If so (and this may apply to other applications), you must specify the format and print size.  Make it look like this:

  • 6520 will not print entire photo

    My 6520 will not print a full letter-size photo.  It prints about a third of the image until the computer gives an error message that the printer is unable to print the photo. I tried several quality and size settings, restarted the computer and the printer and changed all new ink cartridges ink HP. Print very well. This happens in Windows Photo, photo viewer and Photo HP programs. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Hello thehands, welcome to the forums

    I understand that you have some printing problems with your Photosmart 6520 and thank you where I can help with this!

    I would first make a few copies of the printer itself without going through a command sent to the printer from the computer. This will allow to test the equipment to make sure it's right before you start the troubleshooting software.

    If copies work fine, I have to know the operating system you are running. Just to be a little proactive, if you run Windows, run the print and Scan Doctor to see if the tool will correct the printing problem. If that does not help, try to uninstall the printer software and reinstall the printer by downloading and installing here: HP Photosmart 6520 e-all-in-one printer drivers

    If you are using a Mac, try the following steps:

    1. Mac OS X: how to reset the printing system
    2. Repair disk permissions
    3. Restart your Mac
    4. Add new printer (do not use the AirPrint driver)
    5. Test print

    Please let me know the results and if there are still any problems at all, I would like to know the details!

    You already have the printer hp software on your Mac?  If so, you need to uninstall the software by using the "scrubber":

    Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard / click Uninstall HP
    Click on continue
    Highlight your device in the left pane
    Hold down the Ctrl and Opt Cmd and click on uninstall< scrubber="">
    There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall all hp software. (At this point, if you continue, all HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    Click on continue and let it finish

    Restart your Mac

    Now run a software update.

    Finally, download and install the "Full Featured" driver and software from the "Support & drivers" link at the top of this page.
