printer does not print not unless disabled as

Hi all

I got an officejet pro 8600 for about two years and had no problems until now. I recently had to change my router

of course, the new router came with new password etc.

I have managed to connect my laptop to the router wi - fi and followed the instructions to do the same thing with the printer. But since that I have found that if I try to print from the laptop, I get the following pop up message cannot communicate with the printer.

If I then turn the printer off then back on again then will display.

Separately, I have also a small icon in the lower corner of the laptop, which indicates that the computer scan is disabled if I open the scan to manage to the computer, I am unable to activate this (I have not tried the thing even with power that I didn't need to scan anything recently)

It seems obvious to me that when I implemented the new router I did something wrong that caused this fault to occur.

I'd be very grateful if someone would be able to maybe explain what I did wrong and how I might solve the problem.

Also I'm not that tech savvy/when it comes to computers so less technical the best answer

Thanks in advance

Deleting one of the printers might do the trick, but I can't help but wonder if the best thing to do would be to remove the driver for the printer from the server properties, and then add it again.

1. in the folder "devices and printers".

2. choose "print server properties.

  • Win XP - with no printer selected, click 'File' then 'server properties '.
  • Windows Vista - with no printer selected, press 'Alt' and then click 'file' then 'server properties '.
  • Windows 7/8 and 8.1 - Select any printer in the "Devices and printers" folder and click on "Print server properties" above.

3. click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window "properties of the print server.

4. choose the printer that you want to uninstall, and then click 'remove '.

5. choose "Remove driver only.

6. the next screen will give a warning, letting you know that the removal of the driver package will remove it from the system. Click 'Yes' to say are you sure you want to do.

If documents are stuck in the spooler to print, you see an error, cancel all documents waiting in the print queue or try restart the spooler to print, and then try to delete the driver from 'Print server properties' again. If she will not always remove the sachet, restart the computer and the printer should correct this error "in use" and allow the driver to be removed.

Once the driver is then deleted, open start > all programs > HP folder > folder printer > HP Setup and software (or the icon of the printer).

The installation screen and the software opens and you can click on connect a new printer.

  • JavaScript does not unless the user double-clicks

    I'm working on a redesign of a site. On the FAQ page, there is a javascript script. You are supposed to click on the Q to reaveal has. On the dev site, you have to doubleclick. This is false.

    Here is the page in development:

    http://mayakaimal.com/mayakaimal2/about-FAQ.html

    It works on the old site:

    http://mayakaimal.com/FAQ.html

    Any idea is appreciated.

    MOOKIE

    This is because on the dev site hidden answers have all received an Afaq class that has css display: none which hides all the answers on the loading of the page. While the other site there is no class on the div of answers, but the answers have an inline style to hide.

    The javascript works by changing the style inline the div to answer... the first time on the dev site it does not find any inline style therefore defines some to display none, while on the second click it starts working again!

    so the easiest solution would be either to modify the javascript code to change the css class, or to remove the class and add a style inline like on the online site.

    Compare the two sites with a tool like firebug for firefox and you should see the difference in the HTML markup and javascript by changing the inline style.

  • In the form of domain information does not, unless the user clicks on the field?

    Hello

    I got PDFs with form fields that contain text. In the past, all the text is visible and if more text is in the more visible area, you get the scroll bar.

    The last document I received, the text does not appear, until I actually click the biox field. Once I click on the field, the text and the scroll bar appear, but once I click it disappears again? We cannot understand why?

    Anyone know how or why this happened and what is the solution?

    Thank you!!

    Babs

    This works because it gets Acrobat to redesign the appearance of the field, which is the problem. Preview does not correctly save the PDF file and field appearances can get damaged. Importing data in causes Acrobat to redesign the field, partially correct things.

  • Command button does not correctly disabled

    I use a commandButton control and its partial trigger is defined on a table. The reason is that I need to update the label with the number of lines selected in the table. And if no row is selected, it should be disabled. So to start, I put the 'disabled' attribute to true.
    Now I am facing this problem. The button is disabled. But when I pass the mouse over it, I can see it highlighted and apparently activated and I can click on it when the mouse is on it. Otherwise muted. Why it behaves like this?

    I have tested a 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.6.0 upgrade and see the same question. CommandButton that are disabled seem to be activated when you hover over. By clicking on watch it invalid later and does nothing.

    I was able to fix by adding this to my skin

  • Touchpad does not work on my Satellite C75

    but unfortunately this does not work.

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    Fn + F9 does not active / disables the touchpad on laptop series.
    The right combination is Fn + F5 or just press F5.

    Hello

    It seems that the new router may not support multicast or was not configured correctly.

    Networking Hello Zero Configuration Apple is the method of communication used by any Apple device and relies on IP multicast.

    Some routers does not support multicast or maybe this option is disabled by default.

    I wouyld recommend contacting the Technicolor gateway serice provider and check if the access point supports multicasting, or it may require updated firmware or the specific support configuration.

    Kind regards

  • CP1518ni on Win7 64 bit does not print unless that ' ignore the ' is on

    I get the message "replace supplies" and the printer does not print unless the 'out' substitution is turned on. I replaced the ink once and then got the message "replace supplies" in the following days.  I installed HPPDU which refers to the series CP1510 PCL6. the diagnostic screen says everything is fine. I also downloaded the 20100616 update.  I noticed that the 'solution' ToolboxFX does not work with Win 7.

    What Miss me?  Should I continue printing under "replace" until all four cartridges run out completely, and then trust that the printer will work without the substitution on the future cartridges? Thanks for your help on this.

    Bkaytee

    Yes, it is possible that drive e-lable contact has malfuncioned.  I would say that your options is as follows:

    A. keep the game of "substitute for" will continue to work and should cause no issue. (It doesn't stop that monitoring of level of supply of Toner, then when degrades the quality of printing, then a new toner must be purchased.)

    B. contact HP support for service possible. 1-800-474-6836 1-800-HP-Invent

  • D7360 does not print in "Black Only", unless the color cartridges are also not empty

    I try to print a document in grayscale mode with Photosmart D7360 printer.

    In the Print Setup dialog explicitly checks the possibility of using 'Black Print Cartridge Only'.

    The printer refuses to print, in saying:

    «The following ink cartridges are empty: Light Cyan.» Replace the ink cartridges to resume printing.

    "The printer doesn't have enough ink to ensure printer health. Empty ink cartridges need to be replaced to resume. »

    This means that even if it does not use the color cartridges, each of them must be non-empty when the printer is in operation?

  • Does not print unless I refresh the web page of the printer

    Photosmart Premium CN503A with iMac OS 10.7.2.  Driver deleted and reinstalled through system preferences > print and scan.  The printer made a kind of upgrade software wireless this week.  (However, the problem before this event).

    The printer, close the iMac and the router does not work for print orders.   The print queue log shows that the printer is connected, but the jobs do not print.  Finally, without printing, the connection returns to idle.  I can get the printer to answer by clicking printer setup > Show printer web page.   Stop the printer and I must refresh the web page several times before the printer has finally complete the work.

    I am very disappointed by this printer.

    We will restore the print system:

    -Go to System Preferences > Print & Fax
    -Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - This will remove ALL your printers!
    -Select the sign more to add a printer. Search for the printer, select it, and wait until the button 'Add' becomes available. Until it clicks.

  • HP Color Laserjet 4700n does not print unless you press the button "Refresh" on the printer...

    Hello

    Trying to support a printer down in our Australian Branch, so I can't see the printer, what users say just.  This problem occurs for everyone down in this office (about 20 users).

    It is connect via LAN to everyone and it does not seem printer for everyone until they go up to the printer and press the button "Refresh" on the printer itself.  It's a HP 4700n color jaserjet printer.  I got them to recycle the power on the printer leave unplugged for about 5 minutes and also tried to reset service print spooler on a user's computer and the server, but none of these options helped.  I also tried to remove and time the printer to a computer to users, but that did not help either.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    Hi, thanks to send additional information.  It really helped.

    The following is taken from the User Guide which can be found here:

    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/CoreRedirect.jsp?redirectReason=DocIndexPDF&prodSeriesId=473038&targetPage=http%3A%2F%2Fbizsupport1.austin.hp.com%2Fbc%2Fdocs%2Fsupport%2FSupportManual%2Fc00366053%2Fc00366053.pdf

    The message that users see is a Media fast charge.

    On Page 198, there is a section on the message they see.  It also includes measures to address the message.

    It is likely that the tray is already loaded with media of the letter otherwise, they would get another error after pressing the button to check twice.  However, media guides are very likely out of position and causing the printer to think that the letter is not loaded.

    For step 2 to verify the media guides see page 97: "setting up trays of food.

    When you load paper into tray 2 and have the media guides correctly aligned, after the closing of the tray of the printer, you should see a prompt saying that plain letter was loaded in tray 2.  This prompt is to change the type, size is automatically detected by the tray.  You see a different size than the letter when the tray is closed, which means that the guides are not good position and should be adjusted.

    You can also check which think that the printer is loaded by accessing the paper handling menu as described on page 98.

    Once you have the printer thinking that plain letter is installed in tray 2, the jobs of users requesting letter tray 2 should not more the prompt.

    What happens if you check that the guides are in the right position, but you don't always get a letter in the status bar?  It is an indication that the size of detection does not work correctly.

    Check the guide position tray holder should solve the problem. It may have been moved from its position when the new document has been loaded.  If this does not resolve the problem, please after return.  Let me know the size of the media and type that the printer thinks is in tray 2, the driver that you are using as well as the driver for the work of the user settings.  This will allow me to try additional things at the office.
