Printer HP 2605dn offline with Windows 7

Printer returned to offline mode.  She does regularly every 2-6 months for 5 or 6 years I've owned it.  Tried to remove & reinstall, tried both the printer & off the computer.  Nothing works for now.

Sometimes, it is an easy offline & closing all & restart will fix it.

Other times, like now, it's a hard Offline where anything I did before fix it.  Printer refuses to go back online.

My router has an IP set reserved 0-9, the 10 IP printer, for example 192.168.0.10 tried to manually set the printer to match the assigned port but always in offline mode.  Even when I operate, after 2 months, it is assigned port IP changes to some random # and it goes offline again.

Any suggestion is appreciated.  Very tired of this problem with HP.

Thank you very much.  I managed to do the work.  It does not appear the Windows-7 periodically loses the lease on intellectual property and assigns it elsewhere.   In this case the printer had a fixed IP address and that the IP was reserved for the MAC address of the printer in my router DHCP Server.

However, this didn't stop Windows 7 from the creation of a new device and assigning the IP address.     I removed the new feature of Windows 7 and my old Windows printer and created a new printer in Windows and made sure he used this IP address.

I should also mention to try to use latest PCL6 HP "universal printer drivers.  These most recent allow double-sided printing which allows to make my printer itself.  The old drivers (PCL5) do not support this.

You can keep a copy of archive of pilot practical (I have a folder of source programs) in case you need to reinstall.

  • The printer does not work with windows 7

    Just bought a Samsung R480 today and discovered that my existing printer is not compatible with it. The Setup disk only works with Windows XP and Vista. Samsung R480 running Windows 7 at the moment.  I was also considering changing my desktop computer for Windows 7 as well.

    So my question is, is it possible to request an another HP installation cd that is compatible with Windows 7? Or I have to buy a new printer that is compatible with Windows 7?

    Thank you!

    The link below should show the selection of OS for the drivers of J4680c. just click on what version of Windows 7 you have (32-bit or 64-bit), then download it the driver full of features.

  • Set up a wireless HP all-in-one printer on your desktop with Windows XP Pro Version 5.1 SP3

    Recently, I uninstalled Solution Center HP from my desktop PC with Windows XP Pro Version 5.1 SP3.  The program worked very well and was connected wireless to my HP Photosmart all-in-One 309 g.

    Now, when I downloaded the latest software feature full HP and installed, it has completed the installation but could not connect to the wireless printer.  Setting up the wireless printer, he did 'see' the HP 309 g printer and I chose this but it gave me a dialog box saying that there was no installation configuration.  I also, tried the control panel "Add Hardware", but he couldn't 'find' the printer.  What should I do?

    You have an icon for the 309 g Photosmart in Start menu > printers and faxes?

    If so, right-click on it, select Properties, and click the Ports tab.
    By ensuring NOT to click inside the list, use the scroll bar on the right until you see the line highlighted and verified with the port used for this printer.  That said this line in the columns 'Port' and 'Description '?

    Note that you may need to click and drag on the small vertical line between 'Port' and 'Description' in the header line to make the column wide enough to read the entire entry.

    Click Cancel to exit the printer properties dialog box.

  • Printer does not work with Windows Vista

    My HP Deskjet2540 all in one printer will print with windows vista. Ive tried printing from excel, works and all I get is a blank sheet. Sometimes I get some very weak marks. I have a lot of ink, I uninstalled and reinstalled only to get the same result. However, I can print something on the internet and I can print a test page. I get no error message.

    Hi cat22,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support! I see when you print from Excel to your HP Deskjet 2540 printing comes empty or with very weak lines. You have a lot of ink, and you have no problem printing from other programs. You tried to uninstall and reinstall the software without success.

    I would like to first you attempt to change the quality setting, you can have currently set to normal, we will try to print in optimized mode and see if that helps:

    1. go to your Start Menu

    2. go to your devices and printers

    3. right click on your DJ 2540 and navigate to Printing Preferences

    4. click on the paper/quality tab

    5. Select the best mode

    6. click on apply

    Now try printing from Excel, you still get blank pages? Please let me know the results if you are still running into errors let me the following information:

    1. What is your current operating system, Windows or Mac and what version?

    2. What is the connected USB printer or wireless?

    3. are there any exceptional computer upgrades that have not been installed?

    I hope hear from you soon.

  • Intuit quicken does not print the black font with Windows 8.1

    When I print the reports from Quicken 2008 on my HP 4500 Wireless printer, only major titles that have shadows and text print.  (the red numbers can also print in red).  Reports printing OK on another printer. This issue was raised only since I changed my computer and operating system went from Vista to Windows 8.1.

    Other assignments you suggest to download another driver, but is there other drivers that are compatible with 8.1?

    Thank you for your answer!

    Certainly there is software and drivers available, located on this Web site. Driver and software of HP Officejet full feature.

    Before installing I would recommend to uninstall snack, there are still old software on the computer. Uninstalling the printer software.

    Then I would clean the computer starts. How to perform a boot in Windowsand to use the printer HP install wizard for Windows. If the printer HP install wizard for Windows does not then download software driver full of features with the first link I provided.

  • Dell 942 all-in-one inkjet printer has stopped working with windows 8.1

    Printer drivers are installed. When you try to print the document doesn't seem to be in Quebec, then disappears.  Windows says it's not compatible, but I was able to scan documents. Any help would be appreciated!

    ozmoses,

    8.1 Windows comes with Internet Explorer 11. I hope that the original version is up and running. Windows Update comes from Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 7 and 8, and it has caused problems of print spooler. We found that removing IE11 and going back to IE 10 or an earlier version has solved this problem. Something you can't do with Windows 8. Unless there was an update to Internet Explorer is the last month or two that you can remove, issues of print spooler will perform until Microsoft releases an update.

  • HP 5150 does not print mode quick project with Windows 7

    Bought a new HP Pavilion dv7 computer with Windows 7.  I guess it comes with the print driver for my HP deskjet 5150 printer, because I can print but it will not print as fast.  Printing choices have always been best, Normal, fast, normal and quick project.  I still see the same choices, but it seems to print in Normal mode, even when I choose the project quickly.  I tried to uninstall the printer driver and reinstallation of HP, but that doesn't seem to work.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Canon BJC-50 printer and scanner work with Windows 7?

    I have a printer Canon BJC-50 with the cartridge scanner.  I ordered a USB to parallel cable adapter must be able to connect to my laptop, because I do not have a parallel port.  The Windows 7 compatibility page says that this printer is compatible with Windows 7.  Canon said that it is not.

    Has anyone successfully connected and used a Canon BJC-50 with Windows 7?  If so, were there any problems?

    HI - same issue with Canon BJC-80. Says Windows is compatible and Cannon did not write! My BJC-80 prints OK with a USB/parallel cable and install via Windows 7 OK - but printer response time is in minutes to hit a comand "Print" in any program, for example. MS Word 2010?

    Suppose that we are victims of the creep of technology and need to buy a new printer - shame I have heaps of cartridges left!
