Printer sleep mode

I just bought a HP ENVY 4500 and found it hibernates. How can I disable this feature? My computer and the printer are connected to a power source is turned off every night, and it's annoying to try and remember to take this extra step when the printer is off. In addition, regularly during the day that he hibernates automatically, which is another aspect of the frustration/irritation.

Thank you.

Hi jwc5011,

Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!

I understand that you do not want to disable the hibernation on the printer mode.

I'll be happy to help you.

To change the auto-off setting

In the start screen on the printer display, select Preferences.

NOTE: If you do not see the home screen, press the Home button.

In the Preferences menu, select automatic.

In the automatic menu, select on or off and press OK to confirm the setting.

Once you change the setting, the printer handles the setting.

Auto off is automatically enabled by default when you turn on the printer. When auto-off is activated,

the printer turns off automatically after 2 hours of inactivity to help reduce energy consumption. Auto shut-off

disables the printer completely, you must use the key to turn on the printer. For printer

models with Ethernet network or wireless capabilities, automatic disconnection is automatically disabled when the

printer makes a connection to the Ethernet or wireless. Even if automatic shutdown is disabled, the

printer enters standby after 5 minutes of inactivity to help reduce energy consumption.

I think that this will provide a solution to your problem. Thank you.

  • HP OfficeJet 3830: 3830 HP wireless printer is offline in "sleep mode" and don't wake up to print

    I've just set up a HP OfficeJet 3830 as a printer connected to my network wireless domestic (Airport Extreme Base Station router 802.11ac wireless). I was able to print-out of my MacBook, but when the printer goes into sleep mode, it appears offline and unresponsive to print. I have to restart the printer for her to appear online and respond. The printer will be in the basement, so it would be very inconvenient down to reboot just to print it. Kind of defeated the purpose of a wireless printer. I tried to disable the sleep mode to see if it works, but sleep mode settings cannot be disabled in the printer preferences. I already spent 3 hours to solve this problem.

    I contacted HP technical support to solve the problem. The person told me restore default settings and then unplug the power to the printer and the router wireless for 30 seconds. After restarting the router, then the printer, we have connected the printer to the network with a static IP address. Who did the trick. Even if the printer is in "sleep" for several hours, it has not disappeared in offline mode, as it is done before. Problem solved for now. Hope this helps others.

  • What printer goes into sleep mode computer stops

    Hi @JNBLanocha

    My stomach says mt that perhaps you have the printer USB cable connected to a USB 3.0 port on your computer instead of a 2.0 port. The image below is some examples of 3.0 ports.

    3.0 ports are supposed to be backwards compatible, but I've seen questions arise.

    I wonder if the cable you are using is the computer and causing problems pulling power. All I can do at this stage is to assume and to gather information. Please post back with the answers to the following questions;

    1. You have a USB connection
    2. If the USB is connected, you use a 2.0 port or 3.0?
    3. Again, if you use a USB connection type, have you tried another USB cable? It could be a cable problem.
    4. You put XP or you remove XP and install Windows 7?
    5. You have your printer connected directly to a power outlet, or you are using a power strip/bar, or a surge protector?
    6. Now this may sound silly, but you have a timer on your computer, such as the hibernate after so many minutes and maybe the computer and the printer are set at the same, it is possible the moment closures / sleep coincide.

    I look forward to hear from you and to work towards a solution.

  • Eprint works if my printer is in sleep mode?

    Normally in sleep mode printers await just Job (s). They should wake up to do printing works when the signals 'wake up '. In short, Yes, it works IF you have the right settings.

  • ALL-IN-ONE PHOTOSMART HP 5510 WILL NOT PRINT AFTER GO 'SLEEP' MODE

    My printer model:

    HP PHOTOSMART ALL-IN-ONE 5510 B111A

    Problem:

    Printer goes into sleep mode. After 25-30 minutes breaks the connection between the PC and the printer wireless. Beacon wireless is the same fashionable "sleep" and I see that the printer is connected to my router and there is internet connection. HP Print and Scan doctor sees the printer, but I can't wake the printer unless I restart it.

    What I've tried so far:

    I tried all the solutions offered hp.com; Reinstall driver, updating the printer software, setting static IP on the printer, static DNS servers, using HP print and Scan doctor.

    I've seen people questioned on this issue before and there is no solution. I really need help from HP!

    After days of research, the problem was finally solved! I applied the following steps below. Some steps may be unnecessary, I didn't waste my time knowing who.

    1. find your PC's DNS servers by typing ipconfig/all in CMD.
    2. assign a static IP address outside your DHCP range. For my Linksys router him between 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.150. So I put my static IP address as 192.168.1.20.

    To do this, click the button on your printer wireless. This will show the IP address of your printer. This type of your browser. Go/network/network address. Choose manual IP and write 192.168.1.20

    3 now come to section of the manual DNS server, and then type your DNS servers, you found before.

    4. open your HP printer program that must be installed with your driver. Utilities hit and update the IP address. Update your address with your static IP address.

    5. now go to your router settings. Find the wireless settings and change your not automatic standard 20 MHz radio band.

    6. change your standard channel to 6.

    7 find the wireless security and replace your WPA-personal security mode.

    8 disable UPnP

    9. This is the part of the KEY. Change the renewal of your key to 36000 seconds. (10 hours)

    10 go to the Windows Advanced Firewall. Enable all the disabled printer and share, entrants and outbond rules.
    I believe that the most important parts are affecting a static IP address outside your DHCP-range and change the key renewal time. I hope this works for you too

    Help, please. I had a lot of Wi - Fi problems after upgrade to Yosemite. I know that many others have had similar problems and the Genius bar was not able to find a solution. I get the same "I never heard of this problem before" and then run simple diagnostic tests. Here are some features:

    -iMac 21.5 "2011 Office

    -OS X Yosemite 10.10.5

    -Have had problems with connectivity Wi - Fi based on the current version works, but the worst problems came with Yosemite

    -iPad 2, Asus computer laptop and HP printer work fine. I tested the Modem and the router, they work well

    The problem: after my iMac Sleep Mode wake up my network connection is interrupted. I have to physically click the Wi - Fi connection and wait it is the signal (it takes about 30 seconds). It is not a big problem, but it becomes very frustrating after what happens every time. I have other users in households who also have this problem and they are not very good with the iMacs.

    Someone had this problem and was able to remedy?

  • Re: Disable sleep mode

    Hi I have the same problem.

    My printer always goes to sleep and not wake up when printing.

    Touch the power button then triggers a stop after which I have to restart the printer.

    Accordingly, I am close and turn on my printer every 20 minutes!

    My printer is a HP Officejet Pro 6830 and configured as a printer network via an ethernet cable.

    The printer belongs to an Active Directory domain with a fixed IP address.

    So, it seems that this configuration matches your previous answer to which the initiator of this discussion seems to not have answered.

    Hope you can provide a solution

  • OfficeJet Pro 8620: Sleep mode does not

    "Sleep" mode does not work on my new settlement 8620. I tried to change the duration of sleep from 5 min. to 10 and 15, but he was not asleep yet. I tried to close and restart the unit, but that did not help. 2 times the unit did go to sleep, but then he woke up after a short time.  Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Fitrst ensure that the printer has the latest firmware:

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04083718

    More don't forget to connect its completely directly to a wall outlet and not by some power strips, surge protectors, etc.

    If the same results persists, try temporary disconnect a cable from the back of the printer in order to isolate any possible cause (e.g. fax, USB cable, etc.), remove one cable at a time and to check for the difference.

    I suggest starting with telephone wires, telephone line condition as example may prevent the printer from sleep remaining.

    Please let me know the results,

  • Color HP Laserjet Pro 200 M251n does not in Sleep Mode

    Printer: HP color Laserjet Pro 200 M251n

    Firmware: 2014-06-04, Version 20140521

    Problem:

    Since the last update Firmware the printer does not sleep/wake no event (all configured to wake up the printer) will wake up the printer. Even to connect via Webinterfac the printer does not respond. Ping also fails.

    Tried to connect the printer to the printer ports / wall plug changed network cables nothing worked.

    The only solution is to reset the printer (power off / on) to get the printer working again.

    Played a bit with the EcoSmart configuration, but little matter what is selected it its always the same as the printer stuck sleep/sleep mode and don't responde.

    Y at - it somewhere the old FIrmware to download to try a downgrade if it would help?

    I really don't think there is anythink else I could try.

    just to confirm that the last Firmware update solves the problem

    If I remember correctly it when, one day in December when it came out

  • M125rnw: HP M125rnw sleep mode problem

    Hello

    Sorry for my English.

    I recently bought a MFP HP LaserJet Pro M125rnw.

    I installed the printer using the ethernet connection.

    I can't solve the problem with the standby printer.

    After a long stay in the mode 'sleep', the printer refused to print:

    1. I can't print from a PC with Windows 7
    2. I can't print from a PC with Ubuntu 14.10
    3. I can print reports using the WEB interface
    4. Turning to the wide on/off the printer solves the problem for a few hours

    Is this a problem with the printer hardware?

    When he goes to sleep, go to the menu of the printer and see if you can push the buttons to get the "sleep mode".  If you can, then the issue is probably with the driver you are using.  If you can't wake up the printer with the button, then you have a hardware problem and the trainer is probably defective.

I can bypass the prob of scan but not the prob of sleep.

    Hi DanToz

    I understand that the port is set to WSD, is that correct?

    I have provided a document to print the configuration page to find out the IP address of the printer.

    You have full administrative rights on this computer?

    The HP 5510d is the series so that's fine.

    If you cannot create a new port on the ports tab, then you probably don't have administrator rights on this computer.

    You would have to contact you with the it Department to be able to do then.

    You need TCP/IP port port.

    You turn off the printer to see if the computer goes into sleep mode?

    With the last s/w update, my Apple TV is not in sleep mode when running applications. It worked well with the prerequisite s/w. The most notable are the runtime of Netflix and NF completed streaming. If I exit NF at the main menu, "sleep" mode works very well.

    I contacted NF, and they said that this is not something they can control or effect.

    Any suggestions on how to remedy this situation?
