printer stops

How can I stop the printer (laserjet p1606dn) turning off automatically after a few minutes

It is possible that the auto stop delay is set on too short a period of time.  You can increase this time, or disable this feature.

For information about how to do this, read the document, found here.  Let me know how it goes.

  • Printer stopped working after I removed a paper jam - Deskjet 6988

    I removed a paper jam today, according to the instructions. But since I did it, it will not be printed. The power light is, as if it's OK, but he absolutely refuses to print.

    My printer is a HP Deskjet 6988 and I am on Windows 7, 64 bit.

    Whenever I try to print, the print queue displays the print job for about a second, then he faints. I try to print again, it disappears. Then, if I do it a third time, it appears in the list and stays there, but the printer does nothing.

    After two minutes the queue no longer mentions it as the "impression". Instead, it says, "error printing". I try to delete the print job, but it just sits there, saying "error printing". It will not erase. The only way to remove it is by the printer stop or restart the computer.

    If I try to print after that stuff all over again.

    I tried closing the printer and reboot, restart the computer, power cycling (stopping the printer, unplug the cables, waiting..., plug again and restart).  I ran the Diagnostic Utility and it tells me that it works very well - well, very good for a very large paperweight.  I used troubleshooting via the Control Panel, and he said: "a print job in the print queue prevents other printing of print." But as I have already said, delete the print job does not solve the problem.  I am stuck in a loop of the removal of print jobs and nothing works.

    Help, please!

    Hey Tigger,

    It may have been stuck in the diagnostic mode - not able to move forward or backward for a time very long.

    Next time, if this never happens again, you can try a Reset of the printer:

    Here are two types of reset the base printer:

    (1) if there is a keyboard, turn it off, then on and press on # and 6 (press and hold while turning on the printer).

    (2) without a keyboard?  So unplug that LEAVE unplugged for 30 seconds to a minute.  Reconnect it.  (Be careful with this one - will not shock).

    It can become a little more complicated than that, but a basic reset sometimes "will have the printer attention" if it's just "spinning" and nothing else will not physically.

    I'm glad it works again.

    Maybe printers receive loners.   The smile.

  • HP Color Laser Jet CP1215: print - guard 'book light' flashing - printer stops charging of paper does not alter

    Hello!

    For about a week, I have the following problem with my HP Color Laser Jet CP1215: after 2-3 pages of printing, the device stops abruptly in the middle of a job and the light number 5 (paper) continues at the flashing light.

    However, the bin is full with paper.

    Ignitions and extinctions help only for another 2-3 pages, then printing will stop again as described above.

    Is there maybe a photoelectric cell that needs to be cleaned or a mechanical part that gives the status of bad paper from the paper tray to the printer?

    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Best wishes

    Herwig

    Hi @wigl,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I see that your HP Color LaserJet CP1215 printer stops printing when the print jobs. 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 can see how frustrating it would be. To determine the cause, we need to use more than one document. Redundant that some steps may seem, I would execute all.

    Please, try the steps in this these guides:

    If the problem persists, try a hard reset:

    • Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
    • Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector. This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.
    • Make sure that the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (do not use a hub or a surge protector) This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

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

  • Why the printer stop printing when you click Cancel?

    This may belong in the Technet forum, but this is a question that concerns me since the days of Windows 95.

    Sometimes striking impression make you you screwed up in a certain way and to cancel the print job. Enter the printer, right click on the document and hit Cancel usually takes some time, during which the printer keeps printing and waste of ink & paper.
    Why is this? Why doesn't it stop immediately? Why do several PAGES for it to stop? Come to think of it, I can't think of a time casual since I left high school (which uses Mac and Apple printers) when I have not tried to stop a print job to a printer that was not Hewlett-Packard (an HP printer from ""), so I'm not sure if it is exclusive to HP or not. Work used to stop printing almost immediately after order - Macintosh printing, or at least they did with printers ImageWriter and LaswerWriter Mac OS 6.0.8 - 9.1.
    This is not the case with Windows 95 - Windows 7.

    I used to assume it had something to do with the buffer memory of the printer, but a recent incident involving someone accidentally unplugging the computer when the printer was on changed this long assumption based on my experience when I bought a buffer for my printer ImageWriter II return to 1989 or 1990. Printing stopped almost immediately after the computer that it was connected to the lost power (he tried to disconnect a faulty device so that it could be shipped to the manufacturer and pulled the wrong plug).

    This phenomenon embarrassing occurs on several different computers, printers and configurations. School computer laboratories on the areas of small business workgroups to systems of the House with the directly connected printer.

    Hi, SlickRCBD,

    The memory has a lot to do with why this does not block when cancelled.  There may be an older doc who is was filed here.  Unplug the printer from the computer periodically.  Leave that he unplugged for several minutes (5 max), then reconnect.  Remove the cables that connect to the back of the printer for the same amount of time.  This clears the memory.

    Open elevated command prompt

    Enter Net Stop Spooler

    Wait message spooler stopped

    Go to your windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS\ folder

    Search for files ending with. SPL and. SHD created around the time that you were trying to print - delete these files.

    Return to the command prompt window

    Type Net Start Spooler

    You will see message spooler has begun

    Output

    Sometimes the files are hungup.  The above gets rid of them.

  • My Lexmark printer stopped working and the error message says "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?).

    When my printer stopped working because of error messages about "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?), I tried to change to 2nd USB port without success. I tried a new cable; that did not help.

    Then I uninstalled and reinstalled my Lexmark printer and changed the error message. Now, the printer does not work because "the USB device is not recognized."

    I tried to update the chips; Use 1 USB port; and using the old cable, all this without success. I checked the connections of the cable to the printer and the PC and turn on the printer and goes off; I'm out of ideas. Any other suggestions?

  • Estation c510 printer stopped working

    My HP Photosmart eStation c510 stopped working 2 days ago.  I have Windows 7 ultimate 64 - bit operating sys.  I did everything I could to isolate the problem, but no solution has fixed the problem.  My computer sends the print job to the printer, but I get the error message: printer has failed and alignment failed.  I rebooted the printer set to nothing or bells, I tried to copy null, scan-nothing and all the software is up-to-date.  I printed a few color photos and black and white, the other day with all the problems.  I hope a solution, it's out there, I like the printer and features, but...

    Thanks for any help!  Scrapman

    Sorry you had a problem with the printer does not print.

    If you encounter a failure "alignment", then it is a hardware problem with the printer itself.

    Try out the printhead and manually clean the bottom water and lint. Lift the latch to the right of the cartridges in and out of the area of the basket. This is the print head.

    You can also clean the cartridges or replace. It is a problem of ink system. Try the link below and see if that will help.

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03081973

    After completing these steps and see if you can perform an automatic test or report to printer from the printer itself.
