• Reset the printer: what you need to know

  There are a growing number of messages in this forum and elsewhere in the internet with the steps to do a reset on different printers.  Reset to will sometimes fix problems, so resetting is not the issue.

  A few resets require you to enter key combinations to open special menus on your printer that you were supposed to never access.  These special menus are used by developers and staff support for debugging of problems, but they are not intended for inexperienced users and can have unexpected results.  A wrong button push and you might no longer have a printer, but rather an expensive paper weight.  On top of that, if you happen to the 'brick' the printer in this way, it is considered as customer induced damage and voids the warranty automatically. These resets are only intended to be distributed and used as a last resort and under the direct instruction of a representative of the HP technical support. They should not be made lightly!

  If the printer has already damaged due to her fiddling in the care of the menu, you may need to Contact HP for (paid) service.  Best not to do the damage in the first place...

  An example of the damage that may be caused would be the printers that use special cartridges installation.  Reset the printer to factory conditions can cause sound to demand once again the cartrdiges Installer.  If the original cartridges of configuration have been exhausted or discarded the user must contact HP for cartridges to install since there is no distribution channels.

• Got paper stuck in the printer and now will only print proofs. How to reset the printer

  Got paper stuck in the printer and now will only print proofs. How to reset the printer

  It looks like you may have some saved jobs in your queue that need to be removed.

  Here's how:

  To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the jobs/print pending.
     
  You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
        
  To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
         
  services.msc
         
  Click OK to open the Services Applet.
         
  Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
     
  The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
     
  If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

  Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service immediately.  You must remove all print jobs backed up first...
     
  Then, delete all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send the to the printer again.
     
  Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
     
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
         
  Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
         
  Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
     
  After the reboot, check again the Spooler Service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

  Submit new failure of print jobs.

• Reset the printer C6180 for different regions cartridge

  I recently moved to the United Kingdom in New Zealand. My C6180 is configured for cartridges 363 series available in the United Kingdom. The same cartridge is 02 series in New Zealand, and when I install the printer tells me that the printer is not configured for this cartridge. I think I have to reset the printer to a different area, so two questions.

  1. How can I do this and if I need to call HP where can I find the number?

  2. I guess I can't mix cartidge types so will have to replace all of them, correct?

  Thank you

  B

  1 make sure you buy set of inks that are compatible in New Zealand and make sure that SW has been installed on your computer.

  2. Please call technical assistance from HP - 0800-441-177 for more information.

• How to cold reset the printer Laserjet M175nw MFP Color 100?

  Try changing the settings wireless, but keeps on asking for a password that I don't remember.

  Printer works fine so hard connected to the network.  ePrint works very well.

  Just updated to the latest firmware available.

  I just need to change the wireless settings that I recently changed my password for wireless network.

  In addition, access to the menu is disabled from the control panel of the printer.

  So the only way that I can think of is to reset the printer and start the installation from the top.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  You must perform initialization of storage generally in order to remove the password configured in the fuly, any other reset will not erase this kind of configuration.

  In order to perform this reset, you should contact HP Support.

  You can get the details to contact HP by selecting your region and following technical support after purchase below:

• Reset the printing system - what happens exactly; 10.5; OJ Pro 8000n

  Hello all-

  Well the bug in the software update (10.5.8) did.  I forgot that HP Printer Drivers update 1.1.1 continues to appear even if its been installed before.  As a result, I have now lost some features with my new OJ Pro 8000n.  I plan on resetting the printing system, but first I want to be sure I understand exactly what is happening.

  I have a much older Business Inkjet 1100d also installed, and I am not totally convinced that if the former driver for it gets uninstalled by reset the printing system I can find the old disk to reinstall this former driver and all the features.

  My impression is that reset the printing system removes all printers installed Print & Fax Preference, but does NOT the driver software and the real characteristics.  (On the other hand, I assume that the "scrubber" option removes all the drivers and extras?)  Am I correct that?

  Thanks - Randy

  Well Yes, reset the printing system does not remove the printer software or the driver.

  Here is an article from Apple stating (at a very high level) what this function.

• Reset the printing preferences

  Is there a reason to print now remembers the printing preferences (in particular, the number of copies) made during printing?  I now fear an increase in my number of printed copies.  He ALWAYS remembers it now.  If any time I print 20 copies, the next time I use the printer instead of print 1 copy by default, it reminds the number 20.  I lost so much paper and ink and grabbed coffee and return to find 20 copies instead of 1.  This never happened to me before only started very recently.

  You can always pause or cancel a print job. He doesn't have to run to its conclusion.

  In any case, try this.

  Go to System Preferences > printers and Scanners > right click on the printer in the left sidebar and select this option to reset Printing System.

• Reset the printer c6180

  I have a c6180 sometimes I switch off at night using power button.  Normally it turns on fine.  Today, I got the message that I need to use power button and not disconnect or turn off band (which I never do).  The machine guard re-boot during the start cycle.  I tried to push #-6 while plugging the unit, such as suggested by the other post.  It seemed to work when you turn on the printer, but when I tried to print it kept recycling through start cycle.  All of the suggestions.

  I'm afraid that the printer can be fried. You can try the steps outlined in the document below. If those who do not help, try to do a hard reset. If this does not work, try to do a partial reset. If none of this does not work, you will need to replace the printer.

  The HP printer power on not or answer:
  http://goo.GL/QBeRH

  To do a hard reset:
  1. make sure that the printer is turned on.
  2. pull on the power cord from the printer.
  3. pull out the power cord from the wall.
  4. wait for 30 seconds.
  5. plug in the printer and turn it on.

  To make a partial reset:
  1. make sure that the printer is turned on.
  2. pull on the power cord from the printer.
  3. pull out the power cord from the wall.
  4. wait for 30 seconds.
  5 connect the power supply cord inot the wall, but do not connect the printer.
  6. press 3 and # buttons.
  7. while now buttons, plug in the printer.
  8. when the lights come on, release the buttons.

• Color Laserjet M252dw: Cannot reset the printer

• Photosmart 2575a - cartridge after moving from country / out of warranty reset the printer?

  HP WEB SITE WROTE:

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02558798

  What country you were originally?  The world was divided into four regions of regionalization of the cartridge as described in this page.  If you are currently in Poland and moving to the United Kingdom, that the cartridges will be the same, they are both in zone 2.  In this case, the cartridges in the new country are the same as your existing cartridges.

  If you move to a country in a different area, then you can buy cartridges in the new area.  You will need to Contact HP to ask a "regionalization Reset." Do not charge for this, it is covered under the warranty of the cartridge, even if the printer itself is no longer under warranty. You will need to have access to your computer and printer then on line with HP. You will also need to have a set of cartridges for the new region, once completed reset cartridges of region of origin no longer works.
