• Printers (FAX and HP Universal PCL6) display offline after the reboot for 2 minutes

  Hello

  About 1 out of 10 times all the connected printers (FAX and HP Universal PCL6) are displaying offline for about 2 minutes.

  I already disabled SNMP for the HP driver and set service "Windows Driver Foundation - User - mode Driver Framework" between manual and automatic.

  The system is to be used in an environment where the user prints a report shortly after the system starts. When the printer is offline, this will confuse the user (it is a device used by users without good knowledge of PC).

  No idea how to solve this problem?

  Thank you very much for your comments!

  Hi Andreas,

  Glad to know it's working now.

  Yes, you can set it to manual.

  The police Windows Cache Service optimizes the performance of applications by caching the data in fonts. The applications will start this service if it is not already. It can be disabled, although doing so will degrade the performance of the application.

  anyway you are not stopping the service to run so well so what if you're not facing problems with programs or applications.

  In the future, if you have problems with Windows, get back to us. We will be happy to help you.

  Thank you.

• How can I remove the Administrative Tools, network connections, printers & Fax and scanners and cameras my desktop icons?

  Recently, I installed a trial version of Tune Up Utilities 2009. During one of the scans/tune-ups, he gave me the option to display the Administrative Tools, network connections, printers & Fax and Scanners & cameras icons on my desktop. I checked ok, however, now, I think it's too crowded in my office and you want to remove them... right on the desktop, not everywhere else they are located. I tried everything I know to remove them without success. Anyone knows where is the menu option to display on the desktop so I can uncheck or choose Delete? I don't want to have to change all the .ini files or .bat to because I'm afraid I don't do it correctly and create other problems.

• connect the fax and scanner on HPofficejet 6500 wireless

  HP Officejet 6500 wireless. to the PC, a Toshiba. Problems showed up to 4 months, this has been resolved by directly connecting (wired).  The printer prints, but the Fax and Scanner are not detected.  The machine is an all in one.

  Hello

  Your printer is a network printer, you are better plugged into the router and configure it with the HP software.

  Then use it with the management software provided by HP.

  AIO devices aren't devices such as hard drives, DVD, network, etc, they do not adhere to established standards and must be used with the software of the provider.

• Missing startup programs, printers uninstalled and run used print spooler

  Hi guys,.

  The title really says it all.   I am running XP.
  I tried to use my scanner but it will not work properly.
  I tried to use my printer laser hp 8000 and Canon S800 deskjet.   They are more installed and when I try to install I get an error that says that the print spooler is not running.
  All programs are missing in commissioning.   If I click on programs, then I can find them.
  Any ideas?   I ran, but I'm not all that good in the first place.
  TIA
  Greg

  "Missing programs" indicate likely malware infestation.  What do you use for an antivirus application and is his current subscription?  Have you let the subscription expires?

  Start with the download, install, update and run an analysis complete with each of these tools free amtimalware.  Do not run the scans at the same time.  Each is likely to take some time, so have something else to do.

  Now for the symptoms.

  Hidden entries in the start menu > all programs

  Beginning > menu all programs is a combination of two folders (directories) on your hard drive:

  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users Menu
  C:\Documents and Settings\\Start Menu

  If the subdirectories in one or both of the above is given to the "hidden" attribute, you will not see the corresponding entry when you click Start > all programs.  To check and fix this, right-click on the Start button and select "Open" or "Open All Users" (you should do as well until you're through).  In the window of Windows Explorer that opens, click Tools > Folder Options > view.  Click on the button "Show the hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)."  OK your way out.

  Double-click the programs folder.  Any folder that is hidden will appear "disappear".  Right click on each hidden folder, and then select Properties.  At the bottom of the general tab, uncheck the 'hidden '.  Click OK.  Select "apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files. Click OK.  Do this for all the hidden folders.  When you are finished, go back to tools > Folder Options > view and the changes that you have made previously.

  Repeat the above by right clicking on start and select open or open all users, no matter what you is not done everything first.

• 5742 HPOficejet e-all-in-one: retain default printer Fax and Photo paper tray

  Hello.

  The printer keeps failing for FAX and paper in the photo tray.  How can I fix this in windows Vista?

  Hello @Vanessa3,

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

  I understand that when you print from your Windows Vista-based computer to your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one printer the screen 'Fax' is popping up and the incorrect paper tray / support is selected. I would like to help you today to address these issues. If the "Send faxes" window appears only when you print to a specific program, there is probably a setting must be adjusted under this specific programme. If this is the case, what program are you a victim of problems when printing?  If the 'Send of Fax' window is popping up under all programs that you print from your computer, it is likely that the wrong printer is selected as the default printer in the printers and devices window. Can I please you follow the steps below to fix this problem.

  Set the default printer:

  1. Click on the Start menu
  2. Select the devices and printers or Printers (you may need to access it via Control Panel)
  3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one. This printer should display a green check mark above to indicate that it is the default printer.
  4. If your Fax-HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one shows like check mark on this subject, please right click on HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one (printer) and left click on "default".

  Once the correct printer has been confirmed as the default printer please test print to confirm that the 'Fax' problem is solved.

  Once solve us the problem of Fax, we will be able to adjust your print settings to confirm that your printer is configured to print on the correct paper and with appropriate support tray.

  How to check the paper tray settings:

  1. Click on the Start menu
  2. Select the devices and printers or Printers (you may need to access it via Control Panel)
  3. Under the Printers folder, locate your HP Officejet 5742 e-all-in-one
  4. Right click on the HP Officejet
  5. Left click on Printing Preferences
  6. On the paper/quality tab, make sure that the Paper Source is set to main tray
  7. Also, ensure that the media is set on plain white paper (if that's what you print on)
  8. Click apply and OK
  9. Close the Printers folder
  10. Try to print a document to confirm that your HP Officejet prints from the correct tray.

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

• OfficeJet Pro 8600: Officejet Pro printers 8600 and device Fax icon missing

  The OS devices and printers 'used' to include a separate icon for separate fax and printing to this printer. However, now (for some reason), it only shows the icon of the printer. If you right click on the printer icon various actions show actions for the printer or fax. In addition, the fax feature appears correctly in applications Print dialog boxes. It seems to be without loss of functionality.

  I deleted and added to the device, but there is always a single icon. I know that I could reinstall the device to download completely, but do not want to go through the effort.

  Can someone explain why I have what I have and if there is a way to separate the icon with a complete reinstall?

  Mark

  Hello

  This is an expected behavior on Windows 7 to bring together the 2 devices that share the same port, you will find the following Microsoft as a reference document:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2015694

  You can also find a workaround provided in this document to create a separate list of printers in the resolution section of the KB.

  In the past you can had a different configuration or any Windows Update have changed this behavior, but it should fully and fix.

  Simply right-click the printer icon and select the fax queue when required.

• HPOfficejet Pro 8620: Lockout admin and can not only restore factory settings no printing, scanning or fax

  HPOfficejet Pro 8620

  Once the upgrade to the last of my printer Mac security bug fix didn't work, printing, scanning or fax, tried to fix more than once as resinstalling followed etc. software instructions.  Then accidentally disabled the settings and now when I try to reset it or add printer returns Web services disabled etc. or feature was locled by your administrator, which is me... Help because I need it for work...

  You do one of 2 things @Chelle007, you can reset the printer back to the factory settings and set up again, or you can connect the printer to the computer or router Ethernet cable and use the wired IP address to access the Web integrated (Embedded Web Server) server. If you choose to install an Ethernet cable, go to the network settings on the front panel of the printer to get the IP address. Enter the IP address in a Web browser, and when the printer page opens, you can go to settings. You will be able to reactivate it. Please do not forget to select each element one at a time instead of select allow all, because if you turn on all you will lock the front panel.

  If you are unable to do so, or rather do the simple reset check your Inbox for instructions.

  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!

• Scanning with HP all-in-one printer with fax and scan Windows in Windows 8

  When you install a printer driver in Windows 8, you can scan from your computer without having to install any additional software to HP. This is particularly useful if you want to or not does not require the full functionality software or if your printer does not have a driver to scan for Windows 8.

  Windows Fax and Scan uses a Microsoft Service called WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) to capture an image from the scanner and allow you to save without the need for additional drivers.

  In addition, Windows Fax and Scan cannot scan to PDF.

• 2840 AIO: aio HP 2840 print white or yellow, fax and copy is in color

  The printer prints white or yellow. Fax and copy is without any problem and in color. What can be the François for this dysfunction between fax/copying and printing.

  I try to imagine the proper name for it, but this point that does not is the solenoid that engages the carousel in position.

  This solenoid holds the stationary carousel while you print to any given color and then frees him then the carousel can turn a quarter turn it is necessary to get to the next color.

  What happens is that when the carousel does not lock out of position toner cartridge derivatives and none of the toner transferred to the intermediate transfer belt. Sometimes you get yellow is the first color of the 4 it sets for an image.

  What actually happens is the piece of foam rubber that is located between the arms of the solenoid and the solenoid deteriorates and becomes sticky and arm sticks to him instead of the carousel of locking in position.

  To fix this you will need to disassemble the machine where you can remove the solenoid and remove the arm from the solenoid, it's pretty simple when you look at it. Then clean the tarry residue and replace it with a very thin pen, you can get them at a dollar store, if you buy the high quality pads they are way too thick and the solenoid valve will not work. You have to have something between the metal arm and the metal Center of the solenoid or the residual magnetism that has developed in the metal causes the two parts together.

  You can find the service manual for this machine to: feedroller.com
