Turn the printer online

It is a simple question that no one seems able to give a simple answer. In windows 7 How to change a printer offline to online. It's a change to a single click in XP!

True - the Brother HL-5250DN just goes to sleep.  No online/offline to the printer (although in my view, the web interface may have something.  I'll check my 5170DN).

However - in your case - make sure you have the latest driver installed and the driver not only the "Windows 7 seen."

Click here to visit the site to download for the Brother HL-5250DN

You will need to know if you have 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7.

They have a complete package of software/driver update 21/02/2011.  This gives you the best feature (speaking from experience) on a Brother printer.

  • Photosmart 7520 error: there is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer off, then on.

    I have a photosmart 7520 affected by the following issues.

    Issue #1: randomly, all lights start flashing market and the screen reads the following:

    Error. There is a problem with the printer. Turn the printer off, then on.

    I can't find a move that throws this to happen.

    #2 problem: When the printer is turned on and slowed down, also at RANDOM times, the printer will "Ding" followed by the flashing light wireless. So what sounds like the cartridges are cleaned, then a sound like the charger spinning or the printhead full running followed from one side to the other, then ending with a "Ding" and then back to normal.

    When this happens, the wireless connection is disconnected and then reconnected. Also, this disables the "Scan to computer" function on all computers on the network and manually requires the reactivation of all.

    From what I can tell the printer restarts itself.

    It is plugged directly into the wall outlet, no surge protector.

    Technical support has already go through the stages of the print head, me up to the top of the chain and eventually replaced the printer with a new brand.

    THE NEW PRINTER STILL DOES THINGS AS PRECEDENT.

    This printer is connected wireless to router Netgear N900. My all current computers running Windows 7, all are on the same network and workgroup and all are running Mcafee Total Protection.

    If someone is or has experienced the same or similar problems, I could sure use help.

  • My iPad does not recognize not my Officejet 6500 has, unless I turn the printer off and then on again. Why?

    I recently changed my router from BT to Technicolor gateway provided by Utility warehouse.

    Previously, my iPad easily recognized my HP Officejet 6500 printer has (ethernet) but now this isn't unless I have turn the printer off then on again.

    Of course, it is a pain. How can I solve this problem?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    It seems that the new router may not support multicast or was not configured correctly.

    Networking Hello Zero Configuration Apple is the method of communication used by any Apple device and relies on IP multicast.

    Some routers does not support multicast or maybe this option is disabled by default.

    I wouyld recommend contacting the Technicolor gateway serice provider and check if the access point supports multicasting, or it may require updated firmware or the specific support configuration.

  • How to set the printer online and keep it online in vista?

    I use my laptop with vista on a network.  When I turn on the laptop sometimes printer says offline and I can't connect unless I have reinstall printer.  There is nothing wrong with my printer or a computer.  The problem is vista not reconnected to the printer.  My XP computer connects again everytime.  I read there was a fix for the problem, but can't find it to download.  I'm not sharing of printer, I connect to the printer directly via the wireless network.  The network is fine and sees the vista printer, but does not connect online

    Go to the Control Panel, open Printers, click right your printer, and then click Create a shortcut. The shortcut will be placed on your desktop. Open the printer shortcut and click the printer in the menu and uncheck the use printer offline if it is checked. You can drag to the taskbar where it is no longer accessible and remove a Desktop or keep both.

  • should I turn the printer off when you are not using it?

    you just buy new printer - HP envy 5530 - need to know if I need put it off when you are not using it or if it passes in mode "sleep"?  other printers I had went to sleep mode however cannot locate this answer in the FAQ - like entry - thanks ~ ) husband

    Welcome to the mgchandler forums,

    I saw your post on want to know if you should be powered down the printer or if it won't fall in the mode 'sleep'. My best advice would be to turn off the printer by the power button if it will not be used for a period of time, for example during the night. Regards the mode "standby", the printer goes into standby after 5, 10 or 15 minutes of inactivity.

    • To change the settings for sleep mode, go to the front screen of the printer and press settings (wrench)
    • Contact preferences
    • Press the arrow down and on Standby Mode when you see
    • You can now change the time of mode 5 to 10 to 15 minutes before

    I hope I helped answer your question!

  • Color Laserjet CP2025dn "turn the printer on" error

    Too often, I try to print documents (such as boarding cards and Word documents) and nothing prints. When I run the troubleshooter, it always says that the printer is turned off! The printer is still on. I have power down (both with the button, then with the power cord). I keep getting the error. I delete the docs pending and you try to reprint. Still getting the error. Updated firmware for the printer also.

    Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the printer using the control panel > printers and devices?

  • When I turning the printer off and then on power, he immediately tries to print a test page.

    HP Photosmart C3180 all-in-one
    Windows XP 32 bit
    no error message
    unaware of any change in system - color cartridge is empty, black is not

    The page is printing is an alignment page.  This will be printed after a cartridge is changed and can continue to print if the alignment is not successful.

    See here for more information.  Alignment requires the black part and cyan cartridge color to print correctly to alignment complete.

  • How can I configure my Windows Phone 7 for ePrint? I have the printer online and set up.

    Now how can I set the phone to eprint?  I tried to put the address of e-mail on my phone, but it does not recognize it as a "valid e-mail address.

    Any suggestions?  Very much appreciated.  Happy/Safe holidays to all )

    Hello Christopher715,

    Looks like the process you've tried is good, there may be a neglected detail.

    On your phone, have you tried to email from your printer ([email protected]), without adding it to your address book yet?

  • Alignment Page HP PSC1315 prints every time the printer is turned on

    It's VERY frustrating.  After installing a printer driver updated to my new Win7 system and installation new black ink cartridge in the printer dang prints the alignment Page, whenever I turn it on!  I have "lined up" it several times and yet HP insists to waste my (money for waste of ink and paper) green, even though I followed the software and the instructions on the page to test several times!  Help!  It is rather ironic, given my brand new printing software (wow that download was enormous: no doubt inflate more software) has a button how to be green at the top right!

    I've been a supporter of long standing of HP that buying the products of your printer for many years, but unless this is resolved soon, I'll go out and spend double what price this printer and return the money to your Kumite.  This is intolerable!  I do not think that your software help consider even this oversight, oh, but I see that I can click on a convenient button HP purchase!  Furthermore, I'm not some neophyte with computers, I built this pc and many others before it.

    signed... Frustrated!

    Hello

    Have you tried that?

    1 turn the printer off and wait ten seconds. Turn it back on.

    2. let the printer print test page.

    3. when the test page prints, unplug the USB cable that connects to the printer to your computer. Not turn off the printer and unplug the cable.

    4. place the test page to the glass of the scanner and press the SCAN button on the printer control panel. The indicator light flashes while the page is being analyzed.

    5 remove the test page when the indicator light stops flashing.

    6. turn the printer off and wait another ten seconds.  Now you can turn it back on it.

    It is no longer printing test pages?

    Now, you can reconnect the USB between PC and the printer cable.

    Please post your results.

    Kind regards

  • Vista and Color Laserjet 5 M reprints all when the printer is turned on?

    Vist and Color Laserjet 5 M reprints all when the printer is turned on?

    It is a new one on me. I installed the printer with a barrette SIMM Postscript so it would work even at all under Vista and now it prints well but insists on the fact that I have all re - print he has never seen a reason any whenever I turn the printer to print something again.

    XP he has never done that, but I've always had the document cannot print the error that I ignored as he did print correctly.

    Google has not really revealed anything?

    ?? Type response level 1 I was looking for... These printers are a full restart, test of memory and when it is off.

    But I think I solved it, spent some time on google and there was a suggestion on the spooler in vista, was something like clear keep printed documents or print spooling first, I went also to start printing after the last page. Who took care of a lot of it somehow. Not sure why the generic installation program would need to be changed here. Possible I did for me somehow when I was trying to get the thing to work with the PCL driver too.

    Then I noticed that whenever I turned on the printer it is printing a page of demo postscript, for some reason any, it is enabled by default in the SIMM option. Turn power off and now its not wasting so much paper now.

    So two things to look for in the computer and the printer.
