• How youprint a test page, I get only colors Blue/gray without red or yellow

  new printer and ink, but do not print red or yellow

  You can print a test page from Windows from printers and faxes, right click on your printer icon, selecting Properties.  There is a 'Print Page of Test' button under the general tab of the Properties dialog box.

  Many printers can also generate a test page for their controls on the front panel.  Read the User Guide.

  In general, the failure to print certain colors means that something is wrong with the print head or ink cartridge (depending on the printer).  Refer to troubleshooting in the user's Guide for your printer.

  If you can't resolve it with the suggestions in the Guide, and this is a new printer, I would take it back.

• HP Officejet Pro 6830: 6830 windows 8 8.1 cannot print from the windows test page

  When it is connected to 'own' windows - it prints OK.

  When it is connected to the windows where are the normal software like office, autocad, adobe and so those installed, the printer does not print anything - test page from printer properties is the first problem that means...

  Only "free software priter" is able to print something (test pages and so one) also print doctor and installation wizzard prints what it can, but not possible 'to normal windows print"... :-(

  It is tested on:

  Software for laptop - Win 8 Pro - installed - no. PRINT

  Surface 3 Pro - Win 8.1 - software installed - no. PRINT

  Laptop - 8.1 Pro - clean shop - PRINTING POSSIBLE Win (after installation of the driver full download - in a test with autopilot installed it does not print)

  Virtual - Win 7 Ultimate - installed software - PRINTING POSSIBLE

  (installed software means office, autocad, adobe,...)

  It seems that some components of system installed with one software disables printing from windows.

  When looked at open before printing to the printer - it shows the print job (which is not printed) for 0.1 second and nothing is displayed - also when the printer is paused - it shows the work and it is deleted immediately - left must work until the printer not suspended...

  It is not a firewall issue (tested), it has been tested on: USB, WiFi, LAN. No way to print something from windows 8 and upwards.

  seems that it has something with the option run the program as administrator.

  tested on some programs - autocad, adobe, word excel,... - when run as administrator it prints OK.

  If you do not have the option in the context menu try to hold Shift before made a - right click and run as admin

  It's odd - some print settings are transferred with work, for example, winword impression (office) without admin - PDF Factory (virtual printer) - rights and then to the physical printer 6830 - he can't be printed to PDF Factory

  But if you start winword as an administrator - so you can print directly or through PDF Factory hassle

  ---------------------------------------------------------

  Personally, I see this as a big mistake by Microsoft - that something like this can happen - simple direct printing is not possible after you have connected the printer... :-(:-(:-(

• 1025nw Jam in Drum area - attention LED still flashes and cannot print the test page

  My Laserjet PRO CP1025nw is only 3 weeks. Everything was normal until I met a paper jam today. I removed the damaged document by opening the back cover and the piece of paper remaining from the feeder. But still, printer flashes driving caution.

  I turned the printer off and then back on and tried the instructions in the user manual to clear paper jams. When I turn on the printer, all lights are turning ON one (as the normal boot sequence) and then warning led flashes. I couldn't hear any engine wheelchair or his mechanics during this process. Web server page printer (with wifi) showed the status of the printer as "jam in the drum area.  I removed and re-inserted Imaging drum by following the instructions to replace the imaging drum.

  What I see after turning on th eprinter is just attention light flashing and I can't even print a test page. I don't hear any rotation of the engine sound of the printer. Pleas help me out of this problem.

  I solved the problem myself. Although I couldn't find any piece of paper left by normal inspection of the outside of the printer, I removed the Assembly / separation and roll pick-up from the input tray to find a small piece of paper remaining on the paper sensor flag. Very hard or literally impossible to find something in this place by the normal health check.

  To eliminate the epickup roll pre-assembled under th eprinter th, I removed the right side panel and the left side panel for th eprinter. I was happy to see the piece of paper that has ruined my day quiete. Deleted and everything set up as before and successfully took a test page print.

  Thank you for repair of HP, which led me to get inside the printer.

• HP Pro Plus 6800: error 0 x, 00000057 wireless and wireless Direct properties of the Windows Control Panel printer - print a Test Page

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite of Win7 64 bit and a HP 8600 Pro Plus,
  update firmware and drivers about 2 weeks for the 8600 was a
  a long time I have been updated, which is connected wireless has decided to
  Direct to print Wireless Setup once the program installation, I tried to do a windows
  Print the Test Page in the printer property Panel, somewhat normal for
  set up a printer

  Under the connection of the conciergerie, I got the error message 0 x 00000057
  Under wireless direct printing, I got the same error 0 x 00000057

  After spending the time to check the settings, connections and asking
  Why? I decided to see that if I could print the docs, I print a PDF file,
  Notepad and Word documents in each application under the two
  configurations without problem.

  Under the wireless connection, I started the Web Services module
  and was able to make the impression within the Web Services Test page
  module without problem could not yet do the printing Test Page
  in the printer properties panel.

  I ran Print and Scan doctor who, to my surprise mentioned
  a conflict of Driver, I welcomed this program to uninstall the driver,
  went looking upward for the driver and the same driver was so done
  No download but to remove the driver and reinstalled the driver.
  Always error message here.

  I'm now tempted to delete a direct print wireless and see
  What happens if the error disappears, if she does not unstall all
  associated with the printer and do a clean reinstall. In case of emergency
  is there an alternative to the use of the Web Service module to the setting
  When not connected to the wireless network?

  I think that the Panel of the printer would do this (I'll watch this later

  spend enough time on it), or do I need to run Web Services to

  direct wireless installation, just think about this, otherwise I'll shoot

  a usb cable.  Maybe if I install Direct wireless on the printer control panel

  the message will disappear as the installation of the printer program, not software

  on the laptop?

  It is a minor problem since I can still print but question why!

  See other issues about this error message I thought

  spend my experience with this error.

  Always had a number of things to think and try, once again.

  If your getting this error message I would suggest trying a test page printed

  within the module of Web Service to see if the message developed.

  Could not back the driver so I removed the printer driver

  by deleting.

  19/07/2011 Date print driver
  Print driver version 26.0.0.0

  and removed software in Add and Remove software Hp also had to turn

  Reinstalled printer/software form the CD supplied with the printer, the

  Driver date is 08/12/2009 Ver.9.0.0

  No more error in configuration.

  is the answer to the error message 0 x 00000057 or 0x00000xx

  associated with the driver? Or just the 0 x 00000057?

  Could not find a list of drivers between the driver and

  You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.

  (a) open administrative tools by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Administrative Tools.

  (b) double click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  (c) right click on the print spooler service, and then click Properties.

  (d) under the tab general , next to Startup type, make sure thatAutomatic is selected.

  (e) if the service is not already running, under Service status, click pie Sand then clickOK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

• Print the Test Page

  Hello

  I'll put up my CP1252n Color LaserJet.  Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.

  Am using the A4 papers and changed all the settings of the printer to use this paper size.  Under the Windows printer properties, there is a Test Page print.  However, this page is printed with the background a few missing lines.  Are there settings that I need to ensure that nothing will be lost when printing from other programs?

  None of the suggestions from HP worked, i.e. software Reinstall, turn off printer etc..

  Thanks for your suggestions.

  Is this really a CP1525n?  If so, it is normal that the bottom of the Windows test page is cut down.  Happened to me with a paper size.  I filed a bug on this in the beta version and I was told that it would not be fixed.  I did have problems with the pages generated by the user being truncated.

  Original title: Printer Test Page

  Top of page one prints black, fading orange print for the rest. Print content is readable and accurate.

  Rohit Nagpal: thank you.

  The printer is HP Deskjet 2050 J501.

  I changed from 81/2 X 11 to 4 x 6 photos - the first digital photo (B & W) was normal (all black). The second printing has been described, first black inches, then orange rest. I adjusted the printer to 81/2 x 11, the first impression has been described. I asked for assistance.

  I read your message and proceeded to print a test B & W 8 x 11 page. It was OK! The second test page is OK too.

  I don't know what I did to solve the problem, except that the computer was shut down for two days. Thank you again for your help.           George Hutson

  Third page OK! I'm going to print your first page, I have to these references.
