  • Unable to print on a HP printer, documents stuck in the queue

    OK, so I have a HP Deskjet 1000 printer. And I am trying to print a Word from my other computer document, but it does not work. I checked the "see what's printing' for this printer on the computer on which I wanted to print from, and it shows a bunch of documents in the print queue. I tried to cancel or restart them, but nothing happens. I just get "error processing command." I already checked the C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS, but there nothing in it. I already deleted the printer and re-inserted and you download the drivers again. Unable to print all right, but I still have computers (I have two). On the computer where the printer is, if I try to print something, nothing happens, no documents in its queue. But the other computer, it just keeps adding more documents in the queue and I can't do anything. I use Windows 7 Home Premium on two of them.

    Edit 1: I was able to successfully complete the queue from here: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/how-

    But now the problem is when I go to MS Word and go to file > print, it says ' Paper Out: 1 document waiting '. I wonder if this is what is causing the problem. I use a HP Deskjet 1000. And then if I try to print something from the computer with the printer, the print job will appear and then disappear quickly.

    Edit 2: Ok, I've solved this by removing the printer from devices and printers. When I added this return, he installed a driver that wasn't there and ended. Then I tried to print something and he actually got the print job. Now the question is when I push the power button and ensuring that it catches the paper, it is not actually print out what I wanted to print. Also, I am trying to install the drivers for the printer, and it says "plug the square end of the USB cable to the back of the printer and the flat end of the cable to a USB port available on this computer. Well, I connected physically, but it's not detect it. The drivers are for Deskjet 1000 J110.

    I see that you get a secure page and that you are unable to print black on your HP Photosmart 5520 e-all-in-one printer. I'd be happy to help you with this.

    I like that you get the login screen for the Built-in Web server for the printer. Is this correct? This seems to indicate that someone has put a username and password on the printer, for security reasons. If you don't know what are the connection information, the only way to remove this is to do a factory reset on the device. I can send you this information in a private message. In the forum next to your handle name simply click on the envelope to see.

    That being said, I would like to start here. Please, try the steps in this guide, the printer prints blank Page or fact not printing black or color ink for HP Photosmart 5520 and Deskjet Ink Advantage 5520 series e-all-in-one printer.

    If you have completed all the above steps and your product still has a problem, the printer service.

    First, check your product warranty to check your warranty printer status and then go to contact HP support to find an authorized dealer or to schedule a repair.

    Hi Ron,

    1. how many printers is connected to the computer?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    3. what happens when you try to change printer (LPT1) port

    Method 1

    See the link below and run them the fixit tool available, check if it helps.

    Problems printing and printing errors

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/printing_problems/en-us?EntryPoint=lightbox

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you restart the computer the print spooler service and check if it works.

    A print spooler is a system service that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print.

    To change or restart the print spooler service

    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.

  • I have a print job stuck in the queue.

    HP Photosmart C5180 all-in-One printer connected to a PC running Windows7. I have a print job in the queue. This morning, my wife tried to run a print job - ever printed and she just move on to other tasks. About an hour ago, I tried to print a document and nothing happened I went to the control panel and access the queue for printer on the PC and saw that there were three tasks in the queue. Cancelled the first two, no problem. One who went this morning shows the status of "delete." However, nothing happens. I am now unable to print anything. Is there any other way to clear the queue outside the normal procedure using the PC?

    Hi dancer.

    Short and simple:

    Control Panel > display icon > Administrative Tools > Services > click on "name" to sort this column > scroll down and look for the print spooler > Select Print Spooler > click on restart the service

    This could be a workaround in the sense that, IF the print queue of the printer has an underlying issue that is causing the print spooler to stall, the problem could come back.  However, bonded labour could have been a fluke, in any event, a "a matter of time."

    Original title: first page of multiple page document will print.

    Computer brand new with Windows 8.  Printer multifunction Brother MFC j410w 3 years.  Printer worked perfectly on the old computer.

  • Unable to print black and white with an empty cartridge

    My printer will not print not black-and-white, except when a color cartridge is replaced empty.

    How can I print black with an empty color in place cartridge?

    Some IIC (individual ink cartridge) printers have print heads that require ink available for periodic maintenance tasks. This avoids problems with hooves in the print head and the bad print quality. The following printers are unable to print when a cartridge is empty, even if the other cartridges.

    If one or more color ink cartridges are low but not empty and you want to minimize the use of color ink, you can change the settings in the HP software to print in black ink only (grey levels). Even if you change the print settings to print in black ink only, the other ink cartridges still have ink in them so that the printer to print.

    If you choose to print in black ink only, the printer always uses small amounts of ink from all cartridges for occasional maintenance tasks. HP recommends to replace the low ink cartridges in order to avoid any interruption in printing.

    Hello

    Try the following.

    From the desktop, hold down the Windows key and press R.  In the run window, type services.msc and press to enter.  Scroll down to the print spooler service, right click and select Properties, then click the Stop button.  Now search for C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS, then delete the work inside this folder - you may need to click a command prompt to get the authority to open the PRINTERS folder.

    Restart the computer and you should find that the document has been deleted.

  • Hp6700: Unable to print from my ipad

    Recently changed internet service providers and now I am unable to print from my iPad to my wireless printer.  My iPhone works, and the computer works, but cannot print anything on my iPad.

    Hello

    Sorry to hear that you are experiencing printing problems.

    Try to restart your apple device - it's a simple solution that sometimes allows to restore the connection to the printer.

    Other things to check would be that there has been no recent changes to the wifi password and the password for wifi on the ipad has been updated.

    When I try to print emails, I have a message "Unable to print no doubt caused by popup blocker, try again" but still cannot print. How can I get rid of this?

    Ian,

    When you want to print, what happens when you press on and hold the Ctrl key? By pressing the Ctrl will usually allow the popup which would be blocked, to happen.

    Press in and hold the Ctrl key, then click on your was to print.
