  • HP Envy 5540: Printer Hp Envy 5540 randomly printed the Network Configuration Page

    Hello!

    I bought this printer about a month ago. Set up the connection to the printer wireless with my wifi, and my understanding is that the printer is protected like my wifi and use the same password in order to print something. I kept my printer connected and 'standby mode' since I put in place. The night last at about 23:00 when I was in bed, the printer turned on randomly and printed a "wireless network configuration page" that has had a lot of information, including the IP address and listing my name wifi as well as the names of my neighbors wifi in the surrounding apartments.

    I'm trying to understand why this printed, because I certainly did not do. Anyone have access to my wifi, or has someone may simply try to print something and selected my printer as it should appear on the "list available connections on the computer of anyone, given that the printer is turned on? How could they print this sheet of network configuration if my printer is password protected?

    I'm mostly concerned about someone who has access to my internet if they could print this page somehow, but maybe it happened just when they tried to connect to it, and it did not work while trying to fix MY printer?

    I would appreciate any idea on the issue.

    Thank you!

    Hi @printerprob5540,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I saw your post on how your HP Envy 5540 randomly print a Network Configuration Page. I'm happy to help with this problem!

    I find it very strange considering the only way to print the Network Configuration Page, AFAIK, is with the following steps:

    • Make sure that there are size A4 or US Letter, unused, plain paper in the feeder.
    • On the printer Panel, drag the screen to the left and then press Setup.
    • Touch tools.
    • Drag upward on the screen and then tap Network Configuration report.
    • A Network Configuration Page prints up to three pages of information.

  • Why can I print my email in Windows Live Mail?

    Why can I print my email in Windows Live Mail? The printer icon does not even save a print request. Is it because of IE10? I have to copy and paste emails in Notepad to print? Time to return to IE9?

    Hello

    -Is this problem specific to Windows Live Mail? Can be printed on different Web pages?

    This problem may occur for one or more of the following scenarios:

    Scenario 1: Your video card or video driver is damaged or outdated. Note Outdated or corrupted printer drivers can also cause script errors when printing from Internet Explorer
    Scenario 2: You don't have printer permissions assigned
    Scenario 3: Protected Mode is enabled for the web page Internet safety zone
    Scenario 4: There is a problem with temporary folders on your user account and the low folder under the location of % TEMP % has been removed.

    I suggest you to refer to the help article and check if it helps:

  • Why my HP printer does not print gibberish when I try to print information from this forum?

    Why my HP printer prints on gibberish when I try to print information from this forum and how do I fix this?

    Hi there dafoster,

    I recommend trying another web browser to print for beginners, that the issue could be the browser.

    If this does not help, I would uninstall the printer driver and put it back.

    Here are links to help with uninstalling: uninstalling the printer software

    Reinstall: e-all-in-one printer, HP Photosmart 7525 drivers

    Make sure that you restart your computer after uninstalling.

    I hope this helps!

  • HP officejet pro 8600 more random print the unreadable text

    Hello

    I have a problem with a newly acquired HP officejet pro 8600 N911g. When you print the document, some pages are filled with unreadable text instead of the original text (e.g. ' eft! bdujtop! dpssf-wcy TPQ! QSF"). It happens whenever I have print the same document, and sometimes on a few lines of certain pages.

    When the same issue occur on the same page, that's exactly the same gibberish (so it isn't random text).

    Here is an example of an impression goes wrong in the middle of a page.

    The printer is plugged in and the PC is wireless.

    I tried to launch HP print and scan of the doctor, he did not find any problem.

    He tried to print with another PC, same problem happened. My OS is Windows XP with SP2 32 b.

    The printer model number is N911g, the product number is CM750A and the number is 22241.

    Any advice would be helpful.

    Thanks in advance.

    Normally, this means that there is a problem with the radio wireless on the router. It may work fine for everything else for now, but it could be losing signal slowly, that would not be noticed by most of the things until the signal was almost gone. Signals of printing and scanning signal, for some strange reason, I've never even had explained to me, get back on it lose everything first and suffer the worst. I try to search for the firmware updates that may be available for your router, as it may just be a firmware issue that causes a light signal lose. If that does not resolve the problem, I would look in get a new wireless router.

    I use the printer wirelessly with Windows 7.  I made sure of drivers are updated.

    Hi worddiva (Nancy),.

    Thanks for the quick response!

    I suspect it is a setting in the browser you are using. If you use Internet Explorer, take a look at this print Web pages: frequently asked questions the document and take a quick look at the steps below the why is my text so small when I print? section.

    If you use another browser, or do not help, please just come back to me with any other relevant details and I'll see what I can find
