Printing To Ubuntu USB Connected Printer
May 5, 2011
Currently my partner using XP can print to my Epson Stylus Photo R265 printer. This printer is connected via http://192.168.1.2:631 and will print whenever she wishes to do so. I can be working with Ubuntu and this is not a problem. When I attempt to print from Windows 7 by adding the printer and using the same address I failed miserably to establish any connection.
Fortunately I dual boot seven and Ubuntu and access from her laptop can be made as it is automatically linked to my PC. This can be a bit of a problem if I am working with Ubuntu as so far printing can only be done between both seven OS. My preference would be to have printing available via my USB connected printer using both Ubuntu and Windows 7 as this will let us work in harmony.

I would just like to say, I am not just posting this question anyhow. I have read around and I haven't found any solution to my problem, thus I have resorted in opening a new thread.So here is the prob:I have a Windows 7 Starter Edition netbook which is connected to a WRT54GL Wireless-G Router. This router is connected via hard wire to my Windows Vista Desktop and that is how the desktop has access to the internet. The netbook is accessing the internet the very same Router via Wi-Fi. The Printer (HP DeskJet 940c) is connected and installed on the Windows Vista Desktop and is functioning. It prints when I give it commands from the desktop. I have set the printer sharing options 'on' in the Networks and Sharing Center as well as haven't kept a sharing password (its open and unprotected). This is as far as I have gotten. My next challenge is, how can I print from the Windows 7 Starter Edition netbook on my HP Deskjet 940c via the Router.I would be very grateful if someone can explain to me in a very noob-ish way as I am not a techie. If someone could send me a video link or so.

System is HP desktop running W7-64 bit. Printer is HP Photosmart 7350, old but working perfectly until 2 days ago. Driver is Deskjet 5550 (closest one for this printer).
I've reinstalled the driver, plugged and unplugged the printer, and tried to print from different programs. As soon as the print button is selected the error condition shows in the Devices & Printers section. This happens whether the printer is turned on or not.
What can I do to get the printer running again?

I have a desktop computer and a laptop at home. The desktop is connected via CAT5 to the modem. The laptop is connected to the same modem and the same network, but via a wireless signal. Both desktop and laptop are Windows 7 Home Premium x64. Both desktop and laptop belong to the same homegroup/workgroup. It is possible to see shared files between the computers no problem. File sharing is enabled on both computers and works normally.So far, so good. However, I am unable to print from my laptop in a very peculiar way. I'll simply say what goes on (rather than attempt to analyse) so you can judge for yourself:When I print from the desktop: Print job goes into print queue. I am able to see the document in the print queue, on both the desktop and laptop (i.e. Laptop detects the correct printer and sees there's a document queued). Document prints as expected, and disappears from queue.When I print from the laptop: Print job goes into print queue on laptop only - Only the laptop sees the document in the print queue, desktop does not see it at all. After some time (usually ~10 seconds per page) the document disappears from the queue, as if it was printed normally. However, the desktop never registers the document in the print queue, and most importantly the printer never prints.
- Is this a software issue with Office 2003 (what I use)? Not as far as I can tell, printing PDFs and from websites also don't work on the laptop.
- Could it be that the printer you added to your laptop isn't recognised as being the same printer? I doubt this, because when I print a document on my desktop but check the print queue on my laptop, the document is present.
- What kind printer do you have? HP Deskjet F2180.
- Is your network preventing the two computers from connecting to each other? I don't think so, because file sharing is on for both, works normally on both machines, and I can see the desktop's print queue from the laptop.

From time to time when I go to print something in Word 2003 it prints two pages per sheet. When I check "page setup" it's somehow automatically set itself to "2 pages per sheet" and I have to reset it to "normal".Is there some way I can stop this from happening.

I have two computers wired to a router, both windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit. I have an HP 7580 printer wired to the router. One computer prints just fine. The other will print when the printer is first added, then it will stop printing after awhile. Deleting the printer and re-adding it solves the problem for a short while.

The print preview shows the text in an email message and Word document, but my HP 1215 printer is only printing the hyperlinks. This problem arose after trying to print a Word document that I created, which had corrupted content within it.I have tried Microsoft printer fix without result. I have searched the printer properties but cannot find any property which might have caused this problem.

I've installed the printer software on my laptop and successfully tested the ability to print when connected via USB. I also added the computer as a wireless connection. When I try to print wirelessly, nothing happens. The document just sits in the queue.I do not currently have the printer hooked up to anything but power. Am I wrong in thinking I should be able to print without a computer attached to the printer? If not, how can I troubleshoot this? Printer is HP c3180 AIO and laptop is HP Pavilion DV6.

I click on Devices and Printers. I right-click my Printer, then click Printing Preferences (it's a network printer). I change the Original Size to A4, then click apply. When I try to print, the Original Size is wrong! When I go back to my printer's preferences, my change is not there anymore.

I have a Windows 7 x64 RC.7100 build installed and have configured my HP printer using Vista x64 drivers, it prints locally just fine. However I tried to setup printer sharing with my x32 Windows XP laptop and have an issue that is really a pain. Whenever I print from the XP machine I get the print job in the queue on the Win 7 machine, but it just says printing for an infinite amount of time. I have to either restart my Windows 7 machine or go into Services and Print Spooling and Restart Service for the print job to complete. I found a similar error/problem with Vista but all of the suggestions did not help. The only thing I can think of is that there is some driver incompatibility, but HP states on their website that they wont have "official drivers" for Windows 7 until Oct 22.

Ive got the "retail" version of Windows 7 pro running on my 2 computers here at work, one of which is a laptop that is also used on the mall's free wireless network. When we plug in via Ethernet and rejoin the home-group, it automatically picks the shared printer back up, but when we try to print it stalls, and we have to reboot the back office computer to get it printing.
Tried powering the laptop off and back on with the Ethernet attached, still same result.
As smart as you guys are here, I know someone will have the correct answer, cause I'm stumped.

I have a Canon printer which prints coloured dots in grayscale mode. I selected all the options which are related to this problem and nothing solved the problem....I found out that if i check the duplex option this problem occurs and if i don't select this option the coloured dots don't appear in grayscale mode. Can this problem came from the Windows driver or Windows print wizard...? I have the Canon driver installed and i have Windows 7

I have recently installed Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit and when I print anything on my Lexmark E120 laser printer and select Two-Sided printing, it prints out instructions for doing this. As I already know how to use my printer, I would like to stop it printing out instructions and wasting paper.

My HP OfficeJet 6500 is only using the black cartridge and not the color cartridges, which are brand new and I performed a head cleaning.The issue appears to be at the printer level and not from the PC, since even a copy in color will use only the Black cartridge.

I am running windows 7 Enterprise on my office laptops. They are connected to our lan via CAT 6 cables and a 100 Mb/s Switch. One of our central laptop has our printer connected via USB port. Printer model- Canon LBP 2900B LASER SHOT LBP2900B. Now the problem is, Whenever we send a print command via any of the networked machines, it takes Loooonnggg 2~3 minutes to start printing... The printing speed is normal once it starts, but "Commencement" lag is annoying. However, the printing starts instantaneously on the machine to which the printer is physically connected. The LAN is pretty healthy and gives consistent data speeds of 11~12 MB/s
I have already performed these steps on ALL machines:
1> Uninstall and re-install printer drivers
2> Update anti-Virus and Run total scans
3> Run defragment on HDDs
4> Ran a Scan disk for HDDs

I downloaded from the HP site the drivers for the HP 6480 printer for Window 7. However the printer does not print. When I try a test page, it comes through the printer, but no print is on the page. The window on the printer shows what looks like two ? Marks above the two icons that looks like tear drops. I can't get rid of the ?.
