the printer's rollers began rolling, and the darn thing printed! By now, the queue was "paused" (as it often becomes, I suppose correctly, when the printer cannot be reached). After about 25 Mississippies, I turned it back on. The queue said it was looking for the printer. The USB queue showed up immediately in the printer list of the Print & Fax SysPref pane.īut, the printer still did not wake from its "I have my green telltale on" state. Then it occurred to me that I have not tried connecting it directly to my Mac, via USB. In desperation, I even deleted the /Library/Printers/hp/ folder (which necessitated restarting and then deleting, since two files were busy) and reinstalled the "HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers2.2" update from Apple.

Glancing back at the printer queue, the job vanished.ĥ. The red telltale turned off, and the green telltale turned on, with the printer peaceful as a lamb.Ĥ. I pressed the red X button, the red telltale flashed some 10-15 times, and. By the time I was putting paper in the tray, the red telltale light was on, and the rollers had stopped and had not resumed rolling when the paper was in the tray.ģ. I sent a document to print this morning, the printer queue App started up, the printer's rollers began rolling - and then I realized that there was no paper in the printer.Ģ. However, I have just spent about three hours with my HP LJ P1006 (served by my TimeCapsule, to which it is connected by USB) that stopped printing-Īgain, now with Apple's 2.2-updated printer software! This time, I have the culprit, and it is the printer itself:ġ.
