PSC1410 is stuck "ON" not communicating with the computer
I've printed several documents in a raw using FastDraft mode.
After few pages, the printer stop working (ON light is on). I can not turn it OFF (no response from the PSC1410).
Unplug it and reconnect does not make things better. same for computer reset/power OFF.

* Brand and model for specific solution.
* It's probably stuck in error mode. Looking for ink, cartridge level, ID of ink cartridge, communications issues, etc.
* Open your printer control panel on computer to monitor status.
* Stand alone wireless printers will cycle through it's checks and flash ready or error report (by flashing certain lights) you will need to check paperwork for error report.
* Note that with new models(especially cheap units) They tend to take a Long time to process prints and print out. Many render the document to a printer format then print. Copies have to render for each copy.
* I find it faster to render and print one original. Then use the printer's "scan" and "copy" mode as it will not use the render process. Scanning is faster and only done once per "Batch".

It sounds like the message to me that the printer and the pc are not communicating very well and when you went to print your 54 page document your printer could not handle such a big file there is a communication error between them both. have you updated your printer drivers ? have you run a virus scan on the document ? you might have a virus in one of the drivers for your printer ! what I would do is uninstall your printer from your pc go to add & remove programs remove your printer and then go to the HP website and fully download your software again for your printer when you go on to the HP website type in your printer model number and ask for a set up disk for your printer so just type in instalation disk for
HP Deskjet F390 it will cost you nothing this website will make sure you get everything you need to fully install your drivers back into your pc and any updates that you are missing hope that helps
Cheers
Check that the printer is properly installed on the server and the correct options set for the printer driver. It may be necessary to use raw mode. This is so when Windows machines print through a linix server. The server and the sending computer must agree on the format in which print files are sent. In your case you need to purge the print job list before any doing anything else.
When you print from the Microsoft Word and while printing you change the Printer Properties and Print Quality to FastDraft
Everytime you close the window the setting gets reset and again when you start, you have to do the settings.
The Solution you are looking out is
Go to Start >> Control Panel >> Printer and Faxes
There you choose the your Default Printer HP 1610 >> Right Click
and Click Properties
Then you choose Printing Preferences and Make Choose FastDraft
This setting will remain as your default setting now
So whne you have to Print Normal Mode
You need to change the Properties from Microsoft Word.
and it will reset everytime you close MS Word.
Cause your Default setting then is "FastDraft"
You might be printing in a different mode...you can see it in the printing preferences tab(fastdraft, fastnormal, normal and best quality )... or are you directly connected to the printer? or in a LAN? try using a different usb port...
1. Clear the print queue, and if there are jobs that won't delete, reboot the computer.
2. Now clear the jobs on the printer (cancel job button) until the status light turns green.
3. Put a piece of paper in the manual feed tray on the front.
4. Print a test page.
If the test page prints to the paper in the manual feed tray, then it is set as the default tray. Go into the printer settings and change it to "auto" or tray 1. If the test page prints to tray 1, but the original document you tried to print (when it got stuck) still won't print, cancel the job. Now, again, put paper in the manual feed tray. Try to print the document again and if it pulls from there, go into page setup of your document and change the setting from "manual" to "auto" or tray 1. Clear the job again (if it's stuck) and you should be able to print again. Hope this helps. This is one of the most common solutions - it happens a lot, especially with documents that are emailed from other people and once they get stuck in the queue, nothing will print (except the test pages directly from the printer, like you describe).
Cartridges may give a very slow printing if internally damaged, or : When using colored paper in the all-in-one, printing or copying is slow.This issue is a result of the automatic paper type sensor misreading
the colored paper as photo paper. The print out takes longer because
the unit is printing in Best mode instead of Normal mode.
