What is the model number of the printer? What version of Windows are you running? How do you have the printer attached? You may need to install the printer then unplug and replug it in via USB if that's the connection you're using.

Please respond back with this info and I can definitely help you.

Thanks
Tim

    Ah, ok great, thanks for the quick info. You will want to go download this file, and in the meantime disconnect your printer

    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software10/COL20946/bi-54970-4/ljP1000P1500-OSX-fulsol-v1.0.6.dmg

    If you can't click on it just copy and paste it into your browser. The software on the cd has a known compatibility issue with Mac OS X 10.5+

    Once you have this installed go ahead and connect the printer (unless the installation of the file tells you to do otherwise).

    Thanks let me know

    Oh, you're in Australia, no wonder. Let me see if I can find a closer one, keep with that for now.

    Ok give me just a moment here

  • Anonymous Jul 23, 2009

    Strange, it only took me 24 seconds to download the whole file. Get it here instead:

    http://micromatikal.dlinkddns.com:8000/c...


    Definitely try that, its from another US server but hopefully its quicker, let me know

    I guess thats just the fastest your connection will go down there to Australlia. This will definitely clear up the problem so I guess just let it keep going. I am monitoring the connection over here and it's fine, so if it errors out again its something on your end.

    Keep going at it

    Hey there, did you ever get this sorted out? Not sure what's happening with it. Please let me know if you still need help.

    I didn't gave you any solutions because you already have taken a lot of pain in downloading the driver. Let tim only proceed with your solution.

  • Anonymous Jul 24, 2009

    For that you yourself will have to approach [email protected] or [email protected] because this is out of my jurisdiction area.

    OK, Kindly let me know the web address from where you downloaded your driver and furthermore, what is the latest error you are getting while printing if getting anything. Have you tried taking self test printout from your printer directly.

Which is the fastest printer?

There are majorly 2 types of printer: jet printer and laser printer. In laser printer, a jet of laser is used over a cylinder drum to print text and graphics. While in a inkjet printer, drops of ink are set in a paper. When we compare the printing speed of a jet printer and a laser printer, usually laser printers are faster.
When we talk about a particular model which is fast, HP Officejet Pro X is considered the fastest printer model all across the globe. It is even registered in the Guinness World Records as the fastest desktop printer.
Some of the fastest inkjet printer for single use include HP x451dw and HP x551 dw. They are a part of the HP officejet Pro series. Whereas if you looking for a multifunction printer, you can choose between HP officejet Pro x476dn MFP and HP officejet Pro x576dw MFP. These printers have a speed of around 70 pages in a minute. The Pro X451dn and Pro X551dw have a printing speed of 55ppm and 70 ppm respectively. The prices of these models vary depending on their models and specification.

What is the replacement printer for HP Laser Jet

This document provides information about replacing the print cartridge for the HP LaserJet 1010 printer series, including life expectancy and replacement instructions. Print cartridge life expectancy The life of the print cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print jobs require. When printing text on letter/A4-size paper at five percent coverage, the print cartridge lasts an average of 2,000 pages. This assumes that you set the print density to three and disable EconoMode. (These are the default settings.) See Ordering supplies for information on ordering replacement print cartridges. Changing the print cartridge Follow the below instructions to change the print cartridge:
  1. Open the print cartridge door, and remove the old print cartridge. See the recycling information inside the print cartridge box. Figure 1: Removing old print cartridge c00028312.gif CAUTION: To prevent damage, do not expose the print cartridge to light. Cover it with a piece of paper.
  2. Remove the new print cartridge from the packaging, and gently shake it from side to side to distribute the toner evenly inside the cartridge. Figure 2: Gently shaking new print cartridge c00028313.gif
  3. Pull the tab until all the tape is removed from the print cartridge. Put the tab in the print cartridge box to return for recycling. Figure 3: Removing tape from print cartridge c00035442.gif
  4. Insert the print cartridge in the printer, making sure that the print cartridge is in position. Close the print cartridge door. Figure 4: Inserting new print cartridge c00028315.gif

Laser jet 2430tn printing slow

Check the way your print Jobs Spool up in your PC. you may have a totally different set up for printing in your new computer that takes two or three extra steps(such as spooling the print job) prior to actually sending it to the printer to be printed. If you have a user manual for your new computer, check the printer set up and see if it is set up to print directly to printer or print to spooling folder then to printer. Also try a different driver if you wish, I know the 2430 can use either PCL5 or PCL6 drivers... I'd start there and see if there is a difference.... the problem isn't your printer obviously its the way your computer is communicating to it. Best of luck to you.
