SOURCE: How do you turn off sleep mode on the HP OfficeJet...
This no doubt violated the warantee, but I got tired of turning the printer around and unplugging the power cord etc.
So I got a cord switch I had (Ace hardware 31089, others will not doubt work) and installed it in the power cord per directions.
Now it is easy to reach behind printer and cycle the power with the power cord switch and thus wake up the printer.
This is a free Mac OS X driver installer package for the HP Officejet 4500 wireless all-in-one printer.
Enjoy the convenience of wireless connectivity with the Officejet 4500 wireless all-in-one printer. You'll be able to print, copy, scan, and fax all from one device, plus print at speeds as fast as 28 pages per minute in black and 22 in color. And with tje Officejet inks, you'll get professional-quality color printing at a low cost per page.
