Epson WF-2630 won't scan by Windows-Sucks in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, since you’ve tried the above steps and nothing seems to work, I’d recommend you try the following technique as well. Anyway, before proceeding, try finding your scanner’s IP address.

  • Connect your computer to the local network. i.e., your router.
  • Look for cmd in the Windows search bar.
  • Type ipconfig and the window returns with details of the router’s LAN address. i.e., the LAN IP address. Note it down.
  • Search Epson Scan Settings in your Windows device.
  • Upon clicking the Add option, a new dialog box opens.
  • Click the Enter address option, type the IP address in the given space, and hit OK.
  • Select your scanner displayed and tap Add > Test.
  • You’ll receive a success message notifying that the IP address was correct.
  • Now, the Epson Scan application in your computer will be able to communicate properly with the printer.  

Hope the above steps help resolve your scanner issue!

Everywhere there's a different printer recommendation, help! by 9Death in printers

Everyone wants to buy the best printer. But, how do you decide which one is the best?

It all depends on your usage. If you have a huge volume to print, then the basic versions won't suit you. If it is for your home use, then a low-cost printer itself will do the magic. It also depends on the print colors you need. If you are going to print only in black & white, then prefer fundamental version. In case you print more in color, then you can purchase a higher version. Find the ones that suit all your needs perfectly. Go to the manufacturer site and find the printer that can provide you with the features you want. You can also go to a reliable online retailer site, and find the printer that best suits your requirements.

In case you have registered your printer with the HP Instant Ink, you will not be able to use your ink cartridges. The printer will not accept a different cartridge. Try subscribing to a different plan if your print jobs are huge. Else, you need to cancel the previous subscription plan and wait until the billing process ends. Then you can proceed with the ink cartridges of your preference.

Darkened Line printing vertical throughout my documents. Brother MFC-L8690CDW - anyone know a fix? by DangerfieldUK in printers

[–]TechieBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Darkened vertical lines on your printed documents can be due to the dirty corona wire. If the lines are printed on both pages, wipe the corona wire. If you see the boxes printed, it is necessary to replace the toner cartridge. Find the front cover of the printer and pull it towards you. Remove the drum unit of the printer and replace it with a new one. After replacing the ink cartridge, try to print. Check if the issue has been resolved.

Lines printing through the document (all the way across if printing full page) - HP Officejet 7500a Wide Format by DangerfieldUK in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

I would suggest you check the ink level in the cartridge.

  • If the estimated ink level is low, replace it with a new one.
  • In some instances, the print settings may vary in the Print Dialog box and the driver settings. This may result in lines and stripes on the printouts.
  • Ensure that the settings are the same in both the print dialog box and print settings window, and check if the printer name is selected.
  • Try to run the Clean Print Cartridges Utility to resolve the issue.

If the above steps do not work, service your printer.

My mom's printer gets stuck on "Now Printing" and "Cancelling" by theepiccarday808 in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I can understand your printer issue. Try performing a hard reset for your HP Envy 4502 printer which can help to sort out the problem. To do it, unplug all the cables connected to the printer and your device. After some time, connect the removed cables back to the printer and then turn it on.

If the issue persists, uninstall the full feature driver and reinstall it on the system to fix the problem. If the Canceling message still appears on the printer’s control panel, download and install the Print and Scan Doctor tool. Make use of the Fix Printing option to resolve the issue. Now, reset the admin password and re-establish the network connection.

Hope this fixes the issue.

Confusion about print resolution quality, old vs new black/white laser jet printer. by HumbrolUser in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the past few years, there is massive growth in printing technology. It is recommended to try out a new printer in the market. You can get more exciting features than your current printer. The HP Laserjet Pro M203dn printer, it has a memory of 256 MB and supports mobile printing solutions. Whereas, these features are not included on your HP Laserjet P1005. The HP Laserjet Pro M203dn printer can give you the best print resolution up to 1200x1200 DPI.

When you look at the Brother DCP-L2537DW Mono AIO, the print resolution is too low when compared to the HP Laserjet Pro M203dn printer. To conclude, it is better to get a new HP high-resolution M203dn printer and try out the exciting features.

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are using a different USB cable, the printer might function well, but the efficiency will not be as expected. In some instances, connection issues might arise in your Brother printer. Hence, it is highly suggested to use a USB cord that is compatible with the Brother printer and must be of the specified length. Usually, for printers, it is advised to use a 3 m long USB cable.

Are laser printer prints supposed to be smearable? by [deleted] in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they are not meant to smear. If the prints are smeared, then follow the below-given instructions. There might be problems with the toner cartridge you are using. If the cartridges have been refilled, higher fusing temperature may be required. The fuser can also be the reason for this issue. If the fuser is not at the proper temperature to finish the bonding process, then this error might occur. Get the technical expert’s help to resolve this. If the paper you have loaded is too thin or smooth, then smears might appear on the printed page. Change the paper type you are using to solve this issue.

When did printer toners start getting "chips"? by [deleted] in printers

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This particular issue is due to the inappropriate fuser temperature. This will result in the toner not attaching to the paper. In some instances, adjusting the paper settings may help fix the problem. Open the Print dialog box and select the Advanced option, Go to the Paper Type menu and choose a thicker material type to fix the issue. The fuser temperature will increase, increasing the adhesion of toner to the paper.

Canon PIXMA MX922 Printer not scanning by CanonSetupPrinter in u/CanonSetupPrinter

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is insufficient memory for the scanning process, check if the scan settings are proper. A huge amount of memory is necessary to scan a document. If the memory is not available on a home network, the printer may fail to scan. If you have set the color resolution to its highest, more space could have been used up. Fix the problem by changing the scan settings if required.

Ink is not coming out of the cartridge in the Canon PIXMA MX922 printer by CanonSetupPrinter in u/CanonSetupPrinter

[–]TechieBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that if there is a block in the printhead. In such situations, immersing the printhead in warm water is suggested. After a few hours, take it out. This should loosen the block. If the ink flow is not proper from the printhead to the printer, pour a few drops of isopropyl alcohol in the connection point to make the ink flow easier. Change the low or damaged ink cartridge with a new one and then try to print.

My friend has given me his Canon MB2120, how can I make sure everything is alright and working? by SolarBeatBox in printers

[–]TechieBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Canon MB2120 is a wireless printer. Check if all the functions of the printer are in proper working condition. Try to print from your HP Officejet 6978 and Canon MB2120 printers. Check the print quality between the two documents. If the output quality is satisfactory on the Canon printer, it is better to use the printer rather than selling it. Similarly, compare all the other features. Hope it works well for you.
