Hello,
I have a iMac with a HP Officejet 63110 series all in one printer attached.
I researched on the hp website and was under the understanding, that the drivers are incorporated in the mac os. I read I was to complete the update then add the printer and select the correct model(which showed by default).
I am unable to complete an entire page.
Upon printing a test page, it only prints a few lines.(does mac do this by writing directly to the hardware?)

Any advice on fixing this so it can print would be greatly appreciated

Hi gsahli,

Thank you. Yes it is a 6310 HP printer. I had a typo. I will try to do that today and it should work. I will post my results.

I am a microsoft certified professional so this is quite new to me at this stage.

Hello,

Ok, I have looked at the links you sent me.

I can see the Officejet 6300 Series printer is supported on the HCL.

I had tried the reset printer and was only able to get to re adding the printer driver as was done multiple e times before.

It seems the printer shows up under printers and scanners as officejet 6300 Series.

When I remove it by clicking the - button. It disappears. Upon restart it is there again.

I simply am trying to remove it completely, restart and verify its removed. Then re-add it altogether.

Click the "-", then unplug the printer from the Mac and reboot. It should NOT reappear. Now plug the printer into the Mac and it should be discovered and installed. I think it's showing up on restart because it's being discovered and reinstalled.

Hello,

Yes, see the printer is now on my windows based computer. I had a hard time gettig it running. The USB cable was somewhat faulty and there are some other hardware issues going on. Apple was called and they could not figure it out.
As far as I can tell it was the cable. Now my dad did try another printer f the same make and model to no avail.
