My 6310 will not print from the computer

I have tried (upon advice from an IT expert) turning off the system for a minute to clean the usb ports and then switching back on but to no avail. There is also a microsoft PDF printer on the system which I presume is included with the computer. I have set the 6310 as a default printer and after trying to print off the screen it comes up with "error" in the print queue and nothing happens !

Might be printernUSB port faulty, remove USB cable from the printer end, un install the drivers from system, re connect the cable. If system found new hardware, run the drivers, if printer not recognized, definitely its printer mother board faulty...

Computer says nothing wrong with printer the printer says its not connected when i try to print it works but when i open a site and want to print my statement it only prints the date and page number

First, do this, Remove all the cartridges, > Turn Off the machine, disconnect the usb cable, unplug the power cord, (disconnect the ethernet cable [if any], remove memory cards [if any]). Leave the printer Off for few minutes while you do some cleaning with the cartridges and contact points on the printer. You can use a soft brush or cotton dipped in alcohol/acetone/spirit to clean the contact points of the cartridges. Verify that the print heads are clean and dust free. Be careful with the heads while handling, you may damage them.

Clean the usb port on the printer using the soft brush with the same materials mentioned. also clean the usb jack/socket on both the ends of the usb cable. Make sure that the usb port on the computer is ok and working fine.

Now, restart your computer. Reconnect the usb cable and power cord to the printer, and power On as you keep pressing the power button (don't hold down, just keep hitting). Leave it on for few minutes before you install the cartridges. Install the cartridges. Now you are ready to start printing. But you need to check the print settings of your browser. I assume you are using the Internet Explorer. Open the Internet Explorer, click "File" > "Page Setup", you'll see a small windows as show below:

When it's opened, make the changes with the settings same as shown above and click Ok.

Now, on the internet explorer, click "File" > "Print Preview" and check whether you can see the contents to be printed on the preview page or not. I hope you are, close it and go to the page or open the page which you would like to print. Give the print command and when you see the print options (Print settings/Printing preference), change the settings as per your requirements and make sure you select the proper paper size, color (if you are printing only in black, click the color tab on the settings box and select "Print in grayscale" and then select "Black ink only" otherwise your printouts will be bluish or greenish), if there's no problem, you can select the print preview options. Save the settings and start printing. Your printing issue must be gone by now.

If you need further help, let me know.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Printer goes through the motions but text does not print

Let's first test the printer independant of your computer:
Try printing a test page using the instructions here: http://www.ehow.com/how_2006016_perform-test-epson.html. I hope your model printer is listed there. If not, try to find instructions specific to your model in your model's user guide or elsewhere on the internet.

If this works and printing from your computer doesn't, then:
(???Bad print drivers???) Reload the print drivers on your computer.
(???Bad cable???) Try replacing the printer/USB cable that connects this printer to your computer.
(???Bad USB port???) Try using a different port to connect the cable to your computer.

If none of this works you either have a faulty ink cartridge or a more serious issue with the printer. Depending upon the model, unfortunately, it might be cheaper to replace than repair.

Wireless laptop not printing

Indeed, you don't need the print server. Since your HP 6310 already has an integrated network port, you may setup and use it on your laptop the same way you do with your desktop. If you can browse the Internet wirelessly with your laptop, you should also be able to print.
