Hi
Connect the Printer to the Computer which is connected to Wireless Router
Share the Computers and share the Printer (Add Printer - Add network printer - select printer from network)

You will be able to print from anywhere

Hello All,

Please perform the following:
Super NVRAM init
When a super NVRAM init is performed, the all-in-one language and telecom country/region settings
are undefined. The user is prompted to set the language and telecom country/region. Until these settings
are defined, the all-in-one will not return to the Ready state.
CAUTION A Super NVRAM init erases all data that is stored in both the unprotected and
protected NVRAM memory.
To perform a super NVRAM init
1.
Turn off the all-in-one.
2. Press and hold down the * and 5 buttons.
3. Continue to hold down the buttons while you turn on the all-in-one. Hold the buttons throughout
the entire power-on sequence.
4. When Permanent Storage Init. appears on the control-panel display, release the buttons.
5. When prompted, set the language and telecom country/region.
6. Allow the all-in-one to return to Ready before using it.

SOURCE: hp laserjet 3050 - black line down the center of

If the lines only appear on copies from the auto feeder and printing is clean, then lift the auto feeder section and clean the scanner glass underneath.
If printing and copying have similar 'streaky' results you probably have a bad toner cartridge - try a replacement. If that doesn't work you have a fuser problem - which is quite a costly repair based on the replacement cost of your unit

SOURCE: HP 3050 - vertical black lines

You say that the scanner glass is clean, but it takes next to nothing to cause these lines. Couldn't hurt to chack again (if you havent cleaned it 6 times already).....anyway, I found this document that is not specifically for your machine, but the menu commands should be the same:
Recalibrate the product scanner:

  1. Press ENTER/MENU on the control panel of the product.
  2. Press the < arrow key once to display Service and press the ENTER/MENU button.
  3. Use the < and > keys to select Scan Correction and press the ENTER/MENU button.
  4. Insert a blank, bright white piece of letter (8.5 x 11 inches or 216 x 279 mm) or A4 (8.3 x 11.7 inches or 210 x 297 mm) paper into the document feeder tray.
Good Luck, and please rate the response :)

My brother just gave me a HP LaserJet 3050 and for some reason i can't send or recieve faxes. What would be my problems?

First plug in the phone line into a working phone to see the the line works. If the line works you may need a new modem for the 3050.

Unable to receive fax from HP LaserJet 3050

Hello,

Please make sure the machine is set for auto-receive in machine set up and make sure the phone cord is plugged into the line jack on the machine. If this machine is not on a dedicated phone line the machine (rings) should be set to pick up before the answering machine does.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/eric_7148ad2a373711a3

I have 2 telephone lines 23481629 & 23480095. i get faxtone on 23481629 & no fax tone on 23480095

Hello,

The HP 3050 laser multifunction is not set to handle 2 incoming fax lines. If you need that then you have to add a line switcher such as one from Command communications CS3500

I hope this helps, If so please rate my solution.

MY HP LASERJET 3050 WON'T SEND FAXES

While its possible, I doubt your doing it wrong...
  • Select [FAX], place the paper as indicated on the tray, type the number, and hit send. That's about it.
However, Fax machines will not send when attached to a digital phone network, used over IP phones, or in conjunction with DSL service without the lines being conditioned. This is a small device which hides the higher frequency noise from the fax machine. Any sort of signal shared on the lines may interfere with sending, recieving, or both. If you use DSL for example, I'd almost guarentee this is part of your problem.
