We have three HP LaserJet 3055 all in one printer which we thought as good all in one printer. However, recently one of system failed to accept Network Printing and when I have checked I found that the Manual IP address given to the printer lost. The printer control panel shows IP address as 000.000.000.000
I tried several time to set the IP address 192.168.1.11 and even printer menu shows "setting saved" but within next minute if I check the IP, it shows the same 000.000.000.000 IP address.
(Menu > Network Configuration > TCP/IP > IP = 192.168.1.11 > Yes > Settings Saved)
The Report for Network Configuration shows Following two important symptoms:
A) Status = Initializing
and
B) IP address = Configuring
Show to HP engineer, they told that main board is required to be replaced and the cost they told was almost 40% of the new HP 3055.
Now the same problem observed with the second HP 3055 and again same symptoms. It does not save IP address even the control panel confirms "Settings Saved"
Any idea, is it related to any firm ware problem or actually a printer's main board problem ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Switch off the printer and press * & enter key together &switch on wait till you see " permanent storage int"
then release button your printer comes back to original defaults
then re-configure printer as you require

Hi,
Try this trick,First switch off your printer hold the button symbols & Enter for few second then turn on the printer do not release the button till the printer switch on totally,then enter the ip address & wait for ten minute.Now your ip will be saved.

Hi guys,
Thanks a lot this solution 3 worked for me. I was considering to buy a new printer because of this. Thank you so much. My printer is so critical for my work.

Try Pressing the "*" Button and the Number "5" at the same time while the printer starts up. This will initialize the NV RAM of the printer, which stores the printer settings.
This could remove any defragmented data from the NON Volatile RAM of the printer and hence resolve the IP drop issue.
How to assign network ip address in hp laserjet 3055 printer
Try doing a cold reset first, then check that DHCP is manual not Auto. then try to input IP address again. If the Network card is seperate then you may only have to replace the Nic

Try flashing the firmware: one of the fixes is this - (Improved IP address management of DHCP to Manual changes). See link below.

I have that same printer and it wont set auto IP assign. when I print a network config report it shows "IP adress: configuring" and "auto IP disabled" no matter how many times i set up to auto-assign
any sugestions?
Thanx
I have exactly the same problem as described here. For over a year, the
printer worked flawlessly over the network. Now it has this behavior as
described above.
I do not think it is the (only the) network card: From the time the printer is first turned on, for approximately 15-25 seconds, the lights on my network switch indicate a fully normal connection. Then, at some point during the start-up routine, it appears the network connection is configured by the printer, and the connection drops to half-duplex. A printout of a 'network report' confirms this is the case, and, no matter what is done, the printer will not accept (store) IP settings. This makes me think the problem lies with whatever onboard memory the printer makes use of to store configuration settings, especially since they don't seem to be saving correctly.
I'll just note that doing a "Restore Default Settings", or "Reset TCP-IP" does not seem to re-initialize the default factory settings for the network.
My ******* HP 3055 also does the same, and tried everything, but has no solution: does anybody know what to do?
