Hi everybody,

 

i had the same problem with hp lj 1320dn and 2055dn. It took me 5 years of my live to figuir it out why....

In our company we use HP Switches and HP Printers.

I have also disabled SNMP on our printserver, but didn't work.

 

 

The thing is: on our switches I have disabled SNMP authentication on particular port on which the printers are connected and enabled SNMP on the printserver.

AND yes it has worked.

I have an HP LaserJet P2055x that works fine during the day and then the following morning is locked up and needs to be restarted. Is the beta firmware that is being out via PM's the cure for this?

 

Thanks in advance

If the answer is yes, I need a link to the file too. I have the exact same problem on a printer with the latest firmware from HP. I have two other printers with older firmware that are working fine.

 

Thanks!

Choose Firmware on the download options and download the firmware updater.exe

 

Once you run it choose a printer (make sure it isn't printing anything as the firmware updater sends a print job to the printer

 

Once installed try one of them out before doing the rest, ours seem to be fully fixed now

 

Hope that helps

Hi all,

Sorry to resurrect this epic thread, we have the same problem with lots (~6) of our 2055s randomly dropping off the network about once a day and refusing to respond in any way (ping, snmp, web) until they are rebooted.

 

Have applied the latest firmware using the update utility, does anyone have any other suggestions?

 

Thanks

Jona

It was firmware v 20120615 that cured this behavior for all my 2055's if that's any help?

I've got a link to the firmware update mentioned in the previous post so that can help you guys find it easier

 

Drivers, Software and Firmware - HP Support Center

 

Going to try this on our 2055's and see if that does the trick!

I have a customer that still is having the problem of the printers going off line can I get a copy of the Beta Firmware?

 

Thank you!

I did link it previously but it appears that link doesn't work any more,

 

I'm pretty sure it is on the official HP site though,

Hello @ZeroHour,

 

unfortunately I met myself a printer HP Laserjet P2055dn which has problems with networking, so, please be kind and send me the firmware that solves the problem to me.

 

Thank you very much

Is the beta f/w for the P2055 still available?

[psydii]

Bah. wrong link sorry. You'd have thunk the link to firmware from the 2055 support page would link to the firmware for the 2055 printer eh? Obviously not. Edited March 10, 2015 by psydii

Thank You very much Colindean2000! I Hope this fw will solve my issues with that damn printer.

Wasteyard, did it help?

I have not tried yet fw received from you because I removed the printer from the network and I connected it via USB to a PC in another location. When I manage to do tests with fw that you kindly sent me, I will post the results here.

Hello

I have solution for p2055 and maybe more printers.

1. Please shut down printer.

2. turn on the printer with "X" button pressed

3. after about 1 minutes release "X" button

4. Mac adress is return

Thank You and sorry for english

 

in polish solution

Proszę wyłączyć drukarkę. Nacisnąć i trzymać przycisk X i włączyć drukarkę cały czas go trzymając około 1 minuty.

Drukarka powinna odzyskać MAC Adress i zadziałać.

U mnie to pomogło.

Pozdrawiam

Just lately update. I updated the printer with firmware which you kindly provided to me. Everything is ok and printer work in network without any issue. Thanks a lot.
