Hello,

Today I spent 6 hours configuring the LaserJet 5850. I can print using USB, but I would prefer having as a network printer so that my laptop can print to it besides my workstation.

I plug the ethernet to the router. I was able to assign an IP and I know the workstation communicates to the printer because I was able to connect to the EWS through my browser. I see all the network setting.

Once I installed the driver, I tried to print the test page. It sounds like it is trying to print and I saw the print job on the queue, the power on/off switch was blinking, and the paper was feeding into the printer. But then, the print job stops and it eventually gave me the document failed to print error.

I reinstalled the driver several times but still have no luck.

If you have similar problems before and have the solution, please share.

Thank you.

Are you sure you're not referring to a Deskjet 5850? There is no LJ 5850
