My problem is printing in Excel with gridlines. I can print everything so far except any Excel spreadsheets with gridlines. They print fine without grids, but nothing with grids. Microsoft says it is not their problem. Apple says it is not their problem. HP says all drivers are imbedded with Snow Leopard. Would your solution solve my problem? Or, is there something else I am missing? We just upgraded to an iMac 27″ i7 with Snow Leopard and I also have an HP Laserjet 2100TN printer. My problem is printing in Excel with gridlines.

I'm glad I could help out. To everyone who has additional questions about other printer models: sorry I can't help you. I can only troubleshoot printers I own -- and then, barely. Best of luck to you. To everyone who has been sending thanks my way: you’re welcome! I’m glad I could help out.

I was oblivious to the removal of appletalk from snow leopard, and the 2100 workhorse of a printer is used for our playgroup, so the loss of it was a real nightmare, what with all the paperwork required in the UK Thanks again, Adam Just wanted to thank you for taking the time to post this – It saved me from going mad!

I'm having trouble figuring out the IP address of the printer. I can't find it on the Self Test / Configuration printout. Might it be because I am only getting one sheet when I do the Self Test / Configuration? Any help would be great. Thanks Hi,

I think I just did a shutdown, waited, and started up again to reset to a real IP address, but it was months ago and I can't remember. If this always does the trick, it's something good to know. Thanks for sharing it. Dilern: Thanks so much for this tip. I think I just did a shutdown, waited, and started up again to reset to a real IP address, but it was months ago and I can’t remember.

Reset your printer to default settings by turning the printer off and then on again but now holding down the smallest of the 2 buttons on the printer for about 10 seconds.

Give it 2 minutes, print a new config sheet and you should have a new IP adress!

Worked for me!

I'm pretty sure I shut down the printer (power down) and possibly the computer and then started them all back up again. The IP address changed to something other than 0.0.0.0 and it worked following my instructions. Hope this helps. Abby: The same thing happened to me at first.

Just got this HP 2100TN yesterday. I followed your advice and printed out IP Address but I always get 0.0.0.0. I'm on system 10.5.8. When I click to add printer Adobe PDF 7.0 shows up, no matter how many times I delete it. Any ideas? Hi Maria. Just got this HP 2100TN yesterday.

The printer is plugged into an AsanteTalk adapter which is plugged into a router. I can't get the IP address off the 2nd configuration page because I can't get a second configuration page; I never bought the add-on that would provide that. However, I did get an IPv4 number off Network in System Preferences, but it didn't work when I tried to add it. Any advice? I really don't want to replace this printer. Dear Maria,
