Hewlett Packard HP Photosmart C6180 Calibration Error Solving Method

Finally after years of searching, now I've found the easy/right to solve this problem. My HP C6180 AIO Printer keep giving Alignment Error / Calibration Error / Paper Mismatch Error every time it switch ON. Here below the technique that I've got from fixyourownprinter.com

Paper Mismatch Error on HP C6150, C6180 or C7280 by Velveeta (10/31/08 12:49 PM)

I hope that this can help someone else as it has taken me all day to fix this issue on a C6180 all-in-one machine. I will ignore the normal solutions to a "paper mismatch" error such as your settings not matching your printing media. Obviously, check these first: http://h10025.www1.hp.com If your problem is not solved with the above steps, you have an issue with your "spot sensor" and it needs to be calibrated.

Instructions:

1. Press * and # at the same time, and then release both keys. The display reads "Enter Special Key Combo".

2. Press 3, 2, and then 9, releasing each key before pressing the next. The display window should read "Service: R0622M" with a revision number.

3. Press the right arrow button once. The display should read "System Configuration".

4. Press Enter or OK.

5. You will be prompted to enter serial number. Do not enter any information on the unit. Press the right arrow button until "media sense calibration" appears in the display.

6. Load Paper into the unit and then press Enter or OK.

7. Media Sense Calibration process will take place.

** re calibrate/align the printer.

UPC Ireland March 2014 200Mb/s Speed Promised

Upgrade UPC Bundle, broadband from 50Mb/s to 200Mb/s. Here the result...

At first, it a little bit tricky as most of the host in Ireland cannot support UPC 200Mb/s speed on speetest.net. The tried to change the host to UK London (namesco) to get maximum speed.

My setting :

•  Router - UPC Horizon (Samsung SMT-G7400)
• Wired Ethernet - Cat5e Cable
• Computer - Acer Revo (Gigabit Ethernet)

11/02/2014 (still on 50Mb/s)


06/03/2014 (Host in Ireland - Limerick/Galway/Dublin)

Limerick - Fast Wireless Internet

Galway - Airwire

Dubin - Vodafone IE

Happy with it... thanks UPC

Twonky Server 7.0.11 can see full 1TB USB External Hard Drive on DLink DNS 320L as Media Storage

Installed Twonky Server 7.0.11 on my DLink DNS-320L NAS as a media server for UPC Horizon TV Service with Samsung SMT-G7400 Setupbox (STB).

I will put here my installation details of my installation process as for my future reference elsewhere. The installation just straight forward as guide from a few websites (forums and blogger).

DLink DNS-320L has 1 USB port with it, and this USB port only can be used as Printer Server, UPS or Backup USB Drive. I tried to attach 1TB usb external HDD (LaCie P'9231 Desktop Drive) on it, and DNS-320L recognize it as another hard drive full 1TB capacity (NTFS Format).

System Management > USB Devices

DLink DNS-320L with 2 installed HDD plus 1TB USB HDD

Then I successfull to map this 1TB USB HDD as network drive through my Laptop (Windows 7).

Network Drives from DNS-320L

Originally, I attached this 1TB LaCie on my HTPC (Acer Revo R3610 with Windows 7 and XBMCbuntu) for media storage (full of my DVD/BD Rip Movies). So now it attached into DLink DNS-320L via USB and I tried to add it as media files (Multimedia Services on DNS 320L), but it won't shown as another storage to add  in multimedia services.

DLink DNS-320L Media Storage

But in Twonky Server, I can add this 1TB USB HDD on DNS-320L as media storage.

Twonky Server 7.0.11 on DNS-320L Media Storage

Bottom line is I can see all my movies inside LaCie from my setupbox (UPC Horizon - Samsung SMT-G7400) via Twonky Server (DNS-320L) without need to ON or setup another MediaServer/Machine.

Here snap from Twonky Server on DNS-320L via SetUpBox UPC Horizon (Samsung SMT-G7400)

Twonky Server on DNS-320L

And here snap from DLink DNS-320L Multimedia Services via SetUpBox UPC Horizon (Samsung SMT-G7400)

DNS-320L Multimedia Server

Next : I will try to add 2 or 3 USB External HDD into DLink DNS-320L through USB Hub, and see if this tiny NAS either can recognise and render it or not (DNS-320L FW or Twonky Server)
