not configured to collate. Solution: Install EIO hard disk. SOLUTION. If, in fact, you were trying to collate, install a hard disk. If you were not attempting to collate, change the computer's printer driver settings for "Storage" (or "Collate" or "Mopy," depending on the model). EXPLANATION. To collate without a hard drive, a printer has must work in piecemeal fashion. It receives a couple of pages at a time, prints them, requests more, and when finishing the document, starts the process over for the next copy. With a printer hard drive, the computer sends the job just http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/LaserJet-Printing/HP-5550-Unable-to-store-job-at-printer-Insufficient-disk/td-p/1103649 once, saving time and network traffic. To collate, the proper settings, “Storage” or “Collate” or “Mopy” (sometimes more than one of these), must be enabled. If they are turned off, the computer will send the job 10 times if it needs 10 copies. This brings us to a common problem. If the settings just mentioned are turned on, but the printer does not have a hard disk drive, you http://www.lbrty.com/tech/articles/general/unabletostore/unabletostore.html will get an error message (usually in the form of an error page that prints after the first copy) saying the printer is not configured to collate and couldn't store the job. It also requests the installation of a hard disk. People get alarmed by this and think there is something wrong with the printer, but in most cases, the printer is fine – it’s just being told to do something it cannot do. If you need to collate (or to store the job on the printer for some other reason), you will need to add a hard disk. But in most cases that we have encountered, people do not want to collate, and may not even be printing multiple copies. Often, the job is small enough that the printer wouldn’t need to store it anyway – but just having those settings turned on in the computer is apparently enough to cause the error condition. So the solution is to go into the driver and turn off those settings. The details will vary between different printer models and operating systems. Basically, you need to get into the printer driver (in Windows XP, for example, you would click on Start, then Printers and Faxes

Solved Error: Unable to store job at printer on HP Color Laserjet 5500 Posted on 2009-02-10 Printers and Scanners Peripherals 1 Verified Solution 5 Comments 13,846 Views Last Modified: 2013-12-15 Intermittently our HP Color LaserJet 5500 printer prints out a job storage status page that reads: Error: Unable to store job at printer Reason: Printer not configured to collate Solution: Install an EIO hard disk. I've researched this error on HP's site and I performed the suggested: I downloaded/installed the latest drivers. I doubled checked the settings on the printer for Job Storage and Mopier mode, both are disabled. The printer hard disk is also 'not installed'. We have the printer maxed out as far as memory is concerned and people are not printing huge files. I can't figure out what else to try. We really don't have to have to purchase a $500 EIO hard disk, I'd rather find another fix. Any suggestions would be helpful.
