Can't install printer driver

Trying to install a Samsung C410W printer and I keep getting the following error message.
"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
Weird thing is, I was able to install this printer on two macbook airs within seconds.
Thanks

Truth be told very rarely do you need to install these because of the amount of drivers that are already installed. If however you can't go directly to Samsung's web site this should do it if not try.

Can't install printer driver: HP Color LaserJet 2605dn drivers "not currently available from the Software Update server"

I was having trouble printing to my HP Color LaserJet 2605dn from a Mac Pro running Mountain Lion, so I went to System Prefernces -> Print & Scan deleted it and atempted to re-add it. When I try add the printer I get this message:
Software for this printer is available from Apple. Would you like to download and install it?
After clicking Download & Install (the only option other than Cancel), I get this:
Can't install the software for the Hewlett-Packard HP Color LaserJet 2605dn because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.
What's the workaround when Mountain Lion can't find the driver?
Thanks!

The 2605dn has dual Network and USB connectivity. Which are you attempting to configure: Network or attached USB?
Printer on, and if networked, use a static IP address
Print & Scan
IP
Provide printer static IP address
Select Printer Software ... HP Color LaserJet 2605dn driver (not sure about that 2600 driver)
Add
Configure Driver under Options and Supplies
I have a 1994 HP Laserjet 4m Plus set up using these steps and the appropriate driver. I just added another network printer, using the same IP address, but using the above 2605dn driver without any issue other than complaint about a redundant IP address.
Hopefully, you have already sorted this out.

Can't install printer driver for Epson Workforce 845 on Lion

I can't seem install the printer driver for the Epson Workforce 845 on my MacBookPro running OS 7.2.
I installed the software from Epson but the printer installer can't find it.

I just finished installing an Epson Workforce 545 on Lion. This info is valid as of early March 2012. The trick seems to be this: DON'T install using the CD that comes with the printer. DON'T download the driver from Epson.
First do an Apple Software Update to make sure the machine is up-to-date. Then simply open the Printer & Scan preferences and add the Epson printer. It will download the driver directly from Apple and you will be good to go. If you do install the bad drivers from Epson, you have to remove the /Library/Printers/EPSON folder and also anything EPSON in the Cache folder, then start over.

Can not install printer driver

I purchased a Canon Pixma MG5350 and try to install the driver but this message appears on my screen: The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/hpPlugInInit.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.
It is the latest one and there are no more updates on this driver. What should I do?

Thank you sberman for your answer. I have tried it but it doesn't work. I just deleted the plugin and everything that had to do with HP, emptied my trash and rebooted my mac and the driver was correctly installed, finally! Now I have another problem though. I can not add the printer to the laptop via System Preferences > Print & Scan and it does not even show in System Information > Usb that I am connected to the printer. The printer comes without a USB cable so I bought one yesterday and think that is the problem.

Mac OS X 10.6.8 is the current incarnation of Snow Leopard, and fixes various issues in earlier releases.
Current versions of Mac OS X 10.6 include the necessary printer driver for the Brother DCP-7030 printer (HT3669). (The asterisk footnote on that printer indicates there was a recent update via Software Update, so get to current 10.6.8 and ensure the Brother printer software update has been selected and loaded.)
If you're on the current Mac OS X version and if have the Brother update loaded (from Apple) and if problems with the printer persist, then remove the printer from your current Mac OS X configuraton, and re-add it, and see if that clears the particular issue(s) you're having with this printer.
From experience, the Brother software for Mac OS X is a little odd, and the older software stuff (and particularly around the scanner controls for their multi-function series) were, um, unusual, and a little unstable. Printing generally worked fine, though. Recent versions of the Brother software are working better including for the scaller, but the UIs and the set-up are both still odd. If you're using the box as a printer (I haven't looked at the DCP-7030 features), then you're best using the Brother software that arrives from Apple and not the software from Brother.
Also ensure the printer firmware is current. That's corrected some odd behavior on some Brother printers.

It says "can not install the driver: could not find media for this driver"

I am havin problem with sound in my Compaq presario V6406TU. When i try to install, it says "can not install the driver: could not find media for this driver", how ever i get a beep for every error message. In my device manager there is no UAA and in services.msc windows audio is started.
I have tried almost everything on net but not able to solve this, plz help.

= No SB0220 support available? SO, IS THERE exactly a model numbered as SB0220 AT ALL?
I think there is not.
Yes My Sound Card is exaclty SB0220. I have downloaded the patch and start it. After that I configured the installer and now I have creative drivers. But are they the best for my sound card? After all I`ve pathed the installer and some sort lied it. If the drivers are for my model, why should I path it's
Yes, I've seen a true SB0220 too on a picture after writing that comment so there is true SB0220 model. But, are you sure your card is SB0220? Did you look the number from a sticker on card board w/ serial number lik MSB022xxxxxxxxxxx where the SB022x is the true model number for your card.
Why you didn't got drivers installed for your card is, because the installer doesn't support the model SB0220 (supported cards are listed in ctcomp.dat -> this is the file ctcomp.exe patches).
IIrc, those drivers are the latest ones for your card. If you like to, you can try soft-mod your card the way, you can use Audigy series drivers (which are a bit newer) -> http://www.tech-pc.co.uk/audigy-2.php (i.e. you just use ctcomp.exe utility to patch the installer for Audigy drivers (use these drivers st - http://www.station-drivers.com/telechargement/creative/%20audigy%205.2.0.042.exe) (newer installer maybe can't be patched w/ ctcomp).

I can not install any driver for any print to my laptop.

I have been trying for months to install a driver for just one printer and we have five or six printers.
My problem is that every time I install a driver it fails and rolls back, everytime. It would just about completely finish installing before rolling back.
My laptop is a Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2.
PS: There were three other users before me that was using this laptop. I know all three of them and none of them know much about computer. So I tryed to clean out all the junk out of it.
I got a little more info for however reads this post. The error that I recieve has no number or error code it just says "Fatal error during installation," but it also has in the title bar this "C:\Users\Justin\AppData\Local\Temp\7z1763\Setup\..\Setup\hpzprl01.exe, which seems like it might help.
Hope that helps.

I figure out what my problem was. Here is what I did: I recheck all of my services and startups. If you need help I'll layout steps for you. Just reply that you still need help.

Can't find printer driver in menu

I have a MacBook running 10.4.8 that I am trying to set up to print to an HP Deskjet 5150. Supposedly, the drivers for the Deskjet 5100 series are included with Tiger. However, when I go to add the printer, I can't select the 5100 series driver from the menu. It just doesn't show up. The last Deskjet that's listed is the 2500 series. I installed all of the printer drivers from the Tiger installation DVD, and I also downloaded and installed the driver directly from HP's web site. I just can't seem to select it. I've also tried restarting a couple of times. Any ideas?

Well, I've checked the list of installed printer drivers for HP by OS X and I don't see a driver for the Deskjet 5100 series.
When you downloaded the HP driver did you install it? You need to install the driver. Also you need to get the Universal Binary driver.
You will need to uninstall any previous HP drivers you have installed for this printer and then Reset Print System in the Printer Setup Utility before trying to Add the universal binary driver.

T400 Windows 7 64bit Can't Find Printer Driver

Hi all,
Perhaps someone can help with this puzzling problem. Just bought the T400 w/Win 7 64 bit from the Lenovo website. It is great except one thing.
I have a Win2k T22 ThinkPad on the network with a parallel port HP laserjet 6L and a USB port HP DeskJet 970cxi. When I go to add a printer on the T400, Win7 searches the network and finds the printers. For the 6L it downloaded a driver and it works fine. For the 970cxi it tries to find a driver from MS website but can not find a driver.
When I connect the970cxi printer directly to a USB port on the Win7 T400 it finds a driver and it works fine. But not over the network? Even after it found a driver when it was connected locally?
On the network is a Debian Linux computer that can print to both printers. I turned on printer sharing on it. The T400 can find the printers on the Linux box and can print to both the 6L and 970cxi.
I loaded VirtualBox on the T400 and then install Ubuntu Linux. The Ubunu Linux can find the printers and can print to both.
Does anyone know what the heck is going on here? Why can't the T400 find a driver for the 970cxi printer but when it's connected directly it finds the printer driver and works?
Is this a Win7 64 bit issue?
No driver available?
Communication problem w/printer?
Buy a new printer and throw out a perfectly good printer?
Thanks,
Rich
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I did as you suggested but now get a different error: 0x00000214
I googled this and found others with the same problem. Tried the solution and it worked!
Here's the link:
Network Printer Problem Link
In case the link gets broken I cut and pasted it here:
1. Click Start, click Control Panel and double click Devices and Printers.
2. Click Add a Printer.
3. Select "Add a local printer".
4. Select "Create a new port". Choose "Local Port" as the type of the port.
5. In the box "Enter a port name", type the address as the following format.
\\Network address of the host computer\[The Share Name of the printer
Then click Next.
6. Choose the correct driver in the driver list. If no available driver, click the button Windows Update, wait for the process finishes and then look for the driver again.
7. Finish the installation.
Thanks! Your suggection got me to an error I could identify. And a solution. I hope others find this helpful.
