Continuous error beep/alarm after installing USB printer

Anyone have any experience with a continuous disabling/enabling of a USB device (in this case a printer) after installing on an X201 running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit?  Printer (older HP 2420) installs as expected in Win 7 and test page prints as desired.  Shortly thereafter the device seems to drop/readd continuously, and the only way to fix is to unplug the device.
Any assistance?  Thanks.

I think I understand what you are trying to do now.  How are you trying to install the printer software (download from website or software disc that came with the printer)?  
Are you certain your USB cord is working?  
Is your XP computer compatible with the Belkin switch?  
Does your switch require software installation as well?
I think your error about the USB device not being recognized sounds more like a computer/Windows error message such as the Belkin device itself is not recognized by the XP computer because that is not the same words used when the printer is not recognized.  I don't want to refer you back to Belkin so I will do my best to assist you but I can only hope I can fix this because this is what I call out-of-scope for me and do not have any formal training on your method.  Maybe I can come up with a work-around instead.  Answer my questions please while I think of perhaps another configuration of these devices more suitable for you.
Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
Every problem has a solution!

  • 8500 alignment failure after installing new print heads

    I replaced the print heads in the 8500 all-in-one wireless and get the alignment failed.  printer will print documents sent to it but follows with an alignment print page.  displays alignment failure alert.always prints alignment test page after every document printed.  Note:  replaced the print heads about two years ago without any problem.    patrick

    Hello , I see here you are trying to get the alignment to complete successfully on the Officejet 8500, and I may have some suggestions for you. Seems odd, but the first thing I recommend is cleaning the scanner glass and white backing on the lid. Clean the ADF scanner glass strip, the white ADF plastic strip, the scanner lid, and the scanner glass. Sometimes particle's or debris on the glass can interfere with the alignment process, even on these printers that use the semi-automatic alignment process. Use only glass cleaner to clean the scanner glass. Do not use cleaners that contain abrasives, acetone, benzene, or carbon tetrachloride. These substances can damage the printer. Avoid isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) because it can leave streaks on the glass.  Spray a clean, soft, lint-free cloth with mild glass cleaner - to protect the scanner, do not spray the glass cleaner directly on the glass.  You will want to clean the ADF scanner glass strip, the white ADF plastic strip, the scanner lid, and the scanner glass.  You could check and see if you have missed anything by reviewing or even repeating the steps in this document; Fixing Print Quality Problems for the HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer Series (A909). As well as the steps listed in An 'Alignment failed' Error Message Displays on the Printer Control Panel. Make a Note: HP recommends that you use genuine HP ink cartridges. HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP ink cartridges or refilled HP ink cartridges. If you do not use genuine HP ink cartridges, the steps in this post might not resolve the issue you experiencing.  Another thing you could try would be to clean the electrical contacts on the printheads and inside the unit. Follow these steps to clean the electrical contacts on the printhead and inside the product. (Pulled from this document.) CAUTION: Follow these steps carefully to avoid damaging the sensitive electrical components.
    Step one: Clean the contacts on the printheadNOTE: The ink nozzles on the printheads might clog if you expose them to air for more than a few minutes. The ink nozzles also might clog if you do not use the product for long periods of time.Make sure that the product is turned on.Open the top cover of the product.Press and hold the OK button for five seconds. The carriage moves to the left side of the product. Release the OK button.CAUTION: Proceed only if the carriage is on the left side of the product. If it is not, the printheads will be damaged when you install them. If the carriage does not move over, try turning the product off and on againWait until the carriage is idle and silent.Unplug the product power cord from the electrical outlet.NOTE: Do not turn the product off by pressing the Power button (). This causes the carriage to move out of reach.Lift the printhead latch.
    Figure : Lift the printhead latch
    Lift the handle on the printhead that the error message indicates is missing or damaged, and then pull the printhead out of its slot.
    Figure : Lift the handle to remove the printheadUse a dry, soft, lint-free cloth to remove any ink from the electrical contacts on the printhead.CAUTION: Wipe only the electrical contacts. Wiping the ink nozzles, located on the underside of the printhead, can damage the printhead. Do not touch the nozzles. Doing so permanently damages the ink nozzles, and the ink stains clothing.Figure : Electrical contacts and ink nozzles
    Electrical contactsInk nozzlesWipe the electrical contacts with the swab until no ink residue remains.Wipe the electrical contacts with a fresh cloth to dry them and remove lint.After the electrical contacts on the printhead are clean and dry, place the printhead on a sheet of paper or a paper towel. Make sure that the ink nozzles face up and do not touch the paper.
    Step two: Clean the contacts inside the productUse a fresh, dry, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the electrical contacts inside the product.
    Figure : Clean the electrical contacts inside the product
    Allow at least five minutes for the contacts to dry. Check the contacts for lint or debris, and then dry or clean the contacts again if needed.Step three: Restart the productPlug the product power cord into the electrical outlet.Press the Power button () to turn on the product. 'Printhead missing or damaged, replace the printhead' displays on the control panel.Insert the printhead into its color-coded slot. Press down firmly on the printhead to make sure that the electrical contacts touch.Pull the printhead latch all the way forward, and then press down to engage the latch.NOTE: You might have to press firmly to engage the latch.If the error message indicates that both printheads are missing or damaged, repeat the steps in this procedure to clean the other printhead.Close the top cover of the product. The product restarts and then prints an alignment page.If these steps resolved the issue, you do not need to continue troubleshooting.If the issue persists, continue to the next solution. You can review the Limited Warranty for HP Ink Cartridges and Customer-Replaceable Printheads for HP Inkjet Supplies, to find out if your printheads are in warranty. If the issue persists please Contact HP Support for further assistance. Fill in the model number and the form to receive a case number for quicker assistance.  Please let me know if these steps resolved your issue, or if there is anything else I can do to help.  I look forward to hearing from you!  Thanks, 

  • Install USB printer on Network Router as network printer

    Dear,
    I have HP colour laserjet pro cp 1025 printer. It is an usb printer. I want to install it on network using print server.
    can i print from devices such as iPad, iPhone, and iPods?
    Please help me for this..

    Hello JayeshDeshmukh,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums.
    Regarding the HP Laserjet CP1025nw being able to print from iOS devices, it has the ability to do so after an firmware update.
    You can download the update from the HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw Color Printer Drivers page. Select the Operating System of computer, download Firmware and use the USB cable connection to install the update onto the printer.
    Once the update is installed this HP document: Printing from an Apple Mobile Device should be a great guide to help print from the iOS devices.
    Let me know if this helps.
    Thanks,
    JERENDS

  • CanoScan behaving differently after installing new printer

    Hi All, I have been using a Canon LiDE 110 for quick scanning of documents into PDF.
    Just last week installed a new printer and since then, the PDF button on the scanner brings up a dialog box with 3 options:  PaperPort, MP Navigator EX 4.0, and ControlCenter3.  I now always need to select MP Navigator, which is the Canon scanner software, to begin the scan.  ControlCenter3 is related to the new printer I installed.  Prior to installing the printer, it always scanned without bringing up these options.
    Does anyone have any idea how to get back to how it was before?

  • Windows Vista Installation Failed. Error Restart Loop After Install.

    I made it as far as the end of Step 2: Partition for Windows Vista -> Format -> Install -> Restart
    Note: Partition size = 45 GB. Apple USB keyboard and mouse worked fine.
    The install process was stuck in a loop at this point. After restart the screen was black for about 5 minutes. Disc made noise off and on but no screen input. Then it finally restarted. Next screen had error info and a choice to continue. After that a "Install Windows" error msg appeared;
    +"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer and then restart the installation."+
    Clicking "OK" resulted in the same error msg. along with +"Press any key to boot from disc"+. No success attempting to start up from Windows partition. or disc. Restarted to Mac HD. There is a "Untitled" drive on the Desktop. It contains multiple folders (11 GB). I tried to restart from this drive w/o Windows disc and it returned to the previous error msg.
    Next I tried restarting w/ Option key, inserting Windows disc, clicking on arrow under disc icon and quickly pressing any key. This brought up +"Windows Boot Manager Window"+. The only choice was; +"Windows set up [EMS Enabled]. To specify an advanced option for this choice, press F8. Tools: Windows memory diagnostic.+" None of the key choices (Enter, Tab, Esc) responded. Disc would not eject.
    Booted to Mac HD. Ejected disc w/ mouse. Used Boot Camp to restore partition. After restart screen is black with; +"No bootable device -- insert boot disc and press any key".+ Then I power down/on with Option key. Only Mac HD is displayed. Log into Admin. Mac HD looks fine. Run Disk Utility to verify disk/volume. OK. Also ran TechTool Deluxe. Passed. Open System Preferences, check that Mac HD Startup Disk is highlighted. Restart. OK now.
    What is going on? I was quite confident this would install without any problem since I was using the latest OS X 10.5.6 and Windows Vista Business (early version). Could that be the cause? I had no problem installing it under VMware Fusion 2 (downloaded updates), worked flawlessly. If I can't get this to work then I have to go back to a PC for ACAD. HELP!!
    Can I get Apple Support for this issue (Phone only, or Genius Bar)? I have AppleCare.

    Your problem sounds somewhat like mine, although not exactly. In my case it seems as if my CD/DVD drive didn't like the hologram on my Windows XP install CD. I solved this by using Disk Utility to make a disk image of the Windows DVD and then burning the disk image onto a new DVD with an opaque "label". That solved that problem.
    A further problem occurred after that. When I got to the screen that told me to hit "Enter" to start the installation process my keyboard was unresponsive. I solved this by buying a cheap Windows keyboard. That solved that problem and I now have Windows XP running just fine.
    I think that you'll find that Apple tech support isn't very responsive to these sort of problems. I don't have Apple Care but was willing to pay my $49 for tech support. I ended up talking to a "Boot Camp specialist". He was polite but told me that it was "a windows problem" and that Apple didn't support Windows. I agree that Apple can't support windows but it seemed like my two problems were "Mac problems". Anyway, after tearing my hair out for 4 days I finally got it done. I have to admit that I'm not happy with apple tech support.

  • How do I fix an error code 0x000000c1 when install a printer officeject 6500 with windows 7 64bits?

    I am having a problem try to restall my printer back onto my Laptop Windows 7 system. I continue to get the completed down load and on the last step the error code comes up with 0x000000c1. Can someone help please?

    Sorry that you are having a problem with re-installing the software and drivers for the printer. 
    How are you uninstalling your product? It may still have old software on the computer, and it's getting confused between the re-install. 
    Try the link below to perform a L3 uninstall. Then re-install again.

  • Firefox fails to startup, with no error message whatsoever, after installing the Fireftp add-on.

    Firefox fails to startup on OS X 10.6.4, after I install the FireFTP plugin. There's no crash message or anything, just a bouncing icon on the dock and then nothing happens. Creating a new profile solves the issue until i install FireFTP, which again produces the same effect.

    Hi Anselmo_MSW!
    It looks as though you have followed the correct steps and no, you do not need to lift up both levers at the same time. 
    The error code 5100 indicates that an internal error has occurred which may be resolved by resetting the printer.  Please follow these steps for isolating and resetting the printer:
    1.  Open the printer's front cover, and then open and close the print head lock lever (do not remove the print head).
    2.  Make sure all ink tanks are seated properly.
    3.  Make sure all packing materials have been removed.
    4.  Make sure no paper is jammed in the printer.
    5.  Disconnect the printer cable from the printer.
    6.  Close the front cover and turn the printer off.
    7.  Unplug the printer from the power source, and then plug it back in after five minutes.
    8.  Power on the printer.
    If the error returns, the printer will require service options.  I realize you have just purchased this and wanted to let you know that this is not the normal operation of our printers.  What I would recommend is contacting a Canon Representative using the following link to learn of your service options.  Contact Us.

  • Error with DQS after Installing SQL Server Service Pack 2

    When I open the DQS client, I get this error message:
    Message Id: VerificationFrameworkVersionNotCompatible
    A new version of .NET or Data Quality Services was installed on this machine. In order to continue to work with DQS please run 'DqsInstaller.exe -upgrade'.
    However, when I run DQSInstaller.exe, I get this message:
    DQS Installer has detected a previous DQS installation under this SQL server instance.  Running DQS installer will remove the previous installation, together with all the knowledge stored in it.
    Will I lose all my knowledge bases?  Is there an upgrade path?

    Hi Adolfo Socorro,
    According to your description, when you install SQL Server 2012 Service Pack2, the error of
    Data Quality Services (DQS) will occur. The cause is that Product Updates will not update the schema of the DQS catalogs, any related MDS catalogs, and the SQL CLR assemblies kept the DQS catalogs. Therefore, extra steps may be required
    if the DQS catalog schema needs to be upgraded, or the DQS CLR assemblies have been upgraded by the product update.
    If you have previously run the DQSInstaller.exe to build the DQS_MAIN, DQS_PROJECTS, and DQS_Staging_Data catalogs in one or more of the updated instances, you
    may need to continue to do the necessary upgrade steps to upgrade the database schemas, such as launch CMD as Administrator
    cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.InstanceName\MSSQL\Binn" DQSInstaller.exe –upgrade
    There is an article about upgrading DQS, you can review the following article.
