Deskjet 710 series printers - patch for 64 bit Windows 7

Hello,
I have a Deskjet 710, connected via a converter cable to a USB bus of my laptop, running under Windows Prof. 64 bit.
The converter cable is "Prolific Technology Inc.-IEEE-1284 Controller".
The initial printer driver came from "Windows Update" and the printer is correctly installed on the USB001 port.
I have replaced the original HPVDB720.DLL file with the hpvdb720.dll file from the patch download.
Unfortunately the printer still will not print, although the printjob is in the printqueu.
Is there anyone who can help me ?
Thanks,
FVL

If the print job remains in the queue the patch has been applied correctly.  (Without the patch the spooler will crash....)
Are you sure your usb-parallel adapter works in Windows 7?  Generally the adapter will require a driver in addition to the printer driver.  I would also suggest checking the documentation for the proper port, some USB-parallel adapters may provide a port such as LPT3:.

  • Deskjet 710/720/810/820/1000 Series printers - Patch for 64 bit Vista and Windows 7

    There is an issue with the 64 bit Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 or 8.1 drivers that causes the spooler to crash with the following HP Deskjet printers:
    Deskjet 710    
    Deskjet 712 
    Deskjet 720 
    Deskjet 722 
    Deskjet 810 
    Deskjet 812 
    Deskjet 820 
    Deskjet 822 
    Deskjet 1000 
    The attached file contains a patch for this issue for Vista and Windows 7.
    [The patch does not currently work for Windows 8 or 8.1 x64 systems.  There are some efforts to address this, if a solution is developed it will be posted here.  {Edit - I have not made any progress in getting the patch to work in Windows 8 x64.}]  
    First make sure the driver for the printer is installed.  If the driver has not been installed go to Start, Devices and Printers, Add a Printer, Local Printer, choose the proper port (for USB-Parallel converters the port will likely be USB001: or perhaps USB002: ), Next, click Windows Update then choose HP for the manufacturer and select the appropriate printer.   
    Apply the patch as follows: Log into the computer with an administrative account.  Download the patch by clicking on this link or on the paper clip at the end of this post.  Save the patch file to your computer, then unzip it.  Next copy the three DLL files to the following directory:  %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3   
    Note that %windir% is a system variable that points to the location of the Windows directory. For most systems this will be C:\Windows.  You can click Start, Computer and type %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 in the address bar and it will find the right place.
    This can be done from a DOS prompt if DOS is opened with the "run as administrator" command, or from explorer with a copy and paste.  Depending on your UAC settings you may need to provide confirmation.  Also allow the current files to be overwritten if prompted.
    This patch is not required and should not applied to a 32 bit version of Vista or Windows 7.
    Thanks to extraordinary Microsoft engineer Alan Morris for guidance for the patch.
    Update - the following are more detailed installation instructions:
    Download the patch from here. Now click on the file and open it, then extract the patch to some directory that is easy to find. (I use c:\temp. If this directory does not exist you can create it as follows: open the administrative DOS prompt by clicking on Start, All Programs, Accessories, then right click on CMD.EXE and select Run as Administrator. Click in the DOS box then type the following:
    MD c:\temp
    CD \temp
    Now extract the patch files into the c:\temp directory (extract all, chose c:\temp as the destination).
    [Update - Windows security settings may prevent these files from being used, please open Computer, type c:\temp in the address bar and then right click on each of the dll files and select Properties.  If there is a message in Properties indicating the file was downloaded from the internet and may be blocked then unblock the file before proceeding.]
    Next click back in the administrative DOS prompt and type the following: (stuff in green is comments, do not type them...)
    DIR *.dll (this is just to verify the files are there, it should list hpvdb720.dll, hpvdb820.dll and hpwm5db1.dll and perhaps others.)
    Net stop spooler (makes sure the files are not in use.)
    Copy  hpvdb720.dll  C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this is for the Deskjet 710/712/720/722)
    Copy  hpvdb820.dll  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this covers the Deskjet 820 and 822)
    Copy  hpwm5db1.dll  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3(this covers the Deskjet 1000)
    Net Start Spooler
    Exit
    [Edit - note that these DLL files will already be in the directory.  You will get a warning asking if it is OK to overwrite the files, say "yes".]
    At this point the patch is installed and ready to print.
    Note that the printers here do not support USB connections, they have only parallel ports. [Edit - if your printer does have a parallel port use it, this will likely be much less problematic than using a USB-Parallel converter.]   If you use a USB-parallel converter make sure it is supported in your operating system.  The following posts are flagged with USB-parallel cables that are reported to work in Windows 7.   A driver is required for the USB-parallel converter in addition to the driver for the printer.  For supported converters this is typically supplied automatically in Windows 7.  Note:  the proper port to select for the USB-Parallel converters is often USB001:.  I have heard of some cases where the port was USB002: or LPT3: as well.  If the port you are using does not succeed (after applying the patch) try changing the port by going to Start, Devices and Printers, right click on your printer and select Printer Properties, then click on the Ports tab.

  • Deskjet 720 Series, need patch for 32 bit Windows 7, same problem as 64 bit

    I have been frustrated trying to get my Deskjet 720C printer to work with Windows 7. I saw that the 64 bit problem was solved but it says not for the 32 bit. Why can't it be used on the 32 bit? And what should I do? Thanking you in advance. Mo

    The 64 bit version of the drivers for the Deskjet 710/720/810/820/1000 series printers do not work properly as delivered and a patch is required, available here.  This patch works for Vista and Windows 7, there is no patch available for Windows 8 at this time.
    The 32 bit version of Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8/8.1 do not require a patch, the delivered driver works.  The usual issue with the 32 bit version is the port connection.  The Deskjet 720c only had a parallel port and most WIndows 7 machines only have USB ports.  There are USB-Parallel converter cables available, but these can be problematic.  If you are using a USB-parallel converter cable you will need to make sure you have one that is compatible with Windows 7.  The models mentioned in the posts here have been tested to work by folks in the forum.
    If you have not resolved the issue please provide some additional details of the problem you are seeing, including how the printer is connected (parallel cable or USB-parallel cable), how the driver wwas installed and any error messsages you see.

  • HP deskjet D2300 series driver not working in windows 7

    This procedure is much too complicated for an average user. You know that millions of Wondow XP users are switching to Windows 7. I' sure that most of them are facing similar problems. HP should come with a user friendly solution that solves the above issues. Don't you think?
    My problem remains unsolved.

    Hi dvh,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that your HP Deskjet D2300 series driver not working in windows 7.
    Do you see any error messages with the installer? Or does it just close out and doesn't install?
    In the meantime, please try using our HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
    Hope to hear back from you, and have a great day!

  • Why is the a505 series not compatible for the windows 10 upgrade

    Why is the a505 series not compatible for the windows 10 upgrade. It does not show up in the system available for the upgrade.

    Nobody said that it wasn't compatible. Microsoft makes that determination.  Toshiba, however, has chosen not to write new utilities and drivers for it for Windows 10.

  • Can I share my DeskJet 722C connected to a Windows XP Desktop with a 64 bit Windows 7 HP ProBook?

    I was able to directly connect my HP DeskJet 722c with my new HP ProBook (S-series), running on 64-bit Windows 7, after following directions on this site.  But now I would like to permanently re-connect the DeskJet to my 32-bit Sony Desktop computer, running on Windows XP, and be able to share that printer on my wireless network with my HP ProBook laptop.  Can you help me?

    This can be done by sharing the printer on the XP system and adding it to the Windows 7 system using a Windows Update driver.
    The first part is to install and share the printer on the Windows XP system.  
    To share the printer on the XP system, follow the steps in this document from Microsoft.  I recommend using something simple for the printer share name as it will need to be entered on the Windows 7 system.
    The next step is adding the printer to the Windows 7 computer.  Make sure to uninstall the printer from the Windows 7 computer before continuing.  
    1.  Go to Start>Devices and Printers.
    2.  Click on Add a printer at the top.
    3.  While it is a networked printer, it is not the current network standard printer.  Select Add a local printer.
    4.  Select Create a new port with a local port for type.
    5.  Enter \\<host computer name>\<printer name> without the < > symbols.  The host computer name is the name of the computer that has the printer attached to it.  If you do not know that name, go to the host computer and go to Start>Right-click Computer (My Computer on XP)>Properties.  The computer name will be listed here.  The printer's share name was selected in a previous step in the Microsoft article.
    6.  Click Ok and the printer driver screen will appear.  Click on Windows Update to ensure it is the most current list.
    7.  Select the printer model from that list.
    8.  Follow the rest of the prompts.
    At the end of these steps, the printer should be shared from the host computer to the other Windows 7 computers. 
    Let me know what happens.

    I need patch for Windows XP fof alert 1203/0 IP fragment Overwrite.Kindly assist on this please anyone.

    The signature fires because traffic matching what it detects is seen.
    The vulnerability was disclosed prior to winXP releasing, winXP is not vulnerable to this.
    Why 2 winXP endpoints are sending traffic that triggers the signature - don't know - we'd have to look at the traffic that is being passed and match that to the alert that's firing. If you feel that this there is a false positive, I ask that you capture traffic and provide the alert that fires during that capture and either open a TAC case, or submit it here:

  • Dowloading Deskjet 6840 driver for 64-bit Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    I've had a Deskject 6840 on my wireless network for some time and have just taken possession of a new 64-bit desktop running Windows 8.1.  I tried to add the printer using the "Add Printer" facility of the Control Panel.  As the 6840 did not appear in the list of HP printers I did a Windows Update only to find that it still doesn't appear in the list.   I then visited the HP website and arrived at this page:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4158&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=3854...
    There are two downloads offered, but neither of them are the driver!  I tried downloading the Printer Install Wizard, but all that told me was that the driver was missing and to use the "Add Printer" facility of Windows, which I had already done!
    My old desktop is bust and I'm unable to print on the new one so am having to work on my W7 laptop.   I'm getting a little exasperated.  Am I going to have to buy a new printer?  Has anyone got their 6840 working with Windows 8.1, if so how did you do it?
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Try following these steps and check if that may help:
    Right-click the Start button () or the lower left corner of the screen, click Search, and then type Change device installation settings.
    Click Change device installation settings.
    If it is not already selected, select Yes, do this automatically (recommended), and then click Save Changes. Your Windows 8 computer can now automatically detect the most current in-OS printer drivers and then download and install them using Windows Update.
    Now add the printer through the network and allow a few moments for the printer to install.
    If the same persists, open the Control Panel and select Devices and Printers.
    Take a note of the printer IP address on that screen (Listed under the Addres column) and click on Add Printer and then click "The printer that I want isn't listed" link.
    Select to add a printer using Standard TCP/IP and click on Next, then type the printer IP and follow the steps.
    Once the printers list appear, click the Windows Update button and allow it some time. the list will re-appear once the updte completes.
    Note: depanding on your internet speed it may take some time, 10-15 minutes are normal for the update to complete.
    Select HP, then select the HP Deskjet 6800 Series and follow the steps to complete the wizard:

  • OAS 10.1.3.5 on Windows 64 bit, NO CPU patch for April?

    After reading the CPU Advisory for April CPU 2011, it appears that for OAS 10.1.3.5 on Windows 64 bit, that there is NO CPU patch for April? It only shows a patch for Windows 32 bit. They do not mean that the 32 bit patch should also be applied on 64 bit Windows o/s having OAS 10.1.3.5? I just want to make sure I skip this CPU since I have 64 bit o/s.
    I ask because the list of bugs fixed in the README for the 32 bit patch list 32 bit bug fixes , and then 64 bit bug fixes.
