Driver to have HP Laserjet C4120A (HP Laserjet 4000n) work with Windows 7

We just put in 28 new Dell OptiPlex 3030 AIO with Windows 7 Professional in a school computer lab - but the tech guy did not install a printer for it to print to because he says our current printer - an HP Laserjet 4000n (C4120A) - is too old and will not work with Windows 7. This is an EXCELLENT printer and has been working for us for a long time and I hate to give it up.
Would someone please direct me to where a driver for this printer that will work with Windows 7 - or will Windows 7 automatically determine what driver is needed and retrieve it from its set of drivers it has with the operating system?
Thank you so much for helping!

Hello,
I've seen this same issue with my printers (other HP printers) whereby the default setting to support the Duplexing hardware was set to 'off'.
A quick method to check this is look at what the setting is for Duplex hardware in the Device Settings tab, and if it's not set, correct it.
Printer Properties:
From the 'Start' orb -> [Devices & Printers] -> right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printer Properties' -> click on 'Device Settings' tab.
You should see a dialog similar to the mine (attached): look for the 'Duplex unit (for 2-sided printing)' and see if it's set to "Not Installed":
--> in either case, click on 'Not installed' and from the dropdown box, select 'Installed'... Click 'OK' to accept the changes and close the dialog.
Printing Preferences:
again, right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printing Preferences' -> click on 'Advanced' tab.
-->Check to see if there is a 'Duplex Hardware' or '2-sided printing' option in here: mine doesn't show one but thougth I'd mention it nonetheless.
Click on the 'Finishing' tab and select 'Print on both sides'...or simply test print a multi-page document and set those preferences on-the-fly.
Let me know if this helps...

HP LaserJet 1320 Duplex Printing Not working with Windows 7

Hi
I've just bought a new PC with Windows 7 Home Premium. I have an HP LaserJet 1320 printer (Prod no. Q5927A, SN CNGW53RLRY).
I cannot find driver that works the same way as the previous driver HP LaserJet PCL5. If I use this driver and can still get duplex printing but it will only print one copy at a time.
If I upgrade to HP Universal Printing PLC (or PLC v5) I can print multiple copies but not duplex printing. I have searched high and low through the HP site but to no avail.
Any help and advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks
GB

HP LaserJet M1522nf scanner doesn't work with Windows 10 scan feature

I used the instructions from Honor Student to get my scanner going. However, I did not see "Shell Hardware Detection" anywhere. Please advise!

Hi @inetdude
Since there is no full feature software and driver for 8 or 8.1, I am not sure what else to suggest other than for you to reach out to Microsoft. The driver you are using is an in-OS driver, perhaps they can help you.

Getting old Laserjet printers to work with Windows 7

Hi Everyone,
For those of you, like me, that may have an old Laserjet 4, 5, or 6 I figured out how to get it to work with Windows 7!
First, new computers do not have LPTx ports. So, when you first set up your Laserjet you MUST select a USB port - this is the main problem with getting your old laserject to work on a new computer. MY computer dispalyed USB001 and USB002. Since I have another HP printer installed using USB001, I selected USB002. You will also need a Pararellel to USB adapter cable - you can buy one on Amazon (I paid just $11.87).
Next, when selecting a printer driver you MUST select HP, NOT Hewlett Packard. Scroll down until you find Laserjet 4,5, or 6. NOTE, if you don't see these models, click on the Windows update button in the dialog box. NOTE: This may take a few minutes to display the updated list. Again, select HP and scroll down the list of drivers until you find your model Laserjet (Laserjet 4, 5, or 6).
At this point you should be good. Just finish the install process and make sure to print out a test page.
Good luck !

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
I hope this helps.

HP LaserJet 6L won't work with Windows 8

Good afternoon all,
Right I inherited this great little printer last year, it worked great with Windows 7 but now it wont work with Windows 8, it appears to be installed and the drivers are all up to date but when I use it to print a pile of random characters come out on the pages and doesn't stop. I've reinstalled it and installed it again and again every different way but it just doesn't work and HP says that it is compatible (there is a green tick beside it somewhere on your website). Could it be that I'm using a cable that is parallel at the printer end and USB at the computer end that is at fault?
James.

I had the same problem, and fixed it.
Control Panel - Devices and Printers
Click on "Add a Printer"
Click on "The printer that I want isn't listed"
For USB connection, choose "Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings"
Pick an existing port. I use a cable that has LPT port at one end, USB at the other end. So my choice is USB001 (Virtual printer port for USB)
Now you see the list of manufacturers and models. Before doing anything, click on "Windows Update" and let it run (takes a few minutes)
Once the update is complete and you're back to the list of manufacturers and models, select HP as the model, and select HP LaserJet 6L as the printer. Without Windows Update, it will only show "HP LaserJet 6L PS Class Driver", which causes the problem. Stick to "HP LaserJet 6L"
The rest is straight forward. Print a test page and check if it comes out right. Good luck!!

HP Laserjet P1102 does not work with Windows 10

I have just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and whilst my Canon MG6150 works with Windows 10, the other printer HP Laserjet P1102 does not. Looking at the HP website it seems that the Windows 10 drivers for this printer are not yet available. Is there any way I can use the printer without the dedicated drivers? I have been told I should try to roll back but the printer is not recognised in device manager. Please help!

Manual, Please let me know the outcome.

I have East/West Symphony.
Will it work with Logic express and do I have to have that little red usb drive in the computer to authorize it?
Also, would it work with Garageband??

Thanks-that's the same driver I'm using now.
The M-audio techs were unable to tell me if Quattro would work with LE8, so I've been wasting my time and money trying to make it work.
They also gave me conflicting opinions as to whether or not "tip" polarity was an issue when using an after-market adapter. One said definitely yes, one or two others said definitely no.
Their phone tech line has a 20 to 40 minute wait when I call. The online support system is confusing, which even they admit. I don't think my next interface will be from M-audio.
Thanks very much for the response, it helps me get beyond this phase.
Is the Quattro of any use for anybody else (i.e., can I sell it or give it away)?

hi erabbath,
Welcome to the Forums.
If you have the Intel Centrino N2230 Wireless + Bluetooth adapter, can you try to:
1. Navigate to the Control Panel (large icon view) > Devices and Printers and try to pair a bluetooth device (i.e. Bluetooth Headset) and observe if it gets detected under the device list.
2. If the Bluetooth Headset is listed but it's not working try toright click on it > choose Properties. On the bluetooth properties Window, go to the Services Tab and check all the appropriate bluetooth services.

Let me know your findings.

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I have a maginon film scanner bought from ALDI. It works with windows but with OSX Maverick software it keeps crashing as soon as I try and capture an image. I cannot find details of software updates anywhere.

Same question answered here : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5762314?tstart=0
I just popped in with using Mavericks (I got rid of my MBP about a year ago, and just got another one when I got an Air for my wife) and noticed that Mavericks is not working and playing well with a couple of programs I already owned (Paraellels, for example...yes, I spelled it wrong...). I looked for maginon.com and it didn't exist, nor was my google search directed to another location for them, so I postulate that the device may not be in production anymore, thus: no driver updates from the manufacturer.
From my mac-noob-layman's perspective: get some vmware, run windows and use the scanner in your virt machine to capture your images. Put the images in your mac side and work your mac magic on them there.
Peace
