Driver updates for HP PSC Scanner

I've owned a HP Scanner  (HP PSC 2210) for a few years. Its scanned and copied pretty well. Then it stopped. A message appeared saying a communication problem had occured. This happened repeatedly so..
- Via the print and scan preference I uninstalled the HP, then went to setup the HP freshly, but no software was found
     'The software for this printer is currently unavaliable. Please contact the printers manufacturer for the latest software'
- Via the HP site i'm told
     'With the release of OS X 10.7 Lion, you do not need to download a driver from HP. These updates are availiable through Apple software updates.'
- Via apple icon I proceed to software update - Checking for new software
     'Your software is up to date - Software update doesn't have any new software for your computer at this time'
So:
If it has been working with lion software 24hrs (and for many months prior to this) previously why are no drivers availiable now?
Do I wait for an update to be availiable?
Do I buy a new printer/scanner?
All help appreciated.
(& Remind me why I changed to apple?)

It sounds as though your printer dropped off your network, for unknown reasons. Try the following - from HP's website:
Run a Wireless Network Test to check that your printer is on the network. To do this:
On the HP Photosmart front panel, press the Wireless button to display the Wireless menu on the printer display.
Select Run Wireless Network Test on the display.
The Wireless Network Test Report is automatically printed. Review the report:
If something failed during the text, it is described at the top of the report.
The Diagnostics Summary lists all the tests that were performed, and whether or not your printer passed.
Confirguration Summary to find out Network Name (SSID), Hardware Address (MAC), and IP Address.
If your printer is not connected to the network:
Press the Wireless button to open the Wireless menu on the printer display. Select Wireless Setup Wizard.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
Post back with your findings.
Good job switching to Apple, but I would not recommend buying another HP printer. They have had years to catch up, but their Mac support remains bottom tier. There are many better alternatives today.
Software Update is reporting nothing since your HP drivers are up to date.

  • Driver update for Win 7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available

    This patch is needed for the TouchSmart 600 AIO Desktop series if you haven't installed it.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for-Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipse...

    The update is not part of the desktop Win7 update disc from MS or HP  - Microsoft has not yet integrated it into Win7, and it is not yet available on Windows Update (it is likely to hit there sometime in January).   It was available too late to get it out on HP Update before the holiday break.  I don't believe there have been any rolls to the Win7 upgrade disks.   I do recommend (while still on Vista) running HP Update and installing all applicable updates  - PRIOR to doing the Win7 upgrade.  Also - I'd double check the drivers page for your system for any Vista updates as well,  best to do any driver/BIOS/Video BIOS updates prior to the Win7 upgrade process.  I know that some of them were created before Windows 7 was out - and may not want to install if it sees the newer OS.
    As to the fix - this could manifest itself in many ways - but essentially - this resolves system flakyness with USB devices attached .  Some internal devices (card readers, touchscreens, some Wireless LAN interfaces) connect via USB - so they could be affected, even if you haven't hooked up anything to your system externally.
    Not sure just what problems you were experiencing, so can't say this was the cause (and will be the fix) - but if it applies to your system - I'd definitely give it a shot.    I checked a couple of systems that had this update - I see it now on the software drivers and update page for them, so it looks like it rolled out OK.
    Happy Holidays...

  • Driver updates for Belkin components busport.

    Hello,
    A friend has an old horizontal beige G3 to which was added a Belkin Components 2xUSB busport. The original floppy disk contains the driver for pre 8.5 systems, but the manual advises going to Apple UK website for driver updates for use with OS 8.5 to 9.
    Can't find any sign of this update on Apple UK - which isn't surprising of course given how long ago it was issued, but can anyone point the way to a download for this driver? Would be most grateful..
    Thanks....BC

    The download that is available by itself is OK for 8.6. It specifically states it is not useable for later versions of OS9. It includes USB extensions v 1.4.1.

  • Does mountain lion comes with graphic, Does mountain lion comes with graphi, Does mountain lion comes with graphic driver updates?  I'm currently using snow leopard, and it seems that there's no graphic driver updates for a really long time.

    Need some advice

    I'm currently using snow leopard, and it seems that there's no graphic driver updates for a really long time.
    Snow Leopard is no longer being updated, 10.6.8, was the last update. So, a "really long time," will be forever.
    Yes, ML has graphic driver updates, but since there is no way to guess whether it impacts your unmentioned hardware, there is no way your question can be answered.

    >cant insall last driver from intel(they told me that i must download new driver from Toshiba
    It is possible to install the driver from Intel but you have to do this is device manager!
    You have to FORCE windows choosing the downloaded driver and this can be done using the advanced installation procedure. This helps to choose the driver from Intel and to finish the installation!

  • Gaming: driver update for NVIDIA GeForce - Sat P20

    i am not able to run an driver update for my NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5600 on Satellite p20-521. can someone help me out please.

    Hi Cuong
    I assume you use a wrong graphic driver or a wrong graphic card driver update procedure.
    Toshiba recommend to use the own graphic drivers. The all drivers for European Toshiba notebooks you will find on this website:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    After successfully downloading please unpack the driver. There you should find a setup.exe. Please install it.
    Well, if this procedure doesnt work so please go to device manager and select the graphic card and right click. Then you can select the option update driver. The driver source is the driver download place.

    Hello charliemun,
    What I suggest is to reset the print system, click the link below to proceed:

    Once you have reset the print system please make sure you are selecting the HP Driver and not the Airprint driver (see picture below)

  • HT3669 Epson printer driver update for 10.8.5

    Apple lists "software available" to update my Epson Artisan 50 printer driver to version 9.0.  However, when I do an Apple software update the printer is not listed and does not update.  Epson website says all updates must be done through Apple.  I just recently got a new iMac with Mountain Lion and switched the printer from my old 10.4 iMac.  It no longer prints colors accurately so after going through all the standard "fixes" with Epson I hoped a driver update would help.  Any ideas?

    sorry - it is HP Photosmart D110a.  the HP website says that there is no additional software other than the Apple update:
    "With the release of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, HP is providing updated print drivers and software for your printer. These updates are available through Apple Software Update . You do not need to download a driver from HP to use your printer with Mountain Lion."

    What functionality is available in the HP driver update through Apple Software Update?
    Depending on the printer functionality , one or more of the following software components might be included in the HP driver update for Mountain Lion:

    HP fax driver
    HP Utility
    HP scanning files compatible with Apple’s Image Capture and Preview applications

  • MSI Geforce 3 Ti200 Driver Updates for ME

    Why can't the drivers be updated past 44.03 in Windows ME?
    Multi-boot two operating systems
    Abit KG7-Raid
    AMD Athlon XP 1800+
    512 MB DDR
    MSI Geforce3 Ti-200 TD Pro:
    MSI 44.03 drivers with Windows ME
    Nvidia 52.16 drivers with Windows XP Pro
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Gamer
    Cambridge Sound Works FPS2000 Digital Surround Speakers
    NEC 97F 19" Flat Screen Monitor
    Linksys 10/100 Etherfast NIC
    Maxtor 30 GB HD
    IBM 10 GB HD
    Yamaha CDRW
    Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro
    Microsoft Intellimouse Optical
    US Robotix 56K modem (until NOV. 20, 2003 when cable broadband available   )
    I run all my games on WME so that I have more RAM available for the game (XP is memory hog) and because my flight control setup (CH Force FX {14 programmable buttons}, CH Pro Throttle {20 programmable buttons}, CH Pedals) is not recognized in WXP.
    I received HALO as a birthday gift. It loaded fine. I ran it and it continually locked up at the main menu screen of the game. The Audio part of the game continued to advance, but the video got stuck. My wife loaded the game and tried to run it and got the same results, she has only WXP for an OS on an MSI K7T 266 Pro 2 RU motherboard. She upgraded her MSI Geforce3 Ti-200 TD Pro drivers from MSI 44.03 to NVIDIA 52.16 and HALO then ran flawlessly.
    MSI has upgraded drivers 45.32 and Nvidia has upgraded drivers 45.23. Both of these drivers locked up my machine each and everytime I installed them. My machine runs the NVIDIA 56.12 drivers without any problem on Windows XP PRO. I had to uninstall the MSI 45.32 and/or NVIDIA 45.23 drivers and reload the MSI 44.03 drivers to get WME to boot up. HALO will not run on the 44.03 drivers. One of the techs from microsoft called me at home the last two nights in a row to try and resolve this issue. Conclusion at end of night one was updated video drivers needed to be installed. Conclusion at end of night two was that there was a hardware problem with the the conclusion that video card was not accepting drivers above 44.03 for the Windows Millenium Edition Operating System. There was no listing at either NVIDIA or MSI video driver site for any drivers beyond 44.03 other than NVIDIA 45.23 or MSI 45.32 respectively.
    The burning question is this: As with some of the previous NVIDIA drivers are the new releases compatible with all of the operating systems? I ask this because looking in the NVIDIA 52.16 drivers folder that gets extracted I see references in the read me file to W98,W98SE,WME. Why does the MSI Geforce 3 Ti-200 card accept the NVIDIA 52.16 drivers with WXP PRO and not the NVIDIA 45.23 not the MSI 45.32 drivers with WME (and I assume W98 & W98SE?)
    Interested in the response.    
    Thanks.

    Judging from the problems I and several other people on the forum have mentioned, there seems to be a problem with the nVidia 45.23 drivers and video. I get a grey screen with vids unless i turn down the hardware accel to almost nothing. Other people can get vid to show on their tv out. So if you havn't tried an older driver version yet, maybe you could use the good old xp driver rollback in the video device properties.

  • Driver updates for gaming on a mac

    I am a world of warcraft junky and for some reason the mac im running on can only run the game on its lowest video settings without causing serious frame rate issues. a friend suggested that i should update my video drivers and i have no idea how to do that with this mac. im running on the osx 10.4.11 laptop, does anyone have any suggestions as to how to make it run the game better
    (according to specs im running over the minimum requirements for the game)

    Which exact model of notebook is that? OSX10.4.11 just describes the operating system software you are running and doesn't describe the hardware which is probably the limiting factor. Go to the apple in the upper left corner of the display and drag down to about this Mac, then get more information. Copy and paste the computer information but delete the serial number for privacy reasons. I'm going to start off by guessing that either your computer is too old or with too few resources (especially video card) to optimally run the software (very likely), or (less likely) you are running an old version of the software that wasn't designed to run on a modern computer.
    I don't think Apple does driver updates if your friend providing advice comes from the PC world. Any updates are usually in terms of System Updates and you already have those. Once we know your model computer we can look for any special updates.

Maybe you are looking for
