  • I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit.

    I bought a 364 XL cartridge for my Photosmart 6510 printer, but it doesn't fit—it's too wide. Yet the User Manual I downloaded from HP (helpfully called c02983796) clearly shows an illustration of the XL cartridge fitting in the printer. Advice?

    Hi,
    The HP 364 XL Black ink cartridge been updated in September 2010.
    Take a look in the following document:

    If your ink cartridge is the older ink cartridge you shoulf contact the retailer to replace it.

  • Need driver for HP Photosmart 1115 printer for windows 7 beta

    What driver can I use to get this printer to work?  Can you also provide installation procedure?   Would your recommendation also work for HP Photosmart 1215 printer which I also have?
    Thanks

    Had the same problem, got it working by using Photosmart 8200 driver.   You have to go to add a printer, select Dot4 USB for the port, and then pick the 8200 driver from the list that Windows 7 ships with.   Once you do, it just works.   My test page printed on the first try.   HP could make this a *lot* easier for everyone, but I guess they are in the business of selling more printers.

  • Photosmart C4780 - Prints extra page even after HP driver update installed

    With Mavericks (OS X 10.9.4) installed, I have noticed that completed print jobs remain in the print queue for my HP Photosmart C4780 when printing from Safari and Preview.  If I want to print another (different page), I usually have to delete the previous (100% complete) job from the queue so that the printer will print (I seem to recall that sometimes, with a Google Chrome browser, this is not necessary).  If I close my MacBook Pro's lid (which puts it to sleep) with a completed print job remaining in the HP queue, it will then print again for a second time.
    Today, I installed the driver update below, but the problem did not go away when I tried to print from Safari and Preview.
    Critical HP Print Driver Update to address printing of an extraneous page - 2014-01-31 , Version1.0.0, 10.56M
    Any ideas of how to solve my problem?

    Sure - restart your router, your printer and your Mac.  It should print faster (especially with a router restart).

    I couldn't find HP 7200 or HP1115  Photosmart - win7 info on that page.
    I followed for a different printer instructions but the Photosmart 7200 driver only lists a manual duplexing option.
    Is there another driver that will work for the HP 1115 that support auto duplex?
    Thanks
    Use the Deskjet 970 or 990 driver as described above and enable the duplexer as described in my previous post.

  • How to reset password on HP Photosmart C4780 printer?

    new internet service requires re-installation of printer. 
    Model=HP Photosmart C4780
    installation prompt requests password.
    password forgotten.
    how to reset password?

    Hello,
    The HP software shouldn't ask you for a password unless you have permission issues on the PC, and it's asking for the admin password.

  • How do I connect my ipad2 with my hp photosmart c4780 printer?

    How do I connect my ipad2 with my HP photo smart C4780 printer?

    Sharon-
    I don't think that printer is capable of AirPrint.  If the printer has WiFi or can be connected to WiFi, you can use an iPad App like Print n Share.  If not, you can use a computer program like Printopia to share the printer as AirPrint over WiFi.
    Take a look at the free iPad App, HP iPrint Photo.  It has some limitations but should at least get you printing.

  • Color management settings for HP Photosmart d7460 printer?

    Hi,
    HP Photosmart d7460
    Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
    I have the above printer, and I have recently used Datacolor devices to manually calibrate both my monitor and printer. I notice that when, for example, I use Adobe Photoshop Elements or Corel Photopaint X4 to print photos, that I am advised to select software to handle color management. I also receive a message informing me that i should switch off printer color management in printing preferences (i.e. the printer driver software). Unfortunately the only options available in the printer driver 'color management' drop down menu appear to be either Colorsmart/sRGB or AdobeRGB. I understand that there should be another option, either 'no color management' or 'application controlled' but it is not present. There is also no option, in this menu, for the ICC profile that I have created for the printer, although the profile is present in the Adobe Photoshop Elements application, and in Corel.
    How do I switch off color management by the printer and allow the application to solely control color management? I understand that having both the application and printer control color management can lead to poor colours.
    Regards, Chris

    does anyone have any suggestions, any help appreciated.

    Hello, 
    Try the below steps to uninstall the existing printer entries and software.
    //Note: Make sure the printer is not connected to the PC through USB.
    press Win key + R  to open up an RUN window.
    in RUN window, type in  %temp% 
    a Temp window would open, and you'd see a list of folder name begining with 7z...
    Open the one, that has the printer name  in it, and locate for the folder name UTIL > CCC , 
    then locate for Uninstall L3.bat and double click on it to run it.
    After the uninstallation is completed, Restart the PC.
    Now run the HP Printer Install Wizard to install the printer s/w.

  • Help!  looking for internet camera compatible with Mac

    I need help! I purchased a Mac recently and so far I am very happy with it. However, we just had a baby and I'd like to see and hear my baby from my computer at work. At work we use PCs and at home we havea iBook G4. I bought a D-link wireless G internet camera, the DCS-950G, but I could not install it because it requires you to have a PC for initial installation. I've looked around the web but I've been unable to find an internet camera that works with the Mac. I am desperate and frustrated! Does aynone know of an wireless internet camera that works with the Mac? I'd greatly appreciate any help you can provide. Thanks.

    Hello B Real Brad
    You do not say which DV camcorder you have. The exact answers to your questions depend upon your camcorder's features and user guide instructions. If you experience problems when you try your camcorder, check your camcorder's users guide instructions. That having been said, here are the answers to your posted questions:> Do I need to have a firewire cable to successfully use it through iChat ...
    Firewire will be easiest. If you have a Firewire cable to download your DV Video to iMovie, that one will work fine.
    ... or can I use the normal usb cable?
    Depending upon your camcorder, that may work with additional software and or hardware, but, if your camcorder offers it, Firewire will me much easier.
    .. is the quality ... better using a DV camcorder ... ?
    Usually. This depends on which camcorder you compare with which webcam.
    Some people like the image quality of their camcorders better. See John Kennedy's "Cameras and Image Quality", the Sat - October 30, 2004, blog for a comparison. (John's is a very high quality camcorder.)
    See this link for my reasons for using a webcam when I do not need portability or highest possible quality. Some of the reasons may be of interest to you.For specifics on how to get going, see my recent response to Tony Keogh. Although Tony asks specifically about a particular Sony model, the specific suggestions I made there should apply to your camcorder, too.
    If the above do not get you going, I suggest that you start your own topic and give as many specifics as possible about your system, your problem, and what you have already tried. Your questions deserve the individual attention they will get in a separate topic.
    Here are a couple of other suggestions for your consideration:
    (1) I see from your other posts that you use Miglia TVMini. Be aware that some AV devices and third-party items can cause possible hardware or software conflicts with iChat.
    (2) Also, your system info shows that you are using 10.4.4. I suggest that you update to the latest available version of Tiger using the following method:- Repair permissions.
    - Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update (PPC).
    - Finish with another Permissions Repair.The latest Combo Update offers several additions and improvements over the older versions.
    Cheers,

  • Photosmart C4780 on Mac OS X 10.5.8

    Hello,
    After replacing my black printer cartridge, all of a sudden my printer no longer works.  I tried turning it off and on, unplugging the computer, and rechecking the connection via USB to my desktop  computer.  I even re-loaded the cartridges in case I didn't install them correctly.  My printer turns on and registers what it needs to do (copy, scan, print), loads the paper, but it won't actually complete the action.  I even tried to print the test page, but it won't print.  There are no error messages, but the power light blinks off and on (if that matters).  I'm at a lost as to what it could be.  Can anyone suggest any solutions? 
    Thanks!

  • Wirelessly Printing from a Macbook Pro to an HP Photosmart C4780

    Hi everyone,
    I've recently just purchased a Macbook Pro and an HP Photosmart C4780 printer. I was told in the Apple store that I could print documents and photos from anywhere in the house without having to plug my laptop into the printer via USB. I have plugged into the printer directly via USB and printed successfully, though I am still experiencing difficulties while trying to set this printer up to print wirelessly.
    Can anybody guide my through step by step to get this working? Any help would be very much appreciated.
    To clarify, I don't have an Apple router (such as Airport Extreme or anything like that).
    Thank you!

    You could start by resetting your printing system and then see if the computer sees the printer. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/14001.html
    Is your wireless network protected by a password? Does it have a name?
    I have a wireless HP AIO that I connect thru my wireless router. In other words the wireless router is the hub for the printer so the three notebooks and iTouch can print to it from anywhere in the area.

  • Printer Driver for HP Photosmart 7520 for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and 10.3 and 10.5

    I just purchased a new HP Photosmart 7520 printer.  One of my Macs at home is an iMac G5 that is running Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger.  It connects to the HP printer via Wi-Fi.  HP does not provide drivers for Mac OS 10.4 for the Photosmart 7520 printer.  I tried all sorts of old HP drivers and finally found one that worked, so I figured I would post here to help out anyone else who is trying to solve the same problem.  The driver download you need is the OS 10.4 driver for the Photosmart C7250 All-In-One printer.  Here is the link to the download page:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=mp-55650-2 &cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=219&product=3382185&sw_lang=
    After downloading and installing the drivers, I ran the HP Printer Setup Utility.  It was not able to detect my printer.  I had to go to System Preferences on my Mac and add the printer manually in the Print & Fax control panel.  The Print & Fax control panel was not able to auto-select the correct driver to use, so I selected "HP" from the "Print Using" drop-down list, and then selected "HP Photosmart D7400 Series" from the "Model" list.  That worked for me.  Good luck!
    According to the driver download page, this driver will work for Mac OS X v10.3.9, v10.4 and v10.5

    Thank you very much, I just bought this printer without paying attention to the compatibility of my Imac. Thanks to you, I just install it without too much difficulty. Thank you again.
    Merci beaucoup, je viens d'acheter cette imprimante sans faire attention à la compatibilité de mon Imac. Grace à vous, je viens de l'installer sans trop de difficulté. Encore merci.
