Hot to install HP DeskJet 710C (LPT Port) on Solaris 10?

Hi.
I'm trying to install HP DeskJet 710C printer on LPT port.
There is no such model in the list of Printer Administrator.
I tryed few models on /dev/lp1 and /dev/ecpp0 but with all I get message "out of service".
Printer is fully functional.
Is there solution to make this printer working on Solaris 10?

Hello Everyone,
I know this is an old post, but this might be of some interest to folks trying to set up a local printer under Solaris 10 and the Developer edition. There is a bug that prevents the ecpp driver_alias from being created under /etc/driver_alias. The workaround to get the driver_alias created is as follows. As root (su -) in terminal
update_drv -a -i "lp" ecpp
reboot the machine and you'll have the driver alias for ecpp present in /etc/driver_alias along with an entry in the print manger under Printer Port for /dev/printers/0
Here's a link describing the bug:

HP deskjet 710c and windows 7 64 bit serial port configuration

Hi computer people,
Please help, I can't get my Hp deskjet 710c to print with Windows 7 professional 64 bit computer via non usb i.e I am using the serial port connections via computer and printer. Any solutions as to why it won't print ?

Hello PeterB91,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I have read your post on how you are not able to print on your Windows 7 computer, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
Unfortunately, the only way to update the drivers for your printer on your computer is to connect the two devices with a USB cable. This will allow the installation of Plug-and-Play drivers. According to the Product Specifications for your printer, the only available connection-type is for the IEEE cable.
As a workaround, you may be able to use a USB to IEEE adapter, but this option is not guaranteed.
I hope this helps!

Deskjet 710C not printing after Windows 10 Upgrade

Hi folks, I have recently completed the Windows 10 upgrade from Windows 7 with no issues, or so I thought. My Deskjet 710C appeared to be installed correctly (it was working correctly under Windows 7), but if you try to print to the printer or print a test page from the control panel, the printer does not do anything. I checked the compatibility page and completely re-installed the device including drivers from Windows Update for the 710C (it was previously using drivers for the 720C, but this has never been a problem). Still no response. If I print a test page while having the print queue open in Windows I can see that the test page lands in the print queue for a moment, but then disappears without the printer actually doing anything. No error messages, but no printing. Is this a driver issue, or is it something else I'm overlooking? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Larry

Hi , I did research this issue. The drivers are listed that they should work from the Windows Updates, but they are not communicating. HP Printers - HP Printers That Work with Windows 10.I checked the website and all the drivers from Windows XP up to WIndows 10 are installed by the built in Windows drivers. This printer is at least 10 years old and has parallel port. If the port is showing LPT1 for the ports tab for the Printer's Properties, then the only other thing I can suggest is to run theDownload and run the Print and Scan Doctor, it will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Thank You.

Windows 7 redirecting LPT ports to Terminal Services is broken compaired to Vista and XP

Hello forum
We have encountered an issue with mapping LPT1 ports from any terminal server be it 2003 or 2008, the problem is the same.
Our XP clients and Vista clients works fine. Seems this issue is only present on Windows 7.
We have a program that requires printing to be done on the LPT1 port. The Printer connected to the client is driver less, it uses the raw output from the LPT port. So try not to think of it as a normal printer. We do not require drivers to be installed on
the server or client.
Our XP and Vista clients works perfectly by using: net use LPT1:
\\tsclient\lpt1:
And then printing to the LPT1 port.
When using Windows 7 clients to print, only 512 bytes are forwarded to the printer and the rest of the job is missing. If we print directly to
\\tsclient\lpt1: the print job is working and all is forwarded. But our program cannot print to UNC paths.
So what has changed in between Vista/XP and Windows 7 on the LPT port forwarding subject?
Our printer is a STAR TSP if you would like to know. The Win 7 Clients prints fine to the printer locally to the LPT port when not connected to the Terminal session.
Thanks for your time.

Hello Mobay,
Here are the conclusion about this situation:
Symptom:
The Win7 client could not re-direct LPT port to a local printer when connecting through a terminal server/remote desktop session.
Cause:
This is an known product issue of Win7, no QFE available yet.
Resolution:
Possible workaround with Windows XP SP3, RDP 6.1 (and Hotfix 972828).
Win7/Win2k8r2
Vista/Win2k8
WinXP/Win2k3
RDC 5.2
Succeed to redirect
RDC 6.1
Fail to redirect
Succeed to redirect
RDC 7.0
Fail to redirect
Fail to redirect
Succeed to redirect
So it's by design that you can't use LPT port through RDP on Win 7 client machine.

HP Deskjet 710c printer don't work on a Mac Mini

I have a Mac Mini with OSX 10.9 but my HP Deskjet 710c printer don't work. I install the HP driver package from Apple but I don't see my printer in the list. Who can help me out? Thanks.

Hi,
The printer is not supported on Mac OS X 10.9, you my find any supported printer listed in the following document:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#HP
As well no Mac supported is offered for the specific model within its driver download pages:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=59307&task=&
I afraid you will not be able to use the specific model with Mavericks, those are not compatible.

Custom size for DeskJet 710C

Hi,
I'm trying to set custom dimensions for the paper size for my DeskJet 710C.
I see from this link that I should be able to do it however when I view the different paper sizes in the list there is no option to select Custom Size.
The layout of the driver dialog is also different from the documentation but the driver is certainly for the 710C installed via Windows.
Should I be looking for an update. Can anybody help?
Many Thanks
Dan

What operating system are you using? In Vista (and perhaps XP?) you could do the following: go to the Printers folder and right click on a blank spot. Select "Run as Administrator", then "Server Properties". When the UAC prompt comes up click Continue. Next click the "Create a new form" checkbox, then select a name and appropriate size for the form. Next select Save Form, Close.
Next open the printer properties for the Deskjet 710c, the new form you defined previously should now be available. (You may need to restart the computer to have the new form show up.)

Deskjet 710c and D1460 dont print in windows 8.1 update x64

I cant get my two HP printers to work in the above OS. They work fine with the default drivers in the 32 bit version of the OS but I get an error the spooler has stopped. I ran the windows printer troubleshooter and it said the drivers needed to be isolated as the fix. Now nothing happens no print or error! Help

Hello Banger,
I see that you're trying to install your printers on Windows 8.1. I will try to help with this.
For your Deskjet 710c, the only way you'll be able to install this is by using an in OS driver. Simply meaning going to device/printer and "add a printer". You may need to run the Windows update to get the corresponding driver. This document: Install a Windows 8 Driver with Windows Update, should guide you through that. (even though it was for Win8.)
For the Deskjet D1460, you can download the software package here: HP Deskjet D1400/D2400/D4200 Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver. This is the only download available. Just let it extract and then do the same as above, the extraction will put the basic print drivers in the list to choose from. This avoids installing all the other software if you just want the basic driver files.
Try the above and let me know if it was able to help. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Deskjet 710c - Cannot align cartridges

Hi,
I have replaced the color cartridge on my printer but cannot make a cartrige alignment. When I try to make a alignment Explorer crashes.
Note that: I run Windows 7 (64); the printer can print any document; I can print a Test Page; I use a USB/Parrallel adapter; I installed the 64 bits Windows 7 patch.
What can I do to align the cartridges?
Thanks in advance

Hi @YBeaupre,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that your HP Deskjet 710c cannot align your cartridges, and I am happy to help!
After some searching, according to this guide, I Cannot Access HP Toolbox After Installing a Windows 7 in-OS Driver, there is no workaround for aligning the cartridges from the computer.
However, I would recommend to try removing both cartridges and re-inserting them. Otherwise if you have an XP computer you could install the drivers on it and align the cartridges that way.
Hope this information is useful, and have a wonderful day!

How do I install HP Deskjet 5700 on Windows 7?

When trying to install I got an error message saying my computer's Operating System is not supported.

Hi Redbone7.
I understand you're looking for instructions on how to install your Deskjet printer now that you have a new hard drive. I'd be happy to help you with this!
In order to find you the right drivers though, I do need to know which model of Deskjet you have and if you're using Windows or Mac. Once I know those two pieces of information I will be able to post back with either a link to the drivers or a link on how best to install your printer.
I look forward to hearing back from you, have a great day!!

Adobe PDF Writer (v5.0) won't install; can't find LPT1 port

I've searched extensively for an answer on this question, and the most common answer is no answer or use a newer PDF creator.
The department I support uses database software that was never programmed to support any PDF creator past PDF Writer, so all users of this software have Acrobat Professional 5.0.5 installed using the "Custom" option to include the PDF Writer.
All workstations run XP, sp3. I have never seen this problem on any other machine. I have installed version 5 on other machines with newer installations of Acrobat (7,8, and 9) with no functionality issues. The machine that won't install the PDF Writer had V8 installed. I have removed Acrobat V8 to try to get the V5 installation to run. I have tried running the V5 installation first without PDF Writer, and then adding in the PDF Writer.
In all cases, as soon as you click "Install" after checking "PDF Writer", the error "Acrobat PDF Writer requires a LPT1: printer port. Setup could not find this required port. The PDF Writer component will not be installed. To install PDF Writer, add a LPT1: port and run setup again" always appears, and the installation tries to continue without the PDF Writer.
This computer has a fully-functioning LPT1 port (as well as LPT2 and LPT3) which is not in use by any other printers (according to the printer properties display). XP shows the port under Device Manager as functioning properly, although I have both disabled/re-enabled the port, as well as uninstalling it and rebooting, at which point it re-installs properly.
All high-priority Windows XP updates are current and again, on similar machines, similarly imaged, I have never had this problem using the same media. I have tried installing a printer on this port and adding drivers. All machine users have Administrator privileges (unfortunately)
Due to the large quantity of data and software on this user's machine (and the fact that otherwise it runs great), I would REALLY rather not re-image the machine.
Any help or ideas will be GREATLY appreciated.

Hey, good idea, and I hadn't done it, but nothing is remaining from any previous Acrobat installs (according to the Cleanup Utility). I do pretty good registry cleanup on these machines as I work on them for other reasons/updates.
Other ideas?

Send 102 bit data through the LPT port??I have to send 102 bit to my interface board using the LPT port, through one of the data line and be able to read data from the input line, I don't know how to realize such a task.Thanks

Let me describe you the program I have to write:
I have to send 102 bit serialy using one of the data line of the LPT port to a device and be able to read back data sent from a device register throug one one of the input port pin for instance pin 10 of a DB25, and synchronize the transmission by the PC clock(for write and read). If fact I am using 5 output control(D0...D4) signal from the LPT port, RST, TXD, CLK, CE,TEST, one input data RXD (pin10)
So the program should work in normal mode (write data, read data), and test mode (use the write p
rocedure). Since I am quite new in Labview I am little lost and I need some support or exemple that use a way to send more than 32 bit via one data line(in my case 102bit= 8 bit COMMAD(MSB)+88 bit SPI DATA+6 bits CRC(LSB)) and be able to read them back, place them in the register and be able either to monitor or modify them.
I know that there are plenty of exemple but if I can gain time by being helped it would be great.
Can you please advise?

Hi Beni,
find attached a SPI.vi - minor changed from one of
my typical SPI's (LabVIEW 7.1). With some simple changes it will fit to your application.
The only thing you need to do - prepare
the bits for the input-array.
If you need some more comments - find one of my email
adresses in documentation of this vi.
Regards
Werner

Deskjet 710C

I have a DeskJet 710c printer which I used on my hp pavilion 503n. I just bought an HP p6732f PC. I used the CD and I got a USB to parallel converter cable to hook up the 710C. I also tried without the CD but still can't get it to work. I recently bought new cartridges so would like to use it with my new PC. What can I do to make it work?

Not all adapters work with 64-bit Windows, what brand is the adapter?
