    Tried installing Illustrator CC but ran out of disk space on primary drive... how can I install on secondary drive?

    Run_Esperanza how much space do you still have available on your primary drive?  It is possible to customize the installation destination within the Creative Cloud Desktop application.  You can find more details at Install and update apps - https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/install-apps.html.
    Please be aware that you will need disk space on the primary drive to installed shared components plus contain the temporary files for installation.

  • How can I install these printer drivers?

    I have a Brother HL-2220, which doesn't appear in any packages in the AUR (I already have CUPS and hplip installed, and the printer isn't yet recognized with cupsd running). Its drivers are available here, in both rpm and deb format. How can I install them?

    Read this on how to extract a deb file:
    http://www.g-loaded.eu/2008/01/28/how-t … -packages/
    Once it is extracted, you can create a package and then install it.
    Here is a PKGBUILD file for a similar package:
    PKGBUILD for cups wrapper
    PKGBUILD for lpr
    Your packages will likely have similar dependencies.
    Another method that is warned against is using the Debian package manager.  I do not know the results of doing this.

  • How do I install a printer driver, without the printer?

    You see, I don't want to print anything.
    I am using some CAD software and I use the “create PDF” function of the printer dialogue to make a PDF.  The problem is my drawing is quite large so I need to install a printer driver for a printer that handles larger paper (Epson 1280).  I have the driver, but it refuses to install without the printer being attached to it.

    I didn't post one.

  • Can't install a printer driver...

    Before I throw my iMac across the fields I remembered this forum had helped before.. I can't install a printer on my iMac.. when I go through system prefs, add printer, it sees the printer and manages to make it to looking for installable options then that window just hangs.. I can use the computer.. but the window stays and it never actually installs the drivers, i'm using a wireless connection. The same thing happened before with a previous Epson printer connecting by USB. In the end I managed to connect it to my Macbook.. but that's a sticking plaster rather than a cure.....
    Help...

    If you want to hook it up via wireless, it needs to support the wireless standard used by Apple, or be setup for printer sharing either in the wireless access point's own settings, or hooked up to another computer that has printer sharing turned on.    It would help to know the model of the printer, and not just the make, to be able to give you a concise answer on which of these methods is most likely to be fruitful.  And you are running Mac OS X 10.6 something on your machine, correct?

  • How can I get a printer driver for the hp psc 2410 photosmart?

    When I tried toadd the printer, there was a message saying that the printer driver for the 2400 series was available, but when I tried to download it, I received an error message saying that I couldn't download it because of a network error.  My Macbook is not on a network at the moment.  How can I get the driver so I can print?

    You can also install this update directly (not through app store):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl907
    If you want us to help more, you will need to give us more detailed info. "It didn't work" leaves me wondering exactly what you've done so far.
    For example, after clicking Add/+ and selecting the printer you want, have you waited for a full minute for the Mac to find the driver
    - OR -
    when it starts searching for driver, have you tried going to the pull-down menu where it says "Use: Auto-select," and choosing "Select Printer Software..." to make a manual selection?

  • How can I install to a drive other than C?

    I installed the CS6 Master Collection trial version. During the installation, I specified a destination folder on my D: drive (C: is a small SSD drive meant to hold only Windows).
    For the 32-bit versions of the programs, the shortcuts created in the Start Menu point to the D: location I specified during installation, but clicking on them gets me a "file not found" error, because the actual programs were placed on the C: drive. They work if I copy the installed Adobe folder and its full contents over to the appropriate D: location.
    The 64-bit versions are a different mess: Unlike with the 32-bit versions, the installer placed the 64-bit versions of the programs in the specified D: drive folder, but when I attempt to start the programs, I get the "Configuration Error: Please uninstall and reinstall the program; Error: 1" message. Presumably this is because some of the configuration files or settings the programs are looking for are actually pointing to locations on the C: drive, where the installer put them despite my directions. But I have no idea which files or settings they are, or how to find them.
    How can I fix these configuration errors and get the 64-bit versions working?
    If anyone from Adobe sees this, can you please fix the installer so that it installs the ENTIRE package where I specified, and that all the various pieces installed know where the rest of the pieces are in a non-C drive installation?
    My system:
    Windows 7 SP1
    Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM
    C drive: 60GB SSD (Windows system files)
    D drive: 1TB HDD (All other programs and files, including my Windows User folders)

    Yes, I have redirected my User folder to the D: drive.
    I know that some shared components must reside on the C: drive; that's fine. I just don't have room for the entire installation on there.
    The real issue here is that, when a drive other than C: is selected as the destination, the CS6 package installs into a broken state every time, out of the gate, on my system. Some components get installed to D: and some to C:, but the various components of the programs seem confused about what exists where, as shown below:
    I select a folder on D: as the destination folder for the install, and here is what I get:
    64-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the D: drive as specified, but attempting to start them results in a configuration error message stating that the program must be uninstalled and reinstalled, and lists "Error code: 1".
    32-bit versions of the package -- Program files are installed to the C: drive against what I specified. The shortcuts installed in the Start menu for the 32-bit versions point to the locations where these program files SHOULD be, on the D: drive. If the Adobe folder containing the program files is copied over to the correct location on D:, these programs function normally with no errors.
    I have the 32-bit versions working by copying the program files from C: to D:. I just want to get the 64-bit versions working as well.
    Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated; I'm really looking forward to testing the CS6 suite on my system!

    Hi Jaime,
    What you can do is go to the Support and Drivers Area of the Hp website by following the link http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
    - just type in the Version of of the Photosmart you have, and then follow that by the Version of the MAC OS that you are running
    - you will want to do this from the computer you are wanting to install the printer on.
    simply download the Driver and Install and that Should Assist you in getting that printer set up on that computer as if it was coming from the Disk itself

  • How can I install a printer?

    Hello, I've just started with Solaris 10. I can't understand what I have to do for installing my printer (hp dj 5550 over usb). Can anybody help me.
    Is it possible that the reason of the problem is that the printer has got usb and a parallel interface?

    Usb printers do work with Solaris 9 and 10. Take a look at this program:
    /usr/sadm/admin/bin/printmgr
    It makes setting up printers pretty easy:)

    I got it 2 weeks ago, but my laptop don't have CD-drive. When I go to  Software & Driver downloads  and write my type C310b it always open me for type C310a with note:If your operating system is not listed, HP does not have software or driver downloads available for this product in that operating system.
    can someone help please? HP have very bad support.

  • How can i get a printer driver for my HP desk jet 3050a for mountain lion

    I just bought HP deskjet printer for my son 3050 seriers and how we cant print.   We need a driver to support mountain lion 10.8 and at the HP website they have up to 10.7. help please.

    I have the HP 3050A and I have just updated to ML. One of the first things I tried was printing/scanning, works OK, I presume ML includes the correct drivers if you already have it working in Lion.
    Sorry cannot give more information other than that it worked for me.
