How do I get the HP Laserjet P3005 to work in Vista?

I have tried every driver that is listed in the download drivers area. I have connected the printer via usb, it says the generic driver won't work.  Can not get the printer to recognize. Now, when I plug the printer in to the usb port, it shows up in Device Mgr as Generic USB hub.  I can't seem to find any solution to install this printer.
This question was solved.

Sorry, my bad.
run the file and take a note of the extracted path.
(e.g C:\HP LJP3005 PCL6 Driver)
Connect the USB Cable to your PC and ignore the Automatic detection.
Enter Control Panel > Printers
Click the Add Printer Toolbar and select a local printer.
Select the listed USB port (e.g USB001 or DOT4 USB) and click next
Below the printers list, click 'Have Disk'.
Enter the extracted folder location, then click Browse and select the hpc300xc file.
Now click Open and then OK.
If you may see several printer models, select the exact one and click OK till completing the Wizard.

  • How do I get the built in microphone to work on my IMac?  Camera works fine, but I can't record voice.

    How do I get the built-in microphone to work on my IMac?  Camera works fine, but I can't record sound.

    I always assummed that the mic was part of iSight (intertwined?).  The mic is situated right next to iSight.  It would seem to me the solutions would be the same some what.
    Regarding the OP, I also suspect his/her problem is hardware.  It's rather unusual for the internal mic to not work yet the iSight does.

    You don't. Since you have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.

  • How do i get the share music feature to work?

    How do i get the share music feature to work i have already selected to share them on my network, but i went to another computer and i don't know hot to see the songs im sharing.

    One computer on the network would need to have "Share my music" activated on the Sharing tab of the CTRL-, screen.
    Another computer on the network would need to having "Look for shared music" activated on the Sharing tab. Then so long as there are no firewalls are other obstructions that keep one computer form seeing another, the first person's library will appear in the Source pane on the second person's computer.
    The limit is five shared libraries per network.

  • How do I get the on-off button to work again?

    I have an iPod nano, 6th generation. The on-off button has stopped working, therefore I can't turn off the display screen until it does it itself and when I'm away from my wall charger, I can't turn the iPod on to change a song.
    The button doesn't even click anymore, it just gives a little push but no click.
    How do I get this fixed? My warranty has just run out, too.

    Hi, madperson! And thanks for your reply. Yesterday, when I posted my query, I had already ran FF in safe mode and checked all (and few) ext/addons I have. The problem persisted, so I posted my question. This morning, however, the glitch seems to have cleared itself! The New Tab button and the "+" icon both work like before! Don't ask me what happened, I could not even begin to try to explain. Anyway, here are the ext/addons I have: Norton Vulnerability Protection; Personas; Flash Video Downloader; Groowe Search Toolbar (which was suggested by Mozilla); and Yahoo Toolbar. Thanks again for your help, I appreciate it.

  • How do I get the digital av adaptor to work hooked to hdmi tv?

    Just purchased the AV adaptor to hook up my Ipad2 up to my Plasma TV via the HDMI cord and first thing I get on the Ipad screen is this is not suported.  When I cancel out of that I get nothing on the Plasma screen.  How do I get whats on the Ipad on the TV.  I was told it would work.

    What app are you streaming this video from? The digital adaptor does not mirror on the iPad 1 so if the app you are using is not set up to do video output using the adapter it will not work.

    Hi,
    under windows i cant get my right-mouse button to work via trackpad. it will simply just click the left one (primairie).
    im aware that scrolling and tapping doesn't work, but right mouse click should work right?

    You need two fingers on the trackpad before clicking to activate the right click. The button is essentially a single click no matter how left or how right you click.
