How do install an OS 9 print driver if I can't startup in 9?

That pretty much sums up the issue. My G4 Powerbook will run classic but won't startup in 9. I have a print driver installer for 9 but it returns odd errors when I try to run the installer.
Thanks

If the printer in question has a Mac OS X driver, you don't need to install the Mac OS 9 driver into a system which is being used as Classic for Mac OS X 10.4; instead, use the LaserWriter 8 driver in the Chooser.

  • How to install samsung clp-365w printer driver to 10.8.2

    I have tryed with new software from samsungs suppert and also without samsung driver from computers printer/fax setup. I have also changerd my download setup in privacy so that downloadin from everywhere is possible.
    Samsung says that the software is supporting 10.8.2 version of mountain lion and also say that there has not been other similar complaints.
    So is there some setup or something what could be preventing installation?

    Dear everyone with Mac installing problems! As you will see from my previous posts I have tried everything and still my intallation failed everytime. I have now re-installed the operating system Mountain Lion, backed everything up etc, and now it connects to the printer fine!
    I think it may be a corrupeted file problem somewhere on the computer.
    Hope this helps people!

  • How to install a samsung clp 310 driver in the time capsule

    how to install a samsung clp 310 driver in the time capsule ?

    You do not install the printer driver on the Time Capsule, you install it on your Mac.
    Check with Samsung Support for details on how to download and install the driver to your Mac.
    Then use System Preferences > Print & Scan to see if your printer is compatbile. Not all printers are compatible with the USB port on the Time Capsule, so if your printer does not appear, it ls likely not compatible for this purpose.

  • How to install ovi suite to a drive other than C:?...

    how to install ovi suite to a drive other than c:??? my c: drive is almost full with other partitions perfectly free to install it, how do i do that? can i use previous versions of ovi suite to use with my e63? at this point, i'm unable to use ovi suite at all, because there's no room to install it on my c: drive.
    allllllllso there's one more thing, when i originally had tried installing ovi suite on my computer i had more than 1gb free. after installing it i on'ly had 500mb free. i had only intended for it to use a very small amount of space, and since i also use my c: drive for virtual memory i quickly uninstalled it, looking for an option i'd maybe skipped over while installing it the first time. no luck. anyways, when i looked in the add/remove programs control panel the installed size of ovi suite was only 40-50mb. even after uninstalling ovi suite the extra memory space that seemed to all of a sudden taken up by the installation stayed used.
    when looking at the file sizes of everything on my hard drive, (including system files and paging file) there is still a descreprency between the amount of memory used and the size of all files total on the drive. at this point im quite disgusted and disapointed in ovi suite as i'm mostly unable to use it to connect my phone to my computer and i'm also having problems with the CA101 cable as well. i guess i'll have to go check for another cable.
    nokia!!! wake up and fix yo **bleep**!!!!
    anyone have any solutions for the main problem? (installing to a drive other than c? is there support for this option in any of the new beta versions? can that be included in the newest betas? i'm suuuuuure i'm not the only one begging for this option!!!

    Hi ostrenga4, sorry to hear about your experiences.
    When installing Nokia Ovi Suite to PC, Windows makes "system restoration points", which are available to restore operating system to previous condition, if something goes wrong, for example in driver installation.
    You can change install location of Nokia Ovi Suite with following:
    - Download Nokia Ovi Suite install package from Nokia Ovi Suite pages
    - Start Windows Command prompt
    - From Command prompt, navigate to folder containing Nokia Ovi Suite install package, which you downloaded
    - Start Nokia Ovi Suite install package with command line "Nokia_Ovi_Suite_webinstaller.exe /TARGET="D:\TestDir\Test"
    - This results, that Nokia Ovi Suite installer creates folder D:\TestDir\Test (if that doesn't exist) and installs Nokia Ovi Suite there.
    - Unfortunately, Windows Installer still keeps installer cache files and system restoration points in C: drive (or whatever your system drive is)
    As you can see, this is possible, but it is very much recommend to have enough space for installing software into system drive.
    Cheers, Samuli

    How to install PC companion on other drive??  (My SSD on C: only have 5gb)
    PC companion v2.1 dont ask to install the soft on a drive! lol!
    Its standard any application setup, in the world, offer you a path or drive to choose to install.  Why Sony not add this in the setup?

    Not true - If a program needs to download files to perform certain tasks then it will only install to the C: drive so as in this case when you perform system updates or system repairs the firmware files are downloaded to the root ie: C: drive

  • Should I install a 32 bit printer driver on a 64 Operating Sytem?

      I have an HP Officejet 6700e wireless printer.  It is used by 2 computers.  The Operating Systems on the computers are as follows:
        1 – HP Pavilion laptop using Windows 8.1, 64 bit.
        2 – HP Pavilion laptop using Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit.
      I noticed there are BOTH 32 bit and 64 bit printer drivers for Windows 7 and Windows 8 & 8.1.
     I have 2 questions:
      First, since both computers use 64 bit operating systems, shouldn't I install the 64 bit printer driver?
      Second, is there any advantage to installing the 32 bit printer driver on a 64 bit operating system?
    Thanks very much, Terry
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Install the driver which  matches the operating system and the bit type (32-bit or 64-bit)  that is installed on each PC.
    Second, is there any advantage to installing the 32 bit printer driver on a 64 bit operating system? There is no  advantage at all. It would actually be a bad practice unless the printer driver is compatible with both bit types.

    When I try to install my Canon i9100 printer on my HP laptop running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, Windows cannot locate a driver.  Visiting the Canon website, I find an update module for the Windows driver.  Canon says the printer MUST be installed using Windows Updater before their driver update can be installed.  I have tried everything, but I cannot get Windows to find a driver.  Windows Updater says that my computer is Up To Date.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thank you,

  • How to install HP Deskjet 990cxi printer on laptop...

    I have spent two days trying to install my excellent HP Deskjet 990cxi on my new laptop running Win7 Home Premium on an AMD 64-bit processor.  I want to do two things:
    to set the printer up to run direct from a USB port on my laptop.  Having done this, I then want
    to set the printer up on BT Home Hub Type 2A, connected through the hub's USB, as a network computer.
    So far under windows, this has proved a huge problem.  It seems that the printer settings file is in 32-bit, but in the attempt to install the printer through the Windows "add printer" in Devices and Printers, and after a Windows update on the program to find Deskjet 990c, I run into a brick wall with the printer failing to install.  I get the following message: "Printer driver was not installed.  Access is denied  ".  Yet I am loading the printer drivers as Administrator.
    By contrast, I also run Ubuntu 11.04 linux on this computer under Windows.  
    Ubuntu loaded the 990cxi drivers in an instant when it was connected via USB to the laptop; and more importantly,
    Ubuntu set the printer us as a network printer running off the BT Home Hub type 2A and it worked perfectly.  I even tested it by sending a graphics file from my garden to the printer indoors and the quality was perfect.
    So the observation is this: If Ubuntu can load both printer settings on the same laptop, why is Windows 7 such a trial?  Can HP or BT Customer Service do anything about this?

    This might help:
    I had huge problems with my HP Laserjet 5M on getting a Homehub 3.0 - I'd used a Sky router before and had similar problems at the start with that. The BT Homehub is a very poor piece of equipment and the BT support staff (in India) are absolutely useless, they try to help and got me to allow them to remotely go on my screen and control my computer - so I could see exactly what they were doing - the computer equivalent of a bogbrush to a blocked bog - not impressive and 2 days and over 2 hours on the phone got me nowhere.
    Finally found the instructions - or similar I'd used some years ago on the Sky hub:
             Instructions on how to set a LaserJet 5M for IP address use on a network. Other printers models may may be similar.
             This is necessary on Mac OSX 10.6+ due to the loss of Appletalk support which made it much easier to configure with Default.
             • Press Menu, repeatedly, the following messages appears on the control panel: HP MIO MENU
             • Press ITEM. - CFG NETWORK=NO* will appear.
             • Press the PLUS button once. - CFG NETWORK=YES* will appear.
             • Press SELECT .
             • Press ITEM repeatedly until CFG TCP/IP=NO* appears.
             • Press the PLUS button. CFG TCP/IP=YES* will appear.
             • Press SELECT.
             For DHCP based IP addressing:
             • Press ITEM until BOOTP=YES* appears.
             • When using BootP or DHCP, keep the setting BOOTP=YES*. If set to BOOTP=NO*, then press the PLUS to change it to BOOTP=YES.
             • Press SELECT to set, then GO.
             • The BootP or DHCP server will configure the TCP/IP parameters on the HP Jetdirect.
             • No other TCP/IP configuring is necessary.
             • Print a self-test page to verify the IP settings.
             • Press Menu until TEST MENU appears.
             • Press Item until PRINT SELF TEST is displayed.
             • Press SELECT .
             • If the test page does not show the correct settings, power cycle the printer and reprint the test page.
             When set for BootP the lower right corner of the test page display something like:
             TCP/IP STATUS: READY
             HOST NAME: 192.168.2.10
             CONFIG BY RARP/BOOTP
             IP ADDRESS: 192.168.2.10
             SUBNET MASK: 255.255.255.0
             DEF. GATEWAY 192.168.2.1
             SYSLOG SERVER: NOT SPECIFIED
             IDLE TIMEOUT (SECONDS): 90
             SNMP GET CMTY NAME: ALL
             SNMP SET CMTY NAME: NONE
             BOOTP/DHCP SERVER: 0.0.0.0
             If you want to set the printer to a static IP address:
    ALSO if you do NOT have a JetDirect follow the instructions below:
             • Press ITEM until BOOTP=YES* appears.
             • Press the PLUS button. BOOTP=NO will appear.
             • Press ITEM . IP BYTE 1=192 will appear.
             • Press the PLUS or MINUS button until the value of the first byte of the IP address appears on the control-panel display.
             • Press SELECT to set that byte.
             • Press ITEM to continue.
             • Repeat to configure the remaining bytes of the IP address you wan to set. e.g., IP BYTE 2=168 , IP BYTE 3=2, IP BYTE 1=10) = 192.168.2.10
             • Repeat Steps to configure the subnet mask bytes (SM BYTE 1=255, SM BYTE 2=255, SM BYTE 3=255 , SM BYTE 4=0) = 255.255.255.0
             • Repeat Steps to configure the syslog server IP address (LG BYTE 1=0,LG BYTE 2=0, LG BYTE 3=0, LG BYTE 4=0) = 0.0.0.0 (Mine had the BYTE 4=1 and only when I reset it to BYTE 4=0 did everything go correctly).
             • You can leave this at 0.0.0.0 if not needed.
             • Repeat Steps to configure the default gateway (GW BYTE 1=192, GW BYTE 2=168, GW BYTE 3=2, GW BYTE 4=1) = 192.168.2.1 (often it is automatically set by your router and you do not have to do anything other than check this is correct).
             • Configure the timeout (TIMEOUT=90). You can leave the default at 90 seconds.
             • Press GO .
             • Print a self-test page to verify the IP settings.
             • Press Menu until TEST MENU appears.
             • Press Item until PRINT SELF TEST is displayed.
             • Press SELECT .
             • If the test page does not show the correct settings, power cycle the printer and reprint the test page.
             When set to a static value it looks something like:
             TCP/IP STATUS: READY
             CONFIG BY FRONT PANEL/TELNET
             IP ADDRESS: 192.168.2.10
             SUBNET MASK: 255.255.255.0
             DEF. GATEWAY 192.168.2.1
             SYSLOG SERVER: 0.0.0.0
             IDLE TIMEOUT (SECONDS): 90
             Add the printer.
             • To add the printer on Mac OSX 10.6+, open the Printer & Fax Preference panel.
             • Unlock if locked.
             • Press + to add.
             • Select HP JetDirect - Socket from the Protocol pulldown menu.
    BUT if you do not have a JetDirect then click the Line Printer Daemon – LPD option instead.
             • In the address field, enter the IP address from the Test Page printout.
             • Print Using should set itself to LaserJet 5M from the built-in drivers in Mac OSX 10.6+ within a few seconds if it can communicate with the printer.
             • Type in a name you want to give the printer. It will use its IP Address as the name if nothing is entered.
             • Type in a location if you desire. Not sure where this shows up.
             • Press Add.
             • The Installable Options are determined and the printer is added.
    NOTE – ref users without a JetDirect:
                      • If you get a message telling you the printer is busy – you have probably indicated JetDirect or Internet Printing Protocol - IPP option in the Protocol pulldown menu by mistake – delete the printer and go back and reset it with the Line Printer Daemon – LPD option instead.
    Good luck.
