How to clean from print driver hp B209a-M on windows 8

How do I clean my print heads from the print driver hp B209a-M on windows 8

Hi rcstipe,
Welcome to the HP forums!
I see you have a Photosmart B209a and are wanting to know how to clean the printhead via the software on Windows 8. I will definitely do my best to assist you with this.
There is full feature software for your printer for Windows 8, so as you would have with the few previous versions of Windows, it's done through the HP Solution Center. If you don't have the HP software installed yet, please download and run the HP Printer Install Wizard to get the software installed.
If you're not sure where to locate the clean printhead function once the software is installed, please have a look at Step four: Clean the printhead under Solution six: Print and evaluate a print quality diagnostic report and troubleshoot defects in this Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems document to see where to locate it.
Hope to hear back from you soon!

  • How to Install 64-bit "Generic / Text Only" print driver on a 32-bit Windows 2003 Server?

    Hi All,
    In a nutshell, I need to Install the 64-bit Generic / Text Only print driver on a 32-bit Windows 2003 Server’s “Generic / Text Only 32-bit print queue.
    The problem is that there is no Driver-Disk to get the drivers. I’ve been able to isolate 14 files related to the 64 bit drivers from a Windows 7 x64 computer and copy them to a temp folder on the Windows 2003 x32 server. When I try to add the 64 bit driver
    to the Windows 2003 x32 server,  it wants a *.inf file, which I don’t have and can’t find.
    Because Microsoft will no longer support Windows XP, my client is replacing all of their Point-of-Sale Windows XP x32 systems with Windows 7 x64. They use Terminal Services (Remote Desktop) to connect to a Windows 2003 x32 server to use the POS system. The
    POS software redirects LPT1 back to the local Generic / Text Only printer. This works great for XP x32.
    When we use the Terminal Services POS software on the new Windows 7 x64 system, none of the labels print out because it’s redirected in 32-bit back to the local Windows 7 x64 Generic / Text Only 64-bit printer.
    This will be a huge issue for me if I can’t get this to work.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions and help! -Rob

  • Since you can no longer backup to disk, how to restore from external drive without losing all ratings and playlists

    since you can no longer backup to disk, how to restore from external drive without losing all ratings and playlists?

    My own opinion is that you should install the later appropriate version of Silverkeeper. That said, I would in fact recommend if you can wait a few days for an answer, that you email the La Cie Silverkeeper backup team via the email link on the site at http://www.lacie.com/silverkeeper/
    They are careful to say they are not officially providing a backup service, but when I emailed them with a query regarding usage about a year ago after downloading Silverkeeper for myself, I got a reply within a couple of days that cleared up my question.

  • Printer Driver Support for Computers Running Windows 8 Release Preview

    Printer driver support for computers running Windows 8 Release Preview
    HP is working to help customers have the best experience with HP printers connected to PCs running the final release of Windows 8. The pre-release time is a development period when HP develops and tests printer driver solutions. HP’s current plan is for Windows 8 compatible printers to be available when the new operating system is released to the public. HP is working with Microsoft to include drivers in the Windows 8 operating system for HP printers introduced in recent years.
    There may be a variety of sources for a printer driver/solution for your HP printer on a computer running Windows 8 Release Preview.
    inOS:
    An in-Operating System (inOS) driver is a basic driver that is included within the operating system. You do not need to download or install any software from HP. Windows 8 Relase Preview contains several inOS drivers. If an inOS driver is available for your printer, you will have at least basic print capability with USB and Network and basic scan capability with USB only (if your printer supports scanning).
    Windows Update:
    There might be a more functional or more up-to-date driver available for your printer through Microsoft Windows Update. If Windows Update is enabled, then the Windows Update process activates automatically when you connect (USB and Network connections) the printer to the computer. It searches online for the most recent print driver on the Windows Update site. If the online driver is more functional than the currently installed driver in Windows 8, the computer downloads and installs this driver.
    HP Supplied Printer Driver/Solutions:
    Although HP does not formally support any pre-release versions of Windows Operating Systems, including Windows 8 Release Preview, we may supply some full functionality drivers* prior to the official release of Windows 8. These drivers may be supplied as a courtesy to our valued HP customers through this Support Forum, though no formal support will be available otherwise. We welcome feedback within these support forums. Please check back for further updates as the official release of Windows 8 approaches.
    * Full feature drivers provide full product functionality, plus valuable software to help you get the most out of your printer.

  • How to uninstall a printer driver?

    In the office where I work with my Mac there's a Canon copier/scanner model iR2318. Months ago I downloaded and installed the Lion compatible drivers required that worked fine.
    Yesterday (with no reason, no changes, nothing at all: just working) the printer started to refuse to print as it asked for a different paper format: A4 or Letter. Despite many attempts to specifically send print jobs in A4, which is the paper format loaded in the tray, the printer continued to refuse all prints.
    Today I ended up removing the printer from the list, as it became unnecessary, and I also liked to uninstall the printer driver as well, since Canon released a newer version.
    Currently, when trying to reinstall the printer, 2 drivers are displayed: UK and US. This lets me assume that those 2 drivers are still installed in my system: I wanted to remove both of them and start from scratch by reinstall the driver and he printer as the system was new.
    How can I remove the driver, so that Lion won't recognize it and that I could make a clean install of the previous working printer?
    Please…as a former Windows user, the most unwanted answer is "try to recover your system"!

    Once deleted those files, when installing a new printer, the list of available drivers still shows the deleted ones. Are they truly available or is the list that has not been updated? And, yes: I restarted my system after deleting the driver folder.

  • PS gets wrong paper dimensions from printer driver

    Since yesterday I have trouble with PS CS5 und Mac OS X 10.7.5 as PS does not get correct paper dimensions from standard paper sizes or custom paper sizes from my Epson printer driver. Before yesterday I had no trouble, all went fine. Til Yesterday I printed mostly on roll paper, but yesterday I had to print on a A3+ sheet of paper and PS got in trouble and showed me instead of 32 by 48 cm of paper size than 42 by 59 cm in print dialog with preview. Thil than I have this behavior on all paper sizes but only in Photoshop CS5. All other Apps on my Mac which uses the Mac print dialog show me the correct paper dimenions.
    Any help appreciated.

    I bet that, if you check carefully and with almost pathological tenacity, you will find that the "odd" sizes are creeping into one of the settings in one of the dialog boxes but not in others.
    When something happens to an application "suddenly", that's a clear size to nuke and re-set the preferences, but NOT manually.  Use the key combo at launch.
    To re-create the preferences files for Photoshop, start the application while holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file?"
    Note: If this process doesn't work for you while you're using a wireless (Bluetooth) keyboard, attach a wired keyboard and retry.
    Important: If you re-create the preferences by manually deleting the Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings file, make sure that you only delete that file. If you delete the entire settings folder, you also delete any unsaved actions or presets.
    Reinstalling Photoshop does not remove the preferences file. Before reinstalling Photoshop, re-create your preferences.
    NEW Video! Julieanne Kost created a video that takes you through two ways of resetting your Photoshop preferences. The manual preference file removal method is between 0:00 - 5:05. The keyboard shortcut method is between 5:05 - 8:18. The video is located here:
    How to Reset Photoshop CS6’s Preferences File | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV
    Mac OS
    Important: Apple made the user library folder hidden by default with the release of Mac OS X 10.7. If  you require access to files in the hidden library folder to perform Adobe-related troubleshooting, see How to access hidden user library files.

  • Got all my photos and LR library onto external HD. How to clean my internal drive?

    OK guys here where I sit and need some insight on how to clean up my internal drive.
    I have a new MBP and originally imported all my photos from my PC into iPhoto. Then I installed LR3 and it created the library on the internal SSD drive. But I did not move any photos from iPhoto into there yet.
    Then I installed an external raid drive just for my photos.
    So in watching some of the LightroomLab tutorials, they said to create 2 folders on the fresh external drive. One for Photos and one for the LR library. So I did that and have lightroom now pointing to that index on the external drive.
    Coming from a PC I was having a hard time grasping all this import/export stuff so I just found where all my iPhoto pictures were stored on my internal drive and manually copied them over the the external drive Photo directory.......Bad move I found out. No order what so ever. But still did not move them into LR yet.
    So today I found another lightroomLab video showing me how to export out of iPhoto to a desktop folder and they exported very nicely organized in dated folders. So I finally imported into LR and moved all the photos from that desktop folder onto my external drive during the import. I am very happy with the organization now in the LR GUI.
    So now I ask of you whats the best way to clean everything from my internal drive. Can I just delete the iPhoto library and will that delete all my photos from my internal drive? And what about the initial LR install? Can I just delete the whole LR folder that contains the initial library stuff?
    Sorry for all the questions but I am almost there and where I want to be and just want to do the cleanup right so I don't lose anything I am supposed to have.
    I really want to be a MAC person and little by little I am understanding more and more.

    I dont know anything about iPhoto, but in terms of LR, just delete the photos from your Mac Finder. Then they will show as "missing" in LR. You can then update the location (right click the folder) to one of the versions of the folder that you have on your external.
    Maybe you should practice this on a dummy folder or two so that you are comfortable with the process. FYI, LR can only update the location of one folder at a time. Having a parent folder on your internal that is indentical to the parent on the external would be ideal.
    If you already have a separate catalog on your external that has all of your photos and edits on it., then just delete the internal files with the finder. Deleting the catalog will only delete the metadata and changes that you made to the images. the photos will remain on your internal drive.
    There are a lot of different methods of doing this (like "export folder as catalog"), and different people will have their own favorites.
    I'm not sure exactly would your folder heiarchies and catalogs look like, so make sure that it makes sense to you before deleting away.

  • How to deleted unwanted printer driver?

    I have recently re-installed my printer driver and would like to delete the old one.  Does anyone know how to do it?

    If you mean printers in the Add-a-Printer box, you added the new one with the [+] icon, and you select the old one and press the [-] Icon to remove it.
    If you mesn you downloaded new software drivers, the new one replaces the old one and no one here has ever found the old software driver to be an issue. (It is probably deleted.)

  • How to connect a printer to Airport in WIFI with Windows

    Hi,
    I just would like to know how to connect my printer (Samsung) to my Airport network through WIFI (My computer is working with Windows).
    Thanks

    Well the easiest would be to plug your printer directly into your extreme using either the USB or Ethernet connection.
    Make sure you then install bonjour and use the printer wizard to convert your printer...

  • Used iMac (fall 2006) has no OS.  How to install from flash drive?

    We purchased a used iMac from Notre Dame University.  The hard drive has been completely wiped clean, as is their policy.  We have a USB flash drive with
    Mavericks on it, but when we follow the installation instructions, nothing happens.  We get the icon "OSX BASE", but when we select it, the mac goes
    to a gray screen with a flashing question mark and never moves from there.  Any advice is helpful.

    You will need to call Apple and order a set of replacement disks for your specific iMac Model, or purchase a Snow Leopard DVD.
    "Fall 2006," is not a good enough description, as there were both Mid 2006 and Late 2006 iMac 17" models and a Late 2006 iMac 20" model.
    All of these models shipped with versions of Tiger 10.4, and all are compatible with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The Late 2006 models can be further upgraded to Lion 10.7.5, provided that they have the minimum 2 Gigs of RAM.
    None of these iMacs would be compatible with Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite.
