How to recognize HP 130 printer on Windows 7?

Macbook Pro-retina does not see the saved folders by Windows 7.

Mac printing has nothing in common with Windows Printing. That they do not recognize each other's Printer setup data is not at all surprising.

How can install acrobat 8 print in windows 8.1?

I have seen others that have been unable to print to PDF when using Acrobat 8 Standard and Windows 8.1. Is there a solution?

Do Acrobat and Distiller open? If so, open Acrobat and update it to the most recent version (if possible). For the print you will most likely find that the print driver does not install and also that AcroTray is not functional. If that is the case, install another color PS driver (either from Adobe or maybe one of the HP drivers).
Because AcroTray likely fails, you will have to print to file (so set the port in the driver to FILE). Then open the file in Distiller to get a PDF. I have not heard of anyone being successful with AA8 on Win8, but that does not mean you can't be successful. I can only make suggestions based on an educated guess. With AA7, I was able to follow the procedure above to get AA7 to work on both 32 and 64-bit versions of Win7. I am guessing you may also be able to do that on Win8.

Printing through Windows?

I have my printer hooked up to Time Capsule and can print from my Macbook to it no problem. I would like to print from Windows (on my Macbook through Fusion) to the same printer. How do I install that printer in Windows? Do I need to use Bonjour since the printer is already on my network? The printer does not show up in Windows at all right now.
Thanks much

I installed bonjour on Windows, and the bonjour printer wizard did the job.

Printing through Windows on Mac with printers set up on Time Capsule?

I have my printer hooked up to Time Capsule and can print from my Macbook to it no problem. I would like to print from Windows (on my Macbook through Fusion) to the same printer. How do I install that printer in Windows? Do I need to use Bonjour since the printer is already on my network? The printer does not show up in Windows at all right now.
Thanks much

I managed to work through this problem in 2 different installations.
In one case Bonjour did find the printer in the Bonjour Add Printer Wizard(an Epson CX-5000)
In the second case - a Brother MFC-6800 - the printer did not show up as a choice in the Bonjour Add Printer Wizard.
You might check that the drivers for the printer that is attached to the TC are installed on the Windows system.
In this case I know the Brother drivers were installed but they don't seem to support a remote print server set up. However, the Bonjour Add Printer Wizard offered 2 choices - a generic PCL and a generic PS printer. I chose the generic PS printer and that worked....
Printing with a print server - which is what we're talking about here - is something that some printers do better than others. In my experience some printers, particularly their Windows drivers, sort of do their own thing which isn't conducive to playing by the rules which is important with print servers.

How to do a Screen Print with Pro keyboard?

Hi everyone,
I have tried a multitude of button combination but I cannot figure out how to do a Screen Print in Windows XP...
I am using a Pro Keyboard from Apple which has black keys.
Can anyone help me please?
Rio.

Hi salmeryigit,
Thanks you for your response...Funny enogh...F14 was one key I had not tried and it worked!
Now I am wondering if there is a multiple Key combination that would permit me to Manually Crop only the Part on the Screen I that I need?
Ex: In OS X I use: Shift + Comand + 4 which works like a charm as it saves the pict file onto my desktop.
May I also ask you what document you consulted to get the first answer I asked?
I do appreciate your help.

Windows 7 recognizes my HP Printer but won't install the driver for it

I just bought a brand new computer with Windows 7 64bit installed on it.
After hooking it up, I connected my HP psc 2175 All In One Printer to it.
Windows 7 recognized that I had an HP psc 2100 series printer and said that it would go online to look for the driver to install.
After 10 minutes of searching, it tells me that I need "troubleshooting" which means "go look for it yourself."
I went to the HP website and the only help I found was a page telling me how to get my Windows 7 to recognize my printer.
My Windows 7 already recognizes it.
What I need is an explanation about to make Windows 7 download the proper Printer Driver to allow my printer to work.
Any help?
Does this driver not exist for Windows 7 and HP PSC 2175 All In One Printer?

So the HP page says there is no driver at all for my Printer with Windows 7 ( Lucky Me) and that I need to configure my Windows 7 to use the automatic Windows Update to find a driver to install.
As I mentioned in my original post, it already did this.
It recognized my printer and then starting searching for a driver with no luck.
Anyway, next on the HP page it tells me to connect my printer to my computer with a USB cable and then Windows 7 will look for the most appropriate driver to make my printer work.
So I connect the USB cable and it dings once and that's it.
No message.
No downloading.
No status bar.
Nothing.
It just dinged to recognize that I plugged in the USB cable.
According to the HP page, I should get a window telling me that My Automatic Windows Update is complete.
Mine apparently didn't even start.
So now what should I do?
How can I make it download the generic printer driver without just expecting it to do so simply because a USB cable was inserted?

How to print from windows 7 pc on time capsule network?

I added a new pc with windows 7 on my time capsule network. Existing network includes 2 macbook pros and 1 mac mini with boot camp and windows xp. I have been using the windows xp with bootcamp on the mac mini and printing from it for a couple years. We don't share files between the notebooks and mac mini, just internet access and printing. My bootcamp side got too full which is why I added the new windows pc (yuk) for my windows programs but I cannot figure out how to get the windows pc to recognize my printer connected to airport time capsule. I installed the printer software and drivers and connected it with usb and printed but when I connect the printer back to time capsule the pc doesn't see it. Also, I downloaded bonjour from apple site but still no go. Any help is appreciated. As you can probably tell, I only know enough to be dangerous. That's why I love my Macs, they just work!

The problem is you loaded the printer directly and now do not have it plugged in.. so delete the printer in the control panel.. then setup the printer again.. this time connect to it as network printer. The bonjour should make it available as a network resource..
Tell me if you still run into trouble doing that. You may need to load the IP of the TC manually..
Window7 has higher security level than xp.. and that can sometimes also cause issues.
Are you using SMB compliant names for the TC, wireless and printer??
Can the windows 7 computer get internet via the TC? Can you ping it?
Look up how to reduce the security level in windows to match xp.. I don't remember the details but you have to do some nifty footwork.

How do I share my printer between my two Windows 7 systems?

Some users find that they have a non-networked printer that worked fine in a mixed Windows environment, but found their two Windows 7 printers (one host and one client) are not able to share the printer.
Windows 7 handles networking differently than previous versions of Windows.
The easiest way to get started with sharing printers between multiple Windows 7 computers is to setup a HomeGroup. A HomeGroup is a way to authorize different Windows 7 computers to talk to each other and share resources. Microsoft has a good article about HomeGroups that has links to various guides.
Once the HomeGroup is setup, the next step is to setup a host for the USB printer.
This article from Microsoft details how to enable file and printer sharing, sharing the printer, and the basic steps of adding the printer.
The first two sections are fine as they are, but I would like to expand on adding a shared printer to the other Windows 7 computers.
This process tends to have the greatest success with sharing printers in Windows 7. Most USB only printers do have a driver available in Windows.
1. Go to Start>Devices and Printers.
2. Click on Add a printer at the top.
3. While it is a networked printer, it is not the current network standard printer. Select Add a local printer.
4. Select Create a new port with a local port for type.
5. Enter \\<host computer name>\<printer name> without the < > symbols. The host computer name is the name of the computer that has the printer attached to it. If you do not know that name, go to the host computer and go to Start>Right-click Computer>Properties. The computer name will be listed here. The printer's share name was selected in a previous step in the Microsoft article.
6. Click Ok and the printer driver screen will appear. Click on Windows Update to ensure it is the most current list.
7. Select the printer model from that list.
8. Follow the rest of the prompts.
At the end of these steps, the printer should be shared from the host computer to the other Windows 7 computers.
Some important notes about this setup:
1. Only printing will be functional.
2. The host computer must be on for printing to work.
3. The host computer could enter standby or suspended mode. This will interrupt the shared printer on the other systems.
With these steps completed, the printer should be functional on the Windows 7 computers once again.

How Do I Redirect LPT1 Printer Port to 'LOCAL Printer' in Windows 7

I have previously redirected LPT1 Port to a 'Network Printer' as well as 'Print Server' with NO PROBLEMS.
However, I have NOT been able to redirect LPT1 Port to a 'LOCAL' PRINTER. I have already set up:
- new HP Laser Printer (tested, no problem printing in Windows)
- the printer is SHARED, shared name is "HPLaser" (tested by viewing Shared Printer Name and Computer Name in DOS)
- bat file as --> Net
use Lpt1 \\DkTop1\HPLaser /persistent:yes
(I checked to ensure the 'Computer
Name' and the 'Shared
Printer Name' are correct. Tested by running bat command, no
error message)
When printing in DOS and viewing "What's Printing" from Printer Icon,
- the DOS print job appears immediately as "spooling",
- then "printing" and "USB001" Port.
So, it appears to be printing from the DOS application, also
note NO ERRORS from DOS Program or Windows but it does NOT print.
The only difference between the 'Local Printer' setup and
the 'Print Server Printer' setup is,
the 'PRINT SERVER'
goes to an "IP Address w/Standard TCP/IP Port"
and the 'LOCAL PRINTER'
goes to "USB001 Virtual Printer for . . .".
IS THERE A PROBLEM in
SETTING UP THE 'LOCAL PRINTER'
with 'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port???
If so, how do I resolve? If not, please note what is the problem(s) and resolution(s). Thanks.

Hi,
you install the new printer, which port you choose to use? What do you mean by saying "'USB001 VIRTUAL PRINTER' Port"
here?
As the printer is configured locally, there is no need to redirect the port to it.

If possible please take a try to delete the printers holding the Lpt1 port, then reconfigure the local printer following the instructions provided above.
Hope this may help

How to Screen Print from Windows 7 in Bootcamp Without "Fn" Key ?

Dear Friends,
For GIS software, I have Windows 7 on my Imac 7, which uses Mac OS X 10.6.8. All of the information which I have found on the Internet about doing a screen print for Windows 7 in Bootcamp on this operating system state that 1. pressing Fn + F11 prints the screen and 2. Option+Fn+F11 prints the active window. Unfortunately, the two Mac keyboards, which I have, do not have a "Fn" key.
Is there anyway to do a screen print without a "fn" key on a person's keyboard? If so, how does a person do it?
Any answers that can be provided for the above questions will be greatly appreciated.

You should ask Windows questions in the Windows forums. But here is an answer: In Windows using these keystrokes, Start > All Programs > Snipping tool.

How to recognize if application is installed using "Install Application on Remote Desktop" option on Windows Server 2008 R2

How to recognize if application is installed using "Install application on remote desktop..." option in Control Panel in Windows Server 2008 R2?
Basically, as administrator, I can't say if the user installed application using "Install application on remote desktop..." in Control Panel or he just installed it by clicking the .msi executable. I can't find anything that makes any difference.
I could not find anything in the registry. I am quite confused.
Thanks,
Aleksandar9

Hi,
Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
Please make sure that you are using category view of control panel-programs to check the application. And in addition to “install application on Remote Desktop server” user can also use command line also.
change user /install
change user /execute
change user /query
“The first time you run the application, it searches the home directory for its .ini files. If the .ini files are not found in the home directory, but are found in the system directory, Terminal Services copies the .ini files to the home directory, ensuring
that each user has a unique copy of the application .ini files. Each user should have a unique copy of the .ini files for an application. This prevents instances where different users might have incompatible application configurations.” (Quoted formthis
article).
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Dharmesh

How do I get my ipad to recognizie my brother printer.? It is AirPrint compatible.

How do I get my ipad to
Recognize my brother printer? It is an air printer compatible ...

Make sure that the printer software is fully updated. Sometimes you have to install a firmware update for the printer before it will work with AirPrint, you can check for updates on the Brother website.
If the firmware is up to date and If you are sure that you installed the software correctly, try rebooting the printer, your router and the iPad. Unplug the printer and the router from power for about 30 seconds. Plug them both back in...router first.
Reboot the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
See if the printer will work after you reset everything.
