HP 1100A Laser Jet printer and Vista

Has anyone had success using a HP1100A laser jet with the Vista operating system? I had it working for a short period, but then it just stoped printing. I used an adaptor cable to match the printer to a USB port. I then installed a parallel port card to the computer. Still no luck printing. I can hook the 1100A to a computer with XP and it works fine. Vista does not recogonize the 1100A. I had a neighbor who is a computer programer look at it and he says the computer is not communicating with the printer. He tried using several different drivers from the HP website, plus tried using the disk that came with the printer, all without success.
This question was solved.

Here's the page I was looking for:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&docname=c00867904
I configured my 1100 as a 1000. If you follow the directions this should take care of it. I'm not sure if I lost any of the functionality, but I do know I'm now using my Business Inkjet 1100 as intended with Vista even though HP says this model isn't supported in Vista 64bit. I'm a much happier camper now. I'm not sure if this was the printer you were talking about or not. Good luck.

HP Laser Jet 1320n and mac os 10.7.4

When trying to add the 1320n Laser Jet printer to my computer it says "The selected printer software is available from Apple - Click to download and add this printer." When I do this a Set Up window appears then I receive the message: "The software for this printer is currently unavailable. Please contact the printer's manufacturer for the latest software." I have used this printer in the past with this computer. The IP address was recently changed - so I had to add the printer again and am now receiving this message. Thanks!

Hi,
You may temporarly connect the printer to your Mac using USB, then click the Apple icon and install the latest HP Update, it should bypass this kind of error..
Alternatively you may download and install the package below:

Once completing the isntallation fo to System Preferences > Print & Scan. click the plus sign and the printer should be added successfully.

Laser Jet Printer P1007

HI.
I have installed Laser Jet Printer P1007, since about a month it is not accepting paper for printer. First it accepts but subsequently stops and retry message comes though the paper is always full. Please provide solution

Welcome to the HP Forums paperunloading,
I read your post, which indicates that the printer won't pull the paper in.
I can help you with this.
Make sure the paper tray isn't over filled.
I have provided a document to go through the steps to see if that will resolve the issue.

HP2420 Laser Jet printer only printing black pages

I have an HP2420 laser jet printer that is only printing black pages. I have tried 3 different toner cartridges so the cartridge is not the issue. I saw that there are maintenance kits. Could these help solve my problem and if so, how do I use them?
Many thanks

Okay, now where was the paper jam located? Was there any paper torn off when you cleared the jam? As I stated before, almost sounds like a voltage problem, might be one of the contacts might be having an issue. Also, since the machine is new, I would suggest contacting HP, the machine should still be under warranty, if it is in fact new, and see if they can either provide service for it or just replace it. That is of course if you do not get it resolved.

My HP 3015 laser jet printer is 220V. How can I run it on household 110V ?

I got a brand new HP P3015 laser jet printer. Because they are a fast printer, they pull a lot of power to keep the fusers happy. In fact, the printer I got is a 220V model and it is not happy on just 110V household current. How can I convert it to 110V? Or, how can I feed it 220V worth of power at home?

Hello @ReggieWagstaff ,
I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .
I hope this helps!

Any idea why I can't print using Photoshop Elements 13 and an HP Color Laser Jet printer?

Windows 7 with Photoshop Elements 13 - Recently purchased Elements 13 and haven't been able to print! I have an HP Color Laser Jet CMI1312nfi MFP and printed fine last year with a trial version of Elements 12. I keep getting errors saying "the saved print information is an incompatible version. It has been set to default values" as well as "default printer could not be opened." I downloaded an update to the driver for the printer today but still no luck. Any other ideas?

I ended up reinstalling the drivers for the Canon from the original CD and that took care of it. Normally I can just copy the PPDs for our particular printers to the PPD folder in the Library/Printers/PPDs folder and it works fine, but for some reason this machine decided it needed everything reinstalled. It's working now.

Problems printing with HP laser jet 5M and Snow Leopard

Hello,
Since In installed Snow Leopard on my mac I can no longer print with my HP laser jet 5M.
I know this is because Appletalk is no longer supported, and that I should use the laser jet as IP printer. However, I couldn't figure out how to assign an IP address to the printer. It seems I can't do this by the config menus of the printer. I read somwhere it is possible to do this by terminal (telnet) but I am not familiar with unix.
Can anybody help me to solve this problem?
many thanks
Marcello

This should get you started

Scanning with an HP 3390 all-in one laser jet printer using Windows 7 pro (64 bit)

I have recently acquired a Dell Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) OS computer and was wanting to use my HP all-in-one laser jet 3390 printer and scanner. The printer software which came with my HP 3390 will work with my Wind 7 Pro OS computer, however my HP 3390 scanner function will not work using this HP driver software, with my Win 7 Pro OS. I am trying to locate the appropriate HP scanner and/or different printer drivers that will support both the printer AND scanner functions of my HP 3390 printer/scanner, while using my Windows 7 Pro OS computer. Within the HP website, I have not been able to find this type of driver software or support, as least listed as such? I was wondering, if there are maybe no dedicated or described scanner drivers for my situation, is there even another set of drivers which might be intended for other Window 7 Pro OS based computers and other HP printer/scanners, which would work for my situation as well? Does anyone have a solution to resolve this issue via HP driver software or by another method...maybe even 3rd party? Ther has to be a solution?

I can not install my wireless P2015 dn Laser Jet Printer with the MS 7 software.

For three years the P2015 worked "wireless"on my Lenovo T60p with microsoft XP. It ran through my wireless router and printed fine.
I just updates the software to MS 7 (32 bits, 2007) and the printer will not run off the router. I hooked the printer up directly by cord, downloaded the printer drivers off the MS 7 software and it worked fine while attached. The router works fine with MS 7 for the internet and the email on my computer and the two other computers (still MS XP) on the router.
I tried installing the 2015nd Laser Jet using the CD driver it came with originally and I come to a screen "searching for available printers" and there is nothing in the box below to choose from (blank screen). It goes though a "searching for available printers" routine and finally the message come up "No printers were found". This same thing occurs when I try downloading from the HP Web site drivers. I get the same screens and the same results.
What do I need to do? (I am a beginning level of computer knowledge)

Hi Edronenburg,
Even though the software installer can not find your printer automatically, you can still install the printer if you know the IP address.
If you press and hold the "Go" button on the control panel for several seconds (until the lights begin flashing) the config page will print. On this page you can find the IP address of the printer that has been assigned by the router. During the software install, instead of having the installer automatically search for the printer, choose to manually enter the IP address. This should allow the software install to complete successfully.

I understand that you are having a problem with installing a Windows XP 32-bit printer driver. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue. If you have an older version of this print driver or other older LaserJet print drivers installed, then this could be causing an issue.
Use the HP Officejet Pro Software and Driver Removal Utility and do a level 3 uninstall to remove all the printer software and drivers.
Here is a document for Installing the Printer Software in Windows XP for a USB Cable Connection that explains the steps to installing the software and drivers.
Here is the link for the HP LaserJet 1020 and 1022 Printer series Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver download page.
I hope this information helps, please let me know how it goes.

HP laser jet printing has black boxes witers

I just bought a new HP Laser Jet Pro MFP M127fn printer. I have an old version of PrintMaster that I have used for years to print my business cards. When I try to use this program with the new printer, the words are all in white surrounded by a black box. A sort of negative print effect. If I can't solve this problem I'll have to return the printer since I use this software quite often. I'm hoping for a simple fix.
Thanks,
Norm

>> ... have to return the printer since I use this software quite often ...
But you might find that you have exactly the same problem with any replacement printer!
I'm not familiar with PrintMaster, so I don't know how integrated it is with modern (Windows?) printer drivers, or (especially with "an old version") if it doesn't use such drivers at all, but generates the print job directly.
If it does use modern drivers (i.e. a standard Print dialogue is exposed), then if you capture a sample (sanitised data) job (select the 'print to file' option in the Print dialogue), then analysis of the resultant .prn file might (but may not) yield some clues as to what is going on.
If the print job Page Description Language is PCL rather than PostScript, you can do the analysis using the PRN File Analyse tool in the PCL Paraphernalia application, available via http://www.pclparaphernalia.eu
