HP C4180 all-in-one, Windows Vista 64-bit, purple in photo prints out looking like blue

Driving me crazy.  School colors are purple and white.  Anytime I print a photo of our football team, the purple turns out blue.  HELP!!

I have the same freaking problem and I have this problem on two of the 3 computers I have it installed on. One of the computers is a 64 bit windows 7 Ultimate and the other is 32 bit Windows 7 Ultimate. I have a feeling that it is caused by uninstalling and reinstalling to many times or using a recovery software program, and as I know HP doesn't have a uninstall utility for the C309a series printer that uninstall everything, including the registry keys. And I'll bet that is where the problem lies. If anyone know a fix for this problem PLEASE LET US KNOW!

  • Psc 2110 all-in-one​, Windows Vista 32-bit,

    psc 2110 all-in-one, Windows Vista 32-bit, Tried to scan and now printer will not scan or print. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and it still doesn't work. HP diagnostic said I needed a new driver and HP by passes that request.
    Scanner hasn't worked very well since I put the printer on Vista.  How do I get a download for a new driver from HP?

    Hello 2_old ,
    Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome Back" to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are receiving an error message about the left ink cartridge on the printer.
    It is possible that the ink cartridge is low or even empty. 
    First off, please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    If the error is still on the printer after the unit has been connected to a wall outlet, I suggest you try another cartridge.
    If the troubleshooting does not help resolve your issue, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
    I hope you have a great day and thank you for your time.

  • Drivers for a windows vista 32 bit and a Photo smart p1000 printer

    Hi I have just been given a HP photosmart p1000 and i can not install a driver as my operating system is a Windows Vista 32 bit. Is there a work around????

    HI,
    The work around that appears to work is to choose the Deskjet 990 driver from the list of printers supplied in the Windows Vista operating system.
    Install the driver
    Install the compatible print driver on the computer.
    Make sure that the USB cable is not connected to the HP product.
    From the Windows taskbar, click the Windows icon (), type control printers in the Start Search box, and then press Enter . The Printers window appears.
    Click Add a printer and then click Add a local printer .
    Click the Use an existing port check box.
    In the Use an existing port drop-down list, select LPT1: (Printer Port) and then click Next .
    Under Manufacturer on the Install the printer driver dialog box, select HP .
    Under Printers , select the Deskjet 990 and then click Next .
    In the Printer name text box, type the HP product name and then click Next . The print driver starts to install.
    NOTE:The name of the alternate print driver appears as the default name. The name can be changed to the name of the HP product, if desired.
    9.      After a message appears on the computer that the product was added successfully, connect the USB cable to the product and to the computer.
    10.  On the Found New Hardware screen, click Cancel .
    NOTE:If multiple pop-up windows appear, click Cancel on each window.

     Unable to print messagtes from the internet. I have tried the HP PRINT AND SCAN DOCTOR AND HAVE UNINSTALLED AND REINTALLED THE PRINT DRIVER.

    Hi,
    Are you able to print from other applications like Paint, Word etc.? Did you try printing from different browsers?

  • Photosmart 7280 All-in-One makes a weird squeeky noise when photo printing. Why?

    Since purchase it has made this squeeky noise when printing a picture using the photo tray (4 x 6 w/tab).  When the photo paper (or photo tray?) is going through to begin the print job.  Once the photo paper gets to that point of printing the photo, I no longer hear that squeeky sound.
    I've looked, searched and cleaned every where I dare to but it still makes that sound.  I've had this printer for two plus years and the photo's turn out just fine as well as any other type print/copy functions I use.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

  • Tasklist.exe does not list all Modules in Windows 7 64-bit

    tasklist.exe does not list all Modules in Windows 7 64-bit.
    If I want to look at the DLLs loaded by Excel, I would type:
      tasklist /M /fi "imagename eq excel.exe"
    When I run this in XP or 32-bit Win7, it works fine, showing all the dlls loaded by excel.  However, in 64-bit windows, it does NOT show all dlls - only a limited subset.  If I use Process Explorer, I can still see all the DLLs loaded by excel,
    but that is useless for writing automated scripts.
    To check this out, try looking for kernel32.dll - it is always loaded by Excel, but tasklist does not display it in 64-bit Win7:
       tasklist /M kernel32.dll /fi "imagename eq excel.exe"
    So, since tasklist is broken, is there a good (command-line) way of looking at what dlls are loaded by a process?

  • Windows Vista 64 bit and HP 2840 Color LaserJet All-In-One - Workaround

    Although HP has not provided a workable solution for a use of a HP 2840 Color LaserJet All-In-One with Windows Vista 64 bit, I did manage to get it to work. The solution is a bit convoluted and may not work for all users but here’s how I did it. I'm running Vista Ultimate 64 bit. Not sure how other Vista versions may behave.
    I tried many different solutions that did not work. Attempting to install many different versions of the HP 2840 software in different compatibility modes ended up rendering my other HP 4385 All-In-One inoperative.  I deleted every piece of HP software and hardware from my system and reinstalling the HP 4385 software. Still couldn’t get my 4385 working again. I finally ended up restoring my system to restore point prior to attempting to install the HP 2840. All this to say that if you’ve made several attempts to get it working you may need to back up and punt with a restore.
    Make sure your HP 2840 is NOT connected.
    Press the “Scan” button on the 2840 (The control panel on the 2840 should say ‘Waiting on PC”).
    Plug the HP 2840 in via a USB cable. A “New hardware” message should pop up on the PC.
     Minimize this window. DO NOT MAKE ANY ATTEMPT TO INSTALL DRIVERS. Just ignore this message for the moment.
    In Windows, go to CONTROL PANEL/SCANNERS AND CAMERAS. Hopefully you’ll see a “HP 2840 LaserJet Scanner”. If not, the rest will probably not work.
    Now hit the "Windows Start" button. Select "Programs" or "All Programs" (depending on your setup configuration). Open "Windows Fax Scan". It should connect to the 2840 Scanner. Experiment with the scanner and select flatbed and feeder input  to make sure it functions properly. Once satisfied that the scanner is working properly you can configure the printer.
    On the “New Hardware Detected” window that you minimized in step 4, select “Do Not Ask Me Again For This Hardware”.
    Connect the 2840 to your network via a CAT cable.
    On your PC press the "Windows Start" button and select “Settings and Printers”.
    Select “Add a Printer”.
    Select “Add a Network Printer”.
    Windows will scan your network searching for printers. It should find your 2840.
    Select “Next” (It is not necessary to let the search complete once your 2840 has been identified).
    From the dropdown list, select ‘HP” and “HP Universal Printing PCL 6". It was the last one in the list for me.
    Print a test page
    You should now have a HP 2840 network printer and a local 2840 scanner.
    O course the drawback is that you can only scan to the PC where the 2840 scanner is attached via the USB cable. You can print from any PC on your network by following steps 9 through 15 on each network PC. 
    Another little tidbit I ran into; selecting any other driver besides the “HP Universal Printing PCL 6" driver cause my Microsoft Office 2007 to crash any time I selected the "Save As" option. I found some links on the Internet that indicate this is a known problem. It may not affect you but you might want to play it safe.
    Hope this helps someone.

    Uninstall the HP software using the uninistaller in the HP folder.
    Restart your PC.
    Get the latest software for your printer from the "Support & Drivers" link at the top of this page.

  • Just downloaded Firefox 4 on Windows Vista 32-bit and its not working at all.

    So I just downloaded Firefox 4 on Windows Vista 32-bit, and it's not working at all. I open up Firefox and there is not tab bar, and all the command buttons are repeated 3 times, and are on 3 different bars. This only happens with Firefox 4 and not Firefox 3.6.10. Also, when I go the menu bar and I try to click soething, nothing happens. I'm not sure why this is going on. Help anyone? Here is a link to a screenshot of my browser.
    http://img683.imageshack.us/i/firefox4y.jpg/

    I have this too, but doesn't even startup now? I downgraded to the previous version and all is OK. I also have a 64 bit version of Vista and it seems to work "a-OK" on that machine.
    Seems to me to be 32-bit issue.
    Editing this post:
    I just seen a possible answer...Do you have roboform installed (in the taskbar also)? If so, try disabling it or removing it and try to start again. I said above that I have 2 units and on the one (32-bit) I have Roboform installed and it crashes, but on the other one I don't...so go figure.
    According to the report I read, if you upgrade Roboform it should be OK, although I have not tested as of yet...I am still at work...
    Hope that helps...

  • HP Photosmart C4180 All In One ... won't scan at all

    According to HP, I have all the latest HP Photosmart C4180 "All In One" Drivers Installed.
    According to PackardBell (my pc) it is all installed to Windows 7 with a 32 Bit Operating System.
    The problem I get is that I start the P/C ... Then I opened up the HP  "Solution Centre" on the desktop ...
    It tells me  "Your HP Photosmart C4100 series is ready"
    In the middle of the screen it says  "Start An Activity" then there is a button that says
    "Scan Document" ... I press on this button and it seems to do nothing!!! ...
    Please Help?? ... gooseman57

    Hi there @gooseman57 !
    Thanks for contacting the HP Forums!
    From what I can see from your post, sound like the scanning software for the HP Photosmart C4180 is not responding.  I should be able to provide you with a resolution for your issue.
    A good place to start with an issue such as this, is to restart the computer and the printer.  I would suggest trying a photo copy on the printer to ensure the printer hardware is OK!
    If you continue to experience this problem I would then suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the HP drivers.
    I have provided a link with instructions on uninstalling the printer software and another link to the HP Photosmart C4100 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver
    There are also other ways of scanning we can explore. For example, you can scan using the program Microsoft Paint.  All you need to do is:
    1.Open PAINT
    2.Go to "FILE" dropdown
    3.Click: From scanner or camera
    3.Choose your printer
    4.Choose what type of scan you would like
    5.Click SCAN
    6.Click SAVE
    Here is a link to a YouTube video for scanning using Microsoft Paint: Scan with your All-in-One Using Windows Paint (Windows 7)
    Let me know if this was useful information and please post back with the results of your troubleshooting.

  • HP C4180 All-In-One printer

    I have a simple network. One XP computer with HP C4180 All-In-One printer. One Mac Powerbook X 10.4. The two computers communicate via a wireless network.
    Everything is setup fine. The Powerbook can see the XP printer via the Mac Printer Utility, but the Printer Description is not included in the pull-down list of computers.
    I installed the HP C4180 Printer driver on the Mac, but the Printer Description is still not included in the pull-down list.
    In the pull-down list, I can choose "Other...", and I am re-directed to a pop-up dialog to search for a file. I'm assuming that I am searching for a PPD file?
    Did the Printer Driver install a PPD file somewhere on the MAC? Where is it? Will the PPD file work as a driver for a networked printer (or just a USB printer connected to the mac?)?
    Thank you.

    Hello Steve,
    The drivers for the HP have been designed for direct USB connection and will automatically add the printer when it is connected. The drivers haven't been designed for this type of network connection, hence they don't appear under the HP list, nor will you be able to browse for a PPD.
    What you need to do is use one of the included GIMP (Gutenprint) drivers to print via your network. The trick is finding which one will be compatible with the C4180. This could be just a case of trying several different ones, unless someone out there is aware of which driver would work best.

    nicahermosa42,
    There are a few ways to print from your Android phone to your HP printer.
    Send an email from your phone to your printer's ePrint address (ex. [email protected]).
    Download the HP ePrint Home and Biz app from the Android Market to print photos and documents to your HP printer over your wireless network or through ePrint.
    If you need assistance with either method of printing, please post again.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
