HP Deskjet 1010 printer to Chrome book

Hi, I have a Dell Chrome book and just bought a HP Deskjet 1010 printer. I tried all of yesterday to print of documents to no avail. I literally spent the day Googling but have come across different answers. I also bought the USB but some some suggestions say dont use it others do!!. Also some posts say that the printer is not compatible with Chromebooks. Have also registered with Google Cloud printers. I desperately need to print documents off today for interview tomorrow. I have tried various instructions but still not workng PLEASE HELP!! THanks

Hey there @Hannah1000!
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
I can see that you have the Deskjet 1010 that you are trying to work with your Chrome book.  Unfortunately the devices are not compatible.  In order to use an HP printer on the Chrome book it will need to be be WiFi connected and support the HP Eprint feature.
The Deskjet 1010 is not Eprint compatible and in order to setup the WiFi in the printer it needs to be plugged into a computer running Windows or Mac and you have to use the CD to configure the WiFi through a USB cable.  The Chrome book only has Google Chrome installed and that is all.  Everything is done through the Google Cloud servers and your unable to install CD's on it. 
There is another way to add the Printer to a Chrome book and that's called "add a classic printer".  Using this method will require you to have another computer that the printer is connected to WiFi or USB.  In order for the Chrome book to see the printer this way the other computer will need to be on at all times to share the printer.
I was able to locate a document regarding Connect your classic printers with Google Cloud Print.  If you have a Windows or Mac computer you may be able to set the printer up on the Chrome book this way.  If your unable to set the printer up this way I would suggest checking into printers that are Eprint compatible.
Thanks again for posting on the HP Forums and enjoy your day!

  • Hp Deskjet 1010 Printer name change

    I tired to change the name of my printer. This is the message I keep getting, "Printer properties cannot be displayed. Double check the printer name and make sure that the printer is connected to the network". Someone please help. I think I messed something up.

    Welcome to the forums Tonya!
    I noticed your post about how you tried to rename the printer.
    Which operating system are you running and have you tried Uninstalling the Printer Software and reinstalling it? That should do the trick for you!
    If you are running Windows, you can also run the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
    Please let me know and I will certainly look into this some more for you!
    Have a great day

  • HP Deskjet 1010 on Windows XP - won't print

    I had an HP Inkjet 1000 that worked fine for years, and then decided not to grab the paper.  Since I had just purchased 6 new cartridges, I wanted to replace that printer with one that would also use the type 61 cartridges, and purchased a DeskJet 1010 printer.  The printer does not print.  There are no error messages.  If I am watching the printer spool when I OK the print, I see the document spooling, getting sent to the printer, and then deleted from the spool.  I cannot get the test page to print.  All of the diagonstics seem OK (green checks everywhere).
    I have installed the new drivers (several times).  The only way I have been able to get any output from the printer is to ask for an alignment page, which I suspect is being driven directly to the USB without going through the print spooler. 
    The printer works fine on another of my computers, so suspect the drivers, the spooler, or the port connection, but not the printer itself.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi PeterGuthrie,
    I am sorry to hear that you cannot get the Deskjet 1010 to print on your Windows XP computer. I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
    I recommend using this document for USB Printer Installation Troubleshooting. After doing the disk clean up, I recommend doing a re-register of the windows installer.
    To Re-register Windows Installer
    Click Start, click Run , type MSIEXEC /UNREGISTER , and then click OK .
    NOTE:Even if you do this correctly, it might look like nothing happens, but it does.
    Click Start, and then click Run .
    In the Run window, type MSIEXEC /REGSERVER , and then click OK .
    Then follow the rest of the steps in order. Be sure to restart after installing before trying to print.
    I hope this information helps, please let me know how it goes.
    Thank you,

  • Reversing Print Order on Deskjet 1010

    I am using my Deskjet 1010 to print checks from my Quickbooks Accounting program. It automatically prints them in reverse order causing numbering problems for me in my check register. I have searched the HP website, but cannot find any information for my printer.

    Hello mab1,   Welcome to the HP Forums.  I see that you are attempting to change the Page Order on the computer. If you click on the Start button on the computer and go to Devices and Printers, right mouse click on the DeskJet 1010 printer icon and then left mouse click on Printing Preferences.  From here on the Layout tab you will see the option to change the Page order.  This is the only place that it can be done on the computer.  If you are still having issues, you may need to check the settings in Quickbooks Accounting Program.   Thanks for your time.

  • Hp Deskjet 1010 series printer -- printer set up

    I purchased a deskjet 1010 printer and am trying to set it up to my Mac OS X 10.8.5 laptop. I got the software installed no problem but when it wants to set up the printer it says I need to connect my printer with a USB cable or can do it wirelessly by pressing the wireless button on my printer and then following the rest of the steps. My printer only came with the cords to plug it into a power source, it did not come with a USB cable and there is no wireless button anywhere on the printer...how am I to set up my printer??

  • HP Desk Jet 1010 Printer will not recognize 61 HP Ink Cartridges

    Error Message reads:
    Ink Cartridge Problem
    At least one of the cartrideges has a problem. Click help for more information. (There is no help button.)
    If ink cartridges have been installed, check that the plastic tape covering the ink nozzeles has been removed. (They're brand new cartridges and yes the tape was removed.)
    To order a genuine HP replacement cartridge online, click buy now. (I don't want to buy a new cartridge. I just did.)
    This was a combo-pack with black and tri-color from Walmart. It's exactly the same one that was purchased before and it worked fine.
    Is one of them just a defective cartridge? Is there a way to check this? If they're not defective how do I make my computer recognize that I have cartridges installed?

    The troubleshooting steps in the document here may help resolve the cartridge error with your Deskjet 1010 printer.  See the section under "power light is blinking rapidly".  It is possible that reinstalling the cartridge or cleaning the cartridge contacts will resolve the issue.  If the steps there do not resolve the issue is is possible you have a defective cartridge.  If you still have the old cartridge you replaced I would suggest installing it in the printer just to verify the issue is with the cartridge and not the printer.  HP cartridges have a two year warranty  as described in the document here.  The cartridge is separate from the printer warranty.  You could call HP for a replacement (1-800-HPINVENt if you are in the US or Canada, elsewhere see the document here) or return the cartridges to Walmart for a replacement.

  • Deskjet 1010 over saturated colors

    This is my first HP printer. I have had it only a few days and am very disappointed with prints from my photographs.
    The prints have over saturated colors and are too warm, resulting in a dark, muddy appearance.
    For mant years, I have used Canon printers that have allowed me to adjust color balance and density.
    I was surprised to that these facilities are not available with HP software.
    Is there any way I can get the print quality that I want?

  • Hp desktop1000 will not print from samsung google chrome book

    I just purchased a Samsung Google Chrome book and cannot get it to print to my HP1000 printer. Any ideas?  I cannot connect it directly to my laptop. It must be done wirelessly. HELP

    Hi there, in order to print from your Chromebook to your printer you will need to register it on the Google Cloud Print service. This is because Chromebooks are not designed to have software installed on them (in the way you would install a software driver for a printer on a Windows or Mac machine). Instead they are designed to run applications from the Cloud. The model of printer you have is considered a "Classic" printer by the Google CLoud Print service as it does not have its own internet connection. Here's a link from Google on how to connect your classic printer with Google Cloud Print
    Hope this information helps but post back if you're having trouble.

  • Using the officejet4500 with the chrome book

    i have the officejet 4500 wireless printer and need to figureout how to get it to work with the chrome books? i got as far as emailaddress for the cloud printing and have no clue how to make an email address for the printer. is there an app for the chrome book i can use to just print directly to the officejet 4500 printer?

    Hi,
    Printing directly from Chrome OS can only be done with printers who support the HP ePrint service, which is not supported by the HP Officejet 4500 printer.
    For the specific model you will need to use another computer to set the printer as a Classic Printer (HP classic printers (non e-Print enabled):

    For direct network printing from Chrome OS you will need an ePrint enabled printer, you may find a list of ePrint enabled printers in the following link:
