  • Mac Lion OS print driver for hp color laser jet 1600 & business inkjet 2200

    I just brought a Macbook Air (13in) with the new OS Lion.  I however have a HP Color Laserjet 1600 and Business Inkjet 2200 that I love, but can't find a printer driver for either.  So, my questions are, does anyone know if:
    1)  there is going to be a mac lion os print driver for hp color laser jet 1600 & Business Inkjet 2200; or
    2)  is there another way to print to them (i.e., the 2200 uses HPA instead of PS and the 1600 uses PCL)?

    Any suggestions re correct driver for windows 7 and HP 4600dn?

    Hi marise,
    I am using Google Translate to assist you.
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
    I understand when trying to fax the display is stuck on the fax message and won't cancel.
    I will be happy to help you.
    Please clarify if I am incorrect.
    I would do a power reset to see if that will resolve the issue. With the printer still turned on, disconnect the power cable from the back of the printer. Then disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet. Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cable back to the wall outlet first, then the back of the printer and power it on again.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
    If the display is showing a fax error you shouldn't need to uninstall and reinstall the printer.
    You stated you weren't able to uninstall the printer and a job was showing in the print queue.
    Since there is a job in the queue you won't be able to uninstall the printer until the job in the queue is deleted.
    Go to start, Devices and printers folder.
    Right-click the name of the product, and then click See what's printing .
    Click Printer, then click Cancel All Documents.
    Click Yes to confirm the action.
    If documents remain in the print queue, restart the computer.
    Try printing again.
    If you require further help please provide the following information so I can help you better.
    What operating system are you using?

    Did that help reset the printer back to a ready state again?
    Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
    Have a wonderful day!

  • HP Color Laser Jet CP2025dn Windows 7 driver does not support the built in duplexing hardware

    Windows Printer Driver Version 5.0.3 does not support the printers built in duplexing hardware.  This is true of the PCL5 driver, the PCL6 driver and the Post Script driver.
    It does support manual duplexing (stand there and feed the printer after the first side prints).

  • Need a driver for a HP Colour laser Jet 1600. This does not appear on the apple list. can anyone suggest where i get a driver from?

    This driver does not appear in the apple search list.
    Any ideas on where i can locate a driver.

    Try the HP site. Apple's drivers come from the printer vendors.
    Don't be all that surprised if there isn't an updated driver available; HP don't support superceded models with updates for every OS update.

    Welcome to the HP Forums  MillaMagia,
    I see by your post that the USB isn't being recognized.
    I can help you with this issue.
    Are you using the same USB cable? (known good USB cable)
    You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 cable and not the latest USB 3.0.
    USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
    Try another USB port on the Laptop, some of the USB ports are more powered then others.
    I have provided a document to see if the printer is partially recognized in the device manager, which is causing the printer not to be recognized again. (the uninstall from the CD should have removed the entry and the printer from the registry)
    Leave the printer turned on and the USB cable connected directly to the computer and the printer's power cord directly into a wall outlet.
    How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
    Here is a document for Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
    Check to see if there are any hardware driver conflicts, you might see a ! mark or a red x beside a device with a conflict or unknown device, look under universal serial bus controllers, look for USB printing support or mass storage device, delete the entry by right clicking and select uninstall, OK.
    Let me know how it was listed. (screen shots welcome)
    If this is a Laptop then check the power management settings.
    Access the device manager. Windows 8-How do I access the Device Manager.
    Select universal serial bus controllers from the list, for each USB root hub, right click and left click on properties, for power management remove the check mark for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". It allows the computer to limit or turn off power for this device.
    Disconnect the USB, run the full uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
    If you need further assistance, let me know.
    Have a nice day!
    Thank You.

  • 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?

  • No printing Windows 8.1 64 bit printing to a Laser Jet 3550 USB

    I purchased a new HP Envy 700 computer with Windows 8.1 i5 (64-bit).  I checked before purchase and made sure drivers were listed at HP.  I have 2 new HP lap tops that do not print but never tried to make them work.  
    Now my HP Color Laser Jet 3550 isn't recognized or print and will not load any drivers.  When I try troubleshooting, it says, no problem found.  The icon is not in the printer control panel.  I Pluged in to USB 2. and 3. ports.  HP technical help was no help.  (My Printer is Old)  No one at HP seems to know about this problem.  Any one have a solution?  Thanks!

    Hi,
    The printing is not supported on Windows 8, however a workaround available by using the drivers for Vista.
    Follow these steps to download and install the software for Windows Vista, below I attached any link as required to complete the document:

  • FAX through HP laser jet 3050 which is connected on a Windows Network. I m also connected to this Network and i print through HP LJ 3050. How can i sent fax through HP LJ 3050?

    HOW can i sent FAX through HP laser jet 3050 which is connected on a Windows Network.
    I m also connected to this Network and i print through HP LJ 3050. How can i sent fax through HP LJ 3050?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Apparently there is no HP software support for the HP 3050 fax or scan functions with OS X 'Lion' 10.7:

    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?&objectID=c0292511 4
    Alternatives?
    1) Run a Windows client on the Mac using Boot Camp or one of the available virtualization programs like Parallels, VMware Fusion, and others so you can run the latest Windows print/fax/scan driver.
    2) If your Mac hardware supports an older OS X version, downgrade to one (Snow Leopard?) that still had support for print, fax and scan.
    3) Buy a newer printer. A 2007 model is 5+ years old, and should now be fully depreciated in a business.

  • Laser Jet 1100 Running on XP machine Need driver for windows 7

    I have a Laser Jet 1100 running on a XP machine. Have other XP machines on the wireless network they can print to it, and all is fine. Purchased a new laptop for my wife running windows 7 and the printer will not load onto her machine. I can load the printer local to her machine, it accepts the driver that was loaded onto the machine but can't get it to install on the network.
    Thank you,
    Chris

    I have five computers on my home network. My desk top 1 is directly connected to my ip provider router.
    This unit is a 32 bit and the the printer is shared through it. I have four other laptops in the house and all my 32 bit computers work fine with the printer.  The two unit I have that are 64 bit base will not work with the printer.  I have not found out for sure yet but i think the problem may be that the 32 bit unit that is sharing the printer is not able to handle the 64 bit code between the printer your new laptop. 
    My vista unit  will return with an error that states the drivers are not compatible.  64 bit drivers won't install because the base computer is 32 bit.  I could be wrong but i think the only way to get it to work with both 32 and 64 bit system drivers is to upgrade the computer that shares the printer to a 64 bit operating system or replace the printer with a network printer that connects directly to the router at least. 
    A 64 bit system can handle 32 bit instructions but a 32 bit system can't handle 64 bit instructions. I not a pro and could be wrong and have over thought the problem.
