Hp laserjet 1005 series printer drivers

hp laserjet 1005 series printer drivers

This worked for me in windows 7 professional 32bit SP1. Fresh install. I like my printer, I have used it for many years under both linux and windows and I had no intention of throwing it away. I am pleased I have found a way to make it work, I would have surely never bought HP again otherwise.
How to make a HP LaserJet 1005 series work in windows 7 32bit
1. download the printer driver HP LaserJet 1005 Host Based Driver v 5.51.2103.0 released 6 Oct 2003
Right now it can be found here: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?cc=us&prodNameId=214539&prodSerie...
It is named lj1005hostbased-en.exe - md5sum 428274e8060e830aeaf1acf06f10a398
2. Extract the printer driver to a folder. (It is a winzip self-extract executable)
3. Go to the printers page and "Add a new printer". It will ask you to select a port, but not an USB because USB devices are automatically detected. Scroll down and select "Virtual USB port" (not sure about the naming but you'll find it)
4. In the installation of this virtual-usb connected printer you can say "I have the driver". Click on the button, point the printer dialog to the driver folder and select the .INF file in the directory (there are two, I used the first one). You will successfully install a second printer named "HP Laserjet 1005 series"
5. Now right click the real printer, which has the same name but has the warning triangle because it needs "troubleshooting" - it has no associated driver. Select Troubleshoot. It will look for drivers. Skip looking online it is just a waste of time. NOW IT WILL FIND THE DRIVER YOU INSTALLED FOR THE VIRTUAL PRINTER. CLick OK.
6. The danger triangle disappears, the virtual-usb printer with the same name disappears and you are lef with a printer named HP Laserjet 1005 series which... works!
Cheers.

I am not a HP employee.

I'm trying to install an HP LaserJet 1000 series printer so all systems on my network can access it.

Topography: All systems are Windows XP. Wireless network. Printer is physically attached to one of the XP systems, and printing from that system works as expected. Trying to add this printer via the "Add Printer" fails.
In "Add Printer", selecting "A Network Printer, or a printer attached to another computer"; press "Next"
On "Next" panel, selected "Browse for a printer", press "next"
On "Next panel", this printer I am looking for "\\host\printername" appears (along with other printers attached to other hosts"; press "Next"
On "Next panel", get popup "You are about to connect to a printer on host, which will automatically installa print driver on your machine. Printer drivers may contain viruses or scripts that can be harmful to your computer. It is important to be certain that the computer sharing this printer is trustworthy. Would you like to continue?"
Select "yes". Get a popup "The server for the "hp Laser Jet 1000" printer does not have the correct printer driver installed. If you want to search for the proper driver, click OK. Otherwise, click Cancel and contact your network administrator (that's me) or original equipment manufacturer for the correct printer driver."
Select "OK". Get a popup box titled "File needed: printer driver INF for hp LaserJet 1000" Box has input for typing the path where the file is located."
And ... I'm stuck. :-( I have no idea what it's looking for, or where it should be found.
The printer itself was a hand-me-down, so it's not like there's any real $$ involved in this; and I could always instll the printer directly on the system that will be using it most, but I'd really like to have it on my network. Did not receive any original CDs or publications. The installation file that I used, which I presume installed the driver was down loaded from this site, filename "lj1000hostbased-en-exe"
Any good advice on how to get this printer (it's a VERY nice printer, by the way ... prints wonderfully from the host it's actually attached to) onto my network for remote printing?
Thanks, in advance!
Update w/ additional possibly useful information: The HP Print and Scan Doctor does NOT see this printer at all. however the add printer dialog does. I don't know if that's useful or not, but it is what it is.
Thanks in advance again!
Phil

Hi,
How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

HP 4200 series Printer Drivers

I am having a problem getting a new HP Deskjet F4280 to print. When I send a document to print, all the normal functions happen from selecting the number of copies , etc, and the print progress bar shows up and fills in but it never prints. The jobs completed shows whatever I send as completed with the time and date. I can get the Deskjet to Scan and Copy from the computer controls. I tried to find updated drivers at Apple.com for this printer but they are only there for OSX 10.5. Leopard.
I have done the all steps HP online assistance has suggested but, do not have a solution yet. I have loaded the latest OSX drivers from the HP site and installed them. If I use the Printer Setup Utility to try to install it as a HP printer I am unable to find drivers, I presume because the printer is not listed (old listing of printers)
I have now used the generic printer option in the Printer Setup Utility and have found I have a driver version 10.4 and PPD file version 1.0 listed.
I go to "about this Mac" and look at the printer option, I now have installed:
Deskjet F4200 series:
Status: Idle
Print Server: Local
Driver Version: 10.4
Default: Yes
URI: usb://HP/Deskjet F4200 series?serial=CN8882D3VP05BR
PPD: Generic PostScript Printer
PPD File Version: 1.0
PostScript Version: (2000.0) 1
Can anyone tell me if this is the correct driver version I should have? Any idea what I need to do to get the printer to print?
Thanks
Ron

OK, so I "think" you're installing driver version 9.7.1? - Yes
In Print & Fax/Printer Setup, are you clicking on Default - which gives the default browser? - That's the main problem I think anyway. I cannot get the Print Browser selection window within the Printer Setup Utility to accept this printer so I can make it the default printer. If I go to the HP selection list, the Series 4200 or the drivers are not listed so I can't select the default printer.
If I try the "Other" selection I am taken to my Documents folder and can get to all the other folders but I cannot find the printer and drivers in any subfolder.
And the printer is connected by USB? Yes, I know that is working correctly as the install 9.7.1 program identifies the printer and gives the serial number when plugged in and turned an as directed
Again - "generic" won't be useful in any way. I have found that to be very true.
I don't understand what "the utility is not up to date" means here.
What I mean is that when I select to "add a printer" I'm taken to the "Print Browsed " window where I hi-light the 4200 Series printer and make that selection. The Print Browser window tels me I have selected that printer and that is located at G4 (??? See below). I am then asked to select the printer or driver from the list provided in the drop down listings. I go to HP and the Series 4200 printer is not listed.
Have you repaired permissions? (Disk Utility in Utilities) - Yes, every time I reinstall the 9.7.1 program.
COULD the problem be that the printer is located at G4 instead of the Hard Drive? Just to make sure can you tell me how can I change the location to the Hard Drive ?
Thanks
Ron

HP Laserjet 3600 Series Printer with a blank or incorrect colour column down left side of page

Have a HP3600 Series Laserjet that has started to show a definite column (about 1/2" wide) of incorrect colour down the lefthand side of the page. Narrowed it down to the Magenta Cartridge after printing a diagnostics page. Have replaced the Magenta Cartridge after doing calibrations and diagnostics and have also now replaced the Fuser Kit. Still the same - has anyone any suggestions?

Printer driver for an HP LaserJet 1000 series for use with Windows 7

The CD ROM HP LaserJet 1000 series printer driver is not recognized by my new Windows 7 PC. So the printer does not work. I've looked on the HP web site for compatible drives and get the hint that a Vista driver would work. Can someone please confirm if this possible and how this is accomplished? Thanks.

Where did you find a hint that Vista drivers would work? This page says:
Your LaserJet model is not supported in Windows 7.
For more information regarding upgrade programs and new product information, please visit the HP Trade-In/Trade Up website at www.hp.com/united-states/tradein/home_flash.html or directly from HP at www.hp.com .
Additionally, this page says the Laserjet 1000 is not supported in Vista.
If you are using the 32 bit version of Windows 7 it may be possible to download the XP drivers here and install them.

HP LaserJet 1200 Series- Spaces appearing in words of printed document

I have an HP LaserJet 1200 series printer. All of a sudden blank spaces began appearing in the footnotes of a document. For example, "supra" printed as "s upra" numerous times in a row, "in" printed as "i n", and "whether" printed as "whether r". The spaces do not appear on the computer screen. I just attached another printer and the spaces disappeared. Is there a way to fix my HP LaserJet 1200 series printer? Thanks for any help!

HP LaserJet 1005 driver for Windows 8.1 x64

Hello,
I'm unable to install the HP LaserJet 1005 series driver on my Windows 8.1 x64. Here is what I've done so far:
- downloaded ljP1000_P1500-HB-pnp-win64-en.exe
- started the installer program
- it successfully extracted installation data into C:\Program Files\HP\HP LaserJet P1000_P1500 Series
- (the printer's USB cable is not yet connected)
- A pop up window appears: "Waiting for user to connect the device."
- I connect the USB cable to the computer. The printer is turned on. (The USB cable is OK - verified on a different PC)
- However, the installer is unable to detect the connected printer. The following messages are reapeatedly written into the installer's log file:
[ 4- 6-2014 14:35:21:085]- LOG(8F0): IsNewDeviceConnected(vidpidList with 6 elements)
[ 4- 6-2014 14:35:21:153]- LOG(8F0): _GetUSBDevice(index=0, vidpid=VID_03F0&PID_3D17)

[ 4- 6-2014 14:35:21:895]- LOG(8F0): _GetUSBDevice first time so GetClassDevs
- note that after connecting the printer's USB, the printer appeared in the Devices and Printers Windows view. However, when I click on Properties and Driver -> Hardware I get that no drivers have been loaded for it.
It looks like the program cannot find the connected printer it this is causing the failure. Here is a download link to the full log file: log.
I've also checked the following two threads which adress similar problems, but there is no workaround in there for my specific problem:
- HP LaserJet p1005 windows 8 driver ?
- Windows 8 driver for LaserJet P1005 printer?
Please advice on how to proceed in this situation. Please let me know if you need further information.
Best regards,

New Printer Drivers won't load in Mac App Store

Hi!
I've recently update my mid-2014 rMBP to the Final release of Yosemite, up from the Yosemite Public Beta 6. I've been able, during the beta phase to add my home printer (an HP OfficeJet 4500) after (or before?) the Mac App Store had downloaded the required HP drivers (3.3.1).
Now, however, I'm trying to add an HP LaserJet 1200 series (whose drivers are in the official list). I've tried several times, asked the MAS to check for new updates a thousand times but still it won't download any new printer drivers.
When adding the printer and selecting the driver from the list of drivers bundled with OS X, I could see various printers (with a large number of HP printers who use the aforementioned 3.0 drivers which have been downloaded already), but no HP LaserJet 1200. I don't have them because they're not the same as the 3.0 ones. On my sister's 2010 MBP, which didn't go through the beta testing phase, I found what seems to be all the drivers from the list (at least there was the one for the 1200 Series).
So my question is, how do I somehow "trigger" the MAS to download the required drivers (19.8) ? Is anyone else having troubles installing printer drivers?

Thank you for your quick reply! I've deleted the hp folder (and moved the PPD relating to the printer which is already installed, the OfficeJet, just to see if it would help) and had the MAS check for new updates. No success yet, though.
However there's a slight misunderstanding regarding which drivers I'm trying to install : I already have the 3.3.1 drivers (for the OfficeJet) but the drivers which won't download are the 19.8 for the LaserJet printer. are these separately downloadable too?

HP Color LaserJet 2550 series

Hi,
I installed the HP Printer Driver Pack available on the Apple site for my HP Color LaserJet 2550 series printer. It works, but there are some odd things here.
First, the driver can't read the printer state. Like how much is left for each colour and things like that. It just says, No information available.
Second, When I print after I already printed something else the printer will be unavailable according to the driver. I need to turn of the printer and back on for it to print again.
Third, When there is an image on one of the pages (LibreOffice) it takes forever for that page to be printed.
Via the App Store I get new versions of the driver pack, so I am up to date.
Also, when I connect this same printer to my Laptop (Linux) everything works. These are HP drivers for Linux. My laptop can read the printer and ink/toner status. I don't have to turn off the printer after each job and images print a lot faster. Ok, real big high ress photos not, but normal images just roll out. Whilst on my Mac it takes minutes.
So in my opinion there is something wrong with the driver. I reinstalled the printer, and due to some other issue I reinstalled OS X but the problem remained.
I hope there is a resolution for this.
Thanks,
Ricardo

I managed to get some success by rebuilding as described in another posting:

Re: HP Laserjet 2550L prints one job then hangs
Jun 15, 2012 2:13 AM (in response to Fami R.)
I had this issue too with my HP 2550. No more printing after the first printjob possible
I managed to get the printer working as expected by removing the hp_io_enabler kext.
sudo -s
mkdir /Valhalla
mv /System/Library/Extensions/hp_io_printerclassdriver_enabler.kext /Valhalla
exit
Wait for the systemcaches to be rebuilt and reboot. You can see if the caches are being rebuilt by opening the Activity Tool, the process is named kextcache.
You need to have the Valhalla Folder in root of course.
Not very mac-like, but it works

HP laserjet 1200 series not responding

I just got an hp laserjet 1200 series printer from a friend that used it on his pc. I can't seem to get my computer to recognize it. I have tried going to the hp page and downloading the driver and the software, which I thought I did, but when I open printer setup utility and look for new drivers, nothing appears. Any ideas?

Is your printer connected through a hub or directly to the computer?

HP LaserJet 1200 series BW USB problem

I am unable to re install my HP BW LaserJet 1200 series printer. My system is WIN XP PRO, SP3.
The printer was working fine, then something happened and the printer is not listed in Device manager. The printer self check works OK,, but when I plug in the USB cable, there is no screen respons that a new USB device has been found.
Note , I have 2 flash drives attached to the USB ports that work OK.
I tried to re install the 1200 series driver, but the printer is not listed in Device manager.
Any suggestions troubleshooting tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,

I've often had this problem when I start a print but the 1200 is not connected, or for other reasons. I either:
1. Turn the HP 1200 off then on; or
2. Go to Print centre and delete the job.
One of these always fixes the problem.
