Hp laserjet 1018 on windows 7 64 bit computer

have hp laserjet 1018 long time working ok. suddenly without any messages the printer stopped printing from any software. The printer does print its test page. I suspect driver corruption. Cannot find a solution without having to pay a lot. Can you help? My printer product # is CB419AR. I am new at this, but may have used this Forum one time many years ago successfully. I tried to download the driver but not sure that i did it correctly
other question; what are TAGS

Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see by your post that the printer isn't printing from the software programs but will print the test page.
I can help you with this issue.
You can put anything you like in the tags. They are basically used to find your issue quicker when doing a search for a specific issue.
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it.
Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
If the issue persists then uninstall and reinstall the newest drivers online.
Uninstall the old software first. Disconnect the USB cable.
Uninstalling the Printer Software.
I would suggest downloading the Full Feature Software if it is available for your operating system.

Problems installing HP LaserJet 1018 printer on new MacBook Pro

Hi all,
I just entered the wonderful world of Mac and I am really enjoying it. Too bad I waited so long. However, I have a problem installing my printer, an HP LaserJet 1018 printer, on my new MacBook Pro intel based computer. I checked at HP's website and it says that the printer is not supported for the Mac environment. Could there be other possibilities with drivers to download or should I buy a new printer?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Christian
MacBook Pro 15", Intel based Mac OS X (10.4)

Hi Crelle,
When the manufacturer says they don't support something, it's generally best to stay away from it.
There's almost always 3 ways to do any 1 thing, but you may need you printer to do more than 1 thing and therefore you're going to have issues with all the other things.
Printing to a printer sounds like 1 thing, but it's not.
It's many things working together to get ink on paper.
My advise is get a supported printer and live without a headache.

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. Tried to follow some suggestions found here but nothing is working. Any new suggestions?

I can't get new version of itunes to install on Windows 7 64 bit computer. Receive message that reads insufficient privileges to access c:\program files\ipod\bin. I've followed several threads I've read here but nothing is working.

For such situation, I'd suggest the following:
1. Remove current installed office with the fix-it tool in
KB2739501, and follow the "Remove Office manually" section to make sure there are no remaining files
2. Either download a trial version of Office 2013 from
http://office.microsoft.com/, or from

3. Reboot your computer in clean boot mode, and run setup again

I am unable to download Photoshop 2 on to my new 64 bit computer

I am unable to download Adobe Photoshop 2 on the my new 64 bit computer. Is there any way I can acheive this? If not, I cannot afford the latest version, so which version could I buy more reasonably which would be compatible?

Well, pointless exercise. There is no way to get older versions other than buying used copies from someone else with all the trouble like having to do a Transfer an Adobe product license. The first version to certifiably run on Win 7 64bit is CS4.

Do I have to give up Palm Desktop 4.2 with my new Windows 7 64-bit Computer?

Just got a new Windows 7, 64-bit computer. I am completely dependent on my Palm Desktop 4.2 software and don't want to give it up. However, I was told by an online chat rep. that I needed a bluetooth connection to hot synch my Centro with my new computer. Ran out and bought it, but it seems that on Palm Desktop v. 4.2 there is no option to hot synch via bluetooth...obviously, the program is too old.
Does this mean I have to "upgrade" to Palm Desktop 6.2? Yuk! This version stinks! 4.2 is the reason I'm on my 3rd Palm product. Is there a different calendar software that you can hot synch with a desktop calendar? Has anyone had any success with this?
Any advice would be appreciated!

No windows 7 64 bit USB driver, PALM is SO OVER.
Sad I love my CENTRO on SPRINT. I have 3 on my account and 2 7xx. USB Bluetooth dongles are cheap but annoyingly flakey because of the crummy software that comes with them AND will they work with PTunes? It didn't when I tried Bluetooth on Windows XP.
At the END of the day, if PALM is not committed enough to put out a windows 7 64 bit USB driver how can I be committed to this phone. Looks like Android is getting help from palm, although I don't want to deal with learning a new phone.
If you find a good USB Bluetooth dongle device that works let us know here.
By the way, this ANNOYING chat board says me first name is an OBSCENE word. PALM is insulting their loyal customer base. I'll see if the Android board will let me use my first name. :-)
Thanks,

How do I run a new Ipod on an older 500mhz 32 bit computer? New ipod requires v 10.6.3 or higher which also requires 64 bit or 1ghz speed.

ATA bus error means that data corruption occurred during transmission over ATA bus (SATA or PATA). This type of errors can be indicated by

On some controllers, command timeout. In this case, there may be a mechanism to determine that the timeout is due to transmission error.
Unknown/random errors, timeouts and all sorts of weirdities.
As described above, transmission errors can cause wide variety of symptoms ranging from device ICRC error to random device lockup, and, for many cases, there is no way to tell if an error condition is due to transmission error or not; therefore, it's necessary to employ some kind of heuristic when dealing with errors and timeouts. For example, encountering repetitive ABRT errors for known supported command is likely to indicate ATA bus error.
Once it's determined that ATA bus errors have possibly occurred, lowering ATA bus transmission speed is one of actions which may alleviate the problem.
I'd also add; make sure you have good backups when ATA errors are frequent

Try opening directly from your desktop, by passing the welcome screen.
Go to Windows Explorer>C drive>Program Files (x86)>Adobe>Photoshop elements 11. Right click, then Send to>Desktop
Double click on the shortcut and see it will open.

I purchased Lightroom 3, 2 years ago. My computer was 64 bit, just bought a 32 bit, this 64 bit program will not download onto my new 32 bit computer. What to do?

There should be a 32-bit installer as well. It should be part of whatever installer package you have. I don't know if you are aware, but when Lightroom 6 is released there will be no 32-bit support for Windows or the Mac. But then, if you are still using Lightroom 3 that probably doesn't matter to you.

Printer spool issue with HP LaserJet 1018

I seem to be having a recurring problem with the HP LaserJet 1018 that I am hoping someone has also had and can help me resolve. When I go to print I get a message that I need to set up a printer (it does not recognize the printer is there). When I click on set up a new printer, I receive a message that the local print spooler service is not running. Nothing I do seems to solve the problem.
This happened to me with my previous 1018 printer. The exact same thing. I had a second 1018 available to me that I connected and it worked just fine for about two months and now is doing the same thing as the first.
I have an HP Pavilion Entertainment PC with Windows 7 (64 bit) operating system. I previously had a Dell with Windows XP that the first printer worked on for a long time (maybe 2+ years). I got this new computer within the past six months and both these printers stopped working while on this computer.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Welcome to the HP Forums fastndfury,
I see by your post that you are only getting the error on the Windows 8 computer, "The scanner is currently in use. Please wait until your previous task is completed and then try scanning again." I can help you with this issue.
I have provided a document to go through the steps to see if it will help resolve this issue.

Laserjet 1018 won't work on windows 7

I've got an HP Laserjet 1018 that works just fine on Windows Vista 64-bit. I just built a new PC and put Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit onto it. The drivers on the HP support site don't work. When I try printing something, it gets sent to the printer and just disappears. I pause printing to see that the document actually does get sent to the printer and it shows up. As soon as I un-pause the printer, the document disappears, but nothing prints. Normally, when something is sent to the printer, the yellow "information" LED lights up momentarily and the document then prints. The LED does not light up at all. I have tried new cables, uninstalling and re-installing, etc. Nothing works. Just to be sure that it isn't a general printing problem, I hooked up a Laserjet 1020 onto the new machine and it works just fine. However, that's my work printer and I can't leave it on the new computer which is a personal computer for my home. This worked to identify that my copy of Windows 7 can indeed print, but this cannot be a long-term solution. Help?
This question was solved.

Hello,
Thanks for the post. On this one, I have a couple of ideas. I've pasted the links below. One is for the Win7/64 driver page and the print diagnostic utility. I would certainly recommend the utility to help narrow down the issue. The other is a queue related document which has some excellent information. Good Luck!

HP LaserJet 1018 freezes when trying to print from Homegroup user

1. I have recently upgraded the OS on my laptop cumputer to Windows 7 SP-1 Ultimate to make it compatible with my desktop.
2. I run a ethernet/wireless network and I have 3 printers attached to the network:
(a) an HP 1018 attached to my desktop and have no problems printing from it;
(b) A second HP 1018 attached to a printserver (Belkin Home Base Control Center (Software version 1.0.0. SKUPTP Driver 3.3.8.0). The Belkin Control Center is attached to my network wirelessly. I have no problem printinting through this printer from my desktop. Nor did I have problems printing through this printserver when my laptop was running Vista Ultimate SP3;
(c) a Photosmart all-in-one C7280 printer attached to my network wirelessly. I have no problem printing from this printer either from my desktop OR my laptop regardless of operating system.
3. When my laptop was running Windows Vista Ultimate and my desktop was on Windows 7, the laptop was able to print through my desktop to the USB HP LaserJet 1018 as well as the HP LaserJet attached to the Belkin Home Base Control Center. At no time has my laptop had problems printing to the HP Photosmart printer.
4.When I upgraded my laptop's OS to Windows 7 SP1 and joined both the desktop and the laptop through homegroup networking, however, I have experienced the following problems:
(a) When the laptop attempts to print through the USB-connected HP LAserJet attached to my desktop, the action is recognised by both computers i.e., one computer printer status indicates that the print job is spooling to the USB printer; the printer indicater on my desktop indicates that the printjob is printing. However, nothing gets printed and the job is suspended.
When I try to cancel the printjob, both print status indicators tells me that the file is being deleted. However, it remains in that state even after a restart of both my computers.
I am unable to cancel the job -and unable to print directly from my host desktop computer- until I physically delete the print device, turn off the printer and restart the computer.
(b) The Belkin Home Base Center on my laptop recognises that the second HP laserJet printer is attached to it and will indicate the fact and ask me if I want to load the print driver. When I indicate yes, the laptop attempts to load the driver, but hangs up while doing so. When I cancel the request and proceed to load the print driver on my laptop directly, the device appears as "Unspecified" rather than a printer on my device manager and I am unable to print from either my laptop or my desktop. Again, I need to delete the devices from both my desktop and laptop and restart just so that I can print from my desktop.
4. As indicated above, printing to and through my Photosmart C7280 wireless printer is fine whether I try from my desktop or laptop. Also, I am able to use my Cannon LiDe 500F scanner, that is also attached to the Belkin Home Base Center from both the desktop and laptop.
SUMMARY:
1. HP LaserJet 1018 printers can be shared between a desktop running Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate and a laptop running Vista SP3 Ultimate on a local network.
2. The Windows 7 desktop and the Vista laptop can both share an HP 1018 printer attached to a Belkin Home Base Center printserver
3. When the laptop is upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and joined to the desktop through Homegroup networking, the laptop can no longer print through the HP1018 printer attached to the desktop, and any attempts to do so will freeze the printer so that not even the desktop can use it unless the device is removed and restarted on the desktop.
4. Both the desktop and laptop computers can communicate with the Belkin Home Base Center printserver and activate a Cannon scanner also attached to this printserver. The desktop can also print through a second HP 1018 printer attached to this printserver. However, when the laptop attempts to print through the printserver, the print job freezes on both the desktop and laptop computers.
5. Regardless of operating system or method of being networked, both the desktop and the laptop are able to print through a Photosmart C7280 printer.
What appears to be the incompatibility between HP LaserJet 1018 printers and Homegroup networking, and how can it be resolved?

Hello computerdude100, welcome to the forums
I read through your post about the issues you have been having since changing your router to the Linksys WRT1900AC. From how you are describing it, the printer itself seems okay without the new router, as your previous router setup worked fine and a the local connection to your computer works fine. The hardware is proving out to be okay.
I do recommend contacting Linksys to see if they can configure the settings for you as it is not communicating with the printer.

HP Laserjet 1018 does not print (Vista)

Hi,
I've had the HP Laserjet 1018 for about 2 years and have been a very happy customer. Recently I upgraded to Windows 7 and have been using it without trouble for a few months. Just a few days ago I started having some spooler problems on Windows 7. Eventually the printer would not respond. I also have a laptop running Vista so decided to just use print using Vista instead.
The problem I'm having on Vista now is that when I send a print command, the printer does go into a warm-up state for about two to three seconds. I can hear moving parts inside and at the same time the 2 lights blink alternatively. But after this warm-up state the printer would just stop. At this pint the print queue on windows would be empty again, as if the print job has been complete.
I've used this printer with my Vista laptop for a long time without any problem. I hope this is a common problem and can be easily resolved. Thanks in advance for helping me out.

I have a similar problem. Dell XPS 64 bit desk top using Laserjet 1018 with Vista. Upgrade to Win 7 four months ago without a problem. Six days ago the print spooler stopped and stops immediately every time I start it. Pages of error reports in event log, but can't find one with a cause (that I can understand anyway). Cannot print. Can't uninstall HP drivers to install any new drivers because the spooler is stopped. Ran Windows system file checker without a problem documented. Windows says the printer is working and trouble shooter did not help. Printers display on control panel with limited function upon right click. Can't choose print directly to printer. A number of similar posts on Microsoft site without viable solution.

Hello muffa,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I see you are attempting to install the LaserJet 1018 onto your new Mac, probably 10.9. From the research I have done, this printer is not supported on any Mac.
There is not much in this document, but it does display which LaserJet printers are not supported: This Product Is Not Supported in Any Macintosh Environment.
I have even looked into what Apple drivers are available for this printer, it seems there is nothing either. Here is the list: OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download.

JERENDS
