HP LaserJet 1020 , Windows 7

LaserJet 1020 worked flawlessly until 1-9-2013 when Windows did an update.  Printer is now not recognized.  Download of Windows 7 driver from HP did not fix problem.  Test of printer with printer utility shows no problem within printer, test page prints fine, yet unable to print documents in Word and other apps.

  • LaserJet 1020 Windows 7 x64 driver not working!

    Hello. I have problem. I have recently installed Windows 7 x64, and when I tried to install driver for my LaserJet 1020 from this site, an error appeared.
    First, when I launched the driver installer, I agreed with license agreement and proceeded. Than, loading bar appeared, it came to 3 division sticks in it and text above was like "Preinstalling the driver files". Then, suddenly, for a split-second "Copying files to the hard drive." text appeared, than again "Preinstalling the driver...", and it appeared again for less than a second, and again, and again... Than, after a few times, it just crushed, with Windows message "Printer Software Installer" is not working". 
    And one more: in Program Files -> HP folder there are lots of driver files (which seem not to be working) and another HP folder with same file and HP folder in it... Recursion of some kind, I think.
    So, what should I do? I can't use my printer for a long time because of this driver!
    I'm haven't spoken English for a while, so, if I explained something strange, ask, I'll try to explain better =)
    This question was solved.

    Who is awesome? I'm awesome! ^_^ 
    I used russian version of the driver, worked flawlessly =) 
    Take it from here. Glad, if I could help =)

  • Windows XP pro and HP laserjet 1020

    I've been trying to figure out how to successfully print from a powerbook to a laserjet 1020 that is being shared on XP. Has anyone successfully configured a mac to work with it? If so, can you help walk me through the steps?
    Thanks.

    I have a similar problem. I have a 1022,it is attached via USB to my (ugh) Windows XP computer. The Windows box is connected to my router, and I can access and print to the Laserjet via Windows Printing. BUT .... even though I have installed the driver on both the Windows box and the Mac (the HP Laserjet 1022 does not appear on the pulldown menu along with the many otehr HP products) I cannot get it to register as a 1022 when I print from my Mac. I can print ... I lied and told the computers that it was an HP Laserjet 4 ... but my guess is I am losing some functionality. Any ideas? how does one get the 1022 into the dropdown menu?
    Thanks!

  • HP Laserjet 1020 connected to Airport Express - Can't Print from Windows XP

    Hi,
    I have been using Airport Express for almost a year now, and it works fine with my old LaserJet 1200 connected to it, meaning that BOTH my ThinkPad(WinXP) and PowerBook(OSX 10.3) prints off the printer nicely. Last week I bought a LaserJet 1020 to replace the old printer. Now I can only print off my Mac, and not the ThinkPad.
    Here are some additional information:
    - Airport Express has been updated with latest updates.
    - Using newest printer driver available from the HP website.
    - New printer works when connected to ThinkPad via USB.
    - New printer works when connected to Airport Express and printing performed using my PowerBook.
    Therefore, My conclusion is that Airport Express and Printer is working just fine, and that it's just my ThinkPad not being configured correctly. (Although at the back of my head I am guessing that just MAYBE it's the Airport Express not accepting a different printer)
    This is what I did to install the printer from my ThinkPad to work with Airport Express (which is not working):
    1. Add a printer
    2. Local printer attached to computer (no auto detect)
    3. Selected existing TCP/IP port 10.0.1.1
    4. Selected my new printer driver
    5. Finish
    I also tried a few things like:
    - Deleting the TCP/IP port and creating it again before installing the new printer again.
    - Off both airport express and printer and on again after about 10sec.Airport was on first, and after the LED turn green, printer was turned on and USB plugged into airport.
    - Restarting my ThinkPad.
    I have tried everything that I can think of, and nothing worked... hence this posting to get professional help.

    Hi,
    You might want to download and install bonjour for windows to your Thinkpad it is how I got my roomates XP laptop to print on AX.

  • Laserjet 1020 install on windows 7 machine

    I am trying to install a laserjet 1020 on a windows home machine. i get a message saying waiting for PnP to finish installing driver.  This is where it hangs.  thanks

    PnP tells the printer device drivers where and how to install the 1020.
    Did you plug in the 1020 b4 running the Win7 install software?

  • How to install hp laserjet 1020 on windows xp

    sir, i want to install hp laserjet printer on windows xp. it is displaying an error message "inappropriate invocation.unable to start application".
    plz tell me what to do and how...

    Hello priyasim,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand you are receiving a message "Inappropriate invocation, unable to start application". I will try my best to help you resolve this issue.
    I would recommend following this Microsoft document on You Are Unable to Start a Program with an .exe File Extension. If you are still unable to install the Laserjet 1020, then you would have to perform a clean install of Windows.
    Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

  • Sharing HP Laserjet 1020 from Windows to Mac

    From Windows PC AA I can see folders shared from Windows PC BB and also see and use the HP Laserjet 1020 shared from Windows PC BB. From the Mac I am able to see folders shared from Windows PC BB. But I CANNOT see (or use) the HP Laserjet 1020? I tried adding a printer when printing on the Mac (Tiger)and could get to the Windows Network and find Windows PC BB - but the printer does not get listed. Using the same steps I am able to see and use a printer on Windows PC AA. What gives? How can I delete all references, keychains etc. to Windows PC BB and start again (assuming that may be the issue)? Error messages or log entries as to why this is failing would be nice.

    Hi Ron
    Take a look at these two iFelix articles below, maybe you have just overlooked something simple! The first one walks you thru the steps with the printer connect to the PC sharing with the iMac. The second is turned around with the printer connected to the iMac sharing with the PC.

  • Hp laserjet 1020 plus driver for windows 98

    i want to download hp lasejet1020 plus driver for windows 98 ,on hp site win98 operating system are not available on list.
    Please send me driver on my email,because still i am using win98 for some necessary work which are not supported on upper verson.

    I did some research and found at one point Win 98, Win ME, and Win 2000 all used the same driver for this printer (atleast from what i could ascertain). Given that information, I would assume that the current available Win 2000 driver MAY work for Win 98 (can't be certain as I do not have a Laserjet 1020 plus to test this). Here is a link to that software if you wish to try it:

  • HP LaserJet 1020 Printer - booklet printing (Operating System Windows XP)

    We were using above option earlier in HP Laserjet 1020 Printer. Presently, the printer is not responding to this option. We tried to reinstall several times using the driver software supplied with the printer but this particular option did not work. Rest of the normal functions of the printer is performing satisfactorily. Please advice us how to sort out this issue.
    More Details:Earlier, after complete printing the pages to be printed on one side, the printer will pause and the button will show red and blink. Also, while pausing, the monitor used to display "how to keep the bunch of papers already printd to be kept in the lower tray for printing on the backside of the sheets". Presently, the first phase is happening, ie., printing the bunch of papers on one side and the printer pasuses. Afterwards, the blinking of the red light, display on the monitor depicting how to keep the sheets in the lower tray for continuing the balance of the print is not appearing. Since there is no indication or response we are forced to "end task", and come out of the situation.
    With regards and best wishes

    Hi 
    You can try running the following utility at the link below. It sounds like a network issue since you are able to print fine when you give the users admin rights.

  • What happened to the printer driver for the HP Laserjet 1020?

    After installing HP Printer Driver Update v1.1.1 for Mac OS X 10.5.3 my HP Laserjet 1020 no longer works. When I sent a print command from any software it seemed to work properly, but nothing printed. The information in printer utility window indicated that the printer was ready and there were no items in the queue.
    I removed the printer and attempted to reinstall with the updated driver. However, there is no driver for the 1020 in the driver selection menu, despite the fact that it is listed as one of the drivers included in the update.
    Can anyone suggest where I can obtain the appropriate driver?

    greg sahli: I followed your suggestion to reset the printing system and re-install the driver update. While there is indeed a Receipt for the 1022 Series pkg, the driver does not appear in the drop down menu. The drivers closest to the 1020 that appear are 1010, 1012, 1015, and 1100. None of these drivers work.
    I did find an 80% solution at Macosxhints. I will make do with this until the new OS X system comes out. If it has the 1020 or 1022 driver that works with my printer I would probably buy it. However, if it does not and the fix from Macosxhints doesn't work with Snow Leopard I'll be hard pressed to justify an upgrade until my printer dies.
    Anyone interested can find it at the following url, if it is still active (there are no spaces in the url):

  • Problem with HP LaserJet 1020

    I had been using my HP LaserJet 1020 on my MacBook for 2 years with no problems, but my hard drive died this week and I had to get it replaced. Now my computer is running on 10.4.11, and no matter what I do, I cannot get the printer to install. I've looked at dozens of threads on various websites and nothing seems to work for this version of Tiger. Can anyone help, PLEASE? Thanks!

    Before you start blaming HP I think it wise to check to see if HP ever intended this machine to run on OS X. Had you bothered to check you would have seen it never was as HP does NOT supply an OS X driver for it therefore they aren't responsible for it working on OS X. This is like blaming Ford when an Explorer sinks in a lake....Ford never intended the Explorer to float and isn't responsible for someone getting into that situation.
    The OP should have known that when he started using the printer, if he ever got it to work on OS X he was very fortunate and should not expect support from HP. My suggestion is prior to buying a printer (or any other perifpheral)due your due dillegence and see if it was ever intended to work with your computer, whether it's OS X, Windows, Linux, Unix or whatever. If you still choose to purchase that perfiferal realize you are swimming on your own with no support from the manufacturer.

  • Laserjet 1020 printer doesn't work through airport express. PLEASE help me

    Hi everyone. I've just bought a laserjet 1020, and though I can perfectly "see" it through the airport admin utility, there is no way to have a page printed. Works perfectly when connect it to the laptop through usb though. I have already tried every iFelix solutions, changed drivers (HP 1022, etc.), bonjour for windows, manual configurations, etc. Is there something else out there that I didn't figure out? Please help me. I'm in one of those moments where there are no more ways left to check out in google. I will really appreciate any advice.
    Regards,
    Martin.

    There are issues with regard to HP and Apples.
    I take it that your Laserjet is plugged into the XP computer and that you are tryiny to print to it over a network.
    Try this:
    Go to System Preferences> click on "+" to "Add Printer", at the next page click on "More printers", this should then bring up a box with the name of your network in it. It will then show the name of your Apple and that of the PC into which the LAN cable from the router is plugged, click on this PC and the next box should throw up the name of the printer, click on this, then DON"T click on ADD but on the slot with "Generic" showing, you can then scroll down the list to Laserjet, click on that and find the "Gimp" version of the driver with your printer's model number, this is the one you should ADD.
    Now this may work first time, unlikely given Apple's track record of network printing foul ups; you may have it print only a 1/4 page. If this happens, try "ADDing" a driver from higher up the Laserjet range; this is what I had to do to get my Canon iP3000 to work (I use the iP8000 driver with reasonable success)
    There are also CUPS+GIMP drivers in the list; with the Canon these just printed a 1/4 page of solid black, nice for the ink manufacturers, but expensive for us!
    The Gimp drivers are a third party product, 2 years out of date, and for which Apple accept no responsibility.
