Hp LaserJet 3050 and Windows & Windows 7

It appears the price we pay for Windows 7 is loss of most of the functionality of our HP all-in-one units.  Sure they print but they do not do anything else because the software stopped working and there is no fix, at least not for mine (use Windows scan - what a crock).  I am going to get another unit (note I did not say new as this is less than a year old) and it will not be HP.   I have never owned anything else so this will be an adventure.  I hope the recycle place is open this afternoon.  Bye Bye HP.

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
I hope this helps.

  • Scanning problem with HP Laserjet 3050 and Windows 7 64-bit

    I understand that to use the HP 3050 with Windows 7 64-bit I must use the Windows Fax and Scan software.  However, if I try to scan using anything greater than a 200 dpi resolution, the document takes forever!  Any workarounds?
    Also, was doesn't pdf show up as a document type choice?

  • HP Laserjet 3050 Not Printing

    I have the HP Laserjet 3050 and as soon as I click print, the printer goes into pause mode. I have removed the drivers, removed the printer from the library file, reset all printers and this problem still occurs. Is anyone else having this issue? Also will scanning ever be supported with this printer?
    Thanks!

    My HP Multipurpose LaserJet 3030 is working NOT similarly. Deleting the print queue, restartin, reseting the printing system, even updating HP drivers thru Software update (to 2.0) doesn't work. The best I can do is have the print queue say the printer is idle and ready. Driver version 5.3.0 is listed as working on Apple's website, interestingly, this version did NOT change after updating HP Drivers 2.0 thru SoftwareUpdate.
    Every time I add a print job to the queue, the printer pauses and won't resume, clicking resume repeatidly I occasionally view a g;ajsglsdflksf USB error, but, it disappears too fast to read accurately. If I delete the print the job from the queue I can then resume the printer. That lasts until the next job is added, putting the printer permanently into "Paused" purgatory!! aka the HP PP syndrome!!

  • Scanning with windows 8.1 and laserjet 3050

    I have had my Laserjet 3050 for many years and all printer functions have worked well for that time using Windows XP.  I have two new computers now. One with Windows 8.1 and the other a Mac with OS 10.9.  I am able to print with the LaserJet from either computer but unable to scan to saving to computer on either computer.  I have checked for HP updates and new drivers but no success.  UIn XP I would go to the Start menu and then programs to the HP folder and there I would click on scan.  There is no such program or application or HP folder on new either computer.  The Windows 8.1 will not read the installation disc that came with the Laserjet 3050.  What do I have to do to be able to scan and save to computer?  

    OK, I figured out how to scan in Windows 8.1 but still unable to do it in OS10.10.  I can print to Laserjet.  My LaserJet 3050 is recognized in System Preferences/Printers & Scanners but to scan my LaserJet and Mac don't see each other.  I am not able to find an app to do this function.  How do I correct this?

  • Laserjet 6P and Windows 8.1 Driver

    The Laserjet 6P is not in the Printer list in Windows 8.1 and I don't see it as a supported OS at HP.com.  Does anyone know a driver in Windows 8.1 that I can use for my old, but sturdy Laserjet 6P?

    My Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit system has built-in drivers for this printer model:
    I don't know whether the drivers are present on a fresh Windows install; they may only have appeared in the list after the Windows Update button was clicked on the above Add Printers dialogue, then waiting (perhaps for several minutes) whilst additional drivers were downloaded, and the list repopulated.

  • HP Laserjet 4000 and 6L in Windows 7 - cannot locate drivers

    I recently purchased an Asus laptop, Windows 7 operating system, 64-bit. I am trying to install HP LaserJet 4000 and HP LaserJet 6L printers to this computer with a parallel-to-USB cable.
    The computer allows me to install the 6L, and the printer appears in “Devices and Printers.” However, I cannot print pages.  I checked with the Windows Compatibility Center website, and this printer is supposed to run in Windows 7 without additional drivers.  Restarting has not helped.
    The HP LaserJet 4000 will not install. I went to HP’s website and found the page for LaserJet 4000 drivers.  There are two boxes on this page: “Drivers” and “Universal Print Drivers.”  The driver listed under “Drivers” does not have a download button, only an “Obtain Software” link giving me instructions on navigating to the very page I am on.  I am not sure what Universal Print Drivers are or if they are what I should be installing.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    There are Laserjet 4000 drivers available through Windows Update.  Go to Start, Devices and Printers, Add a Printer, select the proper port, then click on Windows Update.  After a few minutes the list will repopulate, next select HP (not Hewlett-Packard) and select the appropriate driver.  Note you will need an appropriate driver for your USB-parallel cable.

  • HP LASERJET SERVICE and WINDOWS 7 PRO CRASH

    My windows 7 pro 64bit will lock up every so often and when I restart and run the Windows reliability monitor  there's always a critical error "HP Laserjet Service" which stopped working right at the same time as  the crash.
    In msconfig/services the box is checked and the status is stopped.
    That critical error message is always the only one listed by the way.
    Printer is the P1102W and I'm only using the wifi.
    Printer always works fine.
    Appreciate any suggestions.

    Hi aelumley , Sorry to hear you are still having issues. After reinstalling the printer, the icon is now grayed out.
    Did you try turning the Laserjet Services in the Startup items back on again to see if that would fix this 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?
    I would run the Microsoft Fix It Tool to see if it will help.

  • Driver(s) to print on HP Laserjet 4000n and HP Deskjet 722C printers for Windows 7 (64bit)

    I'm introducing a Windows 7 64bit) computer in a network of Windows XP (32bit) computers.
    How do I find driver(s) to print on HP Laserjet 4000n and HP Deskjet 722C printers in a network that uses Windows 7 (64bit) and Windows XP (32bit)?  Printer sharing is done using a Windows XP (32bit) base computer.
    Should I load a 64bit driver on the 32bit XP computer for the benefit of the Windows 7 computer or will that mess up the XP computer?
    Thanks

    Hello, the HP laser jet 4000n you install the drivers via windows update procedure.  The HP 722C is not supported under Windows 7 due to it's age.

  • Windows, LaserJet 2605, and Tiger...

    Hello All,
    I have an HP LaserJet 6MP printer connected to an HP JetDirect 300X print server - all of which I assume is using AppleTalk for printing - on my network at home. The printer works great from the Mac PowerBook and desktop systems.
    I'm interested in a Color LaserJet 2605dn because I want to be able to print in color and also double sided.
    My wife, due to impositions of external forces, is stuck on a Windows box (poor thing, it's really a come down from her previous 12" PowerBook).
    So, on to my questions:
    1) I can't seem to get the Windows machine to see the JetDirect box or the LJ6MP - I assume, at least in part, because it's running AppleTalk. Any ideas?
    2) If I go out and plunk down the currency for the LJ2605dn, will it be a simple plug and play install? Just plug it in to my Ethernet switch and both the Mac and the Windows machines will see it? If not, what can I expect?
    2a) Do I use static or dynamic IP addressing for the LJ2605dn?
    3) Is anyone doing anything like this now? Does it work? Was a nightmare to configure?
    Thanks for the help!

    For the Jetdirect -
    Appletalk doesn't interfere with printing via TCP/IP. You need to set the IP address of the Jetdirect (it may already have one by DHCP, but you should set it statically instead). The easiest way to do that is using the Web Jetadmin download from HP. Then Add the printer as a network printer, check the raw button in settings (equals HP Jetdirect protocol on OS X).

  • AirPort Extreme and HP LaserJet 3050 Scanning Problem

    Ok, I am hoping someone can help me with this problem. I have an iMac, HP LaserJet 3050 printer and I just replaced my Netgear router with an AirPort Extreme router last night. I made the switch because I wanted to print wirelessly on my wife's laptop in addition to the hardwired iMac, and for the N standard. Prior to this, my HP 3050 was hooked up via USB to the iMac, but now it is hooked up to the USB on the AE.
    Install was easy - got iMac internet running, found printer, laptop connected, and used Bonjour for Windows to get the laptop to print also. The only thing I can't do is scan with the printer anymore. Before, when I loaded a document, the HP Director would pop up and I just hit scan. Now it won't pop up, and if I open it manually, just about all of the options are not highlighted to use. Is HP Director just not looking in the right spot anymore? Don't know if that is the correct terminology since I am a recent Mac convert. I also was going to rerun the HP Director Setup software, and it asks if its a USB or Network printer, and no matter which I click, it can't find either. I figure its a network printer now as opposed to when I had it hardwired directly to the iMac. If I click the network option and manually try, it asks for printer name/path (something like that). What would I be putting in there...an IP address or something? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I love the new router and wireless printing, but I would still like to be able to scan items using the HP Director/Scan software. Thanks!!!!!!!

    Scanning is not possible.
    Can I scan using my all-in-one when it is connected to the USB port of an Airport Express or Airport Extreme Base Station?

  • Unable to install HP Laserjet P1005 on a Windows 7 64-bit OS system

    I have attempted to install both the full package and just the driver for an HP Laserjet P1005 local printer to my personal PC which I updated the OS to MS WIndows 7, 64-bit version numerous times and I have been unsuccessful each time. On each attempt to run the installer, whether it be the full version or just the driver, and you come to the point in the installation process where you are to plug in your local printer's USB cable to your PC I keep encountering an error message indicating that the USB device is not recognized. A further investigation reveals that there is in fact an unknown device. I click on this and I encounter a Microsoft generated message which indicates the following information - Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
    The following Microsoft web site - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310123 
    has the following Recommended resolution
    One of the drivers controlling the device notified the operating system that the device failed in some manner.
    If you have already run the Troubleshooting Wizard, you might want to check the hardware documentation for more information about diagnosing the problem.
    Well, I went through all of the above recommended actions and I got nowhere. I went back on the web and did some further research. This time I found the following information at the following HP web page -http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-59850-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&lang=en&os=1060&product=3435668
    This was a link to an HP web page which pertained to a so-called repair utility software that was for an HP Laserjet P1000 and P1500 Series Plug and Play Recovery Utility.I tried this but it has not rectified my problem installing the driver for my local printer.If you have the magical solution to this problem I would appreciate it if you could provide it to me. Thank you.

    WendyM: I seem to have EXACTLY the same problem...
    - New Sony Vaio with Windows 7 Home Basic 64bit factory installed
    - HP LaserJet P1005 as a local printer
    - P1005 was first installed on the Vaio using the original install CD and sort of worked
    - worked OK for the installing user but only intermittently for the other user
    - both users had problems with the printer queue locking up in various situations (only solution was to reboot)
    - decide to try and update the installation of the printer
    - downloaded both the driver files you speak of from HP
    - small Plug and Play file (c4Mb) got into endless loop when trying to pre-install drivers and had to be killed
    - large full installation file (c167Mb) also failed to install properly
    - tried uninstalling and rebooting various times after various failed attempts to get this full package to work.
    - situation now is that the P1005 is simply uninstallable on the Vaio but continues to work fine on two XP machines (see below)
    - a detail: when the P1005 is plugged into any machine (Vaio or XPs) USB reports that it could run faster if it was on a USB 2.0 port
    - this seems to be a strange message on a 2010 Sony Vaio which obviously has USB 2.0 ports
    - stranger yet, the XPs are completely unaffected by this message, and print to the P1005 normally, as they always have
    The XP machines:
    - One XP machine is an old 2006 HP Pavilion
    - The other XP machine is a 2009 Acer netbook
    - both machines with their original factory installed XPs, and both regularly updated
    - the P1005 is a local printer on all machines
    - each machine is plugged into it when printing is needed and the 2 XP machines always connect and print, regardless of the USB speed message
    - the P1005 even works from the XPs via an unpowered USB physical hub with a USB mouse connected as well
    HP really seem to have gotten themselves into a rather shameful mess over their printer drivers. In the year 2010 it seems insane that plugging a printer into a computer is so stunningly complex.
    Indeed HP seems to be going rapidly backwards. The Vaio was bought to replace the old 2006 Pavilion (an excellent machine which has never put a foot wrong despite the most intensive use, and which continues to work fine if a little slowly in comparrison to the newer machines) because when we saw the HP replacement we were so repelled by its awful ergonomics, physical appearance, and ragged construction (raw metal edges round the front corners!) in comparisson to the Pavilion that we didn't need any convincing to buy the wonderfully constructed Vaio. Now we discover that a printer that works fine on XPs is unusable on Windows 7. A strange form of progress indeed.
    For many years I revered the quality of HP products. No longer I'm afraid. The Pavilion became a Vaio. I wonder what will take the place of the P1005 (I am actually being extremely restrained about the P1005 because it compares miserably with its sturdy predecessor: our sadly missed HP LaserJet 1010),

  • 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 14:35:21:895]- 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.

  • HP LaserJet P1102w - printer offline - Windows Vista ??

    We have a new HP printer LaserJet P1102w and my laptop has Windows Vista.  I am unable to print - message is always "printer offline" - can anyone assist with how to fix this issue.  I would appreciate any help - we are totally unable to use this pirnter.  Thanks!

    Hello,
    According to the information you provided, it is really difficult to diagnostic the issue. But there are several things may good for you to check:
    1. Did the printer work before? If yes, you may seeking what' the difference may lead to this offline issue.
    2. How do you connect P1102w to your PC? I suggest that you use USB connection to test
    3. If you connect it via wireless, could you double check whether the router working fine?
    4. Please make sure the printer is power on and connected to the PC successfully, otherwise "offline" is the accurate status for it.
    Hope it helps.
