Hp photosmart 7150, missing .INF driver

The problem is I can not get .INF driver file to allow my Window 7 Professional computer to use the printer on my family already existing XP network with the printer hooked up to the XP based host computer.
Things to note:
the printer already appears on my network on my win7 pro.
tried installing the setup software with zero success because it expects me to connect the printer directly to the my computer
other computer can print with it just fine.
could someone provide a link to download the .INF driver and other way to fix it.

I got it to work finally this is what I did. I did as you suggest on trying to select the printer on network and the windows update was not working and now it is working for it. Software has a mind of its own now of days. Something was maybe blocking it from updating in the past when I was working on it. Weird

    missing *.inf driver for 2605dtn and windows 7 64 bit
    I just piurchased a new HP laptop with windows 7 64 bit installed.  I do not have any windows 7 disks.
    Where do I obtain the necessary drivers for this printer?

    HI RandyJohnson,
    You do not need to download drivers for this product. Print drivers for your product are available within the Windows 7 operating system. Use Devices and Printers, formerly known as the Add Printer Wizard, to obtain the Windows 7 update. For more information,  go to Install the Printer Driver through the Windows 7 Operating System (c02536257) (in English).

  • Error -9672 - HP PHotosmart 7150

    About 2 weeks ago, I reinstalled Tiger on my iMac (to get the X11 subsystem for Inkscape). After that, I can no longer print to my HP Photosmart 7150 printer. I reinstalled Tiger from the system disks, and then applied the Combo update to get me back to 10.4.11.
    When I try to add the printer, it defaults to HP Inkjet 3.3 for the driver. If I try and select the driver (which I have installed from HP's web site, twice and from the Tiger system disks), it doesn't show up in the HP list (just network printers do). The HP printer utility can "see" the printer, but Tiger can't?
    No matter what I do to add it, I get Error -9672.
    Did X11 break printing? Or am I missing something in the reinstall process?

    Might try an earlier fix, amended to your printer though... seems hp has had this -9672 error plenty of times, generally an updated driver fixes it... if all the old parts get removed...

  • IMac printing problem with HP Photosmart 7150

    I've just bought a 27 inch iMac and I'm having problems printing out of iPhoto 9. I select for eg, 4 X photos per page and it prints about 10% of the page before spitting it out. I've downloaded the latest driver for my HP Photosmart 7150 printer (Gutenprint v5.2.5) but still no good.
    The print monitor window always says it is printing Page 1 7%. Weird.
    Any ideas?? Thanks in advance.
    Dan

    I've got the same problem on my MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard and Gutenprint 5.2.5 when printing on the 7150 - it prints about 10% (and skewed at that) and spits out the page. This occurs when printing from any app.
    I am only able to print in draft mode which is not suitable for anything I need to do.
    I realize this printer is no longer officially supported, but any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Mike.

  • Photosmart 7150 Scan to My Apple Laptop Not Working

    I can print fine.  (Have latest OSX Yosemite update on my lap top).  Can't scan to my lap top.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi @Noose ,
    I see that you can print, but you can't scan from Yosemite. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Please check the model number for your printer. As far as I can see the Photosmart 7150 doesn't have scanning functionality.
    Do you maybe have the Photosmart 7510?  How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    If your model has a scanner, please try the following steps.
    I would do a hard reset.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
    Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name.
    If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • Hp photosmart 7150 only prints black and white with mac

    My hp photosmart 7150 only prints black and white with mac.  I have tried installing and uninstalling, installing drivers, but no change.

    Hi,
    You did not mentioned your Mac OS X version, however I assume you have one of the latest versions.
    The Photosmart 7150 is not supported on Mac OS X v10.6, v10.7, v10.8 or v10.9 and therefore it is more than likely that there are no drivers for your OS and the used Generic Driver only provide B&W printing.
    Although it is not officially supported you may check 3rd party solutions such as the 3rd party HP-IJS print drivers which list your printer as supported.
    Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads, then click the plus sign under Printers & Scanners, click the Use drop down and click on Select Printer Software.
    Search for your printer model form the list and select the driver, I believe that may work:
    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/macosx/hpijs
    Although it only list up to 10.8 (Mountain Lion) it should also work on Mavericks from my experience.
    Hope that may help,

  • Maverick and Photosmart 7150 printer problems

    Updated to Maverick os x and now my hp photosmart 7150 printer won't work .. can I update .. and if so how do I update my printer driver for maverick?

    Hello
    I believe the HP Photosmart 7150 was released back around 2002.    
    Which version of OSX did you upgrade from ?   Were you running previous OS X 10.6 when you upgraded to new 10.9 ?
    Unfortunately, the HP Photosmart 7150 has not been supported for some time now with the last few releases of OS X.

  • Where's my missing hard drive space?

    I posted earlier about this, it may be a bit off topic but if anyone can offer a clue, I would appreciate it.
    I got my win 7 upgrade and was waiting until vista started giving me headaches or the win7 service pack1 came out to upgrade...vista got me to upgrade today and I have to admit it was much less painful than i anticipated.
    My question is about the missing hard drive space on my Idea center K230 on the box and on the side of the comp it claims a 640 HD (it claims in small print that up to 18gb may be used for the service partition) I questioned this when i first got it and even after deleting all the preloaded crap it was still saying 540 available out of 580GB....then I read that Lenovo has a huge partition for backup. So when I do my upgrade to win 7- 64 bit, I do a clean install and delete the smaller partition and reformat and expand the larger but before installing the new OS it says I have 596 available, so where the hell is the other 44GB of hard drive...did Lenovo rip us off and put 600GB hard drives in the K230's or is there a hidden partition still left that I cant find?
    I am running everything off of my 596GB C: drive, I have my virus stuff and video card extras loaded, everything from the upgrade and 21 available patches and new drivers for most of my stuff....right now I am at at 575gb available and if i can ever find a printer driver that works I will create a backup point or disc from there, whatever win 7 allows. I never wanted the Lenovo one button back up and thought it was stupid to put a big glowing button on the keyboard that wipes your system back to when it came out of the box...I had nightmares of someone getting curious and going "what does this button do?"
    .I notice I have a program files folder and a program files (x86) folder with a bunch of redundant files. what's the deal with this is Lenovo still hiding a backup program (maybe in that hidden partition?)  that fills my hard drive twice as fast or is there a purpose for the file copies?
    Any info on the above questions would be appreciated, and for those of you just looking for upgrade info I have good news, when you finally get your win7 upgrade disc it is the easiest windows installation ever, almost copmpletely automated, and very fast. So far the only sticking point is finding a printer driver, but I have 3 printers i can try, maybe one is supported.

    Hi wise2u!
    You can read all the details about how storage manufacturers use multiples of 1000 to measure disk space, and Windows reports it in multiples of 1024, and there is some overhead for Windows, or you can just use this rule of thumb from wikipedia:
    A general rule of thumb to quickly convert the manufacturer's hard disk capacity to the standard Microsoft Windows formatted capacity is 0.93*capacity of HDD from manufacturer for HDDs less than a terabyte and 0.91*capacity of HDD from manufacturer for HDDs equal to or greater than 1 terabyte.
    0.93 * 640GB = 595GB, which is about what you're seeing.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    Maybe it would have been a better idea to confirm that iTunes is supported in Windows 8 before buying a computer with that Operating System.
    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.

  • Photosmart 7150 - Prints left side of page only

    I have used my Photosmart 7150 for years. All of a sudden, prior to printing I get a "PAPER SIZE MISMATCH" message telling me to pull the photo slider out. The photo slider is all the way out. I press the "RESUME" button, and only the left side of the page prints. Does anyone know how to correct this?

    There may be more than one issue here. The photo tray issue may contribute to both issues. Try this link:

  • Missing print driver when adding rendezvous printer

    Hello all, hopefully you smart people can help me.
    The new iMac (10.4.9) is glorious and printing on the new HP Photosmart D5069 via USB, no problems. I want to share the printer with two laptops (an iBook and Powerbook, both running 10.3.9). I enabled sharing.
    When I go to add the printer on the laptops, under Rendezvous printing it sees the printer at the iMac (@ computer). I add it, but then I need the print driver.
    So I stepped back and installed the HP software disc on the laptops to get the print driver on there. I installed it via USB. I can print from a laptop to the printer via USB.
    However, when I return the printer to its USB connection on the iMac, and then proceed to add the shared printer via Rendezvous on the laptops, I still can't find the printer driver. Under Printer Model/HP there is no Photosmart D5xxx model. Using the generic print driver leads to no printing via Rendezvous (it shows up in the queue on the iMac, but no printing occurs).
    So how do I add the correct print driver? It must be on my hard drive, since I can USB print, but I can't reveal its presence to Rendezvous.
    As an added note, I thought Rendezvous was supposed to make it EASY. If you have to add the print driver manually, I'm not sure how that helps using Rendezvous.
    Thanks

    Repair permissions (Disk Utility) after any HP driver install. Then restart the computer and try Adding the printer.
    For troubleshooting, try using the HP Photosmart P1100 Gimp-Print driver included in OS X. If you don't see that either, you may need to update your laptops with Gutenprint, the new name for Gimp-Print drivers:

  • GPP - Missing Mapped Drives

    Domain Functional Level: Windows Server 2003
    Domain Controllers: Windows Server 2012 R2
    Workstations: Windows 7 PRO, x86
    I'm mapping network shares for my users using GPP, running under User Logon, and Item Level Targeting.  The missing network drives are Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 file servers.  The network drives that DO map are Windows Server 2012 R2 file servers. 
    When I log in as a test user (copied from an offending user), I can browse to the 2003 shares via UNC, and I am capable of manually mapping the drives are well.  However, when I log off and log back in, the drives are missing again
    for the 2003 shares.  Furthermore, I'm mapping user's home folders via Profile tab in their user accounts, and that's going to the same 2003 share as well.  That isn't mapping either. 
    I believe that it was working fine last week, but then SOMETHING must have changed.  I'm unsure of what though.   Perhaps someone can shed some light into this?

    > When I manually a) selected all mapped drives, b) disconnected them, c)

    Not to my knowledge - they SHOULD be present again without gpupdate. The
    log I mentioned above might be helpful.

  • G500 laptop upgraded to windows 8.1 now have a message missing a driver

    My G500 laptop just upgraded to Windows 8.1 and now my alert action center message tray says I am missing a driver?
    I can’t find anything missing? I looked through all the devices 5 times but nothing is marked with a question mark or similar?
    Any thoughts?

    Hi deagonslair2013
    What you describe has been happening since the preview, Because all devices on a network talk to each other the driver error may not be on your G500 but on another device on the network.
    For instance: I own a G700 & G505, I connected a tablet to the G505 & it installed the device but could not find any drivers for that device, Since then my G700 has been showing a driver missing although all devices are working fine on the G700 in device manager.
    If you have any other laptops or desktops on your network with device drivers missing disable those devices & re-run the hardware scan on your G500 & see if that is the cause.
    Edit What version of Lenovo solution center do you have installed, It should be version 2.3.002.
    If your version has a .18 in the string its out of date & you need to update to the above version.
    Hope that helps!
    And welcome to the forum.
