Laserjet 1300 driver for Win7 problem

Plugged my Laserjet 1300 into my new computer (System 7) via USB- and Windows couldn't find the right driver for it.
I canceled Windows trying to install driver automatically, and put original CD driver disk (Serial #Q1334-60107 ver 2.0) into drive-
but couldn't get Windows to recognize printer, even after re-boots.
Since I bought printer a while ago, I checked for updated drivers online, that would be 64 bit.
I installed this one:
upd-pcl5-x64-5.4.0.11744.exe
During driver install I plugged in printer & turned it on at what i thought was right time. I see this:
"HP Universal Printing PCL 5" as printer- but it won't print.
Tried Windows 'Uninstall' feature but it doesn't show the driver, to un-install it- OR where the driver's located.
** QUESTIONS: How do I Un-Install the driver? Do I use upd-pcl5-x64-5.4.0.11744.exe OR original disk driver #Q1334-60107 ver 2.0?
What's the procedure for installing this?- I can't find anything, despite an afternoon of Googling.
Thanks.
This question was solved.

Did you follow this guide to install the print? Installing LaserJet 1300 on Windows 7
You should not need to navigate to the driver you download. Actually stick it in the trash can for now When you selecet "Add a Printer" you need to select "Add a local printer." Ignore the writing to the right, that only applies if everything is working properly. If you follow the guide at the top it should get installed properly.
No need to feel foolish and no problem at all for helping. Thats what I am here for

HP LaserJet 1300 driver cannot found

I'm currently having a network printer on a XP computer. If I select this network printer from another XP computer, I can find the driver.
However, if I select this network printer from all my window 7 computers, the driver for HP Laserjet 1300 cannot be found.
Please help.

It appears your printer is a commerical LaserJet printer.
You may get a better reponse by posting in the commercial LaserJet forums.

Laserjet 1300 Driver for Windows 7 64 Bits

Come on HP - I need the driver for Windows 7 64 bits for my HP Laserjet 1300 series.
I installed a generic driver which works OK for some applications.
But when using my Stenograph application the box that should be printed
around the text on the printed page is NOT correct: I only see the top and left side of the box shifted by 3 inches.

Thanks very much for replying to my message. I got PCL 5 from both places -- from the Windows Update list and from the HP website. If it helps, at the hp website it is at:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=238322&p...
You can get to it through www.hp.com/go/windows7, where I also got PCL6.
I have a lenovo thinkpad x300, and connect to the LJ1300 with a USB. I installed PCL5, for example, and tried to print a simple text. But my printer does not respond (the light doesn't start to blink), and when I use the Print function, it gives me a message that indicates "error, 1 document".
I will be off of my printer for a couple of weeks but want to be up and running soon. I had hoped installation of Windows 7 wouldn't be dramatic.
Thanks once again.
The links you cite take you to a page where there are links to:
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL5 x64
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 x64
HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PostScript x64
As the name suggests, those drivers are intended to substitute for the "real" driver that is specific to a given printer. They primarily are intended for use where a network administrator is responsible for a variety of HP printers on a single network. See http://h20338.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/343033-0-0-225-121.html Personally, I found the "Universal Print Driver" impossible to install and configure. Congratulations on installing it -- even if it doesn't work.
On the same page that you linked to, there is a link under the heading "Driver" that leads to "Product Support for Windows 7." That link basically leads nowhere useful for Windows 7. The conclusion that you're led to by these pages is that the only choice for Windows 7 is one of the Universal Print Drivers. This conclusion is erroneous.
I can't reconstruct how I found it, but if you go to the link in my previous post (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=120&prodSeriesId=...) you'll get to an HP support page for using HP printers with Win 7. Essentially, this page divides various HP printers into 6 categories and describes your options for each category:
HP and Windows 7 printer driver options available for the selected product
HP print driver available
Windows 7 print driver available
HP LaserJet AIO/MFP product options
Product will be supported
Selected product is not supported in Windows 7
The Laserjet 1300 is listed as a Category 3, which means that a driver specific to this model is built-in to Windows 7. This is not the Universal Print Driver. The catch is that the driver for the Laserjet 1300 isn't available in Windows 7 out-of-the-box (at least, that's what happened in my installation). It only shows up if you permit Windows Update to update the list of built-in printer drivers.
I suggest that you completely uninstall your LJ1300. Disconnect the LJ1300. Then, right click on its icon in Printers and Devices and select "Remove Device." Then click on any other printer listed and then click on "Print server properties" in the menu bar. Click on the Drivers tab and Remove the Universal Print Driver (or whatever else looks like it's related to the LJ1300. Uninstall anything to do with the Universal Print Driver from Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a program.
Now, you can take one of two approaches:
What I did was just plug the printer in and turn it on. If you've managed at some point to update the list of built-in printers, Windows should just identify and install the printer like any other USB device. Otherwise, you should get a popup asking you to give permission to search the web for a driver. Grant the permission. Windows will find the correct driver and install the printer.
Alternatively, go to Devices and Printers and start the Add Printer wizard. Tell it you're installing a local printer to LPT1. You'll get to the list of built-in printer drivers. Select HP in the left pane and scroll through the right pane. If you find the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300, cancel the process and then add the printer as in the paragraph above. If you don't find an entry for the Laserjet 1300, click the Windows Update button. After a couple of minutes, the process will be finished, and now when you look there will be the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300. Cancel the process and add the printer as in the paragraph above.
Good luck.

LaserJet software/driver issues. Print and Scan Doctor doesn't work on scanning function of MFP.

Upon using the diagnostic utility HPPSdr. exe, only the select an action "Fix Printing" shows up and not the "Fix Scanning" option. Our printer is the LaserJet 3050 connected via usb running under Windows Vista32 on a HP dv8408us laptop. The scanning driver is HP imaging 4.0.4.0. There have been numerous problems with this scanning software/driver package which have been well illustrated on the HP forums. An update is sorely needed. All that HP customers really expect when we buy a product is that we get the functionality that we paid for and that we get support for the software and hardware for a reasonable length of time, I think that 5-7 years after the final production date of the product, at least, is reasonable. In the case of the 3050, the scanning has never worked right since day 1 because the scans are too light with signatures and time stamps showing up poorly. With the pnp driver installed it it almost impossible to scan in receipts, etc. The communication software Toolbox FX is needed to use the scan button on the machine, and since there are so many problems with this package with respect to system resource usage and connectivity, we can't use it and we don't get the walk up use of the scan button that we paid for originally. As Microsoft has updated the Windows OS, HP has failed to keep pace and we lose functionality of our equipment over time. The diagnostic utilities have supposedly been updated several times and the scanning portion of the MFP still doesn't show. Surely the wide base of installation of this product could justify the expense of some engineering time for an update to the software and drivers. If HP hopes to turn itself around, a commitment needs to be made towards engineering products that really work in the environments that its customers use them, or else HP will merely be regarded as marketing company that is only concerned with selling the next thing without respect to customer retention.

VisionAiry,
Thank you for your response,
     There have been problems with the software and drivers for the LaserJet MFP/AIO machines which have been well illustrated by many users on here for several years. What is shocking is the unwillingness of HP to address these issues at an engineering and design level. This is the level in your organization that these problems need to be addressed at, not at the marketing and customer service level. The software/driver package has never really worked right ever since the 3050 - 3392 series was introduced back in 2006. The scanning drivers in the pnp drivers don't work, and never have, because of frequent communication problems. Someone never bothered to check if a blue ink signature would scan. I and several others have reported on these issues. What I have discoverd, through much trial and error, is that the full software package upon installation with only basic drivers installed using the check boxes in the menu, actually installs differently than the pnp driver. Who would have thought this? So now the machine scans OK.
     My PC really appreciates not having the ToolboxFX installed. ToolBoxFX Error messages and crashes have been well documented on here. This is an application that puts an unnecessary drain on system resources. The only problem is that now the use of the Scan button on the machine is taken away so I don't get the walk up use of the scan button that we paid for in the original design. Why is the scan button function tied to the defective ToolboxFX software?
     As far as printing goes, after carefully deleting the original print drivers, I use the PCL 5 and PCL6 UPD drivers. They work a lot better than the original print drivers ever did. But what about scanning? The scan driver on the 3050 dates all the way back to 7 2007. Scanning is an integral part of the functioning of most offices nowadays, but it is an afterthought at HP. Why would a driver, software or diagnostic package only address half of the capabilities of a machine?
     When I went on the vacation recently, I tried to use my PCL 5 and PCL 6 drivers on my relatives 2009 OfficeJet 7310 and it wouldn't work at all. I had to spend 2 hours with multiple failed attempts to install the full 7310 package on my PC. Installation problems and repeated attempts are a constant theme with HP software. The very term Universal Print Driver is misleading because it won't work on many of the HP products out there. The product listing for the UPD, I only recently discovered on here, with help, because it was so buried on the UPD information page.
     The LaserJet 3050 at $300 from Staples wasn't the most expensive printer out there, but it wasn't the least either. It is actually a pretty nice piece of hardware. I have invested over $1,500 in marked up toner since I've had this machine. HP needs to do better for us.

Windows 2008 Server and HP Color LaserJet 2605dn Driver Issue when Sharing Printer

I have a HP Color LaserJet 2605dn printer that I need to setup on a Windows 2008 server. I need the server to act as a Print server, but I have been unable to get any drivers to load other than the 64 Bit Universal drivers. Because most of the company uses XP (32 and 64 bit), I also need to load those drivers under additional drivers; however, I have been unable to load them, when I point to the INF file (any of the 10 that unzip from the driver package), it says it is not for this printer. I have even tried the generic 32 bit PS and it says the same thing. Any ideas on what I am doing incorrectly or where to get the drivers that I need?
Thanks,
Gary

Hello, I have the same problem. For the 2605 Printer is only the universal print driver available. Is seems that HP is to be lazy about making new 2008 driver.

Printing Banners and Driver Issues

I have recently updated some family tree stuff and wanted to print this off on a multi page banner. I have 2 HP printers a Photosmart 5520 and a P1102W laser printer and neither appear to give the option to print a multipage banner.
After a search it was suggested by someone that the driver for the Deskjet 6980 would work on the 5520 however I cant find it to downoad anywhere.
I have a macbook running osx 10.8 and all the option say to upgrade drivers via the software update feature but given I dont currently have a deskjet 6980 then I cant get the upgrade (even the HP site for the driver doesnt seem to have a driver to download)
Is there a way to get an updated software for any of the printers I have that would let me print a banner or get a compatible driver that will?
Seems a bit weird that the printer I had 15 years ago let me print banners but these new ones won't
Anyway, I hope someone can help
Best reagrds
Scott

Hello scm256. I understand you are having banner printing and driver upgrade issues.
In terms of banner printing, only our higher-end printers are almost guaranteed to possess that capability. I will post the specifications of both the printers, so you can review the supported paper sizes and types:
Photosmart 5520: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?sp4ts.oid=5157533&spf...
Laserjet P1102W: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c01999607
In terms of updating the drivers, you are probably experiencing that the printers you own do not possess any driver updates at this time, especially an older printer like the Deskjet 6980. Also, there likely will not be a driver update for banner printing, for any printers that do not originally support it.
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. I'm only here to help!

Laserjet 5550dn Driver issue

I'm using a MacBook running SLeopard. When I print 11 x 17 pages, only 3/4 of the page prints. I've called HP about this before and they told me the driver installed in Leopard was faulty and I needed to return to the previous one. Now, for some reason, the printer is having the same problem.
Question is simple - where can I find that old driver?

Cannot Print to PDF - Driver issues (?)

Hello,
I can't print to PDF from InDesign or for that matter any of my other non-Adobe programs.
All the file does in print in error in my PDF printer dialog box and nothing happens.
Just to clarify, exporting as an interactive PDF is not the solution I'm looking for.
I'm running Windows 7 with Acrobat Pro 8 Installed and Acrobat Reader X installed.
When I try to right click the pdf print and go to 'Adobe PDF Printing Preferences' and
set the Adobe PDF folder/output to anything that would prompt me for the file name, I can only select a port by the name of LPT1 and nothing else.
Also, odd but maybe related, I can't even set the PDF security.
Help would be delightful

The 64 bit system may be an issue. I do not remember any responses related to success with AA8 and Win 7, 64. In any case, you need to be at no less than AA 8.1. That was required on 64 bit versions of XP. I would open AA8 and start the update process. If you are offered more than 1 update, do them in order. I don't usually update this way and so am not that familiar with the screen that is offered. You may have to download the updates, in which case you have to download all appropriate updates and install them in order. They are not cummulative. If you download them, you should probably store the updates some place in case you need them again in the future. You also should only have to restart after the last update, though many of them will suggest a restart. AA 8 is at something like 8.3.2.
The updates may solve the problem. Please report back on your success with the 64 bit version of Win7. That helps us help others.

IP4500 DVD Top Printing - Colours WRONG - Driver Issue or what?

OS10.5.5 QT 7.5.5
I have a Canon IP4500, it worked well for some time printing DVD TOPS. I used Verbatim inkjet printble matte, (& sometimes gloss), white tops, the results have always been excellent. I use DISCUS to design and print my tops.
The printer was idle for a number of weeks when I ran out of ink, and had to wait for replacements.
Since then; when printing DVD tops the colours have been wrong, "red shifted". Dark blue ("Blueberry") prints as "lilac". Green grass printed with a "straw" colour. And apart from NOT looking as CRISP as they have in the past, and the colours being off, the tops seem OK.
I have run all the supplied maintainence programmes that come with the IP4500, noozle clean etc.
I have replaced the ink cartridges with fresh ones.
It was suggested to be by the people at Discus that I download the latest Canon driver for my IP4500 and install it. I have done this. (ip4500sosx693ej7.dmg). Checking through System Preferences/Print & Fax/Options & Supplies/General - Driver Version is listed as 6.9.3, so I assume it's installed properly.
I did a test DVD top print after all that and got the same result, Blueberry as Lilac. I then tried printing the DVD top design on a sheet of white A4 and it looked OK, at least the grass was greener.
So, downloaded and installed lastest driver, (I assume), cleaned the printer noozle and printed a test page which looks fine, which indicates the noozle is clean. Which makes me think the driver didn't install properly. Maybe.
So can anyone suggest anything else I could try? I'm really at a loss.
Ta.

Hello Jay,
I have never used Discus (I only use Canon's CD-LabelPrint) but reading through your post it does sound like something is amiss with the driver, although the printing okay on plain A4 throws a spanner in the works for that theory.
Anyway, if you wanted to try removing all the Canon driver files and then installing just the v6.93 driver again, it may prove to be the answer?
The iP4500 files will be located in HD > Library > Printers > Canon > BJPrinter. You can trash all of these files and run the v6.93 installer again. Note that if you ever need a different Canon driver then you can download it from Canon rather than rely on the Meg's worth of outdated printer drivers in this folder...

I suggest organising this forum by printer supplier for driver issues

Here's a suggestion for the Moderators.
I suggest organising this forum by printer supplier.
A lot of the questions in here are supplier - specific. It would be nifty to be able to either
a). check out general Leopard issues with wireless, set-up, sharing, or
b). go straight to the latest scoop on the issues with Lexmark drivers (or HP, or Brother, or Canon etc.)
Well, why not?

Just a reminder folks, that this board is meant for feedback on the forum itself. Any discussion of Verizon products or services can be posted on the appropriate boards. Thanks!

Printing free page hp laserjet 1300

first page is ok. but second page is free.. third and other pages or normally..
why the printer prints every second page free ?
How can we cancel it. ?

Hi donnabaird,
Unfortunately this printer is only USB capable. It was not built to be wireless. You would need a wireless printer to print wirelessly. I hope this helps.

I have an HP Laserjet 1300 printer that I would like to connect with my desktop. This printer still works. Keeping it would save me money. Can anyone give me the link to the Laserjet 1300 software/driver for Windows 7 64-bit?
Thanks in advance!
