PSC 2175 not printing with Windows XP

Hello,
This printer has worked great since the first day with the setup below, but I cant figure this out.
Setup
Connection using USB
O/S windows XP sp3
System is connect to ATEn KVM Switch USB.
windows share with other windows machines.
Issue
The printer goes to print, but feed the paper instead. All computer on the my home network do the same with Windows xp, except windows vista which print. The printer is shared through windows xp. The testing software from Hp is able to print and it comes out find. The alignment test comes out fine, but thats it. It seem the drivers right, but I DON'T KNOW!!!
Solution tried.
Reinstall the drivers from HP. download, uninstalled the printer software, restarted windows xp, installed the new download drivers. BUT STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. Confusing issue. The Mac Mini with OS 10, prints out of it. no problem. both the Mac Mini and Windows XP box are plug in the Kvm switch. It sound like a driver problem, but they have just been reinstsalled on the windows machine. The vista laptop uses the windows xp box to use the printer.
Its a great little printer, need help in understanding this problem. By the way Mac Mini print out great on it.
signed confused, but hopefull

The hp status icon in th status bar says "Your hp psc 2170 series is ready.", The test page acts as if everything is fine, but the printer select the page and feeds correctly, the printer heads passes twice on the top of the page, then the page is feed through without printing anything.
I tried the hp Services " Open the hp toolbox" the following has been tested and work .
Calibrate the device Ok
clean the printer Cartridge not tested
Print a test page ok
Print a Diagnostic page ok
All printing out the usb, but the test page of windows does as mentioned above.
Just making sure, both the Mac and windows box are setup on the kvm switch and have been like that for over a year. The usb that the printer is connect to is the kvm switch, which is switch over to the active system. I really seem like a driver problem.
Appreciate any insights.

Printing on HP PSC 1200 not working through WIN XP

Hi! I have a windows PC which I have connected to an HP PSC 1200 printer. My other laptops can connect perfectly to the printer and print. I set up my Mac according to the instructions but I cannot print. In windows the que name is "Remote Downlevel Print" and it is immediately giving an error. I called apple care because my exact model wasn't there so they gave me a printer which used its same driver. I can print when I connect the printer to my USB on my MacBook Pro but it does not work through Windows. If anyone could provide me with some help that would be great. Thanks.

I have a similar problem-Canon Pixma ip4000 wired to Dell desktop running Win 98 2nd ed.---- Desktop is wired to Netgear. --- I can access internet with mac book pro but not print-I could print wirelessly with Toshiba laptop running Win xp-called apple help and spent 2 hours trying to fix but we both gave up-I wonder if I could run a cable from the printer to the netgear---unfortunately no USB interface on the netgear router --so I would have to find a cable that is either USB or parallel on one side and eithernet on the other-does anyone know if this world work? If not I could buy a printer router that just takes care of the printer wirelessly-anyone know of a good one?

Hp envy 4500 will not print from windows 8. Thinks it prints, but it doesn't.

Am trying to print from my Toshiba laptop running Windows 8 to my HP Envy 4500 wirelessly. Works fine from my ipad, works fine from my desktop and laptop running Windows 7. I have uninstalled and re-installed the printer driver 5 times. Printer is recognized, has an IP addrress, and will print an internal test page. When I print to it from my Windows 8 machine, the file goes in the queue, gets a port, and then disappears as if it was printed. Nothing prints. Please help, this is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO frustrating.

HP Laserjet pro mfp m125nw not printing on windows 7

I have attempting to install this printer on my Windows 7 PC both as a wireless printer and as a straight USB connection .
with wireless turned off.
Although the implementation always appears to execute successfully I am not able to print from the PC.
No errors are displayed and when doing a test print the print output appears for a split second in the printer's print queue and almost immediately is deleted and disappears.
I have turned the firewalls off (Norton 360 and Windows Defender) while doing all this but still no success.
I have run a variety of printer diagnostics (Windows Fixit, HP Print and Scan Doctor) and they all indicate everything is setup correctly.
I then attempted to install on a 2nd PC with Windows 8. This successfully installed 1st time and have now installed both as a wireless networked printer and as a USB standalone connection and everything works fine without any problems.
I don't understand why I can't successfully install on my PC with Windows 7 - in particular as a standalone USB connection.
Any ideas where I'm going wrong?

Hi @DavidJS ,
I see that you are experiencing issues printing from the Windows 7 computer over a wireless connection and USB connection, but the Windows 8 computer is working. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
Clear the Spool folder and restart the Print Spooler. How to Clear Current Print Queue In Windows Vista & Windows 7.
Try printing again.
Try these steps for printing over the wireless network.
I would power cycle everything.
Turn the printer and computer off.
Disconnect the power cable on the router for 10 seconds, then reconnect the power cable again.
Turn the computer on, then the printer.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Print out a configuration page to find out what the printer's IPv4 address is.
Check the port showing on the computer, to make sure it matches.
From Devices and Printers, right click the printer and left click Printer Properties, select the Ports tab.
Click on configure port to view the IP address.
If the IP address doesn't match then create a new port with the new IP address.
Close the configure port window.
Click Add Port, select Standard TCP/IP Port, then select New Port and follow the wizard.
Type in the proper IP address for the printer.
Make sure the printer is online.
Test the printer.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a great day!
Thank You.

HP 3650 deskjet will not print in Windows 7

New pc w/ Windows 7. My HP deskjet 3650 will not print PDF, Quicken, Website selections, etc.
HELP!

Did you install the driver as described here? Will the printer print a Windows test page or a file from Notepad? Do print jobs remain in the print queue? Are there any error messages?
Running the diagnostics at http://www/hp.com/go/tools may help resolve the issue.

All or parts of character not printing in Windows 8

HP DeskJet 6840 printer worked fine under Windows 7 but now on Windows 8, in some instances, parts of the first character in a line are missing and occasionally further missing characters across some lines. In some cases, the top part of characters is missing and in some cases the last character in a line is missing part or all of itself. The printer is connected to my LAN via cable (not wirelessly).
The hardware test page prints just fine (tells me there is ink and the jets are clean) but the Windows Printer Test Page and other programs (Word, Excel, etc.) have this sporatic problem. When printing to my other printer HP 6700 OfficeJet (from the same computer), I can print fine. The 6700 is connected wirelessly.
I have downloaded, removed, reinstalled the latest HP driver and all Windows updates are installed. I'm ready to sell the printer on eBay and buy something else but though someone on this forum could offer suggestions.
thank you in advance,
Bob

Hi rcowen, Sorry to hear that you are having issue's with getting your printer to function properly with windows 8. I have done some research and I have noticed that this model of printer is not supported with Windows 8. Here is a document that shows the minimum system requirements. http://goo.gl/IMWBER
What you can try to do is use the generic print driver from within windows 8. If you go to the add a printer option with in windows 8 and select the Deskjet 990c print driver or the Deskjet 550c print driver and then connect your printer, this may resolve your issue. I can not guarantee that this will work but I have had it prove to be successful for me in the past.
One other option is, seeing that you have an HP printer, you may very well qualify for the "Trade In Trade Up" program that HP provides. All you would need to do is call HP at 1-800-474-6836 and inquire about this option. You will be asked for your serial number that is located on the back of your printer on a sticker that is near a bar code.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to write back and I will be more than happy to assist you.
Thank you

Excel 2013 Border Lines not printing with Windows 8

Hi. I have a problem with Excel files not printing the border lines of the cells in documents.
There are 3 laptops with Windows 8 64bit in our company now using Office 2013. Only today did they mention to me that the borders from only those Laptops are not printing. In the PrintPreview it shows them, but they dont print. From my work PC that's using
Windows 7 64bit and Office 2013 they do print.
I'fe printed the a PDF printer on thier PC's but it also prints without the borders. These files are automatically created in excel format by the software our comapany uses, every user recives he's file via email and can then print it or send it to customers.
The software does not display the title boxes correctly when using the default windows 8 theme (you cant see what you are typing, the background is black and the text aswell). To get past this we select High Contrast theme (thers no CLASSIC theme in windows
8) and then tweak the settings a bit to get it as close to classic as possible.
Now it seems like when you use high contrast as a theme Excel does not print broders, I came across this on the internet whit other people also having this problem. Thers no solution that I found that I can implement on those three laptops. I cant change
the theme back if they wont be able to read what they type, and I dont know how to get the borders to print in every excel file they get in the future without having them to go through a whole process of changing settings everytime they need to print.

Hi,
If you use Excel program to create a file, then print it, Does this issue still persist?
Also what happens if you change the borders style within Excel? for example, change the border line to thick.
Also it seems that a similar topic has been discussed here:

H-P Laserjet 4L printer will not print with Windows 7 operating system. Need help

I have an H-P Laserjet 4L printer that worked fine with a Dell PC and Windows XP. But, it no longer worked when the PC was updated to Windows7. I was advised to buy an adapter that would accept the H-P plug and connect to the PC by means of a USB port. I did that, but the H-P still will not print. Anyone know what to do about this problem?

Hi everyone.
Today I bought new printer. I wanted instal this printer on my old pc with Win xp but during installation appears window with warning " software for this device: "printer" has not passed compatibility testing with windows xp system".

I have installed printer on my laptops with Win 7 and Win 8.1 and everything is fine.
Sorry for my grammatical mistakes. I have to translate this from polish
I hope someone can help me solve this issue. A lost all day to find any solutions ;/

Hi @Karol_szc ,
I see that you are experiencing issues installing the printer on the Windows XP computer. I would like to help you out with this issue today.
I have provided a document to check your system to make sure if does meet the system requirements.

Check your version of .Netframeworks. How to Check Which Version of Microsoft .NET Framework is Installed in Windows?
Run the Windows updates to get the most up to date one installed.
What version of Internet Explorer are you using?
IE is integrated into Windows and is part of the Windows updates.
I suspect you need IE 7 at least. I believe this is because HP software piggy backs from Internet Explorer.
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Happy New Years!

Officejet pro 8000 wireless will not print from windows photo viewer. all other diagnostics ok.

OS is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64. All functions and printing are ok with this unit, excepting for printing through Windows Photo Viewer. Have latest software, drivers, etc., and all HP software and hardware diagnostic tools check out ok.
Checked Windows event log, and get Event 350, PrintService - Document failed to print and was deleted because of corruption in the spooled file. The associated driver is: . Try printing the document again.
There is no additional info on this event listed in the Microsoft TechNet Events and Errors Message Reporting Center
When this happens, all of the lights on the printer flash very rapidly.
To correct, I clear the queue through Explorer, Troubleshoot, and unplug printer to reset.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

FYI, I got this to work by treating my printer as a wired printer, even though it allegedly has wireless functionality. Luckily, my ohter devices can print to it wirelessly. At least I don't need to replace my printer just yet...

HP 1200 not printing pdfs/uses default fonts in Word docs

Happy Birthday USA!
Last week I loaded 10.4.10 to Mac mini and eversince I have not been able to print pdfs from Adobe Reader or print desired fonts from Word.
(I have overcome default to US letter problem in Word)
I have loaded latest drivers from HP site/ installed original drivers from HP disk but these appear to be for OSX rather than 10.4.10.
Any suggestions?

First of all I would try running Repair Disk Permissions. This can help with printing issues, especially after updates.
If you are able to print the same pdf's from Preview that you cannot from Acrobat, then you could try deleting its plist with it closed. If that doesn't help then try deleting and reinstalling Reader.
Re Word, are you getting Courier substitution for the fonts that are not printing or is the line blank where the text should be?

CANNOT PRINTING FROM WINDOWS 7 TO MY PHOTOSMART c7180 ALL-IN-ONE (I CAN SEE MESSAGES IN QUEUE)?

Hi,
I think you need to remove the queue. Please try:
    hold down the Windows key and press R.
    from the Run window, type services.msc and hit enter.
    if the machine asks for Admin you have to accept this,
    look down to the print spooler service, right click it and select properties
    click on the Stop button,
    browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\printers
    delete the job inside this folder
    reboot the machine

Deskjet 6980 will not print with Windows 7

This printer worked fine until a recently. Now I cannot print from Windows 7 desktop computer. The printer shows that it is offline. The report page from the printer tells me everything is connected and OK. I can print from my lap with XP Home Edition with no problems. I followed several ideas on this forum and other web sites but none of them worked. If I restart the spooler, I get Error - Printing and nothing else. I ran the Windows 7 troubleshooter but it said it can't fix the problem. I can open the printer web page and everything looks OK. I installed Windows 7 in November and it has been printing OK until now. Windows update says everything is up to date. I did install the patch mentioned here. Any ideas?

Did you delete the printer in Devices and Printers and re-add it?
