  • Problem installing printer on windows 7 enterprise machine

    Hi
    I have HP Color LaserJet CP2025DN printer which i'm trying to install on my windows 7 machine. I have search on HP site where I was told that I can get the driver from windows update but when I run the windows update I cant seem to find cp2025dn or cp2020
    printer from list.
    Can someone please help me installing this printer.
    When I go into my printer and device I see this icon.
    My printer usb info
    USB\VID_03F0&PID_5417&REV_0100

    Hi,
    Since all drivers in Windows update are produced from manufacturer and then after passing the Windows Logo Program testing, then they can be distribute onto update, that should be little delayed. I
    suggest we download the latest driver applied to Windows 7 from manufacturer site.
    Before installing the driver, is suggest you open Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features and delete the printer driver that is already installed.
    I'm seeing a lot of information about the HP LaserJet CP2025dn not working properly with Windows 7.
    I suggest contacting HP for the drivers support for Windows 7, or you can install the driver with Vista compatible mode for test:
    1. Insert the installation media, right click on the DVD drive icon and choose Open
    2. In the open folder, right click the program setup.exe file and click the Properties option.
    3. Select the Compatibility tab.
    4. Select the Run This Program in Compatibility Mode option.
    5. From the drop-down list, choose the operating system you ran before upgrading to Vista.
    6. If necessary, select the option to run the program as an administration.
    7. Click OK.
    Now, right click on Setup.exe and choose Run as administrator to install it again.
    Furthermore, you can try to use Windows XP mode to use these printer.
    Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7

    I also would like to suggest you contact HP directly to consult the issue. In this way, your issue can be fixed efficiently.
    Hope it helps.

  • Can't install printer on Windows 8.1 with downloaded drivers

    Strange problem. I cannot install a printer to a windows 8.1 tablet using either downloaded drivers specific to this printer or with universal drivers.  The printer installation hangs after I enter the port, and it hangs at "installing printer" Now if I use auto detect, it installs without a problem.  The problem with that is we have specific settings that need to be set that are not available with the native detected drivers. It acts like it will install, because if I refresh the screen on devices and printers, it shows.   If I then go to printer properties, in the case of the universal drivers, it will not find the printer.  It gives the universal drivers  printer search page. I have admin privledgesI am installing via remote desktop because they are at remote locations.I have the firewall disabled.Is there something I am missing? I did use pnputil -a *.inf   

    Hey Andrade2691,
    Please refer this kb file and try troubleshooting update installation issue for Windows 8:

  • Printing to Windows HP Color Laserjet 1500L

    I have just set up my macbook to print to my Lexmark E232 over my widows network. It works great.
    So I followed a similar approach for my HP Color Lasejet 1500L. However when I get to the final step where you choose the actual printer Model (after slecting HP) I find the HP Color Laserjet 1500L isnt listed. I have tried some of the other ones but nothing prints.All the steps windows printing-network neiborhood-etc are fine.
    Note I have insalled the driver etc for the HP Color Laserjet 1500L to work via USB and this works no probs.
    I tried other in the drop down menu but couldnt find out where the driver for the Hp 1500 was located.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    To use the OS X standard network protocols (Windows/IP printing), you must have either a postscript printer (the driver in that case is just a ppd for the OS X postscript output) OR, a driver designed to work with CUPS (CUPS driver). HP doesn't provide CUPS drivers for OS X (who knows why, since they do for linux).
    You need to install foomatic and ESP ghostscript:
    http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/foomatic/
    then, install the foo2oak driver:

  • Installing printer in Windows Vista on Mac

    I typically don't use the Window's side of my Macbook but I have one piece of software that must run on Windows. I have been trying to install a printer on here but am not having any luck. Seems like it would be easy and I have actually installed it, however, it won't print. The document goes to the print que and no errors come up, but the document never prints and never leaves the que. I have tried this wirelessly and with a USB cable connecting the printer, but nothing seems to work. I am using VMWare Fusion and Windows Vista. Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?? Thanks in advance for your help.

    I am using VMWare Fusion

  • Hp laserjet 1022 windows 7 (64 bit) won't install printer, what can i do?

    1. HP LaserJet 1022 Printer 
    2. Windows 7 64-bit
    3. No Error Message
    4. The only changes made to the system are security upgrades from Windows Updater. This is a new computer and the old one was running XP. 
    I have tried removing the printer, downloading newer software (lj1020-HB-pnp-WIN64-en) and trying to install it, adding the printer through windows and still the printer will not work. The cd version will run until it asks you to plug in the printer and then nothing happens. I even tried leaving it running overnight to see if it would find it and install, but nothing happened. This printer is a workhorse for me and I would like to keep it running, any suggestions on getting this printer recognized and running again?

  • Networking color laserjet 3800 printer with Windows 7 OS

    I have a color laserjet 3800 that is networked in an office of 5 computers using Windows XP pro OS.  I just purchased a HP pavilion Slimline Windows 7 64 bit OS computer.  The networking and printer networking set up was a breeze until it came to connecting the 3800.  I have downloaded the PCL 5, 6 and universal drivers.  When I go to add printer as a network printer and choose the 3800 it gives an error of not being able to find a driver.  I tried to manually find the driver but it does not find a match in PCL 5, 6 or universal driver.  The link below clearly shows the 3800 to be compatible with windows 7, but I cannot get it work.
    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=HP%20Col...
    The network absolutely sees the printer and lets it be chosen but does not let it get installed on the windows 7 machine.
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Same Problem here. Does no one have a solution?

  • Unable to install the scanner on the HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw in windows 7 64 bit

    HI 
    am unable to install   the scanner on the  HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP M276nw Drivers in windows 7 64 bit  , after runing the setup ,the printer will finshing the installation process and and it will show that the HP Scan and HP fax failed. 

    Hi @Chembo ,
    I see you're experiencing issues installing the printer software. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.
    I would disable all the start up programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software and any Real Time Scanning in the Antivirus Software also, to see if that is causing the issue. How to use MSCONFIG . Click on the Startup tab and click Disable all, Then click the Services tab and check Hide All Microsoft Services.
    Restart the computer.
    Disconnect the USB cable from the printer.
    Run the uninstall from the CD.
    Go start, computer, right click on the CD for the printer, left click open in a new window, double click on uninstall.
    Make sure that the print spooler service is running.
    Right-click Print Spooler, and then click Properties.
    If the Startup type is set to Manual or Disabled, click the drop-down list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.
    Under Service status, click Stop and then Start, and then click OK.
    Run the installation again and don't connect the cable until prompted.
    Test the printer.
    Then you will have to go back and enable the Startup programs, Microsoft Services and turn the Antivirus Software back on again.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • 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.

  • Windows 7: Hp LaserJet 5100 PCL6 slow network printing.

    Hello, I'm trying to setup Hp LaserJet 5100 PCL6 that is connected to a WinXP SP2 machine as my Windows 7 x64 default LAN printer. Steps I've done so far:
    1. Downloaded HP UNC 5.0.3.
    2. Installed it.
    3. Tried printing test page, notepad text with no results.
    4. In UNC add printer dialog, selected my printer and set test feature to minimal.
    5. Tried printing test page. Printer responded and printed an error message, about an unsupported kernel command.
    6. Went to Start-devices and printers-add printer, local, LPT_1, Search Driver in Windows Update, Hp LaserJet 5100 PCL6, finish.
    7. Accessed "Local Printer" properties, went to Ports selected \\%winxppc%\HP_5000 HP_UNC port.
    8. Printed test page, notepad text, AutoCad 2011 Plot. Tested A4 and A3 formats, everything printed fine.
    The problem is when trying to print a large file ~25-50 Mbytes it takes from 10 to 20 minutes to print, whereas the same file sent from the other WinXp machine prints much much faster.
    So, any possible solutions?

    BUMP!

  • Trouble installing shared printer on windows 7 64 bit

    hey guys
    i recently got a IBM thinkpad with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    we have a HP Laserjet 3015 thats shared on windows xp profesional computer.  i am having trouble installing it on my comuter. if i connect the printer to my computer via USB, windows finds the drivers and it works.
    The problem is when ever i try and insatll it over the network it does not work. i can search and find which computer it is attached to and see it in the shared printer list, but when i ever i try to connect to it says connecting>>searching windows update>>cant find drivers. it gives me the option of searching for the drivers to install. i have downloaded the drivers thats on the HP site but they dont help. when ever i select them in the manual it comes with an error saying driver not found then gives u the option of installing it your self. when u select the driver it says windows can not locate a suitable driver.
    how can i get around this ??

    Try the following:  On the Windows 7 computer go to the Devices and Printers folder, Add a Printer, Local Printer, Create a new port, Local port, Next, \\xpcomputername\lj3015 (where you put in the actual share name of the computer and printer), OK, Windows Update (and wait for the list to repopulate), HP Laserjet 3015 PCL5,  Next, Next.
