Lost the driver to my hp photosmart plus b209a when up grade for windows 7 was done installing

Well a few days ago my computer did an automatic upload for windows 7...Now I have no driver for my HP Photosmart Plus B209a all-in-one printer...I lost the disk like a year ago...So I went on HP and downloaded the full driver and installed it..well I should say I tried to install it..I keep getting to the install point and it gets to the 6th step out of 8 and then fails it! I have tried to uninstall and reinstall it...I have tried the HP Dr..I have done everything it tells me to do with the same result! I am so very frustrated right now...Can someone please help me...

Hi kellywammes1,
I would like to help you with your installation problem. When you say it fails on step 6, does it give you an error message? What is the step 6 that it is failing on?
If you could please send me a screen shot of the failing point.
Let me know,
Thank you,
I worked on behalf of HP.

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Connecting HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m to a new WiFi connection without attaching the printer cable

Hi All,
I have recently changed my ISP and so new WiFi network has been set up at home.
Now I want my printer (HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m) to connect to the new network.
Is there a way I do this without having to attach a printer cable between my laptop and the printer?
Thanks

Yes, on the front of the printer: Setup > Wireless > Restore Defaults.
Now on your computer, in the HP folder, run the Printer Setup and Software to add the printer to your new network.

Photosmart plus b209a-m with osx 10.8.4 not recognize wireless

I had photosmart plus b209a printer with my macbook pro. It has wireless, but I have no idea how to set up it? I didn't install the cd, because I found out I just plug in the usb with my macbook pro will print it. Do I need to install cd first, but I lost it long time ago. Where I can get it or download it. I did search the driver for this printer in hp.com, but it didn't show any thing for me to download, can I set up wireless without install cd? Thanks.

Photosmart Plus B209a won't communicate with my computer

I have a Photosmart Plus B209a, and I run 4 different laptops with a wireless connection They run Windows Vista, and Windows 7, and I can not print either. The Wireless hub was recently changed, but prior to that I could not print. I get an error message when trying to reinstall the printer software from Windows that states that the USB device is not recognized AND SHOULD BE REPLACED .I bought a brand new USB cord for the printer from HP, and it still doesn't work. I was on the phone with HP for an hour and a half and they had control of my laptop and the issue is still not resolved, she said it must be my laptops problem and then transferred me to an online pay for help service that was a minimum charge of $65. All I know is I have had problems with this happening from the start, it seems every time there is a software upgrade, I have to reconnect to the printer, and now WINDOWS is not even recognizing the device...I will be interested in any answers you receive. Thanks.

You can download the drivers on the Samsung website. Go here and click "Software", under the Download Center. This will be the driver you need for Windows Vista.

How Do I Share a Photosmart Plus B209a Between Windows 7 and Windows 8 Computers?

I have a Photosmart Plus B209a I have been using with a pair of Windows 7 laptops. I use the HP Solution Center (blue icon) to interface with it.
I recently bought an HP Windows 8.1 laptop. The Solution Center doesn't work on it. The HP printer support site says I need to uninstall the Windows 7 Solution Center (blue icon) and replace it with the Windows 8 (gray icon) version.
Will this make my printer only work with the Windows 8.1 machine? I want to print and scan from all of my computers without having to uninstall/reinstall version 7/version 8.1 Support Centers.
This is a joint Windows 7 / Windows 8.1 question. I can't see a way to select two operating systems.
This question was solved.

Hi,
You don't need to reinstall any software on the existing machine(s). You only need to install software and drivers for NEW machine(s) or any old machine after upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1 for THAT machine.

HP Photosmart Plus B209a is no longer printing through wireless connection. Appreciate any suggestions...

Hello. My HP Photosmart Plus B209a all in one printer stopped working through wireless connection yesterday. I have tried to delete the printer and reinstall using HP Setup Assistant, but when I attempt to configure the device for a wireless network, the HP Setup Assistant quits unexpectedly. I can succesfully set up the printer, but only for use with a USB cable. I noticed that there was an HP printer software update installed yesterday version 2.16.1. Could this have anything to do with it? I read something about airprint in the support discussions but I dont see the nearby printer option anywhere? I checked the list of compatible printers and mine is on there so I am not sure what I am missing here. I would hate to go out and buy a new printer. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

I have the same printer but my problem stems from installing a new router. I went through the exact same steps that you did and the HP Installer crashed on me 5 different times at the exact same spot. I called HP and got through to them and after 15 minutes he informed me that this particulart printer is no longer "supported" and software is not available. I told him that I downloaded the update that was available today. He was no help whatsoever. I also can print via USB but that is not at all what I want. The downside of this printer anyways is that it is not Airprint compatible. So, its either reinstall the old router or buy a new printer. This *****!

Photosmart Plus B209a not printing yellow

My Photosmart Plus B209a doesn't seem to be printing yellow. First thought was a blockage, but having changed the cartridge as it was low anyway, it's still not printing yellow. Any thoughts?
This question was solved.

Problem now solved, just needed to clean the printhead. I always thought the printhead was part of the cartridge, so by changing the cartridge I'd changed the printhead. Turns out that isn't the case!

Problem printing scanned PDF document from iPad to HP Photosmart Plus B209a

Hi,
I'd like to report a problem printing a scanned PDF document from iPad via HP ePrint application to my HP Photosmart Plus B209a printer. The document was sent to the printer without any issue. However, the printer only prints out the
screenshot image in the center of the PDF page, and the image is enlarged and rotated to fit in an A4 paper. The rest of the document is simply ignored by the printer. The document with the problem can be downloaded in the link below:
Download PDF document with the problem
What could be wrong? Thank you in advance!

Thanks for the reply.
I received the document from my teacher, so I don't know what program she used to scan it.
I tried to print the document directly from my PC which works fine though, so I guess the document is OK.
My HP printer is an old model which doesn't support eprint or air print, so I used the eprint application on iOS to print the document. I tried both color and black/white which gave me the same result: only the center screenshot image is printed out, and the image is enlarged and rotated to fit an A4 paper, the rest of the document is just ignored.
What do you mean by saving it as a document?

Hp photosmart plus b209a-m not connecting to wifi

Hello forum members,
I have recently changed modems to a Zxytel model (in Prague in the Czech Republic) and successfully set up the wifi with my 15" MacBook Pro using the latest Lion OS, as well as on my iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get my HP Photosmart Plus B209a-m correctly set up on the wireless network. I go through the standard setup procedures using the HP Setup Assistant (as I have many times before with no problems). It recognizes the printer on the system, but eventually gives me a "Device Not Reachable" error message (it can't find my MacBook, although I'm successfully using the laptop on the same wifi address). I'm stumped.
I've tried rebooting the laptop, unplugging the printer, deleting the printer from my list and starting all over again. None of them are time consuming, so no big deal, but none of them are solving my issues either.
In the meantime, I can print using a USB cable, so I'm not totally out of luck, but I'd like to get this printer properly configured for wireless use.
Any help?
A Price

You didn't try to use it wireless and forget to change it back to wired?
Unplug it for 30 seconds and then plug it back in?
