Brief:
A printer HP OfficeJet 5608 conneted with one Windows XP computer via USB.  And sharing on LAN.

The windows has received the printing job, it alawys shows printing, but just can't finish it.
What could this problem be?   Please help, Thank you!

Hi Kmanxx,
The update failure might be caused by a variety of reasons such as connection issues, incomplete Components and firewall. For troubleshooting, specific error code of the failure update will be helpful.
You also could find installation failure events and error code in log files, such as WindowsUpdate.log (C:\Windows\ WindowsUpdate.log) and CBS.log(C:\windows\logs\cbs\cbs.log). Here you first want to search for “error” in your logs. This will search for
Error entries. Focus on the day the installation attempt occurred. Refer to your time line of update log, find what error happened. Of course you could post your log content and we’d like to give it a look.
How to collect the specific error code of failure update:
We can do this by viewing your update history.
1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen (or, if you're using a mouse, pointing to the lower-right corner of the screen and moving the mouse pointer up), and tap or click Settings.
2. Tap or click Change PC settings, and then Update and recovery.
3. Tap or click View your update history.
View failed update error code.

  • Printing from Linux to Windows shared printer

    Rather than use SMB to connect from Lion to the Windows XP printer share, a better method is to enable Print Services for UNIX on Windows XP and then use LPD on the Mac to print via the Windows share.
    To install Print Services for UNIX on Windows XP:
    Log on to the Windows server with an administrative-level account.
    Start the Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel.
    Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
    Click Other Network File and Print Services, and then click Details.
    Click to select the Print Services for UNIX check box, and then click OK.
    Follow the instructions on the screen to finish the installation
    If you haven't done so already, share the printer on Windows XP and make the name one word - no spaces or special characters
    With the print services enabled you can then create the printer queue on Lion.
    Open Print & Scan and click + to add a printer
    Select the IP icon and set the protocol to Line Printer Daemon - LPD
    For the Address, enter the IP address of the Windows XP computer
    For the Queue name, enter the share name set for the printer in Windows XP
    Name and Location are free text so you can set this to something meaningful
    For the Print Using menu, select the supporting printer driver. Note that like connections via SMB, the vendors driver for Lion in some cases cannot be used and an alternate like those offered by the Gutenprint suite must be used.
    Click the OK button to complete the queue creation.
    Now you are ready to test the new print queue.   

  • Trying to connect to a printer through a windows shared printer

    I have two printers connected to a Windows machine. On that machine I have shared both printers. A Brother and a color HP 3600N. When i go into print setting and try to set them up I can see both.
    I connected to the Brother Printer and it is working fine.
    I tried to connect to the HP 3600N but the print driver was not available for that machine. I went to HPs web site and downloaded the driver and did the install. I rebooted and tried again. Still the HP 3600N driver was not showing up.
    I tried using two other print drivers the 3500 and the 3700. With both I was able to "connect" to the printer, but the printer only printed garbage.
    In order to make sure the printer was working with the Mac. I disconnected it from the PC and directly connected it to the Mac. It found it immediately and the 3600N driver appeared...the printer worked fine.
    I then disconnected it from the mac and reconnected it to the PC...rebooted etc.
    Then i tried to find the printer again. Once again that print driver 3600n was not available.
    How can I over come this. I need to have both printers connecting to the PC for now
    Thanks
    Mark

    Look at the printer sharing instructions on the invaluable iFelix Tech Notes site.
    If problems persist, check System Preferences -> Sharing -> Firewall -> Advanced and if necessary clear/uncheck the options to block UDP traffic and enable stealth mode; as long as you're behind a NAT router, those options aren't essential. Windows does seem to put out a slew of UDP traffic, and I've found that blocking UDP/enabling stealth mode block my home eMac from seeing the Windows machine to which a shared HP printer is connected.

  • Print from iBook to Windows shared printer

    Hi
    I would like to be able to print from my iBook through my airport extreme base station to my desktop which is running Windows (XP SP2).
    The printer is connected to the desktop not via the USB port on the AEBS.
    Is there a way for this to work? I have bonjour installed on my windows desktop but it only sees the printers i have installed on my ibook.
    Please help...
    Many thanks in advance

    Hello -- Thanks for the post. I would like to know if you have tried this procedure to connect to a windows printer that is shared via a server on a subnet different from the macintosh's subnet?
    Thanks.
    Yes.
    This is how I did it. There may be an easier way.
    But Bonjour sure did not help.
    Listen very closely - it is much harder than it
    should be.
    1) Make sure the Windows printer is shared. Use a
    sensible name with no spaces.
    2) Go to System Preferences and click on "Print and
    Fax"
    3) Press on the + button to add a printer. The
    printer browser panel will appear
    4) Hold down the OPTION button. (no really - this is
    how you do it) and click on the MORE PRINTERS button
    at the botton of the browser pane
    5) A sheet appears - in the top-most pull down select
    ADVANCED
    6) In the next pull-down (called Device) select
    Windows Printer via Samba.
    7) Type something into Device name.- whatever you
    want to call it.
    8) In the devide URL type this.....
    smb://username:password@workgroup/computername/printer
    name
    The user and password have to apply to the windows
    machine.
    The workgroup is the name of the Windows workgroup
    The computer name is the name of the windows machine
    and the printer name is..er.. the name of the shared
    printer.
    If your username has spaces - it could all go
    horribly wrong.
    9) Then use the Printer Model - to select the printer
    manufacturer and model. If your printer is not
    there... you may be skrood.
    10) Finally press ADD!!!!!
    At this point you can select your default paper size.
    Remember to select A4 if you are in Europe.
    Then try printing something.
    Not exactly typically Apple "just works" - but it
    does work!

    Are you using HDMI or an Apple Airplay Module to go to the TV Speakers?
    If you are using an HDMI it's straight through output. The internal speakers are disabled.
    If you are using an Airplay Module:
    - Go on iTunes
    - Locate the Airplay icon that has a TV with an up arrow icon much like your iPhone has for Bluetooth
    - Click on that and Airplay to ModuleName

    Why have I lost PDF printing capability through the File>Print menu?  When will it be fixed?

    What app are you using to view PDF files? Preview can be a poor choice for some PDF files - I recommend using Adobe Reader - http://get.adobe.com/reader/ - perhaps it will solve your printing problem.

  • When I press play on my iPod the only the thing that happens the songs cycle through the current playlist instead of playing the audio. How do I fix this?

    Ever since this morning I synced my ipod to my computer all that happens is the ipod cycles through the songs in the current selected playlist. No audio or anything. All the songs that are in my song libraries and are synced to my ipod properly. I did not disconnect the cable whiile it was syncing. It has been a long time since I synced it. Why is my ipod doing this? This ipod is the current ipod classic with 160 GB. Please help

    Thank you, when I meant by I haven't synced with my library in a long time. I meant the day before this morning. So I already synced it and I am not hearing any audio when I press play. Right now I am in front of a mac at my job and I have synced and ejected it from a different computer and it still isn't working. Does this have anything to do with the fact that it might have something to do with my music library at my home computer?

    Reminders is automatically installed with 10.8 or above. A new Mac should have 10.9; it's possible that, with a third-party vendor, you have an earlier OS. Check under the Apple menu in the top left and click About This Mac. That will tell you what version of OS X you have.

  • Query on rendering the Human Tasks in the customized GUI application.

    Hi All,
    In oracle11g BPEL, Is there any way to render the Human Tasks in the Customized GUI (Weblogic Portal) application rather that using the applications like "Oracle BPM WorkList"?. Does the Oracle11g BPEL supports this ?. My requirement is that, i need to render the Human tasks inside my own GUI application. I do not want to allow the end user of my application to use the other GUI applications like Work List to wotk up on the human tasks. Instead of this, User must be able to access and work up on the BPEL human tasks through my Customized GUI (Weblogic Portal) application. Is there any way in Oracle11g BPEL to achieve the required functionality?.

    Hi Naga
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e10660/toc.htm
    1. I would not recommend using APIs unless and otherwise if you do not have any other option. You can always create the TaskForms in your own custom pages using out of box generated bindings for each .TASK file. This gives more flexibility. There are lots of stuff associated with a Task apart from your own custom payload like full Task details, system attributes, headers, history, comments/attachments etc. You do not want to use APIs to get all these.
    The below 2 links should give you an overview of overall architecture of a Workflow and TaskForms.
    Re: Integrating BPM taskflows into an ADF application
    Re: deploying a large Oracle BPM Application with multiple UI projects

    Once you have basics covered, refer oracle docs also that shows how to reuse a single project.

    Hi,
    It seems that your configuration is Ok. By the way, the workaround for this error is:
    ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
    [Transparent gateway for ODBC][H001] The environment variable <HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO> is not set.
    * Set HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO in the hs{sid}init.ora file to the data source name.
    Example: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = <ODBC DataSource Name>
    * Make sure the hs{sid}init.ora file exists in the ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin directory and has the same name as the SID in the LISTENER.ORA.
    Example: If SID=hsodbc in the listener.ora file, then the hs{sid}init.ora file would be named ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin/inithsodbc.ora

    oooch - I can fix it - I need delete the task and recreate it. Which is amazingly tedious as I cannot see if a task needs recreating or not. There's 10 template plans and an average of 200 tasks - then I have to rename the template - the assign the
