"Mounting Failed" - downloaded driver for HP deskjet 6980

I downloaded the printer driver for my HP deskjet 6980 and when it finished downloading it said that mounting failed. Why would this be?

Hi Kat,
Either a RAM/Hardware issue, Disk needs Repair, or some glith in downloading.
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), off the HD & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, reboot once more.

    Can't download driver for  HP Deskjet F4440 on my 10.6.8 ... says can't read file.
    Anyone experienced this?   Also weird, because I thought I had 7.0...Apple store says it downloaded Mountain Lion (the "cat" after Snow Leopard, right?) So why does it still say 10.6.8?
    Regardless, I need to use this printer as I just moved and need to print out important stuff for my business.  But  can't download the driver.  Why can't it read it?
    And I don't have the $30 to pay for HP tech support.
    Thanks anyone who can help with this.

    Hi peshi77,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are trying to install your HP Laserjet P1006 to your computer running Windows 8.1, but everytime you attempt to extract the files it crashes. After some research I see there were no updated drivers made available for the Windows 8.1 OS, you must install the Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver, to get the basic printing functions. Please click on the link below to download and install:

    Once downloaded, please follow the on screen instructions. I hope this helps!

    The software is unfortunately no longer available on our webpage but i could send it to you. What operating system do you have?
    Please note that if you bought this MD300 from an operator our software will probably not work as the MD300 may have a different firmware. If you bought it from an operator you need to contact the operator for software/drivers.

    I'm new to MacBook Pro.
    My system is Mac OS X v.10.6.8.
    I used to work on my 3000 photos with GIMP on a P.C, but since I had a breakdown, I would like to carry on on my Mac as soon as possible.
    Figuring out unaided a new OS after a breakdown is the best prescription for another breakdown.
    Before going back to editing your photos, I suggest you need to familiarise yourself with your new OS. Get a book (eg, David Pogue's "Missing Manual…") -- now, that Lion's been out and about for some time, you can probably get the Snow Leopard (aka Mac OS X v10.6) edition at a discount. Take the time to read it and understand it, and you'll spare yourself a mountain of frustration. There are enough similarities between Mac OS X and Windows to fool you into believing almost everything works the same way, when, of course, it doesn't -- many similarities are only skin-deep.
    Once you've done that, you'll be in a better position to install and use GIMP or look for alternatives.
    where do I find the exact version (in french)
    For French issues, you are probably better off checking the forums on MacBidouille or MacGeneration.

    where can i download driver for my hp 15-r002ne? support.hp.com shows "We were unable to find any drivers for your product. Drivers may be in development so please check back at a later date or visit the product homepage. "

    Hi: Unfortunately, the support pages are not working for most of the newer HP PC's. It has been that way for about a day now. Since I am not employed by nor do I represent HP, I am not sure when they will have the pages working again. Check back again some other time. I know the problem has been reported, but I don't know how long this is going to take to fix. With the Independence Day holiday weekend in the USA, I would not expect this to be taken care of immediately.

    This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

  • Did someone have experience to use downloaded driver for SR 245?

    Did someone have experience to use downloaded driver for SR 245 to take data? I used GPIB-USB-HS cable (from NI) to collect data, and corrected GPIB address in the driver, which is found by M&A Explorer. When I ran this program driver, I saw ERROR light flashing one time and Activity light flashing for another time, but I got nothing for data. I used BNC cable to connect input signal in INPORT 1 in the front panel of SR 245, so there should have signal input.  Do I need to change something in the program?
    Thanks

    Hi Linghui,
    The EABO error usually indicates a timeout.  This could be caused by a
    few different things such as sending an
    incorrect command or not appending the correct termination
    character.  I would check the manual for your device and see if it requires a certain type of termination character, as well as what commands it accepts.  You can also find troubleshooting techniques for this error here and here.
    Hope this helps!

  • Installing Driver for HP Deskjet D2360

    I tried installing the driver for my HP Deskjet D2360 printer from the HP website.
    I downloaded the full 215 MB HP Photosmart and Deskjet Software Suite (twice), but ran into a Fatal Error.
    It advised that I download the HP Printer Installation Wizard, which I did.  it carried out the same download and it failed too with the same error.
    The printer works fine with my PC running Windows 7.
    Can someone help ?

  • Is there a Mountain Lion driver for HP Deskjet 5740?

    I've been to the HP support site; they make it look as if they have a Deskjet 5740 driver for Mountain Lion, but when I get to the page where I'm supposed to be able to choose a download, I'm caught in this loop with "choose your connection" and an FAQ link, but no actual link to an actual driver download. Here's the page I keep being caught at:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=357202&lc=en&cc=us&d lc=en
    Is HP pulling my leg here? Is there a real, actual HP 5740 driver for Mountain Lion, or is it some kind of mythical thing? Almost all of my Google results end up pointing to the HP support/download site, but when I follow the links and click on the appropriate choices, I'm always routed to the link above, which claims to have a download link, but when I get there, there's nothing.
    Thanks in advance,

    Apple supplies all the drivers for printers that are supported in each version of OS X. If Apple doesn't have a drive for it in the Printer Driver Package then there isn't one and that is why HP has you in that loop.
    One way to check it to open Print & scan then click the Add Printer, if there are no printers already in that section, or the Plus ( + ) sign at the bottom and then broswe for the printer and OS X will install the proper driver and software.

  • Mac OS 10.7.5 Printer driver for HP Deskjet 895Cxi

    I gather there is no printer driver for this printer for OS 10.7.5.
    Can one use the printer driver shown on this link for OS 10.5?    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=59306&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
    Thanks

    Hi Hal 17.
    No, the installation will fail by using the drivers for 10.5, the printer is incompatible with Lion:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01856359&tmp_track_link=ot_faqs/top_issues/en_u...
    However you may give a try to the 3rd party HPIJS print drivers, those seems to support the printer and compatible with Lion.
    Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads prior adding the printer by selecting the driver by HPIJS:

  • Need driver for hp Deskjet 3050A J611 series on a pre-Intel Imac

    Looking for a printer driver for a HP Deskjet 3050A J611 series printer for use on a Pre Intel IMac

    Newer drivers for older hardware runs into trouble. Had that problem with HP
    over several systems and models of Mac. Sometimes if the printer and OS X
    isn't too obsolete, drivers could be tried in one printer intended for a similar one.
    The original installer CD for printer software drivers and extras is always a good
    thing to keep, so long as there is a printer or a computer on-hand that may use it.
    it's a matter of communication
    Recent upgrade with newer computer & OS X, has me looking at printer drivers
    and a suggested download from Epson of 1.3GB was not really adequate nor
    was it necessary; but some 'expert' at Geek guys showed me a web site on his
    Smart phone. The real problem was a USB cable to an AIO printer. The other
    older printer could not use the 'correct driver' for the newer OS X, in same D/L.
    Planned obsolescence is such a joy. Even when a product is almost bulletproof,
    someone wants to sell something else. 'Profit-driven' tends to waste resources.
    Cheap hardware & costly consumables. Wait til they charge us for good Air...!
