Need HP LaserJet 1012 to work with Vista!

I just bought a new HP computer with Windows Vista. My 3 year old perfectly good printer HP LaserJet 1012 isn't compatible? Surely not. I can't get anything to happen other than a message telling me it's not compatible. Is there any solution? Thanks for any suggestions! 

I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial printer. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/
I hope this helps.

  • Laserjet 1012 on network with Vista 64 bit laptop

    I am currently trying to connect to a Laserjet 1012 that is set up on our home network with a laptop running 64 bit Vista.  I have tried to just rght click and drag the printer from the networked computer it is directly connected to and then try the install option.  This brings up a dialog box stating that it cannot find the correct inf file or drivers to install the printer.  I have tried downloading and extracting the Vista 64 bit drivers from the HP support site but I can not find the inf files needed to complete the install.  Had been running an XP laptop with the printer installed the same way and am currently using another laptop with 32 bit version of Vista that was installed the same way with no problems.  I have tried several different things to get this printer installed but still can't get it up and running. 
    Any help will be appreciated.

  • Will my hp Laserjet 1012 printer work with my new Mac Mini (OS 10.7, Lion)?

    I finally have to upgrade from my Mac Mini OS 10.4.11 to a Mac Mini OX 10.7, and wonder if I have to buy all new peripherals, too.
    Here's what I have:
    HP Laserjet 1012 black and white printer
    Proview 17-inch display, PL913s
    Epson Perfection 4490 flatbed scanner. (I scan a lot of manuscript pages and must have a scanner with an adjustable top)
    Wired keyboard with numeric keypad
    Wired mouse
    Yes, I know they're old, but they work fine!
    Thank you!

    Hello Fiona6,
    I use iMac (Snow Lep) and 2011 Mini (Lion) and from both systems my results are:
    Wired keyboard & mouse - work ok, I don't like or use wireless types.
    My LaserJet 1010 - works ok (Your 1012 should also work, same series of printer).
    If your display works ok now, cannot see why it would not work. My mini works with various vga and DVI displays I have at various times attached to it.
    Don't know about your scanner though, with my all in one printer/scanner I have had to use OS X Image Capture program to scan. Might be worth a look at Epson's site to check on any software updates.
    Roy.
    Edit: Regarding display if you are getting a new mini you will need a new display adapter, minidisplayport to vga or dvi, assuming your display is one of these. This can be plugged into the Thunderbolt port on the new Macs.

  • Driver for HP Laserjet 1012 to work under Windows 7- 64 bit

    Am trying to install a HP Laserjet 1012 to work under Windows 7- 64 bit and at HP Support, could find drivers for Vista -64-bit only.
    I have tried to install this Vista - 64 bit driver and it does not seem to even print a test page.
    Is there some other tweak that I need to make or
        or
    does it mean there will be no driver specifically usable for Win - 7 and I might as well junk the printer?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Zire72 is not working with vista. help me please.

    I have a computer with Vista and a Zire72. I don't have the disk that came with it, and have tried to download the software from the website. I am not tech smart and need some simple directions and help.  I have alot of money invested in my palm zire72 and love it but it just doesn't work with vista 64. what can I do?
    Post relates to: Zire 72

    I have sat here for 4 days reading and installing everything I was told to install to be able to sync with my palm.  I am not smart about bluetooth or wi-fi. Geek squad came out and set up my wi-fi in my office. Can someone tell me or give me the A B C's of getting this thing to sync. I don't like the new phones that have everything on it. I love my palm because IT WAS SIMPLE TO USE AND SYNC.  As bad as the economy is I hate to have just wasted $300.00 on a palm that I cannot get to work. .  I have wasted alot of time reading and calling and installing and it still doesn't work. After about 8 hours today I got the desktop to download. No wonder palm is going under.  Help me please !!!!!!!

  • HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OV...

    Question to NOKIA:
    HOW LONG TIME YOU NEED TO MAKE GPS TO WORK WITH OVI MAP 3.1 in N97?
    On all N97 I know and as you can read here in forum the GPS doesn't work usable in N97 and with MAP 3.1.
    I believe that this is a software problem because often I get a GPS signal inhouse and in the wood, but from one second  to the other N97 lost the GPS signal. And this in the best weather condition under free sky. Sometimes gps signal works for 15 minutes, then the signal will drop every minute or so.
    The current position on map is shift (past) abaout 40-50 meters from the real position, so its unable to use.
    The calculated speed is always changing between 0 and the current speed. 
    I have updated phone to de newes software and firmware also to ne newest maps also has hard reseted and reformatet and the problem ist still the same. If I switch off the option "Maps improvment" (which SENDS DATA TO NOKIA!!!) the the drop outs are fewer. But evreytime the position on maps is shift about 40-50 Meters from right position. Is there a mistake in calculation the position?  Also the speed is jumping sometimes from 0 to x and back.
    CAN NOKIA TELL US WHEN THIS BUG WILL BE FIXED, AND CAN NOKIA OFFER US A REFUND.
    I have payed a lot for N97 and alot for the navigation licence and a lot for accesoires and a lot for the traffic security assistance. So I want a working phone! I dint have payed money for e alpha-stadium phone.
    If this is realy the quality of nokia phone, then It is the latest phone I have buyed from nokia.
    By the way, the phone has many many many many other bugs as described in this forum.
    Really bad work NOKIA! :-(
    I was so excited with my N95 and now this mess...
    NOKIA please answer us forum members, what you plan to do with the N97 bugs. When we can hope that the bugs are gone? Otherwise I will return my phone and want my money back and I sue for compensation.

    I have no word to disagree with you and hoping that Nokia soon will make some press statement or something else to tell us what they do with their flagship, sorry bugship Nokia N97.
    Could be a shame recognize errors, but it's worst not to say nothing ant let the bad news of Nokia N97 spread for internet even if they want to sell a Nokia N97 Mini in the near future.
    I understand and supose that we will no have no new version till september because we are in the last week and july and the activity in august decrease really high... but at least someone of Nokia could tell something about this problems and if it's possible all the other problems.
    Why Nokia Beta Labs Forum there is a direct contact with Nokia workers, and in discussions is relly rare to find?
    Yesterday is history.
    Tomorrow is a mistery.
    Today is a gift.

  • Itunes not working with Vista Home Premium 32-bit

    Itumes 10.6.3 version will not work with Vista Home Premium. I have a 32-bit operating system. I'm not sure what to do next. It appears in trying to update it deleted the old itumes, as I can't find a copy of it when I search the computer.

    Then I installed Quicktime on its own - still get the same error 'Quicktime has stopped working;
    Okay. That will be the source of the iTunes problem. (Without a properly working QuickTime, iTunes won't work correctly.)
    Checking on things that can cause QuickTime launch errors now.
    Have you at any stage installed any Codec Packs, any copies of the programs QT Alternative, QT Lite or Storm Codec, or any media converter programs that can convert files into QuickTime readable formats?
    (I'm checking on these things because depending on the versions of the programs/codec-packs, these can install earlier versions of QuickTime componentry on a PC, which can interfere with the running of a higher version of QuickTime.)

    Is your Apple Intel-based, poppelmacbook?  If not, you should consider treating yourself to a new Mac. Last December I gave up my old because it just could not update...anything because it was not Intel-based.  Updating everything on this OS to 10.9 has been confusing for me, but I just could not work with that old Mac because the updates were too smart? for my 10.6.  It is upstairs now...for visiting family:  games, garage band, etc.--things I never did use.  Apple refurbished and purchase the extended warranty.  Apple loyalist since late 1980's.

  • I can't get my HP laserjet p1102w to work with airprint

    Hi!
    So it seem's that I can't get my HP laserjet p1102w to work with airprint. I got it to send out it's own Wi-Fi signal, and i get in touch with that signal on my iPad 3. But when I wan't to print something out from Pages, then it says that it can't find any airprinters.
    I tried to update the firmware several times, but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions to what I can do?

    Hey T-racer,
    As a work-around you can also use the HP eprint method which is available with your printer. The application (HP Home & Biz) is available for free in the apple catalogue.
    You can find more info on it here:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03128518&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &product=4110396&tmp_track_link=ot_search
    It shares many of the same capabilities of airprint but is a different program/feature.
    If you have any questions, just ask!

  • IPhoto keeps saying The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto

    Upgraded to new Lion iMac from Snow Leopard iMac, then upgraded to iCloud. I upgraded to the latest version of iPhoto. I get this message that says that "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. I have iPhoto '11 version 9.2.1(628)
    I have attached the screenshot here. I have over 31,000 photos in this library. I click upgrade and it shows me a line for a while and then goes to the photos. Everything looks fine except photstream doesn't work and I always get this same message when I open iPhoto again.
    Another detail is that I do have mobileme web albums still publishing from this iPhoto. Could this be causing a problem?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Iphoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Will my Facebook albums remain?

    I just upgraded my computer to yosemite and that includes the iPhoto application.
    After opening iPhoto it says "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." I'm worried that if I chose to upgrade I will 1. lose all my photos and 2. have my synced facebok albums taken off Facebook.
    One time I moved my iPhoto library to an external hard drive and lost all my Facebook album photos so I don't want to make the same mistake.
    So does anyone know if I chose to go through with this upgrade will I lose my photos in the iPhoto and the synced albums on Facebook? If I do lose photos, how do I go recover my previous iPhoto version?

    Just to confirm. When I saved a copy of my iPhoto library on my external harddrive that's "backing-up" right?
    Also, is there anyway on Facebook to tell which albums are synced with my iPhoto so that I know which ones will be gone if something does go wrong?
    Sorry one more question Larry. I keep reading issues people are having with upgrading their iPhoto to 9.6 and the upgraded iPhoto does not recognize their library (see: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6676471). If this happens to me and I have to repair or re-install my iPhoto will my Facebook albums be affected?
    Thanks for your help Larry I appreciate it

  • "the iPhoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." WHAT?

    Ran software update a few weeks back and now I cannot seem to open iPhoto or access files within.
    The error message as soon as I open up iPhoto reads: "the iPhoto library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto."
    What do I do to overcome this?  What happens to the files in "UPGRADE?"
    Should I be worried about the safety of the files during upgrade?

    Yes - you should always be worried about yoru files if they are important to you - never upgrade without backingup just in case (the normal case is no problem but you must be prepared)

  • Adobe Photoshop 6.0 - will it work with Vista?

    Hey there -
    I bought Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, etc in 2001 (I don't know if that is relevant or not), and have Photoshop 6.0, for example.
    My laptop with Windows XP is dying very soon.  I may be forced to get a computer that has Vista.
    Will my software work with Vista?
    I appreciate you help!
    Alex

    I sent myself an email back when I upgraded to Vista, I just looked back and found the email. It had some links in it (which are no longer good), but there was some useful information and troubleshooting guides on there on how to get various older versions to work on Vista machines. I was thinking there was a "trick" on there about setting the date back on the computer or something while reinstalling Illustrator in order to get it to work. I have AI 10 at home as well, but I have not yet installed it on the Vista Machine as I got CS3 and use it on my XP machine just fine.
    If I were you I would hold off as long as you can, like Marian said, and maybe by then CS5 will be out too.

(is it possible to bypass camera raw and open the photo straight into CS5 without using camera raw first. if so how do i do that. if not how do i process pictures).
    Thank you.
    Brian in the UK.

    Photoshop by itself cannot process raw image data. That is why the Camera Raw plug-in was developed. You could try the DNG converter and convert your images to the DNG format and then the Camera Raw that you have would be able to open them. I can't recommend Lightroom because you are using Vista, and Lightroom 5 cannot be used with that operating system. It may be time for you to get a new computer and upgrade your software.
