Officejet 5610 - select a printer

I have am Officjet 5610 all-in-one and I am running Windows 7 (64 bit). When I go to select a printer the drop down box lists many (may 20) Officejet 5610 series printers. Only one is correct. How do I delete all of these printers from the drop down so I only have one to choose from?

Sorry that you are having this problem. I know this can be very frustrating. 
One thing you can do is go to Devices and Printers. Check and see if there is a lot of printers in there. If so, RIGHT CLICK on each one and Delete it.
Another suggestion, would be to stop and restart the print spooler. 
1. Click Star Menu
2. RIGHT CLICK on COMPUTER
3. Choose MANAGE
4. Select Services and Applications. Choose Services
5. Scroll down to Printer Spooler. Stop it and Restart it. 
Let me know if this helps.

  • HP Officejet 5610: Problem Adding Printer via USB

    Hello. I am trying to print via USB on a HP Officejet 5610. My Mac has detected it via USB. I tried to add it by "Default Printer." I got the model "HP" but could not find the model "Officejet 5610" for the gimp-print. I tried a few random models to print but none of them work. Could someone help me please? I do not have the installation CD. This is not my house. The person who owns the printer is usually not home and his computer locked.
    Thank you.

    Disconnect the printer.  Remove references to it from  print and scan in system preferences.  Remove the HP folder from /Library/Printers.  Reconnect it.  Try again.  It should dowwnload drivers.

  • Officejet 5610 not able to create custom print sizes

    Hi -- I use my Officejet 5610 for both my work and my personal printing needs.  On my work computer which has Windows XP as the operating system,  when I got to Properties and Paper Options/Quality tab there is a button for me to select "Custom Size".   On my personal computer which has Vista Home Basic as the operating system there is no option on the Paper Options/Quality tab to choose a custom print size.  Is there a driver that I might be missing which would allow the custom print size on the Vista computer?  I'm trying to print envelopes which are 6" x 9" and nothing I do seems to work.  I have managed to print one envelope using Letter size but that took about 6 hours to get one printed.   My envelopes keep causing a paper jam -- which once cleared from the printer is still showing up as a jam on the computer and I have to re-boot the whole system to clear it.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Try the following
    open solution center> Setting> Printer Settings> Print settings and you will find a custom option there and then create a new size and give it a name and when you print from any application you will see the new size reflection in the application. Are you not seeing the custom option as seen below?

  • Printing to HP OfficeJet 5610 connected to networked Windows Computer

    I have an HP OfficeJet 5610 connected one of my windows (XP Pro SP2) computers that is on my network. I can see the printer under the Windows Printers tab, but there is not an applicable driver. I have installed the HP Printer software found on this page: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=oj-55822-2 &lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=441125&os=219&lang=en, but this didn't help. How can I get this to work.

    Windows Printing and IP printing on OS X are provided by the CUPS system. You need a CUPS-capable driver to use these built-in network protocols. HP's drivers for non-postscript printers aren't CUPS drivers. You need to install the third-party hpijs driver (3-part set):
    http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs
    You also need to get the PPD because your model was left out of the current hpijs:
    http://openprinting.org/showprinter.cgi?recnum=HP-OfficeJet5610
    Unfortunately there isn't a PPD there, either. I don't know how to obtain one. If we're patient, maybe Matt Broughton will come by and help us get the PPD.
    You should experiment with the HP officejet 5500 foomatic model choice to see if it works.

  • Cannot print to an HP Officejet 5610 anything from PSE Version 10

    Help! I'm using Adobe Photoshop Elements Version 10 and I cannot print anything either directly from it, or even anything created out of it to my HP Officejet 5610 series printer.  I am not having the same issue that others have reported with the Fax Window coming up, nothing prints at all.  It doesn't even go into the Print Queue.  I have been discussing (on a forum) with HP and they have suggested using the Deskjet 990C driver.  I tried that and still nothing happens.  I can print to a Canon Pixma with no issue, it's definitely something with this printer/print driver. I tried renaming the printer to make it shorter, I have tried completely deleting and reinstalling the printer (using HP Cleanup utility), I have updated drivers, tried using the 5610 as well as the 450C and 990C.
    This is happening directly out of PSE as well as anything I create and save - so making it a PDF, it won't print.  Making it a JPG, it won't print.  I can print PDF files not created in PSE with no issue. I can print JPGs not created by PSE with no issue.
    Anyone have any other suggestions on things I can try?

    Hi,
    Can you try some experiments please - or tell us if you have tried them.
    1) Load a new image (one that hasn't been saved before) into the editor and without saving it, try printing from the editor. It is important that PSE hasn't saved it.
    2) Load any image into the editor and do a Save for Web (you may have to reduce the size) in JPG format and see if you can print that JPG either from PSE or another program.
    Please let us know the results.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600 - Cannot select color printing in settings

    I selected grayscale printing.  Now I want to print in color and cannot find how to print in color.  Option not found.

    Here's an answer - it might not match your setup though:
    OS: Windows 8.1
    Print Driver: HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver, 2012-10-22 , Version28.8
    Bring up the HP Officejet Pro 8600 software and select Set Preferences under Print:
    Then on the Printing Prefrences dialog, press the Advanced button:
    And then on the Advanced Options dialog, turn off the option under Printer Features for Print in Grayscale:
    Hopefully that helps.

  • Officejet 5610 All-in-One Printer: Properties dialogue box for Mac OS

    I recently connected an Officejet 5610 to a Macbook Air (OS 109.2) & was offered the default driver download which I accepted. The Properties options for the printer are very much different than for Windows XP that I was using and seem to offer far fewer choices. If I install drivers from the CD that came with the printer (Macintosh CD version 7.9.0), purchased in May 2007, will the Properties control be more extensive? 

    Hello HP-5610,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're wondering why the Officejet 5610 properties is different using a 10.9.2 operating system. I will do my best to assist you! For this printer and for your operating system, there is only a basic print driver using a Apple Update.
    Please follow this HP document on OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac. This is properly why you have limited options since there isn't a full feature driver.
    If you have any further questions, please let me know. Have a great night!

  • OfficeJet 5610 software won't install on Windows 7

    I have an OfficeJet 5610 and am running Windows 7 x64. Whenever I attempt to install the software for my printer the installer vanishes part way through. I got as far as choosing which software componants I wanted to install, hit next, and then it's gone.

    Alright. These next few steps are a little more complicated but I think you should be able to follow along. Id like to try to stop all the TSR programs running in the background. Heres how we can do it.
    On the Windows taskbar, click the Windows icon ( ), type msconfig in the Search Programs and Files box, and then press Enter . The User Account Control window opens.
    Click Continue . The System Configuration window opens.
    Click the General tab, and then click Selective Startup check box.
    If there is a checkmark next to Load Startup items, click the checkmark to remove it.
    Click the Services tab, and then click Hide All Microsoft Services (at the bottom of the Services tab).
    Click Disable All , and then click Ok .
    Click Restart . The computer automatically restarts.
    Post back with your results so I can make sure we get this issue resolved!

  • HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus printing issues

    I have been having two new issues suddenly (within the past 2 weeks) with my HP Officejet Pro 8500A Plus. I am trying to print from my iMac 27 inch running OS.X 10.8.4 Both the mac and the printer are connected to a wireless network via an Xfinity Wireless Gateway. I have just replaced the ink cartridges in the printer but am unable to print black & white. In fact everything is comming out kinda pink. I have posted on HP's support site and was told to
    Download and install this: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    Restart your Mac.
    Reset the printing system:
    - Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Defualt tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and then next to the "Use" pulldown, select the printer model (not AirPrint). Wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    Having done that initially my problem was solved. But now I'm having the problem again. I went through the above steps again, but still not able to print. Are there any suggestions for a fix. Is anyone else seen this issue? Is there a particular printer manufacturer that works well with Apple. Because at this point I have a large paperweight that is of no use to me!

    The fact that it was solved and then came back points to some (unknown) issue with your Mac's software.
    Try these generic fixes first (and then do the reset printing system and re-add again):

  • Cannot install HP Officejet 5610 software for windows 8

    Hi there
    I am running Windows 8 (64-bit)
    I have downloaded the HP software for the Officejet 5610 All in One. When I try to run/install the software, however, it tells me that the file is corrupt.
     How do I get around this?
    Thanks,

    Hi there
    I can print - the drivers downloaded automatically when I plugged the printer in - but I need the HP Solution Centre Software - I do a lot of scanning and need it for that.
    I have still been unable to install the software. It took over a day to download/save the installation file (AIO_CDB_NonNet_Full_Win_WW_140_408), which is supposed to be 412 MB. Only 358 MB downloaded. When I run it, it says file corrupt. I am running windows 8 on a brand new, top of the range Dell How can I get this software to download? Thanks!
