Please Help Installing Printer

so this summer i purchased an HP4140 printer which is said to be capable of running with Tiger 10.4.x. I tried to install the software and all i got was an error message. I contacted Hp and they said the problem was not on their side. So i went out and bought an EPSON stylus (something) and when i went to install, i also got an error message and it said the installer appeared to be damaged. I am now really needing a printer to get ready for Senior Portfolios, college, etc. Can someone please tell me how I can get some type of printer to install without me having to go to the Apple store and pay a tech there to do it for me?
thanks

motocross,
the drivers provided may be older than your system. OS 10.4 has most of the popular printer drivers already installed. Just go ahead and try to "add printer" in the printer setup utility. Your printer may show up there.

  • Please help my printer talk to my computer. An error message always occurs when I try to print and Firefox self-help has not fixed the problem. Please help me directly with fixing the issue. Thank you.

  • Please help!  Printing in Lightroom 2.6...can't do it :(

    I just bought an Epson Artison 810 and it worked great the first night.  Now when I print anything in LR2.6 all I get is a solid gray.  It will print my Identity plate and it shows the picture fine in the print window.  I can print in PS 4 and all other programs without problems.  I am sure I did something stupid  in LR but, don't know what it is.  Please help a frustrated old man if you can.
    Thanks
    Alan North

    This is strange!  Installed LR3 Beta and it works great.  I hope I don't have to use the beta exclusivly just so I can print! 

  • Please Help me Print 4x6 in Photoshop!

    I want to print out my photos on Canon 4x6 Photo Paper Plus Glossy on my IP4200 using Photoshop. The Easy Photo Print Plus program that came with the printer works, but it's PowerPC and I would rather use Photoshop.
    I can't figure out how to print properly on 4x6. Can someone please help me and lay it out step by step?
    Thank you!

    Run /Applications/Utilities/Printer Setup Utility
    Click [Add]
    Click [More Printers]
    Select the Printer Interface (i.e. AppleTalk, Bluetooth or Windows)
    Under [Printer Model] select Canon
    In the window that opens scroll and find your Model # and select it, click [Add]
    (If you have a CD with drivers on it you may need to install these if not available in the menu)
    Quit Printer Setup Utility
    In Photoshop go to File/Print and the Canon should be there.

  • PLEASE HELP! - Printing Yellow on Brown Kraft Paper

    Please, please help!! I am sooooo frustrated right now! For starters, I'm a bit beyond intermediate Photoshop user (10yrs of habitual use). I NEED to print yellow on brown kraft paper. There's no alternative. I have to or I'm going to have one VERY upset client. Really hoping someone out there can help me very soon or it's going to cost me lots of $$$ when I have to fake it and print the entire brown kraft-pattern background on white paper just to get the yellow to show (picture one, small yellow key on a full sheet of brown kraft paper)
    Here's the skinny..... I obviously have chosen to have photoshop control the color management. The closest I have come is to use the printing profile: Japan Color 2002 Newspaper without black point compensation (I think I used Relative Compensation). The only way I can get the yellow to show on the brown is to actually PRINT a brown paper background ON TOP of the brown colored paper. Obviously, this is causing the brown paper to look quite dark. The yellow is perfect and I've now lost every other color (Navy & 3 shades of Gray). They're all dull against the multi-layered brown. I have tried manipulating the yellow to be more green or more orange and sure enough, they turn out looking green or orange. Should I switch to CMYK instead of RGB? If orange is a variation of brown, why does orange show up on brown so much easier than yellow?
    Is there a way to manipulate the newspaper profiles to adjust for browner paper rather than grayer paper?
    I am sooo close but I literally cannot figure this out!! Please tell me there's a color profile combination I'm not aware of..... and please don't tell me that printing yellow on brown is impossible After all, we're photoshop users. It's possible; just have to figure out how.
    Sincerely, One Desperate Designer

    You may ask your printer whether he can use opaque yellow ink:
    https://www.google.de/search?hl=de&as_q=&as_epq=opaque+yellow+ink&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as _nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=&as_occt=any&safe=images&as_filetype=&as_rights=
    Standard offset ink is transparent. The reflected light is always darker than the substrate.

  • Could anyone please help about print check??

    Dear expert,
    We are testing the print process in  OEM sample company but it did not print out and show that "The print document could not be started?" I have no clue how to solve this problem. The printer can print anything except this check, we are new to SAP and will go live very soon. Please help if you could. Thanks a lot.

    Mickey usually the standard for processing a check in not to use the check for payment area, thats more for manual checks or viewing a check already posted.
    My suggestion is to go to the outgoing payments area and select what you are going to pay using this area, post this..
    then go to the document printing under Banking, change the document type to checks for payment
    select the checks you want to print and enter your starting ck number...
    send this to the printer of choice, wait until all checks print and then confirm
    Hope this helps
    ps also make sure you have the default layout for the check listed in Admin, set up, banks, house banks...scroll to the right and see the defaults to set up.

  • Please help -installed update from itunes wiped my phone

    I just installed an update on itunes and it must have done some sort of factory reset as it wiped everything including my contacts from my phone. I plugged it in again to see if it could install a back up and I can't find anything. Also, it started 'backing up' the new empty phone and asked me to register it.
    Please help anyone- I had a lot of music and expensive aps on there not to mention contacts and diary entries. I never had problems with it before but this is an absolute nightmare.
    Many thanks

    Am really annoyed now- by the number of people viewing this thread this is clearly a big problem and yet nobody at Apple has bothered to help. I would much rather pick up the phone and speak to someone but can't because it's been 90 days since my purchase.
    I have spent a lot of money on music and aps and it looks like Apple don't even care- it's a disgrace. I can now see what all the fuss is about in the media and why people are angry at them as well. I won't be buying any of their products again that's for sure.

  • Please help Install problems

    I boot from CD run through the sun boot part ok.
    Then i select to boot from my CD at the end. THis works fine.
    It then starts to load sunOs 2.8 but restarts very shortly after and does'nt give me a chance to read error message.
    I tryed loads of different configs with no sucess Please help.
    The system i run is a p4 wit intels G850GB Mainboard geforce2, 128MB PC 800

    P4, seems not supported yet. Try to look into the
    Solaris Intel forum next to this. Some discussions
    about P4 already. Maybe you will find what you want.Indeed.
    Have a look at
    http://groups.google.com/groups?q=solaris+p4+setup_mca+kadb&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&site=groups
    these usenet articles give a procedure to boot solaris 8
    on a P4 cpu.
    Once you've got the system installed using the kadb
    procedure given above you should try to install the latest
    kernel patch 108529-08 that fixes problem solaris has with
    these P4 cpus.

  • Please help Installing new Hard Drive.  PLEASE HELP

    I know this topic has been posted before and I have read all the reviews but still nothing ..
    I m trying to install a new hd. I put the screws where there needed to go, plugged in all appropriate SATA plugs into new HD, went to dicl utility and no new HD shows up to initialize or format. Please help me .. I have purchased a 500 gb Seagate HD from ramjet.

    I have installed and uninstalled the new HD about 5 times already. Please help me

    On older ATA drives there are little plastic tabs that, depending on configuration, designate a drive as "Master" or "Slave." If both drives are configured as "master" it can sometimes cause one not to be seen by the computer.
    I only mentioned it because:
    A) I had it happen 2x with my old G4.
    B) Most new drives are shipped with the jumpers in "master" position, I'm guessing because they assumed most people were replacing their primary drives, not adding them.
    Check out these links for more about jumpers on drives.
