Printing from PS 64-bit

Hi,
Has anybody had the problem that printing from 64-bit version produces only a thumbnail picture while 32-bit version works ok. My PS is installed in 64-bit Vista and I am using Xerox Phaser 6500.
regards
pertti

There are no Vista 64 bit drivers listed. Just 32 bit.

Printing from a 32 bit client in a 64 bit environment (laserjet 4000 n with windows 7)

I have a HP laserjet 4000n connected to a 64 bit windows 7 machine. Another client (32 bit) on my network wants to print to that printer. I saw on the support website instructions for how to do this:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=110&prodSeriesId=...
So far, I have installed the 64 bit driver (just re-installed and I can print from the 64 bit server).
I then downloaded the 32 bit driver files (for PCL 5) and saved them.
I then went to the printing properties of the printer and chose advanced drivers and checked the box "x86". The instructions called for finding the file "hpcuXXXc.inf". In the printer driver folder, there were 2 subfolders - one marked 64 bit and inside that folder was a file "hpcu112t.inf" (file ends in "t" not "c") - so I chose that file and pressed ok and got the following error message:
The specified location does not contain the driver HP LaserJet 4000 Series PCL5 for the requested processor architecture.
I then downloaded more drivers (for PCL 6 - even though my printer is labelled PCL 5). This time, I got no 64 bit subfolder (only one folder labelled windows vista). However , there WAS a file labelled "hpcu112c" this time - so I chose that and still got the same error message.
Help!?
Thanks.

Phychopomp1,
Windows 7 64 bit is able to run 32 bit programs. However, some programs will have issues.
Have you checked your programs against the Windows 7 compatibility list: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=2394
This should tell you if they are compatible or not with Windows 7 64-bit.
There are compatibility settings that you can try once you have installed the software also. Right click on the shortcut and choose properties, then go to the compatibility tab and try the various OS settings.
If those things fail, then you should try Windows XP Mode (convenience link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx). This will allow you to install your programs in a virtual copy of Windows XP SP3 using Windows Virtual PC. Once XP Mode is installed, when you install your software into it, you will get a shortcut to use the program from your Windows 7 start menu without even seeing the XP Mode window.
Hope this helps,

How can I wirelessly print from a 64-bit Windows 7 laptop to a printer on a 32-bit Vista laptop?

My DeskJet 722c is connected to my 32-bit Vista computer. I would like to print documents out on the printer from my 64-bit HP ProBook S-series laptop, which is running on Windows 7. I can do this if I disconnect the printer from the 32-bit computer running on Vista and connect it to the computer running Windows 7. But I don't want to go through the hassel. How do I connect to the printer from my Windows 7 computer, going through my Local Area Network? Do I need to install a Windows 7 driver on my Vista machine? Do I need to install a driver for Vista on my Windows 7 machine? If so, how do I do this? I'm confused

How do I print from a 64-bit client to 32-bit printer?

My company just bought 2 new pcs, 3120MT and they are 64bit windows 7 Pro. Since there's just one printer in the office, it's connected to a Windows XP Pro 32bit machine. How do I get my new pcs to print from the network to that machine?
Spoiler (Highlight to read)

Sharing from Windows XP to any newer OS might do you a problem, as the host PC's OS have drivers for older operating systems only.
The easiest way would be to share it from the Windows7 to the Windows XP
We can try setting the sharing manually by using an alternative driver, However, you will have to provide me your exact printer model in order to provide you any possible steps to try.

Printing from IE8 6 bit

I am using the 64bit version of IE8 and am unable to print anything from a web page. I googled the problem and found a solution, namely, to turn off Protected Mode in the IE security settings.
Whilst this indeed works I am uneasy about working in this mode. Is HP producing drivers for the 64 bit version of IE8?
My printer is the F2480.

There are no Vista 64 bit drivers listed. Just 32 bit.

Issues with 64 bit win 7 clients printing from 2008 R2 print server

Hello All,
I have a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 64 bit server built with a print server role. My issue is 64 bit win 7 clients cannot add a new printer. The clients see the printer in the list, starts the printer installation, get to the point of downloading the
driver & then fails ' Windows cannot connect to the printer. ' the error is 0x0000012 or 0x000003ee. Any way I try to add the new printer I get the same result. The only way I can get the printer added is to do a local printer with the full path \\servername\printer_name
and then "have disk" and point to the driver folder on the print server to get the printer added.
Anyone have any thoughts on why the 64 bit clients will not add a new printer from a 64 bit print server ?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
Please check if you can ping the print server successfully from this Windows 7 client computer. Did you encounter
the same issue when add other printers? Or just for this one printer?
Please type
regedit on Run to open Registry Editor and follow the path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\Connections and check if there has existent printer connection on the registry key.
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Can't print from IE 8 64 bit version only

I am running windows 7, 64 home premium. I have a HP c4599 all in one printer. I installed all the latest drivers/software from the HP site.
I have no problems printing from any application such as word, excel, opera, etc. I can even print from IE 8, the 32 bit version. However, if I attempt to print from IE8, the 64 bit version, when I select print and then printer and then hit print nothing happens. I don't get any error messages or anything. Nothing gets put in the queue.
Does anyone know what the issue is? Can you not print from IE 8 64 bit? It is strange that I have no issues printing from any other program.
Thanks!

Had the same problem but fixed by using other designated printer as default but printing to the same printer.
Could print a test page from new 8500 wireless printer and docs from Excel, Word etc but nothing from IE8 using the print drivers for Windows 7-64bit....decided to use old Officejet 7680 printer and it worked for all situations including IE8......compared both printer test pages and discovered the environment for the 8500 which didn't work was windows NT x86 and the environment for the 7680 that worked was windows x64.......interestingly the driver names were the same, the config file was the same and the help file was the same, etc but the data file was different too. The data file for th 8500 was hpw185g3.gpd and the data file for the 7680 was hp7600t.gpd. In other words, I select a 7680 printer software to print to the 8500 hardware.
Recommend you add a 7600 printer choice (or some other hp model) and compare printer test pages printed from the same printer .....hope it works.

Faulty, noisy grey prints from LR 2.6 64-bit, Windows 7 64-bit, HP B9180

I've been using Lightroom for about a year, and recently retired my old Windows XP 32-bit system and built a brand new AMD Quad-core Windows 7 64-bit PC. The C: drive is a brand new Kingston V+ SSD 128GB, supplemented by a 1TB SATA3 WD Caviar Black D: drive. My LR Catalog resides on the SSD C: drive (carried over from the old system), though my photo storage is on a LaCie 1TB eSATA disk. I currently have 4GB of DDR3 high-quality RAM (I do plan to add more) and run a largely trouble-free HP Photosmart Pro B9180 printer via USB 2.0 cable. My catalog and photos are all nicely intact onscreen, but I have the following problem when I use the Print Module:
Prints from Lightroom 2.6 64-bit for Win 7 (a fresh install) come out of the printer as large fields of grey noise (!) They are quite difficult to describe, but they are absolutely not a simple profile problem in any way that I can imagine. That is, the entire printed photo is grey noise (actually quite a bit of chroma noise as well on close viewing) but perfectly white borders if the print is set up for borders . If the photo has any very white highlight or very dark/black shadow areas, those portions do appear in the print as white highlights or red shadows, respectively. Other than those extreme highlight and shadow areas, the print is absolutely unrecognizable, appearing as only greyish chroma noise. ????
This problem is true for all of the follwing situations:
Whether the source file is .JPG or Canon RAW
Whether I print on Glossy Advanced or Plain Paper
Whether I print in Best, Normal, or FastDraft mode (from the printer driver)
Whether I try Application Managed Color, Printer Managed Color, or no color management at all
The one exception to this problem occurs only when I select the Draft Mode Printing checkbox in the LR Print Module and go on to print in draft mode. In this case only, I can get a recognizable print (a typical draft quality print is made without any other problems).
I do not have problems printing from Open Office, Firefox, or even full photo-output prints from Canon Digital Photo Professional of the same image files (without LR adjustments, naturally), nor did I have this problem printing in LR 2 32-bit on my old XP system (It may have been version 2.5 the last print I made, however).
I have already perfomed a "repair-install" of a freshly downloaded LR 2.6 64-bit installer, yet the problem remains. I have not yet tried to completely remove LR before reinstalling. I have not yet reinstalled my HP 64-bit printer drivers, as the problem was limited to Lightroom. Happy to post images if helpful (I'm new here, I'll have to check the rules and instructions).
Have not found anyone else with this problem in my searches. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is extremely disruptive to my workflow and revenue stream
Camron
EDIT: Photo of comparison prints: Canon DPP on left, LR 2.6 on right (same image file)

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried each idea in the order suggested. Unfortunately I have not yet solved the problem. In some circumstances, with certain paper profiles and no other color management in place, I get faulty prints but they have large areas of solid color in areas where there is a large amounts of color saturation in the original image. The faulty image below is printed to plain letter-sized paper ar Normal Quality. One clarification I wish to make is that my HP printer driver was not specifically a 64-bit driver, but rather 32-bit/64-bit driver compatable for Win 7.
I may try completely uninstalling LR before reinstalling, instead of a "repair-install" but I am still open to other suggestions.

Can not seem to print from 64 bit mac osx photoshop cs4 in landscape

we have like 5 mac computers in the building and about 20 pcs.
all the pcs and all the 32 bit macs work fine.
the 2 64 bit macs will not print in landscape only from photoshop cs4
i can print from indesign in landscape and illustrator in landscape.
somewhere i read that i could remove the preferences file and that would maybe fix it.
that did nothing.
i have tried a variety of different files and sizes.
my design artists are specialized in photoshop and it was working up to about 2 weeks ago.
nothing has changed in this time.
so i am wondering what could cause this.
please help.

What is a 64 bit Mac? It might be easier to describe the kitty version of these Macs and if all have been fully patched in system software and in programs.

I am using reader 11.0.10.32 in Win7 Professional 64 bit. I am unable to print from Reader. After selecting print all pages, the progress bar goes through the proper page count. After that a pop up window appears with the message: The document could not be printed. After pressing the OK button that pop up closes and the next pop up window appears with the message: There were no pages selected to print. After pressing the OK button, the pop up closes and the pdf document is still visible in Reader.
I can print from other programs to that printer. I can print from Reader to other printers.
I was able to print to all printers before. I uninstalled Reader and reinstalled it from the Adobe web site.
Any suggestions to make it print?
Thanks.

I have been unable to print from FF to Brother HL-1440. print generate pages w/odd bits of text from the page, and sometimes one image. If I want to print off the web, I have to print PDF. Older versions of FF print fine.

I downloaded OpenOffice and am able to print documents (in particular, the same document I created in MS Word). I guess MS Word is to blame. I believe the issue is concluded, but I'd welcome any comments about the Active Directory, as I might have a problem
with OpenOffice in the future regarding that.

Bought a new Canon MG7540 printer to replace the old HP A618. When printing vector objects from Illustrator, they look like graphics from dandy (8 bits) ... no smooth, all cubes ... if do raster than print perfectly. Who knows how to treat it? No well to rasterize vector before each printing. OS - MacOs 10.10.

Have you read the User's Guide for that printer? Odds are you will get reasonable prints. However, it is a photographic printer. That said, it should print excellent quality photographic files. To get smooth lines in Illustrator, try Preferences > Use Anti-Aliased Artwork. That will smoothen the output. If, for some reason, that does not work, try Print > Save As PDF > open PDF in Reader and print from there. Check the User's Guide for media sizes available for your particular printer. Setup your artboard to the size page you want the image to print on. Use View > Show Page Tiling ( to see where the page's printable area lies. Align the page with the artboard using the Page tool.

Designjet 500 doesn't print from Windows 7 64 bits

The problem:
We got our first Windows 7 64 bit laptop and we can't print to our Designjet 500. Windows submits the job to the printer without errors but it doesn't print and the error 61:05 is displayed on the printer's display. The printer is connected to the network infrastructure with HP Jetdirect.
Things I tried:
I tried to connect this laptop directly to the printer through USB.
I tried to print from Autocad and the Windows test page.
I tried the Windows Update drivers and the ones provided in HP's support website.
I tried all the different flavors of the Windows 7 64 bit drivers (w/ HPGL2 card; PS; Plus; 24/42 inches)
I tried to print from a 2nd W7 x64 laptop that I got temporarily just to troubleshoot this issue.
Conclusion:
All 32 bit OS's print as expected. None of the new W7 64 bit systems print. None of the things I tried made a difference, the job is sent to the printer and the error is always the same.
Any ideas to go on from here?

This forum is focused on consumer level products. For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP Designjet forum here.

Why can't i print from 64 bit ie9?

i have a photosmart premium with fax (c309a). it won't print from 64 bit ie9. i'm running 64 bit win7.

HI,
It should be able to use these devices together, how exactly are you trying to print? using airprint or one off the HP apps? And is your printer connected in a network? And is this the same network as the ipad?
