Printing Issues with HP OfficeJet 100 and Windows 8.1

We use HP OfficeJet 100 mobile printers and have a printing issue.When we print the printer acts as if it is going to print and then prints one blank page.Printer will not print even though it is showing as default printer.Printer will just stop printing in the middle of a document, even in the middle of printing out a page. We are printing via the USB cableWe are using Windows 8.1We are connecting to laptopsWe have been using the HP mobile range of printers since 2004 and have only experienced these issues since we moved the laptops onto Windows 8/8.1 We have:Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drivers – this fixed this issue for a short while and then it reappeared againCalled HP support and they directed us to the driver support page which had the latest print drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers with them on the phone. This initially fixed the problem and then it returned a few days laterAfter trawling the support forums found directions to change the print processor to “WinPrint” – No effect as the processor was already on this settingDownloaded the HP diagnostic tool – HP Print and Scan Doctor – didn’t fix anything Any further help would be much appreciated.

Hello there Lawrence, Welcome to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I noticed your post about the troubles you are running into when you attempt to install your OJ 6100 printer on your Windows 8.1 laptop. I read all of your attempts and seen you have tried several methods to try and get the installation to complete successfully.
I would like to make some suggestions that may help. Let me know how it goes!
1. Check that Internet Explorer pop-up blockers are turned off before downloading the installer
Internet Explorer Pop-up Blocker: How do I turn off Pop-up Blocker?
Try to install
2. If you're running McAfee Live Safe or any other firewall, please temporarily disable the "real time scanning".
How to disable realtime scans
Try the install
3. Go to the start screen (you may also press the windows key + R to open the run box) and type %WINDIR% this should show the windows folder.
Click on the folder and scroll until you see files. Look for a filed named "HPWINS*.DAT" (the * is for a number that varies) remove this file and try the installation.
Try the install
Enjoy your Monday!

  • Incomplete print jobs with HP Officejet v40 and Windows 7

    I've seen this problem posted but no solution yet.  I have upgraded my laptop to a Windows 7 and my trusty old HP Officejet v40 will not print a complete page.  It worked great with XP.  The drivers are supposedly updated.  Please help! Thanks.

    Same problem here, using an HP OfficeJet v40 under Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit.
    The device works superb under Win XP, there's no problem at all with the hardware. Also, it is listed on the Windows7 compatibility list (also for 64Bit) and reported as fully supported by the new OS.
    As suggested on the HP download page, I installed the driver automatically via Windows Update. The device gets recognised as an OfficeJet v30 model, the printer part needs a second update attempt but is then successfully installed as the other device parts.
    Problem: Any printouts come out incomplete and the spooler reports an error. Changing the driver manually to the correct v40 model (can also be done via Windows Update) doesn't change this behaviour.
    During installation there are quite a few error recorded by windows, and with some of the spooler print errors, there was an event ID 372 triggered. The error code returned by the print processor (Param 10) is 2147500037, Param11 simply says "Unknown Error" - maybe this helps identifying what the issue is.
    If I had to guess I'd say it's a driver problem. I also ran the HP Print Diagnostics Utility, which didn't report any problems with the printer. There is a number of message boards around the Net where quite a lot of people ask for a solution to this particular problem. None of the inofficial suggestions I found there (like restarting the spooler service, or bypassing the spooler entirely) helped.
    I'm aware that this particular model is probably no longer fully supported by HP. However, it's still a great device for me which I'd like to use on one of my workstations. I also think at least the basic functions should work when the device is supposed to be compatible with Windows 7.
    It would be great if someone from HP Support could advise what to do here, thanks.

  • Wireless printing problem with hp officejet 100 mobile printer from win 7 dell laptop

    My hp officejet 100 mobile printer was working fine with my dell XPS 15 in bluetooth wirelessly until my laptop crashed. Now I can not get it to print internet info except with hard wire connection. Page loads half way and then stops. Must shut down laptop and shut off printer or hard wire and shut off bluetooth. down loaded lastest drivers to no avail. printer will print from cell phone and win 8 computer via bluetooth but not win 7 laptop.

    Sorry you are having problems with printing from the internet.  I have a few more questions to ask you before I can be of much assistance.
    What web-browser are you using?  
    Do you have any problems printing from Word or other non-internet documents?  
    What did you do to fix your computer (system restore, clean install of the OS, etc)?  
    Have you tried an alternate web-browser?
    Make sure to install all of your Microsoft updates to see if that helps.  Otherwise, answer those questions for me please and I will be happy to help.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.
    Every problem has a solution!

  • Borderless Printing issues with HP Officejet 4500

    I have created a document using Microsoft word 2007 and am having trouble printing this document without borders. I have a HP Officejet 4500 which does support borderless printing. I have gone into properties when getting ready to print and made sure to check the borderless box. I am still left with a small 1/8 inch border around the entire page. I tried the shortcuts and selected brochures with the same results. I also tried changing the settings through word. I went into page set up and made the margins "0.0" on both sides as well as the top and bottom of the page. It still prints with borders. What am I missing???? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Having the same issue. I tried to print boderless from many different programms and with all settings I could choose. I get out a full photo or document after maybe 20 prints. Everytime the printer wants to print at least 2 pages, stops printing after 10-50% and restarts again.
    I really would like to hear back from HP.

  • Issue with HP Photosmart 5520 and Windows XP laptop

    Hi there,
    Was hoping for some help.
    I have a HP Photosmart 5520 which is setup correctly on my wireless network has been working for some time. 
    There are a few laptops on the network that can print to it fine, including my Asus, which is running Windows 7.
    At this moment in time, my housemates laptop, a HP running Windows XP is unable to connect to the printer. It was working fine however after a virus and malware scan discovered heaps of malicious software, which was removed, the laptop was unable to print. It still had the printer as listed but it seems the actual print job wasn't being sent to the printer.
    As mentioned earlier, I am still able to print fine from this laptop.
    From here I have removed the printer from the HP laptop, along with the software. This was so I could attempt to reinstall the printer on the laptop. Now, when I try to reintall the printer, upon selecting the Wireless option it doesn't appear to be able to find the printer. This printer is setup on a static IP, so I've typed in the IP and it still appears that the laptop just can not find the printer.
    I have attempted everything but nothing seems to want to work. I know XP is a dead operating system but the house mate has no choice but to use it for now.
    Is there any suggestions? I don't know if it's the printer or the laptop.
    Look forward to any replies, and thank you in advance.
    Kindest Regards,
    Michael.

    Welcome to the HP Forums Rectrix,
    I see by your post that you are able to find the printer over the wireless network on the Windows XP computer.
    I can help you with this issue today.
    Install the printer as a USB connection on the Windows XP to get the software fully installed.
    Then setup the wireless by going to start, all programs, HP, select the printer, select Printer Setup & Software Selection,
    select Convert a USB connected printer to wireless. Follow the steps to finish setting up the wireless connection.
    If there is anything else that I can help you with just let me know.
    Have a nice day.
    Thank You.

  • Wierd issue with Sound Blaster Z and Windows 8.1

    I have just started having an issue with my sound card. For the past year it has been working perfectly fine with no issues. There have been no recent changes to the computer, but within the past week, if I am in the middle of a game or listening to music, the computer will once a day lock up, I then have to restart the computer. After it restarts, the right speakers, and only the right will not work, Center, Subwoofer, and Left side speakers work 5.0. I then go the Sound Blaster Z-series control panel and re-enable the surround sound. At this point the Center and Subwoofer cease to work, but the right side works perfectly fine. After a couple of resets the center and subwoofer still do not work. I then have to go to the back of the computer and change the cable for the center / subwoofer from left most to the second left most (as looking at the back of computer from the top side). It will work fine this way with all speakers working, for roughly a day then it will lock up again. I have to go through the same process, but move the cable from the second left most to the left most output for it to work again. I tried for the past two days to troubleshoot by removing all the software and creative drivers. Same issue after reinstalling with a fresh driver set. Any help, because this is completely annoying.
    System Stats:
    ASUS P6T Deluxe Motherboard
    Intel Core i7 965 CPU
    Corsair Dominator 3x2 GB
    Intel 520 SSD 120 GB
    Samsung Evo 840 SSD 250 GB
    WD 500 GB (x2)
    XFX Radeon HD 7770 (X2)
    Sound Blaster Z
    Windows 8.1 Pro 64 Bit
    Thank You,

    Considering that there is already a ca0132 driver for linux, which was made to support chromebook pixel laptop. It should not be hard for creative to make that driver compatible with discrete cards and motherboards that make use of that chip. But Creative seriously dropped the ball on users and does not care about them. I do not understand this, because all previous creative cards are supported in linux. Steam OS and steam boxes are around the corner and Creative is missing a big opportunity.

  • Any known issues with Flash player 9 and windows 2003 compatibility?

    Hi guys..
    Is there any known compatibility problem with running flash
    applications
    on Windows 2003 Server?
    My application runs just so well with Windows XP
    yet it throws a 2015 bitmap error
    when it is being run on the windows 2003 server.
    (Not quite often but often enough. the only difference is the
    operating
    system)
    Is there any known issue about this?
    Or could there be any compatibility problem with flash player
    and
    windows 2003?
    Any hints would be deeply appreciated...
    Thank you...

  • Iphone e print/air print issues with HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier All-in-One A909n

    I downloaded the 4.2 upgrade for iphone thinking I would be able to print from my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Premier All-In-One A909n.  I have upgraded the HP firmware.  I have turned my printer on and off.  I get an error message that says "No printer found."  I am not able to contact HP due to my warranty being expired--even though I bought the extended warranty from the store.  Please help.  Thanks!

    This printer is listed here:

    has offering eprint.  However, some community messages say that it does not work.
    I have not been able to get an email address set up for the printer, or to figure out whether or not it is web services enabled.  
    It does not have the icon on the touch screen that is shown in the hp instructions.
    Any clues out there?

  • Printing Issues with HP Officejet J4580

    Howdy
    I can not print to my HP Officejet J4580. The printer itself does work as I have run a test on it.
    Any data I send appears on the print queue, but that is all. Nothing happens on the printer end. Also, when attempting to scan, using Preview or PDF Pen, no joy either.

    Thanks Klaus
    I tried that but no joy. Data actually arrives at the print queue and then disappears, as if the job has been completed. However, nothing happens.

  • Printer error with HP Laserjet 6L and Windows 7

    I have an old but still functional HP Laserjet 6L (from the late 1990s), which is connected to a new computer running Windows 7 via USB. Windows 7 found the necessary drivers, but I am having frequent printer errors come up in the Printer queue, and the machine refuses to print. The problem is 'solved' when I restart my PC, and the document then prints. However this is a pain, and I obviously don't want to have to restart every time I want to print.
    I would be very grateful for any advice on this. Thanks.

    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at: http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-and-Digital-Imaging/ct-p/bsc-412

  • Printing issue with HP LaserJet 4300 and iMac 10.9

    Hi,
    I am trying to set up a HP LaserJet 4300 printer with my iMac 10.9.
    Printer installs fine, at least all appears to be fine but when trying to print a page, couple of pages comes out all with strange characters across the whole page.
    Tried uninstalling and installing printer again but no succes.
    Printer is on Windows 2003 server. Cuople of windows machines connected to the printer, they print fine.
    Any suggestions?

    The page looks perfect in preview and as a PDF. I can't print from the PDF, however, because it shrinks the text and expands the margins ...
    Something's fishy. Save as PDF should result a file that looks exactly, precisely, like what you'd get if you printed directly to your printer.
    I suspect your Word document has been corrupted by a few bytes of random data that is causing your printer to go nuts. Try cutting that portion out of the document, and pasting it in a new blank document so you can incrementally isolate the damage.
    This isn't going to be as easy as it sounds, because when the PostScript printer driver encounters the errant code in the Word document, it's essentially telling the printer "now, go to the top of this page, print a nasty black smudge, and then crash." You might have to cut a whole page before and after the suspected corruption. If you're lucky you might be able to cut the portion then paste it right back as "unformatted text". Try that.

  • Issues with Dynadock 3.0 and Windows 8

    My setup is as follows:
    Toshiba Satellite C875 laptop
    Windows 8 (64bit)
    Toshiba Dynadock u3.0 (brand new)
    Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft) USB3.0 drivers
    Intel HD graphics 4000
    Installed 'DisplayLink USB Graphics Software for Windows' 7.1 M0 21DEC2012
    When I plug the dynadock in, the keyboard and mouse work, but there is no display on the monitor. There is no Displaylink icon in the system tray even when I plug the dock in. I have a monitor plugged into the dvi connector in the dynadock.
    The Displaylink software is installed correctly and the service is running. In device manager->USB Display Adapters, there are two items, DisplayLink Display Adapter (4305) and dynadock U3.0.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Displaylink software several times and nothing I do seems to produce an icon in the system tray. (I'm checking when the dynadock is plugged in)
    I have the latest USB3.0 drivers installed.
    I have plugged the dynadock into a USB2.0 slot and a USB3.0 slot and same result. It appears that the software is installed correctly, but I can not get the display to work, nor even see the DisplayLink icon.
    I know the dynadock is working because the display works fine on a windows 7 machine.
    I contacted DisplayLink with this and they said it is a firmware issue on the dynadock.
    Any thoughts on what's going on would be appreciated.

    The DisplayLink people are misinformed. There are no firmware updates for the Dynadock. Check this website and go to Product Support. Click on Laptop Accessories and click on Dynadock and finally click on your model of Dynadock. See any firmware updates? Me neither.
    Check your settings. Make sure the DVI monitor is turned on and plugged into the Dynadock. Make sure the Dynadock is turned on and plugged into the computer and THEN turn on the computer. Check the Control Panel and click on Display and then Screen Resolutions. It should show two monitors.
    If you're still not getting any display on the DVI monitor, make sure you are using the latest video driver. In this case DisplayLink will have the latest driver. The Toshiba people will need to test the DisplayLink drivers first before they put it up on their website.

  • Compatibility issue with itunes 10.6 and windows 7

    I just installed the update to itunes 10.6 on windows 7 64bit, and it says that it is not compatible with my theme (so it switches it back to the windows 7 basic) I normally wouldn't mind however my screen blacks out and it's really annoying. I don't have any compatbility settings checked off at the moment. However I did try changing them and it still doesnt work.
    Itunes worked just fine before the update...

    Okay. Sometimes that can indicate a stuck registry key.

  • Issue with Bootcamp 5.0 and Windows 7: Ultimate 64-Bit Install

    HERE are the specifications of my iMac.
    I am trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate 64x on a 150GB partition i created using bootcamp 5.0.  I get to the point where it finalizes the windows setup, and then it says "Setup Up Desktop for first use" or something of that nature, it restarts then, and goes straight to a black screen with a black cursor.  I have tried to get to the BIOS to change the boot order (thinking it may be something to do with the boot order) but I won't even let me access that!  Any fixes would help a lot!!
    I was using parallels before this, but I want a seperate partition so I can play games that are too high demanding (graphics wise) to run in a VM, the crash on start every time. Some run, but very choppily.
    Also, I am running the latest edition of mountain Lion if that helps...

    Acro 7 is not compatible with Win 7. In your case there are no upgrades. You need to buy a full version of Acro XI. The minimum version to be eligible for upgrade pricing is Acro 8.
