Printing Photo problems with HP8500 + Win7 (64) bit.

I'm having major headaches with not bring able to print correctly with the HP8500.  All my pictures are coming out darker then they should be.  I'm using the windows 7 drivers but no color control.
I tried to put in different drivers from other printers but the only one that installed correctly in Windows 7 is Photosmart C309n but the printing comes out the same.
I can't seem to get colors correct.  everything looks fine until it tries to print to the 8500.  I tried using 4 different photo software. 
With the win7 drivers there is a color management tab but no ICC profile is associated with it.
I'm using all things HP in this system including paper/ink.
can anyone point me in the right direction.

FYI, I've been having  problems with Win7/64bit and HP8500dn.  Here's the official response I received from HP  "Please be informed that, For Windows 7 PC, the printer driver for this model is not available".

    I have successfully installed it immediately after OS installation. But today, i have decided to deinstall it and go for Oracle 10g version for 32 bit.
    Everything went normal during installation, but i can see the services is not present in services.msc. Also its throwing some exception for dbca, netca
    Now i tried to deinstall it and again go for 11g. But even the same story here..

    SaqibNo need to install a fresh OS. That's like tearing your house down just because you wired a lamp wrong and blew a circuit breaker.
    There are MeaLink notes on how to eradicate an Oracle install from Windows, but it boils down to this:
    Stop all Oracle services
    In the registery:
    - Delete all oracle services from the register (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
    - Delete the entire Oralce folder from HKLM\Software
    reboot
    Delete the ORACLE_HOME directory and any other Oracle related directories/files. Offhand, it seems like there is an Oracle directory under Program Files.
    reboot

  • IPhone 3GS SYnc problems with Windows 7 64 Bit

    I am having sync problems with windows 7 64 Bit.
    The iPhone syncs a few tracks then hangs, a few minutes later itunes tells me the iphone has timed out.
    Anyone have any ideas about this. I have tried different USB ports, cleaned the apple USB cable contacts with Servisol, restored the iPhone and reinstalled itunes.
    iPhone and iTunes are latest versions.
    Thanks
    Joe

    "Try this connect the iPhone, let the mtp driver installation fail, then go into the device manager and uninstall the unknown mtp device. If you then scan for new hardware from the device manager it should recognize the iPhone & update the driver."
    Ok here's what I did:
    1) Connect the iPhone (iTunes had been installed)
    2) No MTP driver installation is happening as Windows detects iPhone successfully
    3) Open Device Manager
    4) There seems to be 2 drivers for iPhone that are active now, although I still can't see which one is the MPT driver you're referring to.
    One of them sits under Portable Devices: "Apple iPhone". If I view the details of this driver, it lists the following files:
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdMtpDr.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\WUDFRd.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtpUS.dll
    The other one sits under Universal Serial Bus controllers: "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". And as indicated by Joe above, it lists the following files when I view the Details:
    - C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\usbaapl64.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\usbaaplrc.dll

  • Print photo book with billing and shipping addresses in different countries

    I live in the U.S. and would like to create photo books for family living in Europe. Rather than sending the book myself to Europe after having it first printed in the U.S. and shipped to me in the U.S., I would like to simply submit the book to the Apple print service in the country it is destined to anyway.
    Unfortunately, the Apple print service bases the country in which the order is fulfilled solely on the billing address of the credit card used, i.e. U.S. in my case. In addition, one can not choose a shipping country other than the country of the billing address.
    Has anyone else found a way around this limitation?

    I can't offer a way around, but at least for me in Europe it doesn't seem to be a problem: I have had Aperture books sent to England whilst the bill comes to me in Switzerland. I think I read once that quite a lot of Apple's European printing is done in Holland, maybe that makes a difference.
    More generally I do find Apple's way of dealing with international customers a bit irritating - I can only order software through the Swiss Apple-store in French or German...

  • Epson R2880 printer driver problems with Snow Leopard

    I’m running 10.6.4 on a new Mac mini and I’m trying to print to a new Epson R2880. If I let the system choose the printer driver in the print and fax utility, I get a sort of generic print dialogue box without many options, but it prints. If I go into the print and fax utility and manually choose the driver, I get a different print dialog box with all the appropriate print options. I checked and it matches the screen shots for this printer that are posted on the Epson site, so I feel sure this the correct driver. However, when I try to print with this driver, I get this error message. Error:/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpll.app/Contents /MacOS/rastertoescpll failed.
    This seems to be a common problem with Snow Leopard and the R2880 Epson printers, and it seems that most people are able to solve it by deleting the printer from the printer queue and resetting the printer queue. But that hasn’t solved my problem.
    Here’s what I’ve done:
    Manually deleted the Epson folder from the hard drive and trashed it, repaired disk permissions, uninstalled the Epson driver, updated software, downloaded and installed the Apple/Epson driver, deleted the printer from the print queue, and reset the printer queue. I’ve done all of these things several times over. And still I get the same error message every time I try to print from the driver with the print options. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a fix?

    Some of the previous users had success when they restarted after deleting the /Library/Printers/EPSON and /Library/Caches/Epson folders. You might also try deleting the /Library/Cache folder. There is a solution posted from someone at Epson:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10909012#10909012
    Substitute 2880 for RX580:
    Make sure that you have completely removed the Stylus Photo RX580 driver, then install the new driver from System Update:
    1. Power off the printer
    2. Open System Pref. and Print/Fax
    3. Highlight the RX580 printer
    4. Click on the ""-"" sign
    5. Close Print and Fax
    6. Open your Mac's Hard Drive
    7. Open the Library Folder
    8. Open Printer and delete the EPSON Folder
    9. Open the PPDs folder find the Epson Stylus Photo RX580.gz and delete the file
    10. Close the PPD and the Printer folder
    ->11. In the Library folder, open the Caches Folder
    ->12. Delete the Epson folder
    ->13. Restart the Mac
    14. Power on the printer
    15. Click on the Apple Icon and System Update
    16. Follow the directions to install the new driver
    Hope this helps.

  • HP Smart Web Printing feature, problem with IE7 and FireFox3

    "HP Smart Web Printing" problem with Internet Explorer 7 and FireFox 3I have a laptop that came with: Windows Vista Home Premium, Internet Explorer 7, FireFox 1.9. Everything worked fine.
    Recently I bought a "HP Photosmart C4580 All-in-One" printer that came with a free software "HP Smart Web Printing".
    Smart Web Printing worked fine with FireFox 1.9 browser. I liked it very much, because with it, I could print only the portions from the web page that I want, thus saving on inks. It really does more than that.
    With IE 7, Smart Web Printing was a disaster. IE 7 stopped working. Every time I closed a web browser window, IE7 would stop working and start all over again. It happened all the time.
    On suggestion from Microsoft Windows help desk I "Reset IE Setting". This solved the IE 7 problem , but it also removed the Smart Web Printing feature.
    Next, one day I downloaded latest version of FireFox browser "FireFox 3". Once again I lost the Smart Web Printing Feature, because it was not compatible with FireFox 3.
     Now here I am with no "Smart Web Printing" feature at all.
     Any suggestion how can I get "Smart Web Printing" feature back. I love the feature
    Thanks

    March 27th 2009 I've just downloaded HP Smart Web Print onto an HP a6500f desktop system running Vista-64.  I first installed it as a limited user and I get no icon in the IE7 taskbar.  I examined the manage add-ons dialog and it was installed but the toolbar configuration has no control icon for SWP icon.
    Then I logged off and logged on as a privileged user and downloaded again and tried to install.  This 2nd installation actually REMOVED my first installation.
    So I then downloaded for a third time and installed and it finished installing but there was no SWP icon in the tool bar.  I examined the Manage Add-Ons dialog and saw one in there on the left side.  I transfered the inactive icon to the active side of the dialog and then I immediately had TWO SWP icons in the task bar. (*mumble grumble*).  So I removed one and all is OK now as long as I use the IE7 as a privileged user. 
    If I go back to being a limited user (not an unreasonable thing to do is it?) I don't have an SWP icon.  Trying to install SWP application again only cause it to want to remove the existing installation.
    I'm not very impressed with this behavior. 
    Is there anything that can be done to get SWP to work for limited users?

  • Default printer and problem with printing Crystal Report

    Good morning
    I have SAP B1 and on the client the default printer is "AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO"
    Then i have another printer "AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv".
    Before the default printer were the "AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv".
    Now the default printer is "AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO".
    When i push the button "Print" in the menu bar to print for example an invoice, instead of printing on the default printer AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO is always printing on then AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv.
    The report to print was made with Crystal Report 2008 and on the report I also set the correct default printer (AMM_4014DN_PCL6_domain-srv FRONTE-RETRO).
    So what's the problem ? Why is continue to print to the older printer ?
    So i also delete the older printer (AMM_4014DN_PS_domain-srv) and very strange still printing on the old printer.
    I also shut down the client, but no effect.
    The operating system of the client is Win Vista and SAP B1 is host on a Win2008 server.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Flash player 11.0.1.152 installation problem with Windows Vista 64-Bit

    Hello,
    I just can't get Flash Player to install on my computer with Windows Vista 64-Bit - doesnt matter if I try with Firefox, Opera or IE (I usually use Firefox).
    The download isn't a problem, but when I start the downloaded .exe, this file just disappears from my download folder and nothing happens - besides starting a process called install_flashplayer11x32_mssd_aih_3.exe, which does nothing. The usual installation popup never appears. After that I can't try starting the installation again, until disabling the process via task manager ("Only a single instance of this application may run"). Doesn't matter if I try the download and installation with or without "McAffe Security Plus" btw - same result.
    I never had such a problem before - Flash Player 10.3 was and is no problem to install and use.
    I have tried all the measures suggested in the troubleshooting section on the official site, including the advanced troubleshooting measures (uninstall old version, run as administrator, disabling software firewalls, disabling virus scanner etc.). Nothing helps.
    I don't got those problems with my laptop running Windows 7 - just my desktop computer with Vista 64-Bit.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try using the installers from the links in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550

  • Error Message: "Printer Failure" Problem with print or ink system . . .

    Greetings!
    I wasn't exactly sure where to post this, but the error message refers to printer or ink system failure so I thought this was a good place. I've been troubleshooting my parents HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 AiO for the last 2 or 3 hours with little success. I've contacted HP tech support but they wanted $200 for the work to be done and neither I nor my parents, who are retired and on a fixed income, have the money to spare.
    The tech support people said it was probably a problem with the drivers, so I attempted to reinstall the software, but that didn't help at all. A brief description of the problem might shed some light on this awful situation. Since this morning, my father tried to print something and the printer itself gave the following error message on the front LCD panel on the device itself (ie, not on Windows, but on the printer's display):
        "Printer Failure
         There is a problem with the printer or ink system. Turn it off, then on. If the problem persists, contact HP."
    Obviously my first course of action was to follow the directions. I turned it off, unplugged the cord, waited approx. 30 seconds, replugged it in and turned it back on. Nothing changed. I've also tried removing and replacing the Ink cartridges, checking the tray for a paper jam or shortage and performing a rain dance in the hopes of attracting the gods' attention xP. In short, I'm at my wits end and don't know where to go from here.
    I'm unable to access the device's LCD display control panel, which controls the printer, as the error message cannot be closed. I've tried restarting the PC as well, and a lot of other basic deductive troubleshooting procedures to no avail (forgive my overuse of cliches).
    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much in advance. I wish you all a great day, and may the god of printing protect you from the same situation. I can assure you it's most unpleasant.
    Regards, Sean (frosztbyte)
    P.S. I'm not sure what other information might be needed in order to help me, but ask and you shall receive any I can find.

    Hi frosztbyte,
    I understand your parents have an OfficeJet Pro 8600 that is saying it has a printer failure, that you have thus far not been able to clear, despite your best effort and a rain dance (at least I know who to blame for the rain now ). I would be happy to help you as best I can!
    The first thing I'd suggest you do is plug the printer directly to a wall outlet if it isn't already plugged to one, just to ensure the printer is getting all the power it needs to function properly. If that doesn't seem to change anything though, please have a look through this A 'Printer Failure' Message That Might Include an '0x610000f6' or '0x61xxxxxx' Error Code Displays o... document (it was steps for the same error without an error code as well) and hopefully it can help resolve the issue.
    If the issue persists after trying the wall outlet and that document I would advise you try call HP again. I believe the number you called previously may have not have been HP, but another company. If you're in North America just call 1-800-474-6836, and if you're anywhere else have a look at this Contact HP Worldwide page to see what number to call for your area.
    Hope this helps, have a great day!!

  • VGA beamer problems with Windows 7 64-bit enterprise on MacBook Air 2012

    For us the following problem is solved now! It might help other people with the same problems.
    At our institute we have two new MacBook Airs 5.2 (2012) running Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise under Boot Camp.
    They both cannot used for Windows-presentations with VGA beamers by using the mini-DP-to-VGA adapter (with Mac OS X 10.7 it just works fine).  First of all, the suggestions from Apple phone support were not of any help at all (try PRAM reset, try SMC reset, ...). We tried an external USB-3.0-graphics adapter made by SUNIX (it failed, probably since Apple blocks other graphic cards in the EFI).
    Then we saw the following article, which describes the same problems with a Dell XPS, but also using the Apple mini-DP-to-VGA adapter:
    http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=reviews/dell-xp-mini-displayport-projector-fi x
    We finally bought a "Mini-DisplayPort to VGA Active Video Adapter" from StarTech.com (product ID: MDP2VGAW) ...
    AND IT WORKS!
    Quintessence: Apple mini-DP-to-VGA adapter is too crappy for the (probably always behind) Windows.

    Hello again,
    After speaking to an Apple Genius, it seems the solution was to update the firmware for the Cinema Display. Since I have done this, the monitor appears to behave better.

  • Printing layout problem with Lightroom CC 2015 Release

    Hello,
    I am working with the following configuration :
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)
    OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC 2015 Release
    EPSON Stylus Pro 3880
    I tried to print two images on a Super A3 paper sheet with an EPSON Stylus Pro 3880 directly from Lightroom and here is an example of what I expected (I resized and added a black border for better visibility on the forum):
    This is the preview I have in the printing module of Lightroom and this is also what I have when I print to a JPEG file with Lightroom.
    Sadly, after I launched the printing job, this is what came out of the printer:
    As we can see, the layout of the two pictures has been shifted toward the top of the paper sheet (cropping the top of the first image in the process) and about 30% of the right part of the layout has not been printed.
    Do you have any idea of what I am doing wrong here?
    For your information, I do not print very often so I am not 100% sure that I set everything correctly. However, I have been successfully printing in the past and it was with the same MacBook Pro on the same EPSON Stylus Pro 3880 printer but it was with OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1 and with Lightroom 5.x (I cannot remember exactly which version).
    Moreover, because my print was urgent, I retried with a Windows machine running Lightroom 4.x with the same printer and it was a success. So I doubt that my initial settings on my MacBook Pro were wrong although I am not 100% sure.

    I am in France and I found out that EPSON is providing at least two different files for its v9.33 driver that relate to the Stylus Pro 3880 with OSX:
    epson16738.dmg: US version (https://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?UseCookie=yes&oid=141552&prodoid =63085147&infoType=Downloads&d…)
    epson379436eu.dmg: French version (Support et téléchargements - Epson Stylus Pro 3880 - Epson)
    and I realize that I was using the US driver which.
    After few minutes of refection, I realized that the 3880 driver that I installed on my MacBook pro was the only piece that was present when my prints failed and absent when my prints succeeded. So I though it had found out the cause of my problems until I tried with the french driver (epson379436eu.dmg)...
    In the meantime Adobe has release of new version of lightroom so let me recap my new configuration:
    MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)
    OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3
    Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC 2015.0.1 [ 1018573 ] (info available in Help menu > System info > Lightroom version)
    EPSON Stylus Pro 3880
    Epson driver v9.33 epson379436eu.dmg
    ... and the result of my test is ... nothing at all! Lightroom sends the the print job to the printer but nothing comes out of it.
    However, when I printed to a file from lightroom and then tried to print this file with OS X Preview on the Epson 3880, it worked perfectly.
    It also worked when I printed from Photoshop CC (2014.2.2).
    It also worked when I printed from Lightroom but with a different printed and driver (Canon MF8580Cdw).
    Therefore, among the five elements of my configuration cited above, there is none for which the printing job is always failing. It is hard to find out what is the faulty piece of software!

  • Adobe Prof 7 problems with Windows 7 - 64 bit

    My laptop crashed and I just purchased a new comptuer with Windows 7 - 64 bit.  Now have 2 problems with Adobe:
    #1 When I right click on a web site to save as PDF, it won't work. There is no error, no response.  Just doesn't do anything
    #2 If I go to a web site requireing Adobe Flash Player Installer and I click to install it... nothing happens.
    Please help!
    Thanks Mary

    Adobe Acrobat 7 surely isn't supported in Windows 7. Heck the newest version probably isn't either (I haven't checked).
    That being said, right-clicking to save a file doesn't involve Acrobat and neither does installing Flash Player.

  • Printing Photo Book with 101+ Pages

    Sorry if this has been previously posted, but I could not find anything on this topic. Does anyone know of an online service that will print a photo book with more than 100 pages? I have a photo book I have created in PS6 to commemorate my parents trip to Europe for their 50th anniversary. All that time and effort and then I find out Kodak will only print up to 80 pages! I would really appreciate any suggestions on this!
    Thanks

    Thanks Trish. My book is actually 140 pages & viovio only goes to 120. At this point, guess I will look at deleting 20 pages (tough!) and using them. They seem to be the best option so far!
