Printing to CD with Windows 8.1

I have an HP Photosmart D5460 printer and recently purchased a laptop with Windows 8.1. After updating the drivers and software I am unable to find anything that will point me to the print on printable CD function of the D5460. The installation CD that came with the printer cannot be used with Windows 8.1 so the software to print to CD is missing. Nowhere in the new Photo Creations software are CD's even mentioned. Is there software available to continue to use all the functions of the D5400 series in Windows 8.1?
This question was solved.

Hi, there is no HP software for printing to a CD under Windows 8.
You will need to use 3rd party software.

I would like to buy a HP printer that works with Windows 8 preview.

Understand that HP will not release drivers for existing printers until August at earliest and that is OK....I have 3 HP Laserjet 1020s that have been great and will buy a new HP printer if it will work now with Windows 8 preview. Any suggestions or any fixes/patches for 1020 that work. Also interested in any non-HP printers that work with Windows 8 preview? Prefer HP but will buy first printer that works from any mfg. as I would like to give Windows 8 a real try. Believe HP is missing boat by not putting a patch out for some of their printers as soon as possible as I am not the only HP user looking to buy any printer that works with Windows 8.

HP LaserJet 1320 Duplex Printing Not working with Windows 7

Hi
I've just bought a new PC with Windows 7 Home Premium. I have an HP LaserJet 1320 printer (Prod no. Q5927A, SN CNGW53RLRY).
I cannot find driver that works the same way as the previous driver HP LaserJet PCL5. If I use this driver and can still get duplex printing but it will only print one copy at a time.
If I upgrade to HP Universal Printing PLC (or PLC v5) I can print multiple copies but not duplex printing. I have searched high and low through the HP site but to no avail.
Any help and advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks
GB

Hello,
I've seen this same issue with my printers (other HP printers) whereby the default setting to support the Duplexing hardware was set to 'off'.
A quick method to check this is look at what the setting is for Duplex hardware in the Device Settings tab, and if it's not set, correct it.
Printer Properties:
From the 'Start' orb -> [Devices & Printers] -> right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printer Properties' -> click on 'Device Settings' tab.
You should see a dialog similar to the mine (attached): look for the 'Duplex unit (for 2-sided printing)' and see if it's set to "Not Installed":
--> in either case, click on 'Not installed' and from the dropdown box, select 'Installed'... Click 'OK' to accept the changes and close the dialog.
Printing Preferences:
again, right click on your Printer icon -> select 'Printing Preferences' -> click on 'Advanced' tab.
-->Check to see if there is a 'Duplex Hardware' or '2-sided printing' option in here: mine doesn't show one but thougth I'd mention it nonetheless.
Click on the 'Finishing' tab and select 'Print on both sides'...or simply test print a multi-page document and set those preferences on-the-fly.
Let me know if this helps...

If the printer was installed previously then you would not detect new hardware when plugging the printer in. Go to Start, Control Panel, Printers and check for an existing Deskjet 900 series printer. If this printer exists in the list double click on it and check to see if the printer is shown as offline or paused. If so correct the issue by clicking the appropriate line.
If the printer does not show as installed then install it as shown here. If this does not correct the issue then unplug the USB cable, then go to the device manager and delete the ports associates with the USB printer and allow the system to rediscover the USB devices.

HP B500 Wireless Bluethooth Adapter for HP Printer Not Working With Windows 8.1

I have been using the HP BT500 bluetooth Wireless adapter to print wirelessly to my HP Officejet Pro 8500 printer. I have been using Windows Vista, but recently upgraded to Windows 8.1. I learned after the upgrade that the HP B500 wireless bluetooth adapter is not compatable with Windows 8.1. I have attempted to find a driver upgrade for the B500, but there does not appear to be one available. I have also searched the HP site and other sites in an attempt to locate an alter wireless blotth adapter to replace the B500, but have again been unable to locate one.
Is there a wireless bluetooth apter that will allow me to print wirelessly to my HP Office Pro 8500 from my laptop?

Hi @Raider83,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I noticed that your HP B500 wireless bluetooth adapter for your HP Officejet 8500 is not working with Windows 8.1. I am sorry to hear this but happy to look into this for you!
I am not sure if you are using a 32-bit or 64-bit Operating System. But sometimes with Windows 8.1 you can use compatibility mode to install an older version of the driver. Which might help the situation. Here is a link to some other Windows drivers, HP bt500 Bluetooth USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter Drivers.
Once you got a driver downloaded, follow this guide, Make older programs compatible with this version of Windows, on how to install it using compatibility mode. It is not guaranteed to work, but it is worth a try!
If you still need me to look for other bluetooth adapters, please respond with your printer's Product/Model Number. To find your printer's Product/Model Number follow instructions in this link. Finding Your HP Product Model Number. As there are multiple HP Officejet 8500 printers.
Thank you for posting, and have a nice day!

Is there a way to make my HP 6400 printer/fax compatible with WIndows 8.1?

I have tried to install my printer software for my HP all-in-one 6400, but have gotten a message that it is not compatible with Windows 8.1. Is there any type of "patch" or anyhting I can do short of purchasing a new printer?

Hi alaineRN,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
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 Commercial Forums.

Acrobat 7.0 Printer port problem with windows 7.0?

I installed adbobe acrobat 7.0 standard on my new computer (windows 7.0), and I get this message: "warning 20225 adobe 7.0 ws unanle to setup adobe printer port." Does acrobat 7.0 work with windows 7.0?

If you are able to open Acrobat and Distiller, then you may be able to create a work-around. If the Adobe PDF printer was created, but not the port, then change the port to a "print-to-file" setting. Then open Distiller and setup a watched folder that you would print the file to. When you print the file, you may have to set the file extension to PS rather than the default PRN. The file would be a PS file and the extension is only to help the watched folder setup. Then try to print to the Adobe PDF printer and see if the watched folder will do the job. I am not sure and have not tried it on Win7 (I have AA9) but it is an option to try. If it does not work, then it is time to upgrade -- may be a good idea anyway.

PSC 1350 all-in-one not completing print jobs wirelessly with windows 7 64 bit

I have a acer 5542 running windows 7 (64bit), connected wirelessly to an Orange Livebox hub, to which my HP PSC 1350 printer is connected (via USB cable) therefore using the Livebox as a USB printer server. This configuration has worked very well for my 2 XP laptops for the past year or two. I set up the printer on the windows 7 laptop by connecting it directly, via the USB cable, letting windows install it, and download the latest drivers, (although HP say they have no specific 64bit drivers for this printer, but the drivers they have, and that windows downloaded, work fine!) then i changed the port to the livebox ip address.
All this worked fine (as on the xp machines), I printed out a spreadsheet, which worked fine untill it approached the end of the page, then just stopped. I troubleshot the printer which didnt return any sprcifics, Just that the print job had failed, and that it had rectified the problem, then the printer starts reprinting the same document, to the same point, (about 95% complete) and again stalls, and so the cycle continues. I have tried it with various different documents and photos, to the same ends. But if i connect the laptop directly to the printer, via USB, it completes the jobs fine
I have posted on microsoft answers forums, but the one answer i have recieved (re installing everything) did not solve the problem. Although i am not too savvy on computers, i kind of get the feeling it is a spooling issue. (not processing or holding onto the last part of a print file! But its only a feeling!)
any help would be very much appreciated

Hi there,
I understand you're looking for drivers for your PSC 1210 on Windows 7. I will certainly do my best to guide you in this issue.
At this time there are no HP drivers available for this printer for Windows 7. You can still use the printer with Windows 7, you will just have to use the drivers available within Windows 7. That document will walk you through what you need to do in order to get printing again, and will also show you how to scan with this Windows driver.
Hope this helps, have a great day!!

Does the 932C HP printer with 2 sided printing accessory work with window 7 and office word 2010?

(model#C6463A-double side, printing accessory), for the HP 923C printer? Is it real slow printing? Does it flip by itself or do I have to flip it? Also will the printer with the accessory work with windows 7 and office word 2010 to type 4 pages per sheet, like a book? Thanks and please help me!

Hi @Happyforhelp
I suspect your question would be better answered in the HP Enterprise Business Community, as your HP Printer is a commercial model.
My technical expertise is with consumer products and software, I am sure the commercial folks would be happy to help if you re-post your question for them to answer. The HP Enterprise Business Community is an HP Forum designed for the Commercial and Enterprise customers to help one another. I am sure you will find some HP folks there to help too.
Click here to view the Printing and Digital Imaging. When the page opens you will see the option to 'Log in' or 'Register Now' on the right. The commercial forums are separate from the consumer boards, thus you will need to register if you don't already have a commercial account.
You may find the HP Deskjet 930/932c Printer series page helpful while you wait for somebody in the commercial Forum to respond to your inquiry.
Best of luck.

PRINTER DELL 946 with WINDOWS 8 (64)

Hello,
I have a new laptop and I try to install my printer DELL 946 but i can't do this. I don't find the pilote to install it with WINDOWS 8 (64 bits). How can I do? Thank you very much.

hola19,
Is the operating system in English or another language?
First run Delete Print Jobs to remove any stuck print job in the queue.
Disconnect the printer.
Hit the Windows key and the x keys at the same time, programs and features, your printer, uninstall.
Restart your computer. Make sure the printer is removed. Manual Printer Driver Removal
Download the Vista 32-bit drivers for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 32-bit or the Vista 64-bit drivers for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 64-bit. Install the Vista drivers in the Vista Compatibility mode You'll get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at this time(powered on).
Links to the drivers can be found at...
Dell 968 & 968w All-In-One Printer owners thread (W7)
Remember virus programs and firewalls will block communications. If you did not install any, then Windows Defender is the default. Try reading...

Trying to access Mac networked printer from laptop with Windows XP

Hi
I'm stuck: I have printer sharing enabled on my G5, printer is connected to my router; from system pref/print & fax/ my URL for the printer is as follows:
mdns://myprinter+serial#.printer.tcp.local.
Windows wants this format
http://printservername/Printers/sharename/.printer
I've tried any number of permutations, and can't get the printer to show up in the printer wizard. I installed the software/drivers in the PC for the specific printer.
I'm just not a PC user, and can't figure this out!

Find the IP address of the mac in Network Prefs.
Find the Mac's queue name for that printer in Print & Fax > highlight printer > Get Info (Show Info).
On the PC, add new printer, and add the printer exactly as you were trying, filling in IP address for "printserver_name" and queue name for "share_name." Don't need the "/.printer" part. For driver, you'll need to choose a postscript printer model driver, even if that printer isn't a postscript one. The Mac will translate the postscript to the printer's language. Apple Color Laserwriter xx/xx worked well for me.

Hey @wmowafi,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing a slow printing issue on Windows 8.1 when printing to your HP Laserjet P1006 Printer. I would like to work with you today at resolving this issue. Now the only driver available for your product on Windows 8.1 is a hostbased plug and play basic generic driver. Therefore, there is limitations for what can be done for troubleshooting. As you stated, you have already attempted an uninstalled and reinstalled of the driver to no avail. I'm going to suggest some further steps and tools to resolve this issue for you.
Step 1: Uninstall Your Printer:
Disconnect your USB cable
Click the following link: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to access the Microsoft Uninstall Tool.
Once the website opens, select Run Now on the right hand side
Allow the Tool to run.
When prompted choose Uninstall
A list of programs should populate and you're looking for the Laserjet. It may appear as LJ P1000 series. Please select the Laserjet series and Uninstall it.
If the Laserjet doesn't show in the list of programs than your Windows 8.1 computer does not see the Laserjet driver as properly installed.
Step 2: Clear the Temp Files:
Launch your Start screen by right clicking on the Windows icon on the bottom left of your screen or by select the Windows button on your keyboard located to the right of the Ctrl button.
Once the Start screen launches, type the word Run
Click on Run to launch it
In the Run box type %temp% and select OK
Once the Temp folder opens, hold down Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard and everything will highlight in the folder. Select 'Delete' on your keyboard. Don't worry, no files or folders on your actual computer will be removed during this process. If a file is still be used on your computer you will get a pop up to 'skip' the file
Once the Temp folder is emptied of its files, close the window
On your Desktop, right click on the Recycling Bin and left click on 'Empty Recycling Bin'
Restart you computer
Step 3: Reinstall the Laserjet P1006:
Please keep your USB cable disconnected
Click on the following link: HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver
The driver page for your product will now launch
Select Download and allow the download to Run
Once the download is complete an extraction will automatically run and once completed the installer will launch
Run through the step-by-step on screen instructions.
Please do not plug in your USB cable until prompted
Ensure that your USB cable is plugged in from the rear of the printer directly to the computer. Avoid extenders or docking stations as they can cause printing and communication issues.
Test printing!
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your issue. Good luck!

How do I fix an error code 0x000000c1 when install a printer officeject 6500 with windows 7 64bits?

I am having a problem try to restall my printer back onto my Laptop Windows 7 system. I continue to get the completed down load and on the last step the error code comes up with 0x000000c1. Can someone help please?

Sorry that you are having a problem with re-installing the software and drivers for the printer.
How are you uninstalling your product? It may still have old software on the computer, and it's getting confused between the re-install.
Try the link below to perform a L3 uninstall. Then re-install again.
