Reader does not print from Windows 7 Pro 64.

When I try to print on a PC running on Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit I get the message "First install a printer.. etc"
I have two printers installed, one directly attached to the PC, the other through a home network. From the other PC 's no problem. They rum W7 home premium 32 bit. Printing goes fine with other applications on all PC 's.
Who knows the solution?

HI,
Look at Wifi Guy's post on 10-15-2009, titled Solved Photosmart C7280 All in One. Worked for me. Had been running around in circles for the last two weeks. Hope it works for you.
Good luck!

Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7

Adobe Reader does not print more than 5 pages Toshiba E-Studio 232 in Windows 7.
I contacted Microsoft representatives said the problem is the Acrobat Reader once all other applications print without problems.
Please help me!

We have the same problem with our TOSHIBA e-STUDIO6540C. We've tried different versions of adobe reader, even acrobat and many times it will only print some pages of any given document. Did you find a solution? To me it sounds like a toshiba issue but just wondering.

Adobe Reader Does Not Respond in Windows 8

I need to do a simple edit of a pdf. I've been editing pdfs using nothing but the free Adobe reader for years. Now I got a new laptop - 64 bit Windows 8 and I installed the current reader. I need the Adobe reader for other programs I work with. I have noticed that the adobe reader is slow to open and constantly says "not responding." I also cannot get it to respond so that I can fill in a form (i.e., a basic edit), which I could always do. Please tell me how to fix this!

I figured it out! I have Adobe Reader XI on my desktop. I opened it up. I went to Edit/Preferences/Security (Enhanced) and disabled the "Protected Mode at startup." My Adobe pdfs now respond and I can edit them without issue.

Canon i70 does not print from black cartridge

I used to be able to print to my usb Canon i70, but now it does not print from the black cartridge. It prints a mixture of CMY to make a greyish color. Not black. The prints look washed out.
I'm on OSX 10.4.11 (I even upgraded from 10.4.10 to see if it would fix this issue) & on a MacBook Pro.
I've searched through the discussions and have tried many things, including updating to the newest driver that Canon offers on the i70 & have set my Printer Setup Utility.app to open in Rosetta to actually see & load the driver. Tried to re-install the original driver that came on CD, but then, I don't have access to the utility, and all of the print drivers are "gimp-Print v5.0.0-Beta2", and my model number is not offered. I've tried printing using most of the drivers (I just went down the list starting from 1000 to see if ANY of them would work, but got tired of doing it at 7100. I've also installed 2 new cartridges to ensure that it wasn't just the ink that ran out. Nope.
When I print documents that have just black text, it prints with the CMY color & not the black. The tell tale sign is when I try to print a nozzle check pattern & the black ink doesn't show at all. Of course, that's only when I have access to the darn printer utilities.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hehe, yea, looks like the "street value" has gone up since you bought it, Ileen
"est. street price: $249.99†"
Anyway, I'm so darned obsessive - I couldn't stop until it was solved. I spent 2 days on this darn thing, and finally came across some help on removing the print head & soaking it. THE BLACK INK WORKS NOW! Yeah!!!
(For anyone else that has the same problem (and the link above doesn't work), here's how to take the print head off: There's a grey tab at the front of the print head assembly that I had to lift up & it allowed me to remove the print head & soak it in an alcohol solution. (albeit 70% not the recommended 90%)
The test sheet prints well now. A couple little broken lines, but I'm not complaining now. It prints. I'll probably do a couple more "deep" cleaning cycles to try and fix the rest, but I'm tired now & can finally get some sleep without having to think about what the problem is anymore.
Thank you PAHU for helping me to determine it wasn't my OS or dual processor setup. You set me on the right path!!! Thanks Ileen for suggesting cleaning the nozzles too

Hp envy 4500 will not print from windows 8. Thinks it prints, but it doesn't.

Am trying to print from my Toshiba laptop running Windows 8 to my HP Envy 4500 wirelessly. Works fine from my ipad, works fine from my desktop and laptop running Windows 7. I have uninstalled and re-installed the printer driver 5 times. Printer is recognized, has an IP addrress, and will print an internal test page. When I print to it from my Windows 8 machine, the file goes in the queue, gets a port, and then disappears as if it was printed. Nothing prints. Please help, this is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO frustrating.

Hi,
I think you need to remove the queue. Please try:
    hold down the Windows key and press R.
    from the Run window, type services.msc and hit enter.
    if the machine asks for Admin you have to accept this,
    look down to the print spooler service, right click it and select properties
    click on the Stop button,
    browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\printers
    delete the job inside this folder
    reboot the machine

Officejet pro 8000 wireless will not print from windows photo viewer. all other diagnostics ok.

OS is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64. All functions and printing are ok with this unit, excepting for printing through Windows Photo Viewer. Have latest software, drivers, etc., and all HP software and hardware diagnostic tools check out ok.
Checked Windows event log, and get Event 350, PrintService - Document failed to print and was deleted because of corruption in the spooled file. The associated driver is: . Try printing the document again.
There is no additional info on this event listed in the Microsoft TechNet Events and Errors Message Reporting Center
When this happens, all of the lights on the printer flash very rapidly.
To correct, I clear the queue through Explorer, Troubleshoot, and unplug printer to reset.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks

FYI, I got this to work by treating my printer as a wired printer, even though it allegedly has wireless functionality. Luckily, my ohter devices can print to it wirelessly. At least I don't need to replace my printer just yet...

HP LaserJet M1132 MFP does not print from a remote desktop

Hi,
I have a HP LaserJet M1132 MFP (product number CE847A) connected to a PC (MS Windows XP Home Edition + SP3) via USB. There is no problem with the printer. However, when the connection using Remote Desktop (it's set to use local facilities and resources, or in my case, printers, and serial ports) to the server (MS Windows Server 2008 R2), I can not even print a test page from a remote desktop.
Error message: "Print a test page failed. Do you want to display a tool to solve problems with printing to get help?"
But it does not lead to nowhere, as expected is access to the internet, and I have not it from a MS Windows Server 2008 R2.
The same error is for the HP LaserJet M1120n MFP.
I have installed on my PC other printer - old OKI ML321 (needle) connected to a PC using LPT cable and network printer Konica Minolta 1690MF (in another room). In both of these printers can easily print a test page from a remote desktop.
Please help me.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Thank you for your interest.
The situation is a bit different than the picture. Windows Server 2008 R2 is available through the WAN. LAN is plugged into the PC-1, PC-2 and Konica Minolta printer. HP LaserJet M1120n MFP is connected via USB to the PC-1. OKI ML 3320 printer is connected via LPT also to the PC-1. PC-1 has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 also has access to Konica Minolta printer via the LAN. PC-2 is also available for PC-1 HP and OKI.
It seems to me that I found the explanation for the printing problems - some of "my" printers are simply not compatible with Windows Server 2008 R2. I found on the net the following information:

Adobe Reader does not print to HP 1320 (neither Leo nor Tiger)

As the topic says, we cannot print from Adobe Reader (also when the Safari plugin is used) to the HP 1320. Just the light flashes for some time, and then ... nothing.
The HP1320 is not connected via USB, but over a print server and parallel cable ("centronics").
The same problems appear for some G4 with Tiger and some G5 with Leo.
The same problems appear with different versions of Adobe Reader.
No problems with printing the same PDFs with Vorschau ("Preview"), or any other application, only with Adobe Reader.
I also tried lots of different settings in the Reader's printing dialogue window, without any result.
Strange?

We had the same problem with protected mode and the 1050C. Symptoms were when selecting ANSI E (or other sizes) in the print dialog, the preview remained at 8.5 x 11 and as mentioned in earlier posts, the job never spools. This was on a Win7 Pro 64 bit system.
At first I thought it was the driver as Microsoft lists the 1050C as incompatible with Windows 7 (32&64 bit) on their hardware compatibility site. Our print server is Server 2003 and I couldn't get the 64 bit driver installed on the server, so the way I installed the 64 bit driver (in this case) was to use the add printer wizard in control panel, choose add a local printer, create a standard tcp/ip port with the corresponding IP on the print server and then click the 'windows update' button to update the local driver database. I was then presented with both PCL and PS driver choices for the 1050C (chose HP DesignJet 1050C by HP). Whether this is actually the Vista 64 bit driver I don't know, but it's presented in the driver database on Win7 as a certified driver.
Anyhow, I was clued into the application possibly being the issue because I had two identical systems where I knew I had installed the printer in the same way on both systems. One person however, wasn't having the problem. On closer inspection, the user that was plotting successfully was using Acrobat Pro, not reader.
I then remembered having already encountered another problem with protected mode. We had a few people selecting several pdfs at once and then just right-clicking and printing them en masse without opening them. After upgrading to Acrobat X, they could no longer do that. Again, protected mode was the culprit. A whole bunch of acroread processess would stack up but only one of the docs or none of them would print. So remembering this earlier problem & resolution, I turned off protected mode and the issue with the 1050C was resolved. For now, I'm just turning off protected mode as needed on a case by case basis.

HP Desjet 2540 problem Wireless printer, printer is connected but does not print from pc

I wanted to install my HP Deskjet 2540 printer, the installation went quickly, the printer is installed wirelessly.. but I can't print. I can print from my tablet to the printer. But ofcourse I also need to print from my pc > printer. I already used the HP print and scan doctor.
when I click at print document the printer icon at the bottom appaers and says, 0 documents waiting list.
Please can somebody help me.. it's driving me crazy!

Hi 11111981,
It sounds to me like it could be an issue with the driver. What happened when you used the Print and Scan Doctor?
I suspect the best approach is to remove the driver for the printer server properties and then readd the printer using the HP Setup and Software. Use the instructions below to perform these tasks.
1. In the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder
2. Choose ‘Print server properties'.
Win XP – With no printer selected, click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
Windows Vista – With no printer selected, press ‘Alt’ then click ‘File’ then ‘Server Properties’.
Windows 7/8 and 8.1 – Select any printer in the ‘Devices and Printers’ folder and click ‘Print Server properties’ above.
3. Click on the ‘Drivers’ tab at the top of ‘Print server properties’ window
4. Choose the printer you want to uninstall and click ‘Remove’
5. Choose 'Remove driver only"
6. The next screen will give a warning, letting you know that deleting the driver package will remove it from the system. Click ‘Yes’ to say that you are sure you want to do this.
If documents are stuck in the print spooler, you may see an error, cancel any documents pending in the print queue r or try restarting the print spooler, then try to remove the driver from ‘Print server properties’ again. If it still won’t remove the package, restarting the computer should resolve this ‘in use’ error and allow the driver to be removed.
7. Open Start > All Programs > HP folder > Deskjet folder > HP Setup and Software
8. Select "Connect a new printer"
9. Follow the on screen instructions
Please let me know if this resolves the issue you are experiencing. If it does not, please run the Print and Scan Doctor again and see if there are any changes, also, please post back with the results from the Print and Scan Doctor as it may help point me in the right direction.
Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.

HP8615 Does not print in Windows 7

Just installed this printer, network attached. Every diagnostic says it's fine, and scanning works perfectly. I ran HP Print and Scan Doctor with no errors, and test page prints fine.
However, when I try to print a PDF file through Windows print dialog, nothing shows up in the print queue, and nothing prints.
If I try to print a test page through the Printer Properties menu, it report an error, but troubleshooting is not productive--can't identify the problem.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the printer, to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm about ready to return the printer and get my money back.

Hello there @prwilliams38, and welcome to the forums
I have a few suggestions in mind for you, that may help with the printing problem you're having with your new Officejet 8615, on Windows 7.
1. Install Windows Updates (source)
2. Update Adobe:
Open Reader or Acrobat.
Choose Help - Check For Updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
Once installed, restart you computer.
Try to print the PDF again.
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-pdf-printing-acrobat-reader.html
3. Run the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.
4.Restart the Print Spooler:
1. Click Start
2. Type "Services" in the search field.
3. Open SERVICES
4. At the bottom, click "Extended View"
5. Search for Print Spooler
6. Right-click it and choose Properties
7. Select as Automatic in the drop down box, close the Window
8. Right click on Print Spooler and choose "Stop", wait until it stops and then right click again and "Start".
9. Close out of Services and try your print again.
5. Check for Firmware Updates:
Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates
Now test print from Notepad, and from where ever else you wish.
Please let me know the outcome!
I hope this helps you, thanks for posting in the community!
