REPEATED disconnections & flashing buttons: PhotoSmart 2710 & Win7 Ultimate 64-bit

Dear Representative:
I've TRIED numerous of the previously discussed (on this board, among other technical websites Google found outside of HP) suggested techniques to resolve this problem, along with trying a variety of other software fixes on my own. So far NONE has fixed my PhotoSmart 2710's repeated malfunction (I would say this probably happens more than TWO DOZEN times each day).
Problem is I do not know a technical term to describe or associate this type of malfunctioning behaviour. So I have to describe thismalfunctioning behavior in detail. It is important to mention I am using a D-Link wireless router- with one of the four networking outgoing CAT-5 ports connected to the printer with a CAT-5 cable. I am not using the PhotoSmart's wireless since this has caused similar behaviors- even when running Windows XP and 2000 Pro.
Each time this malfunctioning behavior happens: ALL of the buttons (Copy, Scan, Fax, and photo), the light next to the "on" button & the "!" light FLASHES until I press the "on" button to restart the 2710. When this malfunction happens, the 2710's LCD Screen's colorful background disappears, and is replaced with a solid blue background. The top-half of the 2710's LCD screen states "Error:0x887dc92e" and the bottom-half states: "1:??" Also HP's Digital Imaging Monitor (using the Vista 64 version Software Essentials) in the quick-launch bar pops up a mini-window which states "hp 192.168.0.103 is disconnected."
HP's Windows Vista 64 bit software (PhotoSmart Essential version 1 & 3) and Windows 7 64 bit HP Home Network Diagnostic Utility & HP Print Software Patch When Upgrading Vista to Windows 7 have NOT fixed the problem, and Windows 7 Microsoft Update driver for the 2700 series printers will NOT install.
Please advise: (1) What is this type of malfunctioning behavior called?
(2) Are there non-previously mentioned software or techniques you recommend to correct this problem?
Thank you in advance for your time, interest and assistance resolving this problem!
Charles
EDIT: I forgot to mention: (1) 3 computers are connected through the wireless router to the printer.  My t500 ThinkPad (Runs Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit), Tecra M4-S435 (runs Windows XP Pro- Tablet Edition), and ANCIENT Gateway Desktop (Intel Celeron Processor 633MHz, with 512 MB ram) which runs both Windows XP Pro and 2000 Pro.
(2) When I tried to connect my t500 to the PhotoSmart 2710 with HP's XP (NON-64 bit) full-software & driver (Running this program in Windows 7 Ultimate 64's compatibility OS mode for XP SP3), the installation software FOUND the printer through the network automatically OR after I gave the IP address / MAC address, but repeatedly went backward in the setup process- asking if I was connecting to the printer by USB cable OR through the network.

I had a similar problem.
I tried doing a partial reset by removing the power cable holding down # and 3 while plugging in the power cable. A message appears on the screen saying partial reset, but this did not resolve the problem.
I then restarted the printer and opened it to show the ink cartridges. Once they had stopped moving around I removed both ink cartridges before the lights started flashing and the printer then started as normal!
I put the ink cartridges back in restarted the printer and all worked ok.
Not sure if it makes a difference but all cables other than the power cable were unplugged at the time.
Hopefully this will help resolve someone else's problem...

    But in Firefox 8.0 recently updated pages take 4 or 5 times longer to open and when they open is full of errors. Clear the cache only solves by 1 min! lol

  • Is Firefox compatabile with Win7 Ultimate 64 bit OS

    I am currently using Windows 7 Ultimate - a 64 bit OS and want to know if Firefox is compatabile with this.

    Yes, use the 32 bit released version of Firefox that you will get automatically, not the 64 bit version that you would have to search for.

  • Cannot print to PDF in Win7 Ultimate 64-bit

    Firefox locks up when trying to print to Adobe PDF, NitroPDF, FoxIt or XPS. At first I only noticed it occurring when hitting CTRL+V to paste in a file name for an Adobe Acrobat X v10.1.1.33 PDF but now seems to happen nearly every time a page is printed regardless of site.
    I have tried disabling all extensions as well as starting in safemode.
    Manually Ending the Process splwow64.exe in Task Manager clears the hang but afterward no other prints can even be attempted.
    This has been a problem over several versions of Firefox (5 - 7?)

    Can you print just a few pages of the document. If so, you are probably running out of disk space in the TEMP folder. Empty the TEMP folder and try again. It may also be that your document is graphic intensive and reduced resolution would help. Keep in mind that the creation process creates a PS file first and then converts that to a PDF. The storage of the PS file is where the problem arises in many cases - it can become huge!

    I keep getting this error when it reaches approx. 80% installed, and when I hit okay it "rolls back installation files", and quits.

  • HP Photosmart 2710 - driver - Windows 8 load no go help !!!!

    Running in circles trying to load the HP Photosmart 2710 All In One - driver - on the newer Windows 8 Desktop computer.  We are set up with a router & the rest of the laptops work fine.  I've gone to the http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docnam​e=c03460648&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4132&product=420​... 
    All In One HP Print Support Screen and tried to down load the driver through the wizzard & manually.  I have no signs that it is attempting to load. 
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    With the 2710 printing via the USB cable we know the class driver is available on the computer. I want you to have Windows Defender disabled, you can enabled it once the printer is added.
    Remove the USB connection and restart the computer.
    Open Devices and Printers then click Add a printer.
    Add a network, wireless or Bluetooth printer then select your 2710 (if the 2710 does not display in this list the printer is not being seen over the network and will have to be setup on the network again)
    Under Manufacturer select HP then under printers look for and select your 2710 (it may display as 2700)
    Finish the install and try to print.
    Let me know if this helped.

  • Photosmart 2710 prints garbage from Windows 8.1 but prints OK from Windows 7

    Photosmart 2710 connected wirelessly to Verizon FIOS router, prints fine when sent files from Windows 7 clients (also connected wirelessly). When sent print jobs from a Windows 8.1 wireless client, printer produces page after page of single lines of mostly graphics characters, with an occasional page of several lines of what appears to be XML.  
    Printer driver was installed using the standard 'Add printer' button on the Devices and Printers dialog under Control Panel.
    I have downloaded and run the HP Print and Scan Doctor, which found no problems, but its Test Page produced the same erroneous behavior.
    Windows 8.1 on Asus X551 notebook, Intel Celeron 1007U x64 processor, 64-bit OS.

    Hi lt12345,
    I understand that you are looking to use the Photosmart 2710 with Windows 8.1 RT, but are unable to locate a driver. In my attempt to locate a driver I have come up empty handed. It appears that this printer is not supported for printing from Windows RT.

  • Photosmart 2710: Error Message and check cartridge on right.

     I have the Photosmart 2710 all-in-one but I continue to get the following error message:  Remove and check cartridge on right.
    I have remove the black cartridge and check everything. I have cleaned the connectors but still I continue to get this error.

    Start by following the troubleshooting steps shown here.  If cleaning the cartridge and printer contacts does not resolve the issue then check the spring as shown in this page.  If the spring is dislodged (1) you will need to have the printer serviced.  If the spring is dislodged but has not damaged the flex circuitry (2) then some have reported success epoxying the spring back in position.

  • Flash Button insert error

    Hi
    I currently using dreamweaver 8 on a new macbook. When I want
    to insert a flash button to page I get the following message :
    IDS_ERR_UNABLETOCREATEVM. Anyone have any ideas on how I can fix
    this? I've exhausted all avenues!

    If you want to use Flash for navigation, consider this -
    1. Some people don't have Flash installed - what do they do?
    Especially
    consider those people who are browsing from a corporate
    internet where Flash
    is not allowed by the IT staff.
    2. Search engines may not parse Flash links - your site will
    not be
    spidered unless you have redundant HTML links
    3. Screen assistive devices don't parse Flash links - what
    will those users
    do?
    4. DW cannot maintain links within a Flash movie, so if you
    move or rename
    a linked file, your navigation will break - what will you do?
    You will have
    to remake those buttons.
    It's usually a very bad idea for these reasons - and for
    these reasons,
    Adobe has removed Flash buttons and Flash text from the next
    version of
    Dreamweaver.
    Also, since you replied to a very old post, many of us have
    no idea what
    your symptoms are. Care to repeat them?
    But the best solution is to not use Flash in this way.

  • Flash button to detail-page

    I made a button in. This button is part of a repeated region
    in a master-page and should "onClick" go to the detail-page.
    I don't know if it is possible to make a detail-page link to
    a flash-button in Dreamweaver? Or is there a possibility to give
    the detail-link already in Flash?
    This is the detail-link in Dreamweaver:

    FlashVars is one way to pass variables to a Flash movie from

    similar to query strings in the URL. if you pass a var named
    foto, it
    can be accessed with: _level0.foto

    $row_rsPORTFOLIO2['foto_order']; ?>"
    just the var name and its dynamic value:
    foto=<?php echo $row_rsPORTFOLIO2['foto_order']; ?>
    as the path and page name seems to be static it doesn't make
    sense to
    include them in the var; put them in the Flash movie:
    getURL("../portfolio/index.php?"+_level0.foto);

    Dreamweaver 8.0.2 generates that code when you insert a Flash

  • Phone keeps ringing on the caller's end - Is This a Call Waiting and Flash Button Problem?

    I had FIos phone service installed 2 weeks ago.  I am having a sporadic but regularly occurring issue with incoming calls that I think might be related to the Call Waiting and flash button so I am looking for some input.  Before describing the issue here are a couple of things to know:
    - I have my Verizon voice mail service turned off on my account.
    - I have the call waiting function set to off.
    - On my phone handset the Talk and Flash operation is the same button.
    Now here is my issue.  Often but not 100% of the time people are telling me that the phone just rings and rings on their end.  After receiving many complaints since my Fios install that the phone rings and my phone answering machine does not pick up the call I have been calling my home phone number with my cell phone and I have determined the following:
    1.  My home answering machine will pick up the call, however on my cell phone which is the calling end the  phone is still just ringing.
    2.  Sometimes I will press the talk button but there will be dead air but on my cell phone which is the calling end it will still be ringing..  But if I press the Talk/Flash button a couple of times the call completes.
    Since my Talk and Flash button are the same I started to wonder if that is a factor so I repeated scenarios above and found that after pressing the Talk button a couple of times then the call is answered and the phone stops ringing on the caller's end.
    I know that with Call Waiting the caller's end will just keep ringing unless the called end switches over with the Flash button.  So my question is even though I have the Call Waiting function turned off could the combination Talk/Flash button be the reason why the call just rings on the caller's end even though I have Call Waiting turned off?  And f this is the cause then why is it happening and does it mean that I have to buy a new phone that has separate Talk and Flash buttons?
    I hope the above description of my problem makes sense and can be answered.  Thank you

    Without buying a new phone you can test this. Unplug the phone that has the combination button. If its a cordless phone base station with multiple handsets, make sure you unplug those as well. Then use a regular phone plugged in to do test calls (if you dont have one you could maybe borrow one for a couple minutes from a friend, family, or neighbor).
