Smart Web Printing doesn't work in IE9

Smart Web Printing doesn't work in IE9...

IE9 has not yet been released in final form, it is still in Beta.  I do not know if HP has any plans to support the Web Printing application on IE9, but if they do I would not expect them to release anything before the official IE9 release.

  • Firefox updated itself to 3.6.9 and now I can't print anything from an open page, because HP Smart Web Printing doesn't work with this version. What's a replacement extension?

    "An unknown error occurred while printing."

    I have the exact same problem. I updated to 3.6.12 and encountered the "blank page" printing problem. I ended up re installing Firefox 3.0.19. Printing works great. Also Firefox 3.5.15 gave the same blank page printing problem. I also installed "Better privacy" and " Ghostery"at the time of updates. These programs do not run under the 3.0.19 version. Not sure if if they are related to the problem. Good luck and hope a solution to the problem comes about.

  • HP Smart Web Printing is NOT WORKING....UGH!

    When I click the select button nothing happens. Everything freezes. IE stops responding, I can't close, open, right click, left click.....nothing. I tried several times and each time I had to end the task in Task Manager. I want to uninstalling then reinstall it, but I do not know where to find that option so I can do it. Am I running the wrong version for my OS?  Vista Basic Home Premium is my OS and I am trying to run version 4.60 Smart Web Printing. Can someone please help me too?
    Thank you,
    Tam

    HP Smart Web Printing should work with vista and IE 6, 7, or 8.
    To uninstall a program go to the control panel and look for a program maintenence option. Select it and a list of installed programs will appear. Select the one you want to uninstall and go for it. Before trying to install SWP again, check to make sure you have the latest version.

  • Hp smart web printing does not work on firefox. HP says this is not their problem and to contact Mozilla. Is there a plug in available?

    I just bought a new hp printer. the software has a feature called HP web smart printing. The feature works on explorer but not on Firefox. HP says this is not their problem and suggested I contact Mozilla. Is an add on available and if not will one be made available.
    I am using v. 3.6.13. and the printer is HP Officejet 4500.

    HP smart web printing is an application that only works with IE. In spite of what HP have told you, if they want their application to work with Firefox they will need to make a version for Firefox. It is not down to Mozilla to make a version of the HP software for Firefox.

  • HP Smart Print Doesn't work on IE9 & W7 64-bit

    I have searched this forum for hours and have not found an answer to my problem.  Some threads say I need HP BING for HP Smart Print to work.  Another says I do not.  I can't find any download for HP BING.
    I did download HP Smart Print and the icon appears on by browser toolbar.  It seems to be enabled.  But clicking on the icon does nothing.  In an earlier attempt I did get it function partially:  It selected are area of the web page, but then it switched the web to ATT Search site.  I also tried downloading BING from the BING website after installing Smart Print; but that did not solve the problem.
    Why has HP made this so difficult.  From the number of posts it looks like it is a piece of junk.  Does it print only text or the exact copy of the selected area?  All the descriptions are foggy on this.

    I am sorry that you are having an issue with HP Smart Print. I would go to the control panel under Add/Remove programs and uninstall it and then restart the computer. I would then use this link to install and read the frequently asked question on the tool as that will answer some of the questions you had about Smart Print. There is also a video that one can view to see it in use.  
     I use it in Internet Explorer version 8. When I open it up to use it; the tool allows me to adjust the printable area of the web page and then I can go back though and select individual areas to remove. Those areas that will not appear on the printout are encased in an red box outline and the portions that will print are in a green box outline.  I hope that this helps.

  • HP Smart Web Printing and Firefox

    Was able to update IE8 with Smart Web Printing, but not working in Firefox.  Will an update be available for Firefox? 

    I believe an updated version of SWP will be released that'll work with FF 3.x.x. However, there is no release date specified by HP.

  • HP Smart Web Printing 4.60 is incompatible withg Firefox 3.6.12l; what can be done, please?

    My computer (desktop) runs on Windows XP2002 SP3 and Microsoft Works home edition. My new printer HP Photosmart Premium c390g-m has "smart web printing", but this feature is incompatible with my system, I am told. Can anything be done about this, please?

    Talk to HP about when they're going to update that Smart Web Printing application to work with Firefox 3.6+ versions.

  • I do not like the new Smart Print, How can I get the previous Smart Web Print?

    Win 7 home ed.
    I have 3 computers. On one I have Smart Web Print.  It works great and is easy.  When I added the 3rd computer I was unable to get that feature and was given Smart Print.  I hate it.  It takes more steps and thn I don't always what I want and so am wasting paper with it.
    My printer is an HP all in one 8500

    Opening in the sidebar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.<br />
    You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the sidebar (Ctrl+B; Command+B on Mac).<br />
    In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
    Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" is not selected.<br />
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • EDIT button doesn't work in smart web printing.

    My edit button doesn't work at all in smart web printing.  I can clip & print okay but I can't edit my clips at all.  I have vista & ie8.  When I click edit, everything grays out in the smart web window & ie8 stops working. I have to recover my tabs but smart web is still grayed out. I have updated to the newest smart web numerous times but keep having the same problem, Please help!!!!

    Reinstalling iPhoto would be the way to go. Hit F4 on the keyboard, hold your mouse on the iPhoto icon until it starts jiggling, then click the black cross that appears in the top right of it. Then, head to the Mac App Store (click the Apple in the very top left, it's the 4th one down) and then reinstall iPhoto. Deleting the iPhoto app shouldn't delete your iPhoto Library, but if you're worried, you can always make a backup... Time Machine will do it, otherwise - manual!
    Go to Finder. Then in the menu bar along the top, click Go, then Home, then Pictures. In the pictures folder, you'll find the photo library file. Copy it to your desktop or an external disk.
    Hope this helps

  • Anything new with Smart Web Printing working with IE9?

    I've been following posts regarding compatability of Smart Web Printing with IE9. Has there been any progress in this area?

    Does Bing Bar need to be in IE9 32bit rather than 64bit?  I really miss the Smart Web Printing.
    Thanks, Twinkie3
    I have it installed just fine on my x64 Windows 7 system running the 32 bit version of IE9.  I do not remember the details, but I think I had problems downloading the file in IE9 and I downloaded it with Chrome and then ran it and installed it in IE9.

  • How can I get "smart Web Printing" off Firefox - since it doesn't work here??

    When will HP recognize that Firefox is used by a lot of customers??

    Hi,
    If you don't have the Menu Bar displayed, right click just above the address bar and place a tick against Menu Bar.  Now click Tools, click Add-ons,click the Extensions tab, left click Smart Web Printing once to highlight it and then click the Uninstall option.  When done, restart Firefox.

  • " HP Smart Web Printing" not working

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-Bit , IE8, Photosmart C4500 all in one driver software 12.0, Solution Center 13.0, and Smart Web Printing 4.60. I was able to bring up the HPSWP window, but couldn't select the " Select". I finally found this to work.   
    Open" IE"
    Click on "Tools"
    Click on" Manage Add-ons"
    Make sure "Show or hide HPSWP" is enabled &" HPSWP" is enabled
    Close "Manage Add-ons"
    If HPSWP icon doesn't show
    Click on "Tools"
    Click on "Explorer Bars"
    Click on HPSWP
    Your now in business

    hpswp is enabled in addons, everything is right, i click on tools and I can click show or hide hpswp, immediately  IE 8 gives a message that " a problem caused the program to stop working correctly".
    When is was using hpswp with vista I had similiar problems also. I am now using Windows 7 with IE8.
    Would anyone have been expericing the same problem?? Has anyone got a solution???
    Thanks

  • HP Smart Web Printing only works on Explorer not Firefox 4 are you going to update this as I do not want to change back to Explorer.

    I just downloaded the HP Smart Web Printing which is free for those who purchase printers. It provides ability to select and clip or print web pages. It works on Explorer but not Firefox 4. There are many such questions on forums in both HP and Firefox. I love Firefox and would hate to have to go back to Explorer.
    Firefox 4 also does not appear to have "Send to OneNote" either. I used to be able to do this in Firefox 3.
