Software driver installation

trying to install a deskjet 2050 special edition using windows 7  driver installer the software installed eventually but only offers one country of use set as the USA instead of offering the full list of countries - is this a mistake surely - even the postcode is accepted as pone from the UK

Hi,
That is expected as the printer does not have a screen and therefore do not have any region option within the printer itself.
Simply select USA and type the Postal Code as 00000 to complete the installation.

  • Software-Driver Installation with Windows 8.1

    After installing the Win8.1 "upgrade", I was able to print with my Photosmart Premium C410a, but several days later when I first attempted to scan, I was unable to. Though there is an HP Printer Control tile on my Start screen, when I launch it, there is an option to install the full-featured software (which used to be functional). When I'm able to download the software--and it's not always successful--I get the splash screen with the option to Install or Exit. When I choose Install, I get an error message telling me that the system cannot find the file specified. Meanwhile, I have what used to be a fully functional all-in-one that only prints!
    Per HP guidance on Facebook, I did a fully uninstall, a clean boot, and then attempted to install, and get the same results.
    Needless to say, I'm quite frustrated with HP.

    Hi kdbeatty_75
    I understand you are unable to install the software. You are getting a message that the file specified can't be found.
    Run the installation again.
    When you get the error find out the file specified not found name.
    Then copy the 7z directory to another folder on the desktop by the name file specified can't find.
    Go to the start up screen, (tiles menu) type
    %temp%. Look for the 7z folder (example 7zs2356) right click on the folder and select copy, close that window, on the desktop, right click and select paste. Right click the folder and select rename, type in the name of the file not found, press the enter key.
    Close out the installation.
    Run the installation from the new folder. Should have one called setup or setup.exe.

  • LaserJet software/driver issues. Print and Scan Doctor doesn't work on scanning function of MFP.

    Upon using the diagnostic utility HPPSdr. exe, only the select an action "Fix Printing" shows up and not the "Fix Scanning" option. Our printer is the LaserJet 3050 connected via usb running under Windows Vista32 on a HP dv8408us laptop. The scanning driver is HP imaging 4.0.4.0. There have been numerous problems with this scanning software/driver package which have been well illustrated on the HP forums. An update is sorely needed. All that HP customers really expect when we buy a product is that we get the functionality that we paid for and that we get support for the software and hardware for a reasonable length of time, I think that 5-7 years after the final production date of the product, at least, is reasonable. In the case of the 3050, the scanning has never worked right since day 1 because the scans are too light with signatures and time stamps showing up poorly. With the pnp driver installed it it almost impossible to scan in receipts, etc. The communication software Toolbox FX is needed to use the scan button on the machine, and since there are so many problems with this package with respect to system resource usage and connectivity, we can't use it and we don't get the walk up use of the scan button that we paid for originally. As Microsoft has updated the Windows OS, HP has failed to keep pace and we lose functionality of our equipment over time.  The diagnostic utilities have supposedly been updated several times and the scanning portion of the MFP still doesn't show. Surely the wide base of installation of this product could justify the expense of some engineering time for an update to the software and drivers. If HP hopes to turn itself around, a commitment needs to be made towards engineering products that really work in the environments that its customers use them, or else HP will merely be regarded as marketing company that is only concerned with selling the next thing without respect to customer retention.

    VisionAiry,
    Thank you for your response,
         There have been problems with the software and drivers for the LaserJet MFP/AIO machines which have been well illustrated by many users on here for several years. What is shocking is the unwillingness of HP to address these issues at an engineering and design level. This is the level in your organization that these problems need to be addressed at, not at the marketing and customer service level. The software/driver package has never really worked right ever since the 3050 - 3392 series was introduced back in 2006. The scanning drivers in the pnp drivers don't work, and never have, because of frequent communication problems. Someone never bothered to check if a blue ink signature would scan. I and several others have reported on these issues. What I have discoverd, through much trial and error, is that the full software package upon installation with only basic drivers installed using the check boxes in the menu, actually installs differently than the pnp driver. Who would have thought this? So now the machine scans OK. 
         My PC really appreciates not having the ToolboxFX installed. ToolBoxFX Error messages and crashes have been well documented on here. This is an application that puts an unnecessary drain on system resources. The only problem is that now the use of the Scan button on the machine is taken away so I don't get the walk up use of the scan button that we paid for in the original design. Why is the scan button function tied to the defective ToolboxFX software? 
         As far as printing goes, after carefully deleting the original print drivers, I use the PCL 5 and PCL6 UPD drivers. They work a lot better than the original print drivers ever did. But what about scanning? The scan driver on the 3050 dates all the way back to 7 2007. Scanning is an integral part of the functioning of most offices nowadays, but it is an afterthought at HP.  Why would a driver, software or diagnostic package only address half of the capabilities of a machine?
         When I went on the vacation recently, I tried to use my PCL 5 and PCL 6 drivers on my relatives 2009 OfficeJet 7310 and it wouldn't work at all. I had to spend 2 hours with multiple failed attempts to install the full 7310 package on my PC. Installation problems and repeated attempts are a constant theme with HP software. The very term Universal Print Driver is misleading because it won't work on many of the HP products out there. The product listing for the UPD, I only recently discovered on here, with help, because it was so buried on the UPD information page. 
         The LaserJet 3050 at $300 from Staples wasn't the most expensive printer out there, but it wasn't the least either. It is actually a pretty nice piece of hardware. I have invested over $1,500 in marked up toner since I've had this machine. HP needs to do better for us. 

  • I'm installing windows 8 64 from iso dvd-I did the partition wiht BCamp 5 and I did the usb with compatibility software-once installation start from dvd, it ask me for some disk, usb or dvd drivers to continue. How I can continue the instalation?

    I'm installing windows 8 64 from iso dvd-I did the partition wiht BCamp 5.
    I did the usb drive with the compatibility software-once installation start from the dvd, it ask me for some disk, usb or dvd drivers to continue.
    How I can continue the instalation? How I can provide those driver to the instalation process?
    Thanks
    Manuel

    You can't get there with GUID/GPT.
    There are tips on making a USB flash device that is bootable.
    You can set aside a small 6GB partition somewhere and put Windows 7 installer there and run it WHILE IN Windows.
    Windows Vista can be upgraded in place to 7 RC.
    You'll need NTFS (30-50GB).
    Windows doesn't support FW for booting.
    You can create a drive that has Master Boot Record.

    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list. Post the messages from the last installation attempt, starting from the time when you launched the Installer or Software Update.

  • Stream 14 Driver installation Issues on Windows 7

    I am wierdly struggling with something I have done countless times before with other laptops - remove Windows 8 and install Windows 7 I've so far disabled Secure Boot, Enabled legacy support, removed all  hard drive partitions and installed Windows 7 which has gone on without issue, the problem is the driver installation. I (as always) download the drivers from: -a) The PC manufacturer if present (not in this case)b) Direct from the hardware vendor I do not use driver download software (trust issues) The first problem driver is the AMD chipset driver, I have downloaded the Catalyst driver many times and yet each install does not actually install any usable drivers (v14.12) which lists the chipset as supported OK, I'll download the broadcom driver for the inbuilt wifi, this was confirmed by the VEN and PID numbers however despite downloading the correct broadcom driver it did not install the wifi device. I thought OK, i'll add a wifi dongle and use that to triple check I have the right chipset driver by using their auto detect feature. However the same problem has occured, I checked the VED and PID number against realteks drivers to find the right one but it will not install this either.  This has, at the moment, left me with a HP Stream 14 with Windows 7 and no drivers and no internet connection to use driver dectection. Note: drivers downloaded and copied onto Stream 14 using my PC.  Any Thoughts?

    Hey, tsumbled upon your thread googling for the same thing. Changed OS from Windows 8.1 to 7. Managed to install USB3 driver, by installing AMD Chipsets drivers from AMD's site, the latest ones should work.  Chipset driver also installs support for HDMI Audio, SM Bus, SATA, PSP. I also had problem installing graphics driver (Radeon R3), the latest Catalyst drivers (15.7) weren't working (the .inf file didn't contain needed DEV_9854). But fortunately the Latest Windows Beta driver (15.6) from AMD did work. Broadcom BCM43142 Wifi driver, I downloaded from HP - http://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?idx=2&swEnvOID=&action=driverDocument&itemLocale=&swLang=&swItemId=ob_133353_1&mode=4 For the rest, Windows 8.1 drivers worked.

  • Do I have to activate AHCI mode on a Mountain Lion after a new SSD drive installation?

    Hello All,
    Do I have to activate AHCI mode on a Mountain Lion after a new SSD drive installation?
    I have a new Corsair GT SSD sata 3 drive on my mack book, I have read on corsair web page that is good tho activate the AHCI and TRIM but I cant find information about how to do this on OS X.
    Thank you all

    That's information for non-Apple hardware. You can activate TRIM using third-party software: TRIM Enabler 2.2. However, most new SSDs should not need TRIM activated on the Mac.

  • SoundBlaster X-Fi Driver Installation Fails After Moving Soundcard to New Slot

    NSoundBlaster X-Fi Driver Installation Fails After Moving Soundcard to New Slot4 I recently moved my X-Fi Elite Pro soundcard to a different PCI slot to accommodate my new large PCIE graphics card.
    Prior to moving the card, my?original SoundBlaster install went fine without any trouble. When I booted up after relocating the card,?it was not detected at all. So I uninstalled my SoundBlaster driver software and?rebooted the computer?thinking that was necessary to clear any hardware configuration settings from the old install. This made no difference. I then discovered my card was not seated properly and corrected it.
    Next I installed the SoundBlaster driver software. The installation proceeded and finished with a request to restart the computer. Once I did, the computer detects my card and starts the hardware installation wizard asking if I want Windows to search online for driver software. It does not recognize the just installed SoundBlaster driver installation. I have a dual boot setup and this happens in both WinXP Pro and Vista 32 Home Premium.
    What's wrong here?

    Forget it folks...couldn't wait for any suggestions so I just cleaned off my hard dri've and reinstalled everything. Works fine.

  • Trouble Detecting Printer During Driver Installation (MP495)

    Upon trying to install the drivers for my Canon MP495, I always get stuck at the same point.  I closed all programs running in the background, pushed the "maintenence" button on the printer until it went to the "G" symbol and then pushed the "color" button.  I run the driver installation program and go through the first copule of windows no problem until it says to disconnect the printer and detect the printer over the wifi.  It says it's searching for a bit and then prompts me to instead plug in the USB to the printer and computer, which I do.  It then sits at the detection screen and never completes it.  Anyone have a similar problem or know  a solution?

    Hi cookieMNster592,
    If you have any antivirus or firewall software on your computer, please temporarily disable them and then attempt to reinstall the printer.  Sometimes these programs can prevent the printer from being detected during installation. If you still experience difficulty, please Contact Us for further assistance.

  • GPIB Instrument Driver Installation

    Hi,
    I'm currently making software that communicates with several different type of GPIB instruments such as power meters, spectrum analyzers, etc.  With these instruments, I make different types of measurements.  Obviously, to run these intruments I download the drivers or make my own.  Now here is my question:  Is there a way to implement a driver installation interface in my software so it could allow any user to easily install drivers for any types of instruments?  What is also tricky is, these drivers have to be used in my code afterwards to get measurement data.  Hope my intentions are clear enough!
    Thanks!!

    I don't understand the relationship between VI Analyzer and IVI. The VI Analyzer is used for checking your code for a variety of style recomendations. IVI is a standard for instrument driver interchangability.
    For the instruments that fall into one of the 8 defined IVI classes, you should use them and IVI class drivers in your LabVIEW program. Right now, those are the only classes and your network analyzer isn't included. You can go to http://www.ivifoundation.org/ and check the status of other classes but I think the only additions on the horizon are AC power supplies and counter/timers. Since IVI has been around for 8 years and that's an average of 1 instrument a year, we'll probably have to wait another 2 years before these classes are released and if you want a network analyser class, you'll probably have to wait several more years for that to get approved.
    Until this happens, you will probably need to provide your own drivers (or wrappers around existing drivers) for instruments that don't fall into existing classes. They may lack some of the true IVI functions such as state caching and simulation but the interchangable part would not be that hard to do if you can define a set of common functions that such an instrument has to provide.

  • SB X-Fi Driver Installation Problem (X-Fi does not install on Asus A8N-VM CSM

    Dear forum members,
    I want to install Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme on my Windows XP x64 Professional computer, but i am not able to succesfully finish 64bit X-Fi driver installation. Whether i use newer x64bit X-Fi beta driver or older official x64bit X-Fi driver, the installation of the driver stops at the end of the installation, when "CTDVINST.DLL" file is being installed and MY COMPUTER REBOOTS instantly. After the reboot, i am being asked to install Soundblaster X-Fi driver again and again. So all the X-Fi software installs well, but when i want to upgrade to x64bit drivers downloaded from Creative web site, the installation process reboots my computer right at the end of it, when "CTDVINST.DLL" file (it seems to be the last file in the driver package) is mentioned.
    Help me please solve this problem, so that i can use my new Soundblaster X-Fi Xtreme on my computer soon.
    Thank you very much.

  • Nokia cable driver installation fail

    I am using Windows Vista Home Premium.
    I have installed Nokia PC Suite 7.1.51.0 and Nokia OVI Suite 2.2.0.245 but I still cannot connect my device using USB cable (i use a CA-101D cable).
    When I connect my phone to the PC a "Found new hardware" window opens and tries to install some drivers and finally fails.
    Even if "drivers for the Nokia DKE-2, DKU-2, CA-42, CA-53, CA-70, and CA-101 cables are now integrated into Nokia PC Suite.", i have tried to install the cable driver separately, but I still encounter the same problem.

    Hi auricii
    Try to clean you pc suite installation, follow guidelines here:
    http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/pc-suites/how-to/nokia-pc-suite-cleaner
    Then install the PC Suite from its CD software that included in the sales package box when you buy it or just download the latest version from pc suite website.
    At last, attach your nokia with its own data cable, I think it also already included in the sales package box or you can use others any compatible micro USB cable data.
    And you are using Vista, I never use it with pc suite but I have inconvenience experience with Vista, when I attach some hardware some time I should manually search driver for them even I have already install the software driver.
    In your case, if driver still required or the installation just fail, update the diver and search it in nokia pc suite installation folder, in some driver folder I think.
    If still no luck, your Vista may need to fix: apply to latest windows update or reinstall windows may necessary the reinstall the pc suite again.
    Thanks and regards

  • Ignore driver installation

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem about how to ignore driver installation during my labview testing.
    My units under test are having different product ID, and the installation driver is using .inf file as attached.
    The problem is, after every single unit is connected to PC, window request to install the driver.
    Is there any way to make the installation can be done once enough for all units under test?
    Example: create a registry file to ignore the driver installation for other units.
    How labview can do it?
    Thanks.

    Hmm. I guess at the moment I will leave it the way it is,
    since these messages have stopped after all users had logged
    in. For sure it will start again after the next image-update
    I make, I will then test with sp4 and if there are any more
    options (digitally signed software i.e.) to be set to
    ignore. I will the report back here, probably with a new
    thread. Thanks for helping so far.
