Status of HP LaserJet 4V Driver for Windows 7 (64-bit)

Purchased a new HP Pavilion PC after verifying Windows 7 Compatibility of my HP LaserJet 4V Printer.  Microsoft's Windows 7 website said it WAS compatible.  However, after buying the new PC and trying to locate the LaserJet 4V 64-bit driver I find that HP's Website says there is NO DRIVER.  So, for now I can't install or use my LaserJet 4V printer any longer. 
The LaserJet 4V Connection will be via EtherNet Port on my Cisco/Linksys WRT610 Router for sharing between a couple of PCs. 
Does anyone know the real status of the driver or why MS shows the LaserJet 4V is compatible and HP implies by the lack of a driver that it is not?  
Thanks
This question was solved.

OK, try the following:  go to the devices and printers folder, Add a printer, Local printer, create a port, standard TCP/IP port, put in the IP address of the print server, Next, select the HP Laserjet 4V (just before Laserjet 5 in the list.  If it is not in the list click on WIndows Update), Next, Next.

  • Laserjet 1300 Driver for Windows 7 64 Bits

    Come on HP - I need the driver for Windows 7 64 bits for my HP Laserjet 1300 series.
    I installed a generic driver which works OK for some applications.
    But when using my Stenograph application the box that should be printed
    around the text on the printed page is NOT correct: I only see the top and left side of the box shifted by 3 inches.

    Thanks very much for replying to my message. I got PCL 5 from both places -- from the Windows Update list and from the HP website. If it helps, at the hp website it is at:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/S​oftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=238322&p​...
    You can get to it through www.hp.com/go/windows7, where I also got PCL6.
    I have a lenovo thinkpad x300, and connect to the LJ1300 with a USB. I installed PCL5, for example, and tried to print a simple text. But my printer does not respond (the light doesn't start to blink), and when I use the Print function, it gives me a message that indicates "error, 1 document".
    I will be off of my printer for a couple of weeks but want to be up and running soon. I had hoped installation of Windows 7 wouldn't be dramatic.
    Thanks once again.
    The links you cite take you to a page where there are links to:
    HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL5 x64
    HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL6 x64
    HP Universal Print Driver for Windows PostScript x64
    As the name suggests, those drivers are intended to substitute for the "real" driver that is specific to a given printer. They primarily are intended for use where a network administrator is responsible for a variety of HP printers on a single network. See http://h20338.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/cache/343033-0-0-2​25-121.html  Personally, I found the "Universal Print Driver" impossible to install and configure.  Congratulations on installing it -- even if it doesn't work.
    On the same page that you linked to, there is a link under the heading "Driver" that leads to "Product Support for Windows 7."  That link basically leads nowhere useful for Windows 7.  The conclusion that you're led to by these pages is that the only choice for Windows 7 is one of the Universal Print Drivers.   This conclusion is erroneous.
    I can't reconstruct how I found it, but if you go to the link in my previous post (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/D​ocument.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=120&prodSeriesId=​...) you'll get to an HP support page for using HP printers with Win 7.  Essentially, this page divides various HP printers into 6 categories and describes your options for each category:
    HP and Windows 7 printer driver options available for the selected product
    HP print driver available
    Windows 7 print driver available
    HP LaserJet AIO/MFP product options
    Product will be supported
    Selected product is not supported in Windows 7
    The Laserjet 1300 is listed as a Category 3, which means that a driver specific to this model is built-in to Windows 7.  This is not the Universal Print Driver.   The catch is that the driver for the Laserjet 1300 isn't available in Windows 7 out-of-the-box (at least, that's what happened in my installation).  It only shows up if you permit Windows Update to update the list of built-in printer drivers.
    I suggest that you completely uninstall your LJ1300.  Disconnect the LJ1300. Then, right click on its icon in Printers and Devices and select "Remove Device."  Then click on any other printer listed and then click on "Print server properties" in the menu bar.  Click on the Drivers tab and Remove the Universal Print Driver (or whatever else looks like it's related to the LJ1300.  Uninstall anything to do with the Universal Print Driver from Control Panel >  Programs > Uninstall a program.
    Now, you can take one of two approaches:
    What I did was just plug the printer in and turn it on.  If you've managed at some point to update the list of built-in printers, Windows should just identify and install the printer like any other USB device.  Otherwise, you should get a popup asking you to give permission to search the web for a driver. Grant the permission.  Windows will find the correct driver and install the printer.
    Alternatively, go to Devices and Printers and start the Add Printer wizard.  Tell it you're installing a local printer to LPT1.  You'll get to the list of built-in printer drivers.  Select HP in the left pane and scroll through the right pane.  If you find the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300, cancel the process and then add the printer as in the paragraph above.  If you don't find an entry for the Laserjet 1300, click the Windows Update button.  After a couple of minutes, the process will be finished, and now when you look there will be the PCL5 driver for the Laserjet 1300.  Cancel the process and add the printer as in the paragraph above.
    Good luck.

  • Laserjet M1522nf driver for Windows 7 64-bit operating system

    My operating system recognizes the printer on the network for printing, but not for scanning or faxing.  I would like to install the correct driver, but there are five (5) different drivers listed without any explanation of the difference between them.  What is the correct driver to install?  Any other recommendations?

    Hi,
    Oracle WebLogic Server Downloads can be found at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/wls_main.html
    I believe Oracle WebLogic Server is not certified yet on Windows 7 64-bit, and this explains why you cannot find installation files to download. More details about the product certification can be found at:

  • HP Officejet 4255 driver for Windows 7, 32 bit. Not in pull up list or OS(can't update)

    HP Officejet 4255 driver for Windows 7, 32 bit.
    Driver is not in pull up list and not in OS(can't update OS basic). Almost all series are listed but 4200 series is missing. 
    After upgrade to Windows 7, it has become a problem. Some solution should be given.
    Can someone help?

    Ok, I found in the Net the drive 7uw706ww.zip, which is Version 6.1.4.2, while the updated version is 6.1.10.5 (7UW708WW).
    I tried again the GPS, and it wasn't working.
    Anyway, before downgrading, I tried to reinstall the new driver, downloading and installing the .exe instead going through System Update.
    Result: now GPS is working (same place, same conditions, just 5 minutes later)!
    Don't know where the difference is...

  • HP Photosmart 325 driver for Windows 7, 64 bit

    I cannot find a driver for Windows 7, 64 bit to run the Photosmart 325 printer. Does one exist? Is there a work around? (The driver for Windows 7, 32 bit does not work)

    Use the Photosmart 320 series driver available through Windows Update.

  • X301 and Vodafone and AT&T Wireless WAN (HSPA) Driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)

    Ok, I (Lenovo) did it again.
    System Update showed me this update: "Vodafone and AT&T Wireless WAN (HSPA) Driver for Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit)".
    As I'm using Vodafone and I had a AT&T driver, I decided to update.
    The result is, that now the GPS doesn't work.
    Yes, I'm in a place where the GPS signal is present (my house, with the previous driver I was able to get 6/7 satellites).
    What happens? Lenovo TV GPS stays there trying to fix the satellites, but nothing happens. I can't recover the system to a previous state, as I updated Flash player too, and Windows only show me the possibility to roll back this update.
    So, apart advicing everyone not to update, I kindky ask:
    - where can I found the previous driver? I searched the web without success...
    - why does Lenovo deploy driver which can cause problems (I just had one updating the BT driver last week! .msi installer problem, error 1935...)?
    Thanks to everyone

    Hello, I need Toshiba Satellite A210-16G Mass Storage Controller driver for Windows Vista 32-bit. If you have setup file, please redirect me, if you have any other file, please explain me where to install it.

    If I were you I would take look to the Drivers Download site of the Toshiba mainpage, because there you can find everything you need.
    The mass storage controller can either be the HDD controller or the SD-card controller. I would download both of them.

  • Installing HP Laser Jet 5 driver for Windows 7 64-bit or 32-bit

    I had an issue with installing an HP LaserJet 5 printer to a WIndows 7 64-bit box.  I thought I would post my experience and solution to this problem so that others can quickly resolve similar issues.
    If you connect as I did with a Parallel Printer-to-USB cable, then Win-7 searches for drivers automatically. But none werre found. However, using "Add Printer" via Control Panel/View Devices and Printers/Printers and Faxes, then left click starts the process for finding and installing the HP driver needed.
    No need as others have suggested to go to HP Support Center to install their Universal Printing PCL 5 driver found here:
    www1.hp.com/...Universal Print Driver for Windows PCL5/
    Hope this helps speed you on your way!

    Thanks for sharing your tip RatioCynic!  That's what this forum is all about!
    Happy printing!
