Trying to install a printer driver

Why would my printer be telling me that the "software to be installed requires administrator or higher level access privilege" when I am the administrator and am using the right password?

  • Trying to install Accurip printer driver on Windows 8 x64

    Hi there,
    I have a driver for an Epson printer 4880 that I am trying to install on Windows 8 x64. The driver works fine on Windows 8 x32 but will not work on x64. 
    When I select the printer it asks me to point it to the driver location, which I select the .inf file for it and it appears to install. However it takes me back to select the printer and continues to go in that continuous loop.
    I have checked the %windir$\inf\setupapi.devl.og and it appears to quit at Driver package failed signature verification.
    Could somebody provide some help as to how I could get this to work?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Which driver did you use? I checked Epson official site, found this type of printer had Windows x64 driver. Please download and install it for test.

  • Problem installing HP Printer driver hplip-3.10.9

    I am trying to install the printer driver for my HP Laserjet p1102w (hplip-3.10.9.run).  The program starts then stops with the error "TabError:  inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentatiion".   I did some research,  but it could not resolve the issue. I think it has something to do with the way python handles tabs?? I did not have any problem installing this on my Fedora 13 desktop. Not sure how to proceed.
    Thanks!

    I have used the suggestions given, and I still can't get the printer driver to load. I did check the /var/log/cups/error-Log and found th following:
    D[08/Nov/2010:18:17:21 -0600] [Job 25] STATE: +connecting-to-device
    D [08/Nov/2010:18:17:21 -0600] [Job 25] STATE: +hplip.plugin-error

    The following was from a Fedora bug report. not sure if it is applicable to my problem

    Description of problem:
    See in error_log from bug #520200 comment #7:
    D [17/Apr/2010:12:34:43 +0530] [Job 29] prnt/hpcups/HPCupsFilter.cpp 413: m_Job
    initialization failed with error = 48STATE: +connecting-to-device
    There is a missing newline at the end of the string output from
    HPCupsFilter.cpp:413.
    In fact, looking around, there are *loads* of newlines missed from dbglog()
    calls.  This messes up STATE and ATTR reporting, as we can see above.
    Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
    hplip-3.10.2-4.fc11

    At this point not sure what to try next

    Hi,
    How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

    I'm having trouble instaling a printer driver for my Canon MG5220. I downloaded the latest printer driver from the Canon website (10.67.1.0) and installed it on my Intel iMac. It said the installation was sucessful, but when I try to add a printer, no go. The printer does'nt show up. I'm fairly new to the Mac, after switching from windows. I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.

    Hold down the option key and select

    from the menu bar. In the window that opens, select
    Hardware ▹ USB
    from the list on the left. On the right you should now see a list of all connected USB devices, as well as some built-in components. Is the device shown?

  • How do I install a printer driver, without the printer?

    You see, I don't want to print anything.
    I am using some CAD software and I use the “create PDF” function of the printer dialogue to make a PDF.  The problem is my drawing is quite large so I need to install a printer driver for a printer that handles larger paper (Epson 1280).  I have the driver, but it refuses to install without the printer being attached to it.

    I didn't post one.

    Thanks
    Lisa

    Hi Lisa,
    proceed as below.
    1)Log in to HP-UX as root (or an other username that controls the printers, and has all the rights to the directories).
    2)Type sam  on the command line and press enter.
    3)Scroll to Printer and Plotters with the vertical scrollbar.
    4)Click twice on Printers and Plotters.
    5)Double click on LP Spooler.
    6)Click twice on Printers and Plotters.
    7)Select Actions on the menu bar and click on Add Remote Printer/Plotter.
    8)For “Printer Name” type any name, “Remote System Name” use the DNS/Host name, or alternatively use the dotted-IP (200.200.200.11). ”Remote Printer Name” should be one of the destination ports on the Printnet (d1prn, d2prn, etc….). Also select Remote Printer is on a BSD System. Press OK and the server will install the printer.
    9)Click on OK.
    10)For a test print type lp –d Printername /etc/protocols.
    And finally  don’t forget to make this printer as the default printer if u have only this.
    Right click on the printer and and say make default.

  • Trying to install new printer Canon imageclass 4880

    Trying to install new printer on Mac Snow Leopard.  Instructions are only for Windows. How do I get started installing the software?

    You'll need to find the drivers. I found the imageclass 4890 OS X 10.6 drivers here, but didn't find 4880 drivers. Check the global Canon web sites.

  • Duplex printing not working after installing HP Printer Driver Update 1.1.1

    Hi,
    our printers (Lexmark T622, HP Laserjet 2200, both equipped with a duplex unit) are managed by printer queues on our Mac OS X Server (10.5.5). Our users (mostly having Mac Books running 10.5.4 or 10.5.5) are printing by sending their jobs to the queues on the Mac OS X Server (via IPP/TCP/IP).
    So far so good.
    It seems that the users who have installed the "HP Printer Driver Update 1.1.1" aren't able to do duplex-printouts anymore. All sheets that leave the printers are printed on one side only - the "Duplex" setting by these clients is just ignored. Users who haven't installed the update yet, don't have the problem (at least it seems to me like this, but I have to admit that I've tested it with only three different Mac Books, yet).
    My questions are:
    - Has anybody else observed this behaviour, yet?
    - Or, even better, does anybody have a solution to it? Reinstalling the printer on an affected client doesn't solve it. That's what I tried already.
    - Is there any possibility to make the printer driver update "undone", which means to do a kind of downgrade from 1.1.1 to 1.1?
    Thank you very much in advance!
    Best regards,
    Steffen

  • The color wheel just keeps spinning and won't allow me to put in my computer password to install a printer driver. How do I stop the rainbow wheel and keep going?

    Why is the rainbow color wheel spinning as I try to install a downloaded printer driver? It won't even let me put in the computer password to begin the install. Help!

    Disconnect the printer. Restart your Mac.
    Then try downloading the drivers.
    If that doesn't help, exactly which printer drivers are you trying to download and from where?
