Unable to install hp Color LaserJet 3600n network printer on new Windows 7 (64bit) PC.

Unable to install hp Color LaserJet 3600n network printer on new Windows 7 (64bit) PC. According to Microsoft Windows Compatibility Center website (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=HP%20Col...) this printer is compatible.
I have tried everythingto no avail. HP will not support and have, very little online resources addressing this particular issue. What should I do?

  • Problem with Lion 10.7.3 with hp laserjet 3600n network  printer

    Hi
    Problem with Lion 10.7.3 with hp laserjet 3600n network  printer
    Guys i am having a mad day with this new OS and some network printer none of them work with new LION,The software for this printer is currently unavaliable. Please contact the printers manufacturer for the latest software, i need the drivers for this, please give a hand with this issue
    Best Regards

    Exactly the same infuriating problem we and many others get with OS X from 10.6 on when Apple dropped Apple Talk.
    Having spent days fighting to get drivers that will run our older laser printers like HP5000, 5100, 2100, 2200 and 4MV, we came up with a simple solution:
    We use an iMac running 10.5.8 as a print server. All the 10.6 upwards Macs on the same network will see and add the printers immediately through the shared older (Apple Talk) iMac.
    Cheapest and simplest option really .... it'sannoying that a brand new Mac can no longer see existing network printers without complex investigation and trying various downloads.
    Answer is simple and cheap if you happen to own a 4 or 5 year old Mac with an OS lower than 10.6 which still has Apple Talk.

  • Installed HP Color Laserjet 3600n software but does not show in model list

    Recently installed the HP software for my Color Laserjet 3600n on my MAc OS X 10.5.5 laptop. The software says it is installed successfully, but when I try to set it up for printing via IP address, it says the ip address is valid, but at the bottom, iwhen I choose select drivers, my model does not show in the list.
    Any thoughts?

    What IP printing protocol did you try, and what does it say to use in the manual?
    Since it's not a postscript printer, I wonder if it uses More Printers > HP IP? (instead of IP printer)

  • HP Color LaserJet 2605dn Network Printing

    Here we go again. I just upgraded the Windows 7 and I am still having the same network printing issues I encountered in Vista.
    1. It doesn't appear that there is a Windows 7 32-bit driver for this printer, am I wrong? I found the drivers page for this printer and it is VERY POORLY written. All I can surmise is that I should install a universal printer driver.
    2. The printer is going OFFLINE constantly. This printer is connected directly to my hub with a network cable. I have two other printers on my network, one is a Brother and another is a Canon. I have never ONCE experienced this issue with their printers. They just work like they are supposed to. Why does this continually happen with this HP printer. The only resolution I have found is to delete the printer and add it back. Every two days delete the printer and add it back, uggghhhh. Give me a break, don't you guys test this stuff before you sell it?
    As you can see I am not a happy camper.

    I'd like to add that the driver provided by HP doesn't allow duplex printing - one of the main reasons I purchased the 2605 printer.  Is there a duplex option available?
    Surely, my 2605 is still within its service life.  I would have expected HP to do a better job in the transistion to Windows 7 than throwing out some awful generic driver...
    Enable the duplexer as described in the Vista/WIndows 7 Duplex Troubleshooting guide as described here.

  • How to install HP Color LaserJet 4600 Networked to Windows 7 (64 bits) ?

    I am running windows 7 64 bit trying to connect to a HP color laser jet 4600. We have tried multiple times to get a Notebook to load the driver. Everything works and asks to print a test page. When you press print test page nothing happens and nothing will print. 
      This is a working printer. It is presently hooked to a network and it works from it. I am trying to make it work from my notebook. I am using a ethernet cable wired directly to the Jetdirict card. 
      Do I need to set up a network. I know the IP of the printer and can not access it from the Notebook.

    This should work for you.  I've installed several printers using a Jet Direct this way:
    Install the printer manually.  Go into Devices and Printers -> Click "Add a printer" then select "add a local printer" and select the option for "Create a new port - Standard TCP/IP Port" and click next.  Type the IP address of the printer into the Hostname/IP Address field then click "next" -  Choose Hewlett Packard Jet Direct from the Standard drop down menu then click next.  You will need to select your printer model/driver from the list and then click next.  

  • Unable to install US Web Coated (SWOP) v2 print profile in Windows 7

    Hi There,
    I am trying to install the CMYK print profile: US Web Coated (SWOP) v2 to use in Adobe Lightroom 4.
    I have downloaded the bundle from the adobe website, extracted the files, right clicked on the file named USWebCoatedSWOP and selected install profile. Yet when I go into lightroom to find the profile it is not there.
    I have downloaded fuji print profiles from another site, but these were not from a bundle and downloaded directly from chrome, which I had no problems with.
    Is there another way to install this profile?
    Thanks in advance

    Thank you. That makes a lot of sense now. Have a nice day.

  • LaserJet 2550n network printer on XP host PC, can't install Windows 7 client laptop

    Have Color LaserJet 2550n network printer connected to XP host PC. I can't install  Windows 7 client laptop for printer. The wireless network is fine, I can access documents back and forth, merely the printer doesn't work and there's no way to download 64bit drivers for this printer from HP. 

    Resolved, not solved. 
    I talked to HP product support. The Officejet Pro 8500 A910 will not install on Windows XP (at least the Home Edition) when networked through a router. It will install through USB. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled it with only USB connected to clean out all the network printer/scanner information. Product support claimed it would install through an ether net cable connected between the printer and computer but this does little good if you need internet access.

  • Color Laserjet 3600n won't print from network

    Our small office has an HP Color Laserjet 3600n that has worked great connected to the network via ethernet cable for many years. When we came in this morning it refused to work after a power outage last weekend, and print jobs would just remained trapped in the print queue with either "printer unavailable" or "printer is busy" messages. No error messages appearred on the printer, and it prints fine from an attached USB cable. I verified the network cables, and am even able to access the printer's web interface a-ok via it's web address. It normally operated on all the default settings, I believe, and I can't figure out what else could be the problem other than a hardware fault. Any clues? We have a bunch of toner cartridges and would hate to have to buy a new unit now.

  • Windows 7 and HP Color LaserJet 3600N

    HP does it best again.  No Windows 7 driver for Color LaserJet 3600n!   You can fill in the blanks...   However, using Windows 7 Professional, I was able to install the XP drivers.   Download the XP software and it will run in a virtual XP session.  I then added the printer as Windows 7 would lead you to do.   The add did not complete correctly--CTRL/ALT/DEL.  However, the printer was added and seems to work.   Maybe HP and Microsoft are pushing the more expansive Windows 7 Professional. 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    XP Virtual session, not familiar with, but sure seems painful and possibly limiting vs HP doing the right thing in the first place.
    FYI ... Over in the Home > Other HP Products and Technologies > Windows® 7 Beta and test forum, the lack of a driver has already been noted in the thread ...
    HP Laserjet Color 3600n Driver for Windows 7
    A few select remarks by various people (including myself) in the thread were ...
    Is this really true and if so, for heaven's sake why?
    Ridiculous.
    stunned by this decision
    This is unbelievable!  We purchased multiple 3600n printers just barely a year ago (September, 2008).  We have made the decision to upgrade our office computers to Windows 7 (from Vista) and now we find out that our practically still new printers are not compatible.  I can assure you that I will NEVER purchase another HP compute or printer... EVER!!!
    I was also a bit surprised.
    I DON'T WANT TO HEAR BS SUPPORT RHETORIC FROM YOU GUYS ... FIX THIS. (a snip from my acidic entry)
    HP has not responded in that forum and I just put in a support email to HP if this is poor choice of words (not supported vs we are working on it) in the
    HP LaserJet, Color LaserJet and LaserJet MFP Products - Product Support for Microsoft Windows 7
    link to see if it is really being worked on. Since they didn't speak up in the forum and its been since 10/5 ... plenty of time to respond, I'm stepping it up and going on the offensive.
    On that Windows 7 printer support page, I counted  9 models (some of which have sub models for networking and duplexing) as not supported. I didn't count the supported ones, but must have been several hundred. What is really laughable is that the lowly LJ 2p is still supported ... aren't those circa 15 years old? Not sure if the 2p is the oldest one on the list, but it is the one I recognized as truly most ancient.
    My 3600n was bought at Staples in 9/2008 and has a manufacture date on 6/2008, its not like I purchased POS laying in someone's warehouse years and got taken by some scammer.
    Plain and simple ... I don't know when HP first started selling the 3600 and when they dropped, but I just don't understand how HP could do this to a  product they actively sold a year ago (and there was a Vista Driver update in 11/2009) yet they support the ancient 2p ... Astonishing !!!!!!!!!!
    HP the support listing (url above) for the 3600 (besides the bad news) and has a link to a trade-in program ... thinking ... oh they recogized the errors of there ways and was going to give me a good deal ... no, it was some generic trade-in page, but I ran my 3600n though the page to see what it was worth ... $25.
    Feel like getting stepped on, the trade in price, that was another one which lead me to this very acidic comment in my original post ... AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED YOUR CUTE HP TOTAL CARE LOGO IS YOU (HP) WITH YOUR HANDS AROUND OUR NECKS JUST SQUEEZING US FOR EVERY RED CENT WE MAKE IN JUST THE DAINTIEST WAYS YOU CAN (BET YOUR MARKETING PEOPLE NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT INTERPRETATION)!
    I'm done being acidic, I'm just spreading the word!

  • Got HP color laserjet 3600n working on sl

    Originally was attempting to print through airport with our HP color laserjet 3600 connected to airport via USB. This was working until we installed snow leopard - then we couldn't print.
    Solution: We have an Airport Extreme G that has 2 ethernet ports, one of which can be used for a printer. We connected the 3600 to the ethernet port on airport and added the printer using the IP address and it works with all of or computers now - some with 10.5 on them and some with 10.6 on them. You can also add the printer using the ethernet port and a bonjour driver.
    Hope this helps someone out there.

    ok... so i found a solution that got the 3600n running. i actually found it in an HP forum (http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/bizsupport/questionanswer.do?threadId= 1018527&admit=-682735245118090418665928353475). the solution was this:
    I had problems with that also. While I found the documentation to be unclear, I did eventually get it to work with a macbook OSX 10.4.8 and a HP color laserjet 3600n connected across a network.
    My first thought was to add it as an "IP printer", after all it's on the network and has an ip, right? That didn't work, it just printed out lots of garbage.
    I then tried several things, including reinstalling the HP software twice. What finally did the trick was to:
    1. go to utilities/printer setup utility
    2. click add - note the printer does not show up
    3. click more printers, and on the window that comes up:
    4. select HP IP Printing - note the printer still does not show up
    5. click manual
    6. enter the ip address for the printer
    7. click connect
    then it automatically sees the printer as a "HP Color LaserJet 3600", adds in in, and I can print to it fine.
    Note: it never, in any of the menus I looked at gave me the option to select a HP 3600n, and it wouldn't see it automatically. So not the expected "just works" experience I was looking for from the Mac, but it works now, which is good, I was begining to fear I had bought the wrong printer.

  • Just installed a HP Color Laserjet CM2320nf MFP printer, at the same time I upgraded to Lion. It prints fine, but I cannot use the scan functions.  I downloaded the most recent driver! Any help would be appreciated.

    Just installed a HP Color Laserjet CM2320nf MFP printer, at the same time I upgraded to Lion. It prints fine, but I cannot use the scan functions.  I downloaded the most recent driver! Any help would be appreciated.

    HP says that the drivers for your all in one print/scanner are downloadable from apple. For the scanner to use preview. image capture or the scan icon from the print driver queue.  I don't know how old your HP is, but I know that the newer Os from apple don't support a lot of older printers. You might be able find a third party driver that could work.

  • How do I install my color laserjet 2605 dn on my windows vista laptop.

    I have been using an HP Color Laserjet 2605 dn on my aging Windows XP computer.  Now that the system is becoming unreliable, I purchased a new HP desktop with Windows 7.  My printer is not compatible with Win7, so my other option is to use it on my HP laptop with Win Vista.
    According to what I have read,  this printer should be Windows Vista compatible.  However, when I try to install the software, I keep getting an error message that I need to be logged on as administrator or I can choose "run as administrator" or something like that.  I followed all those steps, and cannot get past this error message.  And, I AM logged on as administrator.
    What can I do to get this software installed and use the printer again?  It prints wonderfully, does everything I want, including automatic duplex printing.
    Thanks for any help.

    You've got a double whammy there. CS2 is not universal so you're running
    it under rosetta. Additionally, there are still problems with Leopard
    and CS3.
    Keep an eye on the Leopard threads and give serious consideration to
    upgrading.
