Universal print drivers are all missing from HP websites

I see the drivers website has undergone a transition, and the new site is terrible.  Some printers that are PS capable no longer have links for PS drivers.  The worst issue though, is the universal drivers are completely missing and unavailable, and yet they are now the most important driver as HP has ceased listing individual drivers for so many models.  All links go to the PARK, and there are no driver downloads anymore.  Even the tutorial video for using PARK includes getting drivers from links that no longer exist on that site.
WE NEED THESE DRIVERS BACK IMMEDIATELY OR WE CAN'T USE YOUR PRINTERS HP!!

Hi there,
Thanks for your patience with me and for the additional information.  That was really helpful!  I went to the site you noted (www.hp.com/go/upd) and clicked on Download Software.  I selected Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit) from the drop-down.
I went to the next page, scrolled down to the Downloads section and I see PCL5 , PCL6, and PostScript (PS)  drivers available for download.  I clicked on the blue Download button, clicked Run, and got a WinZip Self-extractor. So the downloads appear to be working.  These drivers are for Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 2012, Windows 7.
I feel like I've missed something here as PCL drivers aren't my specialty (as you may have guessed) - but the downloads do appear to be there.  Can you take a look and let me know?
Thanks!
Tara

  • My entries for 2015 are all missing from my calendar - how do I get them back?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    If I browse the files using finder (and Show Package Contents) they're all divided into the different folders they were in originally and the way I'd like them to be split into events, so I don't really understand. Any hints?
    Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the existing file.
    or try
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.

  • I restored my iPad 2 from the iTunes backup but my music, audio books and iBooks are all missing.

    I restored my iPad 2 from the iTunes backup but my music, audio books and iBooks are all missing. It seems only the Apps were restored and settings. Anyone else had this problem?

    Oh and the bizarre thing was that when I opened iBooks for the first time after the restore it showed all the books in the open collection and then they vanished in front of my eyes!

  • Why are Albums missing from the Albums "tab" in Photos app?

    I just upgraded to the new version of OS X with the new Photos app.  All of my photos transferred over to the new app correctly, but not all of my Albums are showing up in the new Albums "tab" in the Photos app. 
    For instance, my "Honeymoon" album does not show up on the Albums "tab," but when I search for in the Photos app it will appear. 
    How do I get all of my Albums to show up on this tab?
    Additionally, does anyone know how to change the "timestamp" on photos?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Terence,
    I appreciate the reply, but that did not solve my issue.  Several of my albums are still "missing" from the list, even though I can find them when I search:

  • Multiple email accounts but they are all sending from same account.

    Set up with multiple email accounts but they are all sending from same account. I have checked account preferences and under composing they are to come from account of selected mailbox but this is not happening! Suggestions?

    They are all in the same folder and it says all images are there, but it is only showing 1 card's images at a time. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    This is kind of confusing, on the one hand you say "it says all images are there" and then you directly contradict this by saying "it is only showing 1 card's images at a time".
    Could you explain in a lot more detail what you see (and don't say "it", say exactly what part of Lightroom or what part of your operating system you are looking at), or show us a screen capture?

  • Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    Question about garageband: I have 3 short original songs that i wanted to merge ala "Bohemian Rhapsody". Is that possible in garageband? their tempos are all different from each other. Advance thanks.

    First of all, GarageBand iOS allows for only one tempo and there is no Merge Song feature.
    What you can do.
    Switch between the songs and copy-paste the individual Tracks. You can also Merge Tracks if you run into the 8 Track limitation.
    Hope that helps

  • HT4906 Erase the disk for more space but ilife software are all missing!!!

    Hey, I just erase the disk for more space, when I reinstall mountain lion, the I life software are all missing! And in app store it shows up that I need to buy them! So ridiculous !!! Why I can use them before

    What's ridiculous? You erased the apps. They're not part of the OS. So, reinstall them for wherever their original source was.

  • HT201068 why all videos from Chinese websites cannot be opened after the update??

    why all videos from Chinese websites cannot be opened after the Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2 v1.1??

    That's not a thing that can happen.  Your problem with videos is unrelated to the Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2 v1.1.
    There were several OS updates recently as well, which could have affected video playback though.
    What application do you use to play the videos?
    Are the videos streaming from the internet or are they downloaded first and then played?
    what format are the videos?  what file extension?

  • Universal Print Drivers

    I am a volunteer completing documentation for eligible individuals and to do this, I must go into various institutions, offices, etc.  When I go, I do not have a mobile printer, so I depend on the use of the printer in those locations which is usually HP.  While doing this, it is quite a hassle trying to find and download the drivers in advance since most places do not have the internet available for me to access, and then takes a lot of time after I arrive to install and get the printer working.  I usually carry a printer cable - USB to do this.  I was told about the HP Universal Print Driver and noticed that for my operating system (Windows XP), there are three drivers.  Do I download all three of them, or one?  There is the PCL 5, PCL 6 and the Postscript driver.  As well, there is a plug and play driver.I am totally confused and cannot locate any guidance on the differences of the Universal Print Driver.  Does anyone know what I should do in this situation?  I'm wondering if the plug and play driver is also a Unviersal Print Driver?

    The following link has a discussion of the tradeoffs between the PCL5, PCL6 and PS driver.  I would suspect the PCL5 driver would be the most suitable for printing to HP laser printers.  If you also use HP inkjet printers the Deskjet 990 drivers are compatible with many of the recent inkjet models (including AIO units) for printing.
    The following is HP's page for comparisons between the various drivers.

  • HP 2420dn printer - Tray 3 is missing from new Snow Leopard Driver

    I am a physician and have plain paper in tray 2 and NYS preprinted prescriptions in tray 3. This was working fine with leopard. After the upgrade I cannot find tray 3. Tray 3 is enabled on the printer configuration and it shows up on the Web configuration tray correctly.
    When I go to:
    Preferences/Options% Supplies/Driver
    There is a check box for duplex unit
    fit to page drop down menu
    total printer memory drop down menu
    But NO check box for tray 3.
    I have other HP laserjet printers in my medical office 2340 etc and they are all working fine with tray 3.
    I upgrated to Snow Leopard correctly using a CD and then did a software update that contained new printer drivers.
    I have rebooted the printer, my computer.
    What is going on? Is the new printer driver for HP 2420 dn defective?
    Is there a work around. Generic printer drivers also don't have this extra tray 3
    HELP!....please

    I have found a work-around. The printer driver for 2340 works just fine! I don't know if I am doing any harm by using the wrong printer driver. Clearly, there is a bug that needs to be fixed in the 2420dn driver for Snow Leopard

  • Cannot select output tray on a stapler stacker using universal print drivers

    With universal print derivers 5.2, we cannot select output tray for print job on a stapler stacker.  All jobs are set to automatic output and only uses the lower tray, not other trays.

    Hi drlake,
    I understand that you are having issues with printing specialty paper/labels after updating your computer. It would be best if you posted your question on the HP Laser jet Commercial Site <here>.
    This would be the best place to find your answer.
    Thank you

  • I have had to "re-instate" "Mail" on my 5yr old Macbook Pro after it got "lost"during an s/w upgrade to Snow Leopard v10.6.8. In reinstated version all my Email archive folders are now missing from the screen. How/where do I find them ??

    I recently purchased Snow Leopard v10.6.3 in order to upgrade the OSX platform on my 5 year old Macbook Pro. That loaded without trouble. Then I needed to do an online upgrade from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 (via 10.6.4) and there the trouble commenced !! Somewhere along the way, the "Mail" application simply disappeared! On advice from Apple telephone support, I did a "selective" reinstall of "Mail" from the Snow Leopard disk, but the version of Mail it loaded (v4.5) was wrong for use with OSX v10.6.8 and so it kept asking for the 'latest" version (v4.6) and just would not work. I tried a "Fix" download provided on the Apple site, that didn't work.
    I spent 2 hours at the Genius Bar of my local Apple Store and they finally found a fix, after some difficulty. Apparently there had been a programming error somewhere in one of the Apple update downloads.
    So now I have "Mail" back - but the Mailbox folders now not as they were before - particularly they do not contain my archive Folders that I had been using to store certain historic emails.
    I think the folder structure on "Mail" is now identical to that on my "BT Yahoo" screen - whereas before they had been different. My local Apple Store told me that it was practice now to synchronise the "Mail" screen and (for example) the BT Yahoo screen to be identical. This is well and good going forward - but does not help me with access to my historic "email filing system" !!
    Anyone help me find those missing folders ??  They must be stored somewhere, but where ??!!
    Cheers

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Why are descriptions missing from my tv downloads now?

    In the past 2-3 weeks my downloads from season passes are no longer including the episode descriptions. This is occurring on multiple season passes. I am not aware of having made any choices which would keep these from being included. Is this a widespread issue? Is there a fix? Thanks!

    Hi,
    A lot of people are reporting this problem, including me. Do not bother to re-download, I did and it didn't help. As a matter of fact, the Season Pass(es) I'm having problems with, some had descriptions, but when the iTunes Store reflagged ALL the episodes, instead of just the two that were missing descriptions, the descriptions I did have disappeared. I noticed that anything downloaded before 10/4/2012 was OK. What was different on October 4? Apple released a "supplemental update" for those using 10.7 and 10.8. I don't know it to be the cause, but on my system THAT is the only change that occurred. Strange coincidence.
    All I can suggest is that you keep at Apple and iTunes; its their fault, not yours. You should get what you paid for.
    Good luck.
