What happened to the printer driver for the HP Laserjet 1020?

After installing HP Printer Driver Update v1.1.1 for Mac OS X 10.5.3 my HP Laserjet 1020 no longer works. When I sent a print command from any software it seemed to work properly, but nothing printed. The information in printer utility window indicated that the printer was ready and there were no items in the queue.
I removed the printer and attempted to reinstall with the updated driver. However, there is no driver for the 1020 in the driver selection menu, despite the fact that it is listed as one of the drivers included in the update.
Can anyone suggest where I can obtain the appropriate driver?

greg sahli: I followed your suggestion to reset the printing system and re-install the driver update. While there is indeed a Receipt for the 1022 Series pkg, the driver does not appear in the drop down menu. The drivers closest to the 1020 that appear are 1010, 1012, 1015, and 1100. None of these drivers work.
I did find an 80% solution at Macosxhints. I will make do with this until the new OS X system comes out. If it has the 1020 or 1022 driver that works with my printer I would probably buy it. However, if it does not and the fix from Macosxhints doesn't work with Snow Leopard I'll be hard pressed to justify an upgrade until my printer dies.
Anyone interested can find it at the following url, if it is still active (there are no spaces in the url):

  • How can I get a printer driver for the hp psc 2410 photosmart?

    When I tried toadd the printer, there was a message saying that the printer driver for the 2400 series was available, but when I tried to download it, I received an error message saying that I couldn't download it because of a network error.  My Macbook is not on a network at the moment.  How can I get the driver so I can print?

    You can also install this update directly (not through app store):

    If you want us to help more, you will need to give us more detailed info. "It didn't work" leaves me wondering exactly what you've done so far.
    For example, after clicking Add/+ and selecting the printer you want, have you waited for a full minute for the Mac to find the driver
    - OR -
    when it starts searching for driver, have you tried going to the pull-down menu where it says "Use: Auto-select," and choosing "Select Printer Software..." to make a manual selection?

    Firefox (latest and greatest) has been giving me synaptics scroll wheel errors. It has worked fine up until 3 days ago. I have the latest driver for the touch-pad, from synaptics, for my toshiba laptop L505D-S5986. Operating system is Windows 7 (32-Bit). Have tried it on other browsers, and works as it should. The last add-on i installed for Firefox was "Fox Filter" so my kids couldn't accidentally stumble onto sites of immoral tastes. I can't see why that would have any effect, but it was the last update/add-on i installed to the browser, but even then,.......it was working fine for a week and a half afterwards until now. Please help.

    Hello Steve.
    You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    If you detect a faulty add-on, you should contact its author for support. You can also search for alternatives. Site filters are relatively common in the add-ons gallery: [http://addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org].

  • Trouble using the instrument driver for the "hp8753b"

    I am using the instrument driver for the "hp8753b", specifically the "collect and display data" driver.  I manually set my settings to the analyzer and run the VI (i.e. set start frequency to 500 kHZ and stop frequency to 1 GHz), when the VI runs with the "collect and display data" it defaults to start frequency 1 GHz and stop frequency to 3 GHz.  I have tried to modify the driver to only collect data and not to modify any settings on the analyzer but I run into errors.  Any help on this is appreciated.

    Hello,
    I have installed the instrument driver you mention in your post. I am looking at the Collect and Display Data.vi, however I need more information from you to determine why your sweep is defaulting back to 1GHz-3GHz. 
    When you say "I manually set my settings to the analyzer" are you making these settings directly on the analyzer? The Collect and Display Data.vi seems to read all of the settings from the hardware, I did not see any configuration in the VI.  What modifications were you making to the VI and what errors were you getting?
    Can you see the range on the instrument?  If so , can you determine at which point the range defaults back to the higher range?  Running in highlight-execution mode in the VI and running NI-Spy (Start->All Programs->National Instruments->NI-Spy) to perform a capture of the GPIB commands can help to determine at what point the errors are occurring.  It will also let you see if there are any commands being sent which cause the instrument to be reset.

  • Changing the printer cartridges for a HP laserjet 2840

    Having a problem with the wheel not going to the next cartridge...there is a message on the display saying "incorrect yellow" but the yellow cartridge has been taken out and it will not go to the next slot. I am out of warranty and need my printer can anyone help??

    I have a similar problem, maybe its the same for you, im my case the printer broke down because the cyan ink cartridge was not properly placed on the printer. An error of “Incorrect Yellow” was prompted on the printer screen because it was the yellow cartridge that ended up on top because the cyan ink got stuck at the bottom. What I did was I opened the printer and lifted the lock for the ink rotator. It’s located on the right side of the rotator if you were facing the printer. It’s a silverish metal in between the group of gears. I lifted it up using a screw driver. I was able to rotate back to the improperly placed ink cartridge and replace it back. properly. When latched properly the printer worked again. I’ve placed the top cover back and its ready for printing again. I got the instructions on how to open the top cover in the link below

  • HT1338 Why doesn't "Software Update" show me the new driver for the Epson 50C20D (Artisan 800) while It is on the list of available new driver?

    Since I upgraded to mountain lion, my Artisan printer stopped working. After talking to Epson and trying all kind of things, it was determined its definitely a driver problem. The PC ping the printer well but won;t print to it as it think its not connected (when it is as priven by the ping).
    The new driver for Epson 50C20D are on the list of update available drivers on the OS X wen site yet trigering "Software Update" does does detect I need it... Why is that? Thanks

    Thanks Mende1. The printer is there and installed allright. Even shows as "idle" until I try to print to it. The driver version shows 6.36 and I ned to update to 9 which is only avail from the App store... However, the app store don't detect I need it..

  • Question about the Intel driver for the IDE controller

    Greetings to all:
    Lenovo has recently published another driver for the IDE controller and I wonder how many of you that have a T60, T60p, T61 and T61p have been able to actually install it.
    My controller device is:
    Intel(R) 82801GBM/GHM (ICH7-M Family) Serial ATA Storage Controller - 27C4,
    both in XP-SP3 as in Vista SP1, 32bits versions ( see bellow details of my T60p, which has 2 hard drives)
    Interestingly enough the driver on each is v:7.0.0.1020 (2005/05/23) for XP and v:6.0.6001.1800 (2006/06/21) for Vista-B. They are working well as far as I see, but now and several times before, I have tried to update them but they do not install. The message is that I have already the  best driver. I noticed that the label of the controller is not quite exactly spell out in the instruction text file or the .inf, and the one that comes close, is that of the so call ICH7-M family.
    Why is this? There are at least 7 versions discussed in the history.  It it perhaps because the one for the ICH7-M family is always the same? System update does not install them either.
    Forgive my curiosity but why bother publishing if they can not be installed? Or perhaps somebody has. This is not logical.
    Cheers.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    For those who think I can not follow directions.
    First, the driver for the Intel IDE device in a T60p is obviously from Intel. But there are two ways to get it fulfilled.
    Lenovo publish the Intel drivers with perhaps there own twists, refinements and in the absence of clear contrary information, that they are perhaps more fine tuned to the machine. It uses the following inf files to have them install: iaahci.inf and iastor.inf. They are revised whenever Lenovo fell is necessary and eventually published.
    I must assume they are in use if you have a Vista system originally installed by Lenovo and that is why those inf are the ones you find in the updates.
    Mi T60p was purchased 2 years ago with XP-Pro, just before the release of Vista, with the understanding of a free upgrade to Vista-B shall be send when finally released. An Indeed they keep their word and send me a Lenovo branded full version of MS Vista-Business, some 4 months latter (not an image). Rather than upgrade XP-Pro and to avoid the time in limbo and work interruption of the Vista less desirable over XP, I did a successful clean install into a new hard drive, followed by a Lenovo system update, which changed many drivers and installed programs, etc. But as you might imagine, the Intel IDE-SATA driver installed is the one provided by MS (v:6.0.6001.1800 of 2006/06/21), (which uses a different installation file mshdc.inf) and, until proven otherwise, I must assume more generic, since it is for any and all machines, following the standard of the hard drive SATA type.
    Talking to Lenovo support for nearly 1 1/2 hours last week, was at least not good for my blood pressure, while attempting to explain the issue and refuting a collections of nonsense from the support tech. Eventually a supervisor assure me that the driver was the same and that it has not change for a long time, as it is the same even for XP. Well, why bother with updates if that is the case? But I see that there are others IDE drivers species for animals such as Dell, or HP, etc. Thus you must accept that there is a strong case for a Lenovo modified Intel driver and thus the updates. Tech support could not answer such question, nor they were able to install version 8.6.0.1007 (date 2008/12/04) of the driver.
    I fell the machine is working well, but have nothing to compare with (MS Experience Index 4.3). And as usually happened, sometimes you do not appreciate how sick you are, until you get cure. The question remains about the driver been generic and sufficient or specific and optimal.
    Cheers and happy holidays.
